The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 285 Not only drink soup, but also eat meat

In the picture, because of being hit by an invisible high-speed kinetic object, the entire space station began to rotate and shatter, and then the shattered things hit other places, causing a domino-like disintegration effect.

Meanwhile, the female astronaut, bound to a long robotic arm, spun and soared through the disintegrating debris.

The two external speakers amplify the strong piano music with a sense of urgency, as well as people's cries for help and gasps to the extreme.

There is no doubt that this brief audio-visual feast that took place on a [-]-inch LCD TV in an ordinary Philadelphian family has a strong attraction.

At least the two high school students, Daniel and George, hadn't seen such a scene in the film and television works they had watched before, and they were deeply attracted.

Even the mother came to the living room startled by the sudden loud sound from the speaker, and was distracted by the TV when she blurted out the eldest son's name.

"Wow! amazing!"

The picture was accompanied by the lonely and still tumbling astronaut figure into the darkness. After sighing, George quickly picked up his mobile phone and entered the "Science Fiction House", ready to share the surprise of this trailer with other fans, or take a look at What are other fans' viewing experiences and comments?

"So it's a movie trailer? "Gravity"...is it a space movie? It's very interesting. Why are the two astronauts Asian? And they don't speak English. Is it a Japanese movie?"

"It's a Huaguo movie!" George did not forget to answer his brother's doubts while browsing "Science Fiction House": "It's Johnson Chen's new movie! I don't know when it will be released, I'll check..."

"Johnson Chen?" Daniel immediately reflected after George showed his expression that he wanted to give his brother a good science: "I have an impression, isn't it the director you like? "Fatal Identity"! Right? And that one What is the name of the DVD you bought? "Comet"? I have to say that this director is really good at playing tricks."

"It's hard to imagine that you and I are brothers of the same father and mother. Your brain is only the size of a cashew nut. Of course you can't understand..."

"Georgie?" The mother on the side recovered and stopped George's personal attack on his brother in time: "Speak up! Dan! Sit down."

George made a grimace: "I forgot to tell you, he is also the screenwriter of "Black Mirror"!"

"What?" Daniel looked surprised and resentful: "I hate him!"

In the past half a month, "Black Mirror" has suddenly become popular in the school. Students, including girls, are discussing the plot of "Black Mirror". It's just a social topic.

The social interaction of high school students also needs topics to be substituted, or it is a scandal of a certain star, or a new song of a certain singer, or a certain film and television drama, or a game of NFL, MLB, or NBA-of course this Usually a topic for boys.

And "Black Mirror" is labeled as "cool" by young people because of its "black, deep and cruel" style, heavy-mouthed and weird plot, and creative settings. Compared with other TV dramas, there are many differences. became a hot topic on social media.

And Daniel also started to watch this TV series because of this, but he really couldn't get the points of this TV series. He has always been not very interested in this type of subject matter.

"It seems to be released in summer!" George found out the inaccurate release date: "I must watch it then!"

"Add me a..."

George sneered: "...don't you hate him?"

"This movie might suit my taste, you know I've always liked this kind of special effects blockbuster." Daniel didn't feel ashamed, he never cared about his own face in front of his younger brother, and added: "The two of us are here Time to watch together."

"? The two of us?" George: "I thought you would invite Kunna? I know she is also a fan of Chen, and I know you made up the complete episodes of "Black Mirror" for her. When you watched "Fatal Identity" last time, you Those who say that they will not watch movies with me in the future think that the movies I like are very boring.”

Daniel said innocently: "I was just angry. We are brothers. If you are angry because I criticized "Fatal Identity" for being mysterious and boring, I would like to apologize. Besides, didn't mom watch the trailer just now? Believe me, dad will too. Those who like this movie, he and I have similar hobbies, then we can go to the cinema to watch it together."

"Ha! I see!" George suddenly realized: "You are saving money to buy football tickets!"

"Fine!" Daniel blushed slightly: "When I save enough money to buy two tickets, let's go to the head office together? Isn't this taking advantage of you?"

"make a deal!"

"However, if you are still so nerdy in the stands at that time, you may be regarded as a fan of the opponent by others. Rugby is not watching a movie. You have to show the exclamation and screaming you watched "Fatal Identity"."

"...I'm not rude."

……

Whether it's the response to the last episode of "Black Mirror" or the full release of the trailer for "Gravity" in North America, Chen Jingxing doesn't have time to browse the Internet for rainbow farts that can make him feel happy.

"Jing Xing? It's time to go! The time is coming, sometimes I'm really confused whether you are a girl or me."

Chen Jingxing kept posing in front of the mirror, the light blue shirt, the fabric was slightly reflective, it looked very high-end, the cuffs had been fixed with needles, and the tie with thin gold stripes, even Chen Jingxing felt that he was shining when he looked at himself .

Tang Xin held back a smile and looked at Chen Jingxing's lonely self-admiration: "Are you still stinky? It's almost late."

"Don't you think he's handsome?" Chen Jingxing was a little puzzled, "It's been a long time since I've dressed so formally, even I was almost blinded."

"How long has it been? Last Golden Rooster Awards, you were dressed very formally?" Tang Xin held up her skirt and took a small step to stretch his tie: "I have never worn such a formal dress. Going down the stairs is hard."

Tang Xin is wearing a slim mermaid long evening dress, this kind of dress can quite set off the figure, plus the Chanel handbag, necklace, earrings, makeup and hair in her hands, even though the two of them are already considered "old couple" Yes, Chen Jingxing also felt very surprised.

But it is true that this kind of fishtail skirt not only cannot move the legs, but also needs to hold the skirt by hand, otherwise it will scratch the ground.

"I feel that our wedding day was not so grand." Chen Jingxing admired Tang Xin's figure for a while, and said with a sigh.

It is true that Chen Jingxing hasn't dressed so formally for a long time. Except for the awards and premieres of "Fatal Identity", his status and influence have risen rapidly, especially after DreamWorks has achieved leapfrog development through financing. As a director and the owner of a film company, he has the immunity of "dress casually" on many occasions.

Even for roadshow promotions and premieres, he doesn't need to dress formally, sometimes he doesn't need to wear a suit, jeans, T-shirt or shirt, as long as it's decent, it doesn't matter.

Tang Xin comforted him with a smile: "Isn't this involving hundreds of millions of dollars in the box office? No matter how important it is, it can't be overemphasized."

Chen Jingxing was still apologetic: "I just think that the two of us had a good trip and wedding, but we still have to be cut off by work..."

Tang Xin rolled her eyes: "What does it mean to be cut off by a job? Please, with a profit of tens of millions of dollars, no wedding is worth mentioning in front of it."

"..." Chen Jingxing felt that he was being hypocritical.

"Are you the boss of DreamWorks, or am I the boss of DreamWorks?" Tang Xin looked resentful.

"Are you the proprietress of DreamWorks?"

"Okay, don't be poor, it's almost late!"

Chen Jingxing helped her carry the handbag, while helping Tang Xin to go out: "It's okay, I'm the protagonist, and the protagonist is coming to the finale. Modesty is not popular here among Yankees. The more you put on a figure, the less they dare to underestimate you." .”

It was a dinner party that made Chen Jingxing and Tang Xin treat it carefully, and even sacrificed their leisure time in New Zealand to fly to Los Angeles.

Moreover, it was an invitation to hold a dinner in the name of Chen Jingxing.

Mainly for "Gravity" and the films that DreamWorks will enter the North American market after.

Firefly, the Hollywood distribution company controlled by DreamWorks, basically announced the release of "Gravity" in China at the same time.

Firefly engages in publicity, and Universal takes the upper-level route.

The domestic schedule of "Gravity" is preliminarily set in mid-July, but there is no exact release time in the North American market. This is something that DreamWorks executives and Chen Jingxing have been paying close attention to.

Obviously, the scale of "Gravity" has completely surpassed Chen Jingxing's previous films. According to Firefly and Universal's publicity plan, the box office estimate for this film is completely the box office expectation of an A-level blockbuster, which is at least 1 million or more. The box office is sprinting towards 1.5 million.

Hollywood looks like a free market, but it is actually a highly monopolized film industry.

Not only are movie theaters highly monopolized by the three major cinema chains, but the film production industry is also highly monopolized by a few major companies, and there is even a trend of increasing concentration, including the brokerage industry, which is also monopolized by five major companies.

Chen Jingxing's previous films entered the North American market. First of all, they were basically outright copyrights. They were distributed by major local distribution companies, and the box office volume was not large, all of which were in the tens of millions of dollars.

Although the subsequent "Source Code" did not sell out the copyright, it was also released together with Universal, and the initial box office was estimated to be in the tens of millions of dollars. In the end, the box office reached [-] million U.S. dollars, which not only exceeded the media's expectations, but also exceeded the expectations of the media. Contrary to the expectations of other Hollywood companies.

Obviously, Dreamworks, or Chen Jingxing's movies have reached the point where the big factories can't ignore them.

Not to mention that once the trailer of "Gravity" came out, the content revealed in it, and the overwhelming buying of advertisements, this posture seems to be at the level of a local Hollywood blockbuster. Dreamworks, the Huaguo film company, will continue to let it go.

It's nothing to drink soup, not only Huaguo, Japan, South Korea and Europe can come to drink soup, the world's largest ticket warehouse can accommodate soup, and the pastures of the big factories in Los Angeles are all over the world.

But it seems that this Huaguo person and Huaguo company not only want to come to our place to drink soup, he also wants to eat meat.
