Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Zhang Xiao replied: "To be precise, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" should be a commercial film full of literary and artistic colors. The investment will not be too large, at most 1.5 million U.S. dollars. As for the global box office expectations, of course the more The more the better!"

"Can you say a specific number?" The reporter asked.

Zhang Xiao thought for a while and said, "20 billion US dollars!"

"If the box office can reach $20 billion, then I will be satisfied."

"Mr. Zhang, some time ago, it was said on the Internet that you let hackers attack the Rotten Tomatoes website. Do you have anything to say about this?"

As soon as Zhang Xiao heard this question, his face immediately pulled down, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't want to answer such an extremely disgusting question."

"I just want to say that whether or not a movie can conquer fans depends on the quality of the movie, not some unsightly means. Fortunately, the truth has been revealed now, otherwise, I would still be suffering innocent injustice."

"As for who the team behind the scenes is, although it is not directly correct, I think everyone should be able to guess."

Seeing that the reporter still wanted to ask this question, Zhang Xiao immediately said: "Sorry, today is the launch conference of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes". answer."

"Okay, that reporter in blue, please ask."

"···"

"Ms. Yang Mi, I heard that you have been managing Sunny Entertainment and raising children for the past two years. Are you planning to come back?"

"That's right!" Yang Mi said with a smile, "Now that the company is on the right track and the child is two years old, it's time for me to come out and do the job I like."

"With Mr. Zhang's worth, do you still need to work? Why do you still come out to act?"

"First of all, it's because I like the job of filming. I don't film for money, it's purely out of interest. Like my husband, I also love movies very much."

"Mr. Eddie Serkis, you are called the 'Chaplin' of the CG era of movies. Are you playing the gorilla this time?"

Andy Serkis nodded, and said: "I am indeed playing a gorilla named Caesar. As for the title of Chaplin in the CG era, I dare not take it. There is only one Chaplin in this world, and only one." A Serkis."

"Mr. Serkis, you have acted in "King Kong" and are very familiar with the movements of gorillas. It shouldn't be difficult to play Caesar, right?"

"No, Caesar is more difficult than King Kong, because this is a very young orangutan, and I need to use a lot of expressions and eyes to express its emotions in different states."

"Fortunately, Mr. Zhang is also an expert in motion capture. I believe he can help me play the role of Caesar well."

All the artists of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", no matter how famous they are, have not been able to escape the reporters' interviews, but they are all old people in this circle, so it is very easy to deal with them.

After the opening press conference, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" officially entered the filming stage. Before that, Zhang Xiao had already arranged according to the number of scenes, and Yang Mi's scenes were all concentrated in the beginning and end.

The first part can be done in ten days, and the latter part can be done in five days at most.

Regarding Zhang Xiao's arrangement, although everyone had some objections to some extent, but after Yang Mi invited everyone to a meal and explained it, the unhappiness in everyone's hearts disappeared.

In any case, Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi's ability to ask for everyone's understanding and forgiveness for this matter has already expressed their respect for the crew. If there is any objection, it would be too outrageous.

He is an investor, director, and screenwriter, so it would be great if he could give an explanation. What do you think of him?
The movie "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" mainly tells the story of the growth of the orangutan Caesar, and Andy Serkis is the most important core. As long as he can get the role of Caesar, the whole movie will basically be done.

As for the roles of Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi, they only played an auxiliary role, and the requirements for acting skills were very low.

Needless to say Zhang Zhangxiao's acting skills, Yang Mi also acted very easily, almost without any mistakes.

"Honey, I haven't acted in two years, how did I find out that your acting skills are much better than before?" Zhang Xiao said in the hotel with his arms around Yang Mi who was blushing.

Yang Mi's role is actually not very difficult, but Zhang Xiao can still see that Yang Mi's acting skills have undergone earth-shaking changes, almost reaching the stage where every gesture is full of drama.

Even compared to those old drama bones, it is not much better.

Yang Mi said: "It may be that I have accumulated my acting skills in the past two years, so I have such a small improvement!"

Zhang Xiaodao: "This is not a slight improvement, but a considerable improvement. Every expression and every movement of yours fits the character very well. I think your acting skills are already comparable to Zhou Xun's." They're gone."

Yang Mi asked in surprise: "Really, you must have read it wrong, right?"

Zhang Xiao rolled his eyes angrily, and said, "Who am I, the number one director in the world, how could I get it wrong?"

When Yang Mi heard this, she said happily: "I am really flattered to be praised by you. After I go back, I must show it off."

Sunny Entertainment headquarters.

Chen Ya personally poured a cup of tea for Zhou Runfa and Liu Huade, and said with a smile: "Brother Fa, Brother Hua, what's the matter, you can just make a phone call, why did you fly here from Hong Kong Island? "

Liu Huade said: "Sister Ya, we are also old friends, so don't say these kind words to us, you are so smart, you should be able to guess the purpose of our coming here to find you, right?"

Chen Ya nodded and said, "It's about director Wu Yusen, right?"

After Yang Mi went out to film, all the affairs of Sunny Entertainment Company were handed over to Chen Ya to manage. Of course, she was also in charge when Yang Mi was around.

It can be said that Chen Ya is one of the most trusted people of Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi.

These days, Wu Yusen went to Sunny Entertainment Company almost every day. Chen Ya naturally knew what his purpose was, and wanted Zhang Xiao to speak for "Wind Talker" to prevent them from being targeted by fans.

But the problem was that Chen Ya really didn't want to take care of this matter, so she just arranged for the staff to treat him with courtesy and avoided him all the time.

Wu Yusen had no choice but to pull Zhou Runfa and Liu Huade, who were closely related to Zhang Xiao's family, over.

All three are the top filmmakers on Hong Kong Island and have collaborated with each other many times.

Zhou Runfa's film journey has been smooth and thoughtful until today, thanks to Wu Yusen's "The True Colors of Heroes", which washed him away from the title of box office poison.

Liu Huade had also been taken care of by Wu Yusen many times, and the two of them could not shirk Wu Yusen's request, so they could only bite the bullet.

They didn't call Zhang Xiao or Yang Mi right away, but came to chat with Chen Ya first, after all, Chen Ya had a better relationship with Yang Mi's family.
