You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 139 Taiwanese Girls Are Crazy Too, Director Please Advise (1, Guarantee!)

Wang Quan said to Anna, "The funds for the Golden Horse Awards are not rich. In order to take care of the organizers, we should save as much as possible. Everyone else is a room, and we are no exception."

Anna nodded approvingly. She didn't feel that the boss was trying to take advantage of her. After all, he was indifferent to her initiative before. It seems that he and his girlfriend really have a deep relationship.

As a personal assistant, she was naturally introduced to Gadot by Wang Quan, but Anna originally thought that the boss and that bamboo pole were just for fun, who would have thought it would be so serious.

They arrived in the morning, and the staff member Zheng Zheng who received them said that he would come back in the afternoon to talk about the specific procedures, so that Wang Dao, who was exhausted by the journey, could take a good rest.

After closing the door, Wang Quan lay down on the bed, Anna looked left and right, it was only one bed, "Boss, where should I sleep?"

Wang Quan, "The bed is so big, do I take it all?"

Anna's eyes lit up, she immediately took off her shoes and got on the kang, and lay obediently beside Wang Quan, but her restless heart was eager to try again, but she didn't dare to do so after the experience last time.

When she came to the mysterious East for the first time, Anna was so excited that she couldn't sleep at all. She saw a newspaper next to her, and she pulled it out and looked up. It was written in Chinese characters that she couldn't understand, but she recognized Gal Gadot. The newspaper should be talking about the release of "Escape Room" in Asia.

After Wang Quan "slept" for two hours, he woke up after scanning through the films that had been shortlisted this year but hadn't seen yet.

Then Anna handed over the newspaper, "Boss, this is for you, it should be prepared for you by the organizer."

Wang Quan took a look, and it turned out that "Escape Room" was released in Neon, and also mentioned the box office in some Asian countries and regions.

Neon was released relatively late, and now it only has the box office of the first two weeks.

The weekend box office in North America refers to Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Neon's weekend box office is only Saturday and Sunday, one less day.

The box office in the first weekend was US$89. Wang Quan knew about it, and Boss Tao had mentioned it to him.

It grossed $69 the following weekend.

The cumulative box office in two weeks was 236 million US dollars!
Only then did Wang Quan realize that Sony had already made a profit in just two weeks!
This is just the box office, and there are various channel copyrights!

Looks like $100 million is cheap?

The reason why the price of 100 million was set was because the neon box office of "Ten Cloverfield Road" was only a little over 100 million.

But at this time, it doesn't matter if you suffer a little loss. I can make Sony make money and make other companies greedy. Then I will become a favorite of major companies. The copyright of the next "Juno" may increase the price. .

Moreover, the success of "Escape Room" in Neon is also a certain accident. It is the great success of myself and "Juno" at the East Film Festival, which led Sony to increase its confidence and invest more resources in publicity and distribution. Not only did it promote the film, but also Propagating the legendary kingship, making him more famous in Neon, both Yui-chan and Xi-chan have sent him messages, saying that he has appeared in such-and-such newspapers and certain magazines, which is also of great importance to his future development. Great benefit.

In addition to Neon, "Escape Room" was also released in some Asian regions, basically earlier than Neon, and it was also mentioned in newspapers.

In Kimchi Nation, it grossed more than $308 million in four weeks and is still in theaters.

In Hong Kong, it grossed as much as $120 million.

In Indonesia, the box office exceeded 200 million dollars, Malaysia's box office was 122 million dollars, Wanwan's total box office was 95 dollars, Thailand's 71 dollars, and the Philippines' 45 dollars...

The copyrights of these countries were all sold to Paramount in a package. The royal power calculated that the box office of these Asian countries has already reached tens of millions, not counting South America, Africa, Oceania, Antarctica, and consumption. Stronger European ticket warehouse.

The sum of these territories is at least more than 3000 million. Even if the share is not as high as in North America, even if there are publicity fees, Paramount will definitely make a profit from the box office, let alone other derivative income.

Sure enough, only by mastering the global market can we get the most pork. Wang Quan's ambition to set up overseas distribution channels has become even wilder.

Just as he was thinking, the hotel phone rang, and Officer Zheng called, saying that someone wanted to see Director Wang, and wondered if it would be convenient for him.

Wang Quan asked who.

The other party answered Jay Chou.

Wang Quan thought, whether to greet him at the elevator entrance or at the door of the room, the other party is also an Asian music king.

Later Wang Quan decided to ask Anna to greet him at the elevator entrance, "Go and pick this person up and bring him to the room."

Wang Quan found a photo of Jay Chou on the Internet and let her take a look, "He looks like this, has hair, speaks Chinese, remember."

"Ah."

After a while, the door rang, and Wang Quan walked to the door to greet him, "Welcome, Director Zhou."

"Director Wang, sorry for taking the liberty."

Two people with outstanding achievements in their respective fields shook hands, stiff and enthusiastic, followed by an assistant and Officer Zheng.

Jay Chou expressed his intention of coming, "I have something to ask for, I know that Director Wang is an expert in scripts, and I also know that you will not stay in Taibei for long, so I took the liberty to come here and I would like to ask you to review the script." .”

Wang Quan should be regarded as the only Chinese who has been nominated for an Oscar screenwriting award. According to Wanwan, Oscar is the most popular idea in the film industry, so Wang Quan is the most popular screenwriter in the Chinese world, and he is good at a variety of genres. There have been comedies in the past. The box office has received more than 70 billion yuan worldwide.

Wang Quan feigned surprise, "Oh, you wrote the script yourself?"

"Yes, I still want to be a director myself." Zhou Jielun said a little shyly. He wrote, directed and acted himself. It was a very proud thing, but when sitting across from Wang Quan, it seemed a bit out of character, and with the appearance of the other party Value and figure, if he wants to be an actor, it is not difficult to write and direct.

The key point is that he can also compose music and write lyrics. Although the song "Learning to Meow" is not nutritious, it does have two brushes, and many people on the island are listening to it.

This time, Zhou Jielun came here because he wanted to ask professionals to help him correct the script. This is his last script, and he also asked many screenwriters on the island to help him read it.

At the same time, he was also looking for a reason to get acquainted with Wang Quan. When he was filming "Golden Armor", he often heard people in the group talking about this 21-year-old Oscar nominee. He was highly respected in words and optimistic about his future Become the leading figure of a new generation of directors, oh, except the boss Zhang Weiping.

Jay Chou has always wanted to be deeply involved in the film industry, because he knows that music needs inspiration, but performance only needs technology, inspiration will eventually wither, but technology will become more and more mature.

He even wanted to break into Hollywood, so he ignored Little Heavenly King's face and took the initiative to visit and make friends.

In fact, it would be more honorable to go to the Golden Horse Awards to have a chance encounter, but this year's Golden Horse Awards host is his ex-girlfriend Patty Hou who just broke up. Xiao Zhou can't add fuel to the fire anymore.

Jay Chou said, "I know your schedule is tight, just email me when you finish watching."

"Well, I'll try my best to take a look today. I'm really curious about the stories written by musical geniuses."

What Wang Quan thought was that he had helped him this time, and he would ask him to write a movie theme song in the future. He couldn't refuse, could he?

Wang Quan sent Jay Chou to the elevator, and then he was about to attend the Golden Horse Awards Ceremony at the Arena. He didn't know if he was going to walk the red carpet alone or with a partner.

At this time, in order to walk the red carpet with Wang Quan, the managers of several entertainment companies in Wanwan were arguing.

"Hey, Yichen is very popular, isn't our Shaohan popular!"

"If you want to say red, who can have our family's Jon Hong now? "The Prince Turns into a Frog" has broken records!"

"Ariel and Jon are filming TV dramas, Shao Han is singing, I think our Lun Mei is the most suitable, she is a movie star."

"Lunmei doesn't have any curves and no feminine taste. Will Director Wang like it? If you want to talk about femininity, you have to talk about our family Wei Ning, and she is of mixed race, more international..."

Beijing, Nortel women's dormitory.

Yang Mi walked into the dormitory humming a song, and the TV station had already been tuned to the movie channel.

Ever since Wang Quan decided to participate in the Golden Horse Awards and served as an award presenter, related news has been seen frequently.

Yuan Shanshan joked, "The Golden Horse Award still has face. I heard that the last time the Golden Statue Award asked him to go to the senior brother, he didn't give me any face at all."

Zhang Xiaofei, "You can't say that, maybe the senior brother just didn't have time at that time."

Zhang Xuan, "I feel that this year's Golden Horse Award finalists are not very interesting, only Senior Brother Wang Quan is worth watching."

Yuan Shanshan looked at Yang Mi, "What song are you humming, what about Little Red Riding Hood and Big Bad Wolf?"

Oh, finally noticed!
Yang Mi took off her coat, "This is a song that Brother Quan specially wrote for me."

"Ah! Director Wang also wrote a song for you!" Zhang Xuan exclaimed.

Zhang Xiaofei, "With the relationship between Mimi and Director Wang, isn't this a normal thing?"

"That's right, he also wrote several poems for Concubine Liu Yi." Yuan Shanshan said eccentrically, he wrote one for you, but he wrote several poems for Concubine Liu Yi.

Yang Mi chuckled, "Songs are different from song to song. Some songs are lighter than a feather, and some songs are heavier than Mount Tai. For this song that Brother Quan wrote to me, it took several months to craft it carefully. It took him an unknown amount of brain cells, and he could write several scripts in the time it takes to write a song, but Liu Yifei's songs, my brother Quan said, I wrote two or three songs in almost a day, they are purely game works."

Zhang Xiaofei nodded again and again, "Mimi, let us listen to it?"

Yang Mi shook her head, "I haven't fully grasped it yet. I'll talk about it after I learn it. This song is not a slobber song like a cat called a little jumping frog. It's very difficult. It's as big as three or four floors. high."

The red carpet ceremony of the awards ceremony has begun. This year's starlight is a little dim. There are few big-name stars and big-name directors. Director Wu Yusen is the biggest, and actor Guo Fucheng is the most popular.

In addition, there are many actors and stars such as Jin Chengwu, Zhou Xun, Liu Jialing, Zhang Zhen and so on.

Wang Quan appeared in the middle, holding a tall and demure woman on his arm.

Yuan Shanshan asked for Yang Mi, "Who is this person?"

Zhang Xiaofei also said, "Who is she, isn't she popular?"

Zhang Xuan, "Yeah, I don't think I'm good enough for Senior Brother Wang Quan. I thought she must be an actress at the level of Big S."

Yang Mi chuckled, "Whether worthy or not, it's just a red carpet."

"Oh, the host called her name, Jun Ning?" Zhang Xiaofei heard it.

The red carpet host routinely asked some questions, she first asked, "Jun Ning, how does it feel to walk the red carpet with Director Wang?"

Zhang Junning said with a smile, "It feels a little unreal. As a director, it's okay to be so talented, but also so handsome, it really makes people have no way out."

"Oh, are you saying that those ugly directors have no way out?"

The host is very brave. Zhang Junning, who has not debuted for a long time, did not panic at all, "No, I mean those actors who are not handsome enough, such as Yang Youning and Chen Bolin."

She picked actors who she knew well and could joke around.

Wang Quan thought, she is a very smart girl, I heard that she is still a graduate student in the law department.

Afterwards, the host asked Wang Quan again, "Director Wang, have you watched all the films nominated for the Golden Horse Awards this year?"

Wang Quan smiled and said, "Coincidentally, although I have been abroad recently, I have watched all five nominated films for the best feature film. Some were in Tokyo, some were in Venice, and some happened to be when I returned to China."

The host immediately asked, "Then which one do you like most to win the best picture?"

Wang Quan, "If you want me to say it, it's very offensive."

"Tell me, Jun Ning, do you want to hear it?" The host pushed Zhang Jun Ning.

Zhang Junning also hopes that she can have more effective broadcast images, so imitating Lin Zhiling's style, shaking her arm, and said in a coquettish voice, "Director, just say something~"

Wang Quan, "Junning, this style doesn't suit you, promise me, don't act like a baby again, okay?"

Zhang Junning's face turned red all of a sudden, but the surrounding media were crazy about it, and Director Wang would make an effect.

But at the same time, Wang Quan also grasped Zhang Junning's palm and crossed his fingers with her, as if to cheer her up.

"Let's talk about it. First of all, "Crazy Stone" is excluded. It is difficult for any award to favor comedy films, and then "Strange Silk" is also excluded. Similarly, supernatural horror films are not liked by the judges. "Exile" Well, since there is "Gunfire", why bother with "Exile", it can also be ruled out."

Wang Quan concluded, "The best film must be a competition between "If Love" and "Father and Son". I bet one, the best film will go to "Father and Son", and the best director will go to the director of "If Love" Chen Kexin."

"What about the actor and actress?" The host asked again.

King Power, "It also comes from these two movies respectively, and they should be the biggest winners."

After finishing speaking, Wang Quan pulled Zhang Junning into the venue. Behind him, Ning Hao, who was wearing a big gold chain, saw that Wang Quan had left, so he started to walk the red carpet with Huang Bo.

Originally, Huang Bo didn't plan to come, I was only a small supporting role, and I wasn't shortlisted, so why should I come, but later Ning Hao said that he wanted to find someone to accompany him to strengthen his courage, so he was willing to accompany him.

In front of the TV, Concubine Liu Yi rubbed her hands and said to Zhao Liying, "Wang Quan has always been very accurate in guessing prizes, and this time I should be able to hit all of them."

Zhao Liying took out a hundred-yuan bill, "Really, I don't believe it."

Concubine Liu Yi shook her head, and also took out 100 yuan and put it on the table, "It's not easy to earn some salary, why bother~
(Ask for a monthly ticket. If you don’t vote, you will throw it in your hands. Let’s throw it on the old Buddha’s head~)
