You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 33 Inflatable Wah-Wah Love
Early the next morning, Wang Quan greeted the photographer, makeup artist, and lighting engineer refreshedly. Everyone was very happy with the first cooperation yesterday. Everyone was in a good mood, except Megan.

She was not in a bad mood, but was tired. For the afternoon's shooting, she had to sleep now, and she kept saying in her dreams: I'm so exhausted.

Wang Quan especially likes to chat with the team in charge of special effects, because he wants to ask them to help with the company's opening animation after the film is finished, hoping to give a real price.

There is a Chinese in this team, the nationality is still there, named Feng Tianming, in his 30s, wearing glasses, and wearing the checkered shirt that programmers like to wear stereotypically.

Wang Quan didn't talk to him on purpose before, but seeing that he was on orders today, he went up to chat with him.

Knowing that the other party is from Henan Province, Wang Quan immediately picked up his hometown, "My ancestral home is from Hebei Province. We are separated by a river, and we are all in the North China Plain. We are all from the Central Plains."

Seeing that Wang Quan, the up-and-coming director who is now full of ambition, is so approachable, Feng Tianming is also willing to chat a few more words.

"Actually, when I first joined the team, I thought you were going to be targeted by these old fritters at such a young age. I didn't expect them to be convinced by your ability so quickly."

Wang Quan, "Maybe it's because they don't have the habit of infighting. They cooperate with each other and it's good for everyone to finish filming early. Of course, it's the producer JJ who suppresses them."

"Yes, Abrams is indeed a very capable producer."

Later, Wang Quan asked Feng Tianming how he got into this business.

"Actually, I want to go to Silicon Valley..."

It turned out that Feng Tianming didn't want to stay in the United States. He was the only child in his family, but he had no choice but to have his girlfriend come to study in the United States. He was reluctant to part with her girlfriend and worried about long-distance relationships, so he gave up his promising domestic Baidu researcher status. Following his girlfriend to Los Angeles, relying on his excellent computer skills, he started working on computer special effects.

Wang Quan asked Feng Tianming if he had any difficulties living in the United States.

"I don't have a problem with my language skills. It's still money. Although I earn a lot, I always feel stretched when I make money and spend it for two."

Wang Quan nodded, and immediately left contact information with Feng Tianming. They are both fellow villagers, and there is no conflict of interest. There may be opportunities to cooperate in the future.

Wang Quan took out his mobile phone and counted the time. It is almost early morning in China now. I don't know if Mimi has slept.

Of course not, Yang Mi just watched "Wulin Biography" with her parents for a while, but it's ridiculous, the key point is that these actors are all popular, and it is said that they can compete with the Spring Festival Gala in the ratings, so enviable, this is Brother Quan By the way, is it the influence of a divine drama?

Now that she was back in her room, she was watching the Sohu video interview about Uncle Kun with great interest. She had fun watching it, and had a new understanding of Uncle Kun's thick skin.

In this interview, we can see that it was his father Wang Qiankun who guided Wang Quan's childhood love of movies.

It was the father, Wang Qiankun, who insisted on watching movies with his son after busy work every day, and answered his questions.

It was the father Wang Qiankun who brought his son Wang Quan to the set of "Farewell My Concubine" to feel the charm of the masterpiece.

It was his father Wang Qiankun who used a bonus of 1 yuan to cultivate Wang Quan's interest in editing and behind the scenes of movies.

It was the father, Wang Qiankun, who argued with Wang Quan's mother in order to support his son's admission to the film school, and even parted ways.

It is the father Wang Qiankun...

In a word, father's love is like a mountain!
Uncle Kun is really a little too much. Could it be that Brother Quan is on the road of directing without my contribution, Yang Mi!

As a child star, I don't bring Brother Quan with me every time I act. It is because of myself that Brother Quan can frequently get in touch with the crew and the core of the movie.

Without himself, would he be able to meet Zhou Xingxing at the age of seven?

Without himself, can he take a photo of Monkey King at the age of eight?

Without himself, can he ask director Huo Jianqi for advice on movies and life at the age of 12?

So, director Wang Quan's current success is half of Uncle Kun's and half of his own in the military medal!At least not less than one-third!

Wang Qiankun finished blowing it himself, and his subordinates also helped blowing it together. The blowing boss is a movie master hidden among the people.

Fortunately, he has not forgotten that this is an interview about his son. At the end of this interview video, Wang Qiankun also showed the photos of his son from childhood to adulthood, featuring a handsome, tall, sunny and cheerful boy.

After Wang Quan knew about it, he was afraid that he would cry. The sense of mystery he had always wanted to maintain was completely destroyed by his father. Under the video, director Wang Quan suddenly appeared with many good-looking fans, and the comments were disgusting. Even when Yang Mi wanted to give Wang Quan to herself Buying Arctic Ocean has never said such blatant words.

Hey, disgusting~
Yang Mi shuddered, and then looked at the group of college classmates. No wonder Yuan Shanshan knew about Brother Quan. It turned out that the school had already hung up congratulatory banners. All grades and classes in the school were discussing this matter. There are people talking about it over there.

Of course, at the same time as the discussion, some people said that Wang Quan is a scumbag who is always surrounded by different girls.

Yang Mi lamented that successful people are always accompanied by all kinds of rumors and slander, which is probably the price of fame, but the facts about Brother Quan should be true.

She also inquired about Brother Quan's great achievements in school from Re Yizha. Re Yizha is a student in the vocational class of Nortel, one year higher than Yang Mi. The two of them met in high school because of shooting magazines. Yang Mi Knowing that Re Yizha is an upright person, he shouldn't slander and slander her.

However, Yang Mi felt that Re Yizha might be exaggerating because of love and hatred. How could all four girls fall in one dormitory? It's not easy to arrange the time.

Just as she was thinking, Wang Quan's call came, and Yang Mi, who was paralyzed on the bed, immediately sat up straight. Even knowing that the other party couldn't see her, she straightened her hair and clothes, "Hey, Brother Quan, what are you doing~"

Sitting on the toilet, Wang Quan briefly replied to his parents and classmates for their concern and congratulations, and then called Yang Mi.

Wang Quan looked down, "Thinking."

"Are you thinking about me? Don't you want to arrange a role for me?"

Wang Quan-_-||: I was thinking about constipation, not Yang Mi!
"Don't think about it for the next year. If you arrange roles for you, if you want to be paid, and how much you are paid, you will have to pay back three or four times to the company. Isn't this purely being taken advantage of?"

Yang Mi also wanted to say, our friendship price, is it okay if we don’t charge money, but Wang Quan said again, "And your English is not good enough."

That's right, Brother Quan is now a Hollywood director, and the movies he makes are all in English.
"Brother Quan, tell me about your two films. I saw them in the class group. One is called "Lars and the Real Girl", which was nominated for the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. How do you translate this into Chinese? I Classmates, they are literal translations, which I don’t think are accurate.”

The Chinese translation of this movie is actually a bit embarrassing, but Wang Quan thinks that Yang Mi should not care about that, "It can be translated as Love of an Inflatable Doll."

"What?" Yang Mi didn't quite understand, "Is it an inflatable balloon that looks like a doll? That's why the hero and heroine met?"

After all, she is still young, and now she has received less external pollution. Wang Quan patiently explained, "The heroine is this inflatable doll, which looks like an adult woman. You can understand it as a large Barbie doll. They usually have beautiful faces. The hot body and good touch are used to satisfy the biological needs of single men, and the male protagonist regards her as a lover."

"Ah!" Yang Mi understood a little bit, and was greatly shocked, "Brother, I'm afraid your movie won't be released in China, right?"

"How to say?"

"This should be a pornographic film!"

"It's not that pornographic. In North America, it's only rated PG-13. Teenagers over the age of 13 can watch it with their parents. In fact, this is a very healing movie."

Then Wang Quan talked about what kind of story it was, "The hero Lars is a lonely person, has no friends, and doesn't like to talk. A girlfriend, brother and sister-in-law are very happy for him, but when they arrive at his house, they find that this so-called girlfriend is just an inflatable doll Lars bought from the Internet, dressed in heavy makeup and named Bianca.

"Lars talked to her as if communicating with people, and accompanied her to eat and watch dramas. His spirit seemed abnormal. My brother and sister-in-law consulted a psychiatrist, and they could only act with him first, treating Bianca as a real existence. and tried to convince the people in the town to understand my brother's behavior, and even invited them to the party..." (Note 1)

Whenever Yang Mi slept with Wang Quan when she was young, she especially liked listening to Brother Quan tell stories.

At this moment, she was also fascinated by listening to it, and the obscene thoughts at the beginning were gone, replaced by sympathy for the fate of the characters.

It's a great story!

Even if she is as shallow as her, you can still hear the excellence of this story. It is indeed my brother Quan. You deserve to be nominated for an Oscar. If this award is not awarded to you, it will be discrimination by the judges based on nationality and race!
"Brother Quan, why don't you film such a good story yourself!" Mimi asked again.

Wang Quan smiled, "At that time, I was short of money. I had to invest money in filming myself, and I could make money selling it to others. I would definitely choose the latter. Moreover, this kind of literary film is definitely not as profitable as commercial films, so the first film I directed chose "The Basement."

"Tell me about this movie again, why did it sell for 500 million at a cost of 2000 million!" Yang Mi was very enthusiastic about making money.

"The cost of 500 million is an exaggeration, and the full calculation is only 200 million dollars."

"Ah, 200 million, 2000 million!" Yang Mi was shocked. Isn't that ten times the profit, which is much stronger than the four times the profit that people said before, and her admiration for Brother Quan has increased by 2.5 times.

Wang Quan reminded, "The cost is an industry secret, you just need to know it, don't talk about it everywhere."

"Well, don't you understand me, I'm strict."

Wang Quan: I have never tried this~
Yang Mi asked again, "It's only 200 million, of course it's a lot of money, but isn't it too little for a Hollywood movie? It seems like you're still a sci-fi movie, right?"

"Because there are few actors and few scenes," Wang Quan explained, "there are only three main characters, one character, and the scene is basically an interior scene and an exterior scene. Although it is science fiction, it only has a little science fiction at the end of the movie. Suspense and reversal."

"Ah, bro, tell me about it!" Yang Mi's curiosity was aroused.

Wang Quan did not agree, "If it is difficult for "Love of Inflatable Doll" to enter the domestic market, then I think this "Basement" is not a big problem, so you have the opportunity to see it in domestic movie theaters. It doesn't look like much fun."

Foreign films want to enter the mainland market. In addition to the fixed 20 part-accounted blockbusters every year, there is also a model of batching films. Before 94, there was only batching of films in China, which was to buy out some old films uniformly. There were no new and exciting blockbusters.

"No. [-] Covelo Road" is expected to enter the mainland market through film approval, but it usually takes a long time after it is released in the United States, and it may even take several years.

Wang Quan also told Yang Mi about the knowledge of approving films, and she said distressedly, "It will be very late, maybe I won't see it this year~"

Wang Quan was silent for a moment, "This film will be released in North America during the summer. If you are free at that time, you can come to the United States to find me, and I will accompany you to watch a movie~"

(It’s Monday! It’s time to hit the rankings again! Last week was not very successful. This time, I hope everyone can help Lao Buddha, at least close to the top [-]! Please ask for monthly tickets, please recommend, and please talk about interaction in this chapter!)
　(Note 1: The script of this movie was actually born around 04, and it has been slightly changed here, so that it has never been born. In the past, Laofo wrote entertainment articles in pursuit of absolute consistency with reality. Now the mentality has changed, and it is still for the plot. Service is the most important thing. After all, even if I pay attention to such details, most readers don’t really care. We readers only care about being happy~)
