You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 710: Sleeping with my brother-in-law is our corporate culture
Taking advantage of New Year's Day, Wang Quan gave the crew three days off. He also wanted to go home to see his wife and children. He was busy with work last week and couldn't go home, so he hadn't seen them for half a month.

Others could also take the opportunity to take a break. Wang Quan brought Zhao Jinmai, who was 17 years younger than him, into his car and helped the freshman with some tips on how to pass the final exams.

Li Gengxi and Xiang Hanzhi, two of the Sanlitun sisters, are also preparing to accompany Zhuang Dafei back to Beijing Film Academy.

However, the three people sitting in the back of the car had almost no communication. They had joked before that they would be buried together in the same grave and live together with the same stick, and now it has really come true, but they have become wary of each other.

~
Group of concubines.

A few people were chatting about the issue of the Happy Camp hosts accepting gifts, which is now a hot topic on the Internet. They proudly stated that they had never given any gifts, and the hosts did not dare to make things difficult for them. After all, those people are well-known for treating people differently according to their appearance.

At this time, Hu Lianxin suddenly popped up and said: Oh no, oh no, I guess the team will have to expand again!
Yang Chaoyue: What the hell, another salary cut?

Cheng Xiao: You've already bought a house, why are you still concerned about this?
Zhou Ye: That Liu Haoyi, right? She is indeed a strong rival. The key is that Zhang Yimou has given all his resources to her.

Tian Xiwei: Xiao Hu, you have a lot of contact with her, what do you think of her?

Hu Lianxin: It's not just the one with the surname Liu. There were so many young girls in our crew this time, and almost all of them were taken away by Director Quan. The key is that they all offered themselves up. Don't you think they are cheap?

No one said anything. Most of them were sent voluntarily, and those who were actively contacted by Wang Quan were surpassed.

Then Hu Lianxin reported several people's names. There were six new people she knew alone. Among them, Zhang Jingyi, Chaoyue, Wang Churan, Zhang Ruonan, and Hu Lianxin were all old acquaintances.

So she asked: Jingyi was born in 99, should we add her to the group?

Yang Chaoyue had no objection. The girl was quiet and not annoying. It was just that she was not very familiar with the other people. Tian Xiwei had a better relationship with the Sanlitun sisters.

However, Tian Xiwei said: Maybe my husband is just playing around, so let's wait and see. If the charity fund drops sharply later, it means their position is already consolidated, and it won't be too late to absorb them then.

Wang Churan immediately agreed: Yes, yes, Tiantian is right~
At this time, Chen Duling, who was in charge of the overall situation, said: I know you have opinions, but my husband is just that kind of person, there is nothing we can do. If we want to compete for favor with our seniors, we must have more friends and fewer enemies, and not push the other side to the opposite side.

Zhang Ruonan agreed: Sister Dudu is right.

Finally, Cheng Xiao suggested: Why not wait until Chaoyue celebrates moving into a new house and then invite her husband over.

Zhou Ye: That’s great. It’s time for us to get together.

On the other side, although the Sanlitun sisters stopped talking, Zhuang Dafei took the initiative to speak in the group.

Zhuang Dafei: Do you know the power of unity? Now is the time for internal fighting!

Xiang Hanzhi: What do you mean?
Li Gengxi: What? You want to send all three together? You think it’s not embarrassing enough?

Zhuang Dafei: What happened to us?
Sleeping with brother-in-law is their Mi Shi’s corporate culture. Xiao Zhuang sees it more clearly than them: Do you know that this time when Director Quan returned to Beijing, he only brought Zhao Jinmai in the car.

After seeing this, the other two fell silent. They knew, of course, that this was part of the reason for their current depression. Wang Quan obviously valued the one with the surname Zhao more, which could be seen from the scenes in the movie.

None of the three of them have many lines, but Zhao Jinmai is both the class monitor and the top student competing with the male protagonist Zhang Xincheng for the top spot in the grade. If you don't count the head teacher and the male protagonist's mother, she can be said to be the heroine, except that there are no emotional scenes.

So Zhuang Dafei said boldly: Unity is strength, three people are more attractive than one person, and I don’t believe that the three of us lying on the same bed will be less attractive than her!

After arriving in the capital, Wang Quan first sent Zhao Jinmai, who had packed her clothes, back to her residence. Mai Mai, who had just evolved, was reluctant to leave and seemed to have gotten used to the taste for it.

Wang Quan kissed and hugged her again and again, just like coaxing his daughter, and went home immediately after comforting her.

On the way, I took a look at last year's annual box office, which was a total of 819 billion. Unsurprisingly, it was lower than 2019 billion in 847, but still higher than the North American market, which made the Film Bureau feel a little more relieved.

However, they also hope that Wang Quan can return to the creation of commercial genre films as soon as possible, such as shooting a science fiction film. How can there be only one Guo Fan in the Chinese science fiction film?

Wang Quan thought to himself: Didn’t Teng Hua also pay for it?

Wang Quan can understand the mentality of the Film Bureau. Since "Twilight" in 2007, 2020 is the first time that Wang Quan's movie has fallen out of the top ten of the year.

"Lily" ranked 15.57th of the year with 11 billion.

前十名里1、2、3、4、6都和王道有关，其中234是第一出品方。

There are two foreign language films in the top ten this year, "Zootopia 2" and "Wonder Woman 2".

Gadot demanded the right to review the script before signing for the sequel. Sure enough, under the supervision of the script team including Wang Quan, the sequel was not messed up.

Although the North American box office has decreased, the mainland box office has increased even more, so the global total box office has exceeded the first one, becoming the second most popular female superhero movie after "Wonder Woman". Gadot has the hope of filming the third film to create another glory.

It is also worth mentioning that with "The Battle at Lake Changjin" and "The Legend of the Feathered Robe" entering the top ten film history, "Avengers 4" was squeezed out of the top ten and ranked 11th.

From then on, the top ten box office hits in mainland China were all domestic films! This was the only one in the top twenty.

Apart from the United States, the only country that can do this is China. Now even India can't do it, as Avengers 4 is also a big seller there.

However, Chinese-language films performed poorly in the global market in 2020. In 19, "Easy Journey 3" had a global total box office of 19.17 billion yuan, ranking second in the year and seventh in film history. Although most of them were provided by the mainland, the overseas market is still unprecedentedly huge.

However, the overseas box office of the top movie of the 20 years, "Changjin Lake", is almost negligible. This kind of mainstream movie obviously does not sell well in other countries.

Among the top ten films of the year, only "Legend of the Feathered Robe" and "The Three-Body Problem 1" sold well in the global market, especially "The Three-Body Problem 1", which was much more popular than "The Wandering Earth", which also made Wang Dao more confident in creating a global hit science fiction series suitable for all ages.

The Three-Body Problem 2, directed by Wu Shixian, was also sought after by almost all the top domestic superstars, as they all wanted to play Luo Ji so much.

After arriving home.

"My daughter, my son!" Wang Quan hugged little Xianmi first, and then they went to see the five-month-old Bayi boy. He was trying hard to lift his head, but he had a lot of flesh, so he got tired after lifting it for a while.

Wang Quan played with Xixi and the two babies for a while before Yang Mi came back.

She is in a good mood. "Changjin Lake 2" is confirmed not to be released during the Spring Festival. The first part of "Dragon Race", which is said to have a cost of 1.5 million US dollars, has also been scheduled for the summer of 21. Currently, there are only 7 works scheduled for the Spring Festival, which is the least in recent years, and the competitive pressure has dropped sharply.

After all the counting, Jia Ling's directorial debut, which also had Shen Teng joining, unexpectedly became the second top seed.

As for the top seed, some people think it is "Mozart from Outer Space" starring Chen Sicheng, Huang Bo and Rong Zishan, the male lead of the annual hit drama "The Bad Kids".

Some people also think it is the fantasy special effects blockbuster "Assassination of Novelist" directed by Lu Yang and starring Lei Jiayin, Li Xian and Liu Shishi.

Some people also believe that this is Yu Feihong's third directorial work, Liu Cixin's second novel adapted into a movie, and the first time that Chen Duling, one of the four new 90s actresses, has proved her appeal after the "Xiao Yao You" series, and she co-starred with Deng Chao in "Take Her Eyes".

Anyway, the top seeds are "Her Eyes", "Mozart" and "Assassination", and "Hi, Mom" ​​can only be the second top seed.

The other three films are "Raging Fire", directed by Rao Xiaozhi, a famous director invited by Guangguang, adapted from Neon Cinema, and "Nezha Reborn", an animation from the "New Gods" series by Light Chaser. Of course, the annual "Boonie Bears" is indispensable, and this time they are going to "Return to Earth".

After the huge hit of "The Wandering Earth" in 19 and the huge flop of "Fortress of Devil May Cry", science fiction films began to rise in the twists and turns. "Her Eyes", "Mozart" and "Boonie Bears" all have science fiction elements, so the science fiction content of this year's Spring Festival is very high.

Of course, the only pure science fiction movie is "Take Her Eyes", and this film is produced by Guo Fan, which is also a selling point.

Two days after returning home, Wang Quan attended an opening ceremony; Xiaobaihua Beijing Theater opened!

Since the release of "Lily" last year, a Yue Opera fever has swept the country. Xiao Baihua took the opportunity to launch a new play "New Dragon Inn". Coupled with Chen Lijun and Li Yunxiao's marketing on Douyin, the two became completely popular and became the most popular opera actors at the moment.

Moreover, the two of them were now wealthy, so they invested in Xiao Baihua, became shareholders, and opened a theater in Beijing.

Beijing is the territory of Peking Opera, but there are many young people in Beijing who like to follow fashion, and Yue Opera and Jun Xiao CP are fashionable, so the venue was packed on the opening day, and Wang Quan was sandwiched among the audience without making any noise.

He only waited until the show was over to pick them up in the garage, then found a home nearby to share the bliss.

The next day, Wang Quan returned to the crew by himself, but most of the girls did not come back because they were going to shoot the next scenes with the male lead Zhang Xincheng and his mother, so there was no need for them to stay.

But soon Chen Yao returned to the crew, and he was eager to go home.

After returning to the capital, she confessed to Meng Ziyi about what happened on the crew.

Sister Meng asked her seriously if she was sure she would be with Director Quan in the future. "If you are sure, you can't look for another man in the future. In this life, you will be Director Quan's person in life and Director Quan's dead person in death."

"I dare not say what will happen in the future. I don't know if I will regret it in the future, but I don't think I regret it now. I like him very much, and it is my honor to be his woman."

So Sister Meng used her assistant's authority to directly add Chen Yao's name to the charity fund list.

She was lucky, the next day was number 510, and she received million.

She is the only one among the six newcomers who has received this treatment. This is the importance of personal connections.

After looking at the new month's income, Yang Chaoyue found that it had basically not changed. It seemed that those newcomers had not passed the test yet.

The next one to come back was Cunzi. The promotion period of "Send You a Little Red Flower" had passed, and it easily broke 1 billion. Her wish had been fulfilled, so she hurried back to consolidate her favor.

She was not surprised to see Chen Yao. As long as Director Quan needed him, she didn't mind having one more person.

After the final exams of college, the three sisters from Sanlitun, as well as Zhang Jingyi and Zhao Jinmai, also returned.

The three sisters were determined to fight together against the others. Their fighting spirit frightened even the good kid Zhao Jinmai.

She pulled the seemingly harmless Cun Zi aside and asked, "Are the three of them healthy?"

Cun Zi shrugged: "Well, why not~"

~
At noon, Wang Quan took a rest and locked the door, worried that the three sisters would come and attack him. Just as he was about to lie down, he received a call from Ni Ni.

The call came from the United States. She reported the good news to Wang Quan, "I won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress! Just a few minutes ago!"

After filming of "Anne Wong" was completed, it was released in December last year, and then the journey to win an Oscar began.

Li An does have some level in making movies like this. In the increasingly sluggish Hollywood, even an average level is good enough.

So Ni Ni became the second Chinese to win the Golden Globe Award after Liu Yifei.

And this time she is the drama actress, which is more important than the musical/comedy actress Sissi.

Now that Ni Ni has won the Best Actress awards at the Cannes Film Festival and the Golden Globe Awards, she can barely keep up with Xian Mi.

Whether it is Shishi, Dabaobei, Datiantian, or Zhao Liying, they have all fallen behind compared to the three of them. No matter how hard they try, they can't compete in terms of awards, box office, or fashion resources.

Next, Ni Ni will strive for the title of the first Chinese to win an Oscar for Best Actress. As for the nomination, she is basically sure to win. It is a biographical film, and it is an English film. Moreover, it is directed by Li An, which is much more advantageous than Sissi's "The Farewell".

And this time, Li An is trying his best to win the Best Picture award. He has already won two Best Director awards and really needs the encouragement of a Best Picture award.

However, Ni Ni said that they are not without rivals. "You don't know, there is a Chinese female director in the United States recently. We lost to her in the Golden Globe Awards for Best Picture, Drama and Best Director! Moreover, her leading actress is Mrs. Coen. She won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actress and several Film Critics Association Awards, which is equal to ours."

"You mean Zhao Ting from Nomadland, right?"

"Yes, it's Teacher Song Dandan's stepdaughter."

"This opponent is indeed worthy of attention. I can only wish you good luck."

Ni Ni: "Are you not coming then? Oscar will definitely invite you."

Wang Quan: "It's uncertain. I have to shoot a new drama after the New Year."

After hanging up the phone, I opened Weibo and found that the news that Ni Ni won the Golden Globe Award had spread.

Although American movies and American awards are gradually losing their appeal, it is still very exciting to win one every time. In addition, Ni Ni has a large fan base, which will naturally add fuel to the flames and expand her influence.

Wang Quan also specifically asked Sissi, "Do you regret it? If you had taken this role, coupled with your experience with Oti, you might have won the Oscar for Best Actress this time."

Liu Yifei was wearing glasses and flipping through the new script Dorothy sent her. "No, I don't regret it at all. Giving birth to Xiao Bayi is more important to me. And I think my new script is even better. I will definitely do well this time!"

Wang Quan frowned. In fact, he didn't want Sissi to accept this script, as he was worried that she would get too immersed in the role and be too stressed out. But Dorothy thought it was perfect for her, as it was also a biographical film.

Ni Ni’s glory lasted only one day. The next day, a sensational event in the entertainment industry quickly became the number one hot search topic.

Shuangzi, who broke up with her ex-boyfriend last year, was exposed by her ex-boyfriend this year about the fact that she had two children.

Public opinion was in an uproar for a while.

Da Meiyuan, who was sitting at home, sighed and said, "It's over. Another road is blocked. I can only rely on my own efforts."

She sent a message to Wang Quan, asking him when he would take his annual leave.

At the same time, Wang Quan also received an invitation from Yang Chaoyue: "I'm moving. Are you coming? You don't have to move. Just do it..."
