You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 94 Two Generations of Xiaolongnv in the Same Frame (3 Monthly Pass Plus Change)

Next, Wang Quan read a few profiles of actors, most of whom were unfamiliar faces. After all, Wang Quan asked for an actress aged 15 to 18, and the highlight was a young one. The image of the request was in contrast to the pregnancy.

After all, Caucasian girls don't feel girly when they are a little older. He even considered 14-year-old Wang Keying, but Chinese-American mixed race will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of winning awards.

Wang Quan looked at it and asked, "Why is there no Ellen Page?"

She has made her debut in Hollywood with her stellar performance in "Hard Candy" last year, and this month she will star in "X-Men: The Last Stand."

Dorothy, "But she's nineteen, too old."

Wang Quan, "But she is very small and looks tender. Plus, we can meet each other during the audition."

Just like Kristen Stewart was Bella's first choice in Twilight, Ellen Page was Juno's first choice for King Throne.

It's just that there is a big difference between the script and the original version, and Wang Quan wears colored glasses to her, so it is easy to regard her as a brother, so whether she is still the most suitable candidate needs to be seen before making a conclusion.

Dorothy added the name persuadingly, and rolled her eyes at the same time, "Since 19-year-old Ellen Page can do it, do you think 20-year-old Lindsay Lohan can do it?"

Wang Quan thought that this guy wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to rekindle his old relationship, but looking at her sly eyes, he knew he was wrong. Damn, even using his ex-girlfriend, what a scumbag, I like it!
"Add it," Wang Quan said again, "Why isn't there Emma Watson?"

Dorothy, "Brother, you really dare to pick anyone, can you afford Hermione?"

Wang Quan, "This is a literary film. According to industry rules, she has to perform with a reduced salary. If her salary does not exceed 100 million, I can consider using her."

After all, Emma, ​​who has acted in four Harry Potter movies, may be the most well-known girl born in the 90s on this planet. She is an excellent booster in terms of box office and influence, and her acting skills are also good. The 16-year-old her image also fits her requirements.

Dorothy thought for a while, "I can send her an audition invitation, and if she refuses, I'll tell the whole world about it."

Wang Quan nodded. Boss Tao's highlight is that he should use it if he has the conditions, and he should use it if he has no conditions. It is estimated that the name of "Juno" will spread throughout the industry soon.

"Oh, one more thing." Dorothy took out two invitation cards, "JJ invited us to the North American premiere of "Mission: Impossible 3."

On May 5, "Mission: Impossible 5" will be officially released in North America, and the premiere will be on the 3th.

Wang Quan asked, "Can I bring a female companion?"

Dorothy said sourly that of course she could, and then Wang Quan contacted Gadot.

On the 4th day, Wang Quan and Gadot in a Chanel haute couture dress appeared at the Gruolman Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, and the tall Gadot instantly became a landscape.

Thanks to Anne Davis for borrowing this outfit from the brand, otherwise Gadot would have to buy the clothes herself to attend the event, and she should make herself famous as soon as possible, otherwise she could only rely on the agent's face.

In the reporter area, Wang Quan met Li Xiulian, a Sina reporter who interviewed him, and Wang Quan warmly greeted her, "Hi, Crystal."

Li Xiulian was very excited, but she didn't expect Director Wang to remember her English name.

She seized the opportunity to ask, "Did Cruise invite you to the premiere?"

Wang Quan shook his head, there is no need to rub off on this enthusiasm, and he is really not familiar with him, "It was invited by the director JJ Abrams, and he bought my first movie."

"Oh, so that's the case, why did you choose Miss Gadot as your female companion this time?"

"Because I can't find a more beautiful girl than her around me." Wang Quan's words made Gadot smile even brighter, and he could unlock new cheese for him at night.

Li Xiulian thinks it is possible to make a fuss, and the title can be written like this "King Quan failed to get together with Lindsay Lohan because of this woman!"

A reporter also asked Wang Quan what he thought of "Mission: Impossible 3", but I didn't even watch it. home sick."

Gadot: What homesickness, didn't you just come back?

Wang Quan is not the main character, so he hurried past on the red carpet, followed by Maggie Q, one of the main female characters in this movie, and she also has a Chinese name called Li Meiqi.

But in fact, she is not Chinese, her mother is a more difficult person, her father is from the United States, and has the blood of Fagabo Ai Shiguo. She worked as a model in Neon in her early years, and later went to Wanwan to develop, and finally became famous in Hong Kong for beating girls. " She is also featured in Rush Hour 2, but the most impressive of King Quan is "Naked Agent".

Next up was Philip Seymour Hoffman, the man who just won the Oscar winner in March. He played the villain, which can be regarded as one of the promotional points of the movie.

Wang Quan and Gadot were seated early, and they couldn't see Tom Cruise bringing his fiancée Katie Holmes, who had just given birth to a daughter, into the arena, but they heard the cheers of the mountains and tsunami, Worthy of being the number one idol superstar in the world.

Dorothy came earlier than them, she was next to King Quan, "I said hello to JJ when I came over, he didn't seem to be in a good mood."

"Why, he should be happy that a blockbuster film directed by him is about to be released."

Dorothy shook her head, "However, the results of "Disc 3" are not satisfactory. You must know that the cost of this movie is 1.5 million, which is the most expensive debut ever."

Although director J is well-known, he is mainly known as a TV drama director and producer. It is indeed the first time for a big girl to be a film director.

Gadot was puzzled, "Isn't the movie released yet?"

Dorothy took Gadot's little hand through the royal power, "Sister, you don't know, "Disc 3" has already been released in Yingguo and other countries, and the data is far inferior to the previous one six years ago. "

The previous one was directed by Yusen Wu, which earned a brilliant achievement of US$2.1 million in North America and US$5.46 million worldwide, and was crowned the world's annual box office champion in 2000. Staying in the stars, but it is also the starting point of his downhill road.

Wang Quan shook off Dorothy's hand, and touched Gadot's small hand himself. He also agreed with Dorothy's statement that the film's performance was indeed not good. There are data in the film and television database, which is the lowest in the series.

Wang Quan looked at Dorothy and said strangely, "Why do I feel that you are gloating?"

Dorothy, "Do I have any?"

Gadot, "You seemed to be laughing just now."

Dorothy smiled and didn't hide it anymore, "If this movie fails, then JJ will definitely pay more attention to "No. [-] Cloverfield Lane". He is the producer of our movie and he is also the one who made the decision. He bought it at a high price, and if the movie is successful, he can also save some goodwill with Brad Gray (Paramount CEO).”

Hearing what she said, Wang Quan also smiled, "That's right!"

At this time, Brother Cruise outside brought his fiancée, who was a little fat because of the baby, into the arena.

Wang Quan whispered to Dorothy, "It seems that Ah Tang is in a good state of mind, as expected of a veteran idol, he can hold his breath."

Dorothy curled her lips, "There's nothing he can't hold back, his money won't lose a penny, and he won't lose even if Paramount loses money."

"Oh?"

Dorothy told Wang Quan, "The copyright of the Mission: Impossible series is in the hands of Tom's company, so this project is not so much Paramount's, but rather his. Paramount wants to make a sequel, and Tom needs to agree. , but also to meet his box office share requirements, not the box office profit share, but the total box office share!"

Wang Quan searched the film and television library, and was really taken aback. Disc 1.5, which cost 3 million yuan, had a total global box office of less than 4 million US dollars, but Tom Cruise alone took away 7500 million US dollars!
Damn it, superstars are all about making money!

This means that the box office results are poor. If the results are good, it is estimated that a movie can earn [-] million!

If it weren't for Paramount's ability to make money from derivative copyrights, it is estimated that this movie will lose money and make money. No wonder the old man Lei Shidong is so displeased with Ah Tang.

Wang Quan stepped over Gadot and poked Dorothy, "I also want to share the total box office ~"

Dorothy, "Do you want 1% of the box office or 20% of the profits?"

"Forget it, I still have confidence in my ability to make money from movies."

Dorothy said again, "After "No. [-] Cloverfield Lane" is released, I will consider increasing your salary as appropriate."

"Escape Room" Wang Quan received 88 director's remuneration, and next time it should be able to break one million. I just don't know how much this movie will make in the end. Wang Quan is looking forward to the 20% full copyright profit share.

After the movie screening, Dorothy took Wang Quan and Gadot to meet Tom. This guy's popularity has declined recently, so he is much calmer in dealing with people than before, and he won't jump on the sofa casually.

He also smiled and expressed that there is an opportunity to cooperate with Wang Quan. Wang Quan said in his heart, I will consider it.

Next, apart from working on the later stage of "Escape Room" and going back to school for classes, Wang Quan has been paying attention to the box office and social reputation of "Disc 3".

Although his film and television library also has these things, they are emotionless and cold data. Only when we are truly in this era and look at the data and words that change every day can we have a clearer understanding of a work.

The opening scale of this film is 4054 theaters, which is the fourth largest opening scale in film history, but it only got 1663 million on the first Friday, with an average of 4100 US dollars per game.

There was not much improvement on Saturday, with a box office of 1840 million and an average of 4500 per game, which is still not ideal.

Compared with "Ice Age" a while ago, it got 2170 million on the first day and 2800 million on the second day, leaving international superstars far behind.

Three days later, "Mission: Impossible 3" ranked first on the weekly list with a first weekend of 4802 million US dollars, but it was far from Paramount's estimate of 5780 million.

The media and audience think that Liangtang's private life has affected the box office, and some people think that there is a problem with the quality of the movie.

Anyway, JJ is a bit annoying recently, a bit annoying, although there are still two big markets, Neon and Huaxia, but these two markets are not controlled by Paramount. , all arranged until July, the day lily is cold.

JJ doesn't expect these two markets to give him any surprises. What he should do now is to apply for more marketing funds and resources for "Ten Cloverfield Road". To their own strength and vision.

So Wang Quan was in Los Angeles, and he could clearly feel that there were more news about "2000 Cloverfield Lane", some of which focused on the buyout fee of 2000 million sky-high prices. The CEO of Paramount came out and said, "The director David King is a Genius, many directors can't shoot this effect even with [-] million!"

Wang Quan said that I thank you, didn't he just want to let people know that this movie is not a shoddy and low-cost movie.

Another publicity point for them is Megan Fox, who is about to enter the cast of "Transformers" and her sexy beauty.

The propagandists even hyped up the scandal between Wang Quan and her. Although Wang Quan did not show up, it did not affect them talking to themselves there. Megan also cooperated with the media and said some ambiguous words.

In addition, there are rumors that Megan and her boyfriend who have been dating for many years are breaking up because of King David.

The spread of these news back to the country is nothing more than new evidence that the king's power is advocating our country's prestige and glory for the country.

But in Concubine Liu Yi's view, it was very uncomfortable.

During this period of time, she and Mummy have been dealing with some household and private affairs in New York. She asked for leave from the school, and it may take some time before she can return to China.

During this time in New York, Concubine Liu Yi saw Wang Quan taking the lead actress of his new film to the premiere of "Mission: Impossible 3", and also saw the CEO of Paramount full of praise for Wang Quan, who spoke highly of it, and now sees Wang Quan and Megan are rumored to be rumored, and I feel that the film crew is really going too far. To promote the movie, disregarding the facts to smear Wang Quan is really abominable!
Fortunately, things in New York were finally settled, and my mother took Sissy to Los Angeles on the west coast.

The sun is shining here, and Concubine Liu Yi fell in love with it right away, and said to her mother, who had just been too tired to move, "I want to go out for a stroll."

Normally, Liu Xiaoli would be accompanied at such times, otherwise how could she rest assured that her daughter was so slick.

But today she was too tired, so she let Concubine Liu Yi go out by herself, and also reminded her to be careful, to be safe, to be cowardly, not to wait for dark, to go back to the hotel in the afternoon.

Concubine Liu Yi went out and went straight to the University of Southern California. She had already thought about it. She didn't know where the royal power was, so she came to his school to squat with him. He is an exchange student, and now he is not filming, so he must come to the school. .

You can enter the university as you like, so Liu Yifei inquired and came to the USC Academy of Cinematic Arts, which has just changed its name.

After waiting for a long time, she didn't even see a Chinese person, so she wandered around the school, wanting to buy something to eat, and happened to see an Asian face, and the small round face was comparable to her own.

"Hello, are you from Huaxia?" Concubine Liu Yi asked.

"Uh," the other party seemed a little hard to answer, "I can speak Chinese, what's the matter? Concubine Liu Yi."

"Ah, you know me?"

"I'm crooked. I've read your "Tian Long Ba Bu" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy"."

"Great, what's your name?" Concubine Liu Yi enthusiastically pulled the other party's arm.

"My name is Chen Yanxi, is there anything I can do for you~"

　(It should be released tomorrow, um, it should be~ Anyway, there will definitely be a movie within 100 chapters!)
