China Entertainment: The happiness of being a director is as simple as that

Chapter 174 Jogging, Progress

With the explosion of "Latent", Lu Pingan's reputation in Hollywood and China has soared.

What followed was that more people wanted to hook up with him.

All kinds of phone calls and text messages rushed in. If you don’t have any conditions, you can ask him about his schedule after returning to China. If you have conditions, you can directly ask if you can come to visit Laomei.

The people on the phone don't care about the distance, every time his status is promoted, he will come out like this. Lu Pingan is already familiar with this, and then refuses whoever can refuse.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about, and nothing to worry about.

The rise of status, and the rise of Hollywood's status, is particularly advantageous in handling domestic relations.

So at this time, it doesn't matter whether you agree or not.

Whether you reply or not is important.

So even if it was rejected, everyone was very happy.

At least Lu Pingan replied.

For them, this is noodles!
Of course, not everyone will be rejected by Lu Ping An.

If Yan Danchen and Zeng Li come over, he will definitely be happy, provided they come separately.

But they are very sensible and do not want to cause trouble.

Liu Qianqian also said that she wanted to come and see, but Lu Pingan did not refuse, because he came with Zhang Songwen Zhou Yiwei.

"Brother Ping An!"

On the Los Angeles filming set, after the crew had finally taken a break, Liu Qianqian's soft voice sounded.

"Come on, let's show you around the set."

Lu Pingan smiled and waved, Liu Qianqian followed happily, Zhang Songwen and others followed along, and Liu Xiaoli followed behind without any surprise, feeling happy.

This time she and Liu Qianqian came to visit the class, naturally with the intention of getting closer to Lu Pingan.

It's nothing to be ashamed of saying.

After all, Lu Pingan is now the only director in China who has gained a firm foothold in Hollywood.

Not only the director, after "Latent" exploded, Lu Pingan also had the right to participate in investing in Hollywood projects.

Looking at the country, and even looking at the Chinese community, this is the only one.

Who in the domestic industry doesn't want to get closer to him?

Therefore, Liu Qianqian, who had a good relationship with Lu Ping'an, can naturally get the moon first.

Let's not talk about whether you can get any opportunities through this, at least it is necessary to maintain that relationship.

So a few days ago after "Legend of Sword and Sword 1" was finished, Liu Xiaoli asked Liu Qianqian to go back to Laomei for a vacation as soon as possible.

As a Chinese-American, isn't it normal to go back to the United States to rest for a period of time after work?

When returning to Laomei, it is more normal to stop by Los Angeles to visit the classes of acquaintances.

Of course, Liu Xiaoli was also worried that Lu Pingan would dislike her obvious snobbery, so she asked in advance before coming, and said that if it was really inconvenient, then forget it.

After all, some things can't be too much.

Fortunately, the situation is not as bad as she thought. The relationship between Lu Pingan and Liu Qianqian is still very good, much closer than ordinary people.

This made Liu Xiaoli very comfortable.

She felt that she hadn't discussed anything with Lu Pingan about resources for more than two years, and it was really wise.

"Brother Ping'an, such a large set will cost a lot of money, right?"

On the set, Liu Qianqian looked at the somewhat scary "Gotham City" and said with emotion.

"Yeah, it must have cost nearly 1000 million U.S. dollars."

Lu Pingan introduced.

Now they're on the set of "Model Gotham City."

1% of the scenes in Gotham City in "Batman 80" will be filmed here.

The set was set in a huge hangar.

The hangar is 230 meters long and 50 meters high.

It's huge, but it's several meters smaller in length and height than the hangar that Nolan found in the original version.

No way, the original London Cardington Hangar cannot be rented, and it is cheap here.

In fact, the cheapest one is to set the scene in China, but this kind of studio is not just based on the cost.

Future sustainable income must be considered.

Laomei is the base camp of Batman and the base camp of Batman fans.

In the future, this studio will be open to visits for a fee, and it can also be used as a shooting base for other related movies.

This is a business model in Hollywood.

If it is placed in China, although the construction cost can be reduced, the equipment cost is not low, and the follow-up income will be far less than here.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't have much income, and it doesn't cost much anyway.

"It's spectacular!"

Liu Qianqian sighed again, her expression shocked.

For this kind of expression, Lu Pingan is also not surprised.

Because that's what almost everyone does when they come in and look at it.

After all, a city was born out of thin air.

The dark street corners of the slums, all kinds of pipes, wires and airtight walls are restored one-to-one. At a glance, it is dirty and dilapidated, making people feel dark and dangerous.

There are also railway tracks, high-rise buildings, and underground parking lots that are scaled down.

These are future scenes of crashes, explosions, falling rails, etc.

When people are in it, they just feel like a smaller Ultraman, which is amazing.

After walking around, everyone, like those fans, also stared at the Batmobile.

"It's so handsome, isn't it a tank? With this car, are you afraid of bumping into it in BJ City?" Zhou Yiwei was amazed for the first time.

Lu Pingan asked with a smile, "Do you want to sit down and take you for a ride?"

Zhou Yiwei: "Okay!"

Lu Pingan asked again: "Where's Qianqian?"

"Can I?"

"Of course, ladies first, you come first."

As Lu Pingan said, he opened the driver's door of car No. 1.

Car No. 1 is the only Batmobile with a co-driver, so Liu Qianqian will not be allowed to sit on her lap.

Liu Qianqian sat in with a face full of excitement, and with the roar of the engine, the car began to rush forward.

Then after more than 100 meters, the car turned and returned to the original place.

Lu Ping'an: "Okay, the drive is over."

Liu Qianqian's face fell down: "Is this the end? I thought I was going to go to the street."

"It's a good idea, I don't want to eat in prison."

Lu Pingan got out of the car with a smile, Liu Qianqian was full of regret, but Lu Pingan's next sentence made her happy again in an instant.

"You are the first non-crew member who has ever ridden in this car, and also the first girl I have ever ridden in this car, just have fun."

After saying this, Liu Xiaoli behind laughed first, very happy.

After a ride, Liu Qianqian and the Chinese people she knew in the crew, such as Ning Hao and a few teachers she knew from Nortel, had a brief chat and then didn't bother her much, and sat quietly back to her original seat to watch the crew filming.

After five o'clock in the afternoon, the day's shooting was over.

After finishing the finishing work as usual, Lu Pingan greeted Wu Jing, Liu Qianqian and others to go to the cinema together.

Today is the day when the movie "Dead Silence" by the little brother Wen Ziren is released, Lu Pingan has to go to see the scene, and let everyone relax by the way.

It is now the end of May, and Batman's progress is close to 5%, which can be described as extremely fast.

In a few days, I will be able to end all the roles of Lao Mei and then move to China and London.

After working continuously for more than three months, going to the cinema to watch a Chinese version of a movie is considered a change of entertainment, and it doesn't always have to be a big name at night.

When we arrived at the theater, Wen Ziren was already there, and he looked a little nervous.

Seeing Lu Ping'an and his party coming, Wen Ziren immediately found the backbone.

"Lu, you're here."

"What's the matter, Xiao Wen, I'm very nervous."

"Yeah, I went to the toilet three times in just one hour."

"Be confident and take it easy."

It's hard for Lu Pingan to say anything, this is a normal physiological reaction, he also had a similar feeling when his first movie was released, but it was very small.

As he spoke, Wen Ziren introduced the people around him.

"This is my parents, this is my good friend Revol"

Lu Pingan greeted everyone kindly. Wen Ziren's parents could speak Chinese well, and they did not forget their mother tongue.

Revol is a white guy, that is, the "doctor" and screenwriter of the original "Chain Saw 1", and the screenwriter of "Dead Silence", he is a nice guy.

After Lu Pingan encouraged him, everyone entered the theater.

With the arrival of 6 o'clock, the premiere began.

The next movie did not surprise the crowd in the theater by accident.

Everyone finally realized that there is still a big difference between old American movie theaters and domestic ones.

At least the horror of tongue cutting is definitely not seen in domestic theaters.

This also makes the dinner time after watching the movie, a group of people seem to have nothing to eat.

"I can't eat anymore, that's just right, eat less, and go to the gym to exercise together later."

Lu Pingan suggested with a smile, "Jogging is good for your physical and mental health."

Zhou Yiwei was the first to say yes.

Zhang Songwen also said that exercising can make the body tired and help the jet lag.

Ning Hao was also the first to retort: ​​"What's the matter? He's going to the gym? He's going to show off his status as a torchbearer!"

Everyone suddenly realized, and began to yell in envy to let Lu Pingan treat guests to a big meal.

Lu Pingan directly agreed: "Let's go, go to the Chinese restaurant next door to eat beef tongue!"
