Chapter 1006 Returning to China
Two hours later, Kristen Ritter wrapped up her audition.

It is finalized, the role of Jessica Jones is hers, and the agreed contract is a total of five films. Because there is no one on the production team for the time being, the contract will be replenished later.

Now that all the actors have been finalized, naturally we can't wait any longer.

Hollywood's summer holidays have been missed, so the next best time is around Christmas.

The United States is in winter break, and the Chinese New Year is approaching.

In other words, Li Sheng needs to complete the post-production of Shang-Chi before December, because the promotion also takes a certain amount of time.

Finish the post-production before December, so the shooting needs to be at least one and a half months in advance. Post-production and making copies all take time, so if you calculate it this way, the time is still very tight.

New York is New York after all, and it is still impossible to shoot in many places, which requires a lot of green screen and special effects shots.

In this case, China’s Flying Over the Rainbow will not be able to keep up with Li Sheng’s progress. In desperation, under the recommendation of Fox, Li Sheng met with Industrial Light and Magic. The contract was finalized for 2000 million US dollars, and the post-production special effects were provided by Industrial Light and Magic. .

But what price to spend, what treatment to enjoy.

Among other things, the special effects just released by Industrial Light & Magic, including some motion capture in the later stage, are all beyond the reach of Flying Over the Rainbow.

But fortunately, this time when I came to the United States to fly over the rainbow, many people came with me, so I just took this opportunity to observe and learn.

On the whole, there are no problems with the crew for the time being, the main thing is that they are rushing to shoot Li Sheng's scenes.

He had been away from home for too long, he was homesick, Yu Feihong, Mr. Zhou, Li Shengnan, Zhou Zimu, and Li Yu.

In order to catch up with the progress, Li Sheng had to increase the salary and overtime pay of the crew. Although the Yankees did everything humanitarianly, such as working eight hours, no one could bear it under the offensive of money.

Finally, at the end of September, Shang-Chi's filming in the United States was completed, and the filming was completely completed. The rest is post-production.

All the previous films of Shang-Chi were also sent to the United States, where they were uniformly produced by Industrial Light and Magic. The crew returned to China, and Baye and a few accompanying people stayed here to confirm some actions and special effects in the play.

And Li Sheng couldn't wait any longer, and flew back to China before the crew returned home.

Back in the capital, I went straight to Bihai Ark, but I didn't see anyone, so I immediately turned to the courtyard, and finally got my wish and saw two girls and Li Yu, who was almost a year old.

The boy is bold, and he is not afraid of strangers after seeing each other for so long, and the happy Li Sheng grinned from ear to ear.

But that's all for a while.

After leaving the courtyard house of Yu's father and Yu's mother and returning to Bihai Ark, Li Sheng's jet lag due to his long-term stay in the United States finally started.

When holding Li Yu in his arms, he began to doze off non-stop.

Yu Feihong carried Li Yu over and asked Li Sheng to go to sleep for a while. Li Shengqiang cheered himself up and stayed up to play with the two girls. He didn't go upstairs to rest until after dinner at night.

The next day, early in the morning, Li Sheng set off to the company to deal with some things that had accumulated during this time because he was not in the country.

The small things are basically done by Yu Dong and the others. The real problems for Li Sheng are some general problems, and they are about the flow of large sums of money and Li Sheng himself as an artist. contracts and more.

It was destined to be a busy morning, and when Li Sheng was dealing with official business in the morning, he saw an interesting one in some of his contracts.

It was the groom's invitation to Li Sheng, Yu Feihong and Mr. Zhou to open Weibo.

No, it's not just an invitation, but also a reward, which should be considered a kind of endorsement.

Now Li Sheng is too busy with his own affairs, how can he have time to accept contracts from other companies, all of which have been rejected, but he has kept this one.

But when he saw this Weibo, Li Sheng suddenly remembered something.

That was Apple. He had been busy with movies before and didn't think of it. Now he suddenly remembered it and checked it on the Internet. It was a pity that Apple's first-generation mobile phone was already on the market.

Li Sheng pondered for a while, and asked the people stranded in the United States to help check Apple's stock price. It is not very high. According to them, it is a basic return after the sharp drop, and it is not recommended to buy it.

Hearing this news, Li Sheng gained confidence and asked the people over there to help buy 1000 million US dollars of Apple stock. He planned to sell it after Jobs burped.

Anyway, I don't need money now, so I don't care about it.

Now is not an easy time. After dealing with the company's accumulated affairs, I spent three days with Yu Feihong, and I will return to the United States soon.

Because the samples from Shangqi have already come out, the rough cut version, although Ba Ye has the right to dispose of it, but this is Li Sheng's play after all, he is playing martial arts, it is better to let Li Sheng come to these things.

Li Sheng returned to the United States without stopping, first watched the rough-cut version of Shang-Chi, then put forward some comments, refined it, and immediately went to Fox to discuss with the people there about Iron Man's box office settlement, and Iron Man's box office settlement. Preparations for Xia 2 are underway.

If you have money and a chance, you should give it a hug. Fox thinks so, and Li Sheng thinks so too. Anyway, Iron Man will return to Marvel sooner or later. It is also good to create a little profit.

After discussing these matters with Fox, Li Sheng has nothing to do in the United States.

Next, Shang-Chi will go to Thailand to make a copy, and then start to send it to China and Hollywood from there. These are not things Li Sheng has to worry about.

He was already planning to go back to China, he was angry, anyway, the filming was over, as for whether he could successfully achieve the effect Li Sheng wanted, there was no way of knowing, it was up to fate.

Regardless of whether he succeeds or not, Li Sheng has already made up his mind, take a break, take a good rest, really rest, take a break from filming, spend time with his family, and when he has an idea, he will come back to filming.

But before Li Sheng returned to China, people from Marvel came to find Li Sheng.

They hope that Li Sheng can serve as the art consultant of their Marvel film and television department. The price is that Li Sheng can use the copyright of some characters for free in a small amount when using Marvel's copyright in the future.

Since they said so, Li Sheng was quite moved, but he didn't intend to let Marvel off so easily.

He left the United States and returned to China after throwing Marvel a difficult problem of acquiring a small share of Marvel.

This time it can be regarded as really settled down, and the rest just needs to wait slowly.

Now that he's not working, Li Sheng took over the groom's Weibo invitation. With 1000 million yuan, Li Sheng's family opened three Weibos.

Anyway, it's okay, it's good to go up and browse Weibo, if you don't film for a while, you can still be a joke, don't you?
