China Entertainment special effects started in 1997

After the premiere, there was a regular dinner to thank the guests. This kind of dinner usually does not bring reporters.

Jiang Heng did not break the rules. He only asked his assistant to leave Guo Fan's mobile phone number and said he would contact him later.

Guo Fan naturally had no objection, because he was surrounded by a group of envious reporters. Some of them were not in a hurry to go back to the company to write articles and shouted to buy him a drink.

Zhuo Wei on the side did not join in the fun. As a professional entertainment reporter, he wanted to take a photo of Jiang Heng's rumored girlfriend.

In recent years, there have been all kinds of rumors about Jiang Heng's rumored girlfriend in the entertainment industry. Tang Yan, Liu Yifei, Jing Tian, ​​and Yang Mi are all popular at present.

But he also heard about two more eye-catching ones. One is Monica Bellucci, who is over 40 years old and more than ten years older than Jiang Heng. It is said that she had an affair with Jiang Heng during the filming of "The Matrix 2".

The other one, of course, is the popular Hollywood actress Megan Fox, who also starred in Pacific Rim 2 and attended today's world premiere.

Zhuo Wei believes that they will definitely have a secret tryst.

Tonight is the best time.

So he hurried to the parking lot and drove to the hotel where the Pacific Rim 2 crew held a banquet.

In the hotel banquet hall, Jiang Heng, Han Sanping, Zhang Yimou, Yu Dong, Zhou Lixian, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen, Jia Zhangke, Hong Jinbao, Zhou Xingxing, Yuan De, Yuan Hua and others sat at a table.

Speaking of Pacific Rim 2, which they had just watched, they all praised it.

Hong Jinbao talked about the monster blockbuster King Kong, which was just released in Hong Kong but has not yet landed in the mainland, "It is indeed quite shocking, but compared with Director Jiang's blockbuster, it is not worth mentioning!"

Jiang Heng laughed and did not comment.

Because he thinks King Kong is actually not bad, with a box office of 218 million US dollars in North America and 556 million worldwide.

In the Chinese mainland market, the box office also exceeded 100 million.

In Jiang Heng's opinion, there are two reasons why the film failed to achieve such a high result. First, the publicity and promotion were not good. Second, the release in the mainland was more than half a month later than in Hong Kong, North America and other places, and pirated DVDs had already been released. Third, the Chinese people always lacked a sense of immersion when watching such films.

However, at the premiere banquet of "Pacific Rim 2", it is definitely not possible to praise the competitors' films.

Because this is the biggest competitor of "Pacific Rim 2" in the global market.

"King Kong" was released eight days earlier than "Pacific Rim 2", and the box office will still affect each other.

There is also a powerful "The Chronicles of Narnia", which is also a fantasy and science fiction movie, with a global box office of more than 700 million US dollars.

But the release time was half a month earlier than "Pacific Rim 2", so the impact is not that great.

In the mainland, there is a mythological and romantic blockbuster that competes with "Pacific Rim 2" in the same period, that is "A Chinese Odyssey" which was released one day earlier.

The film was written and directed by Liu Zhenwei, a master of "reheating old stuff", and co-produced by Yinghuang, Huayi and Western Film Group.

The distributor said that "A Chinese Odyssey" is the sister film of "A Chinese Odyssey", telling a touching love story and drawing a perfect end to "A Chinese Odyssey".

As for the early release, one is "touching porcelain" marketing, and the other is influenced by media publicity. It is felt that the current Chinese-language film market in the mainland can accommodate two blockbusters to be released in the same period.

Yinghuang, Huayi and others also felt that the two films were of different types, and finally decided to release it one day earlier than "The Ring 2".

However, because they did not know the quality of "The Ring 2", they were still uneasy, so they ordered people to buy the premiere tickets at a high price and watch it on site.

At Huayi Company, two people who were sent to watch the movie talked about the plot and viewing experience of "The Ring 2" respectively.

"It looks very exciting, the fighting scenes are so cool, especially the Storm Red in the film is so handsome, the related toys will definitely sell like hot cakes."

"The story is not complicated, it's just all kinds of fighting, but it looks quite clear, you can see who is beating who...!"

Wang Zhonglei frowned when he heard it. He thought he would hear negative comments about "Ring 2", but he didn't expect these two guys to be full of praise. It's simply boosting others' ambitions and destroying their own prestige!

"Is there no flaw?"

The two people who were sent looked at each other, and one of them immediately said: "It lacks the element of love. The male lead Huang Xiaoming and the female lead Liu Yifei played Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu in "The Return of the Condor Heroes". Now they are starring in a movie together. Many audiences want to see them renew their relationship on the big screen, but they are just comrades from beginning to end, without love!"

The other one hurriedly said: "Yes, the audience will definitely be disappointed. You can ask the media to write some articles about this!"

Wang Zhonglei nodded. That's right. Knowing yourself and the enemy can ensure victory in all battles.

I don't know what Jiang Heng thinks. How can there be no love in the movie?

Well, he is such a person. He never regards love as a selling point of the movie.

The problem is that the audience will be disappointed if you don't let Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei interact with each other.

After thinking for a while, he asked again: "That Megan?"

"No, the foreign actor who played the second male lead was quite handsome, but he didn't get one either. I don't know what Jiang Heng was thinking. Maybe the first and second female leads are his, and he doesn't want to film their love scenes!"

"It's very likely, he's so lucky!"

Wang Zhonglei felt a little unhappy when he heard what these two people said.

Although he didn't like Jiang Heng, he felt that both of them were of the same type and level.

You two workers, dare to criticize the big boss?

"Okay, get out first!"

Wang Zhonglei waved his hand and drove the two out.

He paced for two steps and called to briefly tell his employees about their evaluation of "Pacific Rim 2".

"It's okay. We are targeting Christmas. Which boy or girl doesn't yearn for love? It's the sequel of "A Chinese Odyssey". Can it lose to a monster movie?"

Wang Zhonglei was stunned and thought, "Are you too confident?"

However, Huayi's investment ratio is not high, so it doesn't regard the box office as more important than the sky.

He just said, "Okay, I will still promote it according to our plan!"

But, the hotel banquet hall.

Huang Xiaoming, Tom Hiddleston, Liu Yifei, Megan, Jing Tian, ​​Tang Yan, Gao Yuanyuan and other cast and crew members sat at a table. The first two looked at the beauties at the table, which was both gentlemanly and cautious.

Especially Huang Xiaoming, he couldn't figure out who was Jiang Heng's real girlfriend, but he felt that they all looked a bit like each other.

There are thousands of beauties in the entertainment industry, and he would never offend the big boss for a woman, so he just watched the girls "fighting in secret" silently.

However, Megan's Chinese level is limited, and she couldn't hear the other meanings in the words of other girls. She just excitedly said that "Pacific Rim 2" will hold "premiere" activities in Tokyo, Seoul, and Hollywood respectively, and she will accompany Jiang Heng to attend all related activities.
