Chapter 523: Eating Northeast Barbecue in Hengdian
"Hey, my dear old friend, you're just amazing!"
"Oh, my dear old friend, how am I good again?"
"Isn't that great?
"Hey, I've heard that the box office in the U.S. isn't particularly good. β
"No, no, we are very happy to have such a result, please believe me, my old friend, this call is to tell you about this, our faith in you has never wavered. β
"Well, thank you Ron. β
A call from the United States, even if Yuki Kusano, who is very busy with filming, has to take the time to answer it, and every sentence must be very serious, otherwise there may be problems.
Luckily, it doesn't sound like much of a problem, and there is nothing else in Ron's words.
Of course, Yuki Kusano himself doesn't care what the problem is, and with his current strength, he doesn't need to care about anything at all.
It's just that in terms of news, there are indeed some minor problems.
What's the problem?
"Samurai" did not do very well at the box office in the United States.
It should be said that the box office performance of the whole movie is still okay, and it has reached $70 million after two weeks of release, which is definitely not a box office failure.
However, this box office result is indeed a little worse than the previous works of famous director Yuki Kusano.
Moreover, don't forget, that is, Ah Tang can join in this movie, and his own movie box office appeal is very strong, plus there are international actresses like Gong Li, although she does not have many roles.
All in all, the film was highly anticipated at the beginning of its release, and now it is inevitable to be disappointed that it does not surpass Yuki Kusano's previous works in terms of results.
The news of the United States is transmitted very quickly, especially in China, and there is a wonderful saying by one person, that is, we Chinese look at the United States with high-powered telescopes, but what about the Americans?
Also with a telescope, but looking at it the other way around.
At this time, the news of China to the United States will spread very quickly, and Yuki Kusano's movie will be 'average' at the box office in the United States, and it will soon become a big news that will spread among the crew.
Well, it first came out on the Internet, and many people who questioned Yuki Kusano, as well as the group of people who criticized domestic directors through Yuki Kusano, came out again.
In fact...... Yuki Kusano had been prepared for this for a long time.
First of all, this movie has been changed beyond recognition by him, and the key is that Tom has not become the outright male number one in this movie like the original "The Last Samurai".
There's no way around it, the original is a movie that's made from an American perspective and in a Hollywood model.
Kusano couldn't have shot like that, and if he did, he wouldn't be a world superintendent and a national hero of Japan.
Moreover, the original version was actually sprayed enough in the United States, and some American scholars and film critics who know the real situation in Japan really scolded a lot, and they were very hearty.
In other words, if you shoot like the original, you will be scolded by professionals.
Secondly, the original version of this movie, Yuki Kusano, if I'm not mistaken, also had a higher box office in Japan than in the United States.
That's right!
It is true that many historical facts in this movie are different from the real situation in Japan, but the box office is still higher, what does this mean?
Tom's popularity in Japan.
Of course, it also has something to do with Japan's worship of the United States, and what can the Japanese say if it's filmed like that anyway?
If it doesn't conform to the truth, it doesn't conform to it, if you admit it, what else do you dare to say?
Now, Yuki Kusano has at least done a rough fit with history, and moreover, he has also made some criticism, and ...... Well, there is still Ah Tang.
The Japanese box office is soaring, and now it is a large lead in the North American box office!
Ron's phone call should be to appease Yuki Kusano, which means, the name of the superintendent is also understood, and it should be that he does not want to affect the cooperation in the future.
After all, at present, there is still a "Red Cliff" movie that has not been completed, and this movie is also highly anticipated.
So, what about the news of the North American box office failure?
......
"I said, Brother Kusano, let's go, let's have a drink. β
"Yes, count me in!"
"It's nice to have wine. β
"Let's go, let's go together. β
As the director of "Red Cliff", Yuki Kusano was absolutely serious and serious when he was in the crew, but after filming, everyone's relationship was good, it was normal to go out to eat and drink, and even someone gave Yuki Kusano the secrets of Chinese cuisine before.
There is really no way to do this, after all, Yuki Kusano is actually Chinese, and I really can't say it.
This popular Chinese cuisine is quite strange, it is Northeast barbecue.
The superintendent summed up,A Japanese eats Northeast barbecue in Hengdian.,Thisγγγ
But it's been strange lately, and the number of times everyone goes out drinking together has increased a lot.
What do you stand for?
Oh, I have eaten a lot of barbecue in the Northeast, and I have my own taste of Uncle Benshan.
The table is full of good people, and they should be empathetic, and Yuki Kusano didn't say it explicitly, so he just spoke with his eyes.
This is a difficult move, ordinary people can't do it, fortunately, the superintendent is also a bright-eyed person, after all, he is very handsome, so many girls agree.
So, under the big eyes of the overseer, the empty and incomprehensible confusion, someone finally understood.
Uncle Daoming gently put down the wine glass, "I said, let's go, I don't have any great ability, Director Kusano, you are a good person, although you are Japanese, you can say a word, you have also contributed to Chinese films." β
Listen up!
Uncle Daoming's words directly made Yuki Kusano blush.
"I haven't done enough. "You have to say that, or what?
Everyone nodded.
Uncle Daoming then said, "Actually, a failure is nothing, besides, it can't be regarded as a failure, it's just a little less, right, so, the outside is still yours, well, that's all." β
What does this mean?
Ordinary people must be confused, but Yuki Kusano is different, he ...... Well, I want to laugh.
I understand, I completely understand, this is the encouragement of the big guy to him, a group of men, I'm afraid I'm embarrassed to say it directly, that's all.
Moreover, even if it's Uncle Daoming, it's not easy for him to talk directly to Yuki Kusano, isn't it?
It's just that, in fact, there are not only future men at this table, but also our Queen Fushou.
Zhang Ziyi has been following, but she is very low-key now.
The incident she did before made her reputation in China decline sharply, but fortunately, it was not a big deal, and that incident could be regarded as educating her, so she must be careful in the future.
This time she was summoned back by Kusano Yuki.,She's mainly low-key.,And now...
Seriously, I'm pretty impressed.
Yuki Kusano, this guy is a big bad guy in the first place, but he can make so many people care about him?
Phew, you so-called artists or old artists, just don't recognize his true colors!
The international actress complained so much in her heart, and she was already in a semi-crazy state.
The acting is really good, on the surface it is not shocked, and with a smile.
So, what about the superintendent Yuki Kusano?
"......" wept!
I didn't cry, I didn't cry at all, but there were tears coming down my eyes.
This scene shook everyone at this table in the Northeast barbecue restaurant in Hengdian.
"What's wrong?"
"This ...... We just ......"
"Director, director, don't do that. β
Everyone expressed concern, but Yuki Kusano immediately said, "I'm so impressed!"
In a word, everyone felt at ease, but they were also a little moved.
However, the overseer had just thought of another thing, which was still a very important thing.
"Thank you so much for your love for me, especially Mr. Daoming, I am a Japanese, I have such an experience in China, I have so many friends, such good friends, thank you so much!"
This...
It is surprising that a Japanese person can speak Chinese so well, and he still translates Japanese directly into Chinese.
That's right, that's exactly how the Japanese speak...... It's really hard to be happy for Kusano, he was originally a Chinese.
But that said, everybody ...... Many of them also had tears in their eyes.
are all playing the Three Kingdoms, look at this about Zhang Fei, there are Liu Bei and Kong Ming and Zhou Yu over there.
Everyone seems to have returned to the Three Kingdoms, but Kusano is lucky for him...... Who does he play?
I'm sorry, that's pretty much the end of it, Yuki Kusano knows that she should say what she should say the most.
"Thank you so much! I will definitely work harder! With everyone's encouragement and concern! We will definitely succeed in this movie!"
These words make people's hearts warm.
But then...
"Everyone, especially Mr. Daoming, I have a new movie project after this movie, I have a reluctant request here, can you continue to help me?"
Keep helping?
Isn't this just to continue to work with you director Kusano?
Who still doesn't understand?
Isn't that a great thing?
Uncle Daoming felt ...... when he heard it He wanted to laugh because something weird.
However, there is one thing that needs to be asked.
"What's going on with this movie?"
Uncle Daoming asked, and Yuki Kusano was comfortable.
immediately said very solemnly and seriously: "This movie is called "The Condition of the World"!"
He spoke in a very strong tone, but some people at this table didn't quite understand, but some did.
"Director, can you make me ...... too" Zhang Ziyi almost didn't think about it, she just said such a sentence, and when she realized that something was wrong, at least she was too rude, so...
"I know this film is a very good anti-war film, and it's great that you can shoot it!
Explained.
There are still people who are confused, but!
Uncle Daoming couldn't help but take a long breath, "It's amazing! Director Kusano, you're amazing! Okay! I promised, you have to come to me to shoot this movie! No matter what role, I'll take it!"
I even said yes!
People who don't understand this movie probably understand it now, so what about Yuki Kusano?
The overseer almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Great! We're going to have a great time working together!"
In this way, the movie "The Conditions of the World" has a team.
