Chapter 105: Wait and Wait (Part 2)

Shen Ming's story is very simple, and the plot is not new, that is, an "addict" who is contaminated with quality products due to family changes is performing on the streets, and with the help of a guarantor, he has a place to live, but he is still living in poverty and is treated as a "social cancer".

Before meeting Gollum, there were no "emotions" in life, until this orange cat appeared...

They go to the streets to sing together, take buses and bicycles together to peek into the world from their own small perspectives.

They rely on each other, take care of each other, and the warmth of body or mind is what this world lacks.

Except for the dubbing used for singing, the other parts were performed by Shen Ming...

Of course, this is thanks to Gonzo's cooperation...

The story, there is not much to talk about, after all, the protagonist only has one person and one cat, and he is still a cat without an inner monologue, so in order not to make the story line too single, the director deliberately used a fisheye lens to add a lot of snoring subjective perspectives, so that the audience can make up for Shen Ming's psychological activities through the visual image brain...

Purr is the name of the orange cat, and its actor is called Gonzo!

Gonzo is a Hollywood star-level cat.

Animal actors often appear in Hollywood films, and there are also special companies and institutions that provide related services, and some star-level animal actors are paid quite highly.

So, it's an eight-hour workday...

Once it is more than eight hours, the owner is paid double the salary - this is written in the contract!

Shen Ming didn't have much feeling for cats at first - he had never had a cat at home, only a dog, and his understanding of cats' habits was probably just a few words on the Internet: a noble cat!

But after getting along with Gonzo, I think the cats are also quite clingy, and they are very honest, and they play a few times, and they are not angry...

I suddenly understood the sentence: the more people I know, the more I like the pets at home ...

……

On the day Shen Ming finished filming, Xu Zheng came.

"Producer Xu!"

“… Don't say that, I'm a nominal one!"

Xu Zheng is quite embarrassed - he is busy with the promotion of "Embarrassing Mother".

In other words, I don't know who made the cast list of "Embarrassing Mother", except for Xu Zheng, the other two are wrong: Wang Zulan, Peng Yuchang...

Now it's replaced by Shen Teng and Yuan Quan...

Mr. Yuan is a bit prolific this year.

Mr. Yuan has been cooperating with Huang Bo since "Heart Flower Road", and the two collaborated on "Blade", and by the way, they also collaborated on "Alive" (drama)...

Her sense of presence has always been very strong - Teacher Yuan was inducted into the 'Chinese Drama Centennial Hall of Fame' as early as 30 years old, and she was inducted with Lao She, Cao Yu, Jiao Huang...

Before the release of "After the End", she was promoted as the heroine, and she didn't care if she actually appeared for less than 10 minutes.

"Two days from the Golden Rooster Awards, will you go?"

"I'm definitely going to go!"

"You won the prize?"

“… No, this time there was no advance notice, I can't inquire, and it will be revealed on the spot!"

"Yo, yes, it's finally a little mysterious!"

Film Awards in the Mainland... How to say it, most of them will notify you in advance, and then those who don't win the award don't have to go, so as not to be embarrassed on the spot...

But since Magnolia, I really haven't played the advance notice set again.

The major stars have also gathered.

Xu Zheng looked at Shen Ming and proposed, "Find a place to sit?"

“… I'm only two hours away, and I still have to go to the airport..."

Brother Ming is about to join the group "The Martian", and the movie is almost his one-man show...

……

"Congratulations first, the box office of "The Great Escape" was 600 million in the first weekend, and it properly broke the rhythm of 1 billion!"

“… Thank you!"

After the release of "The Great Escape", the word-of-mouth was not particularly good, with a Douban score of only 6.6 points and an eye-catching score of 9.4, but the box office was very good...

Xu Zheng suddenly changed the topic: "I heard that you are sure to win the Oscar this year?"

Shen Ming was stunned: "Huh, who did you listen to?"

"..."Joker" won the Best Actor in Cannes..."

Shen Ming waved his hand: "That's okay, Cannes is Cannes, Oscar is Oscar, I can't win Oscar!"

How to say, on the one hand, the theme of "Joker" is naturally not suitable for winning the Oscar, on the other hand, Shen Ming's identity as a Chinese is also doomed to make it almost impossible for him to win the Oscar...

Moreover, Netflix is ready to spend 30 million dollars on Robert De Niro.

"The Irishman" Netflix invested in the production, which cost a lot of money, and the production cost alone was as high as $175 million.

After the release, the praise continued, and the IMDb score was as high as 8.6 points...

This movie is naturally suitable for awards season - the old white man likes this tone!

In addition, "Fighter" is menacing, anyway, Ming Tsai is almost certain to miss the Oscar, and it is already very good to be nominated...

Shen Ming added: "Politically correct at home and unpopular externally, the Oscar is becoming the Oscar of Americans in the true sense of the word, and a script like "Get Out" actually beat "Three Billboards" to win the Oscar for Best Screenplay..."

It must be said that "Three Billboards" is the most energy-dense film Shen Ming has seen in recent years, and the writer and director Martin MacDonald has both first-class screenwriting skills and serious literary qualities. He always cools you with black and absurd things first, and then slowly touches you with positive energy, so that you can see a trace of human warmth in the cruel life.

This script actually lost to "Get Out"?

"So, in addition to "Jumanji" and "Lethal Weapon" in the past few years, are you not ready to continue to develop in Hollywood?"

"No, I just took on a comedy, and the script is not bad. ”

"Comedy?"

“… They took the initiative to find me, Brother Zheng, why do you ask this?"

Xu Zheng was a little embarrassed: "I just care about you..."

Shen Ming stared at him suspiciously, and suddenly felt blessed in his heart, and asked, "Do you want to inquire about the situation of "Emergency Rescue"?"

“… Can you talk about it?"

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, "Embarrassing Mother", "Emergency Rescue", "Jiang Ziya", "Detective Chinatown III"...

"Embarrassing Mother" is the third part of Xu Zheng's "Embarrassment" series, of course he wants to know himself and his opponent...

“… Anyway, there is still investment in the theme of "Emergency Rescue", including the logic of the script, which is above the passing score, but it should not affect "Embarrassing Mother"..."

"Why?"

"The subject matter is different!"

I really don't know why they all come to squeeze the Spring Festival stalls, why bother?

There are so many schedules throughout the year, and other months are scheduled, what's wrong?

The industry generally predicts: "Tang Detective III" has a box office of 3 billion - "Tang Detective 2" has 3 billion, and the finale of the trilogy will not be worse than the previous one...

"Emergency Rescue" also starts at 2.5 billion, Lin Chaoxian + Shen Ming, stable!

"Embarrassing Mother", starting at 2.5 billion...

"Jiang Ziya", "Pioneer", too many...

However, the market is so big, is it possible to win both sides, four wins, five wins?

In case it is like this year's Spring Festival, "The Wandering Earth" is directly crushed, then it hurts, Xu Zheng wants to inquire about the quality of "Emergency Rescue".

In fact, now they are waiting to see if "Mermaid 2" will also be set for the first day of the Lunar New Year...
