Chapter 281: I Really Know How to Play!

"Merry Christmas to all. ”

In the bright and spacious study, there is a small shiny Christmas tree in the corner, Wang Yang looked at the screen and tapped on the keyboard, and quickly finished writing a short Christmas greeting and pasted a cute picture of Danny wearing a paparazzi Christmas dress;

Maybe one day, he will lose his courage and be bombarded by film critics, but not today.

"Lord of the Rings 3, the demon who wears Prada, the box office is meaningless?superficial, superficial ......" I read the articles of Jeffrey Westerhoff and others, thought for a while, and after sorting out his thoughts, Wang Yang flew with his fingers and knocked on the blog post of counterattack: "I want to be a 'deep & superficial' filmmaker." ”

"Jack and Ruth are a normal couple (not that couple), and Tom and Amy are also a normal couple. The weekend is coming, and both couples are going on a movie + dinner date, and of course there will be overtime after that we don't know, they come to the cinema and see the same poster wall. Jack and Ruth decide to watch a romantic movie called "LOVE-IT", which is profound, human, delicate, thoughtful, shocking, and tragic ending...... We usually call it literary films, independent films, and Jack and Ruth cried when they saw it, they were satisfied, and they left the cinema with a heavy heart but a happy date. ”

"Tom and Amy watched a romantic movie called 'OH, MY!' that was lighthearted, entertaining, funny, heartwarming, and had a happy ending...... We usually call it a commercial movie, a Hollywood movie, and Tom and Amy laughed, satisfied, and left the cinema happily on a date. ”

A WEEK LATER, THE TWO COUPLES WENT ON A DATE AT THE CINEMA AGAIN, AND JACK AND RUTH LEFT LAUGHING AND SATISFIED AFTER WATCHING "OH, MY!" AND TOM AND AMY LEFT WITH A HEAVY HEART AFTER WATCHING "LOVE-IT." Is there a problem with this?"

Lines of text gradually appeared in the document on the computer screen, and Wang Yang smiled from time to time, because he also figured out some of his attitudes all along, and his philosophy on the job of film.

Dada...... Wang Yang continued: "No problem, these two movies are not in conflict! But Jack and Ruth need 'LOVE-IT' and 'OH, MY!!' and Tom and Amy too, they need this one week and that next week." Understandable, do you wear the same clothes all the time? all the time? Are you sure? It seems like we've figured out why TDP is so popular. ”

"A cheerful weekend night can be brought by a good movie, and this good movie can be a literary film, or a commercial film. I don't like people who look down on literary films and independent films, they think they are all worthless, meaningless disguises, moaning, it is better to find a few videos of United Nations meetings to watch, I also hate people who look down on commercial films, they think they are superficial, clichéd, have no value and meaning, in fact, they often laugh and have fun watching it, and then turn their heads and say, 'This is spiritual garbage', the director is garbage, the actors are garbage. ”

"How superficial is that! I have a question, what is value?"

At this time, Danny, who was wearing a red Christmas dress, rushed in with a ball in his mouth, and walked around the desk, Wang Yang turned his head to look at it, and asked with a smile, "Do you know?"

"OH, MY!" brings joy, beauty, satisfaction, isn't it value? "LOVE-IT" brings thought, shock and satisfaction, isn't it value? I don't know that much, but I know they all have value, they all have the charm of cinema, and if you have to prioritize them, that's superficial! they all deserve to be celebrated, and they're remembered. ”

"Some people may say, 'Yes, but that's the treatment that only good works get,' and they say, 'Just because it's a good box office doesn't mean it's good,' OK, so what's the most representative? I'm sure it's not your mouth. In view of the fact that Mr. Geoffrey Westerhoff cares about me very much, guys, I have to make it clear that Wang Yang's pursuit as a filmmaker will not be single or limited, I like to make literary films, I also like to make commercial films, I prefer to come together! Why is it not A or B? But man, my blood type is AB. ”

"My quest is to be a 'deep & superficial' filmmaker, I wouldn't say who it should be, girls, boys, everybody, but it's mine. ”

Wang Yang smiled, feeling a wave of enthusiasm churning in his heart, so let's use "Firefly" to show his determination! Exhale, he continued: "I won't respond to this anymore, let's stop here! As a film designed to bring joy, I really don't know what more proof of the audience's love for it, its success and value than the box office...... Maybe it's DVD sales! Finally, there's it. ”

"Hmm. He suddenly stopped, called up the current global box office situation of "TDP", carefully compared it with the global box office situation of the 06 version of "TDP" in his mind, and quietly estimated and analyzed its box office potential, after a long time, the conservative result was that "TDP" is 90% sure that it can reach more than 530 million global box office, and 500 million 99%, there will be almost no surprises, unless it suddenly becomes a banned film...... He nodded, "OK!"

"LOL, do you think TDP will have more than 500 million global box office? I think it will. ”

Soon this new blog post had the first click, the first reply, and the first repost, and online fans and netizens who followed the matter flocked to it, and the magic of Yang's counterattack came!

"Haha!" Claire in front of the screen laughed while watching, amused by his humorous and interesting words, and even had the pleasure of hitting the enemy hard, when it came to blogging, how could those film critics be the opponents of the founder of the mountain, Magic Yang? She felt that Wang Yang was already very light, if she let go of her hands and feet like Juno, she would definitely make them sarcastic to the point of shame! Just thinking about it, she suddenly gasped...... OH, MY! I spent a happy Christmas Eve with my family, and before going to bed, I turned on the computer and browsed Wang Yang's blog, Evelyn's eyes widened, will Magic Yang play a little bigger now?

Meryl Streep, who received the agent's text message, couldn't help but be stunned, another 100 million! But the difficulty will increase exponentially, she frowned, a little dragged into the water, Wang Yang is really so confident, or is he a little arrogant? But he doesn't want to be ridiculed with his fiancée. What she didn't know was that Jessica was surprised when she found out, "Jan, are you serious? Oh my! Wow——!"

"Interesting, interesting. Natalie, who knew about this dynamic from the text message on her mobile phone, laughed loudly: "I know that this guy is not a safe person, he likes to mobilize and play with other people's emotions...... Asshole。 ”

AB level, deep & superficial, looking at the computer screen, Jeffrey Westerhoff's face was cloudy, and he breathed rapidly from time to time, what!500 million!?Westerhoff was suddenly stunned, and then laughed excitedly: "I'm right! He's completely crazy, this arrogant and ignorant child!" On the other side, blog critic Alan Dyer also clenched his fist happily when he saw the latest situation: "YES! This idiot has sent himself to a dead end!" Many blacks are also enthusiastic...... 500 million!?How did he say it?Drunk?Just returned from a party, smoked marijuana and became delirious?What a fool!

According to industry analysis, "TDP" has a great chance of receiving 400 million box office, if it is achieved, this is already a very black dark horse, considering the situation of "Lord of the Rings 3", it can be said that it is a commercial miracle, and that bold statement is enough for him to magically show his prestige. Now the extra 100 million has risen to 500 million? Who knows if it's possible? But "TDP" is not as sensational as "The Hangover", 500 million? Professional analysts shook their heads speechlessly.

400 million becomes 500 million, and rhetoric becomes madness. The people of the Criticism Yang faction all laughed when they heard the news, they all believed that the magic Yang was really crazy, and even the people who supported Wang Yang were inevitably a little puzzled and apprehensive after learning about it, and sometimes they really couldn't stand Wang Yang's surprise or fright.

After the family spent a happy and warm Christmas Eve, Christmas on the 25th came as scheduled, Wang Yang and Jessica, as basketball fans, were in Los Angeles, and the two had a very regular Christmas program, that is, to watch the NBA Christmas game at Staples Arena, especially this year's match between the two sides is the Rockets VS Lakers.

"O'Neal hits Yao, he goes straight to the basket, Yao can't stop him!O'Neal layups, oh - Yao Ming! He covers the ball from behind!", "Jim Jackson shoots, no ...... But Yao grabbed the offensive rebound, oh oh! A dunk, he was on fire today!", "O'Neal returned a dunk, Yao couldn't carry him at all!", "Block! O'Neal blocked Yao's jump shot, see? He had a fierce look in his eyes!, Yao was in trouble!", "Kobe Bryant, jump shot, there is!", "Francis broke through! He found a way!"...... After the ups and downs of his rookie season, Yao Ming has gradually grown into a first-class center with an average of 17 points, 9 rebounds, and 2 blocks per game, plus the strong Steve Francis, the strength of the Rockets should not be underestimated;

Today, Karl Malone was out of action, and the first half went back and forth to 57:44, with the Rockets leading by 13 points, while Yao Ming and O'Neal both scored 16 points, each covering each other once, and the battle between the two was very exciting.

At this time, the Staples Center, which can accommodate 18,997 spectators, was full, dim, and the lights were on the court, and the large screen above the arena showed Mariah Carey singing emotionally on the stage in the middle of the stadium, and the moving singing voice coiled in the ears. As she finished singing, the surrounding audience suddenly applauded, and there were lively cheers and whistles, and the stars and celebrities on the sidelines also stood up and applauded.

Wang Yang didn't wear any team's jersey or anyone's cap, just a shirt jacket and slacks, strictly speaking, he supported the Rockets to win, Yao Ming, the Rockets were in the next season rankings, but there was no need to show off, after all, he currently lives in the city; Jessica sat next to her as always, her brown hair was draped and scattered, she was dressed fashionably and beautifully, and her sexy and sweet temperament was intoxicating, but compared with last year, she had an extra ring on her left ring finger.

After the singing performance, there was a long break in the Christmas war, many spectators got up to go to the bathroom, or to buy drinks and food, and the staff moved the trampoline cushions, and the trampoline dunk performance team completed a difficult fancy slam dunk, so that the audience feasted their eyes, and walked around with the team to the away team, wearing Christmas costumes, and enlivening the atmosphere.

"Jesse, do you want to see me dunk?" Looking at the performance team under the basket, Wang Yang was suddenly full of interest, expanding his chest left and right and moving his hands. Jessica wondered, "What?" She glanced at the cheerleader girl who was jumping taller than the basket, and smiled in surprise: "You mean? Haha!" Just when she thought it was a joke, Wang Yang took off her black coat and handed it to her, got up and walked away with a smile: "Look at it." Jessica couldn't help but shout, "HEY......"

I saw him walk over and talk to the staff of the performance team for a few words, then gave a thumbs up with a smile on his face and stepped into the field. Jessica felt amused and amused, but at the same time she couldn't help but feel nervous and worried, what if she failed!

Like many viewers who are watching the situation in the stadium, Jack Nicholson, Nicole Kidman, Nicolas Cage...... Many celebrities and celebrities were puzzled for a while, what did Wang Yang do when he walked into the arena? Will Smith, who had arrived at the house, sat next to him, and Terry Smith asked curiously, "Jessica, what is Young going to do?" Jessica grabbed her black coat and explained with a smile: "Oh, yes, he's going to ......"

"THE NEXT SLAM DUNK PERFORMER IS YOUNG-ANG!!" THE LIVE DJ SUDDENLY ROARED, AND EVERYONE'S EYES IMMEDIATELY LOOKED AT THE BIG TV SCREEN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD AND ABOVE THE SCREEN, IN WHICH WANG YANG JUMPED LIGHTLY ON THE TRAMPOLINE IN FRONT OF THE BASKET FRAME, AS IF TESTING HIS STRENGTH, AND MIRACULOUSLY YANG WANTED TO DUNK!?

"You got it. Jessica made a playful expression of "I can't control him", immediately clapped her hands again, looked at Wang Yang over there with a smile, and silently shouted: "Come on! I believe you can do it!"

The people around were very stunned, did they send themselves to make a fool of themselves? Even the 3VS3 event of the NBA All-Star Game of active players, legendary players, and celebrities will not have any big stars to participate, let alone ...... Trampoline dunk? He's not Yao Ming! Of course, Yao Ming doesn't dare to play. If you fall down ugly, look at the flashes of light around you, your image will be ruined! Failure is also a joke, only success will make people cheer! But the performance team is professionally trained, so why bother?

"Jan is really ......" Will Smith sighed in surprise and said, "Crazy!" Jaden Smith pulled him excitedly and shouted: "Dad, Dad! You go up and dunk too!" Jack Nicholson, who was wearing sunglasses, was so happy that he seemed to have seen Wang Yang lying on the mat; Nicolas Cage and the others also had different smiles on their faces, anyway, they didn't dare!

"Amazing Young is going to try a trampoline dunk!" "Fantastic Young is going to try a trampoline dunk!" On the TNT channel broadcast live in the United States, the TV camera was aimed at Wang Yang, who retreated to the center line of the court, slapping a basketball, and the host Kenny Smith exclaimed: "He's warming up!

Kenny Smith laughed and said, "This is crazy like never before! Last year's Christmas game, he brought O'Neill down, and he has amazing power." Barkley continued to laugh, very unoptimistic: "Trampoline dunk is not about power, basketball is not making movies! I want him to just do a normal dunk, don't dunk himself in the basket!" Kenny Smith also carried it: "Young's figure is very standard...... Oh, it's going to begin!"

On the other side of the ocean, CCTV-5, which was broadcasting the event, also cut the camera to the scene, only to see a close-up of Wang Yang appearing, with a focused face. Zhang Weiping, who already knew who Wang Yang was, said happily: "Wang Yang, ......" Sun Zhengping couldn't understand: "Wang Yang was standing on the court, he was shooting basketball...... Oh, he's going to perform!"

Looking at the basket high above the side, and the audience in the audience behind him, Wang Yang exhaled slowly, fortunately, he always wears sneakers in football games, he slapped the basketball a few times, and then grabbed it with both hands and ran away, and the corner of his eye was the surrounding people.

When he asked the staff to dunk on the court, he was not refused, because there was a large purple cushion under the basket, and he knew that he knew how to work hard and was not afraid of falling and getting hurt. Wang Yang doesn't think he will dunk or fail, in fact, he doesn't need a trampoline, if he runs far and explodes, he can barely dunk, but he can't do gorgeous movements;

What about failure? He didn't want to be a star, he just played a game.

It's a lot of fun to shoot a ball on the floor of an NBA arena and be watched by the audience!

"Oh——!" The audience in the entire Staples Center Arena looked at Wang Yang who was catching the ball and running. Jessica on the sidelines clasped her hands, her eyes didn't blink, and she was so nervous that her heart was about to stop. I saw Wang Yang run to the free throw line, jump to the trampoline with agility, and suddenly the whole person flew to the basket! In an instant, the flashing lights of the whole court burst out, as if this was the final of the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest!

Wang Yang's strength was not very large, he crossed a smooth and elegant ascent line in the air, and his right hand, which grabbed the ball with one hand, slammed it into the basket that was close at hand!

"Oh oh oh! Amazing Young! He's got a big windmill slam dunk!" On TNT, Kenny Smith excitedly shouted, "It's so beautiful! Windmill slam dunk - oh my god, amazing Young!" With Wang Yang's steady landing, there was a sudden burst of thunderous applause and shouts at the scene, and Barkley laughed: "He did it...... Looks pretty good, he's practiced regularly, right?"

"Huo!" CCTV-5 channel, seeing this scene, Zhang Weiping said happily: "I really know how to play!"
