Chapter 788: Encounter with Disney
(Monday, also the second day of 17 years, continue to watch three more today, double monthly pass is still there, continue to ask for one, this is the first change.) Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info)
After finishing the affairs of Victoria's Secret, Wu Cheng went directly to his wife and children, and had lunch in Chinatown, and then continued to accompany his wife and children to shop.
Although it is normal to see some Hollywood stars here, it is not very common to see someone shopping with four wives and four children.
Therefore, it is inevitable that Wu Cheng and his entourage will attract some onlookers.
Some people even ran directly to ask for a group photo and an autograph......
It's a blissful annoyance!
Wu Cheng also knows that this is the price to pay as a celebrity. So, he can only face it with a smile, especially now that most of his fans are still his compatriots.
Zhong Chuhong, Chen Yulian, and Madonna's three daughters did not come together, and among the five women around Wu Cheng, although Afra is very beautiful, she is actually the most nonexistent.
Even in the eyes of many people, she is just a subordinate of Wu Cheng.
And among his four wives, Hepburn needless to say, the Chinese who are begging for a living here, if they don't know Hepburn, they will be mixed here for nothing.
In comparison, only Lin Qingxia's reputation is not so big here.
Deng Lijun has released records here, and he has also released two albums, so his fame among the four is directly after Hepburn. and Zhao Yazhi's TV series "Shanghai Tang", "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" have all been broadcast here. In the eyes of foreigners, Zhao Yazhi's fame may be smaller, but in front of these Chinese, Zhao Yazhi's popularity is not weak.
As for Wu Cheng, it is needless to say, not to mention that he is a director, a business wizard, or that he has acted in "Human and Ghost Love", just say that he married four wives who are like flowers and jade, which is absolutely unique in the entertainment industry, and it is difficult not to be remembered.
Even many people are very curious about Wu Cheng's life, curious about how he balances the contradictions between his four wives? If Wu Cheng is willing to appear on some talk shows, then this talk show will definitely become popular in an instant.
But it's a pity that Wu Cheng has never been interested in these programs, even when his movies need to be promoted, he, as a director, generally rarely cooperates with the show.
After walking around San Francisco for most of the day, Wu Cheng and the others went home directly in the evening.
Then life went on as usual, and it wasn't until the night of the release of 'Star Wars 2' that Wu Cheng took Zhao Yazhi to attend the premiere of 'Star Wars 2'.
In more than a month, "The Terminator" gave a box office score of nearly 100 million, which may not be a big deal for Cameron in later generations, but for him in this period, for a rookie director, it is definitely a very eye-catching achievement.
What's more, this is only the local box office in North America, not overseas. And the North American side is not fully painted, there is still a small number of theaters that continue to screen this movie, just like the "alien" movie, which is still being screened, and the box office is continuing to climb.
Wu Cheng believes that the final box office of the movie "Terminator" in North America can definitely break 100 million, and the global box office will break 300 million, which should not be just a dream.
Obviously, this drama is much better than the one in the original time and space.
And now, another box office blockbuster is coming!
"Hey, Cheng, nice to meet you! Angie, you're getting more and more charming!"
At the reception at the premiere of 'Star Wars 2', as soon as Wu Cheng and Zhao Yazhi appeared, Cameron came over with a glass. At this time, Cameron looked proud.
Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Judge, I haven't congratulated you yet! By the way, do you have any plans for the future?"
Cameron slapped his head and exaggerated: "Oh my God, boss, you better spare me! I still want to take advantage of this time to rest more, I'm not as energetic as you!"
As he spoke, Shirley Lansing led an old man over, "Boss, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Walker, the CEO of Disney." Mr. Walker, he ......"
This old man who is over half a hundred years old, Wu Cheng still knows, of course, this knowledge is known in this life, in the previous life, he only knew another Disney domineering Michael Eisner.
And Michael Ovitz was put on a side by this guy and suffered a waterslide in his life.
Coincidentally, the two actually have the same name.
At this time, the president of Disney directly interrupted Shirley Lansing and smiled: "Lansing, thank you! However, I still know Cheng, in this Hollywood, I don't think people who don't know Cheng, it shouldn't exist! Hello, Cheng, it's a pleasure to meet you!"
Wu Cheng shook hands with him and said with a smile: "I'm also very happy to meet you, this is my wife Anji." Wu Cheng took the opportunity to introduce Zhao Yazhi beside him.
The old man complimented Zhao Yazhi, then looked at Wu Cheng and smiled: "I wonder if Cheng is interested in cooperating with our Disney?"
Wu Cheng couldn't help but look at the old man with some surprise when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "I don't know if there is anything worth cooperating between our DreamWorks and Disney. Aren't you Disney generally making underage movies and animations?"
In Wu Cheng's memory, it seems that before Eisner took the stage, Disney has been working children's animation. There may be adult movies, but the proportion is much smaller, almost equal to none.
"Of course, I'm not talking about DreamWorks, I'm talking about children's toys!"
"Musical toys?"
"Yes, Transformers, to be exact. ”
Now Wu Cheng knew what their idea was, "What does Mr. Walker mean is that he wants to adapt "Transformers" and make a feature-length animated movie?"
"Yes, I wonder if Cheng is interested?"
Wu Chengwei smiled and said, "Don't hide it from Mr. Walker, our animation company is actually already making preparations in this regard." Although this piece can't be compared with your Disney, I think if it's a collaboration on production, there is not much need. ”
When Walker heard this, his eyes flashed, and he smiled: "I heard that I said, you don't need to cooperate in production, so you can cooperate in distribution, right?"
Wu Cheng spread his hands and said with a smile: "Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that in the animated film, whether it is production or distribution, Disney is the first song." If Disney wants to, we can cooperate in the distribution. ”
Walker nodded and said, "I'll go back and think about this matter carefully." ”
As long as it is not a direct refusal, there is still a chance to cooperate.
In any case, in terms of animated films, Disney is indeed the current world giant.
Before Pixar didn't appear, Disney was the boss of this piece.
Although DreamWorks also has its own distribution channels, it is clear that there is still a blank slate when it comes to animation. But there is no way to do it, DreamWorks has been established for too short a time, and I never thought of working on animation before.
Fengyun Animation Company, on the Xiangjiang side, can indeed sit firmly in the top spot of the Xiangjiang Animation Society, but looking at the world, it is still just a small shrimp.
However, Wu Cheng is not in a hurry, the future is the world of 3D animation, although there is still a market for 2D animation, but in the movie, it is definitely not as good as 3D animation.
"Hey, Cheng, Anshi, Lansing......" At this time, Lei Shidong walked over with a wine glass and a spring breeze, and when he saw Walker, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Mr. Walker, you are also there!"
Walker smiled slightly, and then smiled at Lei Shidong and said, "Mr. Lei Shidong, I heard that you have been in frequent contact with the senior management of Baofeng Investment Company recently, so you don't want to buy any theater chain!"
Lei Shidong and Walker touched their glasses, and laughed: "What Mr. Walker said is true, but I am also interested in those theaters under the name of Disney! I don't know ...... Mr. Walker."
Walker shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Mr. Lei Shidong is joking, those theaters are not our Disney industry, if Mr. Lei Shidong is interested, you might as well contact the bosses behind the scenes of those theaters, if they are willing to sell the theaters, I am still very willing to cooperate with Mr. Lei Shidong......"
Wu Chengxiao watched them chat, and it didn't take long for Walker to see Spielberg, and then said goodbye to Wu Cheng with a wine glass, and walked towards Spielberg.
Wu Cheng knew that Spielberg was in the original time and space, and after filming 'aliens', he soon added another identity - a film producer, and also served as a producer of cartoons.
The movie "Aliens" let everyone see Spielberg's talent in dealing with emotions and comedy, and I believe Walker also saw this.
Although Wu Cheng doesn't know whether Spielberg has made animated films for Disney, this does not prevent Walker from being optimistic about Spielberg.
Saw Walker leave. Lei Shidong breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "This guy is really an old fox with a keen sense of smell, and he almost saw it!"
Wu Cheng smiled when he heard this: "So, some things are a good way to leave them to others to deal with, isn't it?
Shirley Lansing listened and asked curiously, "Boss, what are you talking about?"
Wu Cheng smiled: "Let's talk about this later, now is not the time to talk about it." As he spoke, he looked at Lei Shidong again and said, "You should also be careful, don't say anything about leaking!"
"Don't worry, I'm going to go back and contact Tony on the phone!" Lei Shidong smiled and said, "By the way, the work on our side is almost ready, so, when are you going to take over my theater line?"
"Wow, Mr. Lei Shidong, have you really thought about it?
Lei Shidong shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Of course! I've got my next target ready!"
Wu Cheng smiled and said, "I've been ready for a long time, and I can sign a contract at any time!"
Zhao Yazhi: "......" (to be continued.) )
