Wang Jie stayed in Xiangjiang for more than 20 days before returning to Los Angeles, during which time in addition to checking the latest situation of DreamWorks, the main focus was on Li Bingbing and Li Qiao, after some hard work, Wang Jie also successfully won the sisters.

After a combination of double cultivation, Li Bingbing and Li Liang's second bridge between heaven and earth was also opened up by Wang Jie, Wang Jie stuffed Li Bingbing into the crew of "East Evil and West Poison", replacing Yang Caini as an orphan girl, I believe that the king of sunglasses will be able to stimulate Li Bingbing's potential, and Li Bingbing broke into Hollywood with a ruthlessness that did not admit defeat.

On June 8, 1993, Wang Jie returned to Los Angeles with Li Zhang, and after spending two days to complete Li Jie's enrollment procedures, Wang Jie's "Forrest Gump" was officially released this summer.

In fact, with the complete end of the later stage of "Forrest Gump", the first trailer was released on major TV stations on April 14, and printed posters were also distributed to occupy various movie theaters, convenience stores and bus stops. Nicole Kidman, who was in charge of the entire publicity work, also had people buy a billboard dozens of feet high in Times Square, and put Hanks's classic poster sitting on a chair looking back on it, which attracted a lot of attention.

Wang Jie naturally strongly supports this, he remembers that the original version of "Forrest Gump" encountered an unfavorable start after its release, and after increasing investment in marketing and the quality of the movie itself, the situation was quickly reversed. With the lessons of the past, he certainly wouldn't make such a mistake.

invested heavily in marketing, coupled with ABC's unsparing publicity, even CNN, as a professional news network, took advantage of a loophole to mention two sentences, this is the benefit of having its own TV station, and "Forrest Gump" has naturally become a hot topic among Americans after dinner this summer. With the addition of super-director, Hollywood mogul, and the already famous Tom Hanks, the plot runs through the past four decades, and it sounds fascinating.

"It's fascinating, but sometimes the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. A certain host said so in his own program, saying that there are dissenting opinions, or to put it mildly, everywhere.

"I don't agree with this film at all, he changed the original novel beyond recognition. It's a pity that this ironic original work, he wrote it like I wrote it!" A reporter interviewed the famous writer Glum Wins. Suddenly, the old man said with some unevenness.

Wang Jie doesn't respond to these things, even if there are a lot of reporters near the villa, and those who like to fabricate are basically tabloids, and the more they pay attention to them, the more they will become more energetic.

As for the movie itself, it doesn't matter how many people are skeptical about "Forrest Gump", Wang Jie, who personally supervised the production of the post-production and participated in the internal test screening, can be sure that 90% of these voices will disappear after the release.

The premiere of Forrest Gump was scheduled at Hollywood's famous Chinese Theatre, which, frankly, is more Thai-style — except for the two stone lions at the door, but considering that it was inaugurated in the '20s, Grauman had never been to China, and his Chinese-American friend was born in Seattle, so it was not surprising that he did so.

Because of the effective publicity and the new work of the super director, the film has not only attracted the attention of many media, but also many big names at the premiere. Well-known movie stars, directors, producers and executives of major film companies abound, so gathered together, in addition to the big investment works of large companies, you can also see it here in Wang Jie.

"It's not fair to say that, you know I did it on purpose, it has nothing to do with listening to 'I think of a mildly mentally handicapped person when I speak', I can sue you, William, I can sue you for defamation. Tom Hanks pointed at Wang Jie and said with annoyance.

"I didn't say that, I just said that when I hear your voice, I think of Forrest Gump, and even if it's slander, you should be slandering Forrest Gump, right, Tommy. Wang Jie showed an innocent look, which immediately made the other cast and crew around him laugh.

"But Tommy's voice is really good, otherwise John wouldn't have thought of asking you to voice Woody, which fits the character quite well. Wang Jie then said.

Hanks shook his head helplessly at him, and had to take the initiative to change the subject: "That's a good animated movie." ”

"Indeed, I bet Elizabeth would love it, especially when it was voiced by her own father. Wang Jie didn't dwell on the previous topic, and continued with Hanks.

After a few more words, after a hint from his wife, Rita Wilson, Hanks immediately took his leave and left: "Then we'll talk later, William, and I'll have to deal with those reporters on stage." ”

"Go ahead, leave me alone. Wang Jie nodded, and then saw Hanks glance at the girl next to him, and showed him a somewhat meaningful look.

It's no wonder that Wang Jie's current name is as world-renowned as his directorial talent. Although Hanks was not less romantic when he was young, and he was married twice, he was still very disciplined after confirming his official girlfriend. So as a friend, he thinks that it would be better for him to remind Wang Jie a little.

Gave a "I see, thanks." After that, Wang Jie watched Hanks leave with his wife, and then turned his gaze to Nicole beside him. The golden hair is coiled high behind the head, the blue eyes are shining, the white goose neck is unreservedly exposed, a black sleeveless dress, and there is an exclamation point on the chest.

"Let's go over there. After hugging Nicole and chatting with a few people he knew, Wang Jie said.

"Okay. Nicole Kidman said with a smile, wrapping his arms tightly around him like a girl grabbing her skirt.

It is always difficult to guess the minds of women, they always seem to be in a kind of childhood and naivety, and they always hope that Wang Jie, a lover, can always be by their side.

"Ha, so you're here, William, no wonder I don't see you anywhere. As Wang Jie and Nicole sat down in the unoccupied place of the bar, a familiar voice entered their ears.

"Hi Steven, I'm so sorry, I didn't see you either, I hope you don't get mad about it. Wang Jie immediately smiled and shook hands with the other party, and Nicole also greeted politely: "I'm so glad to see you, Mr. Spielberg." ”

Now in Hollywood, except for Steven Spielberg and a few other people, no one can make her so respectful, as one of the managers of Wang Jie's film company, Nicole Kidman's authority is not the same as the original time and space.

"How can I be angry, I know why you can't see me. Spielberg said jokingly, then looked at Nicole with appreciation, and Nicole suddenly looked a little shy.

"Can you get us two glasses of champagne, my dear?" said Wang Jie, patting Nicole's shoulder.

"No problem. Knowing they had something to say, Nicole nodded, turning and walking to the other end of the bar.

Seeing Nicole walking away, Spielberg retracted his gaze and looked at Wang Jie and teased: "I really don't know how you let all women coexist peacefully, you must teach me both hands when you have time." ”

"I'm afraid you won't learn, Steven. Wang Jie smiled, "Wait a minute, after the premiere, if you have any opinions on my new work, you can give a little bit of advice." ”

Spielberg didn't speak, and after looking at Wang Jie for a long time, he sighed again: "Frankly speaking, standing in front of you, I suddenly have a delusion, I feel that I am very old, and Hollywood is already your world." ”

"How is that possible?" Wang Jie laughed, "You are not yet fifty years old, far from old age, Steven, you still have enough time to embed your name in the history of film in this world." ”

He knew why the other party made such an exclamation, only eight or nine years ago, he was just a rookie director, and people's impression of him was just a rich boy who loved to play and make trouble. However, a few years later, he is already a big name in Hollywood, his directing talent is also world-renowned, and he has three of the eight major Hollywood film companies, and now he can only let the other party look up.

Spielberg has seen a lot of talented and capable young people in Hollywood, but there is only one young man like Wang Jie who is both talented and capable, and has the vision to turn stones into gold and grabs huge power in a short period of time.

"What are you talking about?" said Nicole, who had three glasses of champagne, and walked back.

"Nothing, some movie stuff. Wang Jie replied.

"I was about to ask William if there are any good script recommendations. Spielberg said.

"You didn't say that. Wang Jie looked at him with some surprise.

"Of course, if I say that, God knows if you're going to drive me away. Spielberg joked again.

Wang Jie couldn't help but shrug his shoulders, "It just so happens that I have an idea now, and I'll tell you about it." ”

Spielberg smiled, "Thank you so much." ”

At that moment, Wang Jie told the plot of "Saving the Soldier".

……

I have to say that the beginning of the movie is indeed exquisite, in the light music, a white feather flutters in the wind, from the sky to the city, from the city to the trees, from the trees to the streets, from the streets to the shoes of the protagonist. is a very simple shot, and it is also very simple to arouse the curiosity of the audience.

Next, of course, Forrest Gump was introduced through the camera, just a few words, a somewhat wooden and honest man suddenly jumped on the screen, Tom Hanks's acting skills are really excellent. Then, the memories began, and the plot at the beginning didn't have much brilliance, but the plot of Forrest Gump's mother had to cooperate with the principal in order to let her son enter a normal school.

Soon, though, the first jaw-dropping easter egg appeared: Elvis Presley invented the swing dance because of Forrest Gump, and although the tenant's face was blurred and there was no frontal shot, Forrest Gump's dance steps and the subsequent image on the TV in the street window pointed to this.

"This is too exaggerated!" Wang Jie, who returned to his seat in the theater, obviously heard someone muttering in front of him.

"How did you come up with the idea of arranging such a plot?" Nicole couldn't help but ask in a low voice in his ear, the heat blowing into his ears and tickling very sultry.

"Don't worry, there's more interesting plot ahead. Wang Jie smiled and patted her thigh.

That's right, and that's soon followed by a series of interesting episodes that put Forrest Gump in historical events, such as the rejection of black admissions in Alabama, or Kennedy's borrowing from the national college star team, and putting it in the bathroom of the White House, with pictures of Kennedy and Monroe, and so on. Every time this kind of episode occurs, whether it's Forrest Gump waving to the camera at the gate of the university or saying "I want to pee" to Kennedy, it will elicit uncontrollable laughter.

Of course, these are only a small part of Forrest Gump's experience, and while telling these stories, the characters have gradually become fuller, and the two most important women in his life, his mother and Jenny, have also been highlighted.

If at the beginning, the audience still regarded the movie as a story with the theme of retardation, then after Forrest Gump's characteristics were shown one by one, they have gradually changed this opinion.

Especially when Forrest Gump enlisted in the army and replied to the sergeant who was in charge of them: "I am a soldier to listen to your orders." Then after getting a comment of "You're a fucking genius, Gan! Your IQ is at least 150 or more, I'm going to recommend you to go to a military school", laughter rang out in the hall again, and then a small voice came from not far behind Wang Jie: "It's a bit like "Rain Man", mentally retarded but strong in some ways, but more interesting and attractive......"

Before he finished speaking, the guy closed his mouth, because all the people around him cast angry eyes, not because he said something wrong, but because he thought that he was disturbing everyone's enjoyment of the movie, and it can be seen from here that the audience has completely integrated into it.

What followed was naturally the Vietnam War, which was painful for all Americans, and Lieutenant Dan, one of the three most important people in Forrest Gump's life, also appeared. Lieutenant Dan's appearance is very interesting, when Forrest Gump introduces that his family has been killed in every war in the United States, the montage switches continuously, and the same person plays Lieutenant Dan's family members who have fallen to the ground again and again and died, from the Revolutionary War to World War II, which once again made the theater burst into laughter.

However, it is precisely this introduction that makes the audience understand why Lieutenant Dan always has a feeling of anger towards Forrest Gump after he was rescued, why Forrest Gump will yell "I should die here" when he runs away with him, and then those perverse and crazy behaviors have a reasonable explanation. While the audience sighed, they also began to become thoughtful.

The story continues to develop, returning home from injury, being received by Nixon, participating in anti-war demonstrations in a daze, and then reuniting with Jenny. Forrest Gump has been involved in a growing number of historical events, such as being a whistleblower for the Watergate scandal, or participating in table tennis on a trip to China, a Soviet-like playing venue, and a cut discussion with John Lennon about China, all of which made the audience sigh.

Although so many years have passed and so much has happened, Forrest Gump's love for his mother, his love for Jenny, and his friendship with Lieutenant Dan have never changed, and he has even taken on the life of the Babu family. Even though he suffered numerous failures in the process of shrimp fishing, he still insisted on not flinching.

"Stupid people do stupid things. When someone says he's stupid, he always answers like this, which is as impressive as the sentence "Life is like chocolate, you never know what the next one will taste like".

Eventually, Forrest Gump's efforts paid off, and in the face of the storm, all the shrimp boats were destroyed, except for the Jenny, and he and Lieutenant Dan made a fortune as a result.

The movie is not just about Forrest Gump's life, interspersed with Jenny and Lieutenant Dan, in contrast, Lieutenant Dan, who is bent on fighting for the honor of his family, thinks that he should die on the battlefield, and thinks that he is useless after being crippled, and Jenny, who pursues freedom and self, mixes with hippies, and is a drug addict and ***. On the contrary, after deciding on his goal, Forrest Gump, who persevered without distractions, achieved success, which has to be said to be meaningful.

Eventually, Lieutenant Dan was redeemed, and a tired Jenny returned to Forrest Gump, but she still didn't fully understand until Forrest Gump finally got angry.

"I'm a fool, but I know what love is. Forrest Gump said indignantly.

The voice of embarrassment sounded in the screening room, and many people felt worthless for Forrest Gump, who could love a woman like him, for more than ten years? Even Nicole next to Wang Jie was slightly distracted.

Although in his eyes, Adrian didn't pay much attention to it, the reason why movies are attractive is that they can show those things that are impossible in life on the big screen, or things with few chances, and what you can't get is the best. Every woman will hope that a man will wait for her for the rest of her life, and every woman has a thirst for romance in her heart, but reality is reality after all, and sooner or later she will wake up from her dreams, and Hollywood women will wake up faster.

Jenny said goodbye, and the sad Forrest Gump began to run through the north and south of the United States, still participating in the history of the United States in his own unique way—cultural shirts, the insurance industry, and so on.

Finally, Jenny returns to Forrest Gump and brings him a smart child. Although the bug here is obvious, Jenny is clearly alluding to AIDS when she says that she is infected with a virus and may die soon. In this case, although AIDS is not contagious by shaking hands, it is easy to pass on to the next generation, so how healthy can Forrest Gump's child be?

However, the audience has chosen to ignore this problem, in these two hours of playing, Forrest Gump's spirit has infected them, even if there is such a small bug, it doesn't matter, Forrest Gump deserves his own happiness.

Towards the end of the story, Forrest Gump and Jenny get married, and although her mother has gone to heaven, the black housekeeper sees the scene in her place. Lieutenant Dan also came, and saw Jenny for the first time, everything was so calm and beautiful, even though Jenny left Forrest Gump soon and completely, he was not alone, he still had his own children who could go to school.

The familiar light music sounded again, and the white feathers that had fallen from the pages of the book on the shoes floated up again, flying higher and higher, and finally into the blue sky.
