In addition to the daily commercial activities of the Fire Lion Group on Shoest, there is another important event that has attracted wide attention in the industry, that is, the internal preview of Sid's new film "Spider-Man".

As the first A-level production to be promoted globally by Fire Lion itself, this is also Sid's first A-level production after "Harry Potter", so you can imagine how much attention it will receive.

Although "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" quickly stopped at the global box office of $1.091 billion after breaking through one billion dollars, far from the record of 1.8 billion in "Titanic", this shocking box office result is enough to make everyone look forward to Sid's next movie.

Although it is still early, the Fire Lion has carried out the first wave of publicity for the film since the Super Bowl this year, and the advertisements on the Super Bowl have successfully caused a good response among fans.

So now cinema operators at home and abroad are also impatient to see the face of the feature film, and for another bigger plan, the fire lion has also implemented extremely strict confidentiality measures, except for cinema companies and other business negotiation partners, other media have been turned away.

Under such high secrecy conditions, it naturally aroused the curiosity of the media, and it is said that in the internal negotiations afterwards, the theater operators at home and abroad were extremely enthusiastic to contact the team of Fire Lion Pictures, but although in South America and Europe, Fire Lion began to gradually take the initiative.

However, in the global promotion of "Spider-Man" and the promotion and distribution of the Pacific Rim Asia region, it is still necessary to cooperate with Columbia Pictures.

Columbia Pictures, which has already been tied to the chariot by "Harry Potter", obviously has no more room for bargaining, not to mention being able to earn an extra distribution commission, which is also a good deal for them.

After the Shoest show at the end of March and the beginning of April, Sid immediately returned to Canada to continue filming "The Departed", and Hollywood, which had already ended the awards season, was once again in a busy state for a year.

On the other hand, Fire Lion TV also took advantage of the spring breeze in April to start its second talk show - "Jimmy Canmore Late Night Talk Show".

As Jimmy Canmore, who has been working in many small and medium-sized TV branches and radio stations, although he has accumulated a lot of comedy and hosting experience, many people still have a cautious attitude towards him as a talk show independently.

Even within the Fire Lion TV station, there is skepticism about his not-so-glamorous resume and experience, although because the matter is led by Sid, so the fire lion TV station still has the green light for the project.

But even Jimmy Canmore himself knows that if his performance is not good and the show is not rated enough, then it will not be as simple as losing face.

"How's it going? Nervous. Before going on the stage, the producer of the talk show asked.

"Yes, a little. Jimmy Canmore, the little fresh meat version, scratched his head a little nervously.

"Take it easy, if you're too nervous, other people will notice your nervousness, and that's not good. The producer smiled and patted Jimmy Canmore on the shoulder.

At this time, a text message suddenly reached his mobile phone, and he opened it to see that it was a simple and clear sentence: "Come on, Jimmy." ”

The SMS call was none other than Sid.

Jimmy Canmore, who was still nervous and trembling just now, suddenly felt a sense of confidence, he nodded to the producer, and then walked out of the backstage steadily, "Good evening everyone, welcome to "Jimmy Canmore Late Night Talk Show", I'm Jimmy Canmore!"

————————————————————

During Sid's absence, the filming of "The Departed" was not actually suspended, and like most Hollywood crews, Sid also divided the "Departed" crew into two groups, A and B, he led the A group that shot the main shots, and when he was away, assistant director Justin Lin led the B team to shoot auxiliary shots all over Canada.

Although Sid also wants to focus on one thing when he wants to make movies like Nolan and others, but with the growing growth of the Fire Lion Group, he is also destined to be impossible to be like an ordinary director, or rather, it is already a rare thing for a person in Sid's position to be so "willful" to shoot movies in person.

Therefore, the core members of the crew, under the leadership of Justin Lin, also carried out the filming work in Sid's absence.

And with Sid's return, the filming of "The Departed" is officially on track, and the four major male protagonists have also joined the crew one after another, and this big-name film has finally begun to have a little star-studded aura.

In addition to normal shooting, the biggest focus in filming is really on the performances and opponents of several leading actors.

Will Smith was the first to be on the crew, and after a few actors who played the younger version, he also took on the lead role.

Today's performance is one of Will Smith's main scenes, and when he finishes his pasta in the house, he prepares to go out to meet Commissioner Roy (Al Pacino).

But when going out, "Joe" played by Heath Ledger and another gang are playing a game of "guess who is the policeman", although this paragraph is not much different from the original script, but Sid also added an introduction to the chat movie in front of it in order to make the plot appear more natural.

From the famous movie "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner", when Will Smith went out, Heath Ledger's fool Joe pointed straight at him and said, "You're a cop!"

Will Smith was stunned on the spot!

In front of the camera, his face was expressionless for a while, but there was a hint of panic in his eyes, and a sense of tension hidden beneath the surface immediately came out.

But as a veteran undercover agent, he would never act rashly until he was sure that the matter was completely revealed, so Will Smith could only force himself to pretend not to know.

It was such a hesitation that saved his life!

Because then the fool Joe told him, "We're playing 'Guess who's the cop.'" ”

Hearing this, Will Smith's expression immediately relaxed. In order to hide his panic, he also scolded casually, "Sh--, you guys are so boring." ”

In this paragraph, although Will Smith is not in place all at once, after many performances and Sid's details, Will Smith's performance has grown significantly, although he has not yet played against several other protagonists, but he has faintly revealed the style of Emperor Shi in the future.

This finally made Sid secretly relieved.
