"Sister Bingbing, how is Director Wang? I mean, serious?" Zhang Hanyu and Li Bingbing sat on the sofa in the living room and asked Li Bingbing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Don't be nervous, Director Wang is a very good person. By the way, you still ask me, didn't Director Wang support you some time ago?" Li Bingbing said.

"I ...... I was a pure coincidence, and I can't really ......," Zhang Hanyu said.

The two were waiting for Wang Meng's summons in the living room, while Sun Honglei, who arrived first, was meeting Wang Meng, Michael and others.

Although it was an internal appointment, Wang Meng still asked the main members of the crew to inspect the candidates he selected.

Michael Bay, along with Kevin and Wu Juan, among others, were very satisfied with the performance of Sun Honglei, who played the original white bald actor with the name (Seifer) in the play, and now codenamed Scorpion.

"Brother Red Thunder did a good job, congratulations on getting this role. Wang Meng congratulated.

Sun Honglei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, although it was an internal decision, he was still very happy after it was determined.

"Thank you, Director Wang, thank you, thank you. "Sun Honglei doesn't look scary, but at this time, he just squeezed out his kind eyes.

"However, your English has been getting in touch lately, especially the dialogue in the script. Wang Meng finally said.

"Okay, I will. Sun Honglei hurriedly agreed.

After Brother Honglei went out, Wang Meng said to Wu Juan: "Don't say it, Sun Honglei showed the appearance of the villain vividly and exquisitely just now!"

"Huh...... It's true, it's really the best bad guy candidate. Wu Juan said.

"Director, what are you talking about, can you speak English?" said Michael on the side, and Kevin was speechless.

"Ok, I said that Sun Honglei is very suitable for playing a villain, he looks too ...... You get the idea. Wang Meng waved his hand.

"On, I don't understand, I can't understand the faces of the Chinese, I just see that Sun's acting skills are good." Michael shrugged in disapproval.

Wang Meng and Wu Juan glanced at each other and smiled bitterly at each other.

What Michael said is true, it seems that Europeans and Americans have face blindness, just like we look at foreigners, and we really can't see where the European and American men who are known as 'big handsome guys' are handsome.

"Okay, Michael, let's take a look at the Suvicki I chose (also Suvicki in the play), and the tank candidate.

After Li Bingbing and Zhang Hanyu came in, Wang Meng explained to everyone.

"This is Zhang Hanyu, the actor of 'Tank' in the play and the actor of Brother Tank in the play 'Dauser' (here is not a biological brother, it belongs to adoption, the elder brother is black, and the younger brother Tank is a yellow race, that is, Zhang Hanyu), the two are real humans in Kunlun City (Zion City Base). Wang Meng pointed to Zhang Hanyu and explained to everyone.

pointed to Li Bingbing and said: "This beauty is the actor of Su Weiqi in the play." How about you take a look?"

After Wang Meng finished explaining, he sat down.

The casting director and Michael and others briefly examined the performance of the two, and after half an hour, everyone reluctantly accepted the two to join.

Wang Meng also breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that if someone disagreed, it would be embarrassing.

And in the afternoon, Doug, the black actor who played (Dowser), came, and the important supporting agent Smith Hugo Weaving also came.

It wasn't until February 19 that the cast was officially confirmed.

The news has been released, and the whole world is boiling.

"Silently, it has already been selected, I didn't expect that there are Sun Honglei, Zhang Hanyu, Li Bingbing, Pan Hong and Jackie Chan, this lineup is too strong, with an investment of 80 million US dollars, DreamWorks and Huayi United, are you looking forward to it this year?"

"It's incredible, such a strong cast, such a strong investment, especially in the sci-fi and action genre. I don't know if you know Michael Bay, who is known as a 'bomb maniac' and a 'blockbuster professional'. There is considerable research on the big scene and the explosion scene, and after the joint Wang Meng, it is worth looking forward to. -- Netizen.

"$80 million!"

"Sci-fi blockbuster!"

"Hollywood's top star directors join!"

"The most anticipated movie of the year!"

In the media, online. After DreamWorks released the news, it quickly shook everyone's hearts, and they were surprised by DreamWorks' boldness.

"Some time ago, I invested 100 million US dollars to set up the animation 3D movie "Kung Fu Panda", and not long after, I set up an 80 million US dollar production "The Matrix". - [Magic City Times].

"Whether the successive big projects are blind or confident, we will wait and see. ”

……

Not only in China, but also in the United States, the media was also surprised after the news was announced by DreamWorks Summit Entertainment.

"With Hollywood's top director Michael Bay, top actress Scarlett Johansson, well-known Hollywood black actor Lawrence Fishburne, and well-known actor Hugo Weaving joined, "The Matrix" jointly invested by China's top production company DreamWorks and its subsidiary DreamWorks Summit Entertainment was officially established, with an investment of 80 million US dollars. According to reliable sources, the digital field, a well-known Hollywood special effects company, has received an order from DreamWorks and will join the production ...... of "The Matrix" special effects" - [Hollywood Weekly].

"The much-anticipated movie "The Matrix", the equally worrying movie "The Matrix""

"Michael Bay and Scarlett's collaboration again, despite the magical king, as for the outcome, wait and see. ”

"God, Michael Bay screwed up the $144 million Pearl Harbor, the $126 million Escape from Clone Island, and now has joined the $80 million The Matrix. I have to say that this 'blockbuster professional household' is indeed very lucky, of course, we also wish DreamWorks a long way, everyone knows ......"

Wang dreamed that the news would raise questions after it was released.

For this reason, Michael Bay and Scarlett were very worried, and Wang Meng also explained in many ways to reassure the two.

Even Michael proposed five days later the boot ceremony himself did not attend.

But Wang Meng refused.

"Michael, remember, this is China, not the United States, and the reporter won't embarrass me too much, do you want to believe me?" Wang Meng is confident.

If the opening ceremony is held in the United States, it will definitely be difficult for Hollywood bastards, but it is difficult to say in China.

Holding a kick-off ceremony in China, it is natural that there are the most Chinese journalists, as long as Chinese journalists are afraid of what?

Michael asked, "Are you sure, King?"

"Of course, trust me man. Feel relieved. Besides, you're an assistant director, and even if something goes wrong, it's not your business, you're just using your experience in a lot of big productions to teach me a side that I don't understand, yes, I don't see you as an assistant director, if you want, you can treat you as a teacher. Wang Meng said in his heart.

Originally, Michael was fooled by himself, and he has real skills.

The creation of Transformers, the first part of which is more than 700 million dollars, to the later the original higher, this is a real skill. Compared to experience, Wang Meng can't compare to Michael Bay.

It's nothing more than that now he is very unlucky, and the successive failed works have filled him with doubts, believing that it is only a temporary ordeal, and there is a day when he will rise again.

"Man, I didn't take you to my subordinates, I took you as a friend, believe me, I can handle it in China. "Wang Meng.

Michael Bay was convinced, and a little touched.

After dissuading Michael, Wang Meng said: "Let's go, man, go see our 'Hope', and he will appear with us when the time comes." ”

The "Hope" is the "Nebuganezzar" in the play, which has become the "Hope" made in China.

This 8 meters long, three meters wide, two meters high big guy, is a month to make in a hurry, of course, it is a flower shelf, in addition to the needs of simple shooting, in addition to the need for special effects, processed into a 45 meters long and wide, 12 meters high, 15 meters of battleship.

When the time comes, it will be shipped to the press conference of the start-up ceremony in advance.

Of course, in the first "Matrix", the "Hope" did not leave the country much, and the key is that the second "Matrix - Reloaded" and the third "The Matrix - Matrix Leather Destiny" will shine.

The two of them came up to a big guy who was stepping up his welding.

"This guy spent nearly $1 million. Wang Meng said to Michael.

"I think it's very valuable, and maybe in the future he will become a work of art that opinion collectors want to get. Michael Dow.

When Wang Meng heard this, he felt that it was an eye-opener. When the time comes, you can contact the toy company to develop this kind of battleship, as well as the mechanical squid in the play.

The two of them who turned around were finally relieved, and they waited for the start-up ceremony five days later.
