As the report of the "New York Times" continued to ferment, the name Cheng Xiaoyu began to get rid of the fixed image of modest and low-key director Cheng in the United States, and caused a huge shock in China. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Two years ago, they were still complacent because Cheng Xiaoyu, the spoiler, left the United States, and felt that "Shanghe" fell from the altar, and the Chinese music scene would inevitably enter a situation of separation, but what they thought was that it would usher in a long-term depression in the record industry.

The film industry is thriving, and the overall box office is getting higher and higher year by year, but all Huaxia film companies are scum compared to Cheng Xiaoyu's "Xichu", and the cumulative global box office of Xichu last year reached 4.1 billion US dollars, about 28 billion Huaxia coins.

In 2014, a total of 388 films were released in China, with a total box office of 6.7 billion US dollars (a total of 46.9 billion yuan), a growth rate of 36%. The North American film market grossed $13.3 billion for the year, and the global film market grossed $44.5 billion.

The global box office of the "Xichu" family is two-thirds of the total box office of Huaxia, the world's second largest market, and this data makes Cheng Xiaoyu's Chinese counterparts speechless, they have no way to be proud and happy for Cheng Xiaoyu, nor have the ability to criticize and question.

The performance of "Xichu" this year is a miracle, the box office ranking of global film companies, Xichu only ranks behind Sony Pictures with a gap of 338 million US dollars, and Sony ranks first in Hollywood and the global annual box office with a total revenue of 4.438 billion US dollars.

After this series of data was reported by the media, Cheng Xiaoyu and his entertainment empire were pushed to the forefront.

"His modesty and low profile are just pride in his bones, he is ambitious and fearless, he always moves forward in doubt and plans impossible miracles - he is Cheng Xiaoyu, maybe he is a miracle. - "Whispering Headlines"

"We should be glad that Cheng Xiaoyu left 'Shanghe', his success in that already decaying record company will be more difficult in the future, Shanghe can't be his help, it can only become his burden. - "GG Net Entertainment Headlines"

However, Cheng Xiaoyu's news basically only appeared on the Internet this time, and most of the print media remained silent, after all, someone in the Su family had privately notified the major official media and print media, and it was best not to post Cheng Xiaoyu-related news.

In the United States, Cheng Xiaoyu has been reported by the media as a fearless planner facing difficulties, although most industry insiders are skeptical about his future.

"If Xichu can focus on the small and medium-cost film business, and is not so eager to make blockbusters and raise the banner of the three-D business, then it will definitely become a first-class company" - "Hollywood Observer".

Now even the "Hollywood Big Six" have to face up to Cheng Xiaoyu and his "Xichu Pictures".

"Now, Cheng Xiaoyu's problem is that he spreads the stall too big, as if he is in a hurry, they do all kinds of things, I don't understand why Cheng Xiaoyu is doing this, he is still so young, he has time!" -- Avery Stone, president of Twentieth Century Fox.

"Director Cheng and his cartoons and theme parks are not and will not be Disney's opponents. -- Disney President Robert Iger said after learning that "Frozen" exceeded one billion at the global box office and became the world's highest-grossing animated film.

"We had a very happy cooperation in the early stage, and Cheng's acquisition of EMI EMI actually didn't have much to do with Universal Pictures, it was a Universal record thing. I just want to say that Cheng is a very good and intelligent director and businessman, you see he has been creating miracles and trying to gain space for his entertainment empire to grow by breaking boundaries, but the effect is not as big as he imagined, he knows that it is impossible to break through easily in the entertainment jungle controlled by the 'behemoths', so he gambled on "Titanic" And the 3D business, in my opinion, this is really a bit irrational, he has already established himself in the quagmire of Hollywood, as long as he does not make fatal mistakes, he should have a more brilliant future, but unfortunately now he has put himself in the most dangerous situation. —Carl Lemmer, president of Universal Pictures.

"This is different from the last time, the last time the 'digital field' was not indispensable for Sony, but the 'EMI EMI' is an important part of Sony's complete global music map, so Sony will not give EMI to Cheng this time. As for Cheng, a young man, luck and talent are available, but luck will not always follow him, no matter how the film "Titanic" is filmed, in the case that all industry insiders are not optimistic, betting on 3D is a fatal mistake, Sony is ready to acquire the 'digital field' again, maybe next year 'Xichu' will also become Sony's name......" - Michael Linton, president of Sony.

The phone call requesting an interview with Cheng Xiaoyu has ruined "Xichu Pictures" and "Voice of the Rain", but the unified reply is that Cheng Xiaoyu is filming on the set and can't spare time for an interview.

Seeing that Valentine's Day is getting closer and closer, the filming of "Titanic" is about to end in about a month, this time in order to catch up with the schedule, Cheng Xiaoyu even spent the Lunar New Year in Monterrey, but on the day of the Lunar New Year, more than 2,000 people in the crew ate a meal of dumplings from China.

There was only one person who didn't eat it, and that was Catherine Blanchett.

The disturbances from the outside world did not bother Cheng Xiaoyu, but Catherine Blanchett's disagreement with herself and her absence brought trouble to Cheng Xiaoyu.

The day before Valentine's Day, the camera caught the protagonists Jack and Ruth on their first date, which was a disastrous moment for a girl like Catherine Blanchett who hadn't had time to go on a real date.

The play was filmed in the third class cabin of the big ship, and in addition to the brothers and sisters Leonardo and Catherine, there were hundreds of ensembles to accompany them, and the low-class passengers who were composed of actors in civilian costumes also held parties.

The male protagonist Jack is invited to a dinner party after saving Ruth, after which he rejects Carl's proposal to smoke a cigar, quietly stuffs a note to Ruth, and then takes her to the third class for the "real ball".

Cheng Xiaoyu shouted "action!", several worker-like people beat the tambourine, although the action is not standardized, but the rhythm of the drum is clear and powerful, standing behind the tambourine are two bagpipers, the sound of Irish national style bagpipes melodiously spread throughout the narrow cabin.

The space here is far less spacious than the upper-class ballroom, and there are no carved decorations and artworks, except for a few tables and wooden chairs, which is a flat ground for third-class passengers to dance and play.

It was crowded and everyone got into the groove and began to speak as loudly as they could, waving their hands and feet to stretch their limbs as if they were actually at a party.

The smell of inferior tobacco filled the room, and a pair of gray-haired, wrinkled old men danced a traditional folk dance to the beat of bagpipes and tambourine, and they danced to their heart's content, albeit sluggishly and even uncoordinated.

It's as if there were only two of them on the entire Titanic...

Cheng Xiaoyu looked at the monitor and had to be amazed by the wonderful performances of these group performances, real and devoted, and at this moment he had the illusion that he was on the big ship in 1912.

A pair of young men and women held hands and started a pas de deux, it seemed that they had just met new travel companions on the Titanic, the young man asked the girl a little shyly, "Can you put your hands here," apparently he was going to put his arm around the girl's waist, the girl nodded generously, and the two began to dance. After a few minutes, the young couple was spinning freely, like dance partners for many years.

Whether it's a country woman wrapped in a scarf, or a handyman with messy hair, a slender maiden, or a rude and tall man, whether an English-speaking, Spanish-speaking or Swedish-speaking man, the people here are uninhibited and carefree.

At this point, the camera slowly shifts to Catherine Blanchett, and it is her turn to play the main character, Ruth, and Jack brings Ruth to the table, and then Jack jumps onto the dance floor.

His dance partner was a little girl of only six or seven years old, and Jack was jumping hand in hand, facing each other, her height was just up to Jack's waist, so her hands were raised high, and Jack had to be half-bent to balance with her.

This big and small, tall and short dance partner looks ridiculous, but not only the little girl dances seriously, but even Jack pulls the little girl to sway and spin as if he is taking it seriously.

The little girl's little grown-up energy and Jack's naughty spirit drew everyone to applaud the couple, and from time to time applauded their movements.

Leonardo's performance has always been done very well, after all, the role of Jack actually doesn't have much room to play, there is no depth to dig into, as long as he is handsome, with expectations and innocence for the future in his eyes.

After Cheng Xiaoyu shouted "CUT", the next scene started with Catherine, and after filming started again, three cameras were pointed at Catherine, and she played Ruth chatting with a man at the table, and no one noticed that she was a first-class guest, and no one realized that she was different from them.

Ruth gulped down her drink and talked to a bearded Spanish speaker across from her, but she couldn't make out what the man was saying, because the room was noisy, and the sound of drums, flutes, laughter, and dancing all came together in a hodgepodge.

There was nothing wrong with Catherine's performance in this segment.

Jack and the little girl danced happily, and seeing Jack's engaged and selfless expression, Ruth thought it was quite funny, and applauded to the beat.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man sitting only one step away from Ruth fell to the ground, I don't know if he drank too much wine or didn't sit still, the man fell very hard, and the wine was spilled on himself, which startled Ruth. She was about to get up to help the man, but she saw him get up again, and there was neither pain nor complaint on his face, but he took the glass of the other man and continued to drink.

Jack took the little girl around the crowd by the hand, but his eyes never took off Ruth. While the little girl was standing there panting from exhaustion, Jack let go of his hand and leaned over to her, "Shall I ask her to jump?"

After saying that, he pulled up Ruth, who was sitting, and Ruth was a little cold, but she was still pulled by Jack to dance him. The little girl's face was not very happy, and Jack immediately comforted, "She's not as good as yours, Koala." The little girl smiled.

"Come, follow me!" Jack said as he pulled Ruth to the center of the dance.

"No, Jack, wait, I won't jump!" Ruth felt a little nervous.

"It's okay, get closer...... ...... like this," Jack said, holding her waist and gliding lightly into the crowd.

"I don't know how to move. Ruth looked restrained at first and walked a little disorganized, and besides, she really hadn't danced this popular pas de deux.

"I won't either, dance to the beat of the music, don't think about anything else!" Leonardo's Jack looked affectionately at the heroine played by his cousin and encouraged her. Here Leonardo's old fritter in the love scene is very well performed, and the sincere admiration and the expectation of falling in love for the first time are very well handled.

In the next few minutes, the camera kept chasing this pair of young dance partners, one was a young man and the other was a beautiful girl, which not only added luster to the civilian dance hall, but also brought a youthful vitality.

No one stopped dancing, but they all watched their ups and downs, spinning freely, tambourine beating louder, bagpipes blowing louder, and Jack and Ruth's pas de deux bringing the third-class dance to a climax......

"Stop, Jack, stop!" Ruth cried out laughing as she jumped.

Compared with Leonardo's chic and free-spirited, Catherine's performance is a little restrained and unnatural, except for panic, there is no familiar warmth and cheerful catharsis in her expression, there is no such thing as happiness in her performance, and the joy of her face and body is floating on the surface.

Cheng Xiaoyu had no choice but to frown and shouted: "CUT!"

The originally noisy and joyful third-class cabin calmed down at once, more than 100 group performances were professional group performances invited at high prices, and many of them have starred in small supporting roles in some movies, in the pursuit of quality and details, Cheng Xiaoyu has no idea of saving money, everything is in accordance with the highest configuration.

Catherine Blanchett also knew that it was her own problem just now, and she gasped a little and said unwillingly: "Come again." ”

The other group performers and Leonardo saw that Cheng Xiaoyu had no expression on his face, so he could only prepare to come over again without saying a word, and the third-class cabin, which originally seemed to have a very happy atmosphere, seemed to be overshadowed.

And then over and over again "action!" and "cut!", and despite Catherine Blanchett's hard work, even jumping until her legs were weak and sweaty, she never got into the cheerful atmosphere, she was always isolated.

After "cut" again, she didn't look at Cheng Xiaoyu, the closed third-class cabin made her feel stuffy, so that her heat and anger began to ferment, but she still tried hard to suppress the irritability in her heart, and whispered: "Come ..... again"

This time Cheng Xiaoyu spoke up: "Let's take a rest first, let's continue to ..... later"

Catherine Blanchett, who was wearing a black lace and diamond dress, turned her head and looked at Cheng Xiaoyu with some annoyance and said, "I can still shoot! Why don't you continue?"

Cheng Xiaoyu looked at Catherine calmly and said, "Catherine, I think we have to talk." ”

"There's nothing to talk about, I'm a dishonest person like you. Catherine Blanchett turned her head and said with some disdain.

"Sister, I think ....."

Catherine Blanchett interrupted Leonardo's interjection and said viciously, "Shut up, this has nothing to do with you....."

Leonardo could only touch his nose and smile bitterly at Cheng Xiaoyu.

Cheng Xiaoyu walked out from behind the monitor, and pulled Catherine Blanchett directly towards the outside of the third-class cabin with an expressionless face.

The onlookers immediately got out of the way, and Catherine struggled to get rid of Cheng Xiaoyu's hand holding him, but couldn't.
