Chapter 149: North America Boils
New York is boiling.
Los Angeles is boiling.
All of North America is boiling.
"Brave Death Island" was an unexpected success, and even Wei Ting, who was far away in China, did not expect that people would love this film so much.
Compared with most of the people who usually watch movies, this time, many middle-aged and elderly people and even disabled soldiers also ran to the cinema, because they knew that a gimmick of this movie was actually caused by veterans and disabled soldiers.
Even for the Chinese in the United States, but they form a small society, the film also attracted their attention, the screenwriter is a young Chinese girl, which is enough to attract them, Hollywood accommodates all rivers, but not every drop of water can make waves.
A week later, the box office of "Brave Death Island" was close to 200 million, and when Wei Ting received the news, she was actually working with Jiang Beihe on the TVIZATION of "Four-wheel Drive Brothers".
Of course, "Blue Cat" is not finished yet, but Wei Ting's work has been completed. Although it was sold to CCTV at a loss, the overseas sales situation is very good, especially some time ago, through Jenny's actions, the blue cat will land on the BBC and the American Broadcasting Corporation next year, and Wei Ting has planned to import the blue cat's peripheral products into the European and American markets.
With the more and more abundant reserves of technology and talents, Wei Ting is ready to start the animation plan of "Four-wheel Drive Brothers", and now he is also extremely rich in terms of funds, in addition to "Blue Cat" selling well, "Bosom Friend", "Truant Dragon" and "Tricky Expert" have brought good income. Xu Laowei is preparing the first part of the Wong Fei Hung series "Wong Fei Hung: Top Gun", and the cooperation with Xiang is also underway, and the next movie is being made, but the cost of Hong Kong films has never been large, so there is no need for a large investment.
In Jiang Beihe's view, there is no problem with the animation of "Four-wheel Drive Brothers", but it is very difficult to make materials like Wei Ting's request, which is indeed a challenge for the studio's creative staff. However, Wei Ting also has a way. That is the use of computers and professional design software.
This professional design software has taken her a lot of effort, and she has also built a library of material materials...... At this time, the hard disk is not easy to use, in order to facilitate access, Wei Ting designed the hard disk enclosure. It can be directly connected to the main engine box for use, and after the design was completed, it immediately applied for a patent and authorized Rongda Radio Factory to use it.
So, Wei Ting has been very busy lately. In addition to studying every day, it is to let Zero intercept special effects materials from cartoons, and at the same time sort out the shooting script of "4WD Brothers".
The time, money and energy required to shoot such an animation will exceed that of "Blue Cat", and Wei Ting is also trying to reduce the burden on other creative staff in the studio.
However, after knowing that "Brave Death Island" was released, Wei Ting's idea of investing in the film became even stronger, and the current foundation of the studio is still thin, and because the current equity distribution is still relatively reasonable. Wei Ting does not plan to make additional investments. If the studio's funds are really upside down, she can invest privately or by her mother's factory, which is also a way. And "The Great Satan" will be released in the New Year, if it can be a hit, it will not be a problem to attract social investment in the future.
The response to "Brave Death Island" was far better than Wei Ting's expectations, and this film occupied the box office champion throughout the Christmas schedule. In fact, she didn't make much money on these movies, but after her fame started. When Jenny talked to others about movie scripts, it was no longer tens of thousands of dollars for a script, but directly proposed to participate in the box office sharing.
Now, except that Cameron already loves "Titanic". There are also many companies that have frequent contact with Jenny, and they are very interested in Wei Ting's published films, and Wei Ting's name has become more resounding, although she rarely makes official appearances, but when others talk about those movies, they inevitably mention her name. And Jenny was also very distressed by the reporters, because they asked her to 'hand over' Wei Ting every time.
For Jenny's distress, all Wei Ting can do is to give spiritual encouragement, and in addition to the work at hand, she is now engaged in continuing to create a small ambiguity with Yue Chenguang that belongs to the two of them.
……
Although Huizhou is not as good as Guangzhou and Dongguan, but it is also at the forefront of reform, when the mainland is still holding a cassette recorder and singing with accompaniment, Huizhou has already appeared such a consumption place as KTV, and it has gradually become a form of entertainment accepted by the general public.
For most boys, the game room is their favorite, the Internet café has not yet appeared, it is a new thing, many people have not even heard of the name, and the boys often talk about those cassette games.
Students are the most receptive to time, and they are the ones who are truly at the forefront of fashion. As early as Christmas, Wei Ting heard that some classes were organizing singing in the song city, but she didn't care about it, until Yue Chenguang called, she remembered that this kind of entertainment has become quite popular in the southern coastal areas.
Golden Crab Song City is located in a bustling commercial street in Huizhou City, there are many open-air barbecues and bars with signboards on this street, and there are also some stalls selling all kinds of snacks, call two boiled peanuts, a plate of edamame, and two or three friends get together to drink a little wine, the nightlife is very delicious, but this street is not as prosperous as in later generations, but faintly appearing in the embryonic form.
Wei Ting came in the car of her mother's factory, and she was holding a new Motorola flip phone, the car she was riding in was a Volga, and her aunt's business was getting smoother and smoother, and before Christmas, she actually got more than a dozen Soviet-made Volga cars, and her mother Luo Yuting bought a substitute car at the instigation of Wei Ting, and Wei Ting was also very polite, often asked the driver to drive the car over when she was doing errands, if it wasn't for her too young and couldn't get a driver's license, she would have driven herself...... This is to say, at this time, the car delivery is already very eye-catching, even college students do not drive private cars in and out of the campus, she is a little high school student, how dare to go against this day?
Stepping out of the car, Wei Ting was wearing a small apricot yellow coat, thin jeans and a pair of shoes that exposed the instep of the blue veins.
The breeze blows, her ponytail sways gently, and the fallen leaves under her feet gently whirl in the wind. She picked up her mobile phone and typed a number, and after connecting it, she said, "Please call 185003, I'm here, at the main entrance of New World Mall." (To be continued.) )
