Wang Zijun didn't play finance in his previous life, and he didn't have specific information about the second oil crisis in his head, he only knew that oil prices would rise, but he couldn't remember how high. Qi no pop-up window

If he knows the price of oil in the next six months, then his $100 million will turn into at least $3 billion. It's a pity that Wang Zijun is not too sure, and his prediction of the rise in oil prices is conservative, and after the contract in his hand is settled, there will be a maximum of 2 billion US dollars.

On December 30, 197, Wang Zijun's new film "Two Heroes" premiered in more than 50 theaters in North America.

This Christmas for the United States, there are many good movies to choose from. If you have children at home, "The Wizard of Oz" is a movie that can make the whole family laugh together while sitting in the cinema.

However, the one who pays more attention to it is Christopher. Rief and Malone. "Transcendence" starring Brando. The investment in this film is 55 million US dollars, which is more than double the investment of Wang Zijun's "Face Snatcher". If it is said that "The Face of the Heroes" blockbuster, then "Super Entry" is a well-deserved blockbuster today.

In the two weeks since its release, the box office of "Super Entry" has been hot, especially around Christmas, and it is even full. From the well-known comics to the screen story, plus the huge investment of the exciting picture, and Marlon. The joining of stars such as Brando has attracted the audience to the theater.

When the premiere date of "The Face Snatcher" was announced, some film critics began to ridicule Wang Zijun for being afraid that he would suffer a loss this time. Wang Zijun's previous promotional selling points are nothing more than big productions, futuristic sci-fi action and Al. Pacino, Jack. Nicholson, Ann Margaret and other stars.

But these selling points don't seem to be cheap compared to "Super Entry".

First of all, let's talk about big productions, the investment of "Killing the Face" is only half of "Super In"; As for future sci-fi action dramas, "Super Entry" is definitely more sci-fi and action-packing; And the stars, Christopher and Malone. Brando's appeal at this time is definitely better than that of Al. Pacino and they are several larger.

After analysis, the prospects of "The Face Snatcher" are very bad, at least many of them are waiting to see the jokes.

The well-known film critic Karl and his friend Steve made an appointment to watch the premiere of "The Faces of the Two", and they were so busy that a new film was released almost every few days, and they were both painful and happy as a film critic.

Bypassing reporters and fans, the two entered directly into the screening room.

After Karl sat down, he said, "Hopefully Zachary. Don't let me down, yesterday's "Happiness in Iruma" is really bad, with a bad plot, a bad soundtrack, and that bad acting, I don't want to watch the movie again for a whole week after watching it. ”

"I'm looking forward to it." Steve laughed, "This is Zachary. Wang has invested in one of the biggest films, and I don't know what he will be like. ”

"We'll see." Carl knew that Steve was a big fan of Wang Zijun.

Steve turned around and exclaimed, "Oh, George. Lucas actually came, I heard that he was preparing to shoot the second part of "Star Wars", and he was usually so busy that he didn't even go home. ”

Carr said: "Lucas and the king of China are good friends, it seems that when Lucas was filming "Star Wars", he had the technology to invest in Zachary. Wang's Industrial Light & Magic. ”

"Who did you listen to?" Steve asked.

Karl shrugged, "That's what everybody says. ”

Steve suddenly pointed to the entrance and said with a smile: "Spielberg is here too, oh, and bodybuilder Schwarzenegger and his coach Joe. Wade. This Chinese gentleman's affinity seems to be good. ”

The two film critics chatted in it, but Miss Zhou Jiyun, a reporter from the American "World Journal", was squatting outside the theater, and since last year's interview with Wang Zijun, who opened up the situation in the United States, Zhou Jiyun has become the ace reporter of the American "World Journal". …,

There are also some American counterparts around, and compared with Zhou Jiyun's focus, those are more casual. It's just the premiere of a movie, and when you go back, you just add a line of small print to the entertainment version, and you can get it in minutes.

A man in his thirties who entered the white cheeks did not even go to interview the Czech Republic that had just passed. Nicholson, instead next to Zhou Jiyun's side, said with a hippie smile: "Hi, Miss, I'm Louis from the Los Angeles Post." ”

Faced with this man who obviously came to talk to him, Zhou Jiyun was not a little impatient, but smiled at him: "Hello, Louis." ”

When Louis saw the play, he said, "Do you have time in a while, let's go have coffee." ”

"No, sir, I still have an interview assignment." Zhou Jiyun said.

"Oh, which newspaper are you from? Your boss is really not close to love, and he actually let such a beautiful young lady come out late for an interview. Los Angeles is very chaotic, and if there is a problem with the party, why don't I send you back. Luis said as he pulled back his sleeves and raised his fist to show off his biceps, "I've done boxing before, and none of the three are my opponents." ”

"Luis, I think my job is coming!" Zhou Jiyun smiled at Louis, and suddenly walked towards the street with the photojournalist behind him.

Wang Zijun and Judy. Foster's family came, and they wanted to bring Lin Qingxia and Lin Fengjiao out, but it was too easy to be exposed here.

"Zachary, will you have confidence in your new film?" A reporter rushed to Wang Zijun and asked.

Wang Zijun said: "Of course, I have confidence in myself, and I also have confidence in the cast and crew members.

"Then do you think your new film will surpass "Super In" at the box office?" Another Hollywood Reporter reporter asked.

Wang Zijun said: "I admit that "Super is a great film, but it is not unsurpassable. At least judging from the current box office situation, "Super Entry" is far better than Bu Xia Yao's "Hot Waves", which is also translated as "Grease". ”

Of course, "Hot Prodigal" can still rank in the top dozens of Hollywood box office decades later.

The reporter of "Variety" immediately grabbed the conversation and asked: "Do you mean that "The Face of the Heroes" is aimed at the box office of "Hot Prodigal Son", and "Super Entry" is not in your eyes? ”

"That's what you said, so many reporters testify, I've never said anything like that." Wang Zijun said with a smile.

In addition to Wang Zijun, Judy. Foster, a talented girl in Hollywood, was also surrounded by reporters, and Wang Zijun walked inside while answering reporters' questions.

Suddenly, a reporter asked: "Zachary, about the United States and Taiwan. What do you think about the severance of diplomatic relations? ”

Wang Zijun stopped suddenly, and the other reporters also quieted down, waiting for Wang Zijun's answer. In fact, there are so many journalists here today, which is also a major reason.

"You are?" Wang Zijun asked.

The reporter said, "I'm Nickerson, a reporter for the Washington Post. According to Taiwan. The news came back that the delegation led by our Deputy Secretary of State, Mr. Christopher, is in Taiwan. Not only was the convoy unpopular, but the convoy was also egg-washed and beaten, and he was also frightened. The window of His Excellency Christopher's car was smashed by a stone thrown by a citizen of Taipei, and his forehead was injured. As a station. Wanjin, what do you think of the actions of Taipei citizens, and if Taiwan and the United States break off diplomatic relations, will you continue to stay in Hollywood to make movies? ”

"Mr. Reporter," Wang Zijun glared at him, "First of all, I am a Chinese member, and my birthplace is in Taiwan. b, but my hometown is Hebei, China. Also, this is the severance of diplomatic relations between the Republic of China and the United States, not Taiwan. b. Severing diplomatic relations with the United States. As a province, the bay does not have independent diplomatic rights. Although the excesses of the Taipei compatriots were inappropriate, I fully understand their feelings of white spoons, and if I had been there at the time, maybe I would have been one of them. As for whether to stay in the United States to make movies, it depends on whether American fans are tired of my work. ”…,

The reporter, named Nickerson, seemed not very satisfied with Wang Zijun's answer, and continued to ask: "Chinese mainland has formally established diplomatic relations with the United States, so that the Republic of China in your mouth will be isolated as a region, and development will be difficult. You've had such great success in the U.S. again, have you ever thought about immigrating to the U.S. ”

Wang Zijun said with a smile: "Although the United States is good, I haven't considered joining the United States yet." As for the future development of the Republic of China, I believe that under the leadership of President Chiang Ching-kuo, even greater achievements will be made in the future. ”

"Then what do you think of the Republic of China on the mainland? Are you a pro-communist or a pro-communist element? Nickerson asked.

Wang Zijun's face was ugly, how could he say this kind of words, he only lost one sentence at the moment: "I'm sorry, the theme of this day is the premiere of my new film, and I refuse to answer this question." ”

"Why? Do you think this question is difficult to answer? "Nickerson was persistent.

"Mr. Reporter, whether it is the Republic of China or the Republic of China, they are both China, but the ideology is different. I am not pro-communist, nor will I be, and I hope that the two sides of the strait can get rid of their prejudices and achieve peaceful reunification. Are you satisfied with this answer? After Wang Zijun finished speaking, he stopped dumping him and went directly into the theater gate.

Wang Zijun walked a little hurriedly, and the back that disappeared in a hurry was recorded by more than a dozen cameras.

Zhou Jiyun stuck out her tongue when she saw Wang Zijun's unhappy appearance, she originally wanted to ask Wang Zijun to do an exclusive interview on the severance of diplomatic relations between Taiwan and the United States.

"Wang, your face is a little ugly." Arnold. Schwarzenegger said to Wang Zijun, who had just sat down.

"Nothing." Wang Zijun said with a smile.

Judy. The Foster family also came in soon after, and Judy. "Those journalists are really annoying," Foster said. ”

"Yes." Wang Zijun deeply agreed.

Before the premiere began, Wang Zijun chatted with Frank, who had just come in, but what he was thinking about was Taiwan. The situation over there.

Suddenly severing diplomatic relations with the United States, Taiwan. The intellectuals of the bay felt as if they had collapsed. They spontaneously walked the streets, singing patriotic songs and shouting slogans, and the scene infected many ordinary citizens and joined in one after another.

U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher's car was smashed by angry demonstrators in the evening, and Christopher was scared to pee his pants. The place where his car passed, there were demonstrators everywhere, black and pressed, all kinds of tomatoes, stones, rotten eggs smashed into the window panes, and Christopher's eyebrows were accidentally injured and bleeding.

The front of the car was blocked, and the driver honked his horn while driving, but the speed was as slow as a snail, and he finally got rid of the angry crowd, and Christopher did not dare to go back to the US Embassy, but hid in the Yuanshan Hotel in Taipei and did not dare to come out.

Christopher's decision proved to be so wise that a few years later, the façade and glass of the U.S. embassy were smashed into a sieve, and the police officers who came to maintain order turned a blind eye, occasionally admitting to throwing two more stones if they weren't paying attention.

There was a tragic atmosphere among the people, and Chiang Ching-kuo was also extremely aggrieved, because Christopher was a friend he had known for many years. However, Na Yao's attitude was very bad, and as soon as he came to announce the order, he said that the United States had decided to sever diplomatic relations with the Republic of China and then establish diplomatic relations with the Republic of China on the mainland.

Not only that, Christopher also said that in order to avoid this incident from being spread in advance. The people of Bay Province were dissatisfied and demanded that the Nationalist Government not disclose the matter for a short period of time.

Chiang Ching-kuo is usually a very kind person and basically doesn't talk seriously, but at that time, he was so angry by Christopher's attitude that he slapped the table. Subsequently, Chiang Ching-kuo sent a message to the whole of Taiwan. The people of Bay Province made a tragic speech, which roughly meant that the hateful Yankees were treacherous, but at such a difficult moment, we must not be discouraged, and we must bear in mind the instructions of the previous president, actively make preparations, and wait for the first time to counterattack the mainland and rescue the compatriots on the mainland from the dire misery. …,

The next time, the stage. The public opinion machine in the bay was running rapidly, scolding the United States while shouting loud slogans about the counteroffensive. However, those who have a little sense know that scolding the United States is a waste of saliva, and the slogan of the counteroffensive is nothing more than a self-soothing medicine.

This situation in Taiwan. There are few people who care about what movies Wang Zijun has made in the United States, and the image of the United States in Taiwan. b. Descended to the lowest point.

Wang Zijun did not dare to return to Taiwan at such a time. b, I know what troubles will happen.

The mainland has already carried out reform and opening up, and in mid-197 it also opened up the entry of audio-visual products, allowing them to return with tape recorders and song tapes bought from Hong Kong and the United States.

Teresa Teng's songs have quietly spread among the mainland folk, and Wang Zijun has quietly gained many fans.

Of course, on the bright side, these songs are still the products of the bourgeoisie, and Teresa Teng's songs are also the glamorous sounds that corrode the will, but some of Wang Zijun's inspirational songs are more acceptable to the old intellectuals in the mainland.

Wang Zijun was thinking about when he would be able to go to the mainland to have a look. I don't feel that I have been staying in the mainland all my life, and I even think that it is better to immigrate than to hide all kinds of dirt and dirt in the dynasty, so as not to be idle.

But now I really can't go back, but I miss it more and more, this kind of mind is like old wine, time can't forget it, but brewing and fermenting, more and more intense.

The sound in the screening hall interrupted Wang Zijun's thoughts, and the projection lights led the dragon and tiger roaring on the screen. By the time DT Films' opening credits passed, the light dimmed and the picture became a little blurry.

On the screen, it's Jack. Nicholson plays a father who rides a merry-go-round with his young son in an amusement park. In addition to the warm soundtrack, the laughter of the picture is carried out silently.

The Trojan horse is spinning, and subtitles such as starring, cinematography, and action direction begin to appear at the bottom of the screen.

In the shadows, a gun barrel suddenly emerges, and the viewer can only see the gun and the part holding the gun, but apparently, the gun is pointed at the carousel's father having fun with his son.

The scene shifts to the aiming mode of a sniper rifle, the Doji moves with the Trojan's father and son, and the music of the film becomes tense.

Who was the father and son, why did Youjin kill the father, and who was the one with the gun?

With doubts in their hearts, the picture switches back and forth between the finger holding the trigger and the laughing father and son, and the audience can't help but get nervous.

Finally, with the snap of the fingers, the father and son were suddenly shot and fell to the ground, and the murderer fled the scene quickly.

Only a few seconds later, the father who had been shot suddenly fell to his knees and held his son and roared silently.

The father who was the target did not die, and the son became an innocent victim.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the blurred picture just now suddenly became clear. Pacino and Jack. As soon as Nicholson entered the squad leader, his face was strangely connected, and below his face was the title of "The Face-Winning Heroes".

After the title, several big Chinese characters of "Produced by Wang Zijun" appeared on the screen, and below the Chinese characters was its English translation.

Next is the FBI's Los Angeles headquarters, with its crisp office partitions and interior decoration, which dazzled the audience. The camera swept over the agents who were working, and these fingers tapped on the keyboard, and various data and images quickly appeared.

At this time, the market has only appeared for a few years, and it is basically used for the work of companies and institutions, and only a few computer enthusiasts will have their own.

Seeing almost a computer office, the audience remembered that the time when this film took place was really 2000 years in the future.

Then, after giving the audience a general understanding of the plot, the male protagonist Sean. Archer retrieved the information of the terrorists very quickly through the computer.

"Wow, that's cool, is this a computer? Looking at the way they operate, it seems to be very powerful. ”…,

The audience whispered that the computers were nothing more than televisions in the shape of computers, and that the beautiful and smooth images inside were also playing video tapes.

Then, Al. Pacino's role as the terrorist Custer. Troy came out in shock. The door opened, and Al, dressed in a trench coat and wearing a gentleman's top hat, opened the door. Panosi gets out of the car in slow motion, his trench coat flying in the wind, full of aura.

One word: cool enough, handsome enough, and stylish enough!

Just when many female fans secretly fell in love, the personable and full of aura just now. Pacino, suddenly, danced nervously to the chant, and then slapped the woman into the valley. The exaggerated performance and the obscene singing of the hymn into the woman's hips, combined with the nervous expression, made some of the audience almost faint on the spot.

The huge contrast before and after seriously tests the audience's psychological endurance.

"Hell! This is Al. Pacino? Oh, the image in my heart is ruined. ”

This is Al. Pacino's voice from a movie fan.

The two critics of Carl and Steve stared at the screen intently. The king is fantastic, Al. Pacino was actually trained like this by him.

The various future products that appeared next grabbed the audience's attention.

"Is that a cordless phone? It's beautiful. This is the communication of the future. ”

"Is that too? You can actually carry it with you and use it when you open it. ”

"Is technology so advanced more than a decade later? Terrorists can detonate a bomb that can blow up several square kilometers through that little thing! ”

However, this shock is nothing, and the following chase scenes between cars and planes, helicopters and private airliners, the shocking and exciting scenes make the audience jaw-dropping.

"Boom!" The helicopter fell to the ground and exploded in the eyes of the spectators, quickly becoming a large fireball.

Dea! There is no cut in the middle, and the audience's eyes can prove that it was the helicopter that exploded.

"Boom!" The smuggled aircraft was transferred directly into the building.

The chase turned into a shootout, a shootout never seen before in the American audience.

Steve stared at the screen and exclaimed, "Emperor, this is not a shootout, this is the art of violence." Every dodge, shot, airshot, and even reloading is perfect. Oh, what's going on with this slow-motion bullet? ”

Karl staggered: "Zachary turned violence into a kind of beauty, not only in gunfights, but also in martial arts. No blues. The kind of pyrotechnics in Lee's kung fu films, every movement of the two protagonists is like a beautiful dance. Both real and unreal, it's rare that Zachary actually combines these two styles perfectly. ”

is just the opening one, and the audience, including reporters and film critics, was captured by this movie.

But that's just the beginning!

Until the moment when the two protagonists of the positive and negative characters changed faces, some female viewers at the scene even screamed, which was the kind of scream when watching horror movies.

Then, there is the identity transformation of the two protagonists.

Judy. Foster looked at Al. Pacino and Jack. Nicholson's flawless performance couldn't help but exclaim: "This is the real performing arts!" ”

The continuous high-tech, explosive gunfights and fights, as well as the occasional explosion, the dramatic contradiction of the role reversal, and the resulting discussion of ethics and intentness, make the audience fascinated.

Especially in the final battle of the church, the flying white doves and flying bullets, in the sacred religious music, splashed with blood, the picture is so beautiful and cruel that the audience even forgets their own breathing and heartbeat.

"Classic! Without a doubt, this is definitely a classic battle in all Hollywood movies! Karl muttered to himself.

It's worth it, the tickets to the movie are worth the absolute price.

In the premiere hall of 50 "Two Heroes" in the United States, there was roaring applause at the same time.

The tide of watching the movie went out of the theater, and there was still excitedly discussing the plot just now.

"It's really amazing, it's the best than "Super Good, Wang's movie!"

"What? What do I like most about this movie, you ask? Of course, it is Al's performance, which is simply a god of acting, calm, neurotic, lonely, wise, with all kinds of expressions, there is nothing that his face can't do. I would say that he was definitely taken by Zachary. The king has changed his face! ”

"Of course it's good, I think I'll take my friends to watch it once, it's a movie you can't miss."

This is the audience's answer to "The Face of the Two".

To be continued
