"What do you mean...... Let Mike die? Scarlett wondered, this is a plot in the movie, the main character Mike fast-forwards to the future in the remote control and dies in the arms of his loved ones, but the problem is that I am afraid that every actor has acted in his own death scene and has become numb to this kind of plot.

"No, I'm going to let him lose the most precious thing in his life before his eyes." Li Xiaole's eyes suddenly felt a little unbearable, and he raised his head and said slowly.

"It's so funny, I'm looking forward to how you can make a hanger an actor miserable at work?" Scarlett noticed Li Xiaole's strange reaction, and suddenly felt that he was more sentimental than she had imagined, and after taking a deep look at Li Xiaole, she turned around and walked out of the door.

With the start of filming of "Life Remote Control", the time has also come to February 5, 2006, all North American filmmakers know that this time is the off-season for the film industry, but even at this time, there are a total of 156 different movies from 13 countries in the United States are released in theaters, but now every quarter of the prime time festival of American dramas, the trend of "Prison Break" is sweeping the United States, and the cold winter in most states also prevents people from driving to the movie to watch the movie.

On the weekly box office list, except for "The Chronicles of Narnia", which has been entrenched in the box office list for more than two months, it is a strong film left over from the Christmas schedule, and they are all the top five in the box office list that have been excluded from the summer and Christmas files, "Strange Call", "Jedi Daddy", "Magic Nanny McPhee", "Brokeback Mountain" are not the killer features of major film companies, except for "Strange Call", which reached 41.3 million box office, none of the others exceeded the box office mark of 20 million US dollars.

The most concerned news in the North American film industry is all kinds of fun that mocks Tom Cruise, and at the same time, many fans have begun to pay attention to Tom Cruise's new film, Meryl Streep + Robert Redford + Tom Cruise's strong lineup makes people feel bright.

Many fans who like gossip are speculating whether Tom Cruise plans to use his new film "Lion into the Sheep's Mouth" after joining Sony in the summer file to compete with his old club Paramount "Mission Impossible 3"?

Tom Cruise's female agent, Wagner, also took the opportunity to make a big fuss in the media, arranging for Li Xiaole and Tom Cruise to be interviewed by ABC TV's "Hollywood Letter Man" program to promote the new film that United States is twice the film being filmed.

"May I ask Tom, what do you think of your new film 'The Lion in the Sheep's Mouth' and do you have great expectations for it? Do you prefer "The Lion's Mouth" or "Mission: Secret Sauce 3"? Oran Williams, a black female journalist, asked on a television screen.

"Yes, the film "The Lion in the Sheep's Mouth" may be my most Haode work in recent years, and I expect that the response to the release should not be too much lost to "Spy Disc 3", of course, I think you also know, after all, "Spy Disc 3" is a global movie, and "The Lion in the Sheep's Mouth" will be slightly weaker at the total box office, but I think "The Lion in the Sheep's Mouth" should be more popular among the audience of the elite crowd." Tom Cruise confidently replied:

"Of course, in the first half of the year, we have two films that will be released, as well as my friend Li Xiaole's "Life Remote Control", you may not know him, but he is the most haode director in China, and he is very young, and when this work is released, you should also buy tickets to see it." After speaking, Tom Cruise put his arms around Li Xiaole in order to let the camera focus on him.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I always thought that the most haode director in China was Ang Lee, may I ask Mr. Li Xiaole, are you his relative?" Orlan Williams joked and laughed, and only gave Li Xiaole a seemingly embarrassing shot, this is the attitude of the Hollywood media, they don't want to mention directors who are not well-known, if Li Xiaole can be involved in Ang Lee's scandal, it may still be a topic.

This made Li Xiaole, who appeared on the American TV media for the first time, feel very unhappy, and couldn't help scolding his mother, damn, Lao Tzu has also appeared on the cover of the Asian version of "Time", and these American media are too arrogant......

But after thinking about it, Li Yuchun seemed to have been on the cover of Time magazine a few months ago, known as "the most popular singer among the young generation of China", and then when she came to the United States to perform, the American media regarded her with the mentality of watching jokes, and in the eyes of the American media, he Li Xiaole is also the second Li Yuchun......

When the TV station aired this episode of "Hollywood Letterman", all the viewers heard the core sentence that Tom Cruise wanted to express throughout the interview: "I expect that Luen Mei will turn around and become a well-functioning company within a year after I take over." ”

Turning a profit in a year? He said that he had high expectations for Luen Mei's performance? What is the definition of very high? Is it going to get $200 million at the box office?

Although the entertainment media haven't had time to comment yet, the discussion of the news is already underway on the Internet, with a die-hard Tom Cruise fan "Tiny Transistor" commenting:

"To be honest, the future of Luen Mei is worrying, Tom Cruise has launched his work in such a short period of time after leaving Paramount, it is obvious that he has not gone through much preparation, although the film industry is now dominated by stars, but the dull subject matter and the rush of the movie story, I am worried about the reaction of the movie after its release."

This comment is already polite, and many neutral fan comments are even directly sarcastic: "He actually compared a World War II theme with Paramount's "Mission: 3"...... Maybe he's been brainwashed by Scientology, so he wants to make some movies that conform to Scientology's teachings? I think this guy is going to destroy himself sooner or later!? ”

In the Hollywood film industry, Tom Cruise's declaration to revitalize the United States has become a fixed joke after dinner.

In Paramount's production office, everyone gathered around the coffee machine to talk about this topic: "Tom Cruise actually said that he wanted to revitalize the company that had been buried in the ground for more than 20 years, I think he wanted to bury himself alive in the tombstone of Lianmei." ”

"It's not, just with the degree of this idiot's current decline in popularity, his actor's value has fallen a lot, and it is estimated that he won't be able to make any good movies if he is not in Lianmei, I'm afraid that he and Katie's wedding money will be accompanied by haha."

In Paramount's CEO's office, Brad Gray was being questioned by shareholders who threw the Los Angeles Times excerpt of Tom Cruise's report on his desk and asked:

"Gray, now do you have anything to say about forcing Tom Cruise away? He's starting to make a new move with Sony's support, shouldn't you reflect on the way you treated him in the first place? If he succeeds at Sony, then we'll never get back the dominance of the Mission: Secret Mission."

"yes, Sony's attitude is still unclear, should we take down those media reports about Cruise?" The bald director on the left, who wore glasses, was also a little worried.

The dispute between Paramount and Tom Cruise is, to put it bluntly, a struggle over the distribution of interests in the "Mission" series, Paramount owns the copyright of this series, and Tom Cruise owns the production rights, and only if both parties agree to start filming this series of movies.

Paramount originally wanted to completely suppress Tom Cruise, and then spend a few years to force Tom Cruise to take back the production rights of the "Mission" series from him. You must know that Paramount can guarantee profits without filming "Spy Mission", and Tom Cruise must rely on "Spy 4" to ensure his status after his popularity is declining rapidly.

But now the situation seems to have changed, if Tom Cruise comes back to life at Sony, then "Spy Mission", a classic spy war series like the 007 series, may never return to Paramount's hands.

"Don't worry, guys." Brad Gray looked at the shareholders calmly and drank his coffee leisurely:

"What you're worried about isn't going to happen, and I wasn't wrong in my decision, Tom Cruise will never succeed as long as Cork is in control of MGM in the back...... United America is just his grave, and one day, he will know that the "Mission" series is the only movie he can turn over, and there will be times when he licks his face and begs us. ”

"Are you so sure?" The bald man asked, confused.

Brad Gray took out a document from the drawer and threw it on the table and said with a smile: "You can take a look, these are the documents that Leigh Canon faxed me, which contains the outline of the script of "The Lion in the Sheep's Mouth", as well as the time of their release, Tom Cruise is just a smokescreen in the media, he is ready to catch up with the time difference a week before the release of "Spy Disc 3", and use the publicity of "Spy Disc 3" to use the first week box office to recover the cost." ”

"I see...... after circulating those documents, several shareholders took a look at each other and smiled, it seems that Tom Cruise is simply in the midst of internal and external troubles, and he knows his release arrangements, as long as "Spy Disc 3" is also released on the same day as "The Lion in the Sheep's Mouth" a week in advance, then he will definitely be finished, think about it, fans will go into the cinema and see these two movies also starring Tom Cruise, will they choose a dull World War II story, or a hot and exciting spy movie?

While all walks of life were waiting to see the jokes of Luen Mei, they seemed to invariably ignore that another film of Luen Mei Company was also in full swing of filming, and the crew of "Life Remote Control" was in a happy atmosphere, and the filming progress was smoother than expected, and two-thirds of the plot progress of the film had been completed in three weeks.

For such a popular comedy movie, whether it is Matthew or Li Xiaole himself, they are all familiar with it, and it is effortless to shoot, and most of the humor of comedy comes from the setting of scripts and lines, which is much less difficult to shoot than other types of films.

The only thing that worries Sony is that the budget for the film is starting to show signs of overspending......
