The celebration was held at Hilton. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiang Wen directly chartered a large banquet hall and invited many famous figures in the film industry -- people from other major Hollywood film companies, some people from movie theater chains, and many big stars.
Naturally, there will be no shortage of media.
And Zhou Yu is the most dazzling among these people.
He is not a big star, but his status is extraordinary.
He sat there, and all the people who were watching the flowers came to greet him very humbly. And Qu Jing, Fang Tingting, and Christine, who came from behind, sat beside him. At the same table, there is also Zhao Ying.
Ever since Paramount met Zhou Yu, Zhao Ying knew that she had to seize the opportunity. Along the way, she was conscious, followed Zhou Yu, and didn't care about the opinions of the people around her.
And Zhou Yu didn't say anything.
Therefore, she sat at a table with Zhou Yu.
And this table, there are only six people. Zhou Yu, Qu Jing, Fang Tingting, Christine, Jiang Wen, and her.
She didn't say anything, she just looked at Zhou Yu with her eyes, watching his every move, and thus showing her attitude.
Jiang Wen turned a blind eye.
How Zhao Ying joined the crew, he knows best. As a mainland director, he still remembers very well what Zhao Yu said when he brought Zhao Ying to him.
This woman has a one-night relationship with Zhou Yu.
Although Zhao Ying was in the mainland, she was once very hot, and she also played a lot of TV series, but that's all. For Jiang Wen, it doesn't matter. Such a person is a big deal in the entertainment industry.
But there are very few people who can have such a relationship with Zhou Yu.
No matter what Zhou Yu thought, he would not show any bad attitude towards Zhao Ying.
And Qu Jing, Fang Tingting and Christine were getting together to whisper, completely ignoring Zhao Ying's existence. For them, Zhou Yu is the sky. If Zhou Yu wants to accept Zhao Ying, they will accept it, and if they don't accept it, they will treat it as nothing.
Zhou Yu chatted with a global manager for a few words, and then saw a familiar face walking over. Bright red heels, slender white legs, denim shorts, and a short-sleeved T-shirt that showed off his navel, his sexy body was exposed, and his blond hair - that was Taylor.
"Zhou, I'm sad, you know?"
Taylor leaned over, put on a veneer with Zhou Yu, and whispered in his ear with hot air: "I often think back to that day, and I often look forward to your call, but... Bastard, don't you miss me at all? ”
This is a typical open-minded American girl.
Zhou Yu smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "I'm glad that there is a beautiful lady who thinks about me all the time... Well, dear Taylor, if there is time tonight..."
"Uh-huh!" Taylor straightened up, gave a seductive look, and walked away again.
Subsequently, the celebration banquet officially began.
As a director, Jiang Wen took the lead in going up and giving a speech, which was not long, but just said his feelings and expressed his prospect of whether the film could win awards at various film festivals, and then gave the stage to the host.
Two hosts, one is an actor in the crew, who used to be a host. One is a star on the Hollywood side. The two gag, but they are very good at mobilizing the atmosphere.
After Jiang Wen came down, he chatted with Zhou Yu.
"For me, this should be my second film in Hollywood." He sighed: "It's a lot of experience. Compared with the domestic market, this side is indeed very different. It's no wonder that Hollywood movies have swept the world. We still have a lot to be desired..."
Zhou Yu sighed when he heard him, and couldn't help laughing: "It's not a lack of ability, it's the influence of the general environment." Like this time, didn't you do a good job too? ”
After a pause, he smiled and said, "Keep up the good work... I've watched this movie carefully, and it's very good. Especially in terms of fighting, the cruelty of real knives and guns on the battlefield is fully revealed. I decided to make another film. ”
He stared at Jiang Wen with his eyes.
Jiang Wen's face showed a touch of joy.
Making a movie invested by Zhou Yu, to be honest, is a treat for any director!
Listening to Zhou Yu's words, it is clear that he wants to be the director again, which is unbelievable!
Zhao Ying on the side, and even Qu Jing and Christine, were all attracted at once.
Even the protagonists of this movie at the other table next to them heard it, and couldn't help but prick up their ears and listen quietly.
"Director Xu is filming the movie Director Jiang, you know, taken from the content of an online novel. What I'm going to shoot this time is also a novel by that author. It's called "Dragon Snake". The main thing to talk about is the national art. I don't know if Director Jiang knows the national arts? ”
Of course, Jiang Wen knew that Xu Ke was filming "Three Clans for Hegemony", and he was slightly stunned when he heard this, and secretly said that the author really made Zhou Yu value it, as for the national art... He muttered, "Know a little bit." It seems to be a concept proposed by folk martial artists during the Republic of China. Strengthen the country and strengthen the species. Just like Huo Yuanjia? ”
Zhou Yu nodded: "Yes, a strong country is strong." But has Director Jiang ever seen a real martial artist? ”
"A true national martial artist?" Jiang Wen was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "Some dragon and tiger martial artists in the crew have some kung fu..."
Zhou Yu couldn't help laughing: "What is that?" The real national martial artists are not those dragon and tiger martial artists who can only play routines. That's a guy who kills people at every turn! ”
Without waiting for Jiang Wen to react: "Maybe Cheng Long and Zheng Zhidan should have some understanding." ”
"Oh, in that case, I'll talk to them when I go down." Jiang Wendao. But in my heart, I thought about the phrase 'kill people at every turn'.
And at this moment, the two hosts on the stage, somehow, led the topic to Zhou Yu.
"Everyone knows that our film was shot by Mr. Zhou. I think, there should be no one here who doesn't know Mr. Zhou, right? The richest man in the world! ”
"I'm sure many people will be curious, so, let's ask Mr. Zhou to come up to the stage and say a few words, okay?"
So there was a heckling.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile, and Qu Jing on the side pushed him: "Go up and say a few words..."
Zhou Yu touched his nose, had to stand up, and walked onto the stage.
"Well, I know I'm famous."
Everyone laughed.
Then he took the microphone and said, "I am a farmer, but the farmer also has hobbies. I love movies. ”
Of course, this is a superficial statement. Making movies is just a way to spread culture, which is Zhou Yu's real purpose. But he certainly won't say it directly.
"I've heard a lot of people criticize me for breaking the rules. Yes, I invest in films, regardless of the funding ceiling, maybe it is indeed a shock to the film industry. But we all know that in order to make a good movie, there must be no shortage of funds. What's the point of that kind of shoddy movie? ”
"Some people also say that my movies are all garbage piled up with special effects. But I've seen it, it's not. There are special effects, as well as the core main line and plot. You can see the scene, and you can also appreciate the truth. I think that was a success. Isn't the box office proof of that? ”
"Of course, I don't force others to do the same as me, regardless of the upper limit. Because they need to make money. I understand that. But I still think that to make money, you have to have good movies, don't you..."
After talking nonsense, Zhou Yu finally smiled: "The crew and actors of the movie are all very good. And director Jiang Wen has made great contributions. Therefore, I decided to make another movie and continue to ask Director Jiang to be the director, are you looking forward to it? ”
Speaking out here can also be regarded as a warm-up.
The actor and host of the crew on the side hurriedly pinched the topic and said, "Mr. Zhou, can you tell us all what kind of movie this movie is?" ”
He looked expectant.
To be honest, if he can have the opportunity to continue to play the movie made by Zhou Yu, this is also a huge temptation for him. That's why I picked up the conversation and asked.
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "Of course you can." Do you know about Guoshu? The national art of Great Xia. The next movie, the core of the theme, is the national art. In other words, it is a typical action movie. ”
Hearing this, another Hollywood star host said: "Is it kung fu?" That kind of kung fu from Bruce Lee? ”
Zhou Yu nodded: "So to speak." ”
Bruce Lee's name, he still recognizes.
Not to mention how powerful Bruce Lee is, just what he does is worthy of admiration.
"It turned out to be Great Xia Kung Fu." The Hollywood star host said, shaking his head: "But I don't think there's anything good to shoot in kung fu." It's like Jack Cheng's movie, it's a kung fu movie, but it's outdated now, isn't it? ”
Zhou Yu couldn't help but glance at this person.
Actually, he said it well, kung fu movies, it really looks outdated. But Zhou Yu knows that kung fu movies do not represent national arts. In kung fu movies, they are all artistically processed, not original.
And what he shoots must be authentic.
But before he could speak, the host said: "And kung fu is a technique that has many schools in the world. I think if you want to shoot, boxing or taekwondo or karate is more marketable. Because many people in the world practice these three techniques, the market is bigger. ”
Zhou Yu couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, and said, "There is some truth in your words. Indeed, taekwondo, karate, and the like are widely known all over the world. And the national art I am talking about, few people know. But in reality, you don't know much about the art of the country. In fact, whether it is taekwondo or karate, what they spread is just some side stories, which look good. But if you can really understand it, you will know that these two martial arts can actually kill people! ”
"Kill... Homicide? The host was taken aback.
"Of course. What I mean by national art is the skill of killing. Killing people at every turn, that's the national art. He smiled: "It's just that because of its danger, in today's environment, the cultivation of national arts cannot be exposed to the public, so it is not known." ”
"So," the host said curiously, "Mr. Zhou has ever seen such a martial art?" ”
Zhou Yu nodded: "Not only have I seen it, but I have also practiced it myself." ”
