Chapter 215: The next week's box office
Liang Xiǎo Long didn't know that Shirley had fooled Mark, but it didn't matter, the key was to write the script quickly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In his previous life, Liang Xiǎo Long liked the plot of the film "Alice in Wonderland" very much, which can actually be seen from the original Xiǎo said, otherwise it would not have been translated by more than 50 kinds of prophecies to form hundreds of versions. However, there is one point, Liang Xiǎo Long is still relatively depressed, and Disney actually used a combination of live-action and animation to complete the film.
For this, Liang Xiǎo Long didn't know whether to say it badly or whether to say it well. It's hard to say, because he personally doesn't like this way very much, if the various characters and animals in the film can be truly restored, wouldn't the visual effects be better? Well, that's because this way can attract more xiǎo children to the cinema. He once even thought that Disney would be suspicious during his lifetime, because the cost of a film shot in this way is definitely less than that of a full-live-action version. Of course, there is another factor to consider, Disney's own animation industry is very developed, so the shooting can be completed in its own company, and you only need to pay the cost.
But whether it's good or not, Liang Xiǎo Long doesn't want to be made into a combination of live-action and animation anyway, in the words he said when he first stepped into the film industry: Even if you can't see new movies, you have to see different old movies.
"Alice in Wonderland" tells the story of 20-year-old Alice and her mother go to a banquet and find themselves proposed in front of many arrogant and arrogant people. So she follows a white rabbit to escape into a dong and enter the fairyland. Alice had been here 13 years ago, but she didn't remember anything about it now. Here, Alice is reunited with her adorable old friends: the bluffing dormouse, the beautiful White Queen and her hated sister Queen of Hearts, as well as twin brothers, the Máomáo bug, the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, and more. In her magical adventures in Wonderland, Alice learns that she has a great mission, which is to lead the inhabitants of the underworld to end the evil reign of the Queen of Hearts and restore the former Wonderland.
Alice who returns to the real world from "Wonderland". Kingsley, who has long forgotten all about the fantasy encounters she once had, even so, she has grown into a beautiful 20-year-old NV person, and still thinks that life itself is a dreamlike adventure full of unexpected twists and surprises. At a party her parents had hosted for her at the Victoria Garden, Alice was surprised to find that she had an admirer and asked her to marry her. Escott, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Escott, has the stupidity and cunning that a rich man is accustomed to cultivating in an overly pampered environment. Alice, who was taken aback by Hamish, quickly fled the ongoing banquet before she could react to his proposal...... Then, she was surprised to see a rabbit in a horse clip and a watch bag running quickly ahead.
Following "Mr. Rabbit" closely across a large meadow, Alice watched as he disappeared into a rabbit dong. Then, suddenly, she found herself falling into it too, turning over and over through a strange, dream-like passageway, until she reached a circular hall surrounded by countless méns—eating me's cakes—and her body grew again...... Eventually, Alice chooses the mén she wants to walk into, and she enters an amazing fantasy world where the people and creatures who live there call the land "life underground."
Here, she meets a zoo-like variety of characters, from a dormouse who likes to bully and bluff to the "Mad Hatter" who is wrong; From a "smiling cat" to a máomáo bug named Absolon who loves a hookah; From the máo-skinny "Queen of Whitesè" to her resentful older sister "Queen of Hearts" - although she has a bad temper and loves to make Xingko, she is the true master of the "underground life". After a series of dangerous accidents, Alice will rediscover her lost self in this wonderful world that is as illusory as a fairy tale.
"Actually, it's a coming-of-age story, and I believe young people will like it." Liang Xiǎo Long smirked while reminiscing, Alice in the film is nineteen years old and is no longer the xiǎonv child who doesn't understand anything. She often had nightmares about wandering in strange forests full of talking animals—it wasn't a dream, it just didn't get it. And at the age of nineteen, she also has a lot of troubles with little NV, such as being married by someone she doesn't like because of her family's fame and wealth; For example, I saw a lot of yin dark sides in the world, but I was forced to deceive myself and get by. However, after she fell into the fairyland for the second time, in the process of completing her "fate", Alice's mind gradually grew, and finally she was no longer the weak young NV, but became a young man with her own opinions, daring to spit out the truth, and brave to take risks. After returning to the real world, Alice was able to decisively refuse the marriage proposal, puncture the seemingly perfect life of everyone around her, and dared to cross the ocean to China to "pan for gold".
Of course, the story is also a critique of the social landscape of the time, where the funvs of high society were so bound by Victorian ideas that they could not find a balance between their dreams and the expectations of their friends and family. Alice is the same, but after a peculiar adventure, she grows, she knows what she doesn't want, so she refuses, knows what she wants, so she works hard.
"What are you smiling at?" Then he took the card and pushed him, thinking that he was thinking about something bad.
"Can't you laugh when you're happy?" Liang Xiǎo Long glanced at her, people, you have to laugh when you should laugh, otherwise you will only suffocate yourself.
Jessica smiled sweetly: "Then dear, as a lover, do I have the right to share happiness with you?" ”
"Okay, then I'll tell you." Liang Xiǎo Long hugged Jessica and told the fantasy story of Alice, the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, the March Hare, the Red Queen, the White Queen and others, a fantasy story that is light-hearted and joyful, but full of adventure.
Jessica listened to it with fascination, and soon liked the story: "Honey, do you think I can play the role of Alice well?" "She is preparing to take on the film recently, and now that she has a good script, she naturally wants to fight for it.
"It's hard to say." Liang Xiǎo Long frowned, in the past few years, Jessica has filmed many films, and her acting skills have also been greatly improved, and the performance in "Legend of Doom" is very satisfying. As for whether she can perform Alice well, Liang Xiǎo Long is not easy to judge: "Moreover, I can't be the master either, the script is what Shirley wants, and the choice of those actors has to be decided by her in the end." ”
Jessica immediately sent a fragrant wěn and lay it in his arms: "Honey, our two companies have such a good relationship, you help write the script again, tell Shirley, she has no reason to disagree." ”
Jessica is not wrong, with the relationship between the two families, if it is a general film, it is a matter of one sentence to have an actor enter. But this film is different, Shirley is determined to create a super blockbuster, and it is impossible to make mistakes in any link: "Sweetheart, otherwise, let me tell Shirley, you go to audition after a while, as long as the performance can pass, I guarantee that you are the protagonist of the NV." ”
"That's pretty much it." Jessica sent another incense wěn: "In order to be sure, while you are writing the script, I also have to rehearse well and get to know this role in depth." ”
"It's a pity that the baby is about to give birth, otherwise I can call you etiquette." Liang Xiǎo Long said that it was a pity, in fact, in his opinion, it is more appropriate to find a British NV actor, because the film is full of heavy British court flavor.
"You say I don't know etiquette?" Jessica immediately raised her eyebrows, and there was a tendency to erupt.
"I want to go there." Liang Xiǎo Long hurriedly calmed her down: "This is a British-style film, and it depicts a medieval British aristocracy, so it is natural to show that kind of temperament." Of course, that thing is fake, like shit, but we still have to learn it. ”
"I love to hear that." Jessica giggled and rolled her eyes: "But you're not afraid that the baby will hear it?" ”
"Hear it, hear it, British etiquette is inherently ......" Liang Xiǎo Long was about to talk about it, and out of the corner of his eye, Rachel was standing at the entrance of the room. However, he was not afraid of danger and decisively changed his tone: "It's troublesome, but it's elegant." You see that the British NV people are all so elegant and likable. ”
"It's too slippery." Jessica giggled.
"Can you do it without slippery?" Liang Xiǎo Long glanced at her, and ran to help Rachel in a hurry: "Baby, why don't you lie on the chuáng." ”
"Slippery head." Rachel also gave her a blank look: "The doctor said that moving around more during pregnancy is more conducive to the health of the fetus." ”
"Okay, then I'll help you walk around the yard and start today's prenatal education by the way." Liang Xiǎo Long is very conscious, since he is idle from work, he is also a full-time father-to-be, usually cooking and washing the floor at home, and he does not leave anything behind. When he was free, he pulled Rachel and gave prenatal education to the soon-to-be-born child.
"Oh my God, I'm going to get my headphones on my headphones." Jessica couldn't stand it, Liang Xiǎo Long gave the child prenatal education, which was nothing more than crying wolf with a broken gong voice, and without wearing headphones, the family couldn't stay at all. But who told Rachel to take this bite?
In the following week, Liang Xiǎo Long stayed at home to write the script, and Jessica also began to get busy, going out to learn British etiquette from the etiquette teacher during the day, and going home at night to discuss the role of Alice with Liang Xiǎo Long. And in such a busy, the box office of the new week came out again, and "Legend of Doom" continued to top the box office list without any suspense, collecting $121 million in seven days in China, and the total box office in China was as high as $236 million. Overseas, $135 million was swept away even more frantically. The total global box office has reached $371 million.
Ten days after its release, $371 million, a staggering figure, everyone has already seen that there is another strange flower on the box office list.
