Chapter 156: An Abnormal Year

Chapter 156: An Abnormal Year

A grunt broke the peace in the locker room, but neither Jessica nor Rachel seemed to hear it, and Sophie could only pretend not to hear it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Rachel's hand suddenly crossed Sophie's waist: "Sophie, your waist is so thin and soft, Jesse, how do you describe it?" Jessica immediately chimed in: "It's called the water snake waist, and the man likes it the most." Then, she held Liang Xiaolong and said in a loud voice: "Honey, did you say yes?" ”

Liang Xiaolong felt a wave of heat, from the dantian, straight to the Tianling Gai, if it weren't for the wrong time and place, it was estimated that he would have been crazy. He swallowed, but he didn't know how to answer, because no matter how he answered, it was impossible to satisfy all three women at the same time. Of course, he has the answer in his heart, in terms of waist alone, Jessica is undoubtedly the most perfect, a real water snake waist, while Rachel and Sophie are relatively rich, with the flavor of a woman. It can be said that each has its own merits and charms.

Rachel's fingers swept over Sophie's body wantonly, praising Sophie with every word, and the atmosphere became very abnormal. And looking at them, the scorching heat in Liang Xiaolong's ti was getting stronger and stronger, and he was on the verge of exploding, but she knew that Rachel and Jessica had already begun to make moves, and they must not show the slightest trace at this time, so he hurriedly made an excuse: "I'll go and see if the set is finished." Then, quickly exiting the locker room.

Liang Xiaolong fled out in embarrassment, exhaled a long breath, expelled all the abnormal thoughts out of his mind, calmed his mind, and then busily instructed on the spot. Sophie also came out of the locker room, and exhaled the same, but it was a little inexplicable, what did Rachel and Jessica want to do?

Only Rachel and Jessica giggled and high-fived each other in the locker room. Jessica laughed, "Did you just pay attention, his eyes are about to breathe fire." Rachel smiled: "That's what you want, but don't worry, in their Chinese words, the coming day is long, let's take it slowly, if we don't teach him to be good, can we still have a good life in the future?" Jessica agreed: "That's right, afterwards, we must let him understand that women are tigers, and if they meet, they will avoid it." ”

When night fell, and when they returned home, Rachel and Jessica each ran to take a shower, but when they came out, Liang Xiaolong's eyes were about to fall. Rachel only has a loose white T-shirt on her body, and her snow-white thighs are in full view, and she goes up and down with exquisite curves, revealing this hazy feeling that makes people's blood swell. Jessica wore a loose, coffee-colored shirt that, like her skin, was wild.

Looking at the two beauties, his mind couldn't help but recall the ambiguity in the locker room, the blood began to swell, and the madness began to recover. He walked over to taste the forbidden fruit, but was stopped by them, and Rachel sighed: "Hey, I've been busy all day, I'm going to die of exhaustion, I have to rest well today, my dear, just bear with it." Jessica also said: "I really don't know the hardships of drama without being a drama manager, it's too tiring, if you don't rest today, you won't be able to go to work tomorrow, my dear, I'm sorry." Then, they walked into the room in a hurry, and at the end, they smiled back: "Honey, we know that you will not be honest, so you should sleep in the study at night." ”

Then, he locked the door, leaving Liang Xiaolong alone and stunned. Now, he finally understands how these two women are going to make a move, how to say it, make you can't see and touch, make your heart itch, but eat it again, and suffocate you alive. Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but smile bitterly, in this special period, he could only endure it.

Such a day is by no means a day or two can end, Liang Xiaolong has understood what it means to be sinned, every day makes your heart itch, as if you are in a furnace, but at night you can only stay alone in the empty room, and the days are miserable. Time passed day by day, the war between them has entered a white-hot stage, and the box office of the sixth week of "My Captain, My Regiment" has come out again, compared with the previous week, it has remained relatively flat, and the local box office has won 320,000 US dollars, and the total local box office has exceeded 300 million, as high as 3.o2 US dollars. The overseas box office also maintained a flat trend, winning 530,000 US dollars, and the total overseas box office has reached 419 million US dollars. The total global box office is $721 million.

Six weeks, $721 million, the strong box office capacity is still in the plateau, and no one seems to doubt that "Jurassic Park" can continue to hold the Hollywood box office record, and "My Captain, My Regiment" can definitely give it a fatal blow. And this week, the box office leader is still "Immortal Spirit", which swept 750,000 US dollars in China and another 70,000 US dollars overseas, and won 1.51 US dollars this week alone. In other words, during this period of time, Chinese-themed films dominated the top spot in Hollywood's box office charts, which is definitely the first time in Hollywood history. Even, some media use the word "miracle" to describe this situation.

"I don't know if "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" can continue this situation?" Liang Xiaolong couldn't help laughing, if three consecutive films dominate the top of the Hollywood box office list for a long time, what can it mean? It means that Chinese themes have been widely accepted, and that Chinese themes have gone global?

However, this can only be a fantasy, on the box office list, "My Captain, My Regiment" and "Black Tide SWAT Team" have entered a plateau, and "Immortal War Spirit" has made its debut on the list, and it seems that it is going to calm down. However, things are not so simple, and "Jurassic Park 2", which Warners built with a lot of money, was also released and participated in the competition for the box office list.

"That's too messy, isn't it? What's going on this year? So many high-grossing films are actually squeezed together? Browsing the page, Rachel has a dizzy feeling, in these four films, "My Captain, My Regiment", "Black SWAT Team", and "Immortal War" have all proven their strong ability to grab the box office, and the predecessor of "Jurassic Park 2" is a record of the box office list, and there is definitely no problem at the box office. In this way, four films are on the box office list at the same time, which is also the first time in the history of Hollywood, which is an unprecedented glorious event.

The media has also conducted in-depth research on this situation, because blockbusters are together, which will inevitably lead to strong competition, and the box office of each film will be affected, but the box office of these four films has not been affected, is it too abnormal? What's more, this year has also led to an economic crisis, and the economy of the United States has also been greatly affected, why can the box office be so strong?

The reporters interviewed a lot of fans and finally came to two conclusions, first, it is also the basis of the film's high box office, that is, the quality of the film, no matter what aspect it is, the quality of these four films is difficult to find fault with, and it is not surprising that they are loved by fans. Secondly, it is precisely because of the economic crisis that the box office has been maintained, and the arrival of the crisis has made people's spirits more empty, and at this time people's spirits need a support, and these four films are exactly in line with this, so people are very willing to spend a little money to enter the cinema to play the extra time and replenish the spiritual feast.

In response to this situation, the Los Angeles Times wrote: Film is an art that invisibly affects people's lives, but we are very fortunate that when the economic crisis came, the major film companies were not greatly affected, and they have launched good films, so that the audience can have a good spiritual sustenance after experiencing hardships in real life. I have to say thank you to all the filmmakers in Hollywood

"This year's box office is very unusual, but these reports do a good job of interpretation." Liang Xiaolong couldn't help laughing, he knew the film market in 97 too well, and he could only say that the film market in 97 was not significantly affected by the economic crisis, but it was indeed too much to describe it as brilliant, maybe it could be called brilliant because of "Titanic". Other films, only "Black SWAT Team" and "Jurassic Park's fourth" "Tomorrow's Empire" also only grossed $340 million.

And he has invisibly changed this situation, "My Commander, My Regiment" and "Immortal War Spirit" have stimulated people's desire to watch movies. hope, in addition to giving people an extra support for their empty spirit, it has also promoted the growth of the box office. Moreover, "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" and "The Matrix" will also be released soon, and he believes that a number of high-quality films of different types will continue to stimulate the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies, and also keep the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies for a long time, so as to achieve the true glory of 97 years, rather than relying only on "Titanic" to prop up the table.

"I'm going to work, I'm going to work." Liang Xiaolong pulled up the two women, but couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, as a young man with far more energy than ordinary people, this week's life can no longer be described by the word "sin", but can only be described by the words "life is better than death".

"Let's go, you go drive, we'll wait for you at the door." Rachel and Jessica walked towards the door, but they couldn't help laughing in their hearts, their tactics had initially worked, and I believe that if it lasted for a month, it would definitely leave a deep and indelible memory on Liang Xiaolong.

"A ruthless, infatuated, and ruthless person came to give you a scar......" drove to the set, and the singing voice in his ears made Liang Xiaolong frown, and it seemed a little familiar: "It seems to be "Single Love Song"." At this time, he suddenly remembered, isn't this the song he wrote for Andy? Could it be that Andy's album has already traveled in the United States?

Liang Xiaolong hurriedly stopped the car and shouted, "Bill, where did you learn this song?" Bill couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "Captain, you can do it, you really can, I've heard it all, these songs were written by you, and now that the album is out, you don't know, cow, it's too good." ”

Liang Xiaolong smiled, he was busy with the family civil war for a while, and he was busy with filming, so he didn't pay attention to other things at all, sometimes Carl called him to ask him to go to the company to discuss some things, but he directly pushed it, saying that if he couldn't decide, he would discuss with Liang Jin and Ye Ying, they were the emperor and queen mother of Yanhuang Film Company, and they couldn't decide without them. It is probably for this reason that Carl and Andy did not inform him.

But now that I know, I have to care about it, after all, I wrote it myself, plagiarized, and he also promised Andy that when the concert is held at the end of the year, he will definitely come on stage to help. Liang Xiaolong called Carl: "Man, what's the name of Andy's new album?" Carl rolled his eyes in his office, "I thought you didn't care, Emerrt, this song is so well-known in the United States that it's the perfect title for the album." Liang Xiaolong nodded and asked again, "What about the sales?" Can it be accepted or not? Carl laughed: "This is the first album released by our audio and video company, and it also brought us the first pot of gold, and the sales can only be described as hot." The album has sold 370,000 copies in just five days, and in a few days, the album will be available in European countries. ”

Five days, 370,000 copies, Liang Xiaolong couldn't help but be shocked, for a rookie singer who has just stepped into the United States to achieve such results, it is estimated that it can only be described as a miracle. As he was talking, he heard Bill Wolf howling not far away: "I moved the heavens and the earth, why can't I move you......"

"The singing voice is good, but this level is too ...... It's awkward" Liang Xiaolong can only use these two words to describe it in the end, feeling that Bill's singing voice is English, with a local accent. However, he also has to admit the charm of classic songs, whether it is "Single Love Song" or "Touching Heaven and Earth", they can not only be popular for a while, but can be remembered for a long time.

Liang Xiaolong called Andy again: "Brother Hua, I'm sorry, I didn't even have time to congratulate me on the new album." Andy smiled: "Come on, I heard Carl say, your problem seems to be quite serious recently, so I won't trouble you." But you must attend the year-end concert, you are the guarantee of the ticket. Liang Xiaolong smiled: "Come on, based on the current sales of the album, the concert will definitely be full by then." But I'm worried that one concert won't be enough, and I think you need to prepare a few more sets, preferably to tour a few big cities in the United States. Andy smiled: "I also have this plan, and I plan to sort out some old songs from the past, pick out some classics, and do it in the United States." ”

After chatting for a while, Liang Xiaolong was busy on the set again, and when he passed by Sophie, he heard: "How was this time?" He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Miserable, bear with it again, anyway, the filming cycle of this film is very short." Sophie chuckled softly, "I'm fine, take care." ”

In the torment, the days passed day by day, and the box office of the new week came out again, the box office of "My Leader, My Group" fell relatively a little, but for a film that has been in theaters for seven weeks, its box office is still quite stable, winning $20,000 in the United States, and the total domestic box office is as high as $330 million. There was also a certain decline at the overseas box office, which was $470,000 this week, and the total overseas box office was as high as $475 million. The total global box office exceeded the 800 million mark, reaching as high as 500 million US dollars, and only another 120 million US dollars could be used to rewrite the record of the box office list.

And the film's current strong box office capacity is almost no problem to collect another $120 million, and the media has begun to make arguments - the world box office will be rewritten, and "My Captain, My Group" will top the world. Of course, seeing such a title, Liang Xiaolong only had one kind of helplessness, if only "Titanic" could be released two years later, at least let "My Captain, My Group" sit on the throne of the champion.

However, this week, "My Captain, My Group" has been very low on the box office list, "Jurassic Park 2" has reached the top of the box office list without any suspense, and "Immortal Spirit" is close behind, and it seems to be biting back again. In addition, the newly released comedy "The King of Words" also received a good response, with Zhou winning $470,000 and sitting on the throne of the third place.

More and more good films are released, making the competition in the box office list more and more fierce, but this is no way, the box office list in the first half of this year can almost be described as lifeless, except for "Perfect", "Six Heroes of Light Pigs and Leaky * Point" and "Hercules" and other films have achieved good responses, there are no films with a high box office, and there is not even a film with a box office of more than 400 million US dollars. This also proves from the side that most of this year's good blockbusters are concentrated in the second half of the year, so at the beginning of the second half of the year, the competition on the box office list has never stopped.

However, fans like chaos, the more chaotic the better, and the more chaotic the better. And the film company also cooperated with the requirements of fans, and "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" produced by Paramount Company was also released and participated in the competition for the box office list. For this film, the audience is still quite looking forward to it, first of all, Andy has an excellent performance in "100% Men" and has accumulated quite a lot of popularity in the United States. This year, the album Emerrt was released, which sold well and became more popular, and the films he starred in were naturally more popular.

In addition, this is Hollywood's third Chinese-themed film this year, and the first two have maintained strong box office capabilities, so what about this one? Can it also kick "Jurassic Park 2" down like "My Captain, My Regiment" and "Immortal Spirit" and top the box office list?

Liang Xiaolong saw the film at the screening, although the investment in this film is only 10,000 US dollars, Michael. Bei is worthy of being one of the top directors in Hollywood, and the film looks magnificent under his control. In addition, with the help of Zhang Yimou, various battle formations in ancient China were also fully reflected, which made the fans at the scene addicted.

Of course, what is more important is the plot, Qin Qiong is like the god of war, with a certain psychological dubbing, his righteousness, morality, justice, and benevolence are vividly expressed. Liang Xiaolong saw it at the screening, and many fans were deeply moved, and there were only two heroes for Qin Qiong's evaluation.

"I don't know how it will be at the box office, but I want to make it into a series, which should be sought after by fans." At the end of the screening, Shirley smiled and shook hands with Liang Xiaolong, although she didn't know what the final box office was, but through the screening scene, you could see the screening.

"It's really a great film, and your company's screenwriting team is good enough." Liang Xiaolong also has to admit that the level of Hollywood screenwriters is indeed high, and if the same story is handled by domestic screenwriters, it is estimated that it will be at the level of filming "The City is Full of Chrysanthemum Nails".

"They were all found from the Screenwriters Guild, and the level is really high." Shirley smiled: "So, what do you think of the final box office of this film?" You're a master of box office estimates. Liang Xiaolong smiled bitterly: "Now that the Hollywood box office list is in a mess, who can see through it, and now that "Jurassic Park 2" has reached the top strongly, it is difficult to say whether "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" can be outstanding." ”

Liang Xiaolong is indeed difficult to be sure, although "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" is screened, and "Jurassic Park Week 2", but "Jurassic Park 2" was a film with a box office of more than $600 million in the previous life, and whether "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" can defeat it can only be defeated by a zigzag

Liang Xiaolong went over to Michael and said, "Man, I like it so much, congratulations, you have succeeded again." Michael rightfully accepted his compliment: "yes, now I'm just waiting for the box office to come out and then make it a series, you know, a series that is successful enough to keep a director in Hollywood for a long time." Liang Xiaolong couldn't help rolling his eyes, Michael was right, the success of the series can make it relatively easy for directors and actors to succeed, but it depends on who says this, with Michael's level, it's not easy to gain a foothold in Hollywood?

Don't talk about the future, let's just say that now, there are a lot of sets waving banknotes and asking him to make films, but he turned him away.

The chaos of the box office list also made Liang Xiaolong pay more attention to the box office list, almost every day when he gets up, he will pay attention to the box office list, "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" is indeed a film with a perfect integration of art and commerce, and won a box office of 7oo US dollars on Monday, which is already a very high level. However, it is a pity that "Jurassic Park 2" still maintains a strong box office ability, winning $750,000 on Monday, pressing "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" by a less obvious advantage.

However, it is not unreasonable to say that the box office list is chaotic, and on Tuesday, "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" came from behind, with $1.55O over "Jurassic Park 2" $1.53O for two days, and its advantage is almost negligible. But even the slightest advantage is an advantage, and even a dollar difference will separate the championship and runner-up spots. The two films are stuck on the box office list like this, today I will suppress you a little, and tomorrow it will become me suppressing you, until Friday, the situation finally changed, because the weekend is coming, the number of moviegoers is more, and the box office is relatively easy to change.

In five days, the box office of "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" was $420,000, and in the strong response of "Jurassic Park's first part", it finally had a relatively obvious advantage, and it was firmly on the top spot with a box office of $450,000. The situation on the box office list is finally clear, with "Jurassic Park 2" as the second, "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties 2" is second, and others such as "Immortal War Spirit", "My Captain, My Regiment", and "Black Special Police Team" are not qualified to compete with them. Perhaps, at this time, everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and finally don't have to watch the melee on the box office list every day. Those ironsteel fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and they don't have to go to the cinema to support their beloved stars to spend money and support the box office.

However, is this really the case? Yanhuang Film Company just won't let everyone stop, and "The Matrix" will also be screened over the weekend and released next Monday. This film is very worth looking forward to, because it is the film with the largest investment of Yanhuang Film Company in more than two years, and it is 20 million US dollars higher than "My Captain, My Group", what will happen in the end?
