Chapter 217: The Box Office Terminator

The family waited anxiously, and with a cry from Guawa, a new life finally came. Pen%Fun%Pavilion www.biquge.info(-)

Liang Xiǎo Long hurriedly ran in, didn't care about the child, and helped Rachel wipe the sweat off her face: "Baby, are you okay?" ”

Rachel smiled and shook her head, "Bring the child over and I'll take a look." When the child was brought over, Rachel's face was filled with the tenderness of a mother: "It's a boy, like you." ”

"Can you see that?" Liang xiǎo dragon has a black line: "A ball of red dudu, I'm not so ugly, right?" ”

"Get out." Rachel's face turned cold, and she immediately drove Liang Xiǎo Long out. Liang Xiǎo Long could only walk out in a gloomy manner: "It's like this, is it true that the aesthetics of NV people are different from our men?" ”

When they came to the living room, the family gathered around and discussed the name of the child, Liang Xiǎo Long immediately became anxious and shouted loudly: "The child is mine, and no one is allowed to compete with me for the naming right." ”

"If you're here, you won't have your share." Liang Jin scolded with a smile, and then continued to discuss the child's problem with Ye Ying. Helpless, Liang Xiǎo Long could only retreat to the second: "Leave the English name to me." But as soon as the voice fell, Rachel's voice came to his ears: "English names, of course, must be left to us British, your half-baked English will not work." ”

"Together, I can't catch anything?" Liang Xiǎo Long thought depressedly, this father is too disgraceful. Moreover, what made him even more depressed was that the old father and mother actually named the child Guohao, the most typical name in the eighties, which was too earthy, and in the end, he could only mourn for the child: "Son, it's not that my father is uneducated, if you want to blame your grandfather, blame your grandfather." ”

Rachel had already thought of a name for the child, and it was called Tiger. Beam. Liang Xiǎo Long was speechless again, isn't this Liang Laohu?

"I miss me, the king of Hollywood screenwriters, I don't even have a name for my son, and I have to give my son a bunch of luàn messy names......" The more Liang Xiǎo Long thought about it, the sadder he became. However, with the addition of a child, life at home has become more interesting, and it is worth mentioning that Rachel has also begun confinement.

Westerners originally did not go to confinement, and Rachel didn't want to stay in the room for a month, Ren Liang Xiǎo Long didn't persuade him in any way, but Ye Ying's words made Rachel obediently learn to be confined: "Why do you Western funv children grow old easily after a lifetime?" Rough skin is one thing, and not confinement is another. ”

Time passed day by day, Christmas passed in a blink of an eye, and Rachel was also freed from the misery of confinement, and after a while she was ready to take over the film again. Shirley finally persuaded the board of directors to spend $220 million to create a full-live-action version of Alice in Wonderland. Burton's offer to be the director did not pass, and in the end, I don't know how to convince Steven. Spielberg took on the role of director.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the key to the success of a blockbuster film lies in the director's rich imagination, and the most successful in Hollywood today is nothing more than Liang Xiǎo Long, Cameron and Steven, all of which used to be record-keeping. Moreover, with Steven as the director, it is also a good hype gimmick, Liang Xiǎo Long's script, Steven to direct, the combination of the two, and another $220 million to hit the box office list. I believe that many audiences will enter the cinema because of this.

After more than a month of rehearsals for the role of Sè, Jessica already has a deep understanding of the role of Sè, and it is easy for her to pass the audition and become the star of "Alice in Wonderland". In fact, this is also a mutually beneficial process, "Legend of Doom" is a box office hit, Jessica's popularity has skyrocketed, and truly stepping into the ranks of the world's top stars can stab the box office of Ji films to a large extent.

In addition, after seven weeks of hot screenings, the box office of "Legend of Doom" has also reached an astonishing height, with a crazy $574 million in the United States, $888 million at the overseas box office, and a total of $1.459 billion at the global box office.

"Crazy, huh?" Shirley looked at the numbers on the box office network extremely speechlessly, $1.459 billion, only $391 million from the $1.835 billion recorded at the box office, and "Legend of Doom" was only released for seven weeks, and the rest of the time, can't it still get $391 million?

"The nineties were the most fierce era for box office competition." Seeing this set of numbers, Mark let out a long sigh, "Jurassic Park" in 93 broke the record of "ET Aliens"; 9 The first film to break the billion mark at the box office, at the end of the same year, "Titanic" raised this record to the unattainable height of 1.8 billion. Unexpectedly, in just two years, the record was about to be refreshed.

"To paraphrase their Chinese saying, there are talents in the three generations of Jiang." Cameron also had to sigh, "Titanic" was his pinnacle work, but he didn't expect the record to only hold for two years. But this is really a bit of revenge, "Titanic" broke the record of "My Captain, My Regiment", and then "Legend of Doom" pulled back a game.

"The pressure is getting bigger and bigger...... Steven also sighed, "ET Aliens" and "Jurassic Park" are his masterpieces, and he was the first giant in the film industry before. But now, there are two mountains on his head: "Alice in Wonderland" must spare no expense to win back a game. ”

"Blockbusters are coming out like crazy, but I still like "My Leader, My Group" the most." Ying Mi smiled, whether it was the previous "Jurassic Park", or the next "Titanic", and now "Doomsday Legend", they all won with special effects, only "My Captain, My Group" attracted Ying Mi with its perfect plot and broke the record.

"I'm going to break the record?" Liang Xiǎo Long was a little dumbfounded, and at $1.459 billion in seven weeks, it has already surpassed the box office of "Million Dollar Baby". Moreover, according to the original setting, the film's release cycle is 17 weeks, which means that the film will continue to be released for 10 weeks, and how much box office can it win? $400 million is not a problem, right?

"You're just silly." Rachel gave him a blank look and urged, "Hurry up, help the child change the niào cloth." Liang Xiǎo Long immediately had a bitter face, he was a father for the first time, and the most terrifying thing was to change the niào cloth.

After a while, the family sat down in front of the TV again, because there was a very important event today, and the nominations for the new Academy Awards were about to begin. Liang Xiǎo Long is also full of expectations for this year's Oscars, "Legend of Doom" cost $280 million, perfect in every way, and should be a hot mén at the Oscars.

"Honey, will you get nominated for Best Actor?" Jessica suddenly asked, Liang Xiǎolong's performance in "Legend of Doom" can be called top-notch, and the box office of the film is so high and the influence is huge, there should be a certain chance to win the Oscar.

"I want to, too." Liang Xiǎo Long Wan'er smiled, and didn't make much evaluation, although the influence of "Legend of Doom" is great, his performance is also Jing Zhan, and I have to look at a certain amount of luck in this regard.

When the time came, the show was officially broadcast, and almost all of Hollywood's movie craze sat in front of the TV, waiting for the results to be revealed. The host first gave an explanation of the dynamics of Hollywood this year, and inevitably talked about the three films "Legend of Doom", "Star Wars Prequel" and "The Sixth Sense", "Legend of Doom" is very likely to refresh the record of the box office list; With a production budget of only $115 million, "The Star Wars Prequel" tells a complete space story, and "The Sixth Sense" set a new box office record for horror films.

Secondly, the host also introduced two other films, "NV Witch Blair" and "Ghost Shadow", the two latest DV movies, both of which are low-budget movies, but with their unique promotional techniques, they have unexpectedly high box office, providing new ideas for new directors to step into Hollywood.

After some introduction, it is time to start announcing the list of nominees: "The first thing to announce is the Best Foreign Language Film Award, there are a total of five nominees, which five films can be nominated?" Look at the big screen. ”

The five films that won the Best Foreign Language Film award were: "About My Mother" from Spain; "Traveling Caravan" from Nepal; "East, West", from France; Solomon and Gaino, from England; "Under the Sun" from France.

Hollywood filmmakers obviously don't care much about this result, and it doesn't have much to do with them anyway. However, it is worth mentioning that the film "About My Mother" has gained a strong international influence and won bad awards, including the 12th British Academy of Film Arts Best Foreign Language Film and Best Original Screenplay, the 12th European Film Festival Best Film and Best NV Leading Role, and the audience's choice of the most popular film, the French César Award for Best Foreign Language Film and the Honorable Mention, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and the New York Film Critics Association Award for Best Foreign Language Film.

Therefore, among the five nominated films, "About My Mother" is the most competitive and the most likely to win the Xiǎo Golden People.

"Five nominations for the Best Foreign Language Film Award have been produced, and we will announce the Best Sound Award next, and the Oscar organizing committee adheres to the principle of preferring shortage to abundance, so only four nominations have been produced, which four films will be?" The host pointed to the big screen, and four nominations followed, namely: "The Green Sè Miracle", "The Insider", "Star Wars Prequel: Phantom Crisis" and "Legend of Doom".

Liang Xiǎo Long high-fived everyone to celebrate, the first nomination has already been made, will the film inherit the glory of "Million Dollar Baby" and dominate this year's Oscars? Liang Xiǎo Long does have this ambition, but compared with "Million Dollar Baby", "Legend of Doom" has a fatal flaw, that is, the actor. In the film, the supporting roles of male NVs are negligible, and the competitiveness of the male NV protagonists is very xiǎo, and it is very likely to empty these four awards, so the competitiveness is far less strong than "Million Dollar Baby".

However, in other aspects, "Legend of Doom" is still very competitive, such as sound and visuals.
