Chapter 281: Good Reputation, Unexpected Scolding (I)
Chapter 281 Good Reputation, Unexpected Scolding (I)
As soon as the trailer of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" came out, fans' expectations for this film skyrocketed.
The poetic pictures, elegant and smooth movements, super star lineup, etc., undoubtedly aroused the curiosity of fans.
The film was first released in China and Asia, then in North America, and then in Europe and other regions, and although it was not released simultaneously around the world, it was also widely distributed.
There are not many Chinese films that can be distributed in various regions of the world today. It can even be said that there are very few. However, Wen Yi's current films are being released around the world one after another. It started with Resident Evil, followed by Kung Fu, Kung Fu Panda, and now Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Of course, if you count the second release of "Ip Man", there will be one more.
Now Wen Yi is extremely popular all over the world, his fans are all over the world, his movies naturally have no market, the box office is guaranteed, and film companies around the world are naturally interested in his films.
What's more, although the Chinese kung fu craze set off by Wen Yi has slowly dissipated, the crowd of people who like Chinese kung fu has undoubtedly become larger, and there are naturally more people who like Chinese kung fu movies, and there are more people who love houses and Wu, and who like Chinese movies.
Moreover, this film is also directed by Wen Yi. This first is also a Chinese movie that won the Oscar, and it still interests many people.
"In 2007, hehe, how many years have I been in this world? Four. Or five? Wen Yi smiled. Shook his head. Then he went back to Yang Jun and said, "How many years have you been with me?" β
"It's been almost five years!" Yang Jun said with some confusion.
"Oh!" Wen Yi nodded.
Before, he didn't care what year it was, and he didn't even pay attention to which year he came to this world. Of course, without attention, not without any impressions.
It's just four years, or five years, and I'm busy. I really didn't calculate it.
Five years, wouldn't I be twenty-six years old now?
came to this world, directly participated in the summer singing rookie competition, and then established a company, Yang Juncai followed himself. In this way, it has been five years since I came to this world.
It's been five years, things are people, but it doesn't seem to have any sense of existence at all, or in Wen Yi's heart, there is no memory at all. Even if his experience has been spread all over the world. and even become a legend.
But none of that seemed to belong to him.
"I remember you were two years older than me, and the last time I heard that you were introduced to a girlfriend at home? How. When do you plan to get married? In your hometown, the twenty-eight-year-old family should urge you to get married, right? Wen Yi asked again.
"It's urging at home, but we have to wait!" Yang Jun smiled and said. Although he didn't know why Wen Yi suddenly asked about his private affairs this time, he still replied with a smile.
The previous Wen Yi never had anything to do with this. I have been with him for nearly five years, and this is the first time I have met him. In fact, he found that after Wen Yi made this film, there were some changes, but he could feel it, but he couldn't say it clearly.
"You follow me everywhere, get together with your girlfriend less and leave more, she has no opinion?" Wen Yi suddenly asked.
"She's fine." Yang Jun smiled shyly and said, "Never complain to me about anything!" I'm working like that, and she understands it. What's more, she's still your fan! β
"When we talk about friends, maybe distance produces beauty. But after getting married, it's different. Oh, I've heard from others. Wen Yi then said, "If you want to get married that day, I will arrange a place for you in the company and you can settle down." If you get married and have a family, you need to be stable, and you can't run around with me. It's not good to get together less and leave more! β
"Huh! She's not going to make a fuss. Yang Jun smiled and said, "What's more, when I get to the company, I won't do anything else!" I can't stay even if I go. β
"Huh! With so many departments in the company, there will always be a place for you. You are familiar with the affairs of the security department, and I believe that it will be familiar with it very quickly. Wen Yi smiled, and then said, "What's more, you stay by my side and learn boxing from me, and now you are a master, if you don't want to go to the company, I will call Master Sun and let you go to their martial arts hall to teach boxing, and there is no problem." β
"Forget it! I'm still used to being around you. Yang Jun shook his head, he naturally heard Wen Yi say that these things were for his consideration.
"If you want to stay by my side, stay there. Sister Wen is doing more and more things now, if your girlfriend is interested, come to me as an assistant, and after getting acquainted, then be my agent! Wen Yi said suddenly.
Yang Jun looked at Wen Yi and didn't speak, just nodded.
The assistant of the star, to nothing. Even if it's Wen Yi's assistant. But if he becomes Wen Yi's assistant, there is no doubt that the two can get along day and night.
But agents are different, especially those of international stars like Wen Yi. Whether it's income, or status in the circle.
Wen Yi has changed. The first thing I felt was Yang Jun, which had nothing to do with Wen Yi caring about him and letting his girlfriend serve as Wen Yi's assistant.
The first thing he felt was because he had spent the longest time with Wen Yi.
Wen Yi seems to care more about the people around her and the things around her. He is no longer a workaholic. Although the schedule is still the same, the living habits have changed a lot.
He seems to be slowly blending into the world.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was released in the summer, with simultaneous releases in China and various parts of Asia on July 1, followed by North America a week later on July 8, and then in Europe and the United States on July 15.
Wen Yi's films are in the limelight, especially this film, which brings together many outstanding filmmakers in China, and the cast is also unprecedentedly strong. Other film companies in China have postponed their main films or released them earlier in order to avoid this film.
No film company is willing to fight Wen Yi again. is Bona Film and Television, which has always had a grudge with Wen Yi, this time, in order to avoid Wen Yi's film, a modern action blockbuster co-produced with Hollywood was directly postponed for a month, in order not to fight with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".
They are really scared, last time they had a hard time with Wen Yi, if "Biochemical Virus" didn't have a good reputation, otherwise they would have lost everything. But the word-of-mouth did not lose, but the director switched to Jiayi, and he lost so much that he didn't even have his pants.
This cooperation with Hollywood, the investment is huge, and it has opened a precedent for Bona Film and Television, if there is another encounter like "Biovirus", even if Bona Film and Television has a big career, I am afraid it will really hurt my bones. Therefore, Bona Film and Television Industry didn't care about any face-saving issues, and directly postponed the release.
With a huge investment in this film and such a strong cast, holding a premiere is a natural thing. However, for the premiere of this film, Wen Yi didn't pay much attention to it, and handed it all over to the rest of the company.
He's just going to participate when the time comes. There are some things that you don't have to do yourself.
Wen Yi's popularity in the circle is already good, and his current identity is different. Whether it is the growing owner of Jiayi's company, or his own identity as a world-renowned filmmaker, he has attracted many celebrities to the stage.
On June 30, 2007, on the red carpet outside the largest theater in the East China Sea, the stars were shining, in addition to the invitation, there were also big stars who were not invited but came on their own initiative. Coupled with the signed artists of Jiayi Company itself, it is natural that big names gather.
"Honestly, is your new film already in preparation? What kind of film, can you give me a role? The protagonist is not playing, and the supporting role is okay. Liu Qinghua said to Wen Yi with a smile.
Wen Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard it, he didn't expect that Liu Qinghua's first words when he saw him were actually this.
"My new film?" Wen Yi shook his head, and then said, "Don't talk about preparations, the script hasn't been written yet, and I haven't even thought about what to shoot!" β
"It can't be perfunctory, right?" Liu Qinghua looked at Wen Yi and didn't believe it. There is no way, almost all of Wen Yi's films were released before, and the new film entered preparation. This time, it suddenly changed, and it really made people a little unbelievable.
"I want to take a break!" Wen Yi said, "This film takes too much energy, and some of it is too draining. β
"I heard that you put a lot more thought into this film than the previous "Kung Fu", no wonder Director Xu is full of praise for your film. I can't wait to see it. Liu Qinghua smiled and then said, "However, I'm more interested in your new film!" Because you put more and more thought into your film, and Cheng DΓΉ, who receives more and more attention from the world, is also getting bigger. β
"Huh!" Wen Yi smiled and was about to speak, but his face suddenly turned pale, and then he pulled Liu Qinghua by the hand, and then said, "Be careful!" β
Liu Qinghua was wondering why Wen Yi was pulling him, when he suddenly saw a bag of something flying from where he was standing just now, and then smashed on the ground, emitting a foul smell, and his face suddenly changed.
Being splashed with feces and smashing eggs is not unheard of in the entertainment industry. But Liu Qinghua has never met it. A long time ago, he was shot at the head by the underworld at gunpoint, but he never met anyone who threw anything at him, not even a bottle of mineral water.
"It's supposed to be coming at me, you're just being caught up." Wen Yi patted Liu Qinghua's shoulder and comforted. However, his eyes narrowed into a slit, murderous aura.
And at this time, another bag of things was thrown in from outside and smashed at Wen Yi, this time it was relatively more accurate.
And along with that thing thrown in, there was a sentence: Wen Yi, you return my Yuyan! You pay me back!
It's not uncommon for crazy fans to do crazy things. But when Wen Yi saw the man's eyes, he clearly did not have the slightest madness, but flickered a little timidly. (To be continued......)
