Hollywood calls the penultimate year of the twentieth century the year of Atlantis-MGM Pictures, in addition to Wu Chen's own two films, the company also opened three films, one is "X-Men" 2, one is "The Matrix" 1, and one is "Soul Shifter". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The reviews of "Soul Shifter" after its release were very good, but there were not many highlights at the box office, but Jolie's performance was highly recognized by film critics, and the call for Best Supporting Actress at next year's Academy Awards was very high.

However, the box office of the first two films, especially "The Matrix", was simply frustrating, and with the help of Wu Chen's great investment, the box office did not hesitate to break the 100 million mark in the first week, staying at 160 million US dollars. "X-Men" 2 also performed well, and the box office also hit $100 million in the first week, but not much.

"Slumdog Millionaire" began to land in major theaters in North America in late November, and held a grand premiere. As Wu Chen's film to impact next year's Academy Awards, it has received attention from all parties as soon as it was released, and movie tickets have reached the point where it is difficult to find a ticket.

Since Wu Chen became a director, every one of his works is a classic, and every one of them is worthy of appreciation, and this concept has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The audience is looking forward to it, the journalists are looking forward to it, the critics are looking forward to it, the directors and actors are looking forward to it, and the cinema is looking forward to it even more.

Strictly speaking, this is a typical small-budget movie, with Wu Chen's usual generosity, it only cost more than 30 million US dollars, which is as much as 185 million US dollars in "Black Sun Crisis", which is really a small thing.

However, this does not belong to the kind of high-investment commercial blockbuster, there are not so many computer special effects, and it completely relies on the actors' interpretation of the roles to resonate with the audience, and then think, unlike that kind of popcorn movie, I feel very cool after watching it once, and then, it is gone.

"Some people may say that this movie is a broken fairy tale, I just want to say that every man is a prince in the eyes of his beloved woman, and every woman is also a princess in the eyes of his beloved man, if you have dreams, courage, and persistence, your love will be a perfect fairy tale, in the final analysis, it depends on whether you can pay for your beloved."

"Slums are a product of reality, and my purpose in making this film is to remind everyone, including governments, that there is still a needy group in need of help and care for them in the glamorous coat, they are our brothers and sisters, and we should face up to this phenomenon and eliminate it, instead of discriminating against them, hating them, and excluding them."

"There is no such thing as pie in the sky, and even if there is, it doesn't have to fall on your head! Do not succumb to your own destiny, strive to change your destiny, as long as you maintain hope, there will be a better life waiting for you, do not compromise, do not give up and are not afraid, you harvest at the same time to bring new opportunities to others. Wu Chen said at the premiere.

The audience buying tickets outside the cinema is actually more than 1,000 meters long, and many people are waiting to watch the second or third show, which is Wu Chen's previous talent show, and the strong influence it brings, and there is no need for the reputation of the first show, the audience just wants to watch it, and they have to wait in line for several hours to watch it.

"When I reach the step of the boss, I will be content, this is a small-budget movie with an investment of only 30 million US dollars, we spent more than 100 million US dollars, if we are beaten down by this movie, it will be the director's problem." The Wachowski brothers were furious in the movie theater at the premiere.

"Come on, our theme and the boss's theme are two concepts, action and science fiction, how can it be compared with such a literary movie, this is the work that the boss uses to impact the Academy Awards, the artistic level is different, and the result is naturally different." Brian, the director of the second part of "X-Men", said.

"The Guinness Book of World Records movies opened with more than 4,600 theaters at the same time, and such treatment is almost a miracle for a love-themed movie, and "Titanic" does not have such a scene." Jessica was a little dazzled as she looked at the dense crowd.

"If I can star in such a film, I will die of happiness, and I don't know when I will have such an opportunity!" Julie was a little blushing when she saw it, she was originally a character who did not admit defeat, and she looked at the glamorous Aishwarya, and she was a little jealous in her heart.

"Are you the seeded contestant for Best Supporting Actress at next year's Academy Awards, or is Mr. Wu Chen personally named to shoot, personally wrote the script and personally formed the crew, are you not satisfied with such treatment?" Rebecca said beside her.

"Best Supporting Actress is still a supporting actor after all, even if it is the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, I hope to be the best actress, maybe only Mr. Wu Chen can help me achieve my wish." Julie said without hesitation.

The gold content of the Academy Awards is different, the salary for getting the best supporting actress and starring in those commercial blockbusters may be around five million US dollars, and if it is the best actress, that is, the actress, the salary will be more than 10 million US dollars!

The boss of the film company personally competed for the Academy Award, but all the actors who participated in the film company films would come to cheer, in addition to those actors who hoped to get the role, and some directors with an attitude of watching and learning, the premiere was more lively than the Academy Awards.

"Director Wu Chen still maintains his high standards, the movie "Slumdog Millionaire", the plot twists and turns are unforgettable, there is no doubt, 100 points!" That's an assessment from The Hollywood Reporter.

"100 points for "Slumdog Millionaire" is not enough to describe the classic of this film, this is a great work that touches the heart with tears, and many viewers complained about director Wu Chen, saying that he brought too few tissues!" The New York Times commented.

"Director Wu Chen fulfilled his words, he wants to move towards the great goal of winning the Best Director at the Academy Awards for three consecutive years, thank him for his talent, bring us such an excellent film, the hero and heroine in the movie should be even more grateful to him, perhaps, the actor and actress will appear in the same movie!" The Los Angeles Times reported.

After the premiere, according to the usual practice, the crew also held a grand celebration banquet at the Beverly Hills Hotel, but this time Wu Chen was not drunk, not because he was too drunk, but because he was called away by a phone call, which made many people disappointed.
