One afternoon in early July, Sun Peng and his entourage rushed back to the capital.

After taking a shower when he got home, he didn't even have time to catch his breath when Lin Lin's phone called: "How is it, are you ready?" ”

“…… You ready! ”

Looking at the clock on the wall, Sun Peng nodded helplessly.

"That's great, our car will be here in ten minutes, you can change your clothes first!"

After hurriedly leaving the next sentence, Lin Lin hung up the phone. Sun Peng's eyelids jumped, and he looked at Zheng Jia next to him with a wry smile: "Yes, let's leave in ten minutes, you can go and help me pick out a dress...... You're really not going? ”

"No, I'm really not free today!"

first waved his hand to refuse, and then Zheng Jiacai smiled and said, "Hehe, who made your filming process delayed?" There's no way, the premiere of "The Matrix" has been scheduled a long time ago, and it can't be postponed because of you. ”

Spreading his hands, Sun Peng put on a look of grievance: "I understand, I understand, so I didn't say anything!" ”

Due to a mistake caused by an inconspicuous reason, the completion date of "League of Assassins" was postponed by half a month, and after the completion of the film, the actors left one after another, but Sun Peng and the two assistant directors stayed outside for another week before returning. And on the day Sun Peng came back, it was the premiere of "The Matrix......

"Well, I really don't want to go...... Jiajia, what if I make a phone call and say I'm too tired? ”

"Not good!"

Rolling his eyes, Zheng Jia said angrily: "Two blockbusters will be released at the same time this Friday, your "Matrix" doesn't have any upper hand, and now the premiere doesn't even show up the core characters in the promotion, what do you say?" ”

"Uh......"

Licking his lips, Sun Peng sighed helplessly.

There's no way, although Lotus Pictures and the Forbidden City have tried their best to spend money on the publicity, but compared with the super production "Galaxy Troopers", the gap is still desperate!

International director, and one of the top three directors in the world, Steve? Lucas.

Hollywood's superstar Michael? Pitt and A-list actress Helena? Jones.

Chinese first-line superstar Hu Tian.

And, of course, there's a lavish cast of Oscar-level production credits, from art directors to soundtracks, cinematographers to makeup artists, and an almost all-star cast. And the huge investment of 260 million US dollars is also a big publicity gimmick, which made this "Galaxy Troopers" popular before it was released, attracting a large number of fans!

So in the movie posters, the great director Steve? Lucas is also a name, and the focus of the promotion is still on those stars.

But look at The Matrix......

Even if it is also known as a Huamei co-production, with a total investment of 200 million US dollars, Sun Peng knows very well in his heart that everyone has water, but there is no doubt that "The Matrix" has more water than others! After all, the salaries of the directors and actors alone add up to almost all the costs of a big production.

Look at "The Matrix" again, after starring in two hit dramas and "Kill Bill" and "Keep Talking", Lin Lin is barely a first-line actor in China. But compared with Hu Tian, it is not on the same level, at least Sun Peng feels that it takes two more blockbuster works to catch up. The villain Lang Chen is even more unbearable than Lin Lin, although the traffic of Xiao Xianrou is large, but it is really difficult to say the appeal in the movie.

As for the actor Lynch, who is used to impact the overseas market? Hanks, and Michael? Peteby is a scumbag!

The one who can really do it is the screenwriter of the movie.

Lao Bai's name is not very obvious in China when he appears in the center of the movie poster, but in Europe and North America, and even in many Asian countries, another masterpiece of the screenwriters of "Frozen" and "Hurricane Rescue" is the focus of publicity. As for the director and those actors who are "not well-known", they have taken a back seat......

So thinking of this, Sun Peng was also very helpless.

It's not that I'm worried about the box office of "The Matrix", after all, he has already seen the finished film, and the picture is much stronger than the original, but the story has not weakened at all, and it should be a high probability event to be popular with the audience. It's just that when he thinks of another movie released at the same time, he is still a little unhappy......

helped Sun Peng choose a set of decent clothes, and while helping him put on his coat, Zheng Jia asked casually: "By the way, will you go to the Chinese premiere of "Galaxy Troopers" tomorrow?" Heard about Michael? Pete and Helena? Jones is coming! ”

"Huh? Do you want to go? ”

Turning his head to look, Sun Peng caught a glimpse of the faint expectation in his wife's eyes.

"Hee-hee."

didn't say whether it was or not, Zheng Jia tilted his little head and grinned.

Yes, this is the awakening of the soul of star-chasing.

Sun Peng sneered, nodded dryly, and said, "Go, what do you say about Michael?" Pete also called me personally to invite me, wouldn't I be sorry for my international friends if I didn't go...... Ah! ”

"What's wrong? What's wrong? ”

Sun Peng suddenly got up and exclaimed, which immediately startled Zheng Jia!

"It's a loss, it's a loss!"

The right fist slammed into his left hand, and Sun Peng was annoyed: "If I knew that this was the case, I should have sent an invitation to Pete and asked him to come to the premiere of "The Matrix" to join in the fun!" Now I just went to him, but he didn't have any trouble, I was a big loss......"

……

When Sun Peng walked on the red carpet of the premiere, the cheers instantly reached their peak, and I don't know if it was because of him or because of his cousin Lin Lin who was holding it in his hand.

Anyway, the hosts and reporters at the entrance of the theater were very excited when they saw Sun Peng.

However, Sun Peng, who was tired, was not interested in coping, so he hurriedly went in after a few casual sentences, which disappointed the host and reporters. As soon as he walked into the theater hall, Sun Peng saw an acquaintance he hadn't seen for a long time!

"Hi Lynch!"

"Good afternoon, Mr. Laobai!"

The moment he saw Sun Peng, the actor Lynch? Hanks immediately walked over quickly, shook Sun Peng's hand very carefully, and then greeted Lin Lin: "Hey, long time no see, Lin!" ”

Looking at Lynch, who was glowing red? Hanks, Sun Peng asked with a curious smile: "The United States should have been released at the same time that day, right?" You didn't stay over there for the premiere? In addition, it seems that he didn't see Megan, didn't he come to China? ”

Megan? Miller, Lynch? Hanks's girlfriend, Sun Peng was very impressed.

"I'll go back tomorrow, as for Meghan...... Ahem, she's pregnant. ”

"Oh, congratulations."

"Haha, thank you."

Hurriedly nodded, Lynch? Hanks smiled like a flower.

A pool of stagnant career has finally ushered in a turnaround, and although his girlfriend is unexpectedly pregnant, Lynch, who is running around? Hanks is also very much looking forward to the upcoming children, and he really feels that this is his luckiest year! And if the popularity of "The Matrix" in China can be successfully converted into a box office, and it can also win a good box office in Europe and North America, Lynch? Hanks really didn't ask for anything else.

So for the laobai who invited himself in the first place, Lynch? Hanks had nothing but gratitude.

And......

Remembering what the producer and director said to themselves before, Lynch? After Hanks laughed, he couldn't help but ask: "laobai, if the results of "The Matrix" are great, will there be a second part......
