Chapter 53: The Defensive Expert Who Didn't Deliver a Punch

Zhou Yuwei is obviously a little dissatisfied with the fact that "The Night the Comet Comed" won the Best Screenplay Award instead of winning the Best Picture and Director awards at the Sundance Film Festival, and was even more dissatisfied with the box office after the film's release.

After "The Night the Comet Comed" was bought out and released, the box office was less than one million US dollars, although it has recovered the shooting cost and made a lot of profits, but compared with the box office of "Midnight Bell" in North America, the gap is really not a little bit and a half.

Zhou Yuwei was very dissatisfied with this, and even a little doubtful that Wang Lei deliberately favored one over the other and preferred her sister, otherwise why would the box office gap between the two movies be so big?

Wang Lei was very helpless when he heard this, and he didn't know how to explain it, because looking at Zhou Yuwei's expression, it seemed that he was just joking but seemed to be very serious.

In order to keep Zhou Yuwei from thinking nonsense, Wang Lei simply took out the script of "Home Alone".

After telling Zhou Yuwei about the plot of the movie "Home Alone", he said to Zhou Yuwei, who was laughing so hard that her stomach hurt: "Ah Wei, as long as you shoot this comedy well and release it on the Christmas schedule, it is guaranteed that the North American box office will break 200 million and the global box office will break 500 million, and everyone will know your reputation as director Zhou Da at that time!" ”

"Really?" Zhou Yuwei looked surprised.

"Of course it's true, didn't you just laugh when you listened to my story? This is suitable for all ages, and it will definitely be popular when it is released during the Christmas schedule. Of course, the premise is that you have to shoot well. In addition, after filming, let your sister find her fellow students and hand it over to Columbia Pictures for you to distribute and release, remember to ask for a share of the box office this time, maybe this movie will make you a billionaire! Wang Lei swore an oath.

The movie "Home Alone" was a super blockbuster in the previous life, with a box office of nearly $300 million in North America and $530 million in the global box office, and it was not difficult to shoot, unlike literary films or special effects blockbusters.

Of course, the premise is to find a young actor with a lot of aura.

Zhou Yuwei was very happy that Wang Lei gave her such a script, but she was still a little worried: "Lei, I'm afraid that I won't be able to shoot well and ruin this good script, or you can draw me a storyboard script like last time, try to be as detailed as possible, so that I can know it in my heart!" ”

Wang Lei nodded and said: "Okay, I'll get you a storyboard script, you go to find an actor, you must find a very aura little actor, whether it can sell as much as I said, it depends on whether the little actor you are looking for is good!" ”

Zhou Yuwei said: "Okay, I like to deal with children the most, so I'll leave this matter to me!" ”

Zhou Yuqiang, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two, couldn't help but ask, "Lei, Weiwei, I'm afraid it will cost millions of dollars to shoot your movie, right?" How do you get the money? ”

Zhou Yuwei shut up when she heard this.

She can still get thousands of dollars, but millions are gone.

But I heard Wang Lei smile and said: "I will give the funds, this movie will definitely sell well after it is made, and the money I have earned recently is just used for investment!" ”

Zhou Yuqiang said suspiciously: "Lei, do you really think this movie can have a global box office of 500 million US dollars?" ”

Wang Lei nodded and said, "It shouldn't be much worse, if it can't reach me, I'll ......."

Wang Lei originally wanted to make a joke about Zhou Yuqiang, but suddenly thought that this was his sister-in-law, and his fiancée was sitting in front of him, so he was very clever and kept his mouth shut.

Zhou Yuqiang didn't know what he thought, so he couldn't help but give him a roll of his eyes.

Wang Lei laughed wryly, and suddenly thought again: It seems that the movie "Home Alone" was also produced by 20th Century Fox?

What's wrong with my brother, how can I reborn and write almost all the scripts from the 20th Century Fox Company, could it be that my brother in the previous life had a grudge against the 20th Century Fox Company?

I don't think so!

Because of the "bodyguard" Neeson who has been secretly protecting, Wang Lei accompanied Zhou Yuqiang and Zhou Yuwei The sisters almost visited the night market in Atlantic City without encountering trouble. It wasn't until twelve o'clock that the two sisters, Zhou Yuqiang and Zhou Yuwei, finally felt tired and returned to the Caesar Casino Hotel with Wang Lei.

It is estimated that it was because he came back too late, and Sadler, who had been waiting for him in the room, had a very unsightly face when he saw him, and his eyes kept going back and forth between Wang Lei and Zhou Yuwei, which made Wang Lei extremely helpless.

After Zhou Yuwei and Zhou Yuqiang went to another room to rest, they explained to Sadler that nothing had happened to them, and told Sadler not to think nonsense.

Sadler snorted and said something meaningful: "Remember, king, that women make your feet weak. If you want to be a boxing champion, it's best to stay away from women before the fight! ”

Wang Lei rolled his eyes again: "Got it, Sadler, I told you that I didn't have anything to do with Weiwei, even if I didn't think about it, at this time, her sister kept staring at us!" ”

Sadler said, "I didn't say it was your fiancée!" ”

Wang Lei: "......"

Fortunately, Sadler is not a stubborn old man who eats the past, and he did not say much about Zhou Yuqiang and Zhou Yuwei's sisters. In addition, Wang Lei honestly got up early to train with him the next day, and Zhou Yuqiang and Zhou Yuwei's sisters didn't bother, which made Sadler a little pleasing when he saw Zhou Yuqiang and Zhou Yuwei's sisters at night.

The time soon came on the evening of June 12th, and it was time to compete with Bai Rentie.

Because Wang Lei's xenomorph fight against Japanese wrestler Nobuhiko Takada in the last match has caused Wang Lei's popularity to increase a lot, and the nearly 13,000 spectators who came to buy tickets for this match are almost all for him.

Because Bai Rentie's ranking is higher than Wang Lei, Wang Lei played first in this game.

Wang Lei once again showed off his tricks at the appearance ceremony, he appeared in the smoke in a black robe, and when he walked under the ring, he wrapped his whole body in a black robe, and his body suddenly disappeared, allowing the black robe to fall to the ground freely.

When the attention of all the spectators was attracted by the black robe that fell to the ground, smoke suddenly rose from the middle of the ring, and Wang Lei, who was wearing only golden shorts and red gloves, appeared from the smoke.

The wonderful magic escape performance immediately aroused cheers from the audience, and they all applauded and supported it.

The media reporters present found that there was news to write again.

It seems that this Chinese child is really versatile, talented in boxing, can write scripts and novels, not to mention, and can actually play magic.

I don't know what he learned?

In contrast, Wang Lei's opponent Bai Rentie's appearance ceremony was dull and boring.

Fortunately, the audience did not come to watch the performance, but ultimately had to watch the boxing match.

And after the game began, it really gave the audience another surprise.

Wang Lei showed that his responsiveness has improved a lot in the first round.

In the first two-and-a-half minutes of a round, Wang Lei landed just three jabs, each of which accurately hit his opponent Bai Rentie. And Bai Rentie threw more than a hundred punches, but amazingly, he couldn't hit Wang Lei with a single punch.

Wang Lei just kept jumping and shaking in the first two and a half minutes of the first round, only relying on flexible footwork and upper body shaking to dodge Bai Rentie's fists, but he magically avoided Bai Rentie's fists completely, allowing Bai Rentie's every punch to pass by him and fail to land on him.

In the past two and a half minutes, Wang Lei basically did not throw punches, and only when Bai Rentie went crazy and forced him into the corner of the ring, he would throw a jab to get out of trouble.

Dodged more than 100 punches from Bai Rentie and only returned three jabs.

The astonishing performance reminded the audience of the featherweight champion of the '40s, Willie Piper.

Known as the greatest defensive expert in boxing history, a defensive wizard, and a "tap dancer" in the ring, Willie Piper debuted at the age of 18 and became the youngest featherweight champion at the time. Characterized by a combination of speed, agility, grace and flexibility, his defensive skills are unmatched, and he once won a round without a single punch.

Wang Lei's performance may not have been as impressive as Willie Piper, but his quick reflexes and style still made the older fans in the audience see Willy Piper's shadow.

Wang Lei only dodged and did not attack, mainly to try the effect of the "Nine Deaths and One Life Training" conducted at his grandfather's place.

The effect is really magical, and the reflexes are definitely a big step up from before.

After dodging for two and a half minutes, Wang Lei didn't take a punch, and Bai Rentie, who kept attacking, was a little out of breath.

Seeing this, Wang Lei stopped playing and attacked decisively.

With a "bang", after a jab hit Bai Rentie's face, Wang Lei's jab turned into a left hook and smashed heavily on Bai Rentie's face.

Bai Rentie was beaten to the point that his upper body shook, and he immediately knelt down.

The referee hurriedly stepped forward to separate Wang Lei, and then faced Bai Rentie for a few seconds.

Bai Rentie was very tenacious, and when the referee only counted to five, he stood up and shouted loudly: "I'm fine!" ”

The referee still counted to eight, then looked into Bai Rentie's eyes, and when he found that he was indeed fine, he waved his hand to indicate that the game continued.

Wang Lei pounced, and the combination of heavy punches bombarded again.

With two seconds left in the first round, another heavy right hook knocked Baek to the canvas.

However, the bell at the end of the match saved Bai Rentie and allowed him to survive the first round.

During the break, Sadler scolded Wang Lei fiercely, telling him not to play defense and go all out to knock the opponent down.

Wang Lei apologized and accepted Sadler's opinion.

So at the beginning of the second round, Wang Lei took the initiative to attack.

In less than thirty seconds, Bai Rentie was knocked down by Wang Lei with another heavy punch.

This time the bell couldn't help Bai Rentie, the referee counted the seconds to ten, and Bai Rentie couldn't get up.

As a result, Wang Lei won the knockout victory again.

At the same time, he also replaced Bai Rentie in the ranking of the WBA boxing organization and ranked third.

In his next bout, Wang Lei will face Marlon Starling, who holds two welterweight belts in the WBA and WBC.

He is only one step away from becoming a boxing champion!
