Chapter 388: Philatelic Success (Subscription Support!) )
…
The myth that "The Wandering Earth" has achieved a box office of nearly 10 billion is not over, because of Xu Kai's huge fame and huge resources in Hollywood, "The Wandering Earth" has also achieved a super high box office of more than 500 million beautiful gold in North America.
That's it, it's not over, because "The Wandering Earth" is too famous, and many countries and regions are introducing "The Wandering Earth".
It can be said that "The Wandering Earth" is a cultural export work in the true sense, and many foreigners who do not know about China and its people are the ones who have a preliminary understanding of China and its people through "The Wandering Earth".
Seeing the dazzling achievements of "The Wandering Earth" and its unparalleled status in the history of Chinese films, the key is the quality of "The Wandering Earth", Shen Hehe became more convinced of Xu Kai, knowing the huge gap between her and Xu Kai, and also knowing that she still has a long way to go on the road to being a good director.
Shen Hehe originally wanted to study hard with Xu Kai for a few more years by Xu Kai's side, and then go out to make movies independently.
But not long after, Xu Kai suddenly gave Shen Hehe a movie script.
The story goes like this.
In two days, Li Li is about to enter the sacred marriage hall, in order to spend a carnival night of "farewell to singleness" that he will never forget, he and his three good buddies Zhang Wen, Zhao Si and Allen drove to the casino. But when the three groomsmen woke up the next morning, they were not only suffering from a hangover, but also had no memory of what had happened the night before......
That's right.
This script is the Hollywood movie "The Hangover".
It's just that Xu Kai nationalized "The Hangover", made some changes, and added more laughs.
After getting the script of "The Hangover", Shen Hehe was like a treasure, she felt that the idea of "The Hangover" was very good, and she also had the desire to shoot it.
So, with Xu Kai's encouragement and support, Shen Hehe mustered up the courage and decided to change his original intention and direct independently again.
On the other hand, Xu Kai not only encouraged and supported Shen Hehe to pick up the handle again, but also asked a number of domestic film bigwigs to support Shen Hehe again like last time.
Not long ago, Xu Kai first filmed "Living Together in Time and Space", and then filmed "The Wandering Earth".
This not only made all the domestic movie bigwigs make a lot of money, but also made their company's stock price soar to its heyday, and it has increased on this basis.
The key is that Xu Kai opened up the film market, and also set an industry benchmark that a movie can sell nearly 10 billion box office, which gives a number of domestic film companies unlimited opportunities to make money.
Therefore, a lot of domestic movie bigwigs owe Xu Kai.
Therefore, Xu Kai opened his mouth, who among the domestic movie bigwigs can not sell Xu Kai's face?
Moreover, after a group of domestic movie bigwigs fully supported Shen Hehe, if Shen Hehe's movie makes money, they can not only get Xu Kai's favor, but also make money, and if Shen Hehe loses money, it will be even better, Xu Kai will definitely come out to wipe Shen Hehe's ass like last time, so they can earn more.
In short, listening to Xu Kai's help Shen Hehe, how many domestic movie bigwigs are making money.
Therefore, a number of domestic movie bigwigs showed non-party enthusiasm for Shen Hehe's filming of "The Hangover".
But—
is different from the last time Shen Hehe did not refuse to take the money of a number of domestic movie bigwigs.
This time, Shen Hehe did not get the production fee from a group of domestic movie bigwigs - all the production fees for "The Hangover" were paid by Happy Maizi.
There are three main reasons why Shen Hehe is like this:
First, Shen Hehe doesn't want a group of domestic movie bigwigs to be involved in the filming of "The Hangover".
If a number of domestic movie bigwigs invest in the production of "The Hangover", then they will definitely recommend some actors from their own companies, just like when Shen Hehe filmed "Fortress", Shen Hehe used a lot of actors recommended by domestic movie bigwigs.
Some of them actually didn't want to be used by Shen Hehe.
But Shen Hehe was embarrassed, so he used it in the end.
It turns out that those who come in by connections are really not good.
This time, Shen Hehe is ready to go all out, only find actors she thinks is suitable to cooperate, and resolutely not be kidnapped by capital.
Therefore, Shen Hehe can't take the investment of a number of domestic film bigwigs.
Second, Shen Hehe doesn't want to owe too much favor to a group of domestic movie bigwigs - Shen Hehe thinks that if she loses again, she must not let Xu Kai's next movie be shared too much cake by a group of domestic movie bigwigs.
Xu Kai's "The Wandering Earth", all the channels before and after are added together, and Xu Kai has almost to be divided into 2 billion profits.
In this regard, Shen Hehe was both distressed and regretted his previous conceit.
Third, Shen Hehe felt that she might be able to shoot this "Hangover" this time.
If this is the case, then bringing a group of domestic movie bigwigs is tantamount to giving them money.
This is something that Shen Hehe, who wants to make up for the more than 2 billion he owes, is unwilling.
In fact, more importantly, the total investment of "The Hangover" is not much, even if Happy Maizi doesn't give Shen Hehe this money, Shen Hehe can find her father to get this money, there is no need to let a lot of domestic movie bigwigs get involved.
In short, with Xu Kai's full support, Shen Hehe fought again for the New Year.
But—
Unlike last time, Shen Hehe was so conceited, this time Shen Hehe took a small part and showed it to Xu Kai for inspection, if Xu Kai said that the shot was not good, Shen Hehe would immediately reshoot.
It can be said that Shen Hehe fully respected Xu Kai's opinion this time.
It can also be said that although "The Hangover" is directed by Shen Hehe, there is still the shadow of Xu Kai in it.
It's just that this time, except for the position of screenwriter in "The Hangover", Xu Kai did not hold any other positions, which fully highlighted Shen Hehe.
In this way, with the help of Xu Kai, "The Hangover" was released in the Chinese New Year file as scheduled.
As soon as the midnight show ended, Shen Hehe knew that he had succeeded this time, because the evaluation of "The Hangover" was very good.
"The Hangover is a hilarious family comedy with a lot of flavor."
"Compared to the pre-release expectations, The Hangover is really a surprising movie."
The theme of "The Hangover" condenses the subconscious content of psychoanalysis, and shows the tendency of modern people to seek excitement and carnival due to mental depression. In terms of creative techniques, the film adopts the perspective of the common people, uses the suspense to the extreme, and truly records the language of life, bringing visual and psychological pleasure to the audience. Yu Qingyun is worthy of the most outstanding film master of our time, it sets an unbreakable iron law of plot, well...... Shen Hehe also performed well this time, and finally lived up to the name of Yu Qingyun's apprentice. ”
“……”
Prompted by a good reputation and escorted by capital, "The Hangover" finally achieved a box office result of 1.9 billion.
At the celebration banquet, Shen Hehe drank too much, and said a lot of words of thanks to Xu Kai in public, she said that without Xu Kai, there would be no her Shen Hehe today, she said that she had nothing to repay Xu Kai, she said that she was the luckiest girl in the world because she worshipped Xu Kai as her master, and she said that she wanted to give birth to Xu Kai......
Seeing that Shen Hehe was talking more and more, Xu Kai hurriedly took Shen Hehe away from the celebration banquet.
After sending Shen Hehe to her own room, and carrying Shen Hehe to the bed, Xu Kai wanted to turn around and leave.
But as soon as Xu Kai was about to straighten his waist, Shen Hehe suddenly hugged Xu Kai's neck, and then looked at Xu Kai and asked, "Master, why are you so good to me?" ”
Xu Kai smiled and said, "You are not my apprentice, I should be good to you." ”
Shen Hehe said in disbelief: "Liar, you say, do you like me?" ”
Xu Kai said very calmly: "Yes, but it doesn't matter, you don't have any psychological burden, I'm a person, you know, flowery, fraternity, and I'm not the sun, it's impossible for everyone to revolve around me, besides, if there is no regret at all in life, it is actually a regret." ”
Saying that, Xu Kai wanted to take Shen Hehe's hand away and end this ambiguity.
But Shen Hehe not only didn't let go, but also hugged her tighter, she looked at Xu Kai and said seriously: "If you are willing to have regrets, you can go to others to find them, I will not give you regrets here, and I don't want to regret myself." ”
After speaking, Shen Hehe kissed Xu Kai, and hugged Xu Kai to the bed with all his strength......
At this point, Xu Kai completed the stamp collection of Dong Ni's bedroom, and the first joke made by Shen Hehe was finally confirmed and concluded in Shen Hehe.
……
On this day, Xu Li suddenly came to Xu Kai's house for dinner.
I don't know if Tian Haitang's meal today is too delicious, and after Xu Li sat down, he was bored and ate by himself.
When Xu Kai saw it, he knew that Xu Li must have something in his heart, otherwise he would not be like this.
Therefore, Xu Kai took the initiative to ask: "What's the matter, is there something unpleasant between Tang Yun and Ma Lili?" ”
Xu Li said vaguely: "No, after using the method you said, I basically got rid of the two of them." ”
Xu Kai also heard some about this from others, and now Xu Li is also at home with red flags and colorful flags fluttering outside, basically getting Tang Yun and Ma Lili done.
Of course, in this process, Xu Li paid a lot.
First of all, in order to avoid arousing Tang Yun's disgust, Xu Li rarely appears with Ma Lili in the form of CP now-now Xu Li's female partner is Zhen Xiaoling, a comedy star who likes women and will not be jealous.
In addition, Xu Li also handed over all his financial power to Tang Yun.
Also, Xu Li took out more time to accompany Tang Yun, and similarly, in order not to snub Ma Lili, Xu Li also tried to spend the same time with Ma Lili.
This somewhat affected Xu Li's work and made Xu Li a little tired.
Therefore, not everyone can open a thick palace.
may let Xu Li choose again, he should not have two more wives.
Xu Kai asked again: "That's not Tang Yun and Ma Lili's business, what is it?" ”
Xu Li listened, paused, and then continued to eat.
Seeing this, Xu Kai frowned and said, "Between our brothers, do you still have to talk so hard?" If you have anything to say, just say it, don't say it, don't read it. ”
Hearing Xu Kai say this, Xu Licai raised his head and said, "That...... Big brother, can you come to our show last time? ”
Xu Li has no film works in recent years, and his main job is to be a regular guest with Zhen Xiaoling in a variety show called "Ace".
And what Xu Li said about being on their show should be on the variety show "Ace".
To be honest, with Xu Kai's current super high status in the entertainment industry, it is not suitable for this kind of variety show, because this will reduce Xu Kai's compulsion.
But Xu Li spoke, and Xu Li obviously had something unspeakable, so Xu Kai didn't say a word, so he agreed: "Okay, let's arrange it." ”
At night.
Xu Kai flipped over Yang Xinchun's sign.
After doing something, Xu Kai put his arm around Yang Xinchun and asked, "What's wrong with Xu Li, why did you suddenly invite me to his show?" ”
Yang Xinchun put his backhand around Xu Kai's tiger waist and said, "You really haven't heard any wind at all?" ”
“?”
Xu Kai frowned: "What kind of rumors?" ”
Yang Xinchun didn't sell Guanzi, but said bluntly: "Now there are rumors outside that you and Xu Li are at odds." ”
"Discord?"
Xu Kai said: "Me and Xu Li? ”
Then Xu Kai smiled: "How can I not get along with Xu Li, he is my only brother." ”
Yang Xinchun said: "The problem is that Xu Li is your only brother. ”
Xu Kai was even more puzzled!
Seeing this, Yang Xinchun sat up and said, "Think about it, how many years have you and Xu Li not cooperated?" ”
Xu Kai calculated carefully, he and Xu Li had not cooperated for five or six years.
Then Xu Kai somewhat understood what the problem was.
Seeing that Xu Kai had realized the problem, Yang Xinchun said more directly: "In the past few years, although Xu Li has also filmed several film and television dramas, the response is very average, and it can't be compared with him at the beginning of his debut. ”
After a pause, Yang Xinchun continued: "And you have made a great breakthrough in Hollywood, becoming the world's No. 1 director, the world's No. 1 musician, and an international superstar, with continuous works, and after returning to China, you even filmed "Living Together in Time and Space" and "The Wandering Earth", but there is no Xu Li in these works, and even Xu Li is not in Hehe's "The Hangover". ”
Xu Kai took over and said, "So there are rumors that I am at odds with Xu Li? ”
Yang Xinchun nodded: "The main thing is that Xu Li's road has become narrower and narrower in the past two years, and he has not even filmed a film and television drama in the past three years, he can only rely on variety shows to make a living, and he no longer looks like an actor, and you have a lot of resources in your hands but you don't pull Xu Li, so outsiders guess out of thin air that there is a problem between your brothers." ”
Yang Xinchun said again: "I think Xu Li probably doesn't want to hear such a voice anymore, so he wants you to be on his show and break the rumors of discord between you." ”
Xu Kai didn't say: "The reason why I don't cooperate with Xu Li is that I don't want Xu Li to live in my shadow, I want Xu Li to make a world in the entertainment industry by himself, and I want Xu Li to be Xu Li, not Yu Qingyun's younger brother." ”
Instead, he muttered: "It seems that I need to open another movie for Xu Li." ”
