Chapter 235: Nolan's Invitation
Wang Jiawei was silent for a while before asking, "What is the Huabiao Award?" ”
"Two months later."
Wang Jiawei almost didn't drop his sunglasses on the ground, "Take two months off?" We've only been filming for a year, are you embarrassed? ”
"You, a person who doesn't even have a script for filming, are you embarrassed to talk about me?"
"Then I can't agree to you for two months in a row."
"Then when will you be able to get your lines ready?"
"Hmm...... Wait for the Huabiao Award to be a week in advance before you leave. ”
Seeing Wang Jiawei talking about him like this, he avoided answering when to get the lines out, Huo Yunting tugged at the corners of his mouth, this subtext just couldn't be made.
"That's okay, I don't ask for the leave of the Huabiao Award, I'll first ask for a leave of pre-publicity of Xianjian San."
Wang Jiawei's mind was full of question marks, "What Immortal Sword Three?" ”
"A TV series filmed before was launched on the 28th. And I also want to take Liu Yifei, he is the second female lead. ”
Wang Jiawei thought about it, can he get the lines of the script out on the 28th? No.
It's not bad for Huo Yunting to go far away, so he doesn't have to look at his face every day, and this person chokes with himself if he is fine, where is the majesty of his director?
"Master Huo, I've always been very generous, you just go to yours."
"Yes, Lao Wang, I'm relieved to have your words, then we'll see you in July."
"Wait a minute, it's not the twenty-eighth - toot, toot, toot......"
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yunting went to find Ning Hao and them out to eat.
There are not many people, only four, Ning Hao and Xu Zheng, himself and Lao Huang, these are all old friends from the time when "Crazy Stone" was filmed before.
The Iron Elephant Award ended relatively late, and many nearby restaurants were closed, and it took nearly half an hour to find a barbecue restaurant with the lights on.
Ning Hao went in first and asked for a private room, and then several people blocked their faces and quietly walked in, but they were still glanced at by the proprietress yawning in front of the counter.
"Eh! Nong is Huo Yunting? ”
"Can you ask Nong Yi to sign it?"
"I'm glad I don't."
Huo Yunting didn't understand Shanghainese dialect very well, but he could guess a rough idea when he looked at the proprietress holding a pen and paper expectantly, that is, to sign it.
Happily signed his name, and then made a boo gesture with the proprietress and said, "Don't be silent." ”
"Yes, yes."
After taking the signature, the proprietress happily looked around the counter, and the two people next to Huo Yunting were selectively ignored.
Xu Zheng and Huang Bo stared at each other for a while, and then Xu Zheng said depressedly, "Let's go, people don't look down on us." ”
When they thought that their brothers were covering their faces like thieves before, they were a little panicked, and people didn't like them at all.
Looking at Huang Bo and Xu Zheng with embarrassed faces, Ning Hao was extremely happy in his heart, thanks to him being behind the scenes, otherwise he would have to lose face today.
Looking at these old friends around him, Xu Zheng couldn't help but feel a little depressed. When "Crazy Stone" was filmed, Ning Hao and Huang Bo were all pure newcomers, and Huo Yunting's ability to suppress him.
Now Huo Yunting has become the most accomplished among their gang, winning three actor stars in one film, and even if he eats and drinks in the future, he can earn a lot of money just by receiving endorsements.
Ning Hao is now the fourth director in the mainland to break 100 million at the box office, and he is very young compared to the three old guys, and the future is promising.
As for Huang Bo, although he has not achieved much, he is good at riding the wind with his back against the big tree. Being an artist under Huo Yunting, coupled with their old friendship before, they can't starve to death no matter what.
If you think about it carefully, this lap looks like you're the worst mess.
Xu Zheng's mood took a sharp turn for the worse in an instant.
Ning Hao and Huang Bo are both popular with double guns, and Huo Yunting has never had a bad movie.
He has received more films than these two combined, but his current achievements are not low, and he is almost on par with Huang Bo.
At this moment, I suddenly thought that when the host presented the Best Actor Award to Huo Yunting at the awards ceremony, Wang Xueqi applauded with a complicated face, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in his heart.
"Fight, what are you thinking about? Drink. ”
When they came back to their senses, the skewers had already been served, and Huo Yunting and they were pouring wine.
"Haha, I'm so happy."
Xu Zheng squeezed out a smile on his face, and also poured a glass and touched it with a few people.
"Bell" collided with a few crisp sounds, and the four of them drank it all in one gulp.
Huo Yunting glanced at Xu Zheng without a trace, and the cup was the lowest when he just clinked glasses.
This old boy also learns from Huang Bo.
When old friends have dinner, they can't help but recall the eventful years of the past, so they talked about the days when they filmed "Crazy Stone".
"Huang Bo, do you remember the scene where you filmed the sewer? At that moment, I thought, Hiccup, you, your last sentence was from the heart. ”
"Don't say it, Lao Huang, I felt that your kid's acting skills suddenly took a big step up, and the co-authorship was a revelation of true feelings."
"Damn, Lao Huo, do you believe this? We've been in vain for so many years, am I the one? ”
"Aren't you the man?"
Several people were talking and laughing, and Xu Zheng was also sipping wine one after another.
"Zhengzi, you have also started to gain momentum with this crazy two-part trilogy."
Huo Yunting suddenly opened his mouth and happily filled him with a glass, "The next awesome film will soar into the sky." ”
Xu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and found that what Huo Yunting said was really reasonable.
Compared with the three around him, his pace is indeed slower, but looking at the entire entertainment industry, his pace of progress is indeed not slow.
People are more popular than dead people. turned the corner, and my heart was inexplicably relaxed.
"There are a lot of good films, and there are many awesome films, but those that suit me may not be so easy to find." Xu Zheng rubbed his shiny head, "It's hard to find a good show." ”
"You still have to find a good agent for a good show."
Huo Yunting's words were meaningful, and Xu Zheng was a little hesitant for a while.
But in the end, he took a sip of the wine, "My current contract hasn't expired yet." ”
"Don't worry, Zhengzi, your level of directing and screenwriting is no worse than your actor."
Huo Yunting said this sincerely, Xu Zheng had already shown this sign when he was filming "Crazy Stone", otherwise he would not have thrown an olive branch.
"Lao Huo, I'm satisfied with your words." Xu Zhengman, holding the wine glass in both hands, "Don't say much, it's all in the wine." ”
After this meal, Huo Yunting found a nearby hotel to stay, and the 28th Xianjian 3 was broadcast, Li Guoli would definitely come to him, so he would simply stay first.
On the morning of the next day, the news of Huo Yunting's three crowns was swiped on a small scale, but the discussion was limited, after all, no one knew about the Iron Elephant Award, and the gold content was not too high.
The popularity is small, but a film wins three actors, and the name of the triple crown actor still sounds good.
"One film wins three actors! 》
"Who is the one who wins the most actor with a film"
"Triple Crown Actor! 》
Looking at various discussions on the Internet, Huo Yunting couldn't help but regret that he joined the crew of "The Grandmaster" in such a hurry.
If the start time of "The Grandmaster" is moved to July, the name of this three-crown actor can be used to make an extra three or five million from Wang Jiawei.
But after thinking about it again, this little card in July is not very suitable, so it should follow Lao Wang's will and shoot at the end of this year.
At that time, the popularity of Xianjian III will also come up, not to mention adding an extra three or five million, let alone adding another seven or eight million. ”
The more Hu Yunting thought about it, the more it made sense, tnd herself was a blood loss.
My heart was aching, and a call suddenly came from my mobile phone, and sure enough, it was Li Guoguo.
Huo Yunting happily took it and got straight to the point, "Lao Li, have you eaten that machine?" ”
"Huh? I can't remember what machine is not machine. ”
"Wow, play stupid, huh?"
Li Guoli hurriedly diverted the topic, "I'll eat next time we meet, and I'll eat next time." ”
"On the 23rd, a few of you leading actors will participate in a column variety show to promote it, I have already said hello to your agent, and I guess I should talk to you about this in a while."
Huo Yunting nodded, "Then are you coming?" ”
"I'm not coming, the signal is not good, I'll hang up first."
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Teng, who was in a hurry, came to Huo Yunting with Zhang Debang's highest order and reported to him about participating in the variety show on the 23rd.
"Brother Huo, the scripts are all here, you see. Just follow this shell, as long as you don't say it's crooked. ”
Huo Yunting looked at the script, and Shen Teng chattered on the side, in addition to this online variety show promotion, he had to go to all parts of the country offline.
“…… By the way, Brother Huo, there is another thing, this year's Bazaar Star Charity Night also invites you, the theme is caring for seriously ill children-"
"Don't go, push it."
Shen Teng was stunned for a while, "Brother Huo, this charity night is getting bigger than the other, let-"
"In the future, all the tweets about this Bazaar Star Charity Night."
When he heard the words charity night, he would think of the day he went to Wuqiao County for poverty alleviation, he stuffed the money, and Zhang Debang took pictures in the back.
The old man with the money was at a loss, and the gray-faced child on the side bit his fingers blankly...
“…… It's almost the same as Bazaar Star Night. ”
Huo Yunting rubbed his frowning brows, this was the most disobedient thing he had ever done in his life.
Seeing the boss's attitude, Shen Teng didn't say much, nodded his head, and his heart was much less yearning for this Bazaar star charity night.
The people or places that Huo Ge doesn't like, nine times out of ten, there is something wrong.
was about to leave, but was stopped by Huo Yunting again, "By the way, tell Lao Zhang to prepare and send some money to the children in the poor mountainous areas in a few days, and I will allocate it to him from the account." ”
"Brother Huo, are you preparing a speech?"
"Let him prepare to leave for the mountains."
Looking at Shen Teng's blank expression, Huo Yunting sighed, "I said let him send the money, in cash." ”
"That's, that's not, and Ci-"
"It's like a middleman, the goose has plucked its feathers, but I can't believe it."
Shen Teng left in a daze, and his perception of his boss went to a new level.
"Wild enough."
Two days later, Liu Yifei came, and almost cried when he saw Huo Yunting.
The days in the ancient town of Chikan were too torturous.
After the two converged, they went to find Hu Ge, and they began to work on the script, and they were facing the kung fu -
"Dididi"
"Dididi"
"Excuse me, I'll answer the phone."
Huo Yunting got up and went outside, and when he looked at the electric man, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, this is a rare guest among rare guests.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Huo."
"Long time no see, doctor."
The caller was none other than Tom Cruise's psychiatrist, who hadn't been in touch since Shadow became paralyzed in his dream.
Suddenly called today, could it be that there is something new about his disease?
Before Huo Yunting could speak, the doctor asked, "Has Mr. Huo heard of a British director?" Christopher Nolan. ”
Huo Yunting thought for a while, "Shoot Batman." ”
"That's right, Mr. Nolan wants to meet you."
Now Huo Yunting is puzzled, what is the matter with this great director looking for him? The two of them can't beat each other.
After careful questioning, I found that the cause of this matter was still in his condition.
Huo Yunting told the doctor that it was just a script for him, and he also hoped that the doctor would discuss more with others to inspire him, so the doctor told him a friend.
And his friend happens to be one of the professional teams that Nolan hired for his new film.
Nolan's film in the pipeline is called "Inception".
Huo Yunting rubbed his chin, "When will this Inception be turned on?" ”
"It's probably July or August, I'm not in the crew's hiring team, and I don't know much about some of the details."
Speaking of which, Huo Yunting understood everything.
"It's for fear of creative crashes."
The doctor on the other end of the phone sighed, "Not only that, because when the script first came out, some people thought that the script was borrowed from a Japanese anime called Red Hot Chili Peppers." So Mr. Nolan is a little sensitive to this kind of thing. ”
Huo Yunting tapped his fingertips on the table, "It's understandable, when will he come?" ”
"Mr. Nolan means that I want you to go to England to find him."
"Then let him go."
The doctor hesitated for a moment, obviously not expecting Huo Yunting to save face at all, "Mr. Huo, the reason why Mr. Nolan wants to invite you to the UK is because he really can't get away-"
"Then let him roll a little farther."
He was extremely unhappy in his heart, who asked for someone to do something, and let himself go to England to find him, this guy has a big face.
Does he himself not have a mobile phone or does he not know how to use electronic products, is there sincerity?
"Let him say it himself." Without waiting for the doctor to speak again, Huo Yunting hung up the phone and continued to talk.
After less than half an hour, an unfamiliar transnational call came into Huo Yunting's mobile phone.
"Hello, Mr. Hohu, I'm Christopher Nolan."
Nolan made a long story short, and briefly explained the reason for inviting Huo Yunting to the UK, he was preparing the crew, and there were some detailed questions that were inconvenient to explain, so he really couldn't get away.
"Mr. Huo, I apologize to you for my previous recklessness. I would love to invite you to the UK for a detailed discussion, and I am willing to cover all the costs of your journey. ”
It's pretty much the same.
But he agreed, and there are others who may not be able to agree.
"Mr. Nolan, you go find someone, you convince him, and I'll go to England."
Subsequently, Huo Yunting left Wang Jiawei's mobile phone number.
