172 Ride, Progress

With the explosion of "Latent", Lu Ping'an's fame in Hollywood and China has soared.

And then more people want to hook up with him.

All kinds of phone calls and text messages came to him, and if there were no conditions, he would make an appointment about his schedule after returning to China, and if there were conditions, he would directly ask if he could come to Lao Mei to visit the class.

The people in the mobile phone are far and near, and every time his status is promoted, Lu Ping'an is no longer surprised by this, and then refuses everything he can.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about, and there's nothing to worry about.

The rise in status, and the rise in Hollywood's status, is particularly advantageous in handling domestic relations.

So at this time, it doesn't matter if you say yes or not.

It doesn't matter if you reply or not.

So even if it was rejected, everyone was happy.

At least Lu Ping'an replied.

For them, that's the face!

Of course, not everyone will be rejected by Lu Ping'an.

If Yan Danchen and Zeng Li came over, he would definitely be willing, provided that they came separately.

However, they are very sensible and do not want to cause trouble.

Liu Qianqian also said that she wanted to come and see, but Lu Ping'an did not refuse, because he came with Zhang Songwen on Monday.

"Brother Ping'an!"

On the Los Angeles set, after the crew finally rested temporarily, Liu Qianqian's soft and glutinous voice sounded.

"Let's go, I'll show you around the set."

Lu Ping'an smiled and beckoned, Liu Qianqian happily followed, Zhang Songwen and others also followed, and Liu Xiaoli followed behind without accident, in a happy mood.

This time, she and Liu Qianqian came to visit the class, naturally with the intention of getting closer to Lu Ping'an.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about.

After all, Lu Ping'an is now the only director in China who has gained a firm foothold in Hollywood.

is not only the director, but after the explosion of "Latent", Lu Ping'an also has the right to participate in investing in Hollywood projects.

Looking at the country, and even looking at the Chinese circle, this is the only one.

Now who in the domestic industry doesn't want to get closer to him?

Therefore, Liu Qianqian, who originally had a good relationship with Lu Ping'an, could naturally get close to the water and get the moon first.

Let's not say what opportunities we can get from this, but at least we need to maintain that relationship.

So after "Fairy Sword 1" was completed a few days ago, Liu Xiaoli asked Liu Qianqian to go back to the United States for vacation as soon as possible.

As a Chinese-American, isn't it normal to go back to the United States to rest for a while after work?

When I went back to the United States, I stopped by to visit my acquaintances in Los Angeles, which was naturally more normal.

Of course, Liu Xiaoli would also be worried that Lu Ping'an would be disgusted with her obvious snobbery, so she asked in advance before she came, saying that if it was really inconvenient, forget it.

After all, there are some things that can't be overdone.

Fortunately, the situation is not as bad as she thought, and the relationship between Lu Ping'an and Liu Qianqian is still very good, much closer than ordinary people.

This made Liu Xiaoli very comfortable.

She felt that she hadn't talked to Lu Ping'an about resources for more than two years, and it couldn't have been more sensible.

"Brother Ping'an, such a big set, it has to cost a lot of money, right?"

On the set, Liu Qianqian looked at the somewhat scary "Gotham City" in front of her and sighed.

"yes, it cost nearly $10 million."

Lu Ping'an introduced.

Now they are on the set of "Gotham City Model".

80% of the scenes in Gotham City in "Batman 1" will be filmed here.

The set is set in a huge hangar.

The hangar is 230 meters long and 50 meters high.

It's big, but it's a few meters smaller than the hangar that the original Nolan found is several meters long.

No way, the original London Cardington hangar can't be rented, and it's cheap here.

In fact, the cheapest is still set in China, but this kind of set is not just about the cost.

Consideration must be given to future sustainable earnings.

Lao Mei is the base camp of Batman and the base camp of Batman fans.

In the future, the studio will be open for a fee, and it will also be used as a filming base for other related films.

There's a business model for this in Hollywood.

If it is placed in China, although the construction cost can be reduced, the equipment cost is not low, and the follow-up benefits will be far less than here.

Of course, it's okay if you really don't make much profit, and it doesn't cost much anyway.

"It's spectacular!"

Liu Qianqian sighed again, her expression shocked.

For this expression, Lu Ping'an was also surprised.

Because that's how almost everybody comes in and comes to see it.

After all, a city was born out of thin air.

The shady street corners of the slums, with all kinds of pipes and wires and airtight walls, are filthy and dilapidated at a glance, making people feel dark and dangerous.

Scaled down are also railroad tracks, high-rise buildings, underground parking lots, etc.

These are future scenes for crashes, explosions, falling rails, etc.

When you are in it, you just feel like Ultraman who is one size smaller, which is very magical.

After walking around, everyone also stared at the Batchariot like those fans.

"It's so handsome, this is a tank, there's this car, and you're afraid of bumping into it in BJ City in the future?" Monday was the first to marvel.

Lu Ping'an asked with a smile: "Do you want to sit and take you for a ride." ”

Zhou Yiwei: "Okay! ”

Lu Ping'an asked again: "Where is Sissi?" ”

"May I?"

"Of course, ladies come first, you come first."

Lu Ping'an said and opened the driver's door of car No. 1.

Car No. 1 is the only Batmobile with a co-driver, so it won't let Liu Qianqian sit on her lap.

Liu Qianqian sat in with excitement on her face, and then with the roar of the engine, the car began to rush forward.

Then, more than 100 meters later, the car turned back to the same place.

Lu Ping'an: "Okay, the ride is over." ”

Liu Qianqian collapsed: "This is the end?" I thought I was going to go out on the street. ”

"I don't want to go to jail."

Lu Ping'an got out of the car with a smile, Liu Qianqian's face was full of regret, but Lu Ping'an's next sentence made her happy instantly.

"You're the first non-crew member to ride in this car, and the first girl I've ever used in this car, so just steal the fun."

After saying this, Liu Xiaoli in the back smiled first, very happy.

After a brief chat with Ning Hao and several teachers from Nortel, Liu Qianqian and the Chinese people she knew in the crew chatted briefly, and sat back quietly to watch the crew filming.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the day's shooting ended.

After Lu Ping'an finished the finishing work as usual, he beckoned Wu Jing and Liu Qianqian and others to go to the cinema together.

Today is the day when the little brother Wen Ziren's movie "Dead Silence" is released, Lu Ping'an has to go to see the scene, and let everyone relax and relax by the way.

It's the end of May, and Batman's progress is close to 70%, which can be described as fast.

In a few days, all the scenes of Lao Mei can be over, and then move to China and London.

After working for more than three months, going to the cinema to watch a Chinese version of the movie is even a change of entertainment, and there is no need to always be a big name at night.

When he arrived at the theater, Wen Ziren was already there, and he looked a little nervous.

Seeing the arrival of Lu Ping'an and his party, Wen Ziren immediately found the backbone.

"Lu, you're here."

"What's wrong Xiao Wen, I'm very nervous."

"yes, I've been to the toilet three times in just an hour."

"Be confident, don't be nervous."

Lu Ping'an couldn't say anything, this was a normal physiological reaction, and he had a similar feeling when he first experienced the release of his movie, but it was very small.

As he spoke, Wen Ziren introduced the people around him.

"This is my parents, this is my good friend Revor"

Lu Ping'an greeted everyone kindly, Wen Ziren's parents spoke Chinese well, and their mother tongue was not forgotten.

Revor is a white man, that is, the "doctor" and screenwriter of the original "Chainsaw 1", and the screenwriter of "Dead Silence" is also him, a good young man.

After Lu Ping'an encouraged him, everyone entered the theater.

With the arrival of 6 o'clock, the premiere began.

The next movie did not unexpectedly scare the crowd in the theater.

Everyone finally realized that there is still a big difference between the cinema in Lao Mei and China.

At least the terrifying appearance of cutting out the tongue will definitely not be seen in domestic theaters.

This also makes it seem that a group of people can't eat much at dinner time after watching the movie.

"I can't eat, that's just right, eat less, and go to the gym to exercise together in a while."

Lu Ping'an smiled and suggested, "Jogging is good for your physical and mental health. ”

Monday was the first to say yes.

Zhang Songwen also said that exercising to make the body tired will help reverse jet lag.

Ning Hao was also the first to refute: "What's good, he's going to go to fitness?" He's there to show off his identity as a torchbearer! ”

Everyone suddenly realized, and began to shout in envy to make way for a safe dinner.

Lu Ping'an directly agreed: "Then let's go, go to the Chinese restaurant next to you to eat beef tongue!" ”

"Boom" × N
