Chapter 365: The Finale and "The Tonight Show"
At 3 p.m. on September 20, 2006, a small villa in Los Angeles was surrounded by a large group of people, including Asians, whites, and black brothers.
Everyone gathered here to prepare for the final scene of "Hurricane Rescue".
The plot is that the male protagonist takes his daughter to meet a female singer he has protected, and fulfills his daughter's dream of being a singer.
He was poor and had no time, not as good as his ex-wife's current husband.
As a result, he not only saved his daughter, but also helped her find a way to learn to sing, which can be said to be compared to his ex-wife's current one.
It's also a little refreshing.
This scene is not difficult, it should only take half an hour to complete.
After filming, they were finished.
At this time, Li Shengyao sat behind the director's monitor, quietly watching the field workers and actors prepare.
Amanda wore short sleeves and jeans, looking youthful and beautiful.
She looked a little cold, but she was actually an outgoing girl, and her laughter filled the whole set.
"Hey!"
Amanda brought a glass of orange juice, "This is for you." ”
Li Shengyao took the orange juice and took a sip, which was sweet and fresh.
He looked at Amanda, a little reluctant.
Filming "Hurricane Rescue", he actually learned a lot, especially the filming of action scenes.
The action directors of the family class taught Lee Shengyao a lot of knowledge.
If it weren't for the cost pressure, Lee Shengyao would really be like filming for a while and learning more about action movies.
Now it seems that there is no way out, and it is time to finish the film.
After the finale, they will participate in the famous "Tonight Show" in the evening, and then return to China tomorrow.
Soon after, the field workers and actors were prepared and officially filmed, and Cheng Long, Amanda, and the group performance as a female singer were all successfully filmed.
In the cheers of the actors and field workers, "Hurricane Rescue" was officially completed.
The beautiful country is not so exquisite, there is no finale banquet, Li Shengyao announced the end of filming, and then the actors went back to their respective homes.
Amanda is all gone, and she has other things to do.
According to the agreement, she will go to Huaxia next month for dubbing, except for Amanda, no one else has many appearances, and there is no need to go to Huaxia for dubbing, Li Shengyao can find someone to dub.
……
Four hours later, Li Shengyao and Cheng Long came to the recording site of "The Tonight Show".
"The Tonight Show" is NBC's ace talk show and the most watched talk show in Pretty Country.
Almost all beautiful national stars, whether it is entertainment, sports, or politics, will come to participate in "The Tonight Show".
Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, and Da Yao have all participated in "The Tonight Show".
At this time, the host of "The Tonight Show" is Jay Leno, and after 2014, he will be replaced by Jamie Fallon.
Both of these are actors, hosts, and both are funny and humorous, and they are good at imitation.
That is, Cheng Long's face is big enough, and if he is replaced by Li Shengyao, he is currently not qualified to be on "Tonight's Show".
Jay Leno was fifty-six years old at this time, with gray hair, a chubby face, and a very pronounced double chin.
Soon after, the interview officially began.
Li Shengyao and Cheng Long sat on one side, and Jay Leno sat on the other side.
"Oh, Jackie, who is this, a good Chinese actor?"
"No, he's not an actor, his name is Li Shengyao, and he's a very good director."
Cheng Long went on to talk about Li Shengyao's achievements.
The audience cooperated with the wow, Jay Leno nodded, and then said: "Young man, this is a smart choice, the director is much cooler than the actor."
He then paused, and then asked, "Lee, I read some of your information, Warner and Fox have invited you, why did you refuse?"
Li Shengyao naturally spread his hands, "My own films, I am the boss, if I shoot them, then I am a worker, I don't like this." ”
"Oh, the capitalists won't like your words."
Jay Leno then turned to Cheng Long, and then mainly asked Cheng Long questions.
This is actually normal, after all, Cheng Long is much more famous than Li Shengyao in a beautiful country, although Li Shengyao is more handsome, but the audience obviously prefers to watch Cheng Long.
Li Shengyao listened quietly, and at the end of the interview, Jay Leno finally remembered Li Shengyao again.
"Li, this is an interview with a beautiful country, the hosts are all snobs, if you are not famous, then you will not be able to get more attention, I hope that the next time you come, you will be more famous."
Li Shengyao smiled and nodded, "It's not my loss, it's your loss." ”
Jay Leno's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Oh, why? ”
"I'll be famous in the future, but I won't necessarily have time to come to your show."
The audience laughed cooperatively, and Jay Leno clapped his hands, "Man, you're an interesting person." ”
He continued: "When will your film be released? I will definitely support it when the time comes. ”
Regarding the release time of the movie, Li Shengyao has long discussed it with Cheng Long and Jiang Zhiqiang.
Judging from the post-production of "Hurricane Rescue", it should take two months, which means that the screening time is after December.
Either December or January.
There are no Chinese New Year stalls in Europe and the United States, and they generally believe that the summer vacation is a time when the box office income of movies is higher, and most blockbusters will be broadcast in the summer.
Of course, that doesn't mean that the Chinese New Year isn't important.
In fact, the competition in Europe and the United States is fierce every year.
At present, it is known that the movies that will be released during the Chinese New Year are "Wonderful Night at the Museum", "Arthur and His Mini Kingdom", "Dragon Knight", "Apocalypse", "Love Holiday", "Happy Feet" and so on.
Among them, "Wonderful Night at the Museum", "Arthur and His Mini Kingdom", and "Dragon Knight" premiered on December 22nd.
"Apocalypse", "Love Holiday", "Happy Feet" premiered on December 6th.
"Apocalypse" is a blockbuster film directed by Mel Gibson, and if Lee Shengyao remembers correctly, "Wonderful Night at the Museum" in his previous life would have been a big winner, earning $600 million at the global box office.
Cheng Long and Jiang Zhiqiang are not optimistic about "Wonderful Night at the Museum", they believe that "Revelation" is a greater threat.
The idea was to release it at the end of December, so that they could avoid "Apocalypse" and "The City Full of Golden Armor".
"The City Full of Golden Armor" has been finalized and will be released on December 14.
However, Li Shengyao knew that "Revelation" finally hit the street, since he was focusing on the global box office, he gave priority to the beautiful country, and he took a lot of effort to persuade Cheng Long and Jiang Zhiqiang to set the file on December 6 to be released together with "Revelation" and "Love Holiday".
"If all goes well, we'll premiere on December 6th."
Jay Leno nodded, "Okay, hopefully it's over twenty-five million this time, right, Jackie." ”
"Around the World in 80 Days" only grossed 25 million US dollars in beautiful countries.
Cheng Long smiled bitterly and nodded, "Yes, I hope." ”
