Chapter 494: Returning to China
Boss Zhang carefully inspected the production and distribution of "The Hunger Games 2", "Human Eradication Project" and "Dallas Buyers Club" and "Superbody" in the United States.
"The Hunger Games 2" was only completed in December last year, and it is still in post-production at special effects companies around the world, but it has been set to hit the big screen on November 21 this year.
"Human Eradication Project" and "Superbody" are aimed at this year's North American summer file, but the former is in June and the latter is in May.
This summer, Liu Yifei will be very busy, in addition to "Super Body", "Pacific Rim" will be in July.
The behind-the-scenes dispute of "Pacific Rim" made Liu Yifei very uneasy about this film.
When "Pacific Rim" was preparing for filming, Thomas Toole, the owner of Legendary Pictures, planned to make two films, one is that Legendary Pictures does not have a decent IP in his hand except for Godzilla's monster universe, and Legend is very eager to create another mecha monster IP to carry the box office; The second is that Legendary Pictures is about to break up with Warner, and Thomas Toole is trying to prove that he can run a blockbuster film on his own without Warner.
As the heroine, Liu Yifei is of course happy to see "Pacific Rim" make two films, but Thomas Toole and director Toro have a very big disagreement on the sequel.
Toro hopes to gather the original cast to shoot a sequel story after "Pacific Rim"; But Thomas Toole wanted Toro to make a prequel to Pacific Rim.
It is conceivable that Liu Yifei will definitely support the director, and she can continue to play the heroine by following the story of the first part, if she listens to Thomas, she will have no play.
Neither the management nor the director team can convince anyone, and now the contradiction has not broken out, and the two sides are still pulling.
In China, after her husband went on a business trip, Liu Yifei devoted herself more fully to work.
Liu Yifei and Xue Xiaolu are going very well, "Miss Bai" has been confirmed to be filmed in Hebei Province, and they are already communicating with local government departments about the venue.
In terms of actor selection, in addition to Liu Yifei who was scheduled early to play the heroine Bai Xiaoting, Sun Li who played the evil actress Zhou Lina, Zhou Lina's boyfriend, Zheng Mingshan, who is also the perpetrator, Liu Yifei sincerely invited Qin Hao, the little prince of the literary film, to play.
Liu Yifei and Sun Li are both newcomers to literary films, and they need an experienced actor on the scene.
For Liu Yifei's invitation, Qin Hao was very surprised.
When meeting Liu Yifei and Xue Xiaolu in a café in Beijing, Qin Hao's joy was overflowing: "I really didn't expect it." ”
Xue Xiaolu asked him, "What didn't you expect?" ”
"My agent called me the day before yesterday," Qin Hao learned from his agent, "said that Director Xue Xiaolu and Liu Yifei want to ask you to act, will you go?"
"When I heard it, I thought to myself, I guess it's not a liar." Qin Hao said.
Liu Xue and the others both smiled: "We can't look for you yet?" ”
Qin Hao continued: "My agent said that he was not a liar, and Director Xiaolu's assistant called him. I just believe that it is not a scam, so I will come here today. ”
Qin Hao asked the estimated start time before reading the script, and wanted to match the schedule first, if the schedule was not right, then he would have to spend a lot of effort to adjust it later.
Xue Xiaolu said: "We expect to start shooting in Hebei Province in mid-November, shoot for two months, and finish in January." ”
Qin Hao's agent corrected the schedule and said, "Fortunately, we were free at that time." ”
"What's next?" Qin Hao can't remember the events of the next half a year.
His agent said to Liu Yifei and Xue Xiaolu: "Later, we promised Wang Xiaoshuai to direct a film, saying that it would be filmed until November, and we will strive for adjustments with that side, which should not delay your play." ”
Xue Xiaolu showed a lot of generosity: "Actually, it's nothing to join the group a day or two late, we can shoot other scenes first." ”
There is no problem with the schedule, and there will be a lot of talk about it later.
Qin Hao took the script back and said that he would talk about it in detail after reading the script.
As for the titular male number one in the film, Bai Xiaoting's police boyfriend Wang Chuan, it was handed over to Pan Yueming.
Chen Zhixi stuffed in, she had been Pan Yueming's agent for a period of time before.
Chen Zhixi's meaning is very clear, hoping that Pan Yueming can return to the public eye with the traffic of Liu Yifei and Sun Li.
Liu Yifei didn't think that Pan Yueming was now bad and worried that he would drag down the movie, but sympathized with him.
"What's this, I'm not taboo about this." Liu Yifei didn't care, "I didn't commit adultery, I just got divorced, and the drama is not filmed yet?" ”
Chen Zhixi said a lot of good things about Pan Yueming in front of Liu Yifei, and naturally she also said a lot of bad things about Dong Jie, but Liu Yifei didn't believe it.
She has her own judgment on this matter, the two are just divorced, and Liu Yifei doesn't believe a word of gambling and domestic violence on the Internet.
Don't forget, she herself came all the way through the gossip.
Chen Zhixi recommended Pan Yueming to her, and she was really willing to be a favor to help him.
Not to mention that Pan Yueming only received a symbolic salary of 100,000 yuan for acting in "Miss Bai", why didn't Liu Yifei use it.
…………
In the later stage of the filming of "Little Times", Yang Mi's film contract was broken, and there was a vacuum in her career, which made her panic very much.
During the Chinese New Year, including more than a month after the New Year, she has not been idle, either in the bureau or on the way to the bureau, working very hard to fight for resources for herself.
is also considered to be worth the effort, and she really knocked on the door.
Yang Mi's studio is hung under the banner of Huanrui, and it is not in vain that she has worked hard, Huanrui gave her a play called "Micro Times", and let her be a producer for good marketing.
The producer is not so easy to be, Huanrui asked her to do some dirty work, and promised her that when the filming of "Micro Times" is finished, she will also hand over the later "Ancient Sword and Strange Tan" to her.
Yang Mi can't help it, compared to the torment of waiting for no filming, she would rather help Huanrui do some dirty work.
has become a producer and is busier at work, so Yang Mi did not attend the premiere of her best friend Tang Yan's new movie "BJ Meets Seattle", and only reposted a trailer video of "North West" on Weibo.
In fact, it's okay if Yang Mi doesn't go, the industry knows that Yang Mi once competed with Tang Yan for the role of Wen Jiajia, and Yang Mi didn't look good in front of reporters when she went to the premiere.
Liu Yifei went.
At the premiere, Tang Yan said that it was very difficult for pregnant women to act, and he also went to the obstetrics department to observe the walking, sitting and lying of pregnant women.
When she was asked when she would marry Luo Jin, Tang Yan smiled and said that she was not in such a hurry.
The reporter didn't know that Luo Jin had proposed to her.
Liu Yifei was a good guest and actively cheered for "North West".
When she went home in the evening, Liu Yifei got out of the car and asked the driver and assistant to go back and go up alone.
As soon as I turned on the light, I saw my husband standing in the middle of the living room with a bouquet of flowers.
"Ouch, you're scared me to death." Liu Yifei didn't feel romantic, "Why didn't you say it in advance when you came back." ”
"I'm going to surprise you." Zhang Yuanjun handed the flowers to his wife.
"I'm not happy, but I'm scared enough." Liu Yifei took the flower, and before she had time to praise the beauty of the flower, she liked it very much, and was picked up by Zhang Yuanjun.
"Ah, what are you doing!" The hand can be wrapped around Zhang Yuanjun's neck.
"I've been in the United States for more than half a month, and you haven't had a single phone call, you don't care about me so much, I'm going to punish you!"
"How to punish it." Liu Yifei's eyes were full of shyness that wanted to refuse and welcome.
"I'm going to spank you hard!"
"Take a shower first."
"I'll have to wash it later, trouble." (End of chapter)
