In September, "The Matrix" was also released in other regions one after another, slowly pushing the box office past $1.2 billion, successfully surpassing the global box office of "Batman: Time to War" and becoming the No. 1 domestic film at the global box office.After this threshold, the box office decline rate of "The Matrix" is visible to the naked eye, and it is gradually approaching the next draw.Penguin Video launched "The Matrix", which exceeded 5 million on-demand in 24 hours, the data is quite good, and the film has also brought a steady stream of revenue to Penguin Pictures and Light Pictures.And when Li He was busy preparing for "Top Gun", he received an invitation from the national teacher and invited him to participate in the test screening of the Matrix, and Li He took Tang Qianqian to go happily."
How?
Is the movie okay?
”The national teacher asked.There is no doubt about the level of the national teacher, but there were many constraints when this movie was filmed, and the national teacher could not do anything but do his best.Fortunately, in terms of special effects, because it was taken over by Industrial Light and Magic, it is much better than in the previous life.Li He said honestly: "To be honest, if it were me, such a film would give a maximum of five points." ”The national teacher nodded, and said helplessly: "Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven!"
I'm old too, and it's now for you young people. ”Li He comforted: "You haven't reached the time of retirement yet, don't say such frustration, although it is impossible for me to watch this movie be a big hit, it is still no problem to recover the cost and even make a small profit." ”"I hope so, I hope so!"
The national teacher stalled his hands.Although "The Great Wall" has a lot of problems, it is still qualified as a commercial film, except for the heroine Da Tiantian.As a vase, Da Tiantian did not give full play to the advantages of the vase at all.Li He really didn't get Da Tiantian's beauty, except for the online drama "Sten", but now there is no trace of the online drama, and Da Tiantian has not surrendered to star in the online drama.Speaking of online dramas, "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" directed by Five Hundred has been completed, and Five Hundred, as the director of the online drama "Seven Deadly Sins", also has a certain status in the hearts of many drama fans, and "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" has also been expected by many people.And after Milk Pan turned over with the online drama "Seven Deadly Sins", his popularity gradually returned, and many Milk Pan fans are also looking forward to this drama.Penguin Video released the trailer of "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night", with Milk Pan playing two roles, and several of the explosive acting clips made fans look forward to it.The series is expected to meet viewers in November and is still in intense post-production.At the same time, Li He's "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Essence of the Ancient City" was officially established, which was produced by Noon Sunshine in the previous life, this ghost blowing lantern was produced by Penguin Pictures, and the newcomer director Chen Meizhou was specially used.That's right, it was Li He's classmate Chen Meizhou, under the suggestion of 500, Penguin Pictures considered it several times, and finally he served as the director.After watching the test screening of "The Great Wall", Li He and Tang Qianqian returned to the studio, and they were still talking about this movie on the way.Tang Qianqian feels that her senses are good, and the integration of Chinese and Western elements is very good, especially Matt Damon, who is worthy of being a Hollywood superstar, and there is no problem with handling the role, but she feels that Da Tiantian is a bit of a play."
Da Tiantian is so bad, how can she still be the female number one?"
Tang Qianqian was very puzzled.Li He said with a smile: "Da Tiantian's background is extraordinary, and the national teacher has to sell face." ”Da Tiantian's identity background has always been a mystery, I only know that behind her background, she has been clean and self-conscious for so many years, and I haven't heard of anyone who wants to embarrass her."
It's good that you didn't take on this project at the beginning, otherwise your reputation would have collapsed."
Tang Qianqian rejoiced.In fact, Tang Qianqian is exaggerating, if the movie "The Great Wall" is made by Li He, it can be announced that this is the Waterloo of Li He's directorial career.But it can be said to be a success when it is made by other directors, and it is a very successful kind.In fact, when Li He took over this film, he would definitely not let the American producer ride on his head, Li He will ask to revise the script and re-cast, the first thing is to remove Da Tiantian and replace it with the international chapter or Li Binbin, as well as Zhang Jingchu, who has worked with Li He.But no, Li He gave this opportunity to the national teacher, and Ma Dumeng also gave the opportunity of the actor to the younger brother of his good friend.Back in the studio, Li He held various meetings non-stop, discussing casting with the director team, budget, props, photography, costumes, etc......
The success of every film is inseparable from the perfect preparation in the early stage, and the better the preparation of the preliminary work, the easier the work of film shooting.Li He's completion of each movie with quality and quantity has a lot to do with this.Then Li He had to choose a suitable location and inspect a certain base in Gansu as a filming location for the flight school.Then he took a certain destroyer of the Navy to the South China Sea to check, floated at sea for two days, and chose several addresses.The Navy's Propaganda and Culture Center specially sent Tang Zuogang over as a military representative, and in line with the idea of making the best use of people, Li He directly asked Colonel Tang Zuogang to be the producer, responsible for communicating with the military.Then there was Li He's most excessive request, using an aircraft carrier to shoot, when discussing what aircraft carrier to use, Colonel Tang Zuogang asked Li He: "Do you want to use the 001 aircraft carrier?"
Or the 003 aircraft carrier?
”Li He asked, "What's the difference between these two?"
”"001 is a sliding aircraft carrier, and 003 is an electromagnetic catapult aircraft carrier."
Tang Zuogang said.Li He was stunned: "We already have an electromagnetic catapult aircraft carrier?"
”"Of course there is, but it is still in the sea trial stage and has not been made public."
Tang Zuogang explained.Could it be that my rebirth caused the butterfly effect?
Li He was puzzled, but he didn't want to dwell on this."
If there's 003, why do you need 001, that's it."
Li He decided."
Okay, I'll get in touch, we'll go up and have a look then, but be careful, everything must be kept secret."
Tang Zuogang said."
I understand this......"
"No, you don't understand, everyone in the crew who shoots on the aircraft carrier must sign a confidentiality agreement."
Tang Zuogang's expression was very serious."
Ugh!
What if I leak it?
Will you shoot me?
”"No, it's just that I'll spend the rest of my life in a military prison......" ............
The news of DreamWorks' new work has spread, but the project is kept secret throughout the whole process, and it is only known that it is a military action theme.When the news broke, interested actors took action one after another, inquiring about the specific news of the project, so as to fight for a role for themselves.In fact, Li He is also having a headache for the role, in 1985, the 24-year-old Tom Brother was in his prime, and became a public lover in the United States with "Top Gun".And after a time and space, who can challenge Tom's classic role?
This is a problem.The heroine Li He has already thought about it, relying on her best friend's strategy to get on the top of the big power, and she is also Li He's idol, Li He doesn't want her idol to continue like this, so give her a chance.Da Mi Mi has a lot of sunspots, but Li He wants to prove to his idol that Da Mi Mi is really innocent.......
