You Made Me a Superstar - Chapter 403
There is a phenomenon that is quite magical.
“Superman 2” dominated the Chinese film circle in China, almost massacred.
But everyone is amazed by the special effects and handsome male protagonist of “Superman 2”, but there are not many people who really talk about the plot of “Superman 2”.
Does “Superman 2” have a plot?
【Superman falls in love with a human girl while saving the world】
【The human girl fell in love with Superman while holding back Superman】
【The big villain is obviously capable of killing Superman, but he has to force Lai Lai to make up the time, which eventually leads to a comeback].
The core plot can be summed up in three sentences, and even in terms of the selling point and idea of the core plot, it is not as good as the previous work “Superman 1”.
At least “Superman 1” also added some human thinking and the boundaries of good and evil, barely sublimating the theme of the entire movie, making people talk about it on the Internet.
“Superman 2”?
What else can you talk about besides amazing special effects?
Do you want to talk about the acting skills of the actors?
The actors have no acting skills at all. Superman Chris Jeff has the same expression from the end to the end. What kind of acting skills can you see?
The box office of “Infernal Affairs” is failing…
I was overwhelmed by “Superman 2”, not only overwhelmed, but even surpassed by “The Departed”. Among the four films released, the box office was only better than “Our Motherland”. One of the most high-swinging movies at the box office in August…
But the weird thing is that “Infernal Affairs” has completely exploded the first two movies in terms of popularity, ratings, and even follow-up influence on the Internet.
【Sorry, I’m a policeman! 】
【Three years after three years…】
【There is an inner ghost, terminate the transaction! 】
【Why did you put this on to play Infernal Affairs? 】
In 2007, the Internet age has emerged.
In the major Q-dog groups, netizens have added some texts in “Infernal Affairs” with some sand sculpture pictures to spread wildly on the Internet.
Just click on a Q dog group, and you can see the news about “Infernal Affairs” in the Q dog group, and even the three words “Infernal Affairs” have gradually become synonymous with “undercover” in the mouths of netizens, and the fire is in a mess.
And it was released for nearly a week. Not only has the popularity on the Internet and in reality not weakened, but it has become more and more outrageous. Even some netizens who have not seen the “Infernal Affairs” movie have developed strong curiosity about the movie, and pre-sale tickets Once full, it can be called a phenomenon-level hot work.
The box office of “Nightcrawler” climbed step by step.
Under the suppression of “Superman 2”, it has been released for nearly ten days, and still maintains an astonishing figure of 15 million yuan. It is reasonable to say that such a movie is enough to congratulate God.
However……
On the Internet, except for some media crazy embarrassment, and some die-hard fans everywhere to promote the plot in “Night Walker”, the popularity is not comparable to “Infernal Affairs”…
“Is “Infernal Affairs” another movie that is popular and not for sale?”
“There have been movies that are not for sale over the years, but there are really too few movies like “Infernal Affairs” that suddenly halved the box office…”
“It’s a pity…”Infernal Affairs” should be able to become a classic, at least in my opinion, a classic…”
“No, the old American remake of “The Departed” has exploded at the box office. It stands to reason that with such popularity, the box office of “Infernal Affairs” can’t be so low, right?”
“…”
August 19th.
The latest box office of the Huaxia movie circle is out.
“Infernal Affairs” has only 12 million RMB left at the box office.
“Night Walker” has 16 million yuan, while “Superman 2” has a slight decline in the box office, but it still maintains 46 million yuan…
And in the old beauty!
The box office of “The Departed”, a remake of “Infernal Affairs”, actually went from $8 million to $9 million and hit a new high. The headlines of the major movie sectors even vaguely pressed “Superman 2”, which is completely similar to Huaxia. the other way around…
This made netizens a little unbelievable, and there were bursts of heated discussions on the Internet.
………………………………
“Roddy, sorry, I’m going to a plane in California soon!”
“This time is important, Mr. Olson’s approval ratings have slipped in Connecticut, and this is a critical moment. As a supporter of Mr. Olson, and for the future of the company, I can’t stop… I have Betting everything on next year’s election!”
“Mr. Zhou Yang is a very talented director, I believe he can do it, if he can’t, no one in this world can do it, you are also a talented assistant director, I believe you can handle everything well, okay , sorry, I’m on the plane, don’t call me these days, I’ll be very busy…”
Christian is still chatting with Congressman Olson about his “American Dream.”
When Roddy called Christian with a wrinkled expression, he only heard Christian replying a few words.
After replied, Christian hung up the phone without even giving Associate Director Rody any chance to complain.
Roddy never imagined that one day Christian would become so strange and so loathsome…
He stood up and came to the edge of Zhou Yang’s office, seeing the lights in Zhou Yang’s office flickering all the time, after hesitating for a while, he didn’t go in.
Zhou Yang is writing the script.
Since yesterday evening, except for three meals a day and Lazarus, I have been shutting myself in the office to write a book, and I have never even come out.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw Huaxia director Zheng Jun also coming.
“Mr. Zheng Jun, didn’t you follow along to promote “The Departed”?”
“No, Christian doesn’t think I’d fit in the past…”
“Oh, in your hands…”
“Investment signature form, wait for Mr. Zhou to sign it for me…”
“Oh.”
Roddy is quite familiar with Zheng Jun.
This is the culprit of the “Lamb” incident. This guy took the adapted script of “Infernal Affairs” to Christian…
Then……
Christian’s whole person started to go wrong.
At first, I thought he was the Huaxia assistant that Christian found. Later, Christian followed the filming of “The Departed” and directly abandoned “Lamb”.
This is so nonsense!
Of course, Luo Di didn’t have any resentment towards Zheng Jun, but had some inexplicable sympathy in his heart.
Zheng Jun, the unfortunate one, is a tool man.
You see.
The main filming director of “The Departed” is Zheng Jun. Now after the filming is over, Christian doesn’t even carry Zheng Jun for publicity, and even asks Zheng Jun to take an English name. The director of “The Departed” is now hanging The name is the director “Jeff”…
Who is “Jeff”?
There are hundreds of people with this name in Hollywood, okay?
Zheng Jun doesn’t care that his signature is deprived. Many novel authors use pseudonyms, as long as the director’s name is a code name.
Christian’s talent is amazing and his understanding of movies is amazing, but he’s not pure…
In Christian’s eyes, whether it’s Cannes or Oscar, it’s actually serving for the benefit.
The name of Huaxia director is hung in the propaganda of a movie with strong old American politics like “The Departed”, which is very unfavorable, and maybe it will have the opposite effect.
These Zheng Jun understand very well.
He held the investment application form of “American Gangster History” in his hand and held it tightly.
For the share of the movie “The Departed”, he can take no money at all!
For him, this movie is just a springboard. With this springboard, he can gain Zhou Yang’s trust and help, and finally make the movie he wants to make and realize his artistic dream.
This is his purpose!
in the aisle.
Rody said hello to Zheng Jun and left.
He had to keep calming the restless actors.
On the other hand, Zheng Jun was sitting, silently waiting for Zhou Yang’s next dinner.
About two hours later, a blond woman came over with dinner, Zheng Jun stood up immediately and took the dinner.
Zhou Yang will open the door once at mealtime, and when the door is opened, it is his chance.
“Boom!”
“coming……”
The door opened.
Zhou Yang was a little surprised when he saw Zheng Jun, and then lowered his head to see the investment table in Zheng Jun’s hand, and laughed.
“Did the formalities complete?”
“Well, the formalities in the company have been completed, and now we are waiting for your signature.”
“it is good!”
Zhou Yang nodded, looked at Zheng Jun’s nervous appearance, took the application form with a smile, and then signed it.
After Zheng Jun stared at Zhou Yang and signed the word “Zhou Yang”, he felt that his hanging heart was finally released.
After half an hour…
He took the application form tremblingly, almost going crazy, but when he was about to leave, Zhou Yang stopped him.
“You just left?”
“what?”
“Let me have dinner anyway?” Zhou Yang smiled wryly.
“Ah, this, I’m sorry, I’m sorry Mr. Zhou…” Zheng Jun was stunned for a moment, then startled, and quickly lowered his head and handed the fast food to Zhou Yang in fear.
After Zhou Yang took over dinner, he didn’t mean to go into the office, but looked at Zheng Jun up and down.
He looks exactly like himself two years ago.
“Director Zheng…”
“exist!”
“The new script hasn’t been written yet, I may be going back to China soon, and I will write it slowly after returning, here…”
Zheng Jun saw Zhou Yang stop, and then showed a smile: “There happens to be a live crew here, ready-made people, you can shoot first, if necessary, I will let Mr. Roddy assist you…”
“Can I borrow the crew of “The Lamb”?”
“Can!”
“Good job!”
Zheng Jun was taken aback.
Then it became a surprise again!
When he saw Zhou Yang nod his head, he only felt that he was elated, and his whole mind went blank.
At this moment, he could not have imagined that decades later, when he, who has become a world film master, faced the media and recalled this memory, he couldn’t help but burst into tears.
【He is the greatest person in my life】
【From that moment on, I swear, I will follow him for the rest of my life! 】
…………………………
come back to the office.
After writing most of the plot of the script of “Silence of the Lambs”, Zhou Yang stood up, took out his mobile phone, and turned it on.
During this time, his mobile phone has been kept off.
When he turned it on, the phone rang.
“Mr. Zhou, you finally answered the phone!”
“…”
“Mr. Zhou, I suspect that our “Infernal Affairs” was stolen at the box office!”
