It's still a harsh winter in Beijing, but it's warm and humid in Los Angeles, with lush flowers, plants and trees. When Yang Lin stepped into the door of "Dream Factory", Kidd had already greeted him, waving a stack of reports in his hand and a smile on his face that could melt ice and snow. "Hi, my great boss, do you know? You are the general I follow all my life and the faith I believe in all my life. Following you, we will conquer the entire world and trample the entire universe under our feet! Guys, you said, yes No?" Kidd was very excited, not only himself, but also encouraging his employees. "Yes! Yes! Yes! Great boss, you are the king of Hollywood!" All the employees shouted slogans in unison, and it looked like they had rehearsed in advance. The thunderous applause and loud shouts startled Du Qingshan and Li Kaijun who had just walked in behind Yang Lin. Yang Lin raised his hand: "I didn't say anything, the bonus will be doubled!" "Ouch -" This is the real benefit, visible and tangible. Walking into the office, Kidd turned around and closed the door. Yang Lin sat on the boss's chair, moved his neck, and his joints made a "crack" sound. Relaxing his whole body, lazily crossing his legs, and taking another sip of water, Yang Lin asked: "It looks like the box office is good?" Kidd nodded, put a large push of information in his hand in front of Yang Lin, with a look on his face. He couldn't hide his pride: "It's not just good? Do you know that in Hollywood now, your name is already a guarantee of box office. "The Ghost Story", "Die Hard", "Grand Central Station", Until now, "The Pursuit of Happiness", whether it's a big-budget movie or a small-budget movie, is a classic among classics. Yang Lin laughed and waved his hand: "Don't talk about that. Let¡¯s talk about the situation of ¡°The Pursuit of Happiness.¡± Kidd picked up two pieces from the pile of information and said, ¡°The current box office has reached 130 million.¡± When "The Pursuit of Happiness" was first released, the box office was not very good. Although the film placement rate is very high. But because the lead actor in this movie is an Asian, the audience didn't buy it very much. In the eyes of most people, movies starring Asians can only be seen in kung fu movies, and this movie. It's clearly an art film. Thanks to Yang Lin's appeal, the attendance rate remained at 60% during the first run. This result is already quite good for some directors. But who is Yang Lin? Oscar's new Best Director! This attendance rate is obviously not good-looking. But with the publicity of the audience. The film's reputation gradually built up. The attendance rate and box office of "The Pursuit of Happiness" are slowly rising. Like the tide, gentle and gentle. Yet unstoppable. ????????????????????????????Reputation is the most important at any time. And word of mouth. But it is based on the plot of the movie. Only an attractive plot and perfect presentation techniques can win the audience's reputation. Once word-of-mouth is established, the box office will skyrocket and it¡¯s just around the corner. "It's not just the box office, but more importantly the response. Now, almost all the media are singing praises and praising our "The Pursuit of Happiness". It is a film that has not been seen in decades. A good movie. To be honest, I felt a little embarrassed when I watched it. " Kidd handed a few newspapers to Yang Lin, saying he was embarrassed, but the expression on his face was extremely proud. Where is the slightest bit of embarrassment? Sure enough, the reports and comments in the newspapers were full of praise, wishing that this movie would be praised as rare in the sky and nothing on the earth. "There is a song in the film that left a deep impression on me. I watched it several times and memorized the lyrics: 'We know what those mountains represent. We sing praises to those mountains. God, don't touch that mountain. Give me the strength to climb. Please don't touch that stumbling block. Please lead me around it. My burden is really heavy. It seems a little unbearable. But I won't give up. No, because you promised me that we will. Meet at the altar. 'This song, as we see in the movie, there are too many stumbling blocks on our way to happiness. What should we do? The performance of the strong is fearless and brave. , a successful leap. In our lives and work, including our relationships, there are many setbacks. When facing them, one can easily look back, and the other requires hard work to overcome. Choose the former. Those who choose the latter will truly appreciate the beauty and splendor of the rainbow after the rain. After watching the film, I was not only shocked but also deeply moved. Self-blame, what is your life like? What is your attitude towards your work? I will always remember this movie, and I will also remember this director: Yang Lin, thank you for creating a great movie for me. Thank you forever for your work.¡±p; ¡ª¡ª"Chicago Sun", famous film critic: Roger Ebert. Yang Lin was very surprised. He knew this Roger Ebert too well. Roger Ebert is the most famous film critic in the United States. This old guy has a first-class ability to hurt people. He is also the first film critic in the history of the United States to win the Pulitzer Prize. He graduated from the University of Illinois and has written a column for film reviews for the Chicago Sun-Times since 1985. His film reviews have been widely quoted over the years and are printed on the covers of many DVDs as a guide for buyers. There are probably very few film critics who can reach this point. He has become a standard. This guy has almost never said anything good since he wrote his first movie review. This guy who is the most harmful to others actually sang a hymn? This made Yang Lin feel a sense of disobedience for no reason. "There are no beautiful actors, no fancy editing, and no wonderful soundtrack in the moviebut there is a good story, a good story that made me sit in the cinema, watch it and be moved by it. Inspirational story , probably all follow this pattern: embarrassing situation, difficult struggle, endless misfortunes, and then a glimmer of opportunity and finally a dawn. There is no point in demanding that such a film be new and surprising, because we will. People who struggle feel happy when they finally succeed, precisely because it is difficult for us to persevere. A story that is not exciting, but touching enough, and a director who is not old, but understands the world. It¡¯s not fancy, but it¡¯s a classic movie. I can only say that I was moved.¡± ¡ª¡ªLos Angeles Times Yang Lin¡¯s favorite thing is to read movie reviews, whether they are praising or criticizing; whether they are criticizing him or not. Talk about others. He has always believed that through film reviews, we can see the direction of the film market, the overall situation of the film environment, and even the future development of the entire film industry. Film critics are also human beings. They have to eat and work. Whether they are praising or criticizing, they must grasp the hearts of the audience and gain resonance. Otherwise, who would pay to buy newspapers? It can be said that these people are the first line of contact with the audience. Perhaps due to various factors, what they express may not be their true perceptions and opinions, but no matter how they are modified, you can always find some clues in their words. Movies are a kind of consumption. If they cannot adapt to the market, follow the trend and please the audience, then they will not be recognized. ¡°But Yang Lin vaguely noticed something different about these film reviews. This caliber is too uniform, right? Yang Lin was watching with gusto, but there was a commotion outside. As soon as Yang Lin frowned, his assistant opened the door. He was sweating profusely and said with some fear: "Boss, I don't know what happened. Your itinerary has been found out by reporters. Now, there are probably dozens of reporters waiting to be interviewed. You have been trying to persuade them for a long time, but to no avail. You see" Yang Lin waved his hand: "Now that you're here, don't drive them away. It won't be a good influence. Let's have a simple meeting in the big conference room. Press conference, "The assistant was relieved and hurried out to inform. Kidd wondered: "I specifically told you to keep your itinerary secret, how could it be leaked?" Since Yang Lin was assassinated in Tahiti, his itinerary has been classified as a first-level secret. In the entire "DreamWorks" film company, only Kidd artists know about it. Yang Lin shook his head, stood up and said, "It's useless. They are in the dark, and we are in the open. It is easy to hide from open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows. We are very passive." Kidd was worried and guilty at the same time: "I'm sorry, boss, It's all my fault" Yang Lin said with a smile: "I told you many times that you are just a catalyst, and they will find me sooner or later. But don't worry, I, your boss, Not everyone can pinch them. Since they are in the dark, I will throw out a bone to lure them out. " Bone?" Kidd was at a loss, but Yang Lin opened the door and walked out with confidence. The large conference room was packed with more than twenty reporters. It was still noisy and noisy at first, but as soon as Yang Lin came in, it suddenly became quiet. As soon as Yang Lin sat down on the podium, a reporter stood up: "Mr. Yang, I am a reporter from the New York Daily News. I want to" Yang Lin waved his hand to interrupt him: "Here today, In order to thank you for your attention, we, DreamWorks Film Company, are holding this press conference. Please listen clearly, it is a press conference. I will not give answers to topics unrelated to this conference. Thank you for your cooperation. The reporters were all in a daze. We were here for an interview. Why did we hold a press conference? Any news to break? This is a bit different from our original intention.Weird Yang Lin smiled coldly at the reporters, praising him? Or digging a hole? Hum hum, no matter what, if I don¡¯t accept the move, how can you do this?
