    (The title of the film in the first two chapters was wrong, it should be "The Lion") ¡ª¡ª Golden Hammer Film and Television started contacting the company when it filed for bankruptcy last year.  After half a year of bargaining, a preliminary acquisition plan has basically been reached.  ¡ÜThis plan still needs to wait for approval from the local court in the United States.  After returning from the United States, two weeks passed in a flash.  Wang Xu recorded four consecutive episodes of "Running Brothers". During this period, "Westward Journey" grossed 1.93 billion at the box office. The film was originally scheduled to be released in one week, but major domestic film producers have decided to postpone the release of the film.  Wanda Group was the first to announce that it would extend the screening cycle of "Westward Journey" by another half month, and would also edit and screen "Moonlight Box" and "Cinderella" together. Other film companies are also following suit.  Now it is impossible to predict how much box office the film will ultimately achieve. Anyway, it is certain to exceed 2 billion.  In addition, the news that Wang Xu and Zhuang Xiaodie have joined "The Lion" has also been confirmed.  "The Lion" released a cast list: Huo An, Jackie Chan.  Lucas, John Cusack, Tibbs, Adrien Brody, Xiu Qing, Zhuang Xiaodie, Yantou, Wang Xu (special performance), Mouse, Chen He, Yin Po, Cui Siyuan. Other than that, no other details about the film have been announced.  According to the news, even the filming location is kept secret, let alone any launch conference.  On August 7th, Wang Xu and Zhuang Xiaodie quietly arrived at the Dunhuang Gobi Desert in Gansu Province. The most important scenes of "The Lion" will be filmed on this Gobi beach.  The production cost of this film alone is 400 million yuan, plus the post-production publicity expenses, the investment exceeds 500 million yuan.  The filming cost of the two parts of "Westward Journey" was claimed to be 300 million, but in fact it was only a little over 200 million.  So when Wang Xu rushed to the crew, it was like arriving at a big market.  There were nearly a thousand people in sight.  The climate in the desert is relatively hot during the day, and when the wind blows, there will be sand and gravel, so everyone is wearing gauze to cover their mouths and noses.  Wang Xu had already felt in advance that this filming would be very difficult for everyone, so when he saw Jackie Chan sweating, he said: "Brother, I'm afraid everyone will suffer from such a hot weather." Jackie Chan wiped his hands  Khan said: "Yes. It was fine in the morning, but in the afternoon the highest temperature was 50 degrees, which was unbearable at all, so we now try to finish shooting the outdoor scenes in the morning and shoot the indoor scenes in the afternoon." Wang Xu said: "The conditions for filming in the desert are really good  It was very difficult. In March, I was filming in the desert in Yinchuan. The weather was dry and the temperature dropped at night. It was really difficult for us southerners to adapt. "It's not easy to be an actor."  After sighing, he smiled and said: "Yesterday, the box office of "Dahua" reached 1.9 billion, which is really amazing." Wang Xu said modestly: "It's not as amazing as you said, brother. Half of the success factors are that we all rush  It¡¯s a good time for the movie market to prosper. ¡°This is true. Today¡¯s movie market is growing at an annual rate of 30%. The total box office in the first eight months of this year has been the same as last year. It is expected that the domestic box office total this year will reach 30%.  80 billion mark, and the time and space of the earth before Wang Xu traveled through.  The total domestic movie box office in 2014 was 29.6 billion yuan, and the total box office in the North American market was about 65 billion yuan.  This shows the prosperity of movies here.  "Yes, now is the best period for us filmmakers." As he spoke, Jackie Chan led the two of them into a tent, where the other actors were enjoying the cool weather.  "Captain, sister-in-law, you are here." Chen He was very happy to see Wang Xu coming, and got up and came forward to give him a hug.  "How did you get here?" "I came this morning." Then.  Wang Xu met several other actors, especially the two Hollywood movie kings, Cusack and Brody.  "Dave, it's nice to meet you." "Dave, congratulations on your movie "Journey to the West" for selling 1.9 billion." Cusack and Brody, the two Hollywood movie stars, had known the other actors in advance and knew that although Wang Xu was young.  He debuted late, but he is famous in China as a superstar on the same level as Jackie Chan. It is also known that the movie "Westward Journey" starring him is the most popular movie in China today. ? 1.9 billion yuan is equivalent to 300 million U.S. dollars, which is also a dazzling figure in Hollywood. Such an outstanding person is worthy of the two movie stars' goodwill.  Wang Xu also treated each other with courtesy and respected the two of them highly.  "Oh, God, this beautiful lady should be ZiXiaXianzi?" Cusack spoke broken Chinese, so?It's easy to say the four words Zixia Fairy correctly.  Zhuang Xiaodie took off her veil, and her face as beautiful as a flower made the light in the entire tent brighter, immediately making the two foreign movie stars feel amazing.  "It's an honor to meet you, beautiful fairy." Brody, who was a gentleman like Cusack, kissed Zhuang Xiaodie's hand. This is a hand kiss given by the upper class in the West to noble and beautiful women.  If the relationship between the two parties is close, you can also give hugs and kisses.  "Brother Sledgehammer!" At this time, a tall and handsome Korean guy hugged Wang Xu and said hello.  He is Choi Siwon, a member of the Korean pop boy group Super-Junior, and Han Geng was a member of this team before.  "It's been a long time since I saw you. You've grown stronger again." Wang Xu gave Cui Siyuan a slap.  Why do they seem so familiar to each other?  This starts with Andy Lau.  There is a different kind of fate between Cui Siyuan and Andy Lau.  In 2005, he met Andy Lau through the Chinese film "Ink Attack".  At that time, under the high temperature conditions on the set, Choi Siwon wore 9 costumes. He suddenly fainted due to elevated blood pressure and almost fell from a height.  Below him stood a group of extras holding spears, which was very dangerous. Fortunately, Andy Lau who was on the side pulled him out of danger. From then on, the relationship between the two became very good.  Cui Siyuan calls Andy Lau the boss. In the celebrity friend relationship column of his Baidu Encyclopedia, "mentor Andy Lau" is particularly eye-catching.  There is no need to explain the relationship between Wang Xu and Andy Lau. The two met at Brother Hua's birthday party last year, and later met several times on different occasions. They became familiar with each other as soon as they came back.  Wang Xu doesn¡¯t have many foreign friends, including Cui Siyuan and Xiaowu.  Jackie Chan¡¯s "Lion" brings together star artists from China, the United States and South Korea. Of course, it targets not only the domestic market, but also the overseas market.  In the current domestic film industry, only Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Chow Yun-fat, Ang Lee, John Woo and a few other people's films have overseas markets. Don't look at the fact that Wang Xu's current comedy works are invincible and invincible in China, but  The overseas box office performance was a bit miserable.  For example, "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" grossed 1.6 billion at the domestic box office, but in Southeast Asia, the combined box office in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines was less than 50 million; and "Westward Journey" has just been released overseas, and the box office may be  Be more optimistic, but it is a bit difficult to break 100 million.  The main reason for the failure of the overseas box office is that the film is not international enough and foreigners cannot understand it.  Therefore, Wang Xu joined Big Brother's movie with zero pay, and he also wanted to learn from Big Brother's experience in making movies.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
