- This day was destined to be a busy day for business information. Ye Weiyi received a call from Jon Fehrheimer early on.
Jon happily congratulated Fan and told about the surprise that SS was nominated for a nomination. He also said that someone gave him two NBA courtside tickets for tomorrow night's Los Angeles Lakers vs. Houston Rockets home game. He didn't have time to watch it, so he wanted to Give away game tickets.
"Of course I want it. Who doesn't want free tickets?" Ye Wei was very interested. With Yao Ming on the Rockets, it's time to enjoy a leisure life.
Originally, he could just ask his assistant to pick it up, but Jon wanted to hand it over to him. In fact, he just wanted to see him. Anyway, he had nothing planned in the morning and the distance was not far, so he went to the Lions Gate headquarters in Santa Monica by himself to give Jon a face.
At this time, in the bright and spacious CEO office, Qiaoen, who was wearing a suit and blue tie, was standing next to Ye Wei and talking. Ye Wei, who was in a dark red sweatshirt and jeans, was holding a golf club and focused on pushing the indoor putting practice machine on the greenway. little white ball.
"We expect that "Carrie" will be profitable after its overseas distribution, and "Soul Surfer" will find another box of gold. Weige, you hit a double eagle this year."
Jon exclaimed in admiration that Lionsgate has released all its new films this year, all with a production budget of 10 million. "Saw 3" has grossed 80 million at the North American box office. The highest-grossing film this year is SS, which has already grossed 92 million. . viy sits on this throne for the second consecutive year, what about next year?
Seeking the glory of genius and continuing to protect Lions Gate is Jon¡¯s top priority now.
"Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it." Ye Wei gently pushed the club, watched the ball go into the hole, raised the club and turned around, the club almost hit Jon's smiling face. He shrugged: "Be careful, I don't want to ruin your handsome face."
Jon laughed, then sighed: "You know what happened, my boss put a lot of pressure on me. He said, 'Jon, if you lose viy's new project, get out of here. Well. 'Weige, no matter what you make, commercial films, artistic films, experimental films we are here."
"Thanks." Ye Wei put down his golf club and went to the desk, sat down on the luxurious guest chair, took a blank label paper from the table and folded the paper airplane.
"We know that your time is precious, and your ability has been proved enough, so this time the office affairs will be faster and easier." Jon continued, not saying that the budget does not need to make clear how much label paper was spent, The amount of paper towels spent in the meeting refers to the planning book, etc. He exaggeratedly said: "Your planning book only needs this page, Ye Wei's movie. We want to try our best to help you make a good movie."
"Thank you, thank you." Ye Wei folded the paper airplane carefully and raised the wings slightly while saying: "I will give priority to cooperating with Lions Gate for new projects, but I can't guarantee the time. Let me tell you this Secret." He whispered, and Jon was stunned.
He smiled and threw the paper airplane in his hand, "Sometimes you have to chase your dreams."
The paper plane is flying in mid-air and flying very well.
¡¡
Who can we go to watch the football match with tomorrow night?
Because of the Golden Globe nomination list, Ye Wei has become a hot topic in the media again, and Lily does not want to appear with him for the time being. He went to Lev. He really doesn't have many male friends of the same age in his life. Damien and Dolan are in Canada, and they no longer hang out with Timberlake. It's a critical period for his best friends to fight for college.
Lev is actually very busy, but when he heard that he was sitting on the sidelines: "I will take the SAT test tomorrow!"
"It's terrible!" Ye Wei was also very excited, "Man, let's see if we can give him a high-five or something."
"Come on, Brother Wei! You can ask him for dinner."
"No, no, no, I don't want to be friends with him. That would take away the fun of being a fan. He is one of my few sports idols."
With nominations and game tickets, Ye Weizhen was in a happy mood and laughed over and over again, but troubles also followed, and the fight between the two bones came.
Herman and Harvey Weinstein both called, and this list of nominations is almost as good as it gets. We have to make a decision now on how to do public relations next. Public relations expenses are limited, and the friendship of the judges is also limited. However, there are four overlaps on the way to the Olympics: Best Picture, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Adapted Screenplay.
Herman had long said that Mr. Harvey wanted to monopolize it and asked him to intervene. The problem was that Mr. Harvey was such a bad-mouthed bitch. He originally chose to cooperate with the Weinstein brothers out of the desire to find the best for the project. issued. I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse.
Can¡¯t make a choice! Ye Wei simply told both parties: "I have decided not to care about this matter. Whether you fight to the death or work together to make progress, I don't care! At worst, there won't be a single nomination. I am not the one whose reputation is ruined. If you have any progress, please email me , or ask my assistant?Don't bother me normally. "
"Weige, you can't do this!" Herman screamed when he heard this, and expected him to favor Olson.
"Yes, I can." Ye Wei said leisurely, "Brother, you have the power of Paramount, are you still afraid of Mr. Harvey?" He still warned Harvey Weinstein: "Things are at a standstill. It won¡¯t benefit anyone, right? I believe that with your professionalism, you will find a solution that satisfies both parties. Of course, what I hope most is that you can find a way to be nominated at the same time, hahaha.¡±
Mr. Harvey laughed mischievously.
But there was another thing that he had to take care of, about the "future girls."
¡¡
Movie fans all know that "Future Girl" was first named after the sentence "they-are-the-future-of-the-screen." in Ye Wei's blog post in response to doubts. Then the media began to use "future-girl". Let¡¯s call those ten young actresses, as well as others in the viy girl gang, like Nina Dobrev.
There are four Golden Globe nominees from ten people and three movies, with an average age of 15.7 years old. The girls of the future have an extra layer of glittering golden light.
The sensationalized media rushed to report how amazing this was and how shocking it was to Los Angeles. The global media also paid attention. Fans of the movie are in a frenzy on the Internet, and fans of girls like Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart and others have mixed feelings.
Last year¡¯s Oscar ratings were not ideal and have been declining in recent years. The Academy strives to increase public interest in the nomination list.
In September of this year, Laura Zeskin was once again selected as the executive producer (producer of the "Spider-Man" series), aiming to attract the attention of teenagers; this month it was announced that Eileen, who has hosted the Emmy Awards three times, Len DeGeneres serves as host. Ziskin wrote in the Los Angeles Times: "Yes, I believe Ellen's hosting will definitely help the ratings. She is popular with viewers, not a niche performer, and she reaches a huge population."
Obviously, this year's Oscars must capture young and female audiences. Movies such as "The Queen", "The Devil Wears Prada", "Motherhood" and other films have also given opportunities. Streep and Winslet can bring A lot of heat. But Double Bones and Future Girls have created another opportunity for the Oscars. People have long been tired of the old faces, but they are 100% fresh and convincing, especially for teenagers.
It can now be said that at least one of the four Golden Globe-nominated girls can enter the Oscars, and the media has begun a new round of market analysis and list predictions.
At the same time, what the public doesn¡¯t know is that People magazine has quietly launched a long-awaited cover article project about the girls of the future.
"People" likes to make character ranking lists, such as the year's sexiest man from mid-November to early December, this year's 45-year-old George Clooney; like the year's 100 most beautiful people from the end of April to mid-May, this year's champion It is 30-year-old Angelina Jolie.
This time, simply speaking, we will interview the target girls in the form of a party interview, take a series of photos, and then publish them with a title such as "hollywood-s-future-girl-pack". An article like this in "People" with a circulation of over 3.5 million will have a huge impact, both good and bad, may happen.
The so-called actor gangs have been around for a long time, such as the famous rat-pack in the 1950s and 1960s, whose style was characterized by their cynicism; and the brat-pack in the 1980s, which are what many old actors It is a heartache for movie fans and a warning for young actors.
On June 10, 1985, the latest issue of New York magazine was released. The cover is a group of young actors ranging from 17 to 26 years old. The cover article is "hollywood-s-brat-pack" interviewed and written by editor David Bloom. It changed the trend of Hollywood and the lives of many people. destiny.
Before this article came out, brat-pack was the new star actors generally referred to by the media at the time, including the then-year-old Tom Cruise.
Things took a turn when Bloom wanted to do an interview with Emilio Estevez, a 20-year-old rising star. But one night, Estevez invited Bloom to a dinner party in Los Angeles, attended by people who were famous for starring in two phenomenal teen movies, "The Breakfast Club" and "St. Elmo's Fire." of rising star actors.
After the dinner, Bloom changed his mind. He focused the article on the entire group and completed the article "Hollywood's Brats."
The Naughty Gang has eight core members: Estevez, 17-year-old Anthony Michael Hall, 21-year-old Rob Lowe, 22-year-old Andrew McCarthy, 26-year-old Judd Nelson; Molly Ringwald, Demi Moore and Ally Sheedy.
It was the people gathering for dinner. There are also some peripheral minor members: 20-year-old Robert Downey Jr., 19-year-old John Cusack, 25-year-old Sean Penn.?James Spader, Kevin Bacon, Mary Stewart MastersonThe 25-year-old John Harkes was a minor actor in the Naughty Gang movie.
What they have in common is that they were created by the youth films of supernova directors John Hughes and Joe Schumacher, or they have cross-collaborated in other films of this genre.
If that was a positive article, it would have established Estevez and others' leadership status in the Naughty Gang, but it was a negative article. Bloom described them as a group of young, frivolous, unprofessional, arrogant, and completely dependent on themselves. Bad luck.
Before the article was published, they were regarded as talented and promising young people; after it was published, they were regarded as worthless bastards.
Everyone at the dinner felt betrayed by Bloom, and several actors said they noticed Bloom's jealousy of their success that night. Years later this was proven to be the case, and Bloom himself admitted in an interview that he should not have written the article.
But he didn¡¯t say that at the time. It was an earthquake. Public opinion is sometimes terrible. The originally shining urchins have turned into a bunch of street rats. Except for characters like Molly Ringwald, film producers dare not look for them to act in films, especially in films with serious themes. These opportunities have come There are those middle-aged superstars today.
It also led to the transformation of Ringwald and gave actresses such as Julia Roberts the opportunity to rise to the top.
This is a devastating blow to the Naughty Boys. These good friends are noisy, alienated, and no longer cooperate. Estevez became a sinner (he later stopped participating in any Naughty Gang commemorations), and Ally Sheedy later said: "That article destroyed our friendship. I once really felt our emotions, but That guy ruined it."
Many actors who used to compete for the core of the Naughty Gang are rushing to run as far as they can. For example, Meah Winningham, who was included in most lists, said: "The media is just talking nonsense. I haven¡¯t seen them since "The Fire of Elmore."
Many people inside and outside the industry believe that double frustration in life and career was the main reason why several naughty boys fell into alcoholism, drug abuse, drug abuse and other problems in the late 1980s. Without that article, they would have had different lives. Brat Pack is a tragedy, but now in the 21st century, brat-pack is no longer a derogatory term, but represents a generation of teenagers who are cynical, middle-class anxious, and rebellious without a reason.
But youth has passed away, and everything has turned into the dust of history.
Now when we talk about the famous actor gangs in Hollywood, nine out of ten people will talk about the frat-pack of Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Owen Wilson and others.
If it goes ahead, this "People" article will turn the informal Future Girl Gang into a formal one. The six core members who were interviewed and photographed, the four heroines of the four viy girl movies, and the nominated Vikander and Ronan, ranging from 12 to 18 years old, with an average age of 16 years. Secondary members such as Woodley and Symington use lists.
On the bright side, this article will definitely spread all over the world, which will establish their transcendent status in the new generation. No matter how powerful each of them is, the alliance will be extremely powerful and will be talked about by fans. There will be a special kind of favor and respect for them, and they will be more widely recognized by the industry.
¡°And times have changed. It¡¯s no longer the 1980s before the Internet. People¡¯s understanding of celebrities is limited to some information from print media. Nowadays, there is an explosion of information every day. Actors themselves have various social networking sites. Youth movies have also gained their status. What they act in cannot yet be called youth movies. The models of agents and public relations are different.
The risk of bad things has been reduced to a very low level, but just in case, how can we definitely avoid the tragedy of the Naughty Boys happening again?
There is an agent involved in this matter, and Julilee Roberts has already been paying attention to every detail. She is well aware of the terrifying side of this double-edged sword of gangs.
The good side will be very good. Emma does not have a role in the awards season, but she can share the glory with the four nominees and build a joint momentum. For the four nominees, it is also a rare opportunity to build momentum and promote their Olympic potential. People's year-end cover is more effective than how many magazines' "For Your Information" inserts?
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the way, Ye Wei had to be the matchmaker. He didn't really want to take care of it, and he was afraid that if he didn't care, it would end in tragedy, so he should take on the responsibility of a friend.
"Go! I'll go." Liz heard this without even thinking, "If I don't go, will I not be a future girl?"
"No problem." Jennifer was also very neat, "But I don't want a tomboy look, I want something sexy."
"Of course!" Alicia expressed the most joy, "I believe you."
This sentence put a lot of pressure on him. Fortunately, there were precedents to draw lessons from, and it was not difficult to accomplish good things. He and his agent, manager and public relations staff quickly formulated their own plans.beg.
Needless to say, this needs to be a positive article. The title of the article can only be "future-girls" and cannot use pack. "Future girls" and "future girl gang" give people different feelings. The former refers to them in the new generation. The best, the latter said that they are the product of a small circle; don't include Hollywood, don't include independent film, don't define where they belong, what they can and cannot act, they are the future of the screen.
?The article cannot emphasize that their fame depends on viy's promotion, nor can it mention that any of them had any scandals or relationships with him. Don't gossip and downplay them. Emphasizing their talent, professionalism, and future, emphasizing "future" means that they will gradually take over the screen in the 2010s-2020s, but we must also make it clear that they have received box office and honors, and the industry and critics have highly praised them. They are now , already dominate their age group.
This kind of positioning is different from the Naughty Boys Gang and the Bad Boy Gang. It will not cause limitations to them. It seems that they can only act in viy movies. Just loudly tell the world: these girls are the best new talents ever discovered, they can act in any movie, they have a future.
As for their temperament, you don¡¯t need to write too much. It just needs to be based on the basic facts of the interview, such as being professional, interesting, kind, generous, etc.
Reporters, photographers, and stylists must satisfy both parties.
"People", which has always been adhering to the "publicist-f-endly-strategy" (friendly public relations strategy), agreed to these now-basic requirements, and had to pay the girls a lot of money for their portraits. It is scheduled to be held on January 9 next year. Published in that issue.
Three of the six girls have already agreed, and Ronan is still considering it. In fact, if she doesn't go, there will be no substitutes.
Ye Wei also has to do a good job of informing and appeasing the substitute girls, so as not to suddenly find out and become resentful. As for Nina
January 9th next year will also be Nina¡¯s 18th birthday.
He called Brian: "You tell Nina's manager and her mother that I will not go to the party and the photo shoot, and I will not participate in any more. I told them whoever doesn't want to go, don't go. Every time I have my own opinions, and I am neutral. No one knows whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, so if Nina doesn¡¯t want to go, don¡¯t force her.¡±
He wanted Nina to go there. This would just wash away the bad luck in "Carrie" and would definitely be beneficial to her.
"Weige, how should we order the six girls?" Brian asked. The ranking and styling of the photos are very involved. Who is in the middle? Who wears conspicuous colors?
If this is not done well, the six people will be unhappy. All parties must have their own plans. If they don't want to quarrel, they need viy's hosting.
"I don't know, brother!" Ye Wei shouted, "I don't care, do you want me to help them put on makeup? That's it. I'm going to practice ball. Goodbye."
¡¡
"Auntie said I would make my own decision." Emma hadn't talked to Ye Wei on the phone for a while, and she was very happy, "I like this independence."
"Then you can be independent. I'm just telling you, I have no idea about this matter."
"Okay." Emma had already made up her mind and said happily: "Why don't you go? I am the gang leader, okay? Do you think I am the gang leader?"
"Well maybethat's it."
"Wait, wait!" Emma stopped and asked quickly: "Wei, are there any signs of a new project? How about "Other World"? Zewen's new book "The Story of an Amnesiac Girl"? It won't be published until next year. I I read the manuscript in advance! It¡¯s a very interesting book. I will definitely act in it if it is made into a movie.¡±
"You don't know yet? Oh, okay." Ye Wei paused, "I'm going to play professional football."
Emma opened her mouth and rolled her eyes, "You mean you want to make a movie like "I Love Beckham"?"
¡¡
Amid the commotion, Friday the 15th arrived as scheduled, and "Winter's Bone", which disrupted the awards season, was released! The Girls trilogy is shown simultaneously this week.
In the past week, "Carrie" was canceled; "Happy Feet" continued to be the weekly champion with 21.07 million; New Line's new film "The Nativity" failed miserably (35 million production fee only had a first-week box office of 10.19 million) ; "The Lovely Bones" received 6.15 million, with the total box office rising to 129 million, and there are 1,782 theaters this week; "Soul Surfer" received 490,000, rising to 92.55 million, and there are 173 theaters this week.
There are only three Winter Bones, two in Los Angeles and one in New York. The frustrated movie fans rushed into the target theaters, only to find that the tickets for the midnight show were gone!
"How could it be?" In the ticket hall of Landmark Cinemas, a large group of depressed young movie fans crowded the ticket counter, but were told by the helpless conductor that most of the tickets had been sold through online pre-sale, and they were a step too late.
"I hateOnline pre-sale! "," Can you let me watch in the passage? ", "So I can only see it at night? "
This is not an ordinary independent literary film, Winter Bone is a viy movie that has caused a huge sensation! The three theaters in the first week simply tortured the audience. But moviegoers who would go to this show instead of the new movie "The Pursuit of Happiness", "Dragon Rider" or "Charlotte's Web" will not be able to watch it and will have to book tickets for the show.
In Los Angeles and New York, it¡¯s hard to get a ticket!
From midnight to day and night, every screening is almost full, and celebrities are hidden among the audiences. Many veteran movie fans are paying close attention, maybe which girl is the star, or which old man is Martin Scorsese, and the whole industry is curious about this movie.
As night fell, this performance was naturally full, and no one noticed that "Carrie" and "Sue" were sitting on the left side of the middle row. At this time, the entire venue was enveloped in darkness.
"If you can't do it, just walk away, I don't need you."
The piercing sound of chainsaws resounded loudly, and the images on the big screen shredded the hearts of the audience.
Nina felt so heartbroken. Because of a business event, she and her mother arrived in Los Angeles. She and Olivia "Sue" Thirlby came to watch the film tonight when she had free time.
What a great performanceHow can you act like thatSeeing this, she may not know how good this movie is, but she knows how good Lawrence is and how difficult it is to act. He has won a Golden Globe and even an Oscar nomination. Not surprising.
"We can build a snowman tomorrow."
The screening hall was continuously shocked until the end. When i-was-temptation-when-i-left-home sounded, the audience's sighs were like ghosts crying in the silence. Shut up and watch the movie, yes it is, now they know why Winter Bones is 100% fresh.
Nina looked at Olivia, her eyes were full of tears, she looked sad and dumbfounded, as if to say: "God, I am 20 years old, but what have I done?" Nina grew long He sighed, and he didn't know what was causing his turbulent mood, as if he saw Ye Wei among the gangsters in the bar
Why does my heart still hurt so much?
I already have Ryanwill this be like this for the rest of my life? Participate in the cover article of "People"? Based on the failure of "Carrie"?
Film critics say that this film allows people to see their inner fragility. Can Nina Dobrev do what Rui did?
What are you afraid of? Who are you afraid of? What are you afraid of! Why be afraid! ? go! "Carrie" was a failure, but I didn't. I was nominated for the Saturn Award for Best Actress They just rely on having a good director. If you don't, they'll laugh at you for being timid.
When I played the scene of "Maggie" running in the snow, I didn't have insurance either. This is my opportunity too, I earned it!
Nina has made a decision. Who should be embarrassed? It¡¯s them, not me! When I acted in "The Exorcism Video", Lawrence was still farming in the countryside
¡¡
At 7:30 that evening, the Rockets vs. Lakers match started at the Staples Center Arena, which already had a Christmas atmosphere. Over 18,000 spectators made all areas very lively. In the starry courtside seats, the media And the live broadcast camera saw another figure sitting in a few seats beside the away team's bench, Ye Wei!
During a pause in the game, the camera panned the celebrity audience. Ye Weiyi appeared in a black sweatshirt and jeans, and the arena erupted with a burst of excited screams from girls. This time he smiled and looked at the camera, but there was no topical figure next to him, but a French-looking boy with a big nose, waving excitedly. Hardcore Weimi knew that this was a long-time close friend of Brother Wei.
This game was extremely fierce. Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming, the stars of both teams, performed well. From the first quarter to the fourth quarter, to the first overtime, and then to the second overtime!
Because the Lakers caught up from being 18 points behind at halftime, Kobe was almost 50 points, and the audience was jubilant.
"It's worth it!" Lev shouted and applauded, wearing Kobe's new purple and gold No. 24 jersey, looking at the cheerleaders who were dancing not far away, his big nose turned red with excitement, "One ticket is worth 10 points more, It was really worth it tonight!¡±
Ye Wei ignored him and stretched out his right palm to face the Rockets who were approaching, wanting to high-five the big guy, "Hey, Yao!"
Rockets coach Van Gundy walked over with a serious look on his tactical board. The assistant coaches gathered around, and the sweaty players walked away one after another, including Sean Battier, Juwan Howard, Luther Hyde, Al Stone, and Yao Ming, who had a sullen face and ignored the shouts of the audience on the sidelines.
"Yao! I want a high-five, big Yao, yes!" Ye Wei raised his palms and shouted, but Yao Ming walked past mercilessly, "Please, brother." He had no choice but to catch up and pat Yao Ming's tall ass in full view of everyone. Then I walked back to my seat.?Sit down. Lev asked enviously: "How does it feel?"
¡°The biggest, firmest ass I¡¯ve ever shot.¡± ??He nodded.
Ye Wei's palm did not bring good luck to the Rockets. They were defeated by Kobe Bryant in the second overtime. The excited Kobe Bryant even made flying movements with open arms. Amid the wild cheers of the audience, the Rockets lost their third consecutive game to the Lakers 101:112. Kobe Bryant had 53 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists, and Yao Ming had 35 points, 15 rebounds and 8 blocks, both of which were representative games.
"Hey, Ye Wei is having fun, hehehehehe." China CCTV5 channel, watching the scene of Ye Wei chasing Yao Ming's butt, Zhang Weiping's director couldn't stop laughing.

Thomas Toole, 36, is a New Yorker and the son of a single mother, a dentist.
He had outstanding athletic talent since childhood and won a football scholarship to attend Hamilton College. After graduating from college, he gave up becoming a lawyer and went into business. He started in a chain of laundries and then entered the field of financing. The business grew bigger and bigger, and his company began to invest in the entertainment industry. In 2003, he raised US$600 million from multiple private equity funds to invest in his legendary-pictures. In 2005, he signed a cooperation agreement with Warner Bros. to co-invest in production.
¡°Now that you have money and distribution, let¡¯s produce it. This billionaire has been a fan of the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers since he was a child. It is not surprising that he spent 65 million to produce a football movie like "We Are Marshall" when he first entered the film industry, and Kate Mara from the Mara family joined the starring role. It's also a natural thing.
However, this sports film that wanted to hit the awards season had a bad start. The quality of the finished film was average. Warner saw that it would not be able to sell the tickets and invested little in distribution. It received a poor response after its premiere. It will be released on the 22nd. After all, the evaluation of the film critics will be come out. In the past two days, Owen Gleiberman's "Entertainment Weekly" and Kirk Hornikett's "Hollywood Reporter" have given extremely low scores and negative reviews: unconvincing, insincere, clich¨¦
For Legend and Warner, "We Are Marshall" is now a question of how much money it will lose. What about the others? It was devastated by Shyamalan's "Banshee", with a production fee of 70 million and only a North American box office of 42.28 million/72.78 million global box office; the animated film "Don't mess with the Ants" with a production fee of 50 million had a North American box office of 28.14 million; the worst this year It's "Superman Returns." This blockbuster with high expectations, with a production of 270 million, only had a global box office of 391 million, although the reviews were okay.
¡°$600 million is a lot but not much. If this continues, Legend cannot afford to lose money, and Warner will not continue to cooperate.
Thomas Tull is a genius in the financial industry, but in the film industry he must rely on the talent of filmmakers, otherwise he will only be the second Steve Bing. Legend is a newborn calf with not many connections, and it targets the young market. Reusing a rising star author and director is the only option:
Shyamalan is done, he can cheat other companies, Legend no longer takes risks anyway; Bryan Singer should just go make his "X-Men" series.
Now it is basically a bet on two people, 40-year-old Zack Snyder, whose remake debut "Dawn of the Dead" made a lot of money two years ago (26 million production fees, 102 million global box office), Legend invested in his The new project "300" (budget 65 million) will be released in March next year; 36-year-old Christopher Nolan, the first part of the new "Batman" series has made a good start, and Nolan has become Warner's Darling, the results of this year's "The Prestige" are generally not that great. The key is the second part of "Batman" released the year after tomorrow.
Snyder and Nolan are the last bulwarks of the legend, at least for now.
But when it comes to rising star writers and directors, who can compare to Ye Wei, who is as good as a money printing machine and a prize scanner?
How to win over viy and convince him to be willing to give Legend a project or even a trilogy, let alone the rise, this is about whether Legend can survive in the film industry. It's just that the competition we face is huge. There are Wall Street funds of all kinds who are looking eagerly at Ye Wei, as well as Paramount, Lions Gate, Amblin, Playtone
Hollywood is vying for him, and independent film companies are also vying for him. They are still old friends. What advantage does Legend have?
He is also the son of a dentist. Tuer used this as a selling point and recently made many warm invitations. Finally, he managed to get Ye Wei to play tennis at the Brentwood Country Club in front of his home on the morning of Saturday the 16th. He said, "Playing tennis? We both He¡¯s a football player! It¡¯s interesting, I like it.¡±
At this time, there was a loud banging sound on the tennis court. The two of them were walking around waving their rackets, sweating profusely, and walked to the sidelines to rest. They took the towels and sports drinks handed by the assistant while laughing and chatting. Tour is not in a hurry to discuss business, as long as a friendship is established, anything can be discussed.
"Wei, you have very strong explosive power." Tuer wiped his sweat with a towel and said with a breathless smile: "This game of tennis with you is the most enjoyable one I have played recently."
"Others say I'm the handsome version of Michael Zhang." Ye Wei drank Gatorade, filled his stomach, and said: "Man, I'm making an appointment with Federer."?. I love sports. I really love sports recently. "
"Let's go play golf in two days?" Tour suggested. If viy is willing to play with him or even go on a trip together, then half the battle will be won.
"Actually, I don't like playing golf. I feel that it is for the elderly." Ye Wei shrugged and suddenly had an idea and shouted: "Hey! Why does it have to take two days? You still have the strength, right? Let's go now. Play a game of rugby! No armor, rugby!"
"Haha, let's go now!" Toole wanted it. Hollywood is not Wall Street. If you want to live here, you have to be like an artist. Nolan can pee in his bedroom.
Soon, the two of them moved the venue and roared to start the game on the club's grass!
Bang! ! !
