Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There was no upset at the 13th Screen Actors Guild Awards. Forest Whitaker and Helen Mirren won Best Actor and Best Actress respectively, while the Best Supporting Actor and Actor went to Eddie Murphy and Jennifer Hader of "Dreamgirls"  Sen won.  This is a victory for African-American actors (3/4), a loss for Double Bones, but tlb won the best cast.

    With millions of viewers watching, a group of TLB actors happily took the stage. Time was limited and they did not say much. After Reeves and Wei Zi, Ye Wei said: "It is a wonderful reward to be praised by my peers. Thank you all.  "The guy next to me is very talented and a jerk, and maybe that's just masculinity."

    Her off-key words aroused warm applause from the guests present, but why she said "manly" repeatedly was not known until two days later.

    Manchester!

    January 30, 2007, a day recorded in football history, the incident of Ye Wei, who has always been concerned about, went to Manchester United for a trial training came to fruition.

    This result shocked the media around the world, and it dominated the headlines of entertainment and sports pages. This result made "Manchester United", "What is Manchester United", "Premier League" and other football-related words appear on Google's hot searches in the United States?  This is the news that David Beckham confirmed to join the Los Angeles Galaxy next season a few days ago.

    This result was reported by news programs on all TV stations, studied by ESPN hosts, discussed by news talk shows such as "The Daily Show" and "Ellen Show", and was exclaimed on Facebook, Twitter and other social networks.  and wailing sounds.

    This is one of the most amazing celebrity career changes in history, a bit like Michael Jordan from basketball to baseball, Mickey Rourke from the screen to boxing, Reagan from actor to presidentbut it's not a singer or model who crosses over into acting.  Going to do business is not a celebrity challenge at the NBA All-Star Weekend, nor is it a tennis celebrity charity match.

    "Oh my God!" This is the common cry of countless movie fans and football fans.

    The Premier League club Manchester United announced the signing of free agent Ye Wei on a contract that runs until June this year. The weekly salary is only 1,000 pounds, but Manchester United's income from selling Ye Wei's jerseys, organizing warm-up matches and other commercial activities in which he appeared  , to give Ye Wei 40% of the profits.

    This contract breaks the previous concept of the club's overall image rights. In today's international football, players cannot get these incomes. Even players like AC Milan's Inzaghi who sold 50% of their image rights have never received it.  Money spent on warm-up matches.  But on the other hand, there is low weekly salary, no guarantee, and no superstar benefits such as luxury hotel suites or private jets.

    The rarest "superstar contract" in football history is born!

    Before the media and the public could question whether this was a money-making business show organized by Ye Wei and Manchester United, Ye Wei issued a post announcing that all his income from Manchester United, except for his weekly salary, would be donated to World Vision and other non-profit charities that help children.  , the reason for getting salary is to rent a house in Carrington.

    ¡°I sincerely hope that while fulfilling my dream, I can help more people in need.¡±

    What a great young man, I have nothing to say now

    Fans of the movie couldn¡¯t help but praise her. Ye Wei was really not using charity as a tax avoidance trick, she was actually donating it.

    Manchester United also revealed that Ye Wei will wear the No. 37 jersey. This number does not have a long history and glorious tradition. Only Jonathan Greening (1997-1998), John O'Shea (1999-2000) and Danny Webb (2000)  -2003), it has been vacant for four years. When Ye Wei wore it, Manchester United¡¯s No. 37 was fixed from then on.

    Regarding the labor certification hurdle, Manchester United's spokesperson told the media: "We are already applying for a labor certification for Weige. We will appeal after failure according to the procedures. He is an absolutely special genius! Manchester United hopes that his appeal will be approved quickly.  ¡±

    Some fans left messages on Manchester United¡¯s official website asking whether Ferguson was crazy for giving Ye Wei his precious special talent clause quota of one per season?  As a result, a spokesman for Manchester United explained to the public that the quota limit was just a rumor. The law is that "each player can only appeal once per season." Ye Wei's quota belongs to Ye Wei and does not affect others.

    Despite this, many fans in the media lamented, like in China, why didn¡¯t Manchester United appeal for King Dong?  Renting it out for exercise?  Brother Wei, this treatment!  According to the "Sun" report, Wenger was very angry about Manchester United's complaint about Ye Wei's operation. An insider said, "If Ye Wei can pass, then Arsenal has a hundred players to be signed who can pass.

    Another news is that regardless of whether the labor certificate can be obtained, Manchester United will not loan Ye Wei out. He will stay in Carrington for training.

    Does viy really have the ability to play professional football?  This question is questioned all over the world, including hardcore esotericists.

    Manchester United released another video of Ye Wei's actual combat during the trial period. In it, he made a long pass from the midfield to the right to assist the striker in counterattacking the goal, which really made the fans??A gasp of air-conditioning, a genius's perspective, a scalpel-like thrust!  ESPN also invited Ye Wei to perform a show. With no one guarding him, his speed was amazing and his footwork was superb, which was only higher than FM2007's data.

    Amidst the voices of experts saying that this contract will make Manchester United and Ye Wei a win-win situation, countless people have asked Ye Wei on Twitter, "How can I buy your jersey?" They also went to Manchester United's official website in droves to inquire.  But a spokesman for the local Manchester United Fans Association lamented: "Manchester United's worst signing is so unfamiliar that we don't recognize it. Such naked business behavior is disgusting. We will never buy Ye Wei's jersey!"  "Other fans expressed excitedly, "Ye Wei's joining proves our greatness!"

    Fans are divided, movie fans are crying goodbye, and many people have even launched a selfie video activity on YouTube to "ask Ye Wei to make a movie"

    The reaction of the whole world is just like the headline of Yahoo Sports: "Ye Wei joins the Premier League team Manchester United! (This is not an April Fools' Day joke)"

    But among so many headlines, the most classic one from Sky Sports is: "Dream Theater welcomes talented director Ye Wei!"

    The-theatre-of-dreams-weled-the-talented-director-vigor-yeah!

    Celebrities went "ah-wow" on social media, and Amy Rossum laughed on Twitter: "This is why we love this guy."

    Amid this turmoil, Ye Wei accepted an exclusive interview with the New York Times:

    "New York Times": Everyone is frightened by your contract with the Premier League team Manchester United. What is going on?

    Ye Wei: People have a stereotype that if you can¡¯t do anything, you go to practice sports. If you can¡¯t even do physical work well, you go to create art.  This is not the case, and sports and acting have never been too far apart. I can count a hundred film professionals who have been professional athletes, and I can't count those who have a background in school sports teams.  Everyone was surprised simply because this was not the usual order.  In fact, Howard Hughes also made airplanes. I just folded a paper airplane.

    "New York Times": Now that you are at the peak of your career, you have decided to stop acting. Why?  The industry estimates that your salary has reached 30 million US dollars?

    Ye Wei: There is room for negotiation.  Not everything is about money, not mine.  I am really lucky. The wealth I have accumulated in the past few years has given me more choices. Rather than making endless money, I want to do something that is truly interesting, passionate and challenging.  So I did that.  But my love for movies is everlasting, I just leave for a while and I will come back.

    "The New York Times": How many commercial factors did Manchester United have to sign you?

    Ye Wei: This is like asking you how much filling you can get from eating a dessert.  To be honest, Manchester United is not hungry. Even if they are starving to death, they will not use me to satisfy their hunger, but of course I will eat it.  The off-field contribution I have brought to the club is obvious. As for the on-field contribution I can bring to the club, it cannot be said. No matter how much I say, it cannot compare to hard training.  If I get a chance to play one day, everyone will know about it.

    "The New York Times": Tell us specifically about your off-field contributions to Manchester United?

    Ye Wei: I would rather talk about what this journey can bring to me. I have met many new friends and seen many new things at the Carrington training base, which are different from the film industry and my previous life circle.  , this is so interesting.  For example, I successfully organized a "movie night" where a group of our teammates got together to watch a classic movie and tell jokes.  I will continue to do this and do my best to contribute to Manchester United. These will also be precious memories.  "

    "The New York Times": Does Manchester United have any plans for you to play in the game?

    Ye Wei: There is no such thing. All I can do is keep working hard every day and hope that my dream will come true soon.

    "New York Times": Why choose No. 37?  What special meaning does it have?

    Ye Wei: When is January 37th?  ¡¿

    Followers have watched each of Ye Wei¡¯s media interviews and can feel his sincerity.  Ye Wei didn't say much on social networks. He only posted the same sentence on Facebook, Twitter, blogs, etc., a line from "Run Lola Run", a long-lost Yunique Culler style:

    ¡°Football is round, a game lasts ninety minutes, that¡¯s the fact, everything else is purely theoretical, let¡¯s get started!¡±

    ¡­¡­

    From January 26th to February 1st, the North American movie market came to an end. After last year's 6% freshness of "Date Movie", the second film "Epic Movie" won the weekly box office championship with 21.14 million.

    This spoof comedy movie with a production cost of 20 million has quite the potential to make money, although its freshness rating is only 2% and its likeability rating is 29%.  The only positive review from global film critics came from Entertainment Weekly's Owen Gleiberman, who said the film was a b.Called it "affectionate" for its satire, other critics rushed to criticize it.  "Wedding Day is Coming" and Ye Wei are constantly mentioned. Ye Wei's prediction of the spoof movie when he was 16 years old has already come true.

    On February 2, the 59th Screenwriters Guild Awards were announced. "The Departed" unexpectedly defeated Two Bones to win the Best Adapted Screenplay. This also caused Ye Wei's Oscar winning situation to decline, and also caused controversy among media fans. Ye Wei  Another injustice!  The Best Original Screenplay was won by "Tower of Babel" defeating rivals such as "Half Nelson".

    On February 3, the 59th Directors Guild Awards were presented. Without any surprise, Martin Scorsese was awarded the Best Director of a Feature Film for "The Departed".

    On the afternoon of Saturday, February 3, Nickelodeon¡¯s roadshow game show slime-across-ame Japan recorded its new episode outdoors at Universal Studios in Los Angeles.

    The program has hosts (Lily Collins, James Lewis Jr., Chloe Dilandis, two appearances in each episode), contestants, celebrity guests, live audiences and staff.  Its games are designed for children aged 8-17, such as two contestants matching Nickelodeon elements in a tic-tac-toe grid, which character is from which series.  The losers of all the mini-games will be doused with the Nickelodeon logo in sticky green sludge by the staff, while the winners will receive prizes such as bicycles and sporting goods.  Celebrity guests will perform and be interviewed live.

    The teenagers and children in the audience were very surprised and excited that day, not because of the guests Mandy Moore and Ye Wei appearing in the audience!

    Ye Wei just sat there but stole the show. Under the strong request of all the audience, he had to go on stage to be interviewed by Lily, and the other female host Chloe made a fuss.  Lily smiled and asked him: "What kind of performance did you bring to us today? Even if there is no performance, we will still be wet in the mud!" All the children in the audience were jubilant.

    "I'm just passing by Okay, I'll sing a song for everyone." Before Ye Wei said which song he wanted to sing, Lily quickly stopped him: "Don't even think about it!" She said happily to the audience:  "This is too uncreative and not suitable for him, don't you think?" Everyone shouted in response.  Ye Wei shrugged and said: "Then I will perform a puppet show for everyone, Lily, and you will control me, just like you usually do." The whole audience shouted again.

    "Then I want it?" Lily raised her hand in confusion, and Ye Wei next to her suddenly swayed lightly and mechanically with her movements.  The children exclaimed, and Lily laughed and manipulated him in great fun. Ye Wei did whatever she said and did the same. He also performed a puppet dance, showing his tacit understanding with her and superb acting skills.  .

    The show of affection between the two became the biggest highlight of this program. After it was broadcast next Friday night, it was well received by the audience. Weili fans said it was so sweet.

    On Sunday, February 4th, at 6 pm local time in Miami, the Super Bowl, the annual sports event in the United States, was held.  In the end, after more than three hours of fierce battle, the Indiana Colts, led by superstar quarterback Peyton Manning, defeated the Chicago Bears 29-17.

    Beckham appeared in a midfield commercial to warm up the brand¡¯s entry into the United States.  This football superstar is not as famous as Manning in the United States, and is far less famous than Ye Wei.  "One Shot 2" with his guest appearance will be released in the UK on the 9th. Now this movie is busy getting involved with Ye Wei, hoping to land on the North American screen.

    On February 5, Ye Wei¡¯s application for a labor certificate failed, and Manchester United immediately filed a complaint.  The arbitration panel has not yet been set up, but people with a discerning eye can see that public relations are already underway. Some football journalists are cheering for Ye Wei¡¯s complaint, and public relations articles have been published:

    "Let Ye Wei land in the Premier League, it will not only benefit Manchester United but the entire league. Is there any better promotion than him? Don't let Ye Wei go to Germany or Spain!"

    "Even the game knows that excellent football level is divided into technical, physical and mental aspects. Ye Wei, who is under 19 years old, has an undoubted genius mind. He is talented on the field, and he can also bring immeasurable value to the development of the Premier League.  promote."

    "Some people worry that approving Ye Wei's appeal will relax the standards. Which young movie celebrity can you find who has the ability and willingness to play in the Premier League?"

    On February 5, the Oscar nominees luncheon was held at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. Hundreds of nominees attended. The much-anticipated Ye Wei and three future girls all appeared.  In front of the media camera board, he did not change his bad boy demeanor. He hugged Lawrence on the left and Vikander on the right, raising the corners of his mouth evilly.

    But Jennifer Lawrence first showed no expression on her face and then pushed him away, which caused controversy among the media.  Lawrence responded on Twitter: "I'm losing my temper. I'm not happy that I can't make a movie with him for the time being. You guys have no idea how close I am to him."

    On February 7, Manchester United officially released photos of Ye Wei officially joining the team, with Ferguson on the left and Ye Wei on the right picking up his No. 37 red jersey.  heHis bright smile made many hard-to-accept fans begin to be happy for him, and there was also a new round of blessings on social networks.

    When the North American movie market passed from February 2 to 8, Sony's horror film "The Believer" won the championship next week with 17.52 million, which is not bad compared to its 16 million production fee.  The film's star, Kristen Stewart, is seeing a rebound as she makes her first appearance since the critical failure of "Jumanji 2" two years ago.

    On February 10th, Emma Roberts¡¯ 16th birthday, she held a fashionable event-style birthday party in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, and invited some friends and celebrities to attend.  But the media didn't notice Ye Wei, but they saw Nina Dobrev.  It is reported that Dobrev recently moved from Toronto to Los Angeles to focus on developing her acting career. She has taken more street photos, event photos and news.  Nina happily posted on Facebook, "So happy to start my new life!"

    On Sunday, February 11, the 60th British Academy Film Awards ceremony was held in London. The famous British talk show host Jonathan Ross hosted the party.  Although BFA prefers British films, in recent years it has basically been a preview of the Oscars.  Best Picture for "The Queen", Best Director for Paul Greengrass of "Flight 93", Forest Whitaker and Helen Mirren once again won Best Actor and Best Actress

    Ye Wei attended the ceremony that night, but lost to "The Last Dictator" in the competition for best adapted screenplay, and all nominations for the Girls Trilogy were wiped out.  The future girls nominated by bfa include Lawrence, Olsen, Ronan and Vikander, all of whom attended. Lawrence said in the interview: "This is my first time going abroad, it's like arriving on another planet."

    The next day, British paparazzi reporters photographed three girls, except Ronan, playing together in Carrington, Manchester. Did they go to visit the class together?  This is exactly what the tabloids are eager to expect, and it is also what fans have always said is Ye Wei's own "female cheerleading team."

    On Monday, February 12, Ye Wei announced a surprising news: "The beta version of our crowdfunding website spotpass is online!"

    He and spotpass.com¡¯s explanation let the media and the public know what online crowdfunding is.
