Chapter 271 The world’s film industry belongs only to Director Lu

Changnian Building, Mars Film and Television

The staff is debugging the equipment in the recording studio.

Lu Chen and Zhou Xun were talking about the monologue in the movie.

Fred beside him was all excited.

The filming of the movie "The Wind" has ended, and the movie can be said to be finished. All that is left is to record a character monologue for the movie.

After recording this line, the entire filming of the movie will be completed, and then Director Lu can get up and go to Hollywood, America, to attend the "Batman: The Dark Knight" celebration party.

"Director Lu, did you write this paragraph?" Zhou Xun looked at the script in his hand.

This "Gu Xiaomeng" monologue is particularly well written. It fits well with what the entire movie is about and also sublimates the movie a little bit.

"I wrote it." Lu Chen didn't want to write it. Who said the novel hadn't been written yet, so he had to spend some time writing it himself. "When I say this line later, there can't be any pauses. There is no need to have any emotion when saying the line. A big change, speaking this monologue more calmly.”

Zhou Xun took the script book and looked at it carefully.

Although when you are recording later, you can look at the script book and say it.

But Zhou Xun will still memorize this line so that he can better understand the character he plays.

Looking at the words in the script book, I admire Director Lu even more. This monologue is particularly well written.

#Whether the message is spread, success or failure depends on today#
I am not afraid of death.

What I'm afraid of is that the people I love don't know why I died.

I am in purgatory leaving this record.

I hope that my family and Sister Yu will forgive me for my decision at this moment.

But I firmly believe that you will eventually understand my feelings.

My dear people, I am so ruthless to you because the nation is on the verge of survival. We can only risk our lives to save ourselves. My body is about to perish, but my soul will be with you. The enemy will not Understand that Laogui and Laoqiang are not individuals, but a spirit and a belief.

"Needless to say, the first few sentences start with 'I left this record in purgatory.'" Lu Chen arranged.

This is the last monologue of the movie.

It was left behind by 'Gu Xiaomeng' before his death.

In order to spread the information out of Qiuzhuang, he planned to sacrifice himself.

Because only the dead can leave Qiuzhuang.

Use the dead bodies as information transmission tools.

The words I wanted to say before I died were embroidered on the edge of the cheongsam with Moss secrets when I was repairing 'Li Ningyu''s cheongsam.

"Director Lu, everything is ready." The staff came over to report.

Zhou Xun put down his script book, came to the recording studio, adjusted his mood, stepped into the role of the movie "Gu Xiaomeng", and gave an OK gesture to Lu Chen who was standing outside the glass.

"Start!" Lu Chen gave the order.

The recording device is powered on.

Zhou Xun said of the lines written by Lu Chen, "I am leaving this record in purgatory. I hope that my family and Sister Yu will forgive me for my decision at this moment, but I firmly believe that you will eventually understand my feelings..."

Wait for the recording to end.

"OK!" Lu Chen gave an 'OK' gesture to Zhou Xun in the recording studio.

The filming of the movie "The Wind" was officially completed.

"Director Lu, we can arrange for your private plane to take off now." Fred glanced at the time, "It is now two o'clock in the afternoon. When we arrive in Hollywood, it should be the afternoon, just in time for dinner."

The time difference between the United States and China is almost exactly twenty hours.

It takes almost ten hours to fly from China to the United States.

"..." Lu Chen was speechless. He was so anxious and worried that he would run away. Besides, he was the boss, so why did he feel like a wage earner, working in such a hurry.

Fred was anxious. The celebration banquet had already been scheduled and would be held in three days. If he went there in advance, he could also prepare in advance, just in case.

After all, the whole world is paying attention to this celebration banquet.

"Director Lu." Zhou Xun came out of the recording studio in a good mood, "All my work on the movie "The Wind" has been completed. Thank you, Director Lu, for inviting me to star in your movie again. In this way, I will invite you to direct Lu tonight. Order food."

"Okay!" Lu Chen agreed.

"Director Lu..." Friede was anxious and wanted Director Lu to leave the airport immediately and fly to the United States.

"Mr. Fred, we'll leave tomorrow. There's no rush for this day." Lu Chen promised Zhou Xun to have dinner together, but he didn't want to rush it. He had a reason to refuse Fred.

Fred had no choice but to agree, but he had to leave tomorrow, and if he delayed any longer, it would be too late.

It has been announced that Director Lu will be attending the celebration party for "The Dark Knight" in Hollywood. If the biggest hero of the movie is not there, is it still a celebration party?

"Director Lu, I'll book the restaurant then." Zhou Xun flipped his hair in front of his eyes, feeling a hint of charm.

……

The next day, Peking Hotel
"Director Lu, I'm sorry last night. I was so drunk that I just pretended that nothing happened last night." Zhou Xun got up and took a bath. He saw Lu Chen lying half on the bed, looking so unconscious. happy.

"..." Lu Chen looked at the clothes all over the place and wondered how it was possible that nothing happened last night.

Last night was particularly crazy.

Zhou Xun is even crazier than himself.

Now that I think about it, Zhou Xun invited him to dinner last night and insisted on drinking. It turned out to be a purpose.

Although I took advantage of it, I had a good experience last night.

But Lu Chen still felt a little depressed in his heart, feeling like there were unspoken rules.

I always go to sleep when I want to.

Now I'm sleeping.

Hey.

Who can I talk to for explanation? You can't call the police. There is no crime against a man's will.

"Director Lu, what's for breakfast? I'll ask the hotel to bring it to you later." Zhou Xun bent down and picked up the clothes on the ground. As soon as he came in last night, he picked them up and threw them around.

Only now do I have time to sort out my clothes.

Nowadays, Zhou Xun is satisfied. He remembers working with Lu Chen on "Shoplifters" for the first time, and he was impressed by Director Lu's talent. His ability is unique in the world's film industry.

As an actress, it is impossible not to be attracted to Director Lu.

Including the movie "Painted Skin" in which he starred, the story was also written by Director Lu.

I am more and more attracted by Director Lu’s talent. This time I will cooperate with "The Wind" again. I don’t want to leave any regrets in my life, so I want to experience Director Lu again no matter what.

When filming "The Wind", I never had a chance on the set.

On the set, as long as Lu Chen chatted a few more words with the actresses on the set, Li Bingbing would pretend to come over with a water glass.

Now that the movie has been completed, Li Bingbing is no longer with Director Lu.

If we don’t create opportunities again, we don’t know when the next time will be.

As for last night’s experience, it was just as expected, very satisfying and satisfying.

"Whatever." Lu Chen is not in the mood to have breakfast now, Zhou Xun is also considered a beauty.

But the key is not that I want to sleep.

But the other person wants to sleep.

The order was reversed, but I still felt a little unhappy.

"Then let's have the hotel's regular breakfast." Zhou Xun took off his bath towel and was about to pick up the clothes he had just put together and put them on.

Lu Chen immediately got up from the bed and came to the front.

Zhou Xun, who was naked, looked at Lu Chen who was very close at hand, and was confused for a moment as to what was going on. When he lowered his eyes, he finally understood and smiled.

Lu Chen put his arms around his waist.

The dignity of men must be restored.

This time, you have to want to sleep, not the other person.

This order is particularly important, related to a man’s face.

……

Two hours later

"Director Lu, you can't blame me now. This is what you thought. Once for me and once for you, it's offset." Zhou Xun and Lu Chen also leaned on the bed.

sweating a lot.

I exercised too much just now.

The experience is stronger than last night.

Both of them drank a lot last night.

Unlike today, both of them were awake, quite awake every time, and the information fed back to the brain was quite sufficient.

"It's offset, and no one owes anyone anything." Lu Chen felt relieved. This was the right thing to do, and the order couldn't be reversed.

"Director Lu, there is something I want to ask you. Is it okay?" Zhou Xun asked.

"What's the matter?" Lu Chen thought, it couldn't be such a silly question like 'have you ever loved someone before'?

"Four Xiaohuadan, who do you plan to marry?" Zhou Xun was quite curious about this matter, and it must be something that many people want to know.

Of course, what I want to know more is that she is a fan of Si Xiaohuadan.

Fans of each of the four little actresses are all arguing over this matter. They all feel that their idol is Director Lu's future wife and is Director Lu's favorite.

"Why didn't you ask if I planned to marry you?" Lu Chen really didn't expect that Zhou Xun would ask this question.After Zhou Xun heard this, he was stunned for a moment and then laughed, "Director Lu, I am not a little girl. Please don't draw cakes for me."

Know it's impossible.

Including Li Bingbing, who was previously on the crew of "The Wind", it is impossible.

The other half of Director Lu is most likely to be among the four little beauties.

The four little beauties, all fifteen or sixteen years old, are following Director Lu. They are regarded as future wives raised by Lu Chen. They only have Director Lu in their lives.

Unlike other actresses, there is more than just Director Lu in her life.

Therefore, Director Lu will definitely choose from among the four little actresses.

As for Zhou Xun, he wants to sleep with Director Lu once more, just because he doesn’t want to leave any regrets in his life. Besides, who doesn’t like the young, wealthy and talented Director Lu?

This is not a disadvantage, but a surprise. It is very satisfying and satisfying.

"Ding dong~"

Then the doorbell rang.

"Open the door." Lu Chen ordered.

Zhou Xun stood up, picked up his clothes and put them on.

As for the talented Director Lu, who was really curious about which actress he liked more, he just didn't wait for Director Lu's answer.

"So many people?" Lu Chen was surprised when he looked at the people coming in.

Fred from Warner Bros.

Wu Ershan, Li Bingbing, Liu Yifei, Gao Yuanyuan and others.

"Director Lu, Mr. Fred said you were here, so I came here with Mr. Fred." Wu Ershan explained immediately, indicating that I didn't come here on purpose.

I thought Director Lu was a person.

Unexpectedly, it was Zhou Xun who opened the door.

I knew I shouldn't have come.

Fred didn't know yet that Wu Ershan had sold him out and explained in English, "Director Lu, it turns out you are resting. If you had known, I would come back later."

One male and one female.

What are you doing in the hotel?

It couldn't be more natural.

Fred also admired Lu Chen's body. He would fly to the United States that night and carefully communicate with the actresses about art.

Li Bingbing didn't expect that Zhou Xun would take down Director Lu when the movie was finishing. He couldn't guard against it. He also glanced at Liu Yifei, who came with him, to see what his expression was.

"What's wrong with you coming over?" Lu Chen came to the living room and sat on the sofa.

Li Bingbing hurried over, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Lu Chen.

"Director Lu, "Kung Fu King" has been released." Wu Ershan brought "Kung Fu King" starring Liu Yifei and Li Bingbing over to report the results.

"How much is the box office?" Lu Chen asked.

I've been busy with "The Wind" recently and haven't paid much attention to the release of "The King of Kung Fu".

Including the promotional activities for the release of "The King of Kung Fu", I didn't go.

When I became a film director, I also wanted to sell it to Universal Pictures for a good price.

"Brother, ten days after its release, the box office in the mainland has reached 1.79 million." Liu Yifei said quickly about the box office of "The King of Kung Fu" in the mainland.

1.79 million in ten days is not bad.

It currently has a box office of 1.79 million, and has entered the top [-] box office of mainland movies.

But the box office won't be a hit.

First, the mainland film market is becoming more and more popular year by year, and the box office is constantly hitting new highs.

The box office of movies has exceeded [-] million, which is no longer as explosive as it was four years ago.

Secondly, the movie's starring cast is particularly strong.

Two kung fu superstars Chen Long and Jet Li star in the film, and it is also the first big screen collaboration between the two kung fu superstars.

The heroine is Liu Yifei, the Best Actress of Baihua, Golden Horse, and the Hong Kong Film Awards. She just won the Hong Kong Film Awards, when Liu Yifei was at her most popular.

The European and American male protagonist in the movie is the male protagonist of the global hit movie "Transformers".

The movie lineup is decent, and the Chinese-language movies are among the best.

Therefore, this box office performance is not an explosion for "The King of Kung Fu", but it is certainly above the passing line. After all, the box office in ten days has reached 1.79 million.

"Director Lu, as well as the box office in Europe and the United States." Li Bingbing quickly added: "In North America and Europe and the United States, the box office currently reaches 7450 million US dollars."

The two major North American film markets, the United States and Canada, have already released it, while some European countries have not released it yet.

"Okay, I understand." Lu Chen is not very concerned about the box office of "The King of Kung Fu". The box office has little to do with Mars Film and Television.

Proceeds from the movie belong to Universal Pictures.

Before the filming of "The King of Kung Fu" even started, it had been packaged and sold to Universal Pictures, and the money was received in advance. Most of this money was invested in the production of "The Wandering Earth".

"Brother, are you going to the United States today?" Liu Yifei said with sad eyes.

I thought that my senior brother would stay in Peking for a while after filming "The Wind", so that I could invite my senior brother to my home for a while and let him have a taste of my mother's craftsmanship.

"Yes." Lu Chen looked at Gao Yuanyuan, "Have you prepared your luggage? We will set off in the evening."

Choose to leave at night.

We also arrived in the United States at night, so we could rest and reverse the jet lag.

"I have brought all my luggage and put it downstairs." Gao Yuanyuan followed him to the United States.

It was Gao Yuanyuan who starred as the "Female Prosecutor" in "The Dark Knight" and had a lot of roles in the movie.

This time, when going to the United States to attend the celebration banquet, not only Gao Yuanyuan, but also Chinese actors who appeared in "Batman" will be brought there by Lu Chen. This is an opportunity to increase their reputation in the world film industry.

"Brother, how about I go with you, okay?" Liu Yifei asked cautiously.

"Director Lu, I think we can go to the United States to promote "Kung Fu King" again and increase the popularity of "Kung Fu King"." Li Bingbing suggested and wanted to run there together.

"I think it would be better for our "The King of Kung Fu" crew to go to Europe to promote it, because we have already promoted it in North America." Wu Ershan put forward a different suggestion, "There are still some countries in Europe that have not released "The King of Kung Fu" ", the benefits of publicity will be higher."

Director Lu is going to the United States this time.

There is only one young actress, Gao Yuanyuan.

So Wu Ershan thought that Director Lu definitely didn't want anyone else to accompany him.

You have to think about Director Lu first, so that Director Lu won't blame him anymore for bringing the "Kung Fu King" crew here just now.

"Okay, you go to Europe to promote "The King of Kung Fu" and discuss the itinerary with Universal Pictures." Lu Chen agreed with Wu Ershan's suggestion that the global box office of "The King of Kung Fu" should be higher.

It now seems that Universal Pictures could not have made any money by purchasing "The Kung Fu King" for more than US$1 million, but it could not make Universal Pictures lose money.

"Okay, Director Lu." Wu Ershan said that this matter will be done well, "Yifei, Bingbing, let's go back now and discuss the promotional activities of "The King of Kung Fu" in Europe."

Liu Yifei had no choice but to say goodbye to her senior brother reluctantly. It seemed that she would not be able to accompany her senior brother to the United States.

"Director Lu, bye~" Zhou Xun also stood up and left. After having it twice, he was already satisfied and would have no more regrets. As for the future, he would experience it again if he had the opportunity.

Now there are only three people left in the room: Lu Chen, Gao Yuanyuan, and Fred.

"Director Lu, I won't interrupt. We're leaving at night, right?" Fred got Lu Chen's approval and left the hotel room.

"Are you ready for the book I asked you to prepare?" Lu Chen asked about business.

"It's ready, I'll put it in my suitcase." Gao Yuanyuan was puzzled. This time Lu Chen went to the United States to attend the "Batman: The Dark Knight" banquet, and deliberately brought a copy of the "Wandering Earth" novel.

Do you want to read novels to relieve your boredom while traveling?
But with myself here, how can the journey be boring?

Although Gao Yuanyuan was confused, she still prepared the novel "The Wandering Earth".

Director Lu said he would bring one copy, and Gao Yuanyuan brought three copies. Even if one was accidentally dropped, there would still be two more. These were the novels Director Lu named that he wanted to take with him.

……

America, Hollywood Boulevard

The celebration party for "The Dark Knight" was specially chosen to be held on Hollywood Boulevard.

Warner Bros. Entertainment just wants to tell movie fans around the world that "The Dark Knight" has exceeded 10 billion U.S. dollars at the global box office. It is the highest-grossing superhero movie in the world and the first superhero movie in the world to exceed 10 billion U.S. dollars.

And now the global box office of "The Dark Knight" is heading towards the US$11 billion mark.

The main reason is that it broke through 10 billion US dollars and did not hold a celebration banquet immediately.

The Huaying brothers thought about it too, but Lu Chen was filming "The Wind" at the time and had to wait until the movie was finished.

And in front of the Hollywood Cinema.

A screen was also erected.

Displayed above is the real-time global box office data of "The Dark Knight".

It has now reached 1099678395 US dollars.

The numbers are accurate to single digits.

Every second, the numbers one, ten, and one hundred are changing, recording the global real-time box office data of "The Dark Knight."

Of course, the data is definitely biased, but it won’t differ too much and is within a rough range.

Warner Bros. doesn't need to be particularly precise. It just needs to let the world's audiences see that "The Dark Knight" is increasing its box office every moment and is heading towards the $11 mark.

In today's world film industry, it definitely belongs to "The Dark Knight" and to Director Lu.
