The three girls cursed and were extremely depressed. Because they didn't watch the finale, the biggest suspense remained unresolved, that is, Bella asked Edward to bite her, turning her into a vampire like Edward. In the end, did Edward bite or not? ?
The three of them looked at each other, why don't they go to the cinema to watch a movie tomorrow?

In Beijing, Wang Qiankun called his nephew Zhou Peng to thank him for his contribution to the network anti-theft work during this time.

"Second Uncle, what are you talking about, you're out of touch~" In addition to being a programmer, he also got involved in the hacker circle when he was in college.

When he discovered that pirated videos of "Twilight" appeared on the Internet one after another, the angry Wang Qiankun thought of his great nephew.

This is the first time that such a large-scale film piracy leak has occurred on the domestic Internet. In the past, pirated discs usually began to flow out a week or two after its release, but "Twilight" is very different this time.

The reason is that it is still too popular, especially when I heard that it is sold like crazy in foreign countries. Domestic audiences definitely want to watch it, but the conditions are really not allowed.

The economic reason is only one aspect, but the bigger reason is that the objective conditions do not allow it.

The scale of the film distribution this time is not small, with 400 copies and some digital copies, but now there are 1400 movie theaters across the country, more than 3000 screens, adding up to more than 500 copies, it is difficult to cover the whole country.

The usual way is to put it in a big city for a period of time, and then copy it down to the second-tier cities, and finally to the third-tier cities.

And some third-tier cities and most fourth- and fifth-tier cities don’t have movie theaters at all, so those audiences who are eager for movies can only watch pirated copies.

The pirates also saw that the discussion about Twilight on the Internet was too hot, and it was obviously profitable. In addition, the development of the Internet has matured, so they didn't wait for higher-definition resources, skipped the pirated CD manufacturers, and built a website Distribute resources, and then make some pornographic advertisements to earn some high advertising fees.

"The Twilight Saga" is a start, and it will be much more convenient for netizens to watch pirated versions in the future.

But Wang Qiankun definitely didn’t agree, it’s all my son’s hard-earned money, so he asked Zhou Peng to post a reward on the hacker forum, and set up a pirate website mopping up army, as long as they found it, they would kill it, anyway, it’s not a legitimate website , When it goes out, it goes out. This is called cleaning up the Internet environment.

Zhou Peng, who was working overtime late at night, glanced at the university classmate and immediate leader next to him, "Yiming, are you still off work?"

Zhang Yiming looked at the time, "Okay, that's it for today."

The royal power heard some of these domestic situations from the mouth of the old king, but didn't pay much attention to them. This is an inevitable stage in the development of things, and there is no solution.

After a few more years, even if pirated resources are released online, no one will watch them. Either they will lose interest in movies, or they will have a higher pursuit of picture quality, and their pockets will be bulging, which is not bad.

It was daytime on Wang Quan's side, so he called Feng Tianming and asked him if he wanted to be a giant wolf with special effects, which special effects company would be suitable for him, and he hoped that the technology would be better.

For the second and third films, because of the salary saved by signing the actors in advance, he plans to devote all of them to the special effects of the film, striving to expand the audience of the film from teenagers to audiences who like blockbusters, and the most important point of the second film is the werewolf transformation.

Feng Tianming firstly congratulated Wang Quan on the success of his movie, "My girlfriend and I watched your "Twilight" and she liked it very much. You should be preparing for the second film, The Werewolf Family."

"Yes."

"I think Method studios has an advantage in terms of biological special effects. They made "Men in Black", and the asking price is not as ruthless as ours. You can think about it, oh, yes, their character technology Director Zhou Mingquan is also from Huaxia, and he is very nice."

This company later also participated in well-known works such as "Black Panther", "Wonder Woman" and "Aquaman". Although it is not well-known internationally, it is also one of the industry giants in the US film and television special effects industry.

Wang Quan nodded and made a note. At that time, there may be more than one company to cooperate with. Many Hollywood blockbusters are jointly participated by multiple special effects companies. it used.

The two sequels of "Twilight" 2 and 3 have a budget of more than [-] million dollars, and King Quan expects to spend no less than half of the funds on special effects.

Although Long looked up and signed the follow-up contracts of the main actors before the "Twilight Saga" became popular, the actors were not angry and depressed because of it.

It’s not a big deal to get less pay, the pay is only a few dollars, and the other benefits brought to them by the big hit of "Twilight" are simply too much, especially the leading actors and actresses.

Now the media affectionately call them Twilight Boy and Twilight Girl, and they have already contacted their agents with movie contracts and advertising endorsements, and the movie has only been released for two days.

The brokerage company estimates that this wave of two new stars can earn tens of millions of dollars conservatively. The key is that this movie ignited their acting careers and gave them more choices.

And there are people who have gained love.

Although Robert Pattinson did not reap love, he was also very happy when he was interviewed by the media.

Although it was difficult for him to swallow the original work, he felt less uncomfortable after watching Director Wang's finished film. Director Wang deserved to be Director Wang. Through his superb film art, he temporarily ignored the blood of the plot.

And he already got the scripts for the next two films.

In the second part, he had very few plots, and the protagonists almost became Bella and the little wolf. From this part on, the royal power gradually became significantly different from the original.

It became even more obvious in the third part. Robert even told his agent, "The script is much better than the original!"

An excellent script and a reliable director have eased Robert's resistance to this series a lot. He is afraid that if he changes directors in the next few films, his confidence in this series will be hit, whether it is him or the fans.

Let Director Wang continue to direct!
But he was still a little unwilling, why did little K not call him.

At this time, Little K was calling Dorothy, the battery was very strong, and she was a little numb.

"What are you looking at, darling?" Little K came out of the shower and hugged Boss Tao from behind.

Boss Tao sat in front of the computer desk, "I was looking for the program we recorded, oh, I found it!"

She found the latest issue of "Interview with Yang Lan", which had a picture of her climbing the Great Wall with little K.

Many domestic viewers are also watching this program.

For example, the Mayo family, even Mei Xi, who is about to take the senior high school entrance examination, is allowed to watch TV, but she has some opinions on her uncle Wang Quan, why should Zhang Jingying sing the promotional song of "Twilight", can't she ask Chunchun? Chun's song is also great!

As a result, she didn't dare to speak out among the fans after watching "The Twilight Saga". According to their principles, they could not support the works of their opponents by default. The other Supergirls back then were all opponents, especially Zhou Bichang and Zhang Liangying.

Therefore, the films supported by Zhang Jingying's promotional song cannot be blatantly supported.

When the host and two guests came on stage, Mayo said with a smile, "This is the first time I have seen an outdoor interview with Yang Lan. I feel that this model is very novel and can be promoted."

His wife Xu Yidao, "This seems to be Quan Er's proposal, and it's only because of his big face that he can change the rules of the show."

Mayo, "Yes, I heard from my classmates in the United States that the hottest movie this year is probably the Twilight Saga. The popularity of Harry Potter and Pirates of the Caribbean is not as good as it, especially the teenagers, who are so fascinated, this time, Quaner can be regarded as a god of war."

Mei Xi hurriedly said, "Who doesn't want to have a boyfriend who will never grow old, is also handsome, and has superpowers. This setting is simply too invincible."

Xu Yi laughed at her, "And he's still old, Edward is over 100 years old."

Meixi gave a little talk, then pointed to the TV and asked her mother, "Which one of them do you think looks better?"

Dorothy and Twilight Girl said with Xu Yi's eyes, "I prefer girls like Twilight Girl who look obedient. Look how quiet she is, but she's a little thinner."

Mei Xi, "I like Boss Tao, how handsome he is, and his hairstyle is also pretty, I want to have short hair."

Mayo thought, of course Yang Lan is the prettiest, but he dare not say that he still wants a second child.

Xu Yi persuaded, "Your head shape and face shape are not suitable for short hair, unlike your mother, any hairstyle looks good."

Meixi rolled her eyes directly, while Mayo rolled her eyes covertly.

Seeing the back, when Boss Tao said that if Wang Quan chooses to return to China, as long as he is happy, Xu Yi couldn't help asking, "Da Ao, hasn't Quan'er applied for a green card yet?"

"No, he graduated and is now on a work visa."

"That's so troublesome. Talent like him should be the country's dream."

"It's hard to leave the homeland, and that kid has feelings. I heard from my uncle that Quan'er is determined to return to China to develop. I guess he will come back after filming this series."

"Ah, I made a lot less money." Xu Yi was a little bit sorry for this.

Mayo, "It's okay, the company has his shares, and if the company can make money, he can always make money."

After the show was broadcast, the discussion about whether King Quan should return to China caused huge controversy on the Huaxia Internet.

Some people think that Wang Quan's filming abroad is to win glory for the country and export a good and positive image of China. This is much more important than his return to China. The domestic mud will only ruin his talent. It is better for him to keep filming in Hollywood. Go down and take a picture of Spielgerber's status.

The other part thinks that no matter how many movies you make in the United States, it will also add luster to the United States. Only by returning to China can the film industry of the motherland be truly promoted. These domestic directors who are finished can't make good works. I strongly hope that Director Wang Return to China as soon as possible to save Neiyu!

For this reason, netizens divided into two camps and established two post bars respectively.

One called "Director Wang, please stay in the United States", and the other called "Director Wang, please come back soon".

There is a computer in Meixi's room, and Mayo intends to cultivate her interest in this area. After watching the show, she has nothing to do, and happened to see these two newly built post bars, both of which have hundreds of people.

Now there are more people staying in the United States, so Meixi joined you, come back quickly, and balance it out.

Later, more and more people came here, among you there is me, and among me there is you.

When "Director Wang, come back soon" someone posted the box office data of "Twilight" in the mainland, half a day later, the person next door posted the box office situation in North America.

The domestic box office in the first week was 3900 million. The impact of piracy did not shake its rising box office data. It was 1100 million on the first day, and it jumped to 1500 million on Saturday.

However, compared with overseas, it is far worse.

After grossing over $3600 million on the first day, the momentum weakened on the second day, at 2660 million, and further weakened on the third day, with only $2305 million at the box office.

The three-day box office in the first weekend reached an astonishing $8575 million!

The original version only has less than 7000 million, and this version of Wang Quan has a better reputation. Although there are some controversies, the score can still be maintained above [-] points on IMDb, but with the increase of audience, there is a downward trend.

This score is second only to "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" (9300 million) in June's film opening data, ranking second in history, and this is June of the summer vacation, the gold content is higher than September , The cold period in February is much higher.

As for another super-British blockbuster "Fantastic Four 2" in the same period, the first day of drawing was less than 2000 million, and the word-of-mouth collapsed directly. Many fans of the first film even shouted, I would rather watch it with this money "Twilight" also doesn't want to see this Tuo Xiang!

So there were only 1300 million left on the second day, only 1000 million on the third day, and the box office was 4320 million in the first weekend. Fortunately, it was almost killed by "Twilight". It is hard to say whether North America can break through [-] million.

Such a result can almost declare that there will be no 3 "Fantastic Four", at least it is impossible to make a third film with this set of crew.

Jessica Alba's loss of an important role in her acting career is a huge blow to her in full swing, and investors will therefore doubt her box office appeal.

For this reason, she also called Wang Quan and complained, "It's all your fault, so you must come when "Lucky Chuck" premieres."

The film written by Wang Quan has already started to promote. Taking advantage of Wang Quan's enthusiasm, he said, "We will talk about next month's matter next month, but I am really sorry to cause you to lose your job."

Jessica sighed, "Netizens say that you are the real version of Lucky Chuck. Of course, not through sex, but actresses who play your role will be lucky, like Megan Fox, Gal Gadot, Not only became popular, but also received good projects, Lily Collins and Kristen Stewart are also popular, I don’t know if I can change my luck, after all, I just acted in a movie written by you.”

Wang Quan smiled slightly, "Jessica, how do you know that they are lucky enough not to have sex~"

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the line, and then Jessica asked, "Did I drop a piece of underwear in your car before?"

"Yes, I said I would send it back to you, but you said no."

"Then do you still keep it?"

Throw it away a long time ago, "Of course, I have always treasured it."

Jessica, "So, can I go to your house and get it?"

Wang Quan, "Of course, you should have come~"
