You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 617 ① Korean Ban ② Young Ghost Blows Out the Light ③ Motion Capture

Han Dongjun said to Wu Jingshen mysteriously, "Brother Jing, have you heard of Sa?"

Wu Jing thought to himself, I have been in the team before, how could I not know? I was still paying attention to related news on the way here.

But he didn't expect that just after the United States and South Korea announced their plans to spread the virus, it would directly affect the activities of Korean stars in China. This time the country's reaction speed was really fast.

In fact, there is no news of a ban on South Korea yet, but with the accumulation of time, the people's resentment towards the Korean country has long been quite dissatisfied, and the relationship between the two countries is a powder keg that can be ignited at any time.

Therefore, after knowing this, Wang Quan directly ordered that Jun Ji-hyun should not come to China for promotion. At the same time, he also stopped promoting Jun Ji-hyun as the heroine to avoid causing public resentment and forming public opinion that is unfavorable to "Pacific Rim 2".

Miyoshi Ayaka also leaned over to eavesdrop, but didn't quite understand, so she asked Shota Sometani, who had a shaved head and had just asked for leave from the crew of "Legend of the Demon Cat".

Shota Sometani does know something about this. After all, men are political animals.

After understanding, Miyoshi Ayaka was very glad that it was not a ban on visiting Japan. She was still waiting for Director Quan to come to Japan.

Miyoshi Ayaka only had one day for the promotion in the capital, so she was racing against time. After finishing the promotion work, she immediately ran to the set to wait for Wang Quan to get off work, and finally she was able to satisfy her craving.

The box office of Pacific Rim 2 is also quite impressive. Wang Quan's strategy of continuing to use director Tora is successful. The quality of the finished film is much better than the second film with a different director in the original time and space. The North American box office is expected to exceed the previous one.

With the support of the popular action star Wu Jing, the film led the domestic box office with 6.5 million yuan in its first weekend, making it another 10 billion+ work.

As for the Chinese-style 2D animation blockbuster "Big Fish and Begonia" promoted by Light Media, it earned 2.2 million yuan in the first week. Although the result is very good, the plot has been criticized, which has limited the box office ceiling of this movie.

After seeing the first week's box office data, Guangguang Wang Changtian said with regret and relief: "At least we are not at the bottom."

During the same period, there was another low-budget movie directed by Wen Zhang, "Lu Yao Zhi Mali", starring Huang Haibo, Song Jia, Zhu Yawen and others, which ranked third among the three new films.

This is the first film directed by Wen Zhang. It did well at the box office, grossing over 1.5 million yuan in the first week and ranking third on the weekly chart with million yuan.

Wen Zhang was actually not very satisfied. As they were all debut film directors and also actors who crossed over to become directors, Xu Zheng, Wu Jing, Chen Sicheng, and Yu Feihong all achieved much better results than himself.

"This result is good enough. Any amount is enough."

Lao Wang was quite satisfied. The movie had a good reputation and was a small hit at the box office. Due to the small investment, the profit was quite considerable. The key was that it rescued his two adopted sons, Wen Zhang and Huang Haibo, from the quagmire.

Huang Haibo has started taking on new dramas, and Wen Zhang is also preparing for his next directorial work.

"Prepare your new script well. I still have high hopes for you." Lao Wang patted Wen Zhang on the shoulder. After all, he was one of the few directors trained by Qiankun, and Zhou Xingchi and Xu Zheng were both somewhat disloyal. Apart from Dapeng, he could only train Wen Zhang.

Although some netizens are still condemning the incident between Wen Zhang and Yao Di, after all, he and Ma Yili are now doing well and they often take their kids out shopping together.

Lao Wang is only generally interested in "Lu Yao Zhi Mali". This movie mainly reflects Huang Haibo's audience appeal. The next one is Wen Zhang's highlight - "The Monkey King"!
The investment in this movie is as high as 200 million yuan, which may not be a big deal for Wangdao, but for Qiankun, 200 million yuan is already a huge investment. As Butian Films couldn't handle the special effects in the later stage, they also found Vita from New Zealand, and specially invited director Yang Qing from Wangdao to help.

Last time Wen Zhang played Tang Monk, this time he plays Sun Wukong. His character is actually more suitable for the rebellious Sun Wukong. Wen Zhang's interpretation also makes this fan-made Sun Wukong, which is different from the original Sun Wukong, stand out.

Moreover, the young director can better understand the connotation of "The Monkey King", so the final word-of-mouth performance is still quite good.

It’s just that many netizens are not very friendly to the public opinion about Journey to the West now. They think that there are too many remakes. After all, "The Monkey King 2: The Return of the Great Sage" and "Havoc in Heaven" were released at the beginning of the year, and before that there were "The Monkey King 3: The Return of the Great Sage" and "Havoc in Heaven". It seems like we can see a new monkey every year.

The audience also has aesthetic fatigue, so they were already criticizing "The Monkey King" before it was released, as if it was bound to lose money.

Fortunately, "The Monkey King" performed well. With a box office of over 300 million yuan in its first week, it no longer had a problem to make back the investment, and it also gave rise to the ambition to develop a sequel.

Yang Qing is still the best candidate in Lao Wang's mind, but unfortunately he currently has a task within Wang Dao, and needs to finish that film before he can consider the sequel to Wukong.
What Yang Qing is about to start filming is "Young Ghost Blows Out the Light", which is a very important work for him to achieve the 10 billion achievement.

As one of the earliest young directors to follow Director Quan, he has fallen far behind Chen Zhengdao and others.

"The Legend of Sun Wukong" was a hastily produced work, but the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series was something he had been planning since he served as assistant director for Director Quan on the first "Ghost Blows Out the Light". He had already built many mature blueprints in his mind.

……

Han Dongjun is from Hesong and just graduated from the Shanghai Theatre Academy this year. Because of his experience studying abroad, his English is pretty good, so in addition to his representative work "The Left Ear", he has also had some performance experience in Hollywood blockbusters such as "The Dragon Rises".

"The Hunger Games", "Now You See Me 2", and "Pacific Rim 2".

"Now You See Me 2" has grossed over 7 million yuan in the mainland, and "Pacific Rim 2" has easily surpassed 10 billion yuan, and are expected to hit the box office champion for this year's imported films.

But it's 2016 now, and the pay of domestic stars has increased dramatically. It is far less respectable to be a supporting actor in Hollywood than to be the leading actor in China.

Therefore, his work focus will shift to China in the future, so the company helped him get the leading role in "Young Ghost Blows Out the Light", playing the role of Hu Bayi, a young man who went to the countryside.

In "The Monkey King", he collaborated with director Wang Quan's former assistant Jiang Shuying, and in "Young Ghost Blows Out the Light", he collaborated with his assistant, Princess Zhang Tianai.

After Wang Quan finished work, he returned home a little late in the evening and took Xue Fu and Xiao Meng to have a small gathering with his two former assistants Jiang Jiang and Xiao Ai.

Wang Quan did not promise Zhang Tianai the role in "Young Ghost Blows Out the Light". After all, she does not look very rural, and the heroine of this film is a beautiful rural girl.

But since the producer finally chose her, it must be that the work she did satisfied the producer.

Wang Quan had seen her performance in "My Fathers and Me", in which she played a country girl with a big belly, and her acting was really good.

He is very pleased that his assistants have now become popular female stars in the industry. The more popular they are, the more excited he is.

With four assistants, even the iron-clad royal power will become scrap metal.

So he thought he wouldn't go upstairs to disturb Xianmi, and just sleep in the home theater, where the sofa was very comfortable.

But I didn't expect that Yang Mi hadn't slept yet so late, and was still looking for something in the yard with her cell phone?
"Did you lose something?" Wang Quan asked as he came over.

Yang Mi: "No, I'm catching Pokémon."

"Is it the kind of elves that live on the other side of the sea or the ocean?"

On the third floor, Liu Yifei opened the window and said to the people downstairs: "No, Pokémon can also be called Pokémon."

Wang Quan moved closer and saw a game app running on Yang Mi’s phone - Pokémon Go.

Wang Quan sighed: "You're already playing it right after it was released, that's great."

Yang Mi: "It's quite fun, but I've found almost all the Pokémon near our community. I'm thinking about looking for them in the wild." Wang Quan took her hand and said, "I heard that rare Pokémon like to appear in places of interest. Why don't you go to the Forbidden City tomorrow to have a look."

"There are too many people in the Forbidden City. Let's take Xiao Xianmi back to my parents' house tomorrow. Those are all quadrangles left over from the previous dynasties. They can be considered ancient monuments."

"That makes sense," Wang Quan yawned, "Okay, let's go to sleep. It's too late today~"

Yang Mi: "Let's go, Xixi is ready. You didn't see clearly just now, she was wearing JK~"

Wang Quan held his waist and gritted his teeth: "Let's go!"

However, afterwards, Liu Yifei felt that there was obviously not much left. Humph, when she was preparing to get pregnant, she would also ask him to abstain from sex. He couldn't get pregnant with so many babies before, and now he has so little left, he is just sending away a beggar!

……

The Spread incident finally broke out completely, and the media discovered that since September, Korean stars' performances in the mainland have not been approved.

From top to bottom, there has been no substantive or explicit "ban on Korea", but Korean stars have been banned, and the ban has been very thorough.

The online literature master Yue Guan was very happy a while ago. While the novels of other fantasy and fairy tale masters had not been adapted into film and television, the copyrights of many of his novels were bought and TV series were made into them.

Web dramas are also TV dramas, but as it turns out, because the heroines are all Korean stars, all of them have been shelved indefinitely and cannot be released even after filming is completed.

Although he did not invest himself, but invested in actor Zhang Han, this makes him seem too unlucky.

Kim Taeyeon's colleague Yoona even called Wang Quan to complain about this: "I wanted to see you during my performance in Beijing, but now I can't go~"

"Who can you blame? You can only blame yourselves..." Wang Quan stopped there and did not tell Yoona too much about politics. After all, this is not something an idol can influence.

"Just because you can't come to perform doesn't mean you can't come to travel. You're always welcome to come if you want~"

"Okay, I really miss you, Oppa~~"

A single "Oppa" instantly brought the two closer together~
An explosion once again distanced China and South Korea from each other!
Samsung's new Galaxy Note 7 exploded frequently as soon as it was launched on the market. However, Samsung's different treatment of the Chinese market and the European and American markets has caused it to drift further and further away from the mainland market.

Home.

Liu Yifei had just returned from Chen Xiao and Chen Yanxi's wedding and was watching a drama, while Yang Mi was browsing the news and began to care about national affairs.

She sighed, "It feels like the China-ROK relationship is going to be delicate. Fortunately, our company has not used many Korean stars. We don't speak the language. They are just good quality and cheap, but the trouble is enough to make people suffer."

It's not just China and South Korea. The international situation will become more and more chaotic in the future, and the good days of world peace are coming to an end. These will naturally affect the entertainment industry.

Yang Mi, who usually rarely cares about these things, searched for related news for this reason.

This incident actually has a serious impact on Mi Shi. Mi Shi's TV series are marketed in Asia, and Korea is also an important buyer of Mi Shi's dramas.

China now has a ban on South Korea, and correspondingly, the other side will also strictly prohibit Chinese film and television works, which will result in a large loss of income in this regard.

From now on, we can only meet through the network disk.

Wang Quan nodded, and from then on, no more Korean films were introduced to the mainland.

In fact, Korean films have few box office success in mainland China, and the same is true for Chinese films in Korea. However, his Wang Quan's works are still hot-selling in Korea. Take "Parasite" for example, which attracted tens of millions of viewers in Korea for the first time, the only time for a Chinese film.

This incident also had a great impact on the royal power, but between movies and the country, it doesn’t matter whether you are happy or not, of course the country comes first.

Wang Quan and Mimi were discussing state affairs, while Concubine Liu Yi beside them was giggling.

"What are you looking at?" Wang Quan asked.

"Oh, a web drama," Liu Yifei took off one of her headphones, "I think it's from Mishi."

Yang Mi cupped her hands: "Thank you for your support."

Liu Yifei: "No, this is directed by my friend's son. She asked me to send a Weibo post to show her support. After I supported it, I clicked in to watch it, and then I couldn't stop watching it."

"What drama is this? Is your friend's son this old?"

"Well, I met a producer lady during a previous filming. Her son is from Communication University of China."

Yang Mi: "Then I know what drama it is, "Together with You", right? It's starred by Li Ruojia from our company."

Liu Yifei nodded.

A small web drama without a star cast, but very interesting.

Wang Quan remembered that he had watched it too. It seemed to be the TV series with the highest Douban score this year. It was a pity that the third part was born out of failure and resulted in a deformed child.

Wang Quan immediately came over, hugged Liu Yifei, and took off his headphones, "Let's go together."

Just as Yang Mi was about to move over, her cell phone rang and it was an invitation from Wallace Huo.

"What? He and Lin Xinru are serious about this!" Yang Mi looked at the invitation on his phone. The venue was in Bali, and he was too lazy to go. He could just bring the gift money when the time comes. After all, they had acted together in Chinese Paladin 3.

Wang Quan and Liu Yifei didn't care at all, as they were not very familiar with the two of them.

The next day, Wang Quan did not go to the set, but went to the Beijing Zoo with the motion capture actor and found the panda Po who had moved there.

Because it is the panda of Wang Quan's daughter Xiao Yuer, its popularity is the highest among all the pandas in the Beijing Zoo.

However, it will stop accepting customers these days because it needs to cooperate with the filming.

Hao Han is a new actor joining Happy Twist. He is very happy to get the role in Happy Journey, but he never expected to play a panda.

It was only after watching "Lone Moon" that Wang Quan decided to ask this newcomer to give it a try. After all, the kangaroo Gangzi he played can be regarded as a highlight in the history of special effects in Chinese-language films!

(It’s the end of the month, please give me some monthly tickets~)
