You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 89 "Juno" is finished, King Quan returns to China (1, guarantee)
Los Angeles International Airport.

When Gadot and Wang Keying arrived together, Wang Quan had already arrived for an hour.

"Why did you come so early?" Gadot hugged Wang Quan without hesitation, and her palms fell on her boyfriend's hips.

Wang Quan, "I just sent my dad away."

Also sent away are contracts with Paramount and IMAX.

Lao Wang finally won the mainland copyright of "Ten Cloverfield Road" with US$50, on the condition that it must be released half a month later in North America.

Although it is still difficult to make money at the box office, after the painting is sold, it can be sold to movie channels, DVDs can be released, and there will be Internet copyrights in the future.

"Ah, Uncle is coming to Los Angeles!" Hearing the news, Gadot felt complicated, didn't he tell others about it.

Wang Quan guessed her thoughts and said with a smile, "Don't be in a hurry, don't you also go to Huaxia during the summer vacation, and we will see each other then."

Yes, we will see each other when the time comes, but I don't have you by my side.

After a while, the secret room team was assembled, and there was another boss, Hussein Hou, accompanying him.

This time everyone is going to the Silicon Valley store in San Francisco, where the six-person team will experience a real escape room, the kind where no one can die.

At the same time, Wang Quan will hire a local film crew to film the real experience of the six people visiting the store, and then arrange for the six of them to open accounts on Youtube, and upload the store-visiting videos edited by professionals in a planned and rhythmic manner. In order to achieve the effect, He also writes the script if necessary, which is also an important part of the promotion of the film.

Of course, the design of the secret room that they were allowed to explore this time must also be completely revised to prevent spoilers for the players.

Because the relationship between King Quan and YouTube is very good, it can guarantee that they can get recommended resources that cannot be obtained from the outside world, so they don't have to worry about traffic.

When he arrives in San Francisco, Wang Quan will also stay in a hotel. His room is next to Gadot and Wang Keying, and Gadot can sleep with whoever he wants.

When I was alone at night, Wang Quan thought that the Hong Kong Film Awards should be awarded, so he checked the Internet, and it was already out. Du Qifeng's "Black Meeting" became the biggest winner, best film, best director, best actor Master, Best Screenplay.

However, Wang Quan paid the most attention to Zhou Xun, who had just left Rong Xinda, and won the best actress for "If Love". Last year, it seemed to be Zhang Ziyi.

It has been two years in a row that the Hong Kong Film Awards have awarded the Best Actress to mainland actresses. It seems that the shortage of actresses in Xiangjiang is already very serious, and only Zhang Bozhi can do it for the younger generation.

Just as Wang Quan was about to search Zhang Bozhi's future works, someone knocked on the door outside. As expected, Jiaduo was going to sleep with him tonight.

When he came to San Francisco, Wang Quan couldn't help thinking of Senior Sister Yu Feihong, so he tried to call her the next day, only to learn that Senior Sister had already finished work and returned to China a week ago.

But she also has good news, "I'm going to Los Angeles soon, and I'm going to study film production in the refresher class of Chapman University's Dodge Film School."

Dodge Academy is very close to Hollywood, Wang Quan said with a smile, "It's a good choice. Dodge Academy is famous for its majors and values ​​practice. Many students go directly to the Big Six after graduation. Our company has an employee from Dodge. If you want to You can also come to us if you want to practice, the door is always open for you.”

"Then I will trouble Brother Quan at that time. I don't need any money, as long as it allows me to quickly understand the work of film production."

"No problem, let's meet again when you come to Los Angeles."

A week later, Wang Quan led the team back to Los Angeles and invested in the post-production of "Escape Room".

At the same time, he will continue to perfect the script of "Juno", and he promised Dorothy to hand over the script before the end of April.

Just when he was busy, Spielberg sent an invitation to visit and guide DreamWorks Animation. Unexpectedly, he still remembered this incident.

After thinking about it, Wang Quan decided to call Julie and Lily. Not only did he visit the production of the 3D animation, but he also observed the pregnant woman. By the way, he could also enhance his relationship with Lily. Perfect!
However, Julie said, "I'm not free, I want to take prenatal education class."

"It's really unexpected that you care so much about the baby, so I'll go with Lily."

Julie laughed, "I'm not going either, you thought Lily would go with you."

Lily, "I'll go, Julie, I can't help you with prenatal care, why don't you go alone."

So when Wang Quan drove away with Lily Collins, Julie felt betrayed for the first time. Girlfriends are not very reliable creatures. Hmph, don't even think about drinking my milk in the future!
DreamWorks Animation is located in Glendale, not far from Los Angeles.

When mentioning DreamWorks Animation, the first thing people think of is "Shrek" and the logo of sitting on the crescent and fishing dreams.

Now DreamWorks has another masterpiece "Madagascar" in addition to Shrek. Lily likes this movie very much, and she is willing to leave her girlfriends and come out with King Quan alone because of this.

In the end, Mr. David King, what did you tell me?
"Lily, have you ever thought about what you would do if you were pregnant at this age?"

Lily glanced at Wang Quan vigilantly, "Mr. Director, do you want to sleep with me?"

I didn't expect that such a well-behaved girl could speak so sharply.

Wang Quan replied calmly, "I don't have this idea for the time being. I just want to have a better understanding of the attitudes of American teenagers towards early pregnancy."

"I think I should kill it, unless the boy loves me very, very much, but there are so many unforgettable loves, it is nothing more than a momentary passion under the influence of hormones."

"I didn't expect you to see so clearly."

"I'm 17 years old."

Wang Quan smiled, "Yeah, it's not considered a minor anymore."

Lily gave him a weird look, he just wanted to sleep with me!
I don't know if it's because she doesn't have the company of her best friend, but in order to give herself courage, Lily looks a little strong and outgoing, which makes Wang Quan see another possibility of this good girl, not bad, not bad, I like it more and more.

When they arrived at DreamWorks Animation, an Asian man came out to greet them. He wore glasses and was not tall, estimated to be only 1.6 meters. He spoke Mandarin with a Hong Kong accent and seemed very gentle.

"Hi David, I'm Xu Chengyi. You can also call me Raman. Mr. Spielberg specially asked me to receive you. We are all Chinese, so it is easier to communicate."

Wang Quan asked, "Hi Laman, are you the director of the crew of "Kung Fu Panda"?"

"Oh no, I'm actually the director of "Shrek 3", and I have nothing to do with the Kung Fu Panda crew." He pushed his glasses.

During the conversation, the three of them had already entered, the company can see the elements of the characters in the movie everywhere, the Shrek couple are well-deserved main coffees, and their friends talking donkey and puss in boots.

And the four African animal friends from Madagascar and a few penguin bandits have also occupied a place in the company since the fire last year. In addition, there are some characters in second-tier movies such as Chicken Run and Shark Story.

With Lily by his side, Wang Quan freed his hands and handed over the work of taking pictures to her. It would be fine to copy the photos when the time came. Let him help himself when the time comes.

At the moment, Wang Quan's curiosity about Xu Chengyi has surpassed that of "Kung Fu Panda". There is something about a Chinese director in the sequel of DreamWorks' trump card animation.

During the conversation, Wang Quan learned that Xu Chengyi was born in Xiangjiang. In order to get closer, he also revealed that he and the current famous Chinese director Chen Kexin were kindergarten classmates.

Wang Quan said with a smile, "Director Xu is also a famous director with such a heavyweight project as "Shrek 3" in his hand."

He quickly waved his hands, "It's also the first time I've led such a big project, how can I be a famous director?"

Xu Chengyi joined DreamWorks almost at the beginning of its founding, and has been working for nearly 20 years. He was the character designer in the first part of "Shrek", and those classic characters were largely created by him. The second film was an animation director, and in the third film he was finally upgraded to one of the co-directors. The performance of this film is very important to him, and he cannot afford to miss it.

"Kung Fu Panda started from scratch, which is much more difficult than ours. Our two crews started the project at the same time. "Shrek 3" will be released next year, and "Kung Fu Panda" may have to wait until the year after next."

Wang Quan nodded. One of the advantages of 3D animation is that it saves time and effort when making sequels. As long as there are not a large number of new characters that appear, everything is easy to say.

Later, Xu Chengyi introduced Kung Fu Panda director Mark Osborne to Wang Quan. Mark immediately asked Wang Quan for his opinion on the image of Po. Central giant panda.

Wang Quan's face turned red immediately, "Damn, I haven't been there either!"
As for the image of A Bao, Wang Quan definitely thinks that any virtual panda image made by humans is not as fresh and cute as a real panda, but the staff of DreamWorks have obviously also conducted in-depth observations on giant pandas. Po is cute, real and personable all at the same time.

If the animal cartoon characters are completely like real animals, it will be a failure, because it is easy to be pirated. Only such animal characters with distinctive and unique images are the killer of derivative business.

He also quietly asked Xu Chengyi whether Shrek earns more from buying toys or making more money at the box office. This question does not involve confidentiality. He answered directly and straightforwardly, "The box office is definitely not as good as Shrek's toys. Our toys Good buy."

Wang Quan was speechless when he heard this. The derived value of a big-selling animated movie far exceeds that of a live-action movie, and because of its cartoonish image, animated movies can ignore differences in race or even species, which is more conducive to global dissemination.

Alas, it's great to make an animated film!Go back and write an animation script by yourself, or simply draw a comic.

This time, Wang Quan and Lily returned with a full load. When they returned, the back seat of the car was filled with various cartoon dolls, and Lily said that there was also Julie in it.

After sending Lily to Julie's house, seeing her excitedly hugging the toy, Wang Quan said, "Lily, actually, you can consider auditioning for the role of Juno."

"what?"

Wang Quan, "I mean, you are one of my candidates. Although you are not the most promising one, Lindsay Lohan and Emma Watson who are about your age are all staring at my book, but you You really might as well try it.”

~
He also kept a part of the toy royal power that came from DreamWorks, and he planned to give it to Gadot, but he didn't know if his female man who wields knives and guns liked it or not.

"I like it very much, the little fish Oscar in the Shark Gang, this face is really similar to Will Smith."

Wang Quan laughed and said, "This is what he played. He designed this image after deciding on his role."

"No wonder, hey, what are you drawing, is this a capsule?"

Wang Quan laughed, "I'm thinking about whether I can make money from comics, by the way, how about we go surfing in Santa Monica tomorrow."

"Do you know?"

"No, this is for you," Wang Quan sniffed Gadot's hair, "I want to go through all the things you usually play, and I will ask you to take me to rock climbing in the future, but are you more serious? Do you like rock climbing or surfing more?"

Gadot leaned into Wang Quan's arms, "It's hard to say, is this question very important?"

"Of course, this is related to what kind of script I want to write for you~"

Before the end of the month, Wang Quan put the script on Dorothy's desk, "Boss Tao, please inspect the product."

Dorothy frowned, "Why is it so thick?"

Then she was surprised to find out, "Why are there three scripts!"

Wang Quan put away the thinnest one, "I'm sorry, this is an exclusive script written for Gadot, it's not finished yet, these two are "Juno"."

"Two Junos?"

"Yes, one is "Juno" that I imagine Americans will like, and I completed it independently, and the other is "Juno" that I completed according to my own ideas with the assistance of Ma Ling."

Dorothy weighed the script, "You really are fast enough. I thought it would be great to finish one script at the end of the month, but I didn't expect it to be two!"

It's nothing, the other one is purely copying, and it won't take much time.

Dorothy, "But why did you write two of the same story!"

"The characters are different. This one's Juno is tougher, this one is softer, but Xin'er is tougher. Because of different personalities, there are different laughing points, and some plots are different. The key is the difference in the final ending. , " Wang Quan suggested, "You might as well turn to the ending directly."

For the first time to make such a big change to the original work, Wang Quan was not sure, so he just wrote two and let the producer make a decision.

Dorothy turned to the ending of one of the scripts suspiciously, "I may need some time to read it."

Wang Quan, "Okay, I'll go outside... Oh, I have a call, go outside and answer it."

Outside the door, Wang Quan said to the phone, "Hmm, I'm sorry, I... Well, this Saturday, I will try to find time to go back, but please don't publicize it in advance, or I may not be able to go back, when the time comes It’s not good to lose faith in others, ummm~”
