director of the millennium

Chapter 102 "The Hangover" was successful, and the production of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was completed!
"Find Xueyou to play Nie Wen?" Zhang Guorong hesitated for a moment, and then showed a dazed expression.

Yes!

He is very suitable!
Although Zhang Xueyou became famous for his singing and was named the Four Kings of Music in Hong Kong Island, he has also developed well in the film field.

Moreover, he can be regarded as a golden supporting role in the Hong Kong Island film circle.

He played many classic supporting roles.

For example, Brother Wuying in "Carmen in Mong Kok" is the source of the emoji of "Shit, you".

There are also Ouyang Quan, a thousand households in Dongchang in "Swordsman", Wai Zai in "Days of Being Wild", Ya Casu in "Once Upon a Time", Hong Qigong in "East and West" etc……

He has been nominated 6 times for Best Supporting Actor in the Academy Awards alone and won 2 times.

It wasn't until 2001, five years after he took a break from filming, that he returned to play the leading role in "Forty Men", and then he started to stop playing supporting roles and focus on the leading role.

However, he hasn't made a new movie for two years after "The Man Is 2". If I approached him with the script of "If Love", I might be able to convince him to star in it.

Seeing that Wu Yuan suggested Zhang Xueyou to play Nie Wen, Zhang Guorong let go of his heart. He felt that he had misunderstood Wu Yuan before and accepted his explanation.

"He's really suitable." Zhang Guorong nodded in agreement.

"How about it? Consider signing with my company, and this movie will be shot for you." Wu Yuan said with a smile: "And there will be better scripts for you to shoot in the future."

"You may not believe it, but in my opinion, the script of "If Love" is just average, and I will definitely write better scripts for you in the future."

"I believe it." Zhang Guorong looked at Wu Yuan seriously.

When other people said this, he would only think it was bragging, but when Wu Yuan said this, Zhang Guorong believed it.

Because Wu Yuan has been known for his ability to write scripts since his debut, and the scripts of several movies are very good.

Zhang Guorong may not be able to write a script like "The Undertaker" in another ten years.

"Let me seriously consider this matter." Zhang Guorong took back the script of "If Love", "Do you mind if I take this script back?"

He must go back and discuss with Tang Sheng about joining the Light and Shadow Era.

However, he is personally inclined to join, not because the light and shadow era is so good, this company is just a new company that has just been established.

The main reason is that Wu Yuan is a great boss. He is protected by China Film Group in the Mainland. He is even a guest of six guests in Hollywood and can direct a Hollywood super A-level blockbuster with an investment of over [-] million US dollars!
His contacts have directly opened up both sides of the ocean, and he was able to win awards in Europe. It can be said that the world's film market has opened up to him.

If you follow him, you might be able to get into Hollywood. This is a benefit that no director or even a film company in the country can give you.

Zhang Guorong is not short of money, but he really lacks such an upward path.

The two of them chatted about the script for a while. Wu Yuan knew that this matter could not be decided in a short while, so he gave up on it.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, it was almost time, and the two of them left Houhai together.

When passing the Yinding Bridge again, Wu Yuan stopped on the top of the bridge, put his hands on the edge of the bridge, looked at the lake surface wrinkled by the breeze, and said lightly: "Zhang Sheng, let's make a decision as soon as possible."

"In China now, since joining the WTO, everything has been on the fast track."

"Like Houhai, there are only a few bars now, but in a year there will be [-] or [-] bars opening here."

"It's the same with the film industry, it's all moving fast and changing every day."

"Time waits for no one."

After chatting with Zhang Guorong all afternoon, Wu Yuan returned to the work of drama rehearsal.

Under Wu Yuan's hands-on teaching and repeated rehearsals, the acting skills of several main actors have improved significantly.

The pre-production work of "Your Name" has also officially started.

The production team is composed of more than 20 company employees who were sent by Wu Yuan to the "Pirates of the Caribbean" production team for further training and then returned, and [-] or [-] staff members seconded from the Beijing Film Studio, and the formation is considered complete.

Industrial Light and Magic, in accordance with Wu Yuan's requirements, is already doing early special effects design.

Mayday is also working day and night to create dubbing for "Your Name", and will send demos to Wu Yuan as soon as he has something to gain.

Everything is going on steadily and orderly.

When the time came to the end of May, not only the rehearsal of "Romeo and Juliet" had achieved the most perfect state that several actors could show, but also two good news came from the other side of the ocean.

The first good news is that the North American box office of "The Hangover" has exceeded 2 million U.S. dollars. Although the film's stamina has almost come to an end, Light Times can't handle overseas releases.

But the 2 million box office in North America alone is enough for Wu Yuan to make a lot of money, and John is also hesitant to laugh. The 3% box office share allows him to directly realize financial freedom.

After that, there will be sales of overseas distribution rights, sales of DVD copyrights, etc., which can also bring a considerable amount of income to Optical Times.

Although the money will not arrive until next year at the earliest, John, who received the good news, can't wait to buy a good property for his family.

He even strongly recommended Wu Yuan to buy a house in the famous Beverly Hills in Los Angeles.

This was originally the most prestigious award-winning event center in Hollywood, and superstars from all over the world have purchased properties here.

Michael Jackson, Madonna, Britney Spears, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and others all own luxury houses here, and the domestic brother Cheng Long also owns a house in Beverly Hills.

John thought that his boss, as one of the well-known directors in Hollywood, and now an independent film production company, should also be equipped with a house in Beverly Hills to be worthy of his status!
John was more active than Wu Yuan, and even took the initiative to scout for him, choosing a mansion on the hillside of Beverly Hills.

This house has a construction area of ​​1.8 square feet (more than 1670 square meters), and covers an area of ​​1 acre, which covers an area of ​​more than 4000 square meters. We are waiting for Wu Yuan to come to the United States when he comes to see the house.

But the price is a bit expensive, nearly 3000 million US dollars.
Who said that Americans don't care about real estate and don't speculate in real estate?
Hearing about this, Wu Yuan scolded John on the phone. The house with an area of ​​more than 4000 square meters is not called a mansion but a manor!
What did he buy it for?He cannot stay in the United States for more than a few months a year!
But Wu Yuan was really moved, and asked John to help him look at other properties for sale in Beverly Hills. It doesn't need to be too big, as long as it has an area of ​​[-] to [-] square meters.

Well, he is also a little bit flustered. The box office of the movies I have produced and produced has reached 2 million US dollars. Can't I enjoy it?

Every time he comes to the United States, he stays in a hotel, and he is tired of staying there. It would be great to have a house of his own!

In addition, the second good news is that the post-production of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has come to an end.

The special effects production of this film started before the film was launched. After the film was launched, the special effects team followed the group all the way, and after finishing, it did post-production synthesis and rendering. It has been completed by 90%.

It is expected to be completed in the later stage by June.

Disney is rushing to release this fantasy adventure blockbuster in the summer, attracting a large number of young high school and college students to the cinema.

So this movie should be released in mid-July, and various preheating promotions have already been carried out in North America.

Before the release, Disney plans to hold a grand premiere for this movie in their Disneyland. The premiere date has been set, July 7th!
After receiving the notice, Wu Yuan must go to the United States to attend the premiere before July 7th!
