China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 278: Customized in eight months, don’t tear it...

"How can you have fun?"

Guan Ling pinched the opponent's buttocks, making them bounce.

"Speaking seriously."

Fan Bingbing patted Guan Ling's hand.

"Your salary is going to go up."

Guan Ling sat down and pulled Fan Bingbing onto him.

"At the meeting, it was made clear that a large amount of funds will be introduced into the film and television industry, and companies will be encouraged to create high-quality blockbusters. Good times for the entertainment industry are now really here."

Fan Bingbing's eyes turned wild after hearing this.

Affectionate.

The other party has something to say.

But there was no smile on his face.

Fan Bingbing was quickly dumbfounded as he listened to Guan Ling talk about the Scarlet Witch and the multiverse.

In fact, regarding the character of Scarlet Witch, Fox has not filmed any independent movies about this character in the previous life, and it has not even appeared in the X-Men.

But in order to make money, why don't you change your role?
Do you still want to consider international influence? Do you still want the Huaxia Market?

After much thought, Guan Lingsi finally settled on the role of Scarlet Witch, played by Omei in her previous life. Marvel has not yet fully developed this character, and Fox has part of the copyright to this character.

"You're such a goblin, you still beat around the bush when you have something to say, right?"

"This year, this year I'll take you to Hollywood."

This is also the best entry point for Guan Ling to intervene in Hollywood's classic copyrights.

"Not only a mutant, but an absolute female mutant, a heroine."

Guan Ling said, "Although Fox currently has the copyright to this character, it has not formed a clear shooting script. My cooperation has given them a good choice."

Guan Ling said, "Gainaote got through to me a while ago. Although I have been cooperating with Lionsgate Films on many new movies these days, I have always let them discuss your arrangements. It's just that the negotiations with Fox are not going to work. It went very well. We have finally reached an agreement. But Fox is not willing to sell all the rights, and is only willing to cooperate in the development, and the investment share of Motian Lingyun can only be a small part.”

Fan Bingbing's eyes suddenly became moist when he heard what Guan Ling said.

But that role is too low.

Even if there is a conflict between Fox and Marvel.

"Tell me, when the time comes, will a young female star like Liu Yifei with huge commercial value in Hollywood be more popular, or a female star like Zhou Xun who won the Best Actor at Cannes and has great acting skills will be more popular?"

"Then what kind of copyright are you talking about? Is it important?" Fan Bingbing asked a question that was beyond his imagination.

Guan Ling decided to take the lead.

And it’s done once and for all.

"If this is the case, does it mean that when ranking female celebrities, they will pay more attention to commercial value?"

"You mean, I will make an independent Hollywood science fiction movie as the protagonist?"

Guan Ling said something casually, and Fan Bingbing suddenly raised his head, "Really?"

Because Guan Ling knows very well that wanting to use his copyright under Marvel and have a say in the movie is nothing more than a dream.

Then use Fox to occupy this role.

She didn't expect that Guan Ling would do so much for her when she didn't know it.

"Why did you lie to me?"

"You've seen The Wolverine, right?"

"Yes. That's what I mean."

"What's the use of telling you? You can go to the United States to negotiate?"

Guan Ling just opened his mouth, and Fan Bingbing's eyes widened immediately, "Copyright for mutants?"

The first thing that appeared in Guan Ling's mind was of course the twinkling female character played by Fan Bingbing in X-Men.

"I have spent a lot of time working as a cow and a horse. When I first started working as a horse, "2012" was still being filmed. Now you, the director, have become famous across the board. You are a well-deserved leader in the Chinese circle at home and abroad. What, this You’re not going to care about me, are you?”

As for the movie content, as long as the plots of "WandaVision" and "Doctor Strange 2" are combined, and Magneto is added, a Marvel blockbuster will be released in an instant.

When Fan Bingbing accumulated enough international influence with this Hollywood blockbuster, and movies like The Avengers, Fan Bingbing became the best choice for this role.

Therefore, this choice can be said to be a blow to the bottom of the pot, which will directly allow Fan Bingbing to gain a foothold in Hollywood.

"Why didn't you tell me this before?"

When Guan Ling was thinking about what roles Fan Bingbing could take in Hollywood that would quickly increase his popularity.

Fan Bingbing put his arms around Guan Ling's neck, slowed down while talking, and touched Guan Ling's ear, making Guan Ling itch.

"I made a lot of money for Lingyun Media."

Guan Ling took a fist and lifted Fan Bingbing's chin.

On the contrary, this character appeared in subsequent Marvel movies such as The Avengers, Vision, and Doctor Strange.

When he looked over again, Fan Bingbing's eyes were already drawn.

"dad."

One word from the other party would make it impossible for Guan Ling to call him.

You haven't even done anything yet, why are you starting to be Scottish?

"Eat first, I'll peel a shrimp for you."

"Director Guan, do you want to eat oysters? I bought them specially this afternoon."

"Scrambled eggs with leeks."

"Lamb kidneys, I asked someone to roast them outside."

"..."

"I'm not telling you, your purpose is quite clear." Guan Ling looked at the table full of delicacies and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Why, you just said that the party was not as fun as me. Are you scared now?"

Fan Bingbing smiled evilly, "I originally thought you had completely forgotten me, Director Guan, but I didn't expect you to be so kind to me, so tomorrow, I think you need to hold on to the wall."

It's still an apron at this time.

The other party said to change into an apron.

When the results came back, it was already a blue and white porcelain dress.

This dress is very close-fitting, just right on top of Fan Bingbing's majesty. It looks like a blue and white porcelain vase from the Song Dynasty. They are a pair of dragon and phoenix.

Guan Ling saw the opponent's front and back curves.

This dress is actually quite similar to a cheongsam, but it doesn't have legs open.

On the contrary, it has a very long tail.

It looks very uncomfortable to wear.

No wonder it took Fan Bingbing so long to change his apron just now.

Guan Ling suddenly realized.

But it's not easy to put on, and it's not easy to take off either.

The other person is already in good shape.

Guan Ling thought about it and could only look through the net from under the long-tailed skirt.

Eat and drink

Let’s get down to business.

Fan Bingbing was extremely proactive because she knew that Guan Ling was planning to make a superhero movie for her alone.

After the successful chorus, Guan Ling looked at the blue and white porcelain dress and felt troubled.

"This was specially made for me by the famous designer Guo Pei, and it took eight months."

Fan Bingbing looked at Guan Ling and said, "I was planning to collect it. Don't tear it up..."

……

A crazy night.

When they woke up the next morning, the two said hello to each other. Fan Bingbing endured the rain hitting his bananas, and his complexion became obviously more rosy.

And this guy has quite a bit of a wolf-like need, so he had some corrections on his acting moves early in the morning.

Guan Ling followed the good and followed the flow.

He is just a bit sage and sleepy.

"Next, I have to work on the promotion of "The Wind" again. I feel that this movie will also be affected by "Avatar"."

After all, it is his own movie, and Fan Bingbing is quite concerned about it.

"Aside from "Avatar," the other thing worth noting is "Sherlock Holmes," which will be released at the end of February."

Guan Ling chose to release it in February, so he naturally knew his opponent well.

Let's not talk about "Su Qier", "Love in the City" is not a big threat, and "Happy Event 2010" is not likely to have a big impact.

Guan Ling remembers that the Hollywood-introduced "Mouse: Star Club" was a hit at the box office.

Not even as good as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf".

"By the way, you must come to the premiere, right?"

Fan Bingbing suddenly asked.

"The premiere is scheduled for February 2th, and many people in the industry should be there by then." Guan Ling said, "If I don't go, who will they look for to cooperate? They will definitely come."

"Then that night..."

"Hold on, there are still people waiting in line." Guan Ling rejected Fan Bingbing's words.

It's not okay to choke the other person.

He kept rolling his eyes at Guan Ling.

……

The aftermath of "Avatar" continues to intensify.

A series of policies were quickly announced.

Many companies are taking action.

Guan Ling received invitations from countless people, but he declined most of them, claiming that he would take advantage of the Spring Festival to shoot the movie "Father".

But the more Guan Ling is not short of money, the more others want to cooperate with him.

The threshold of Lingyun Media is about to be crossed.

As a last resort, Lingyun Media still spoke out, "Although Lingyun Media is currently preparing for listing, the company is still discussing the investment."

Very clear rejection.

Everyone in the industry understands the meaning.

But there is no choice but to envy.

Among the domestic private production companies currently, the one that is least short of money is Lingyun Media.

As long as there is a project, others will send money in large amounts.

……

The promotion of "The Wind" began in full swing.

"The Wind is written by Guan Ling and directed by Chen Guofu. It will be released soon!"

"The main theme of the spy film, the movie version after "Insidious", can it add more tension to this type of film?!"

“Is Lingyun Media’s choice unreasonable for the spy movie to be released during the Spring Festival?”

Some people are questioning it, but when everyone looks at the cast list, Zhou Xun, Fan Bingbing, Huang Xiaoming, Wang Zhiwen, as soon as these people appear, the quality of this movie will not be bad.

What's more, it's screenwriter Guan Ling.

It immediately attracted many fans of the "Insidious" TV series, and they were always ready to watch the movie to support it.

Huang Xiaoming, Fan Bingbing, Zhou Xun and others also started propaganda work everywhere.

Among them, Huang Xiaoming worked particularly hard. As his first movie after leaving Huayi, although Huang Xiaoming was a supporting role in it, he performed very well.

For the sake of publicity, Huang Xiaoming avoided all publicity channels this time.

……

The post-production of "Detective Dee Part 2" has been basically completed.

Tsui Hark called Guan Ling several times and wanted Guan Ling to review the finished film.

Guan Ling promised well, but could never find the time.

The filming of "Father" has reached its final stage. The filming of this movie is not very difficult. In fact, the most difficult part is the acting.

As for the actors' own abilities, Guan Ling selected them with superb abilities.

So overall the progress is very fast.

However, there is a high probability that we will not be able to finish filming before the new year. Guan Ling feels that it will probably take about ten days after the new year before we can get it right.

Coupled with post-production, it is not difficult to catch up with Cannes in May.

Guan Ling knows that Fan Bingbing will also go to Cannes in May, and "Rizhao Forest" has been confirmed to be selected in Cannes.

Wang Xiaoshuai's ability makes it easy to qualify.

……

Liu Yifei has been quite busy recently. After "Rescue 2" was released in China, she and Cheng Long went to Hollywood to promote it.

But his performance in Hollywood was significantly affected.

A bit of a blow to her self-confidence.

"Guan Ling, I watched "Avatar" in the United States."

After returning to China, Liu Yifei went to find Guan Ling, "I was shocked. I really don't know how Cameron produced such special effects."

"What's so surprising?" Guan Ling said, "After "Inception" is completed, you will find that you will also become the object of admiration from others."

"It's a good relationship," Liu Yifei said, "But after "Rescue 2" this time, I feel a little tired of aesthetics. After filming "Rescue 3", do you have any ideas about what movies I want to make next?"

When saying this, Liu Yifei's face became a little hot.

In fact, she didn't want to ask, but after returning to China, Liu's mother forced her to ask this question.

This also made her feel a little abrupt.

But she couldn't defeat Liu's mother.

You can only come and ask.

"Preliminary estimate is that it is a science fiction film."

Guan Ling thought for a while and said, "Since I want to make "Source Code", I just want everyone to know that domestic movies can also make good science fiction movies."

"But in order to ensure future development, I will definitely shoot two Hollywood blockbuster-level science fiction movies. After all, after the release of "Avatar", the industry has also raised doubts about me."

"Have you seen those news too? They are all just for fear of chaos in the world."

Liu Yifei patted Guan Ling. Recently, some people on the Internet did use "Avatar" to push Guan Ling down. After all, this movie almost beat the box office record of Guan Ling's "2012" by almost half.

The forecast is about 14 billion.

In fact, it is now approaching 10 billion, far behind Guan Ling.

In this regard, being pulled and trampled is a normal scene.

Many viewers who are optimistic about foreign films wish that domestic films and domestic directors would die.

Guan Ling knows the diversity of species, so it is not surprising.

"It has nothing to do with the news." Guan Ling looked at Liu Yifei, "I have slacked off a bit since winning Huayi. Although I won the Palme d'Or, the box office of subsequent movies was average. "Rescue 2" won a lot of box office , but after all, it was not shot by me, and it was completely outclassed by "Avatar."

Guan Ling touched Liu Yifei's little face and smiled.

"If I don't move around, people will think that I have exhausted my talents."

"No matter who is talented, you can't do it."

"No." Guan Ling looked at Liu Yifei, "I was bombarded by "Avatar" once, so they thought I was average. These disapproving news are proof. If I didn't bomb them once, they would dare to say anything."
