China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

[After revision: 4800 words!!!]

“My idea is to break $1 billion worldwide.”

"Mainland China has secured the top spot in the current film and television box office!"

At the premiere, as Guan Ling finished speaking, the entire scene came to a halt.

Speaking of which, Guan Ling's previous highest box office results were "Inception" and "2012", with the two films grossing US$9.12 million and US$8.3 million respectively.

In addition, there is the "Twilight" series he filmed in Hollywood, but because "Twilight" did not let Chinese people act, Guan Ling just let Mo Tian Ling Yun make money from it, but Guan Ling himself did not receive much attention.

Basically, the original version was maintained, and a tool person was hired to take the photos for me.

The highest box office of the four films was $8.2 million, which was created by the fourth part, Part .

The second part had a box office of 7.7 million US dollars, the third part had a box office of 7.9 million US dollars, the first part just broke 11 million US dollars, and the second half of the fourth part will continue to wreak havoc and land in Hollywood around November.

Meier, who wrote "Twilight", had a good cooperation with Skyrim and had the priority signing rights for subsequent content when selling the copyright of the first film. Therefore, these films are basically part of the cooperation between Skyrim and Lionsgate Films.

Lionsgate Films has also invested in the fourth film, which is about to be released.

As for the first three films, basically there was no complete agreement on the cooperation. Lionsgate Films watched Guan Ling printing money for the first two films, but for the third and the first part of the fourth film, Guan Ling gave up some of his shares.

We can’t let Lionsgate Films run around for channels, distribution, and publicity only to end up with nothing.

Guan Ling has never been someone who is unwilling to give up his interests, but he just doesn't want to be a sucker.

Guan Ling previously sold the copyright and script of "The Hunger Games" to Lionsgate at ten times the price, and also had a share in it. Overall, there are many mutual benefits for both parties.

But these matters were all handled by Frank and Guy Naut. Just to avoid problems in the company, after the cooperation deepened a little, Guan Ling recruited several Chinese to be stationed in Skyscraper.

But Guan Ling herself did not publicize this news much.
For example, the "Twilight" series has also been released in China, but Guan Ling knows that this type of movie is not very popular in China, so he never attends premieres and never promotes it in an exaggerated way.

Since there are no Chinese actors in these films, there is naturally no involvement of China Asset Management, so Guan Ling did not talk much about it.

If Guan Ling really had to do everything himself, he would have died of exhaustion long ago.

In fact, Guan Ling himself was not very interested in the Twilight series, so he did not shoot the first one himself. He only remembered the general process of the heroine.

It's just an ordinary girl → a girl who is obsessed with sex → a girl who plays with werewolves and vampires → a married woman → an unsatisfied young woman → a pregnant woman → an old pregnant woman → a mummy → a vampire,
This is the life of the heroine Bella!
Moreover, Guan Ling is quite clear that the popularity of this movie is basically closely related to the rise of women's status abroad.

Guan Ling doesn't mind the rise of women. On the contrary, she is very supportive of it. After all, she has invested real money to support the movie. If we analyze the content of the first part and even the later parts, the first part is like "A domineering president is coming after me", and in the following parts the heroines become stronger and stronger, and the hero even becomes an obstacle to the heroine.

Even the heroine Bella turned into a scumbag.

Speaking of this, it’s the same for both men and women.

This world is just a huge makeshift team. Rich people pursue the satisfaction of their desires and always like to do things that are bound by moral constraints, even some that are perverted.

Isn't Loli Island originated from this unexpressible desire?
There is also Yi Jianlian's battle against the upside-down man.

James smiled and wore a maid outfit.

Quentin kissed a stripper's toes for half an hour in a nightclub...

Some habits are not only down-to-earth, they are even down-to-earth.

Guan Ling has been in Hollywood for such a long time, and has seen the stars ten thousand times, except for Heard and Black Widow. As for other actresses, some of them are also very beautiful, but Guan Ling is afraid that they are sick.

As for these two, at least when Guan Ling used them, not only did he have measures in place, but they were still young. And later generations also proved that they did not have any serious illnesses.

As for Zhang Ziyi, Guan Ling refused to touch her at first. Later, she made a medical examination report three or four times, which probably included all the medical examination results of the past two years.

Guan Ling then tasted the saltiness.

It was Zhang Ziyi who tasted it first.

In fact, no matter it is the trend of women watching movies or the trend of female stars meeting Guan Ling, no matter in the cinema or in various places, Guan Ling has always been very respectful to female audiences.

Making money and desire are two things that are not shabby!

The entertainment industry is an industry that is quite close to money, so hot money naturally not only ushers in the peak heat wave of the industry, but also brings about the passion of both men and women, as long as it is not abnormal.

Are there any good people in the entertainment industry who have positive values ​​and practice monogamy?

some.

But it is very difficult to find a dragonfly in the manure pit, there are only flies.

Having said that, although the audience respects a large number of female audiences in Hollywood,
However, if this group of people want to use their own real money to shake Guan Ling's script, Guan Ling will never respond with a word. I will do my own thing and you can do it if you can.

It can be regarded as a good lesson for female audiences around the world.

Countless experiences in later generations have proved that even if Guan Ling changed, they would still be judged.

But today, Guan Ling has invested a lot of effort in the movie "Scarlet Witch", which was written by Guan Ling, directed by Guan Ling, starred by Fan Bingbing, and jointly produced by Warner DC, Marvel Studios, Skyrim, and Lionsgate Films.

It’s not because this movie is also a women’s movie, but because this movie is Guan Ling’s real attempt at a magical change.

And it is a major overhaul.

The magical changes are derived from the Netflix TV series "WandaVision", which is dedicated to the story of Scarlet Witch, and "Doctor Strange 2022: The Multiverse of Madness" which will be released in 2.

It can even be said that this is a Hollywood-style superhero movie created by Guan Ling himself according to the Hollywood narrative structure.

The plot rhythm is done completely in accordance with the classic Hollywood heroic narrative structure: origin, growth, and confrontation trilogy narrative.

For example, "Iron Man 123", "The Animated Film Nezha: The Devil Child is Born", "Inside Out", and even "Wolf Warrior" and "Wolf Warrior 2", all have a classic progressive narrative structure.

In "Scarlet Witch", Guan Ling combines the comic background of Scarlet Witch and Fan Bingbing's personal role potential.
According to the memory of her story, it is deepened into a two-part structure of "origin + growth", focusing on the awakening of her power and the redemption of chaos.

The multiverse, the foreshadowing of mutants, the magical recognition between Magneto and Wanda, and Doctor Strange's faceless cameo,

Even Mephisto, the remaining pages of the Darkhold, laid the groundwork for the introduction of Ghost Rider.

All in all, the plot is magical and brilliant, much more gorgeous than "Iron Man" and "Captain America".

According to the common name of the first Hollywood superhero blockbuster, the translated version of this movie is called "Scarlet Witch: Chaos Origin".

Guan Ling's voice caused the whole place to fall into silence.

Following the host's arrangement, Fan Bingbing came on stage.

“Meeting Director Guan is my greatest luck.”

On the stage, Fan Bingbing's first words triggered a frenzy of photo-taking by the journalists below.

The female stars below were all filled with envy, jealousy, and even a little disappointed.

No matter who you are, if you can meet Director Guan and be valued by him, it is the greatest luck.

Yang Mi whispered: "You are really good at showing off. Didn't you just go to Hollywood to make a superhero movie?"

Mother Liu looked at Liu Yifei and asked in a low voice: "Is Fan Bingbing married?"

"No, what's wrong?" Liu Yifei asked curiously.

"So she doesn't have a boyfriend either?"

"At least not on the surface." Liu Yifei already knew what her mother wanted to say.

"Alas, my physique is indeed better than yours." Liu's mother curled her lips reluctantly, giving Liu Yifei a fatal blow.

"Don't talk about me. You weren't good enough when you were young." Liu Yifei also started attacking her mother with her figure.

"But the faces of the three of us are the same," said Liu's mother.

"I don't agree with what you said." Liu Yifei said, "I agree that I am the ugliest in my family, but compared with Fan Bingbing, if we only talk about appearance, she can't do it."

At home, Liu Yifei is the younger one, but outside, Liu Yifei will not tolerate her bad habits.

With the best looks, who’s afraid of who? !

Then, Fan Bingbing talked about the story behind the filming of this movie.

“Before, some people said that superhero movies are easy to make because when you see foreigners acting, it feels easy and their acting is more natural.

It wasn’t until the actual shooting that I realized it wasn’t easy.

Basically, a lot of the scenes were shot with green screens, which made it very difficult to get into the role. In addition, due to the magic attacks, I often couldn’t follow the plot during the filming. Fortunately, when I was in the United States, Director Guan was very attentive to me and taught me step by step, so I was able to shoot this movie. For this, I must thank Director Guan very much.”

Basically, we didn't talk about anything specific.

That's when she said she would teach you one by one.

Many actresses below were silent, even Liu's mother was silent.

Be obedient and listen to the sound.

The so-called Hollywood teaching handful by handful, the key is where to teach, these handfuls of quantity standards, when and where to use it?

Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

Soon, the movie will be officially released.

The young Wanda played by Fan Bingbing is a girl who was adopted by Americans because of some smuggling cases. Her younger brother Pedro was also adopted with her.

This character is a random Chinese person found in the United States.

Guan Ling was actually also hesitating whether to find a mainland actor to play this role.

Fan Bingbing was able to play the leading role because she is well-known to a certain extent, and her looks are attractive not only in mainland China, but also in North America, Japan, South Korea and Europe.

Male celebrities are different.

Unless he is as handsome as Leonardo.

And this character died too quickly, so Guan Ling let Guy Naoto deal with it directly.

The movie plot continues to air.

However, during the war, he lost his parents due to an unexploded "Stark Industries" missile and was trapped in the ruins for two days.

It vividly reflects the technological original sin of Stark Industries.

In the midst of fear, Wanda erupted with chaos magic skills for the first time, but was captured by Hydra agents. The foreshadowing of Magneto was hidden in it, which also hinted that this magical skill is actually the same as the X-gene that everyone who has read the comics knows, the X-Men, played by Li Bingbing before.

The Hydra organization used Loki's scepter, also known as the Mind Stone, to activate Wanda's chaos magic. However, during the experiment, Fan Bingbing developed schizophrenia and frequently saw visions of the "Scarlet Witch".

In this plot, many people at the premiere were surprised at Guan Ling's integration into Hollywood movies.

Moreover, during this process, there were scenes that were familiar to the audience. Fan Bingbing, in the pain of schizophrenia, contributed a similar peak of acting skills as in "Apple", and it seemed that she was really in pain and lost her voice.

There were even countless close-ups and flashbacks of facial expressions, in which Fan Bingbing's red witch illusion was so handsome that countless audiences at the scene were almost speechless.

And Fan Bingbing's magic skills are too powerful.

It was so fierce that the audience was dumbfounded.

"If he were to fight Iron Man or Captain America, wouldn't he be defeated instantly?!"

If we only look at her skills, Scarlet Witch is so powerful that it is impossible to even describe it in words. With just a snap of her fingers, the opponent disappears.

Judging from the plot alone, Scarlet Witch actually has two abilities. The first is chaos magic skills, and the second is probability modification. However, the second one has been banned for some reason.

The movie directly tells the audience that Scarlet Witch has been weakened.

But even after being weakened, it is still ridiculously strong.

When Fan Bingbing was surrounded and chased by a large number of people, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then those people pointed their guns at her own people.

The scene was filled with exclamations of surprise.

"So handsome, so damn handsome!" some fans of Fan Bingbing cheered.

The best thing about superhero movies is that even though it’s tiring for the actors, the effect is there, and it’s fucking awesome!
In the following plot, the audience surprisingly discovered that many familiar figures from "The Avengers" began to appear.

Wanda joined Ultron and witnessed the destruction of Sokovia.

Fan Bingbing's obsession with home is fully demonstrated.

Later, Fan Bingbing defected to the Avengers.

The person communicating with Fan Bingbing was actually Chris Evans, the actor who played Captain America!

When the audience saw Chris Evans, the venue almost exploded! "The Avengers" has just been released for four months, and with a cost of 2.2 million US dollars, it has pried 15.9 billion US dollars in box office worldwide.

The current popularity of "Captain America" ​​is not just a little bit different from that of the independent film period.

Suddenly there was a commotion below.

"Does this mean that Chinese people can play the powerful roles of Marvel superheroes?!"

"Fuck, it's now completely settled that Fan Bingbing will be starring in Avengers 2."

"I really want to see if they can fight!"

"Fan Bingbing, hurry up and beat up Evans!"

"Did you see Evans' pants? They're so fucking big!" An audience member at the premiere whispered nearby.

But there is one thing that everyone knows clearly.

Marvel Studios joined the production of this film, and Guan Ling even asked Marvel to incorporate the copyright of his flagship Avengers into the plot, which shows that both parties have reached a complete agreement on this film.

A sense of magic suddenly came over me.

Afterwards, Wanda resonated with the Mind Stone and began to sense Vision's inner humanity. The two discussed in the laboratory whether artificial life had souls. This section was somewhat similar to the conversation between Tony and Jarvis in "Iron Man", deepening the philosophical collision between technology and magic.

Afterwards, Quicksilver sacrificed himself, and Wanda went berserk and destroyed the Ultron Army, but accidentally killed civilians because of loss of control.

This is to set the stage for the dangerous nature of its power.

But this period of rampage and killing does demonstrate Wanda's power, and the special effects are even more gorgeous than the previous "Aquaman"!

After the battle, Evans invited Wanda to join the Avengers to save the world.

But Wanda decided to heal her wounds.

While living in seclusion in Norway, Wanda tried to use chaos magic to repair the remains of Vision, but accidentally triggered the projection of the Darkhold.

Agatha's narration began to guide.

The book contains an illusion that "children need mothers", Wanda sees Billy and Tommy in her dream, but the pages show "Mephisto's Contract".

Wanda sealed the book, but the post-credits scene showed the pages turning automatically, revealing the Illuminati surveillance scene in Universe 838.

……

When the movie ends.

Han Sanpin looked at Wendi Deng beside him and asked, "What do you think of this movie?"

Wendi Deng is the first of the world's top ten super-rich wives. She is the wife of News Corporation boss Murdoch. News Corporation is the parent company of Fox.

She came back to the mainland to travel during this period and bought a courtyard house to the east of the Forbidden City.

Han Sanpin invited her to witness Guan Ling's new movie.

Wendi Deng was silent for a moment.

He smiled and said, "Boss Han, do you know how Hollywood used to evaluate the Chinese mainland's film market?"

"What do you mean?" Han Sanpin asked curiously.

"When I was at Fox, I occasionally talked about Chinese films. They called Chinese films entertainment wasteland."

"Wasteland?"

"Yes, it's more like the wild land we call." Wendi Deng smiled.

Han Sanpin didn't say anything, because he knew that Wendi Deng hadn't finished speaking.

Wendi Deng raised her head and spoke word by word.

"And now, the monster from the entertainment wasteland is about to land in Hollywood." (End of this chapter)
