Huayu 97: The Beginning of a Marriage Fraudulently

Chapter 282 Chen Siyuan's film is strongly linked to the Olympics.

"Brother, can we try a big project like this too?"

Wang Zhonglei's eyes turned red.

Who wouldn't want a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars?
"Do you think Huayi Brothers can afford to go through all that trouble? During this period of preparing for the IPO, stability is the key!"

Although Wang Zhongjun was envious, he remained clear-headed.

Wang Zhonglei gritted his teeth after being rejected by Wang Zhongjun, "Brother, Enlight Media is also preparing for an IPO, how dare they?"

“Enlight Media is preparing to list on NASDAQ in the United States. Now, its collaboration with Miramax and Universal to produce a big-budget film is very likely part of their plan!”

Wang Zhongjun spoke slowly.

Wang Zhonglei had a sudden realization. "Damn it, at first I wondered how they dared to list on NASDAQ. The Americans wouldn't recognize our films, and Enlight Media was definitely going to suffer this time. Now I realize Chen Siyuan was playing a long game!"

“How could a top American lawyer make such a mistake? You have to understand that Chen Siyuan grew up in the United States, and he knows the situation there very well!”

Wang Zhongjun had no choice but to admit defeat.

Chen Siyuan's moves sometimes seem inexplicable at first, but you can gradually see the subtlety in them.

One by one!
The Wang brothers then discussed the matter for a long time.

The film "Dunhuang Code: The Light of the Silk Road" made the Wang brothers feel deeply threatened.

Meanwhile, the crew of "Dunhuang Code: Light of the Silk Road" also arrived in Dunhuang.

The Gobi Desert around Dunhuang is vast and desolate.

The desert chase will be a minor climax in the movie.

There will be a thrilling desert chase between Leonardo DiCaprio and the poachers.

Hollywood action directors and lighting directors are working hard to design the relevant action sequences.

Leonardo DiCaprio, wearing a Western cowboy hat, was drinking water on the side.

The weather here is too hot; even simple acclimatization training requires a lot of physical exertion.

However, Leonardo DiCaprio persevered.

After all, even Liu Yifei, a young girl, didn't complain about the hardship or fatigue.

"Leonardo, you can actually use a stunt double."

Leonardo DiCaprio's assistant tried to persuade him.

Leonardo DiCaprio shook his head. "Do you know why I can never win an Oscar?"

The assistant opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

“Mr. Jack told me that I need to gradually change people’s impressions of me. This is not something that can be done overnight; it needs to start now!”

Leonardo DiCaprio largely agrees with Chen Siyuan's views.

Being too handsome is the original sin.

To gain recognition for his acting skills, he cannot rely excessively on stunt doubles.

The assistant had no choice but to accompany Leonardo DiCaprio as he sweated profusely.

After all, he was taking money from Leonardo DiCaprio.

"Medical staff! Come quick, someone has heatstroke!"

Such sounds are always present at the training site.

Despite extensive preparations, unexpected events are still inevitable.

Chen Siyuan looked at Liu Yifei, who was training, with some heartache under the scorching sun.

Sometimes Chen Siyuan really doesn't want to keep going; Liu Yifei is good enough for him now.

A Cannes Film Festival Best Actress and Golden Globe Best Actress winner, she's considered one of the top actresses among Chinese actresses.

However, seeing Liu Yifei's somewhat stubborn face, Chen Siyuan still gave in.

All they could do was continue to protect Liu Yifei and charge forward.

not enough!
Liu Xiaoli felt the same way.

But she understood Liu Yifei.

She has already reached the top of the industry and knows the effort required to reach it. Compared to others, Liu Yifei is already much luckier.

Therefore, Liu Xiaoli's job was to quietly provide logistical support.

When he has free time, he also learns a few techniques from the physiotherapists arranged by Chen Siyuan.

Chen Siyuan even arranged a physiotherapist for his goddaughter, so naturally he arranged the best physiotherapist team for his biological daughter as well.

In addition to the physical therapists originally assigned to Liu Yifei's team, an entire professional team was arranged to ensure the safety and well-being of the crew.

They have perfected the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

This is why the production crew faces numerous problems every day, yet remains organized and efficient.

Just solve the problem.

"Director Zhang, how much longer do you think we need to train before we can start filming?"

Chen Siyuan found Zhang Yimou.

Zhang Yimou revealed a farmer-like smile, "I also want to start and finish quickly, after all, there's a lot to do with the Olympic opening ceremony, but I estimate it will take a few more days."

Zhang Yimou was the chief director of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics; this was a political task!

If Chen Siyuan hadn't solved several problems for Zhang Yimou regarding the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games and gained the understanding of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, Zhang Yimou wouldn't have been able to take on this film.

Chen Siyuan nodded; the harshness of the Gobi Desert in Dunhuang exceeded his expectations.

They had to ensure everything was perfect before starting the actual filming.

"Jack, want a drink?"

At that moment, Spielberg also came over with a glass of chilled wine.

Grapes, fine wine, and a luminous cup.

The wines in Dunhuang are very authentic, all specially supplied by the local cultural and tourism bureau. Although they are not well-known, they taste really good.

Spielberg was won over; he felt uncomfortable if he didn't drink a few sips every day.

Chen Siyuan accepted the wine and clinked glasses with Spielberg.

"How's the matter of becoming an advisor for the Beijing Olympics going?"

Upon hearing Chen Siyuan's question, Zhang Yimou, who was standing next to him, also perked up his ears.

The Beijing Olympics Organizing Committee wanted to create an international Olympics, so they came up with the idea of ​​inviting a big-name foreign director to serve as an advisor.

Spielberg was one of the targets.

Chen Siyuan lobbied Zhang Yimou to direct "Dunhuang Code: The Light of the Silk Road," and the Olympic Organizing Committee also entrusted Chen Siyuan to lobby Spielberg.

In the original timeline, this was nothing but a farce.

But now that Chen Siyuan has joined, it may actually become a reality.

Spielberg raised his glass. "Jack, since you've asked, being a consultant is definitely no problem!"

Zhang Yimou understood, and then smiled and extended his hand, "Mr. Spielberg, welcome to the team!"

"Shall we have a drink together?"

Spielberg laughed.

"Of course!"

Zhang Yimou happily took a glass of chilled wine.

The actors were sweating profusely under the scorching sun, while they were enjoying chilled wine. I felt inexplicably guilty!

Hahaha!
When news of Spielberg's acceptance of the role of advisor for the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics reached the Organizing Committee, it greatly increased the committee's positive impression of Chen Siyuan.

Chen Siyuan is reliable!

Officials from the Organizing Committee made a special trip to Dunhuang and signed a cooperation agreement with Spielberg.

They wouldn't dare promote it without Spielberg's signature.

People were surprised to find that the director of "Dunhuang Code: Light of the Silk Road" was the same person who directed the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics!
If you say this has nothing to do with Chen Siyuan, who would believe you!

Chen Siyuan is terrifying.
