Chapter 612: The Most Luxurious Ever
(The third update, please book!)
The RV from Rongcheng to Dayi.
"No, that's it done?" Fu Luo asked in a uncertain question as he looked at the direction that had disappeared for three days and reappeared.
"What else can it be? That guy is so cowardly and dares to blackmail him. And if he wants the photo not to be exposed, he can only put it on the other party. Otherwise, if the photo falls into the hands of the police, he will be exposed."
The direction shrugged, and it was an explanation.
Moreover, he thought that Lu Yifan was probably obsessed with it, or was crazy about money. Don’t you understand that being a bad person actually requires smarter than an ordinary person to have a chance?
"Even if he has no photos, what if he talks around the Internet? In this society, as long as someone dares to say something, someone dares to believe it, there is no basic principle."
After thinking about it, Fu Luo asked again.
"That Lu Yifan was almost scared and he shouldn't be stupid anymore. I have warned the other party that if any rumors spread, they would all be on the other party's head. After all, extortion is a serious crime, and I believe he wouldn't be so stupid."
"Okay, then that's the end of this matter. By the way, can I ask an extra question? How did you find Lu Yifan so quickly?"
To be honest, Fu Luo was naturally very curious after he handled this matter in three days.
"This is probably related to my previous experience. In this world, as long as people have done things, they will always leave clues, not to mention that Lu Yifan doesn't understand anything at all. Maybe it's just a temporary slut, which makes this mission completely unchallenging."
Everyone has their own secrets, and the direction is no exception. However, he didn't want to say too much about the past, so he brought it over in just a few simple sentences.
"You've been hurt..."
Fu Luo was not stupid, so he didn't ask any more questions and soon started chatting.
…………
Soon, the crew of "Lost and Orphan" stayed in Dayi for only one day. After filming a scene on the iron chain bridge, they continued to go to the next shooting location.
Speaking of which, there are many iron chain bridge scenes in the movie, which is Zeng Shuai’s only memory of childhood. Therefore, as soon as Lei Zekuan finds that there is an iron chain bridge, he will rush over without stopping.
Then in order to shoot these scenes on the iron chain bridge, the crew had to go around. After all, most of the places where the iron chain bridges can be found are in remote areas in the countryside.
With the rapid development of the country's economy, bridges and roads are being built everywhere, and things like iron chain bridges will naturally disappear slowly. This is probably a microcosm of the development of an era.
After leaving Dayi, it was already the 25th of April. On this day, the organizing committee of the 66th Cannes Film Festival officially announced the list of judges of the main competition unit.
In addition to the earlier confirmed that the famous American producer and great director Steven Spielberg will serve as the chairman of the jury.
The other eight judges are Chinese director Li An, Chinese actor Fu Luo, Australian actor Nicole Kidman, Indian actor Vidya Baran, British director Lynn Ramsey, French actor Daniel Otto, Romanian director Christian Umon and Austrian actor Christopher Walz.
Among them, Li An is another Chinese judge in the main competition unit of Cannes after Du Qifeng, Shi Nansheng and others. This is also the first time that the other party has served as a judge of the three major European film festivals.
Fu Luo also took office for the first time, and after Chen Kaige, Jiang Wen and Zhang Ziyi, he was the fourth mainlander to serve as a judge in the Cannes main competition unit.
Maybe it should be considered the fifth person, because there is also Gong Li. Although the other party is now a Singaporean, he was still a mainlander when he was a judge 16 years ago.
In addition, Zhang Ziyi also obtained Xiangjiang household registration through the "Talent Program". I don't know if he should be considered a mainlander.
In any case, the news that Fu Luo became a Cannes judge immediately became the front-page headline news in China. It feels that for him, it is really not a problem to be on the headlines from time to time.
It was the members of the Cannes Film Festival that surprised him, including Steven Spielberg, Li Yan, Nicole Kidman, Daniel Otto, Christopher Valz, Stian Umon, and he was the most luxurious jury in history.
Spielberg and Li Anke are both Oscar-best directors at two times, Nicole is also an Oscar-best actress, Fu Luo is also an Cannes actress, Daniel Otto is also an Cannes actress, Christopher Walz is two times the best supporting actor, and Stian Wumeng, who has won the Palme d'Or.
Except for the remaining British directors and Indian actresses who are a little weaker in this lineup, everyone else is full of honor.
However, in terms of global fame, the most famous ones are probably Lao Si, Lao Li, Sister Nicole and Fu Luo.
Anyway, the judges knew about this, and Fu Luo had to continue filming "Lost orphan". This time the crew came to Qionglai again. After two days of filming, they continued to rush to the next stop Meishan.
While filming while moving forward, this can probably be regarded as a real road movie.
Soon, on the 30th at the end of April, the crew of "Lost and Orphan" finally left Sichuan Province and arrived in the mountain city. They will be filmed here for thirteen days, which is an outdoor location with more scenes.
On that day, taking advantage of lunch, Fu Luo looked at the computer that Jiang Xiaoyu brought to him in his RV. There were the overseas box office data about "Meet Seattle in the Capital", "To Youth", and "Make a Fight" in the past few weeks.
First of all, he looked at the box office of "Jingxi", and three weeks have passed since the last time he won the box office of 501 million yuan.
Then in the fourth week of the release of "Jingxi", due to the influence of the new "Breakup Contract" released in the new week, it only achieved a box office of 98.73 million yuan, a drop of 52% over the previous week, and it seems that the potential is basically exhausted.
However, this result still became a single-week box office champion, allowing "Jingxi" to successfully dominate the box office champion for four weeks.
"Breakup" won a box office of 53.24 million yuan in three days on the first week, which is already very good, making Bai Baihe successful again.
As for "The War of Drugs" the previous week, it only won 43.41 million yuan this week, and the cumulative amount exceeded 100 million yuan, and its potential was also almost the same. In addition, "The Loyal and Martyr Yang Family Generals" is completely "Loyal and Martyr", so it would be better not to mention it.
Then in the fifth week, "Special Forces 2: A Comprehensive Counterattack" was released in China. It won the title of "Jingxi" with a record of 212 million yuan in seven days a week. This week, the movie only won 47.35 million yuan in box office, ranking third.
The second place is naturally "Breakup", which has a box office of 74.22 million yuan and a total box office of 127 million yuan.
In the last sixth week, "Jingxi" further dropped to a box office of 20.35 million yuan, ranking fourth.
The champion this week is the newly released "To Youth", which won a box office of 146 million yuan in the first three days of the week, which is definitely a big hit. Zhao Wei's directorial debut was a hit.
Of course, Fu Luo is happy to do this. After all, most of the investment in this movie is made from the sand dunes, so the box office is naturally super high.
In addition, the second and third ones are "Special Forces 2" with 71.84 million yuan and "Breakup" with 24.75 million yuan. The two movies have dropped significantly, which is obviously due to insufficient reputation and potential.
In any case, "Jingxi" finally accumulated a box office of 667 million yuan in six weeks, and combined with "To Youth"'s 146 million yuan in three days of the first week, Sandun's two movies became the biggest winners in April.
Then, although "Jingxi" will continue to be released, the total box office of 700 million is definitely hopeless. It is quite gratifying to see the results of "To Youth".
