Chapter 181 The unshaven girls
When leaving the airport, Yuan Quan was secretly happy. He didn't expect that he would be surrounded by paparazzi and movie fans as soon as he arrived in the United States.
In fact, this couple is quite pitiful. When I was in China, a certain "Lightning" was better off, but Yuanquan didn't have any reputation. I could usually walk around the streets freely, and when I met the elders and aunties in the community, they would often chat together.
.
The only thing I hate is the breakfast shop and the vegetable market. The little boss there has a very good memory - the mother-in-law of the Hong Kong star is here again, brothers, please sharpen your knives faster!
Therefore, after arriving at the hotel, Yuan Quan was still excited: "Master, are you really that famous in Hollywood? I thought you were bragging before. Hehehe."
Ignoring Yuan Quan's silly smile, Rong Guang was still in a state of confusion.
He inexplicably offended Jerry Yang, and even sent a map cannon to Silicon Valley? Although Rong Guang is not afraid of those fat nerd programmers, he would never want to offend him for no reason, right?
At this time, the IT elites were generally part of the god-making movement, and all of them had a great image and boasted about being the future of mankind. How could they be like more than ten years later, when they turned into black men and women, and once again collectively turned into evil kings?
So if you really want to blame, you should go to the original version of "Parasite". Who made the black IT elite become a kind of political correctness in the future?
Forget it, the boat will go straight to the bridge anyway. It won’t affect anything for the time being, let’s talk about it then!
Letting go of their worries, Rong Guang and Yuan Quan started having fun again. Especially going to Disneyland made Yuan Quan happy.
However, the happy time is always short-lived. The ten-day wedding vacation passed by in a flash, and Yuan Quan reluctantly took the plane back to China with the large and small bags he bought.
…
Finally starting work, Rong Guang went to Industrial Light and Magic first.
"Rong, your shots are simply amazing. You are a genius!" Vickers, the project manager in charge, hugged her warmly as soon as they met, "Look at the special effects we produced, the girls are very passionate. In order to make the production a success
, they all work overtime all night long! Do you understand? The girls are all good! Hahaha!"
Rong Guang glanced around and saw a group of unshaven "girls" around him? Ahem!
"Rong, I forgot to introduce you, this is Huang! In order to ensure the oriental effect of the special effects, our Industrial Light & Magic specially invited him! He is a painter from your country!"
After chatting with Mr. Huang for a few words, I learned that he was indeed from CAFA, and his original major was traditional ink painting.
Perhaps a little helpless, during this period, a large number of domestic artistic talents went abroad, including many artistic talents in music and art. Therefore, it is even more convenient for Hollywood to find an art consultant for traditional ink painting than at home.
This is the situation in "BJ's in New York". Everyone who plays the cello has to wash the dishes. Mr. Huang is one of the lucky ones to be able to get ahead. Of course, he must have enough standards.
Among them, the most successful one should be Mr. Chen Yifei. In 1991, his oil painting "Pipa Play" was sold for HK$1.37 million at Christie's Hong Kong auction, setting the highest auction price for an oil painting by a Chinese contemporary oil painter at that time.
.
As soon as the news came out, it shocked the whole country. Let’s put it this way, its sensational effect! He became the number one person in the Chinese art world!
Generally speaking, literature is not the best. It is difficult to compare works of art. But just because of that auction, Mr. Chen Yifei was able to have an aura of invincibility?
But there is an anecdote for the future.
Mr. Chen Yifei later became a film director. While filming "The Barber", he and Jiang Wen had a falling out. In the end, the filming was stopped, Jiang Wen and Zhou Yun quit, and they had a new relationship. Chen Yifei became ill from overwork.
, but unfortunately died of illness.
So there were rumors outside that Jiang Wen made Chen Yifei angry to death!
Jiang Wen was also disgraced by such rumors.
In the end, Mr. Chen Siyuan came to the rescue and newly selected Chen Kun and Zeng Li as the male and female protagonists. The new version of "The Barber" basically made no waves.
Here, I won’t discuss who is right. But similar problems often arise in the two giants’ crews. For example, Jiang Wen’s later “Looking for a Gun”. Or for example, in “Parasite”, Rong Guang voluntarily quit.
The more you have your own creative ideas, the more you have a desire to control. In this regard, there is almost no compromise!
Industrial Light and Magic is indeed very capable, and the special effects they produce can meet the requirements of luminous effects.
"Vickers, except for these few things that need to be modified, I can do the rest! But no need to talk about adding money!"
"Oh, Rong, how can you be such a traitor? Didn't you see the pitiful expressions on the girls?" When it came to money, Vickers began to stalk him, "Your project schedule is too tight, you can't do it without working overtime."
Done. Did you see? We invited Huang specially for you! And the girls need to stay up late! Their menstrual periods have become abnormal!"
Thinking of those foot-picking "girls", Rong Guang felt a little nauseous: "I'll give you an extra 100,000 yuan as your bonus!"
"NONO! 1.2 million! We will always be good friends!"
"You fucking rob a bank? Up to 200,000!" Rong Guang slapped the table.
"How about 1.15 million? How about it?"
"Damn! Is this how you bargain?"
"Girls! Take action! Give Rong a sweet kiss! Thank you to this kind boss! Hahaha!"
"Fuck!"
"..."
Industrial Light & Magic is indeed very serious about its work, but it is also shameless to ask for money. In the end, it was increased to US$850,000, which was still within Rong Guang's psychological range.
Looking back more than ten years later, there were 50-cent special effects companies everywhere in China. It was only then that we really got rid of the black-hearted methods of Hollywood special effects companies. But now, there is not even 50-cent special effects technology!
…
Finally met Pinky.
As soon as he saw Rong Guang, Pincus greeted him exaggeratedly: "Rong, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Our CAA has made arrangements for it. You have no idea how famous you are now."
"Oh? What's new?"
It turns out that after "Parasite" won the award at Cannes, everyone was caught off guard by its sudden phenomenal reputation.
Originally, according to Harvey Weinstein's arrangement, after winning the award in Cannes, he would then win a few minor awards. It would have to wait until the end of the year before it would be screened on a small scale in North America.
Firstly, this can be slowly warmed up; secondly, it will not be fully launched until the awards season. If the Oscars can be successful in the end, it can be released on a large scale in North America to ensure maximum profits!
After all, this is an art film, not a commercial film. With the promotion of the Oscars, it can still guarantee a North American box office of 450 million. If it wants to have a higher box office, it will be more difficult.
Chapter completed!
