Hollywood Lover
Chapter 189: dig a big hole
Zhang Dongcheng smiled when he heard the words, and joked: "Of course we have to wait until this movie is released. Keanu, do you believe it? After The Matrix is released, you will return to the queue of first-line actors, and you will still be a top actor." One of the A-list actors!"
Keanu Reeves froze for a moment. Although he knew that The Matrix was great, he had reservations about Zhang Dongcheng's words. He smiled and said, "Okay, Director Smith, then I will borrow your good words!"
"No! No! No!" Zhang Dongcheng shook his head, and said seriously: "I'm not talking nice words, I'm serious. Keanu, The Matrix will become a milestone in your acting career!"
Even though he didn't have much contact with Zhang Dongcheng, Keanu Reeves could tell whether he was joking now. When he saw Zhang Dongcheng's firm expression, his original thoughts were shaken.
In fact, before the Matrix, when Keanu Reeves was mentioned, the movie that everyone thought of would be "Speed". But after The Matrix was released, this movie immediately surpassed the speed of life and death and became his most representative work.
Even after many years, Keanu Reeves was in the 2004 movie "Hellboy" with Rachel, and he was commented by the "Houston Chronicle": Sometimes, Reeves forgets which movie he is in, because He's still in Neo's pose.
It can be seen from this that the savior played by Keanu Reeves is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"How is it. Keanu, are you interested in coming to Dongcheng Films for development?" Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Dongcheng decisively began to recruit people.
Keanu Reeves is definitely one of the most spiritual actors in Hollywood. If you don’t pull him into your own company now, it will be too late to start after the Matrix is released, because Keanu Reeves at that time Weiss will definitely double his worth!
Seeing Zhang Dongcheng's sincere eyes, Keanu Reeves was moved. He is an emotional person, and his distinctive feature is knowing how to repay kindness.
In the original Matrix crew, this guy paid a lot of money out of his own pocket to thank the 12 actors who acted as stand-ins for him in the Matrix series, and each bought a rather expensive Harley heavy-duty motorcycle for them. , In the end, he even gave all the crew members his salary of 50 million pounds in the Matrix series.
From this we can see how Keanu Reeves is. Zhang Dongcheng found him at his most difficult moment and asked him to play the protagonist of The Matrix. It is the grace of knowing you.
At the moment, Keanu Reeves also looked serious, and said: "Sorry, Director Smith, I need to think about it. Well, let's go back to Los Angeles, and I'll give you an answer, how about it?"
"OK! Then I'll wait for your good news!" Of course Zhang Dongcheng knew that his request was a bit sudden, and Keanu Reeves needed time to think about it. After all, Keanu Reeves is an adult, and he must have such a well-thought-out plan for his future, and it is impossible to sell himself rashly.
Have held two wrap-up banquets, Zhang Dongcheng is very familiar with this, he shuttled around the tables skillfully, drinking and chatting with the crew members.
Because he was thinking about going back to the United States tomorrow to produce post-production special effects, Zhang Dongcheng consciously controlled his drinking this time and did not drink too much.
After the wrap-up banquet, everyone went back to rest for the night. At around 9:00 am the next day, Zhang Dongcheng chartered a passenger plane, took everyone into the blue sky, and embarked on the journey back to Los Angeles.
On the way, Adaman rarely flipped through the newspaper delivered by the stewardess.
"Wow!" Adaman exclaimed suddenly, and said, "Hey, Smith, look, this guy Ender is also a director! Oh! This **** bastard, he actually used you to promote!*** *! This guy is not a thing!"
Hearing Adaman's words, Zhang Dongcheng, who was closing his eyes and resting his mind, suddenly regained his energy, took the newspaper from Adaman, and read it carefully.
This newspaper is Zhang Dongcheng's old enemy "Los Angeles Media Information". On the front page was a photo of Ender. In the photo, Ender was wearing a suit and looked polite.
The news briefly described the events of Ander's college days, and then focused on describing that he came to Hollywood and got guidance from George Lucas.
Zhang Dongcheng even noticed that the name George Lucas appeared nine times in the hundreds of words in the first paragraph alone!
This guy, Ender, is still there, he is really dying to take advantage of George Lucas! If it weren't for his photo in the report, it would be hard to think that this movie is the work of George Lucas.
In the second paragraph, he also brought himself out. Not only did he write about the fact that Zhang Dongcheng and An De were college classmates, but even An De said in the interview that he would adjust the new movie to the same schedule as himself, Then beat yourself up.
Naturally, there are a lot of cynicism, ridiculing Zhang Dongcheng's arrogant and complacent remarks that he is bound to fail in the Matrix movie!
On the other hand, the newspapers tried their best to praise Ender's movie, as if the audience would be a huge loss if they didn't go to the cinema to buy tickets to watch it.
Extremely cold? Zhang Dongcheng searched in his mind, but it was very funny to find that although this movie is considered a classic by many horror movie lovers, it was a disastrous failure at the box office in the United States!
The cost is about $40-50 million, but what is the box office in the United States? More than 10 million U.S. dollars will be drawn!
Oh my god, it's clear that even the capital will be lost!
Out of curiosity, Zhang Dongcheng also watched the movie "Extremely Cold" later, and found that the movie was still very good, but he couldn't understand why the box office was so low.
It's possible, it might be a problem with the schedule, or it might be that, apart from being lucky at the moment of reincarnation, Ender is just lucky.
Seeing this report, Zhang Dongcheng sneered. Ander, this guy is really lingering, and he wants to defeat his own Matrix even with a movie that can't even reach one-third of the cost at the box office?
It's not that Zhang Dongcheng looks down on him, this guy won't even think about it in his next life!
But it seems that we can make a fuss about it? Zhang Dongcheng suddenly had a bad idea in his mind. He began to think about how to set up a trick for Ender.
"Adaman, don't be angry, are you interested in digging a hole for Ander together?" Zhang Dongcheng looked at Adaman with a smirk and asked.
His smile made Adaman feel pleasantly surprised. Since college days, Ander has been the enemy of him and Zhang Dongcheng.
As long as there is a chance, Ander will never give up mocking him and Zhang Dongcheng. Now that he has the opportunity to trick Ander, how could Adaman give up? Immediately, he stood up impatiently, and asked, "Smith, what's your idea? Tell me quickly!"
"Don't worry!" Zhang Dongcheng waved his hand, motioned Adaman to sit down, and said in a low voice: "Adaman, have you forgotten why we speed up the time shooting?"
"Of course I haven't forgotten, isn't it just to avoid the schedule of the Titanic? You..." Adaman is not stupid, he immediately realized what Zhang Dongcheng wanted to do.
"Smith, do you mean to let Ender crash into this big ship?" Adaman asked excitedly.
Zhang Dongcheng nodded with a smile, pointed at the content of the newspaper, and said: "Look, Ander has already said that it will be released at the same time as me! How can I not cheat him well?" ?”
Adaman's eyes were filled with surprise, his gaze swept across this content, and he said excitedly: "Great! This idea is simply great!"
But then, Adaman frowned again, and asked suspiciously: "Smith, although you said before that any movie that collides with the Titanic will be bad luck, but we don't know its specific release date." Time! How did this cause Ender and the Techtanic to crash?"
"This is very simple!" Zhang Dongcheng knew very well that the premiere of Titanic was at the Tokyo International Film Festival on November 1 this year, while the US release date was about a month later, in December this year. number nineteen. One day later than Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore! It is impossible to tell Adaman these materials, because he has no way to explain the source of these materials.
But I believe that as long as Ender's movie is scheduled to be released in mid-December, then his final fate will definitely be crushed by the Titanic!
"According to my estimation, Titanic is likely to premiere at this year's Tokyo International Film Festival, and it will be released in the United States around December. As long as we release the news, the movie will be released in mid-December, Ender will definitely be fooled!"
After hearing Zhang Dongcheng's analysis, Adaman finally let go of the last worry in his heart. Nodding vigorously, he said, "Great, now that you know the release time of Titanic, leave the rest to me!"
Handing it to him, Zhang Dongcheng was really worried, and asked: "Adaman, you don't mean to provoke Ender directly, and tell him when our movie will be released?"
"Right?" Adaman nodded as a matter of course, and said, "If we don't do this, how can we let Ender be fooled?"
Zhang Dongcheng glanced at him speechlessly, and said, "Don't you think about it? Don't forget, Ender is provoking us now. If you just tell him that The Matrix will be released in mid-December, When we adjust the schedule at that time, don’t we seem to be afraid of him? Even if his movie fails, there is still a reason to say that he just lost to the Titanic, and we don’t even dare to arrange the same schedule with him! "
"Eh!" Adaman was at a loss for words, and said awkwardly: "Smith, I'm sorry, I didn't think of this, so what do you think we should do?"
