To say that Gu Qing is like a pimp or something, Tony is simply "injuring the enemy one thousand, and self-injury eight hundred", God only knows who was the first to board the "thief ship".

So, with that said, what is Tony himself?

The headliner of ET Films?

cough cough.

However, although such a statement is not elegant, the meaning inside is indeed able to be understood and conveyed in words.In addition, Gu Qing can be regarded as familiar with doing this kind of thing. Just think about the EX special effects company. There are really many mutants in the X Academy who are named and working in the EX special effects company, and the salary is very high. Gu Qing single-handedly "promoted", from "Gait Shot" to "The Truman Show", and then to "The Matrix" which made EX special effects company more attention, and the special effects of "Lord of the Rings" trilogy were also produced by EX special effects company with director Peter Jackson's team.

Not only that, James Cameron, a technical madman in Hollywood, also joined the development of special effects technology of EX Special Effects Company, which is enough for EX Special Effects Company to have the capital to be proud of other special effects companies. In today's Hollywood, EX Special Effects Company famous.It has a higher status than ET Film Company in the film company. Of course, this is also related to the late start of the special effects company. The special effects companies with technology are not as numerous as the film companies.

But generally speaking, the EX special effects company is developing well, and the salaries and benefits of employees will naturally rise again and again.

Speaking of EX special effects company, it has to add "Iron Man" to its works column.

"Iron Man" is still in the post-production stage. Professionals are in charge of editing and soundtrack. In terms of special effects rendering, Cameron, who has consciously learned and graduated, went into battle lightly.In fact, the special effects in "Iron Man" don't really need advanced special effects. After all, the steel suits inside are all 'real materials', but Cameron wanted to practice, but Gu Qing didn't say anything.

Gu Qing is not afraid of Cameron being lazy or anything, perfectionism syndrome will ensure that the great director will do his best.

It is completely correct to say that, Cameron tried his best, and then discovered the tricks as carefully as a hair.

"Director Xavier, guess what I found when I read the "Iron Man" film?" After the call was connected, Cameron said in an unusually gentle tone.While on the phone, he also turned over the director's diary (recording the shooting progress and the director's own thoughts for the editor to edit) in order to verify his ideas.Before that, Cameron also played the "Iron Man" crew tidbits.

Gu Qing murmured: "Do you want me to really guess, or are you just an introduction to the following?"

It was still a familiar taste, the corners of Cameron’s mouth twitched when he thought this way, and after thinking about it, he asked Gu Qing directly: “You transformed into Tony Stark in "Iron Man", and acted in his place?"

"I thought the succession was smooth, but it turns out that my level is still far inferior to yours, James. I am ashamed of this."

Gu Qing not only acquiesced, but also patted the tyrant's dragon fart by the way.

Cameron would not say that he was delighted, but after thinking about it, Gu Qing is a rookie director, so in comparison, there is actually nothing to be proud of.What's more, Gu Qing admits so simply and quickly, destroying the fun of this matter at once.

Gee.

Fortunately, the great director made another plan, and asked abruptly, "Did Nicole show you the new script he wrote?"

Gu Qing said: "It's very problematic."

Cameron tried not to make his voice sound impatient, he deliberately paused before asking in a calm tone: "What?"

Gu Qing replied as a matter of course: "You, there is something wrong with you changing the subject so bluntly."

Cameron: "..."

Cameron is not sure if Gu Qing is just cheating him, or if he is really so sure, which is embarrassing.Cameron slowed down and said, "I'm not going to change the subject. Do I want to listen to your embarrassing testimonials? I'm not that boring yet."

"makes sense."

Gu Qing believed Cameron's excuse so easily, and the veins on Cameron's forehead started to want to dance—someone can speak so calmly, and then drive others crazy.

Fortunately, Gu Qing then changed the topic along the way: "Andrew gave me the script he wrote, and I read it too."

When filming "Iron Man" at the end of last year, Andrew Nicholl was already conceiving his new script, which is a new work after "Gait Shot" and "The Truman Show".Nicole wanted to continue working with Gu Qing, and he also signed this new work to ET Films, so the script was handed over to Gu Qing just after it was written. The name of this new work is "S1m0ne" .

"S1m0ne" may seem odd, but the name is like a pun on Gattaca and The Truman Show.

"Gattaca", the four letters that make up the word, are composed of the letters of the four nitrogenous bases that make up DNA nucleotides, which also fits the genetic theory in "Gattaca".

"Turman" in "The TrumanShow" is the name of the actor Truman, and this word is a combination of ture and man, which also implies the theme of the film.

As for "S1m0ne", if you replace the '1' and '0' with similar letters, it will be "Simone", that is, Simone.In the script of "Simone", the heroine Simone is designed by a computer program, and 0 and 1 are the most basic units in the program.

Here I have to mention the overall plot of "Simone":

"Although Hollywood director Victor has directed Oscar-nominated films, he has already begun to die. The leading female star of the new film "Sunrise and Sunset" has also abandoned him. At the same time, the film company also wants to terminate the film project. At this moment, Hank, a computer genius, appeared, and he gave Victor a set of software that could design highly realistic [-]D virtual characters.

With the help of a program, Victor created a perfect woman, Simone.With Simone, Victor's film was successfully completed and became a great success. Simone became a popular idol overnight, with countless crazy admirers. Victor also made a comeback, taking advantage of the world's most popular star Simone A second film was made, setting off an even higher craze.

But the situation became uncontrollable. The public wanted to know the true face of Simone. Victor neither had the courage to puncture this beautiful illusion, but also gradually could not bear the increasing pressure. Finally, he "killed" in order to get rid of all this. Victor went to jail for killing Simone. "

"Simone" inherits Andrew Nicole's always sharp irony like a scalpel, showing the struggle between virtuality and reality, and there is nothing to criticize in terms of the completion of the script.

Gu Qing quickly reviewed the script, and continued: "I assume you have read the script of "Simone", James, what do you want to say when you mention it?"

Cameron snorted softly, and then played tricks: "Nicole, he didn't say he wanted you to play the leading role, did he?"

Gu Qing held his breath and said, "I thought you had read the script carefully. In the setting of "Simone", the hero already has a daughter in adolescence."

"That's not the point, Eric. You know Nicole's ability. If he wants you to play the leading role, he won't set it up like this." Cameron said as an "experienced person", and then waited After waiting for half a minute, Cameron couldn't hold back before Gu Qing from the other end said anything, "Speak!"

Gu Qing sighed: "Things have developed to this point, it is obvious that you are waiting for me to step into the 'trap' you prepared, but seriously, James, do you think I will be stupid enough to do this? Although we both spent Talking to each other for half a minute and talking into the microphone sounds stupid enough."

Cameron: "..." It's nothing at first, but it's really stupid for this little bastard to say it.

Even Gu Qing, who also complained about himself, continued to say calmly after the choking director was speechless: "With the technology I have now, I can artificially create a Simone as envisaged in the script." Yes. I think if this is done, after the movie "Simone" is released, James, you think our fans in the real world, after knowing that Simone in "Simone" is really a virtual character, they will be What kind of thinking? Well, I always feel like I told a story like a matryoshka doll."

Cameron raised his eyebrows and pretended to be surprised: "You know Russian dolls?"

Gu Qing: "...I also know about the grandmother paradox."

Cameron: "...I know that too." Such a paradox setting is used in "Terminator": In the future, humans will fight against Skynet. In order to eliminate the human leader John Connor from the source, Skynet will Send the Terminator machine back in time to kill Connor's mother Sarah Connor.After John Connor knew this, he sent another human, Kyle Reese, back to the past to protect his mother, and then Kyle Reese and Sarah Connor fell in love, and after the combination, John Connor was born. connor.

But the crux of the problem is not this, but the conversation between the two of them now, which is really not very "foreign".After Cameron realized it, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he pulled out the embarrassing passage, directly revealing the unsuccessful pass he had sold: "Nicole wrote the script of "Simone" At that time, the source of inspiration for the perfect idol Simone in it was the female version of you."

With blond hair and blue eyes, perfect appearance and perfect acting skills, he fits all the fantasies of idols that the public has.

Gu Qing was silent for a few seconds: "Interesting."

Cameron: "...is your 'funny' genuinely interested in funny, or is it ironic?"

Gu Qing let out a "huh" and said, "7:3."

ha?Seventy-three points?Why not just split it in half?

Cameron was also bewildered by Gu Qing's brilliant strokes, and he couldn't bear to shout into the microphone after he came back to his senses: "Eric Xavier!!"

——Cashi Daily Roar has come out of the rivers and lakes again.

Looking at the whole thing, you really can't blame Cameron. Can you say that the big director made a fuss?No way, after all, the shame of most people is still online, and until now Cameron has not seen through Gu Qing's true face: Gu Qing's integrity and lower limit have been eloped with each other as early as the passage of time, and he gave others his The impression that he is still bright and bright, his integrity and the lower limit are online, thanks to his superb acting skills and good looks.

This leads to two creeds:

Creed [-]: Life is like a play, all depends on acting skills.

Creed [-]: This is a world based on faces.

Going back to this phone call again, the big director’s “prank” didn’t work out. Instead, he was so angry that he got used to it. Whoever let this matter itself is Cameron’s fault, so wait until it’s over. After getting angry, Cameron seemed to suddenly remember something, and said very lightly: "I heard that you are in a relationship?"

Gu Qing coughed dryly: "I don't understand why everyone seems to know about this by coincidence recently."

Cameron, who had already noticed the signs, felt that he had regained his place. He said, "Hehe, it's probably because you have a sour smell of love."

Gu Qing: "..."

It has to be said that Gu Qing guessed right, this matter seems to have become an unspoken secret in their mutant circle of friends.In addition to X Academy, Cameron's old partner, Jon Landau, the gold medal producer who supervised most of the works starring Gu Qing, also... tacitly.

As for how Gu Qing became aware of this, he had to mention "Fight Club".

Before "Fight Club" was finalized, Twentieth Century Fox decided to organize an internal trial screening.This is the norm in Hollywood, but usually after the director's cut or the editor's cut is completed, the producer watches the cut version, and then watches it from the producer's point of view, and then "prunes" the cut version, In this case, the final product, that is, what is presented to the audience, will be quite different from the edited version, or even completely different, or a certain actor's role will be ruthlessly cut.Therefore, when the DVD is released, there will be a director's cut version, which is understandable.

This actually reflects the system of the Hollywood film industry: the producer system.

Having said that, for a movie with a high budget, not only the producer participated in the internal test screening, but also the senior executives of the film company, and even investors.

The situation with "Fight Club" is a bit special. The original budget of this film was 7500 million US dollars. After Gu Qing quit and Brad Pitt joined, the final budget was reduced to 7000 million US dollars.With such a budget, although it cannot be said to be a big production in today's Hollywood, it is still a proper medium-cost production.

It stands to reason that Twentieth Century Fox, after participating in the release of "Gait Shot" and "Star Wars Prequel [-]: The Phantom Menace", and producing and distributing high-grossing movies such as "Titanic", would not be in "Fighter" It would be too petty to say such a middling film like The Club.

Well, considering the "many ants kill elephants" and the aftermath of "Titanic", it is understandable that [-]th Century Fox is cautious.

Then, Gu Qing received an invitation for this internal preview.

This incident happened on the same day as Cameron's unsuccessful call to amuse Gu Qing.

Gu Qing has reason to suspect that, as the co-producer of "Fight Club", Jon Landau, and Cameron are in collusion.

Gu Qing's tone couldn't be more gentle: "Jon, please tell me, in what capacity am I participating in the internal preview of "Fight Club"."

If Gu Qing played Taylor, or if he invested in "Fight Club", or if he had a stake in [-]th Century Fox, then it would be justifiable for him to participate in the internal test screening of this movie, but in fact none of the above .

Jon Landau laughed twice and said, "Because of Jack?"

Don't know if the 'Jack' is a pun, but well, obviously in this context, it should be a pun.

Gu Qing dragged out the tone: "Funny."

Jon Landau's chubby face suddenly wrinkled as if he had eaten a bitter melon. He shouldn't have been instigated by Cameron to tease this big boss. Now it's all right, it's hard to recover, but there is no way but we still have to try our best to remedy it chant.

Jon Landau said in a slightly weak tone: "Uh, I met with Fox's top executives to chat about the prospect of future cooperation... Well, Fox is not very optimistic about the prospects of "Fight Club", although I think this movie has some potential. The potential to become a classic, but other people don't think so. Their views and expectations, combined with my thoughts, remind me of "Blade Runner" in 82. Now I even think that "Fight Club" will probably go to "Silver". The old path of Winged Killer."

In 1982, "Blade Runner", directed by Ridley Scott and starring Harrison Ford, is now regarded as a recognized classic in the history of science fiction, but when it was released at the time, because of its dark and depressing image style And the slow and dignified rhythm with little applause.Audiences who have just experienced the strong audio-visual impact of entertainment masterpieces, it is difficult to be interested in such a gray and obscure film, and the critics have also received rave reviews, even because of "Star Wars" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Harrison Ford, has come forward and admitted that he does not have any room to play in the film.

Of course, after "Blade Runner" "turned over" and turned into a sci-fi classic, whether Harrison Ford's face felt particularly painful, that's unknown...

Gu Qing didn't speak, he began to look for relevant memories of "Fight Club" in his thinking palace, considering that he had a sense of familiarity when he read the script of "Fight Club" before, it means that this movie is largely unrelated. Did not become a shooting star.

Over there, Jon Landau was still nagging, "Fox wouldn't say that it would rot this movie. After all, there are two Hollywood heartthrobs, Leonardo and Brad Pitt, in it. With their box office appeal, even if the word of mouth sucks, it can recoup some of the budget. If they believe this idea, then naturally they will not spend more money on the promotion of "Fight Club", if the publicity can't keep up , it will basically become a vicious circle.”

At this time, Gu Qing picked up the relevant memories of "Fight Club", and it has indeed become a classic. Considering what Jon Landau said, Gu Qing abruptly inserted a sentence during his pause: "Joe Well, you have a good eye."

Jon Landau: "...??"

"Well, it's a compliment." Gu Qing added something that made Jon Landau even more confused, and then irresponsibly returned to the topic, "Speaking of which, Jon, don't you think your reflex arc is too Is it long? When the "Fight Club" project was established, I didn't see that you didn't like the theme it expressed."

Jon Landau was embarrassed: "Didn't [-]th Century Fox engage in internal strife back then? Besides, there is still a certain difference between the script and the final movie."

"That's it." Gu Qing said ambiguously.

Jon Landau was a little uncertain, but Gu Qing said again: "I will go to the internal screening."

After Jon Landau hung up the phone, he rubbed his hands and couldn't help but sighed in his heart: It really is a "good friend".

——The "good friend" here, let's understand its deep meaning by yourself.

……

In one day, Gu Qing was ridiculed twice, directly or indirectly, which is really worth remembering.

It's a pity that this matter stopped here. After all, not everyone is a warrior who dares to face the tragedy and blood, and dares to break ground on the head of Tai Sui.

Gu Qing really didn't take this matter to heart, he turned his head and wrote down the internal test screening of "Fight Club" on the schedule, and "Simone" was run by people from ET Film Company, Gu Qing is now The thing I am most interested in is still pimping, no, it is the research of the Rubik's Cube.

Later in the day, Gu Qing called back the magic mirror and Mo who were flying outside.

I always feel that letting Magic Mirror and Mo go out with the Winter Soldier to destroy Hydra will unknowingly change the painting style to "everyone go on an outing".

Being called back this time, Mo didn't complain, it was so steady and stable, but the magic mirror hummed to express its reluctance, until Gu Qing took out a bluish cube and let it...eat it.

Lord Magic Mirror: "?!!"

Gu Qing smiled and said: "Be a good boy and try your best to digest it."

——To clarify, Gu Qing is testing the strength of the high imitation Cosmic Rubik's Cube, which is really an ingenious way.

The author has something to say: Sex turns into a side story:

friendly reminder:

1. I don’t know if it’s a sexual transfer for all staff;

2. Please don't substitute Robert Jr.'s face hehehe.

Natasha Stark, chairman of Stark Industries, billionaire, genius, philanthropist, Iron Woman.

Well, Iron Woman ← The gender can be seen from the name.

None of this is important, the important thing is that as a Stark, she is a natural luminous body, a focal point in the crowd, and a chasing center of spotlights, but "if you walk too much at night, you will always capsize in the gutter", so This day has come when everyone is happy to see it.

The so-called day means that Natasha Stark is no longer the most shining one in the crowd.

As a genius, Natasha Stark realized this right away. She looked at the secretary next to her, the red-haired Mr. Potts.

Years of tacit understanding/torture, Potts understood his master's thoughts before she even spoke, and said in a calm tone: "You lost."

Natasha Stark: "Excuseme?"

Potts looked at the original Natasha Stark's line of sight, then turned back, and looked down at the petite and exquisite Natasha Stark. "Isn't that obvious?"

"Goddess." This refers to Selena Xavier, who is surrounded by stars not far away. The other party is wearing a royal blue evening dress, which outlines a slim figure. The pearl necklace exudes soft light, matching her A head of golden curly hair as bright as gold, and an invisible but existing aura, making it difficult to look directly at and at the same time unable to move your eyes ← so contradictory.

Mr. Potts looked down at his master again, and said a contrasting word: "female scientist."

Natasha Stark: "...You insulted two words as soon as you opened your mouth. I should congratulate you. Are you good at 'killing two birds with one stone'?"

Potts: "...were you talking yellow just now? Don't roll your eyes! Seriously, I can put up with you in Marbury wearing your racerback tank top and big pants, yes, it is a big boy Underpants, dangling around, but now, even if it's real, it's basically Ms. Stark."

Natasha Stark disagreed: "Calm down, baby, I'm wearing a dress."

However, when he said this, Mr. Potts, who was only able to have children and could do everything else, looked even more lifeless. "—what are you going to do?"

"Say hello."

Natasha Stark waved her back to Potts, dragged her little black dress and strode towards Selina Xavier in a high-spirited manner.

As a lovely and charming secretary, Potts subconsciously made up a big tearing incident: Natasha Stark's nostrils turned to the sky: 'You bitch. '

Selena Xavier poured a glass of wine on Natasha Stark's head: 'You are the coquettish bitch. '

——What a dry brain supplement qwq

In fact, this kind of thing won’t happen even if a comet hits the earth, it’s too low, not enough _(:зゝ∠)_

Speaking of which, it seems that Selena Xavier has not been systematically introduced. It can only be said that she is the chairman of Xavier Industries, a billionaire, a genius, and the winner of the previous Apex Award. Before that, the Apex Award could be Natasha Stark has been contracted for two terms.

This seems to be a collision, but the strange thing is that until today's charity dinner, these two have never met - the last apex award Natasha Stark went to Afghanistan to sell weapons, and by the way Become Iron Woman.

In this case, it is conceivable that when Natasha Stark walked towards Selina Xavier, how much waves it caused among the melon-eating crowd: God, come and watch the comet hit the earth! !
