Chapter 894 Daily Life at Home

"Hey, he really won the Silver Lion!" Wu Yuan laughed out loud when he saw the latest news on Weibo.

Liu Yifei, who was holding her child, also leaned over immediately.

"Did he really win the award?"

"What award? The Grand Jury Prize?"

"Almost, the Silver Lion for Best Director." Wu Yuan handed the phone to Liu Yifei and said with some emotion: "Although I think there is a chance, it still feels a little unreal to see Leslie win the award."

After all, Zhang Guorong's life was changed because of him!

"Really amazing." Liu Yifei smacked her lips and said with some envy: "Brother Leslie is really amazing. He can win the Best Actor Award as an actor and the Best Director Award as a director."

"This is his first time participating in the three major European awards, and he can win the award, just like you did back then."

"That's still a little different." Wu Yuan glanced at his wife and said awkwardly: "I was only a few years old when I won the award, and Leslie was a few years old. There is also a gap between geniuses."

Well, hearing his wife praise other men in front of him, he couldn't help feeling a little sour in his heart. Wu Yuan is such a stingy man.

Today is another weekend. Liu Yifei also came back from the training base to visit her husband and children, while Wu Yuan was unemployed at home and had nothing to do at the moment.

In terms of the preparation of the "Mulan" crew, he only needs to take charge of the overall work. The specific matters are handled by the heads of the crew. Now he is most concerned about the creation of the script. He has revised five versions and is about to be completed.

Before the script is completed, "Mulan" will definitely not start filming, so he naturally won't do anything big. He can stay at home to take care of the children and hold a few video conferences.

After being a housewife these days, Qingqing has become more proficient in calling "Dad".

"By the way, now the cinemas have fully resumed work, right?" Liu Yifei, who was browsing Weibo with Wu Yuan's mobile phone, glanced at the hot search list and saw the entry about the resumption of work in the cinema.

But after clicking on the entry, she saw a wailing.

The cinemas in recent months can be said to be a paradise for art films.

In the past, those art films that could not get a screening were almost released in a cluster in the past few months. For example, more than ten art films were released in September.

There is no way. Commercial films are unwilling to be released at this time, but the cinema needs to schedule screenings. It is impossible to have no movies or old movies.

After all, it costs money to open a cinema. Even if there is one customer, it is better than no customers at all.

Therefore, a large number of art films that were not favored by theaters in the past were scheduled to be released. No matter how many audiences they can attract, at least there are films in the theaters!

However, among these art films, there are also one or two commercial films to support the scene.

For example, "Vanguard" starring Cheng Long is scheduled to be released on September 30. There is no way. This movie was heavily promoted at the end of 2019. It was originally scheduled for the Spring Festival, but it was withdrawn.

If it is not released after the publicity and promotion are completed, it will be difficult to arrange it for release in the future. After all, the distribution company can't afford to do another publicity and promotion, so it can only be released during the National Day.

In addition, there is only one commercial film that can be watched in September, that is "Tenet" from the great director Nolan.

Nolan is Nolan. Due to the epidemic, the film has undergone four schedule changes in North America. Before it was postponed indefinitely, it was originally scheduled to be released on August 12.

After several changes, the film changed its distribution strategy. Starting from August 26, it was first released in 70 markets around the world outside the United States, and from September 3, it was released in some cities in the United States.

In China, it was also scheduled to be released on September 4. It took 1 day and 11:29 to break the box office of 100 million yuan, and it took 2 days and 21:29 to break the box office of 200 million yuan.

There is no doubt that this result is definitely not worthy of Nolan. Even if "Interstellar" in this time and space was intercepted by Wu Yuanxian, Nolan still has countless fans in China and is deified.

If it is released in a normal schedule, "Tenet" can at least get a box office of 1 billion in the mainland. After all, this movie itself is still very good. It may be a little difficult to understand for fans who don't like science fiction movies, but it is definitely an audio-visual feast for science fiction movie lovers.

It's a pity that because it has been promoted and scheduled for promotion, "Tenet" can only bite the bullet and be released globally in August and September.

Originally, on this unlucky day, there was another unlucky movie aimed at the global market to be released, which was "Mulan"!

However, in this time and space, because of Wu Yuan's various butterfly effects, "Mulan" has not even been scheduled for release, let alone filming, so it can be regarded as avoiding this unlucky fate.

Thinking of this, Wu Yuan looked at his wife's pink profile, "You are really lucky to have such a good husband like me."

"Yes, yes, you are the best husband in the world." Hearing Wu Yuan's murmur, Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at him unhappily. They are already an old couple, but they still brag shamelessly every day.

However, she looked down and smiled lightly, and it didn't seem that she really disliked her husband.

"How is your martial arts training going? Can everyone keep up with the progress?" Speaking of "Mulan", Wu Yuan also asked about business.

Martial arts training like this has different progressions. For example, it is required to master the common movements of a certain weapon within a few days, and to master certain martial arts movements within a few days.

And now there is a very special auxiliary device for filming scenes. The current situation is similar to a circle. The actor wears it on his waist, and a field attendant behind him holds a pole for support. It is almost equivalent to an upgraded version of Wia. It has only been developed in recent years. The new equipment that has emerged allows actors to perform some difficult actions, such as backflips and kicks.

The proficient use of these equipment also requires practice, especially for Liu Yifei. She needs to use this equipment in a large number of fighting scenes, such as leaping from a horse and then turning somersaults to stab the enemy.

If you can't practice these moves well, you need to practice more, or even extend the training time.

"Everyone has practiced well." Liu Yifei made an OK gesture and said calmly: "Whether it's me, Brother Xiao Ming, Hu Ge, they all have a lot of experience in fighting scenes, and they can get used to it very quickly, and now It’s much more convenient than before.”

"The only one who can't keep up with the progress is Zhu Yilong, but he works very hard. He practices more every day and can maintain the progress. I estimate that if we practice for another half month, we should be able to start shooting."

"It's almost time." Wu Yuan rubbed his chin, "The script will be completed in about half a month. I will give you half a month to study the script. We will start shooting in November and try to finish it after the new year!" (This chapter over)
