Chapter 482: Adventure Into the Unknown
Shanhe poured tea for the two of them, looked at the dejected Wang Baoqiang and said with a smile:
"If you fail, just fail. Why are you so wilted? It's not like your Wang Baoqiang style!"
Huang Bo gloated and said:
"Haha... He just won the title of Worst Director of 'The Golden Broomstick'. The media and the audience are too vicious. Our baby will be damaged!"
Wang Baoqiang glanced at his friend angrily, and asked Shanhe with a grimace:
"Shanhe, is "Laughing Tianzhu" really that ugly?"
"Uh~ It's really bad! In our whole family, only Little Bear can watch it with gusto!"
"Haha...my son also likes it very much. Baby, you are in the wrong direction. You should go to make children's movies!"
"Are you done yet?"
Wang Baoqiang became angry, pointed at Huang Bo and unleashed a burst of output.
"Don't gloat about your misfortune. During the filming, it felt good that you were different. You were no better than me. Sometimes I laughed at you!"
"That's not possible! Everyone can see that I am more of an artist than you!"
Huang Bo didn't care about Wang Baoqiang's anger.
"Besides, with your golden broom as my foundation, I have to be better than you no matter what!"
"You have a shitty temperament. There is a mirror in the bathroom. Take a look at it yourself. You will look like a filthy and greasy man!"
"Boss, look, is this still the honest and honest Wang Baobao from before!"
Huang Bo laughed and joked,
"The biggest reward for you, Wang Baoqiang, as a director is that your mouth has become poisonous!"
Wang Baoqiang glared at Huang Bo angrily, was too lazy to answer him, and continued to ask the smiling Shanhe:
"Shanhe, I've been in the entertainment industry for so many years, but the movies I make are still so bad. Do I not have the talent to be a director?"
"Well, talent is not as important as you think!"
Shanhe looked at the frustrated Wang Baoqiang and replied,
"Do you think you have the talent to be an actor? Bao Qiang, your advantage is to find the direction that suits you and then work hard on the ground. It can be seen that you want to imitate Stephen Chow, but this direction is not suitable for you. You need to bury your head. Come and settle down for a few years, find the right direction and continue to persevere, you will succeed, I support you!”
Huang Bo didn't continue to joke after hearing this.
"Baby, the boss is right. None of us are geniuses like the boss. Persistence is our only way. I also support you. As long as you need it, you can do anything you want from me!"
Wang Baoqiang was silent for a while, nodded and responded:
"I was indeed a little arrogant in the past two years. I thought too much about myself and took it too much for granted. Shanhe, you are right. When I met you, I was just a dirtbag. How could I have so much vanity and resentment? I decided I will accept the Golden Broom Award with my own hands. If I don’t do well, I will accept the punishment and get up from where I fell!”
"well said!"
Shanhe gave Wang Baoqiang a thumbs up,
"This is the Wang Baoqiang I know, he is so resilient!"
"Have the guts!"
Huang Bo also echoed the idea and praised Wang Baoqiang.
Shan He turned around and looked at Huang Bo, who was smiling.
"Huang Bo, tell me, why did you come to me with Bao Qiang?"
"What else can he do!"
Wang Baoqiang untied the knot in his heart and his tone became much more relaxed.
"He got greedy when he saw me as a director. He found someone to fool with a script and wanted you to pass it by!"
"What a fool, my script has been brewing for seven or eight years!"
Huang Bo licked his face and said to Shanhe,
"Boss, don't listen to the rubbish. This script of mine is not his kind of nonsense comedy. It has depth. Please give it a look!"
"Really, where's the script?"
"Take it with you!"
Huang Bo quickly took out a bound manuscript from his bag and handed it to Shanhe.
"I haven't decided on the title of the script yet. Please take a look at the content first. It tells the story of a group of people living on a desert island!"
Shanhe didn't show any politeness and just started flipping through the script. After reading the first few pages, Shanhe knew the plot of the entire script. Isn't it Huang Bo's directorial debut in his previous life, "A Good Show"!
Shanhe smiled and looked up at Huang Bo, who was worried.
"Hiroko, you have a big heart. You want to make a utopian fable for your debut film. You have the courage!"
"Ah! You will know after reading these pages that he is indeed the king of directors!"
Huang Bo's flattery comes out of his mouth.
"Boss, what do you think?"
"I'll tell you after reading it!"
After more than half an hour, Shanhe gave his own evaluation,
"The script is very good, the story is relatively well completed, and it is indeed very deep. It is a very experimental realistic subject, but you have no intention of giving up the commercial elements. You want to say too much, but the expression is not deep enough, and it is a bit top-heavy. Feel!"
"Boss, it has to be you. I have always felt that there is something wrong with the script. I just can't figure out what the problem is. One word wakes up the dreamer!"
Huang Bo thought for a moment, grinned and said shamelessly,
"How about you change it?"
"hehe…"
Shanhe was amused by Huang Bo,
"Based on the script, the film is still going to be more commercial, right?"
"Yes, yes! You are my lifelong role model. Movies must first tell a good story. No matter how good the film is, if no one sees it, it will be in vain!"
"You need some face!"
Wang Baoqiang said sarcastically from the side,
"If you want to make money, just say it clearly. You talk so grandly, but you still want to compete with Shanhe!"
"You know what the heck, you've already become a director, who hasn't pursued it yet! Nowadays, all Chinese directors don't use their boss as an example!"
"Haha... stop talking about it, okay!"
The two of them were able to make Shan He laugh every minute. He smiled and nodded,
"On the basis of not affecting the plot, I will trim the edges for you. However, it depends on you how the movie will turn out in the end. Execution is very important. No matter how good the script is, if you can't make it, there's nothing anyone can do about it. !”
"understand!"
…
Looking at the departing figures of General Heng Ha, Shan He was filled with emotions. Both Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo have started to become directors. Time has reached this point without realizing it. His past rebirth moment seems to be close at hand!
Facing the unknown fate, Shanhe, who had always been confident, was at a loss. Should I continue to move forward, or should I stop and be a bystander?
Shanhe's mind suddenly became confused and frightened. Without the plug-in for rebirth, could I still be so smooth sailing? If I failed, how would I face the public? Can I accept it calmly like Wang Baoqiang?
The more Shan He thought about it, the more entangled he became, and the more he thought about it, the more scared he became. At this moment, a small figure staggered into Shan He's arms and shouted softly:
"Dad, my brother is bad, he is fierce!"
Shanhe woke up from his daughter's coquettish complaint. When he saw his daughter was full of grievances and her big round eyes, all the messy thoughts in Shanhe were gone.
He picked up his most precious baby and kissed her pink face.
"Your brother still dares to hurt you, go, daddy will take you to settle the score with him!"
Shanhe walked into his son's room with his daughter in his arms, and questioned the little bear who was lying on the table and didn't know what he was doing.
"Qiu Yanche, you can do it now. You have learned to bully your sister. You want to go crazy!"
"I don't!"
Hearing this, Little Bear turned his head and glared at Shanhe, pointed at the picture book on the table and responded eloquently,
"She would make trouble, you see, scribbling on my drawing homework!"
Shanhe looked at Xiao Xiong'er's picture book. There were two human-shaped figures drawn in the middle, and there were daubs of various colors next to them.
"What's the problem? Your sister's painting is pretty good. You can figure it out just by looking at the two of them holding hands!"
"Dad, I drew that!"
Little Bear looked at the mountains and rivers sadly and angrily,
"These are the things next to my sister's painting!"
"Ah, did you draw these two things?"
Shanhe treats his children with serious double standards,
"What is the painting? It looks like a human being or a monster. How dare you hand it in?"
"What I drew was the scene of you and your mother running in a race. In front of you is my mother, Wonder Woman. The teacher said my drawing was good!"
"Is this your mother and me?"
Shanhe laughed and teased his son, saying,
"Then you have disfigured both me and your mother. No wonder your sister can't stand it!"
Little Bear's face turned red, and he retorted unconvinced:
"You're talking nonsense. My ancestors and grandma said that my painting is imaginative, much better than when you were a child!"
"Haha...don't you have imagination? You painted Wonder Woman as Godzilla vs. King Kong!"
"Ha ha…"
Hathaway didn't know why and stood at the door. She was so amused by Shanhe's poisonous tongue towards her son that she covered her mouth and laughed!
When Xiao Huihui saw her mother in her father's arms, she also clapped her hands and started laughing.
Little Xiong'er looked at the two unreliable parents, his eyes were red with grievance, and he started to summon Dafa.
"Grandpa and grandma, grandpa and grandma, grandpa and grandma, come quickly. My dad and mom are partial, and they gang up to bully me again!"
…
After a while, there was a burst of complaints and consolations in the courtyard.
"You two are really good at it. Are there any parents like you? You can entertain your children at home when you have nothing to do!"
"That's right, you two should hurry up and do your work. You'll be upset just watching at home!"
"Don't cry, baby Xiong'er. Grandma will draw another picture with you. Don't listen to your father. When he was a child, he didn't have the aura of Baby Xiong'er!"
"Baby Huihui, come to Grandpa Grandpa. Grandpa Grandpa will tell you and your brother a story!"
…
The days passed slowly with laughter and curses. At the end of May, Hathaway took the Little Flying Bear to Hollywood and began a global promotional tour. "Wonder Woman", which had been delayed for several years, was finally about to be released. .
Perhaps because of the previous parent-child sports meeting video, "Wonder Woman" was released on the first day of June and showed an astonishing box office explosive power!
It grossed 170 million U.S. dollars in the first three days of its first weekend in North America. It also reported a box office of 800 million yuan in its first three days in China. It grossed nearly 500 million U.S. dollars in its first three days in the world. The audience received an excellent reputation and shocked the world.
With her successful interpretation of "Wonder Woman" Diana Prince, Hathaway topped the list of global actress rights, and her commercial value reached its peak. Dior's endorsement fee for her even exceeded 50 million US dollars. Let the Hollywood actresses scold you with red eyes, that's it, you and your wife have taken advantage of all the good things!
What is unexpected is that Hathaway rejected all endorsement contracts in one fell swoop and publicly stated that she would no longer accept commercial endorsements, which made the global public sigh with emotion!
Yes, how could Hathaway be short of money? Not to mention 50 million, she doesn't even care about 500 million. Her husband has already entered the top three in Forbes. He earns an income every year just from the copyright of his works. No calculation!
There are three super-rich people in the Qiu family. The "Geku" website owned by the younger sister-in-law Qiu Chuxi is the fastest-growing shopping website in China in recent years. It is reported that Hathaway holds a large proportion of the shares, and tens of millions are not worth her sacrificing her happy time with her children!
In the following month, although the box office of "Wonder Woman" fell sharply, it still broke through the box office threshold of one billion US dollars, reaching 1.13 billion US dollars, becoming the highest-grossing film in DC Comics!
Time Warner and DC Comics were extremely excited. The Shanhe couple were indeed lucky people. After so many years, the DC Comics Universe finally ushered in the dawn!
They immediately began the preparations for the next "Wonder Woman" and made major changes to the planning of "Justice League". The role of "Wonder Woman" was greatly increased, becoming one of the protagonists of "Justice League".
The salary for Hathaway was also greatly increased, opening to 30 million US dollars plus 15% of the global box office share!
Wonder Woman has just been released, and Ning Hao's Fortress of Magic City has been filmed and produced for more than two years, and then began to be screened around the world.
"Fortress of Magic City" is completely different from the movie of the same name in the previous life. It has won a good reputation as soon as it was released. Needless to say, in China, Ning Hao and Tang Xiaoyu's appeal is enough to sweep the country. Overseas, their popularity is not low, especially in Asian countries. "Take Her Eyes" has touched countless fans.
With the publicity and distribution of Chuhe Film and Television and China Film Group, the domestic box office of "Fortress of Magic City" has exceeded 4 billion yuan, and the global box office will exceed 900 million US dollars, making Ning Hao's highest box office value!
With this film, Ning Hao has become the world's top commercial director. Starring Tang Xiaoyu, Zeng Li has also gained countless rewards, especially Tang Xiaoyu, who has the "Tang Detective" series in hand, plus this "Fortress of Magic City", has become a new generation superstar in the country and even the world, and has caught up with Liu Ye who was lifted to the top by Shanhe!
After the success of "Wonder Woman" and "Fortress of Magic City", Shanhe finally couldn't sit still!
In September 2017, the first season of "The Three-Body Problem", which is expected to invest 200 million US dollars, began the script adaptation work. After being a stay-at-home dad for more than half a year, Shanhe resolutely started his unknown adventure!
He needs to prove to himself that without the rebirth plug-in, I can continue to move forward!
The screenwriter team of "The Three-Body Problem" is extremely luxurious. In addition to the elite screenwriter team of Chuhe Film and Television led by Shanhe himself, there is also the original author Liu Cixin, and the well-known American drama screenwriter team hired from Hollywood. From the beginning, Shanhe has created a masterpiece for global audiences.
As long as the first season of "The Three-Body Problem" can be successful, the second and third seasons will continue to be filmed. I believe that by then, the impact of this TV series on the Chinese film and television industry will not be worse than a global best-selling series of movies!
Shanhe is not sure of winning, but he has the confidence to succeed. Hollywood can make a "Game of Thrones". I have more than ten years of accumulated shooting experience and horror influence as a foundation. Why can't I make a "Three-Body Problem" comparable to it!
If there are American dramas in this world, there will definitely be Chinese dramas!
