Chapter 381 Egg Hitting Stone?
The harvest at the Academy Awards was pretty good.
Although Yan Danchen did not win the Best Actress, almost no one would feel it was a pity that she and Mr. Zhou lost to Gong Huang.
Riko won the Best Supporting Actress. Although there is a gap between supporting actress and leading actress, it is a career milestone for the actress.
Although there will be some controversy among industry insiders about the pear winning the award, the "moisture content" is indeed not too much. In the future, pears will have a status that cannot be washed away by floods in the mainland of Tsingyi.
The other awards are also pretty good. It can be said that the stars are not in vain this time.
Of course, the most important ones are the Mainland’s Golden Rooster, Huabiao and the more valuable Golden Horse Awards.
If you're in the Mainland, don't worry too much. The zz attribute of "1937" is now very high. Yiwei Yiwei and Baoqiang may be able to win a big prize.
There may also be surprises at the Wanwan Golden Horse. If you know that the soldiers in "1937" are the national army, the meaning will be a bit subtle.
No matter what, this year can be regarded as a year for everyone in the Ping An Department to achieve great results.
It’s a summary of last year.
As for what results can be achieved this year?
Will be revealed soon!
Lu Ping'an said goodbye to everyone that night, leaving the stall to Hu Qingquan and Wu Guohua, and he flew to Los Angeles to continue filming.
Two days later, Lu Ping'an was invited to join the so-called high-end internal group held by Nordin.
They are all old money, as well as upstarts in the fashion industry and some celebrities.
Collect some contacts and successfully complete the task.
As a current major director, he can already be very calm in such situations, and it will be very smooth to lay the foundation for possible future cooperation.
The next day Lu Ping An arrived at Xinxian, and Cheng Long also came.
The production of "Peak 3" has been completed. The special effects were produced by four special effects companies including Industrial Light and Magic and Akers Technology, and were supervised by Lu Pingan.
Among them, Akers Technology belongs to Lu Ping An, so the buff he just got seems to have worked, and the final completion time was two days faster than expected.
The next step is to check and receive the results.
The finished film did not disappoint.
New Line has already seen it, and Cheng Long and other investors and advertisers were very satisfied after seeing it.
The next step is to set the schedule.
New Line has already locked the time, August 10th, the same date as the original time and space.
For a film like "Peak 3", the schedule is actually very proactive.
Because the series already has a huge fan base.
And the overlap between these fans and fans of other movies is not that high.
So it doesn’t really matter when it’s set.
So things have been settled like this. In a few days, New Line will start to promote "Cheng Long is old."
For Lu Ping'an, all he needs to do is cooperate and play.
After all, the project is not his. After he ensures that the finished film is what he wants and there is no interference, the project has nothing to do with him. What happens next is up to New Line.
After watching the film, Lu Ping'an, Cheng Long and others had dinner together.
When Cheng Long talked about "The King of Kung Fu" at the dinner table, he laughed and said that he was deceived by the director.
Lu Ping'an knew this.
The director of "The King of Kung Fu" wanted to bring Lian Jie and Cheng Long together, so he first went to Cheng Long and told him that Lian Jie agreed and said he must have sex with you for a while. Cheng Long then agreed, and the director Then he went to Lian Jie's place and said that Cheng Long wanted to find you by name and beat you up in the movie. If you don't agree, I can let you beat him up in the movie! As expected, Lian Jie fell into the trap.
Of course, Cheng Long and Lian Jie are also very interested in the cooperation between the two kung fu kings.
After all these years, Wang Bu Jian Wang came down, and if they could have the opportunity to collaborate, and it was in Hollywood, the gimmick was huge, of course they would be happy to do so.
The key is that the money is in place and the script is good. It is expected that this film will achieve good results in the future.
Just when he said this, Cheng Long shook his head and frowned: "I originally wanted to ask you for help to polish the script, but now the script has been changed directly into a mess."
"What do you say?" Lu Ping'an looked as if he was confused.
"Hua Yi, if you insist on adding a female character, I'm not very optimistic about it."
After Cheng Long finished speaking, he sighed slightly. He stopped talking about the script and changed the topic elsewhere.
Lu Ping'an was relieved and stopped paying attention.
The matter of "Peak 3" has been finalized, and the next thing is "Huan Tai".
The next day, news came from Summit that "Huan Tai" was successfully scheduled to open on June 15 in 3,400 theaters across the United States.
The news was announced soon, and North American fans of Safe Road are looking forward to it.
But in the eyes of the media, the situation of "Huan Tai" is not very good.
Because this period was a series of blockbusters.
"Pirates of the Caribbean 3", "Fantastic Four 2", "The Impostor 2", "Die Hard 4" and so on.
Both were hugely successful series.
In the United States, series films have natural advantages.
For an original movie like "Pacific Rim," it's really difficult to get ahead.
What's more, the cost of "Human Pacific" is only 70 million US dollars, and it is a Sino-US co-production, so the publicity disadvantage is even greater.
In the eyes of many media, this is the two advantages that Lu Ping'an directed and Matt Damon starred in. For the rest, everyone basically feels that "Huan Tai" cannot compete with "Fantastic Four 2" which was released on the same day. of.
And I will probably be beaten to death by several other series in the future.
In response to this, old shareholders such as Wattsberg felt the usual panic in their hearts, but it was just panic. They still believed in Lu Pingan.
Notting frowned, just like Wattsberg at the beginning, thinking that Lu Pingan was a little arrogant.
But Lu Pingan didn't care.
He was very confident because he knew the box office of all the movies to come.
At the end of May, "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" had a box office of 960 million!
On June 15, "Fantastic Four 2: Silver Menace" had a box office of 290 million.
On June 22, "Bruce Almighty 2" had a box office of 484 million.
On June 27, "Die Hard 4" had a box office of 378 million.
On June 29, "Ratatouille" had a box office of 600 million.
On July 3, "Transformers 1" had a box office of 700 million.
In late July, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" had a box office of 940 million.
This is the situation.
If it was decided too early, it would be a disaster to meet a billion-dollar super blockbuster like "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", so it is best to stay away from it.
If it was decided too late, it would not be very good during the period of "Ratatouille".
So now is just right.
Because "Fantastic Four 2" was a big hit but little action, with a cost of 130 million and a box office of 290 million.
The box office was not good and the reputation was bad.
It is definitely a soft persimmon.
But the media is very optimistic about this movie.
Shouting that the Fantastic Four are back!
They think that "Pacific Rim" is basically like an egg hitting a stone when it meets it.
So it's just right.
Director Lu can only play a real man again this time.
Lu Ping'an doesn't ask for much, just to successfully step on "Fantastic Four 2", the recognized big boss, and "break out of the siege".
