Chapter 853 Visiting the United States

Remote's action of launching 20 dramas in a short period of time was quickly known by the industry, but everyone did not find it strange. Tudou Video's position as the boss of self-produced dramas has been severely impacted by Youku and Penguin. Remote is now launching a large number of projects, and it must be to dig for gold in the sand.

If 20 dramas can hit one or two hits, they can still maintain their position as the industry leader.

It's a normal way of coping, nothing to be surprised about.

What's more, the four video websites may seem to be competing, but in fact they are collaborating on many projects.

A large part of Penguin's animation was left to Bian Tian and Tiangong Yicai.

Many of Tudou’s dramas will also be simulcast on the Penguin platform.

Penguin is the majority shareholder of Goudong, and Remote Technology’s live-streaming sales project is a collaboration with Goudong—Ali wanted to deeply intervene in Remote Technology’s project, but the two parties failed to reach an agreement.

Calculated, long-range and penguin walking are relatively close.

As for the cooperation intentions sent by Yuanyuan and Tudou, other producers were of course happy to agree. If someone took the initiative to share the risks, why not do it?

After Cheng Yu'an took care of the baby for a few days, she became extremely annoyed by her daughter. The little one wanted to come out all at once, and within two days she was crying for her mother.

While Jing Tian was still immersed in the joy of "Pacific Rim 2"'s excellent first-day score of 143 million, Cheng Yu'an had already boarded a plane to the United States with her daughter.

This movie is more like a Chinese customized movie than a Hollywood mecha movie.

The story of the first part was already very complete. If it weren't for Liu Yifei who was taking care of the domestic box office, the first part would have lost money.

With the first film barely making a profit at the box office, Cheng Lingfeng didn't even plan to make a second film.

But Legend felt that since the first part was profitable, it should make a second part while it was still hot, so it bought the sequel and authorized it to be made by itself.

The first part was profitable because of the domestic market, so Thomas Tull simply used a large number of Chinese actors in the second part.

At present, the performance of the mainland is still strong.

However, the North American base camp suffered heavy losses: it opened with 28 million US dollars and stagnated after 40 million US dollars in the first week.

After the word-of-mouth ban was lifted, it received unanimous negative reviews from North American netizens and critics.

Thomas Tull resolutely bet on the mainland market.

At present, it seems that "Pacific Rim 2" is worthy of its investment, with sales exceeding 400 million in the first three days in the mainland.

But the film studio still dare not relax, because next Friday, Steven Spielberg's "Ready Player One" will be released.

The movie has been highly promoted, and judging from the feedback from the premiere and small-scale screenings, it is very likely to be a global hit - the media and film critics are very fond of this movie.

Therefore, Anne Hathaway, the heroine of "Ready Player One", came to New York to visit Liu Yifei just before the film was released. Steven Spielberg originally wanted to invite Liu Yifei to star, but Liu Yifei had to take care of a child at the time and was in poor health.

Before she could recover, she recommended the opportunity to Anne Hathaway.

It was really not a pre-arranged arrangement. Anne Hathaway's car and Cheng Yu'an's car were parked outside the filming studio.

"E on g," Annie said to Cheng Yu'an first after getting out of the car, "I thought it was some media car that has been following me." She saw Cheng Mufan again, "hi, little girl."

Cheng Mufan greeted Annie very familiarly: "Hello." She knew just a few words.

The three of them walked into the studio together, with Cheng Mufan in front and the two adults following behind to talk.

Annie once again thanked Cheng Yu'an and Liu Yifei for their help, and expressed her support for him: "Don't listen to the president, he can't control Hollywood. You are the best director in the world."

Of course, Cheng Yu'an said: "I won't listen to a guy who doesn't understand movies teach me how to make movies."

"Mom!" Cheng Mufan, who was walking in front, shouted and ran over when he saw Liu Yifei who was touching up her makeup on the set.

At this time, Liu Yifei was wearing a women's black suit and had short hair.

It's hard for Cheng Muchan to recognize his mother.

Liu Yifei hugged her daughter affectionately: "We're here so soon. Have you been obedient at home?"

"have."

"Have you missed your mother?"

Cheng Mufan patted his head: "I want to."

Annie and Cheng Yu'an walked together. Liu Yifei laughed and said to her husband: "I said you didn't arrive so soon."

Anne Hathaway expressed her love for the "John Wick" series on the set: "Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer movies with female protagonists like "John Wick". The producers claim to respect women.

But in fact, she is still unwilling to give actresses a chance." Anne is obviously not the kind of person who even deceives herself.

"I don't like superhero movies." Although Anne also starred as Catwoman in "Batman", Nolan's "Batman" is still different from the current superhero movies. "They destroyed the artistry of the movie.

, and the diversity of art itself.”

Liu Yifei pointed at Cheng Yuan: "He doesn't like superhero movies either."

Cheng Yuan took over: "But Annie, Hollywood is now an era of professional managers. They are responsible first for their bosses and shareholders, and secondly for the audience. When one movie makes a profit, they will not hesitate to make a second one."

The third and fourth parts, because this is the most stable way to make profits.

"They understand statements and investment returns, but they may not understand movies and art."

Annie may not understand what Cheng Yu'an said. Annie has always been on the front line. Even if there are no superhero movies, she will not lack movies. It's just because superhero movies are so popular now that she feels too fanatical.

A few people chatted for a while, and then Liu Yifei continued to work.

Annie stayed on the set for two hours and then left because she still had promotional work for "Ready Player One".

Cheng Yu'an took his daughter back to Liu Yifei's hotel to clean up. He couldn't bear to watch his wife being beaten and beaten on the set - even though Liu Yifei had just finished beating her from the set of his "Mulan".

American film crews also abide by the eight-hour work system when filming, and overtime will require heavy overtime pay.

After finishing the show on time, Liu Yifei changed her clothes and returned to the hotel to reunite with her husband and daughter.

When the family was having dinner at the hotel restaurant, Liu Yifei asked her daughter: "Are you going with your mother or your father tomorrow?"

Cheng Yu'an is going to New Orleans tomorrow. The company has a movie being filmed there and he wants to take a look.

"Follow mom." The little guy drank the soup with a spoon.

"Qiqi still knows how to love her mother." Liu Yifei stretched out her hand and pinched her daughter's face, then turned to Cheng Yu'an and said, "The preparation time for that movie is so short, can it be shot?"

"Don't worry, I'm looking for experienced directors and actors, so there will be no problem."

Cheng Yu'an made this film in response to the US government's accusations against him - he is a filmmaker and he will use movies to fight back.

The script was written by him after he stayed up for several long nights on the set of "Mulan".

Currently filming in New Orleans, the film has a very tight schedule and must be completed within 70 days in time for the Toronto Film Festival, which opens in mid-September.

Originally, Cheng Lingfeng wanted him to direct it himself, but Cheng Yuan refused. The film had a special theme and was not suitable for Cheng Yuan to film by himself.

Cheng Yuan did not direct, but because the script was written by Cheng Yuan, he mixed a lot of personal information into the script.

Not afraid of others seeing it, isn't it just to let others see it? Cheng Yu'an played a conspiracy in this drama.
Chapter completed!
