Thanks to Invincible Outman for the big reward~~~~!!

Zhou Shaoming smiled apologetically at Christina, and how could she not know that this was a necessary social interaction? Christina smiled back, and then he left with Frank.
Zhou Shaoming casually took a cocktail from the waiter and took a sip. The man standing in front of him shocked his heart, and he could only cover up his extremely excited mood by drinking.
The man in front of me has always been the idol actor in Zhou Shaoming's heart in his previous life, "Black Prince" Will Smith!
The movies he starred in include "Jedi Men", "**Day", "Men in Black" series, "The Pursuit of Happyness", "I Am Legend" and so on!
This is a man whose every movie has a box office of more than 100 million U.S. dollars. In the original world, as of 2009, the total box office of movies starring Will Smith exceeded 5.2 billion U.S. dollars!
Will Smith, the little superman, was a famous singer before he entered Hollywood. In the year he graduated from high school, he formed a rap group with his friend Jeff Townes - "DJ Sir Jeff and the Fresh Prince".
Two platinum albums.
As one of the most influential figures in the American music and rap industry, Will Smith has won four Grammy Awards, which other musicians regard as the highest award in the music industry!
But the Will Smith in front of him had deep-set eyes and blue stubble, which seemed a little out of place at this star-studded awards ceremony. His whole person seemed to have lost his energy and felt a little decadent.
There were no other filmmakers around him. It was as if this guy who was most favored by the goddess of luck among black people was finally discovered by God who woke up and unceremoniously knocked him off the altar. Everyone was afraid of being punished.
If you get involved, you can't avoid it.
"Will, relax, those people are just snobby people. You will soon regain your strength and step out of the shadow of Stormtroopers!" Frank patted Will Smith's shoulder empathetically.
, responded with the most friendly smile.
"Thank you, Frank, you are a good man." Will showed a hint of gratitude on his face and looked around inadvertently. Those people who were singing and laughing did not pay attention to what was happening here at all, and a sense of loss arose spontaneously.
"The Storm"? Zhou Shaoming suddenly realized it.
In the original world, Will Smith said angrily more than once that "Bad Boys" was the only bad movie he had ever starred in. He hated this movie so much that when it received nearly 50 million
After its debut of $170 million, he still blamed himself. The film cost $170 million, but the final global box office was only $222 million. It can be said that it was a rare failure for Smith in his career. "Strike" was released in 1999.
It only ranked 17th on the North American box office list, two places lower than "Enemy of the State," which cost only half as much. On the global box office list that year, "Bad Boys" was also 17th.
"Bad Boys," adapted from a popular TV series from the 1960s, lost its original cheerful magic when it came to the big screen, and even led to a brief low point in Smith's career.
"Strike", which has received rave reviews, has an average imdb score of only 4.1, standing on the edge of the pile of bad movies. The Golden Raspberry Awards, which always like to add insult to injury, certainly did not miss this opportunity and gave it the best picture and the best film.
Although he won five awards including Best Director, the judges still let Will Smith go and gave the nomination for Worst Actor Award to the film's other star, Kevin Kline. For such a bad movie, film critics
Naturally, people are not polite either. Of the 101 film reviews collected by Rotten Tomatoes, 80 of them were spitting.
The anxious Will has never been on the forefront of the storm like this since his movie. He has always been a little conceited and arrogant, and faced with the sky full of saliva, he was once so frustrated that he didn't want to believe in himself.
During this period of time, Will has been locking himself at home to reflect and not participate in any social events that he can. However, at today's Oscar ceremony, Will had to give face to the biggest event in the film industry.
But in the Holy Cathedral, Will found that he seemed to be isolated. Although everyone saw that he still had a smiling face, the indifference and conflict between his words were obvious, which made Will, who had always lived in the spotlight, quite uncomfortable.
Habit.
Frank, the boss of Lionsgate Pictures, is a sharp-sighted guy. Instead of insulting Will, he gave Will a big hug even more enthusiastically.
The enthusiastic hug from the boss of the film company who is currently the most popular with "Saw" made Will's face look better. He looked at Smith Zhou who was drinking wine in front of him and smiling kindly to himself. There was even some enthusiasm in his eyes.
Will Smith is in an even better mood.
"Director Smith, hello, I'm Will Smith." Will also calmed down and shook hands with Zhou Shaoming enthusiastically, with a respectful and humble tone, which made Zhou Shaoming quite comfortable.
"You are my idol! The most talented star on the planet! Mr. Will!" Zhou Shaoming laughed and shook Will's hand vigorously.
Most movie fans in this world like the actors in the movies rather than the directors of the movies, but in the movie industry, the status of top movie directors far exceeds that of top movie actors. A good movie director can be replaced by another actor
It still reaches the desired height, but if a movie changes its director, it almost changes its soul, and the whole movie may be completely different.
"Haha, you two talk first, I'm going to meet an old friend!" Seeing that the two of them were happy when they met, Frank left with understanding and asked the director to talk more. As a film company with a vicious eye, Frank
Boss, all he cares about is building good relationships with more top actors or directors. This time Will is at a low point in his career, and he will introduce the hottest director to Will. I believe this time it will be a blessing in disguise.
This behavior is enough to make Will feel grateful to himself.
Will and Zhou Shaoming both nodded, and Frank went to another place feeling refreshed and holding up his wine glass.
"I also went to see Saw in the cinema. It was a rare masterpiece of a horror film. I really can't imagine that anyone in the world could spend more than one million dollars to make such a wonderful movie! I heard that Saw's global
The box office has exceeded the US$300 million mark?" Will smiled in a friendly manner and flatly flattered Zhou Shaoming.
"Haha, you are ridiculous. Saw's global box office has indeed exceeded 300 million, but I believe that my next movie will definitely break this number." Zhou Shaoming smiled slightly, but his unusual confidence made him look unusual.
unique..
"Congratulations in advance to Director Smith Zhou. It seems that your second movie has been completed, right? Those flash mobs are killing people! In the past few days, newspapers and TV have been introducing "Spring of the Cowherd Class" one after another.
, Haha, when are you going to release it?" Will took two cocktails from the waiter passing by, handed one to Zhou Shaoming, and the two touched it gently.
"On May 12, 3,000 movie theaters in the United States will be online at the same time." Zhou Shaoming smiled and took a sip of his cocktail, speaking as if it was just a small matter.
Chapter completed!
