Chapter 383
Zhao Xia has returned to China, and Jing Jian stayed in Los Angeles for a few more days. The next stop will be Hujiang. Jing Jian suddenly thought that his classmates should have graduated, right?
Taking advantage of the whim, Jing Jian flipped out the address book and found Mu Guangzhong's contact address. It was still a public phone. After Jing Jian opened it, he waited for more than ten minutes before he heard Mu Guangzhong's voice: "Hey?"
Unexpectedly, he was lucky, and Mu Guangzhong happened to be at home. Jing Jian became very interested: "Guess who I am? Guess, I will win a prize for a girl from Jing!"
"Damn! Are you a slick guy alive?" Mu Guangzhong laughed in surprise, "I don't even write a letter, are you still brothers?"
"Haha, of course I'm a brother." Jing Jian was quite happy and a little bit self-blame. The friends in the same dormitory just had a postcard during the holidays, and did not have a phone call or a letter. "Since I knew you had a watery girl, I've been planning to have your brother for the rest of my life! Hahaha!"
"Quxi!" Mu Guangzhong laughed in Hujiang dialect, "Xiao Jian, where are you?"
"I'm still in the United States. I'll arrive in Hujiang in a few days and say it in advance. Then our brothers will gather."
"Well, which flight?"
"No need to pick it up. I'll contact you in Hujiang!" There is a car from the office to pick it up, so I'm not going to ask Mu Guangzhong, "Lao Mu, American specialties, what do you want?"
"Just get out of here."
“…”
This time I returned to China, I bought a lot of things. At the airport that day, Adelun helped to check his luggage, and Jing Jian walked towards the first-class lounge. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting behind me: "Mr. Jing, such a coincidence?"
"Huh?" I saw a man wearing a carpet white shirt and smiling in a skirt, dragging a suitcase, and should have to take a plane.
"Miss Wu, such a coincidence? You're back home too?" Jing Jian stopped and asked with a smile. Miss Wu Wen was originally a domestic actress. When she was popular, she came to the United States while going abroad. Then she found that it was difficult to get along abroad. Later, she found Jing Jian through Cheng Qinglun's relationship and found him softly and hard. Oh, that time when Jing Jian and Zhao Xia were together.
It was also coincidental that Wu Wen was very lucky. Jing Jian was eager to send her away, so he recommended it to the crew of "Sequel". Although Paramount was basically the main focus this time, he would give Jing Jian a little face. A small character with a few lines, a salary of 15,000 US dollars, and luckily fell on Wu Wen's head.
Wu Wen smiled at Jing Jianyingying: "I'm about to open the mirror and prepare to go home. Where are you?"
"I'm going to Hujiang, something is wrong." Jing Jian smiled politely.
"Wow! That's a coincidence. I'm also back to Hujiang." Seeing Jing Jian showing suspicious eyes, Wu Wen's eyes circulated, "I used to be from Shanghai Film Studio."
"Is that true? Which flight?"
"Wow...we're a group."
"hehe."
In some aspects, Jing Jian has always been carefree. Whether it is coincidental or Wu Wen approached deliberately, Jing Jian would not care. He found out that it was the same flight, so Jing Jian was promoted to Wu Wen's first class cabin. The long journey was long and there was a beautiful woman chatting around him, so why not do it?
...
Sitting in the spacious first-class seat, Wu Wen looked around curiously: "Is this the first-class cabin? The place is so big. In the past, I was in economy class, and I was crowded together. After more than ten hours, I was exhausted."
"Actually, it's almost the same." Jing Jiandandan's pretentiousness.
"It's a long way to go. It's just too expensive." Wu Wen seemed very lively, "Mr. Jing, it's been a few thousand dollars. Otherwise... I'll pay you back slowly in the future." Jing Jian will of course not be stingy, and the return ticket is also upgraded to Wu Wen.
"Haha, your words are very cute." Jing Jian blinked with a smile, "I decided, you want to write an IOU."
"It's so bad." Wu Wen changed the topic without leaving any trace, "Mr. Jing, the box office of the movie you directed exceeded 200 million, right?"
"It's not yet here, it's just a little bit short." Jing Jian replied with a smile. After entering the summer season, "Infinite Tremors Island" began to be fully painted, and the box office in North America reached about 191 million yuan. Then there were the screenings of second- and third-tier cheap cinemas, and the box office would not increase much. However, Jing Jian had decided that even if he persisted, he would spare a year and a half, not seeking the box office share, but he would still give the box office more than 200 million yuan.
The global box office has reached 220 million, but it is time to lose the painting and it will not increase much.
Wu Wen was like a little girl, with little stars on her eyes: "Mr. Jing, you are so awesome. You are 200 million."
Jing Jian shook his head: "The amazing one is director Liu Pajin and the crew members, so I named it." This is not Jing Jian's modesty. The creation of the film is indeed the efforts of the entire crew, and Jing Jian's role is certain creativity, as well as endless fancy promotions.
However, Wu Wen thought that Jing Jian was just modest: "Everyone said that this movie is likely to win the Oscars. You are the best director."
Jing Jian was ridiculous and heard Wu Wen continue to chatter: "...This year's Oscars are so annoying, so I won't give Zunlong the Best Actor. Everyone is saying that it is discrimination against us Chinese. If you win this year, you will piss off those judges to death..."
I have to say that Wu Wen's little mouth is quite sweet, and the more he listens, the more he feels more comfortable. The Oscars at the beginning of this year were nicknamed the "Year of China". The "Last Emperor" won nine major awards in one fell swoop. However, the male protagonist nominated by Zunlong unexpectedly lost, which is a pity.
However, it can be said that it is a pity that Jing Jian is too...? I can only say that if he really wins the best director, he will definitely be the top of the Oscar shame. However, it would be quite exciting to be able to imagine it. Just fantasy. If a commercial film wants to win an Oscar? This is an impossible task. The best result is to win several consolation prizes.
"Eh?" Jing Jian suddenly thought that the consolation prize was actually good, at least Professor Wolf had the ability to strive for the best photography. It seems that when he returned to the United States this time, he would find a way to operate it for them.
"Mr. Jing, will "Infinity" still make the third episode?" The plane has taken off, and Wu Wen is still gossiping.
"The sequel will definitely be the third episode." Jing Jian replied with a smile.
"Then... why didn't Teacher Cheng make it in Seed Music?" Wu Wen asked again. Just a few days ago, Cheng Qinglun left Seed Music. It was a friendly breakup. After becoming famous, there were many places to find Cheng Qinglun to make music, and Seed Music's income could no longer satisfy him. And Seed Music insisted on staying? That would be boring.
"He has developed better." Jing Jian said, "Seed Music is a small pond. I am very happy to have the opportunity to work with Teacher Cheng."
