Chapter 687 Dayao's first show, various projects start to finish
Chapter 687 Dayao’s debut, various projects started and completed
On the 30th, Jiang Yan appeared at Madison Stadium in New York.
Tonight's Madison Square Garden will usher in the Knicks' opening game of the season, and their opponent in the opening game is the Washington Wizards, who own Jordan and this year's No. 1 pick.
Because it is the first game of Jordan's second comeback, and this is New York, the number one city in the world, the place where the spotlight is focused, so today's traffic here is the highest in the United States. This is why the number of people who came to Madison Stadium tonight is
There are almost too many celebrities from all walks of life to count.
But no matter how many celebrities there are, this is a basketball court after all, and no light can cover up the glory of that "god".
So Jiang Yan felt for the first time what real "top class" means.
The old hooligan got the ball and the whole crowd cheered.
The old hooligan missed a shot or made a mistake, but the audience still cheered.
The old hooligan scored a goal and the whole place exploded.
The fans present were full of passion, and every time the old gangster took action, it seemed as if he was throwing out all the resentment that the audience had accumulated since 9/11.
So later in the game, the result became less important. The most important thing was that the old gangster was still on the court.
In the end, the Wizards defeated the Knicks 97-93.
The old hooligan played 37 minutes and scored 19 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 steals.
Dayao, the No. 1 pick, played 8 minutes, made 3 of 5 shots, scored 7 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 blocks and 3 turnovers. His debut was pretty good.
After the game, Jiang Yan was interviewed by Zhang Weiping who was at the scene:
"A Yan, what do you think of Dayao's performance today?"
Jiang Yan: "It's better than I expected. You also know the atmosphere today. Jordan's comeback is of great significance. It can be said that most of these people today are here for Jordan, so Dayao's playing time is not much.
In addition, as Jordan's teammate, Dayao's pressure on the court will increase exponentially, and any mistake will be regarded by the fans as holding Jordan back. Therefore, Dayao's performance in his first show proves that he is fully able to adapt to the NBA.
"
Zhang Weiping: "What height do you think the combination of Yao and Jordan can reach this season?"
Jiang Yan: "Looking at the paper data, we still have the potential for the playoffs, but Jordan's age is a problem, so it's hard to say anything."
Zhang Weiping: "I know that you were invited by Jordan to participate in the Wizards' team training this morning. In your opinion, what is the difference between NBA team training and domestic training?"
"The difference is that it is more scientific and systematic. We still need to do a lot in this regard..."
After briefly chatting about some competition issues, Zhang Weiping asked again:
"This is the second time you have witnessed the debut of a Chinese player in the NBA. How do you feel now?"
Jiang Yan smiled and took the microphone, pointed it at Zhang Weiping and asked, "I remember this is your second time too. Come on, let me know what you think."
"Hahaha..."
After joking, Jiang Yan said seriously: "If I have my thoughts, I hope to see more players go abroad as soon as possible."
These are the words of hello and my happy reunion in front of the camera, and everyone is willing to listen to them.
I won’t go into more details. Anyway, Jiang Yan and Zhang Weiping have talked a lot in private, such as talent training.
There are also some issues that are quite disconcerting to domestic fans.
For example, the question of whether Dayao is suitable for the Wizards.
Dayao is now teammates with Jordan, which has both advantages and disadvantages. At present, it seems that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Because Jordan is here, Dayao will have much less pressure from the media in his rookie season because the old gangster was favored by Jiang Yan.
, so he will take more care of Dayao, and therefore, Dayao's adaptation to the alliance is much faster than in the original time and space.
But Jiang Yan knew that Jordan would retire completely after playing for at most two years. At that time, Yao had also passed his rookie period and had to make plans for his career.
Although the Wizards are in Washington, this is a small ball market. If Yao wants to maximize commercial value in the future, he must change places.
Where to go, Jiang Yan's ideal dream is Los Angeles, teaming up with Kobe Bryant in the future, taking Gasol's place, and then winning one or two championships. This would be much better than Yao Yao in the original time and space.
Or when Jiang Yan finds an opportunity to buy a team, then trade him over, and then rely on his forward thinking to form a Galaxy Battleship. With better luck, he might be able to win many championships.
It's quite interesting to think about it this way. Jiang Yan will pay attention to this...
...
After the game, Dayao and Jiang Yan briefly said hello and then left the team. They had to rush to Atlanta overnight to prepare for the away game the day after tomorrow.
Later, Jiang Yan, Li Binbin, Brother Long, and Jay Chou, who came to watch the game today, had a meal together.
Brother Long happened to be in the United States. Knowing that Jiang Yan had just received the 16 platinum certificate, he made an appointment with Jiang Yan to talk about movies. Then Jiang Yan simply invited him to watch Yao's first show together. Jay's words were specially called by Jiang Yan. For
The purpose is to break the previous antagonism between the two fan bases.
So during the game, people in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan saw Jiang Yan, Long Ge, Jay Clen and Li Binbin sitting together, which became a hot topic.
You must know that today is the first game of Jordan's comeback. The first row seats have been sold for more than 100,000, and they are still unavailable. The fact that Jiang Yan and others can sit here is a reflection of their status. Looking at the whole audience, how many Asian celebrities are there?
There are only these four, so it’s strange that this topic is not popular.
So soon the next day in the mainland and Hong Kong and Taiwan, "Yao Yao made his debut, and many superstars attended the show" "Jiang Yan and Long Ge were chatting and laughing at xxx" "Long Ge and Jiang Yan may collaborate on a new project" "Li Binbin's sportswear is full of energy" "Li Binbin
All the news came out, such as "He will be cast in an American drama soon" and "Jiang Yan and Jay Chou sit together, breaking the rumors".
The rumors of disagreement were broken, and four people were elevated to the top at the same time. It can be said that one stone kills two birds with one stone.
During the meal, the first thing Jiang Yan and Brother Long talked about was the "Myth" that Jiang Yan and Tang Jili mentioned before.
After Tang Jili got the rough script, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and found his old partner Long Ge.
But now it’s time for Brother Long to be proud. "Rush Hour 2" was released in August. The global box office has now exceeded 300 million US dollars. Brother Long has also set a box office record for a Chinese actor starring in a Hollywood movie and a comedy in the United States.
’s first-run box office record, Brother Long is now at the peak of his life.
So now Brother Long is too lazy to pay attention to many scripts in Hollywood, let alone domestic scripts.
But when he knew that this was Jiang Yan's script, his attitude changed.
Not to mention anything else about Jiang Yan, at least his scripts have been successful in Hollywood, such as "Kill Bill" and "The Departed", so this point alone needs to be taken seriously by Brother Long.
Sure enough, when he saw the script of "Myth", he felt that "Meng Yi" must be him, and this was under the premise that the actress was undecided.
Then I came over to talk to Jiang Yan about the project in detail, seeing that he wanted to start it immediately.
But of course Jiang Yan has no confidence in whether this project can be successful in Hollywood.
The original "Myth" did not have much box office in North America, and it also lost money in the Mainland. This is why Jiang Yan sold off the film rights before, leaving only the TV series rights.
So in the end Jiang Yan rejected Brother Long's proposal. The reason is very simple. This film is suitable for your transformation. Now that you are famous and you have to transform, why don't you think more about it?
After hearing this, Brother Long felt that this was indeed the case. Now that the "Rush Hour" series is popular, the audience is watching his comedy skills. If a tragic story suddenly comes now, and it is a purely Chinese story, will the American audience buy it?
It will indeed be a problem.
So the topic was brought up, and then the two talked about "Kung Fu Panda".
"Kung Fu Panda" currently has cooperation with the Marriage Class, such as motion capture. In addition, when the final film is released, Brother Long will definitely participate in dubbing, especially the English version. Brother Long is currently popular, so he will not use it to dub a movie.
It's a pity to match.
Speaking of dubbing, Jiang Yan brought Jay Chou in, and his dubbing will be exclusively for the Bay Area version.
Not only that, Jiang Yan also gave him the right to recommend dubbing guests for other characters, such as the two female characters of Tough Tiger and Qiao Xiaolong.
Then Jaylen's little eyes started to spin happily, and he didn't know who he was thinking of...
...
After the dinner, Brother Long had to leave first, and Jaylen left first without turning into a light bulb. He would play in Lao America for a while in the past few days.
Jiang Yan also had something to do here, so he ignored him, told each other to be safe, and took Li Binbin to Illinois overnight.
The filming location of the original "Prison Break" was the abandoned Joliet Prison in Illinois. Jiang Yan still chose this place this time, but because the time was four years ahead of schedule, some conditions were still not fully met.
In business.
But it’s not a big problem, because it’s not far away from the prison closing time. This period of time can be used by Li Binbin to strengthen various skills, such as English speaking, American acting methods, etc.
The next day Jiang Yan met the original cast members he wanted on the set.
Compared with the original group of characters, the current protagonists are naturally younger in temperament.
"Schofield" Miller has just finished filming "The Great Dinosaur". His looks are good enough, but he is still a bit young.
"Tbag" Robert Knepp still has long hair and fewer wrinkles on his face than in the original version, making him look less sinister.
Other actors have more or less similar problems, and Jiang Yan also understands this. After all, this drama is four years ahead of schedule and there is less accumulation of four years, so there will indeed be a big difference.
But the good news is that the people here are all relatively professional actors. To put it bluntly, except for the protagonist Miller, who is not too worried about his livelihood now, the opportunity of "Prison Break" is the most important life-saving straw for others at the moment.
In addition, Jiang Yan also said that he hopes everyone will take it seriously. If he messes up, he will re-shoot at worst. Then the mice will be kicked out and the ones with good attitudes will be left, and the salary will be paid again. Anyway, the cost of a drama is
Just tens of millions, which is small money to him.
As for those who have been kicked out, they will just have to pray for "Prison Break" to hit the streets, otherwise this will be their stain in the future.
Jiang Yan's attitude lacked his usual friendliness, and this really made the main creators understand that this "Son of the Wind" is not a star now, he is the boss! So the subsequent conversation was much more efficient to the naked eye.
.
And when they started to play together, driven by the friendly aura of Jiang Yan, a great screenwriter, the leading actors quickly found the way they should play.
Then, "Tbag" came back, "Schofield" came back, and basically everyone else came back.
Of course, Li Binbin's "Sara" will never come back, but it doesn't matter, Li Binbin doesn't have many roles to begin with, as long as he can pass the speaking test and don't make mistakes in his performance.
Li Binbin herself is very motivated, so she has to memorize the dozens of lines every night, and then find the line teacher on the set to go over them again.
It was very difficult, just like taking the exam after hours, but this kind of behavior also motivated the other actors to a certain extent, because they had heard that Li Binbin didn't know English a few months ago, and now, good guy,
If you ignore that those words are just lines, no one would think that she was born and raised in China.
Respect comes from this simplest quality, so it only took Li Binbin less than two days to establish himself in the crew.
Jiang Yan was naturally very satisfied with this, so he could return to South Korea for filming with peace of mind.
.......
Starting from November 1st, Jiang Yan spent most of his time filming.
During this period, he took the time to go to the Golden Horse Awards, and Huang Bo went with him. Huang Bo's previous film "Let's Go Last Time" was also shortlisted for Best New Actor this time, but the probability of winning the award is not high. Huang Bo also
He knew it, so he thought it was time to gain knowledge, and then he and Jiang Yan witnessed Liu Ye winning the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor with "Lan Yu".
It should be said that Liu Ye's best actor role is quite controversial, because he defeated Wu Zhengyu's Ni Yongxiao in "Infernal Affairs 2".
What to say about these two characters? If we go by general standards, Wu Zhengyu is definitely better than Yishou, but the Golden Horse Awards are a little different. Maybe they want to be special, or they prefer literary and artistic films, such as "Lan Yu"
It became an advantage to have no box office, and then Liu Ye was successfully crowned.
Jiang Yan doesn't care about such a result. Anyway, both of them are his people, and whoever succeeds will benefit both the stars and the sea.
The Best Actress Award this time was won by Qin Hailu for her role in "Durian". There was Liu Ye and Qin Hailu. The 96th China Drama Awards became the focus, and Li Zi inevitably had the idea of trying to win the Best Actress Award.
Regarding this, Jiang Yan can only say that he will try his best to help her, after all, the movie queen thing is really not that easy to handle.
On November 18, Britney Spears released a new single "toxic".
"Toxic" is a collaboration between "Son of the Wind" and Britney. One is behind the scenes and the other is in charge of singing.
As soon as the single came out, it ranked second on Billboard within a week, becoming Britney's third song to break into the top ten of Billboard.
In the third week, "toxic" topped the music charts in 8 countries including Canada, Hungary, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Norway, and Sweden.
Such achievements not only allowed Britney to successfully complete the conditions for transformation, but also put Jiang Yan on the map for next year's Grammy Award for Best Produced Single.
Jiang Yan expressed confidence in this, because "Toxic" is Britney's only Grammy-winning song, so she has a high chance of winning.
Britney from the West is supported by Jiang Yan and is very likely to win the Grammy. Ayumi Hamasaki from the East is also supported by Jiang Yan and starts to exert his strength.
On November 20, Ayumi Hamasaki's single "Blue Bird" landed at No. 1 on the Neon Oricon Chart.
The song "Blue Bird" was written and composed by Jiang Yan. It is the character song of "Ace" in "One Piece". Jiang Yan originally planned to change the song, but then he thought about "Naruto" and the like and he didn't really like watching it anyway, so he just used this one.
Forget the song.
Then, after this song was perfectly performed by Ayumi Hamasaki, keywords such as "Ero Yan", "Ayumi Hamasaki" and "One Piece" became neon hits.
What followed was various scandals between Hamasaki Ayumi and Jiang Yan.
However, Jiang Yan's fans have become accustomed to this kind of scandal. No matter how much speculation there is, there will be no stone hammer, so they just treat it as a lively event.
On December 23, "My Sassy Girl" finally wrapped up after 83 days of filming. After Jiang Yan said a brief farewell to the crew, he flew back to Hengdian on a large plane. After eating more than two months of kimchi, he was really affected.
enough...
