Chapter 684: Shocked, Wei Wuji and Lu Yuan officially broke up?
"In the past, everyone thought martial arts was dead, but in my opinion, martial arts is not dead. Not only is it not dead, it can even go abroad again and create great box office results!"
"The movie "Ip Man" actually has a prototype in history. The martial art of Wing Chun was not fabricated out of thin air, but was finally determined by our team after many researches and studies. Of course, our male protagonist
Gu Huai is even more entertaining
He has one of the best martial arts skills in the entertainment industry. In order to make this movie, he even spent a month honing his movements and acting skills. He even slept only four hours a day. Even if he was sick, he continued to shoot the movie. The injuries he suffered during the filming
No less than a hundred places!”
"..."
At the premiere of "Ip Man", Fatty Wei spoke passionately and emotionally about the bitterness and difficulty of filming the movie, and even shamelessly wiped his tears after finishing speaking, looking dejected.
A sad look.
In fact!
Fatty Wei's acting skills are indeed good.
There’s nothing weird about a movie premiere!
However, reporters discovered something very strange during the premiere press conference.
That is, Lu Yuan did not attend the premiere...
Yes!
Apart from a sudden and shameless advertisement for "Ip Man" yesterday, there has been no news about him since then.
Didn't even attend today's premiere of "Ip Man"!
You said that it would be fine if Lu Yuan was in Hollywood. It would be understandable if you can't come here.
But everyone knows that you, Lu Yuan, are in China, and the premiere was held at the "Tianhe" cinema in Hangzhou.
Where is this "Tianhe" cinema chain?
It’s your father-in-law’s own theater chain!
And you wrote the plot of this "Ip Man" yourself...
What do you mean you're not attending the premiere?
What happened to Lu Yuan?
The reporters were all puzzled.
Playing a big role?
Lu Yuan is indeed a big name, but this is your own company's movie!
And I haven’t heard that you have anything busy?
The reporters keenly felt that there must be some deep-seated reason for this!
So after Fatty Wei finished his speech, reporters gathered around Fatty Wei...
"Director Wei, hello, what do you think about Mr. Lu not attending the premiere? In the past, Mr. Lu would participate in movies written by himself whenever he had time, but what happened today?"
"Thank you for your support. Mr. Lu is very busy. Well, by the way, now is the "Ip Man" movie conference. I hope everyone can discuss more about the plot of "Ip Man"..."
"..."
"Director Wei, hello, has something happened to Mr. Lu? Or is he holding back some big move?"
"Hello, Mr. Reporter, I think your sentence is very problematic. What happened to Mr. Lu? And today is the press conference of "Ip Man". I hope everyone can discuss more about "Ip Man"
The topic..."
"..."
"Director Wei, hello..."
"..."
Today's "Ip Man" premiere seems different from any previous movie premiere.
In the past, as long as Lu Yuan was unable to attend the premiere of a movie produced by the "Remote" company, basically all kinds of questions about Lu Yuan would be raised at the premiere. As Lu Yuan's official director,
Fatty Wei was very patient and cheerful and told everyone about Lu Yuan's situation.
But now...
Fatty Wei never mentioned Lu Yuan at the premiere!
Not only did he not mention it, but even after being asked by reporters, Fatty Wei would always find various topics to avoid and refer to the "Ip Man" movie.
This in itself is extremely abnormal!
Afterwards, the reporters carefully considered Fatty Wei's previous speech.
I found that Fatty Wei never mentioned a word about his boss Lu Yuan. Even when talking about the script, Fatty Wei always used "our team" instead of Lu Yuan!
After a series of questions, the reporters suddenly realized something again.
They felt that they were about to see some big news. Then they contacted the rumors that came from unknown sources. Fatty Wei had invited Lu Yuan to the press conference of "Ip Man" last night to support him, but Lu Yuan was rejected by Lu Yuan.
Rejected...
this!
Explain what!
Could it be...
When they thought of a possibility, their hearts trembled!
Could it be that something big happened "remotely"?
Is there a huge internal conflict between the number one director of "Yuanyuan", Fatty Wei, and the boss of "Yuanyuan", Lu Yuan?
When they thought of this, a group of reporters breathed rapidly and felt like they were about to suffocate!
If this is the case, then...
News, big news, definitely big news that can shock the entire entertainment industry!
This moment!
All reporters immediately called their own media outlets and told the media leaders what they saw and heard!
They suddenly had a premonition.
It seems like a huge earthquake is coming!
………………………………
After the premiere of "Ip Man", Michael Kors Cinemas across the country, including Hollywood, began to simultaneously broadcast "Ip Man".
certainly……
In the United States, only Michaels Cinemas is playing "Ip Man".
Of course, this is not because other theaters deliberately blocked Lu Yuan, but because they felt that the value of "Ip Man" was not enough for them to give Lu Yuan a share...
Of course, this also has something to do with people.
If Lu Yuan participated in "Ip Man"...
Um!
They will definitely buy it.
As long as you don't overdo it, they will take it without saying a word!
In fact, other theaters in Hollywood are very interested in movies starring Lu Yuan, but they are not very interested in movies directed by Lu Yuan, let alone a martial arts action movie.
In their view, martial arts action movies have declined and can only become a niche movie with similar emotions.
Martial arts movies used to be really popular in Hollywood...
This is true, but that was only once!
It is true that Hollywood has had many martial arts films made by well-known Chinese directors in recent years, but the box office and word-of-mouth response have been very disappointing. Most of them were either flops or lukewarm. There has never been a Chinese martial arts action film that made money.
As for the movie, you said that if it were an island martial arts and non-serious action movie, there would be several theaters in Hollywood that would buy it. Putting it on the midnight block would also express the so-called island country feelings!
But your Chinese martial arts action movies...
Are you kidding me?
Who would read such a serious thing?
Under this situation, the so-called Chinese martial arts movies have gradually become an unpopular category in Hollywood movies, a kind of existence that grandma does not love and uncle does not love. Another reason is that Lu Yuan has not deliberately contacted these theaters to hope.
Can operations such as "Ip Man" be released in their theaters...
Naturally, it is impossible for them to go to Lu Yuan to do a money-giving operation like "Saw" for a movie that they think has no value, right?
Don't they want to lose face?
They are not Lu Yuan's licking dogs!
In short, under many circumstances, "Ip Man" naturally encountered a cold reception in Hollywood.
………………………………
China.
Shen Lianjie is not very interested in "Ip Man".
Martial arts action movie.
Even if it's labeled with a modern background, it's nothing interesting.
but……
He still couldn't resist Fatty Wei's repeated sincere invitations.
Anyway, he's here.
Still sitting next to Fatty Wei.
Shen Lianjie's feelings for Fatty Wei are very complicated. The two of them had a sense of resentment as enemies before. Even when Fatty Wei first debuted, the two even attacked each other in the media.
Everything starts with a series of firecrackers.
In Shen Lianjie's opinion, Fatty Wei is immoral and loves to show off. At the same time, he has no lower limit and will always find various opportunities to disgust himself...
In short, there are a lot of shortcomings!
And I was not strong enough. When I met Fatty Wei, it was like meeting my nemesis. He was constantly suppressed and beaten by Fatty Wei.
He has never truly defeated Fatty Wei once.
At this point, he was so desperate!
This is not the most irritating thing. The most irritating thing is that every time Fatty Wei premieres his movie, he sends an invitation to Shen Lianjie...
It's obvious to show off, isn't it?
Therefore, Shen Lianjie rejected him without hesitation several times before.
But this time...
Shen Lianjie felt that his mentality had changed slightly, and Fatty Wei had indeed invited Shen Lianjie again and again, with the attitude that we need to reconcile and we can become friends.
After Shen Lianjie thought about it again and again, he finally made the choice.
He wanted to see what kind of medicine Fatty Wei was selling in his gourd!
"Director Shen... you are a distinguished guest!"
"Director Wei, congratulations!"
"Haha, thank you, sit down, milk tea or cola?"
"It will be all right!"
"good!"
When Fatty Wei saw Shen Lianjie walking through the crowd in surprise, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and then a warm smile broke out on his face.
The smile is sincere and slightly naive.
There is no hypocrisy.
Very similar...
Lu Yuan.
Of course these are not important things.
In fact, he really hopes to reconcile with Shen Lianjie.
In his opinion, Shen Lianjie is also a talent.
After several movies that hit the street, he felt that Shen Lianjie had completely matured. If he could win over...
That's not a bad thing either.
Subconsciously...
He stretched out his hand and shook it with Shen Lianjie.
Shen Lianjie also smiled when he saw Fatty Wei.
He knew that Fatty Wei had his best intentions, but as an adult, it was impossible for him to show any small-minded appearance.
Anyway...
At this moment, it seemed that all the grudges and grudges seemed to disappear after this handshake and smile.
Whether it was sincerity or hypocrisy, at this moment the two of them behaved like old friends who had been peacefully and reconciled for a long time.
Everyone is laughing.
Everyone laughed very seriously and affectionately.
After laughing, everyone sat down seriously.
The adult world is like this.
certainly!
No one noticed that on the other side, an unscrupulous reporter secretly took a photo of shaking hands with his mobile phone. After taking the photo, the reporter seemed to be very excited and walked out of the cinema...
…………………………
Less than half an hour after the release of "Ip Man", a burst of big news that almost shocked people's attention suddenly appeared on the Internet!
"Shocked! The famous Chinese director Wei Wuji and Lu Yuan officially broke up!"
"Conflicts have intensified. Well-known directors Wei Wuji and Lu Yuan are suspected of completely falling out?"
"Shocked, Wei Wuji secretly contacted Shen Lianjie. The "Ip Man" movie is suspected to be Wei Wuji's last movie in "Yuan". Will Wei Wuji leave his old club "Yuan" and join Joaquin?"
"shock……"
"..."
"..."
A series of shocking and shocking headlines suddenly made wine a hot topic in the entertainment industry!
Then in less than half an hour, this hot topic swept the entire Internet, with countless news about Lu Yuan, Wei Wuji and Shen Lianjie everywhere...
