Chapter two thousand one hundred and seven amazing news at the celebration
Everyone comes to this kind of celebration banquet, one is to give Ye Ming face. After all, Ye Ming is already a big shot who has reached the top of the entertainment industry.
There are very few people who don't give face to a big shot of this level, and even if they do, they are only in the minority at Zhou Xingxing's level. Another thing is to expand one's personal network.
In the entertainment industry, in addition to participating in movies, TV shows, or variety shows together to build relationships and make friends, in fact, gatherings like this, or awards ceremonies, etc., are also a good time to build relationships.
Therefore, on such an issue, Ye Ming also gave them a very good opportunity to communicate with each other at this time.
If there is someone with the right temperament, you can chat a few more words, otherwise we will become acquaintances, and there is a possibility of becoming friends in the future. Needless to say, Andy is so familiar that there is no problem in saying hello at any time.
As for Hua Jian, when Ye Ming went to Hong Kong and Taiwan, he actually had some interactions with Ye Ming. He was considered a semi-acquaintance. Naturally, he would chat with Ye Ming first to express his congratulations and so on.
For example, Yi Lian and others who didn't have much contact with Ye Ming came here with Hua Jian, so they knew Ye Ming.
Although these big-name singers came here to give Bob some face, no matter what they said, they always stood up for Ye Ming. At this time, Ye Ming also had to recognize this kind of favor.
Therefore, he actually said that chatting with these singers from Universal Music was very lively. Of course, this is how the relationship was slowly cultivated.
Now we are considered acquaintances first, and when we meet again in some movie, TV show, or variety show award ceremony, we will be considered acquaintances.
This emotional relationship was developed through step-by-step contact.
Many celebrities originally thought that coming here this time was actually to give Ye Ming face, but they never thought that something special would happen at such a celebration banquet.
One is that Han Shanping came over and said that the General Administration of Optoelectronics supports Ye Ming and supports domestic films to go global. On this point, Han Shanping also focused on this issue when he spoke.
What this incident shows is that the General Administration still supports the majority of producers and directors to further expand and strengthen domestic films. This is a core spirit of this celebration banquet, and everyone must fully understand it.
The official tone had been set, and naturally everyone said they would give it a big thumbs up and applaud warmly.
Of course, this was just a surprise. Not many people from the General Administration would come to the celebration banquet, and it was a heavyweight leader like Han Shanping who came.
It can be seen that Ye Ming is in the General Administration. It is indeed not an ordinary background, but a connection. What surprises everyone even more is Bob's coming this time. Is Bob coming here just to support Ye Ming?
?
It seemed that it was not a very possible thing. On such a question, the answer to the puzzle was soon revealed. Bob's coming here was definitely not as simple as simply supporting Ye Ming.
Of course this is a sign to come, but specifically it is for a movie like Fast and Furious.
Only when the contract is truly signed and Ye Ming is willing to make this movie, Universal will be relieved. Otherwise, it is not impossible for Ye Ming to directly find someone else to cooperate.
The relationship between Fox and Ye Ming is extraordinary. It is not impossible for companies such as Paramount and Disney to offer good conditions to cooperate with Ye Ming for the sake of profit.
Therefore, only by actually signing the contract can we rest assured. Universal does not want the movies it cultivates to end up being hens that lay golden eggs for others.
Ye Ming's lawyer has also reviewed these contracts and ensured that there will be no traps. At this time, Ye Ming announced at the celebration party that the third installment of Fast and Furious will be looking for suitable opportunities to start in the near future.
Photography.
The specific time is to be determined, but it should be officially launched in the first half of the year.
The Fast and the Furious is quite profitable, but the second installment was a loss of blood. This is the last thing Universal wants to see, and the last thing it wants others to mention.
If we use this to attack Universal now, it will basically be one hit at a time, which has almost become Universal's weakness.
In fact, Universal is also very innocent. Ye Ming is in a coma. It doesn't mean that he has really abandoned Ye Ming, right?
Who made Ye Ming unconscious? If Ye Ming was not unconscious, no one would not cooperate with Ye Ming on such a matter.
And regarding a problem like this, who knew that the performance of a road movie like this would be so different without Ye Ming.
Ye Ming seems to have an innate dominance over Fast and Furious.
Therefore, under such a situation, Universal directly approached Ye Ming for cooperation at all costs.
Regarding such a problem, Universal offered Ye Ming very generous conditions.
If these conditions were announced, they would definitely cause a sensation in the entertainment industry. However, there are provisions in the contract, and some things cannot be announced directly.
But Universal and Ye Ming have actually signed a contract to work together on the third installment of The Fast and the Furious. Such news is quite explosive.
Ye Ming returns as the king. He takes charge of Fast and Furious again. This is the third Fast and Furious movie, and it is also the second Fast and Furious movie that Ye Ming has mastered. This kind of movie takes it to a higher level.
Or should we say it is knocked to dust? It all depends on the performance of the third part.
Therefore, under such a situation, some reporters are actually very concerned about what a movie like this is like.
After Ye Ming completed the signing, he actually asked a question like this when being interviewed by reporters on site.
What will the third Fast and Furious movie be like? Ye Ming will not spoil it. What he hates the most is actually spoilers.
But after thinking about it for a while, I told everyone: "The third part of Fast and Furious will have a brand new beginning.
Moreover, the main story of this third part does not take place in the United States. The first two parts are both in the United States, but for this third part, I plan to come to Japan. This is also a change of taste for everyone.
Bring some fresh elements.
I think everyone also wants to see a different kind of speed and passion."
Change the place, this is not something ordinary people have the courage to do, but Ye Ming is very clear that this third film should come up with some new tricks, otherwise, a simple road movie will be too fast
There will be aesthetic fatigue.
On this point, Bob didn't say anything. Because this was Ye Ming's condition, and Ye Ming wanted a lot of power in this situation.
Of course, it is also because Bob and the board of directors of Universal have great confidence in Ye Ming. Therefore, under such a situation, Ye Ming would announce some news so unscrupulously.
Of course, Ye Ming has a guaranteed box office. If an ordinary director dares to do such a thing, Bob will teach him how to behave in minutes.
On the other hand, the reporters at the scene also felt that this time it was too timely.
I originally thought it was just a grand celebration party, but who would have thought that in the environment of such a celebration party, Ye Ming actually signed a contract with the boss of Universal Pictures for the third installment of The Fast and the Furious.
You must know that this is not a contract signed with the boss of Universal Music, but a contract with the boss of Universal Movies.
A truly big-shot film group in Hollywood.
Moreover, the second part of The Fast and the Furious was criticized a lot. Basically, the reputation accumulated in the first part can be said to be completely destroyed in the second part of The Fast and the Furious.
Universal has been criticized by movie fans to this day. No one likes to be scolded by others online.
However, the cast of Universal's The Fast and the Furious Part 2 is not bad, and although the special effects may be a little worse, they are still above the passing level, but they are not up to par, or even far from the first part.
degree.
And under such a situation, nothing can be more touching than re-signing the contract with Ye Ming for the third installment of The Fast and the Furious.
This is a timely blessing for Hollywood.
This is a very good opportunity for many artists on the scene.
The Fast and the Furious is still a Hollywood blockbuster. If you can play a role in it, even a small supporting role, it will be enough to show off.
I didn’t see the later Mr. Fan, Xiao Li, who had a similar name to Mr. Fan, or even Xiao Yang who eventually took over Huang Er Ge, and openly appeared in some roles in foreign movies.
Although in the early days they were just walk-on roles, it could be considered a compromise between Hollywood movies and Chinese movies.
However, in fact, everyone who attended the celebration banquet knows that if you are talking about participating in Fast and Furious, it is definitely not as simple as a one-shot and two-shot extra.
At this time, it should be a supporting role with a certain role, rather than a side character like a friendly guest appearance.
Apart from anything else, it can be seen that the person in power in this movie is Ye Ming. Ye Ming will never let an actor from his country just play a supporting role.
Therefore, in fact, when Ye Ming and Bob announced this decision and signed the contract, some artists were already thinking about it. If they could get a role here, it would be very good to go out.
A move of chess.
Being able to have a role in a blockbuster movie like The Fast and the Furious is a heavy qualification.
Even if I go to Hollywood in the future, or go to an international event or party, I will be introduced to have a performance in Fast and Furious, which is definitely a good qualification.
Just like the International Chapter, the most introduced achievement is Yu Jiao Long in my Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
This is the international representative work of the International Chapter.
Many foreigners may not know her award-winning father and mother, but many people will know Yu Jiao Long in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Of course, Han Shanping is the most respectable person who can talk to Ye Ming.
Originally, after showing up to support Ye Ming, Han Shanping was going to leave. Even if the leader supported Ye Ming, he would not be able to attend the celebration banquet until the end.
Being able to come and stand up for you is already considered the leader's support for you.
But after hearing the news announced by Ye Ming, Han Shanping actually stopped and did not leave.
This matter will naturally become more interesting.
Han Shanping brought Ye Ming over and said unhappily: "Ye Ming, you are not kind. Blockbusters like Fast and Furious should be filmed in our country.
You said, isn't it a bit unkind of you to send a blockbuster like this to Japan?"
Ye Ming smiled bitterly, looked at Han Shanping helplessly and said, "Third Master, do you think I don't want to do this?
However, you haven’t seen the script for the third part of The Fast and the Furious. If you had seen the script for the third part, you wouldn’t say this about such a thing.
This kind of movie can be shot in Japan, but it will never pass the test in China. Even if it is shot in China.
Later, we didn't even think about showing it in the mainland. There were some plots in these scripts that didn't quite comply with our rules.
If it's filmed abroad and can pass the censorship and can be screened in China, there won't be much of a problem.
But if we were actually filming in China, many things would definitely not be what you want to see happen. Some storylines would never be allowed.
Therefore, even if I wanted to do it like this, I would be powerless. It is impossible for Universal to overhaul the entire script just to shoot this movie in the mainland."
Movies like Fast and Furious have many plots that are really not suitable for filming in mainland China.
Just like the later "Detective Chinatown", why is the plot set in a foreign Chinatown? In fact, it is because the police in it basically act as a dark, even negative image.
Therefore, if this kind of plot is shot in mainland China, it is absolutely impossible to pass the review.
The speed and passion is actually the same.
The third part of The Fast and the Furious, Tokyo Drift, also had some plots that were impossible to film in mainland China.
If this kind of thing is really moved to the mainland for filming, a lot of it will have to be repaired.
As a mature film group, the final draft of the script needs to go through at least twenty reviews, and before the filming is confirmed, it also needs nearly seven or eight reviews and evaluations.
Therefore, it is very difficult or almost impossible to modify the script.
