Chapter 236: The Ambition in My Heart: Using the System Cashback to Enter Hollywood
"Detective Chinatown" became a big hit, and Liu Shishi became a star. In this movie, she changed her previous dignified and elegant image and played a charming woman.
Because of this breakthrough in her film and television image, she received praise from many media and her acting range was also broadened a lot.
In order to repay Yang Hao's kindness, Liu Shishi has been staying close to Yang Hao these days when she has nothing to do.
The two of them lay on the soft big bed. Yang Hao hugged Liu Shishi's slender waist, pulled her into his arms, and stroked her buttocks, falling into deep thought.
Yang Hao now feels more and more that the max physique bestowed on him by the system is not simple. He even suspects whether the max physique has turned him into some kind of panacea.
Why is it that these good friends, with whom I have increasingly close relationships, seem to be watering flowers, becoming more and more beautiful?
Their figures and looks seem to be transforming towards max physique.
Liu Shishi was one of the women with whom he had spent the longest time and had the most times with her, and this was most obvious in her.
Yang Hao remembered very clearly that Liu Shishi's figure was skinny before, and saying she was an A was a compliment to her. But now Liu Shishi's size has obviously improved. This bear is almost a B plus, and if squeezed a little, it can be used as a C.
As for the buttocks, they were so perky that if Yang Hao hadn't been able to get his hands on them, he would have even wondered if she had used some technology or some hard work.
The same is true for Da Mimi. Her hairline seems to have moved forward, and her cheek contours are softer than before, and she looks more and more like a fox.
Ever since the fairy followed me, her buttocks have become bigger and plumper, and very feminine.
Originally, Liu Shishi was nestling in Yang Hao's arms, squinting her eyes and enjoying Yang Hao's caress, but the big hand on her buttocks suddenly stopped stroking. Liu Shishi raised her head and looked at Yang Hao in confusion, only to find that Yang Hao seemed to be distracted.
"Hmph! Are you thinking about that vixen again?" Liu Shishi was immediately very angry.
A man and a woman are lying alone in bed. How could you be distracted at this moment?
Who are you looking down on?
Liu Shishi felt humiliated. She snorted coldly and pinched the soft flesh on Yang Hao's waist in dissatisfaction.
At this time, Yang Hao came back to his senses and saw Liu Shishi pouting her bright red lips in dissatisfaction and turning her face away angrily.
Yang Hao found it very interesting to see Liu Shishi's jealous look.
Yang Hao knew that Liu Shishi was not actually angry. She was just acting like that for Yang Hao to see. She was acting coquettishly in front of Yang Hao and wanted Yang Hao to coax her.
"Shishi, I was just thinking about attending the premiere of Wolf Warrior tomorrow," Yang Hao straightened Liu Shishi's head which was turned aside. After explaining, he lowered his head and kissed her bright red lips.
"Hmm~Hmm..." Liu Shishi pretended to resist for a while, but when she saw that her resistance was ineffective, she put her hands on her chest and wrapped them around Yang Hao's neck, enjoying the kiss to her heart's content.
"Huff, huff..." After a long while, the two let go, and Liu Shishi was breathing heavily.
At this moment, how could Liu Shishi still look as angry as before?
She was delicate and beautiful, with rosy cheeks. She looked at Yang Hao passionately with a pair of eyes as clear as autumn water. Her slender legs were unconsciously brought together and intertwined.
It took four or five minutes for Liu Shishi to recover from this state.
"The premiere of "Wolf Warrior"? Is this the movie you invested in?" Liu Shishi perked up when she heard Yang Hao talking about the movie.
"Yes, I have a considerable stake in this movie," Yang Hao briefly recounted the process of his investment in this movie.
After listening to Yang Hao's story about how he got investment for the film, Liu Shishi's eyes lit up.
She was very curious at this time about what kind of movie "Wolf Warrior" was that made Yang Hao go to so much trouble to get investment.
Yang Hao’s vision for film investment is definitely No. 1 in the industry.
Looking at the movies invested by Yang Hao, the one with the lowest box office is "Bridget Jones Meets Seattle", but it also had a box office of more than 6 million yuan. Movies such as "Knife of the Assassin" and "Charlotte's Troubles" all started at billion yuan, and the "Detective Chinatown " which is still in theaters has a box office of more than billion yuan.
"Can you take me to the premiere of Wolf Warrior?" Liu Shishi hugged Yang Hao's arm tightly, and the little bear squeezed Yang Hao's arm, shaking it and acting coquettishly.
Liu Shishi has now opened her own company with the help of Yang Hao. Although Yang Hao's resources are very impressive, a company certainly cannot rely entirely on Yang Hao's resources. It is very necessary to use Yang Hao's relationships to expand her own network.
I think that if Yang Hao can pay attention to this movie, then Wu Jing, as the director and leading actor of this movie, should be a very powerful person and it is necessary to get to know him.
Liu Shishi's little thoughts were all written on her face, and Yang Hao could see through them at a glance.
However, Yang Hao was not disgusted. He was never stingy with his women.
"Okay, then I'll take you there tomorrow," Yang Hao agreed with a smile.
"Detective Chinatown 3" has not been taken off the screen yet, and the most discussed topic in the circle right now should be "Detective Chinatown 3". If Yang Hao brings Liu Shishi to the premiere of "Wolf Warrior", I think Wu Jing will be very happy.
-
The premiere of "Wolf Warrior 1" was held at Wanda Cinema in the CBD of Beijing.
Wu Jing is not very famous in the circle nowadays, so the premiere was not very large in scale. Only Yu Nan, Ni Dahong, Wu Jing, Xie Nan and several other leading actors of the film attended.
Yang Hao is considered the biggest name among the guests invited to the premiere of "Wolf Warrior 1".
Although Wu Jing is not very famous in the entertainment industry, in fact, in his early years, when he was in the Hong Kong circle, he starred in many popular TV series such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Tai Chi Master", "A Chinese Ghost Story", etc. In terms of national popularity, Wu Jing is actually not low.
Chinese people have always loved to join in the fun. When a star like Wu Jing appeared here, a lot of people who came to watch the fun soon gathered near the Wanda Cinema in the CBD.
"Master Liu~Master Liu..."
"Yang Hao~Yang Hao..."
When Liu Shishi appeared in CBD Wanda Cinema in a gorgeous dress with Yang Hao on her arm, there was an immediate cheer at the scene.
The huge cheers immediately attracted Wu Jing's attention, and he soon found that it was Yang Hao who came, and Liu Shishi also came with Yang Hao.
"Brother Jing"
"Yang Hao"
The two met, greeted each other, and hugged each other. Although they hadn't seen each other for a while, they kept in touch, especially the last time Yang Hao almost got Wu Jing drunk at the table, which made Wu Jing feel a sense of friendship with Yang Hao.
"Liu Shishi," Wu Jing greeted Liu Shishi again and shook hands with her.
"Brother Jing, you won't blame me for bringing Liu Shishi here without your consent, right?" Yang Hao said jokingly.
"Of course not, please come in," Liu Shishi and Yang Hao came together, which gave Wu Jing a big surprise.
The premiere must have some breaking news. Yang Hao's presence is already a great honor, and he can bring Liu Shishi with him, which is even more impressive. Now "Detective Chinatown" is still in theaters, and Yang Hao and Liu Shishi came together. Wu Jing can predict that this news will definitely make the headlines tomorrow and add a lot of popularity to "Wolf Warrior".
When a movie is released, popularity means box office.
The premiere officially began soon. Yang Hao sat in the audience, looking at the leading actors on the stage, answering fans' questions and chatting about interesting things during the filming of the movie.
During the question-and-answer session, Xie Nan knelt down before Wu Jing and wished him a big box office success, calling herself a "mistress". She also got jealous of Wu Jing's ambiguous partner Yu Nan while asking questions.
I have to say that Wu Jing and Xie Nan worked really hard to make this movie popular.
Kneeling, mistress, two women fighting for one man, all kinds of scenes are played out one by one.
Some movie premieres invite many big-name stars, and it takes several hours to walk the red carpet and take photos. Movies are usually not shown at such premieres. But for a premiere like "Wolf Warrior" with only a few stars, there are not so many time-consuming segments, so naturally the movie has to be played to increase the length. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if it ended in half an hour.
The lights in the screening room went out and "Wolf Warrior" began to play.
During an operation, Leng Feng disobeyed orders and killed a Kongbu member. He was about to be expelled from the team, but was unexpectedly accepted by Wolf Warriors. Gradually, the plot of the movie began to unfold.
Seeing "Wolf Warrior 1" currently being screened, Yang Hao couldn't help but think of "Wolf Warrior 2".
The success of "Wolf Warrior 2" is a result of the right time, right place and right people. As China's economy becomes more and more prosperous, the Chinese people's sense of pride is growing stronger, and the media is also guiding the Chinese people's self-esteem and establishing the image of a great power.
However, as the image of Wolf Warrior was over-promoted on social media, film and television dramas and other platforms, a group of people who mindlessly praised China began to appear online.
In particular, the image of soldiers is over-hyped. We often see people bragging that their comrades-in-arms can run 5,000 meters or 10,000 meters at the level of international athletes and almost break the world record. If they can participate in the Olympics, they can easily win a gold medal.
Gradually, without knowing when, the image of Wolf Warrior suddenly collapsed, and people began to jokingly call him a bootlicker.
This is probably the reason why there has been no follow-up news about "Wolf Warrior 3".
However, at this point in time, the patriotic sentiment of the Chinese people is on the rise, and shooting this type of film to cater to the market is indeed very likely to become a big hit.
In his previous life, Yang Hao watched "Wolf Warrior" in 2D. Now, when he watches it again with 3D glasses, his personal senses are very different.
I have to say that action movies are more suitable to be watched in 3D, as the visual impact is not on the same level as 2D movies.
"Maybe my next film project "The Witch" should also be made into 3D?" Yang Hao suddenly thought of this.
Although he has been in the film industry for several years and has achieved the triple crown of Spring Festival box office champion, he has never touched a 3D movie.
It’s not that Yang Hao doesn’t want to make 3D movies, but his previous movies such as "Charlotte’s Troubles", "The Richest Tomato", and "Detective Chinatown 3" are all comedies and feature films. There is not much difference between 2D and D movies of this kind.
If the film is really made into 3D and the ticket price is raised, moviegoers will feel that there is not much difference between 3D and 2D and will feel cheated. In serious cases, it may even cause the film's reputation to collapse.
But a sci-fi action movie like "The Witch", with its cool special effects, explosive fights, and use of 3D technology, is definitely a visual feast and the effect must be very good.
And at this moment, Yang Hao suddenly had a bold idea. Could he use the system's cashback capability to make a living in Hollywood?
With the rise of Chinese films in later generations, even if the domestic protection month was cancelled, American films could not make waves in China, but Chinese films could not make a big splash in Hollywood either.
However, I have a cashback system, so maybe I can make it in Hollywood.
Thinking of this possibility, Yang Hao quickly tried it in the system. Unfortunately, the system did not support issuing cash back amounts to only a single region.
That is to say, once the cashback amount is released, it will be available to the whole world. As for which region will get more and which region will get less, it depends on the specific circumstances of the movie.
It seems that even if you use the system's cash back to make your way into Hollywood, you still have to make movies that suit the American taste. Otherwise, not much of the cash back box office will be spread to the United States, and most of it will still be consumed in China.
Although the comedies shot in recent years have all performed well at the box office, they are very regional and are only popular in China. When they go abroad, they have not made any waves in Southeast Asia.
It seems that if you want to make it into Hollywood, comedies with Chinese characteristics will definitely not work.
Looking back over the past few decades, the types of movies most likely to become global hits are mostly science fiction and action films.
Perhaps the science fiction action film "The Witch" can also be accepted in the United States?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Yang Hao made up his mind to make "The Witch" into a 3D movie and release it worldwide.
It is always difficult for people to be satisfied. When you achieve a goal, you will set a bigger goal. This is the case with Yang Hao. After winning the triple crown of the Spring Festival, he is no longer satisfied with being limited to China and has the idea of venturing into Hollywood.
Just when Yang Hao was lost in thought about the movie "The Witch", the lights in the screening room came on. It turned out that the screening of "Wolf Warrior" had ended.
"Pa pa pa", waves of applause rang out from the screening room. Although Yang Hao was distracted almost the entire time, he was not stupid and still knew to applaud along.
Wu Jing then went on stage and interacted with the audience for a while, and the premiere ended.
After returning home with Liu Shishi, Liu Shishi threw herself into Yang Hao's arms and said depressedly: "Honey, is it because I have no movie appreciation level? Why do I think the movie "Wolf Warrior" is very average, but I didn't expect the audience to be so enthusiastic."
Hearing what Liu Shishi said, Yang Hao was stunned. Just now he saw Liu Shishi clapping very enthusiastically, and her little face was flushed with excitement. It turned out that all this was acted?
However, Yang Hao could also understand why Liu Shishi was not very interested in this type of movie.
"Shishi, you probably didn't notice at the time, but the boys were the ones who applauded the most enthusiastically. Although there were quite a few girls who applauded as well, it was because the viewpoint of this movie was so correct that even if they didn't like it, they didn't dare to show it," Yang Hao explained with a smile while hugging Liu Shishi.
"Wolf Warrior" is a military-themed movie after all, and it is indeed not suitable for girls to watch. There are very few girls who can resonate with this movie.
But the movie has a very positive point of view, so even if you don’t like it, you can’t say it too directly.
