Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Chapter 868 I was cheated by Yang Mi again

After the preparations were done, Zhang Yimou said, "Action!"

Zhang Xiao and Deng Cao started the first filming.

"kill!"

Zhang Xiao yelled, and swung the long knife around in the air. The light of the knife cut down from above, moving like thunder and lightning fast. This is the impression Zhang Xiao left on everyone.

Ling Lie's murderous aura made Deng Cao dumbfounded, her eyes widened, her mouth opened wide, and she felt a cold meaning rushing from the soles of her feet to Tianlinggai.

He never thought that when Zhang Xiao truly became one with the character, the murderous and domineering aura emanating from him would be so strong.

"Is this really going to kill yourself?"

At this moment, Deng Cao couldn't help feeling a little suspicious.

When Zhang Xiao's long knife was about to approach Deng Cao, he had already sensed something was wrong with the other party, and his body turned half a circle to the left in a situation that ordinary people thought was impossible, and fell on the ground. Take it back.

"Crack!"

Zhang Yimou yelled, frowned and asked, "Cao, what's going on with you?"

Deng Cao came back to her senses, shuddered uncontrollably, and said: "I was frightened by Brother Xiao's murderous aura just now, and I feel like his attack is like thousands of troops coming towards me together. I can’t even move, it’s too scary.”

Zhang Xiao was taken aback when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Brother Cao, did you make a mistake, is it so mysterious?"

Zhang Yimou said: "Although I am more than ten meters away from you, I also feel a chill."

Everyone else nodded.

Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "Okay then, I'll restrain myself a little bit."

Deng Cao said: "That's not necessary, as long as I prepare a little bit, I should be able to hold on."

Zhang Xiao said: "You must not force it, my aura can be released or withdrawn, and there is no problem in restraining it a bit."

"I want to try!" Deng Cao said firmly, "If I really can't stand it, I won't slap my face to look fat."

Zhang Yimou thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, let's get ready, let's shoot again."

"Action!"

The second shooting started, Zhang Xiao rushed up again like last time, Deng Cao took three steps forward with enchanting steps, and blocked Zhang Xiao's knife with his umbrella.

Zhang Xiao was overjoyed. Deng Cao was able to block the knife, which showed that he had adapted to his powerful aura. In this way, the two of them could complete the filming step by step according to the movements they had trained before.

Unfortunately, the ideal is very full, the reality is very skinny.

Zhang Xiao thought very well, but Deng Cao was too weak. After only taking two photos, his movements were greatly deformed due to uncoordinated hands and feet, and Zhang Yimou yelled "click".

Zhang Xiao secretly sighed: "It's over!"

There is no problem with murderous aura after getting used to it, but it is impossible to improve the body coordination problem in a short period of time. Deng Cao didn't complete it this time, and it will be too bad next time.

Sure enough, the two took more than 20 minutes of filming, until after the restaurant at noon, and they only shot 1 minute of material.

But even so, Zhang Yimou was still very happy, and even praised Zhang Xiao for teaching well, which made Zhang Xiao a little speechless.

Next, Zhang Xiao's filming was completely spent in pain. He and Deng Cao directly played the cards one by one without caring at all.

A total of three 10-minute footage was shot abruptly and took ten days to complete.

Back at the hotel, Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi started a brother video.

"My wife, you really found me a good job!" Zhang Xiao complained.

Yang Mi asked: "What's the matter, didn't the filming go well?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "It's not that it's not going well, it's quite not going well. Brother Cao doesn't know kung fu at all. The training alone took a week, and when it was officially filmed, it was only half an hour of material. It took ten days of filming, and I'm going crazy."

Yang Mijiao smiled and said, "I'm sorry, husband, I forgot that your opponents are not Brother Jie and Brother Jin."

Zhang Xiao sighed: "When it comes to shooting action movies or martial arts movies, you have to find those action actors who have kung fu. When I was filming "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate" with Brother Jie, I can describe it as a tacit understanding. .”

"No matter how difficult the action is, we can easily handle it. Now we are shooting martial arts scenes with Brother Cao, not to mention a tacit understanding. If a shot can be shot five or six times, I am already thankful."

Yang Mi pursed her lips and said, "Honey, are you blaming me?"

"Don't dare!" Zhang Xiao hurriedly said: "You are the boss now, I dare not blame you, I just complain about my sulking."

"Although Brother Cao's martial arts scores are not very good, he still practiced very hard in private. I can't dampen his enthusiasm, so I can only tell you."

Yang Mi asked Du Ah: "Then when will you be able to wrap up and go home?"

Zhang Xiao thought for a while, and said: "The filming of Brother Cao and I has finished filming today, and the next thing is that Wu Xiaolei and I will share the scenes. We don't have many scenes, so it will only take a day or two!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi said happily, "That's great, we'll wait for you at home."

However, what makes Zhang Xiao even more speechless is that Wu Xiaolei's performance is not as good as Deng Cao's. The relationship between the two of them is just a relationship between teaching sword skills and learning sword skills. .

In order to thank Zhang Xiao for his great help, Zhang Yimou held a small wrap-up banquet for him in the hotel.

Deng Cao and Wu Xiaolei kept thanking Zhang Xiao for his teaching for so long.

Judging from the shooting materials, the martial arts scene between the two and Zhang Xiao is indeed at least ten times more exciting than the original version. Once it is released, the two will definitely be a blockbuster.

···
The next morning, Zhang Xiao flew back to the capital and returned home at two o'clock in the afternoon.

"Ouch, my precious girl, I miss my father so much."

Zhang Xiao walked into the living room, hugged Xiao Xinxin who was playing on the ground, and kissed her hard on the face twice.

Xiao Xinxin pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, your beard is too piercing. Can you stop kissing me in the future? It hurts."

Zhang Xiao said with embarrassment on his face, "I'm sorry, baby, it's all dad's fault, dad is going to shave now."

With a big belly, Yang Mi smiled and said, "Husband, I think only Xiao Xinxin can control you in our family."

Zhang Xiaobai glanced at her, and said: "Who said, you can still control me, otherwise I wouldn't act in Director Zhang's movie."

Yang Mi smiled and said: "Isn't it just an extra week, and it's not over yet?"

"I..." Zhang Xiao was speechless for a while.

···
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is Christmas abroad.

Zhang Xiao's animated film "Zootopia" was also released in Europe and America today. As the most powerful director in the world, Zhang Xiao's films have always attracted the attention of movie fans all over the world.

Although many movie fans don't like to watch animated movies, they can't resist the children who like them. If the children want to watch them, the parents must follow them.

As the financial crisis in Europe and the United States is still spreading, in order to allow more families to enter the movie theater, Zhang Xiao specially launched a family package. If a family goes to see "Zootopia" together, the ticket price for each of them will be reduced. It will be [-]% off.

After this huge discount came out, it immediately aroused everyone's enthusiasm for watching the movie. In the last hour before the premiere, the pre-sale box office of this animated movie in Europe and the United States exceeded [-] million US dollars. A box office miracle.

The next step is to see if the word-of-mouth of the movie can keep the pre-sale box office.

And this is exactly what Zhang Xiao is most confident in. In his previous life, "Zootopia" scored 9.2 points on a certain website, which belongs to the category of classic animation movies, and it must be similar in this world.

Sure enough, after the premiere of "Zootopia", word-of-mouth was overwhelming. In less than half an hour, more than 90.00 movie fans gave it a [-]% freshness rating on the film review website, and the comment section was even more favorable.

"Xiao Shen's animated film is simply too interesting, I give it 97 points."

"What if my two daughters still want to watch Zootopia? We just finished it!"

"My evaluation is only two words, classic."

"This animated movie can actually be watched by adults, and the characters in it are simply too interesting."

"Shen Xiao's product, as expected, every supplement is a high-quality product."

"The more than 70 US dollars is simply too straight, and my sons are very happy to see it."

"Compared with "Frozen", they are two completely different genres, but both are very beautiful."

"I think it looks better than "Frozen"!"

"···"

Seeing the overwhelming reputation of "Zootopia" overseas, major movie theaters in Europe and the United States did not hesitate to increase their productions.

At this difficult time of the financial crisis, if such a hot movie can appear, the bosses of these theaters will not let go of this great opportunity to make money.

Soon, the box office of "Zootopia" overseas on the first day came out, 1.48 million US dollars.

This box office ranked first among the twelve films released on Christmas Day, once again defending the glory of Zhang Xiao's No.1 film.

On the second day, the box office of "Zootopia" exploded, directly exceeding 2.4 million US dollars. This is the highest single-day box office of a movie since the financial crisis.

So Zhang Xiao accidentally broke another record.

On the third day, the box office of "Zootopia" made persistent efforts and won 2 million US dollars.

On the fourth day, $1.80 million was won.

···
The news that "Zootopia" is popular overseas has spread to China, which has aroused great attention from movie fans.

"Xiao Shen is awesome, another animated movie has become popular."

"Xiao Shen is not afraid, one shot will definitely be amazing!"

"In just five days, the box office of "Zootopia" in Europe and the United States has exceeded [-] million US dollars, which is too scary."

"Is this Xiao Shen's strength? It is indeed the No.1 movie in the world!"

"Zootopia should be released in China as soon as possible. I'm going to watch it with my son and daughter."

"···"

Netizens are discussing this matter enthusiastically.

"Hahahahaha!"

Inside the Beijing courtyard, Zhang Xiao said triumphantly, "Mr. Yang, are you convinced? The box office of 20 billion dollars is stable."

Yang Mi pouted, and said, "Movie fans are so poor at appreciating. Such movies can become popular. I'm really speechless."

Reba next to him said with a smile, "Sister, it's not that fans have poor appreciation, but that children like it. Otherwise, my brother-in-law wouldn't have come up with a family ticket."

Zhang Xiaodao: "Zootopia itself was filmed for children to watch, as long as they like it."

Yang Mi glanced at him, and said with a grin, "Husband, can I discuss something with you?"

Zhang Xiao's eyes showed a hint of vigilance, and he said, "What do you want me to do again?"

Yang Mi said: "Our TV station is going to hold a New Year's Eve party~~~"

Zhang Xiao frowned when he heard this, and said, "I heard that, you want me to perform again?"

"That's right!" Yang Mi nodded.

Zhang Xiao said helplessly: "Honey, can't you stop for a while? Is the current money at home not enough for you to spend, or how?"

Yang Mi shrugged her shoulders, spread her hands and said, "I can't help it. The stage has invited many artists to the party. If you, the master, are not here, it will be too unreasonable."

Zhang Xiao quickly waved his hand and said, "No, you are the owner of the TV station, I am not!"

Yang Mi raised her finger and pointed at her belly, and said, "If I didn't have such a big belly, do you think I would need you?"

"I..." Zhang Xiao was speechless.

Yang Mijiao said angrily: "Honey, please, don't worry, once the child comes out, I won't force you to attend any party in the backstage."

Zhang Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and said, "Really?"

"Of course." Yang Mi nodded, then changed the subject and said, "However, if you ask for it, then I can't help it."

Zhang Xiao laughed, and said: "The one I will cooperate with asks to participate in the party? Are you playing an international joke on me here?"

Yang Mi smiled and said, "Who can say what will happen in the future?"

Reba asked: "Brother-in-law, there are only three days left before the party, what show are you going to perform?"

Zhang Xiao thought for a while and said, "How about the sketch? Can we talk about the sketch at the party?"

"Of course I can come." Yang Mi said: "Other TV shows are looking for some small flowers and fresh meat to sing and dance, only our show has all kinds of programs."

Last year, Sunny TV held the New Year's Eve party for the first time. Because the program type was different from other TV stations, the ratings successfully surpassed other TV stations.

This year, Sunny TV also did not prescribe the type of program, but held a Spring Festival Gala-style party. I heard that other TV stations have followed suit. Yang Mi was quite speechless after knowing it.

Reba asked: "Brother-in-law, who are you going to act with?"

Zhang Xiao said without hesitation: "Mr. Song Yan, and the host, Mr. Cui Yu."

Song Yan has a very high status in the small splicing. She speaks Northeast dialect, which is very funny. Some media made a ranking of female comedians, and Song Yan has never fallen below the top three.

As for Cui Yu, he is the host of Sunny TV. The program he hosts is called "Speak Straight", which is very interesting.

So Zhang Xiao is going to invite the two of them to play a classic skit "Yesterday Today Tomorrow". Once this skit comes out, it will definitely make the audience burst into laughter.

Reba said: "Teacher Cui should be fine, but Teacher Song Yan's attitude towards sketch scripts is similar to brother-in-law's attitude towards movie scripts. It's very ahem. If your script can't impress her, she said it won't at all." considerate."

Zhang Xiao said confidently: "I will write the script now and send it to them. I believe they will agree after reading it."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi urged: "Then go and write quickly, I'll wait."
