Chapter 225 It will set a new record!

“Yes, there is a poster word that says ‘The loser plays slot machines, the big winner plays blackjack.’ Because if you want to win money in the casino, playing slot machines will always fail.”

In the elegant interview room of "Entertainment Weekly", Wang Yang and Wu Daniel Wu were both dressed in suit jackets and jeans. They sat on the sofa to accept this promotional interview. The interview reporter Chris Ritchie nodded with a smile while recording the writing. He listened to Wang Yang opposite him and continued: "Making this movie has allowed me to learn a lot about gambling. It may be a bit troublesome for me to say this. Las Vegas will not let me go."

Chris Ridge immediately smiled, looked at the serious frowning director, and said, "I heard that the casinos in Vegas are very civilized." Daniel Wu also laughed and said, "I know a little, Yang, nothing will happen." Wang Yang spread his hands angrily and said, "You misunderstood what I mean, I mean being blacklisted by Las Vegas."

"Actually, I don't need to say that everyone knows that it is very difficult and almost impossible to let slot machines spit out money. There is only a slight chance of single games. But everyone thinks that they are the lucky ones, and they always have the luck of "try it once", or to find excitement..." Wang Yang said, paused and smiled: "But blackjack is different. In the case of suitable card deals, it can have skills. Calculating cards allows it to break away from simple gambling and give players a chance to succeed."

Chris Rich wrote and asked again, "What made you choose to shoot such a story? Do you want to say something through it?"

"I definitely have something I want to say, but it's not necessarily a traditional routine. Maybe everyone will feel differently after watching it." Wang Yang remembered the trip to Las Vegas at the beginning of last year, and couldn't help but smile and said, "And you know that Tom Willing got married last year, and we went to Vegas to hold a farewell bachelor's party, and then I played in the casino at 21 o'clock that night and won a lot."

He thought about it and couldn't help laughing, and smiled at Chris who was interested, saying, "I was drunk at that time. I thought I was counting cards because I read Ben Mozridge's "Conquering Las Vegas"; but it's not. I win money because I'm lucky. Don't learn from me! If you don't know how to count cards and don't have a professional team, there is no difference between blackjack and slot machines."

"So in the movie, everyone will see and know what the hell is going on with blackjack cards. I promise that it is absolutely professional and operational." Wang Yang laughed. This is also a promotional selling point. Of course, in the end, it is necessary for outstanding talent to learn it. He continued to recall: "After that party, I wanted to make two Las Vegas themes, and "mit-21-team" is the second one."

"You know it is adapted from real people, legends, incredible, cool... very interesting!" Wang Yanglian nodded and smiled after using a few praise adjectives, "And then looking at the book, I said it was it, I want to shoot it! Later, I contacted Ben and Jeff-Ma, and the whole story and details were slowly established. Jeff!" He turned to look at Daniel Wu and said, "Jeff is incredible! He is like a living calculator."

Daniel Wu nodded, thinking about some things on the set, and continued to laugh, "Jeff has a nickname called 'Intel Chip'. During the filming, he taught me how to count cards, and I was shocked." He opened his mouth and said with a surprised expression, "I can't keep up with his thinking speed at all, I think he is really cool! It's not easy to act like this kind of cool. Yang will 'cut, no-good!' all day long."

"I was a little surprised." Chris Rich shook his golden hair slightly and held a bead-brush pen to indicate that it was not a question and answer, saying, "In school, Asian, especially Chinese, mathematics are the best." When talking about such topics, she smiled with no malicious sincerity and smiled in an interesting tone: "In the past, every time I met a new Asian friend at school, I would say 'You are not allowed to laugh at my math!'"

Wang Yang and Daniel Wu both laughed. Her good conversation skills made them not feel unhappy. And this is a fact. It can be said that Jeff Ma, a Chinese math genius, is very "screen persuasive". Good mathematics is one of the major tags for Asians in this country. They are also proficient in a musical instrument (violin or piano), Chinese kung fu, and open a restaurant at home...

Those labels such as stereotype, lack of personality, and following the rules are hated and confused by most Asians. Lin Yibin hated, Ma Kaiwen hated, and Daniel Wu hated...

Wang Yang also hated him very much. He hated others to evaluate him since he was a child. He was covered with Chinese blood. Those values ​​such as diligence and family are loved by him and are born to exist in their bones and are indelible. But he is by no means a rigid person, so he thinks that he is sometimes impulsive and desperate, and he never wants to be a Chinese with such a model robot image since he was a child.

Rebellion and maturity are the "things" he didn't focus on in "mit-21-team", but he was a little bit intimate.

"Actually, I had the opportunity to be a mathematician, but when I saw those numbers and symbols, I would have a headache." Wang Yang said seriously. Christie Ridge smiled suddenly. Daniel Wu shrugged and said, "I have never been a good source of study since I was a child." Christie Ridge stopped this topic and wrote the beaded pen again on the paper, asking, "Yang, how do you evaluate this movie yourself? Do you have any expectations for it? I have to say that gambling table movies are never easy."

"I know." Wang Yang nodded, his face full of confidence. If he had not become a shrimp insect man, then this movie would have been successful! Let the fans have more guarantees, after all, his guarantee has not lost his credit yet. Thinking of this, Wang Yang did not have the humility of Chinese people. He looked at Chris Ritchie's eyes and smiled: "Ok, let's make it clear! I believe "mit-21-team" will create a new record of the type, and it will do it!"

Chris Rich's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but say a wow. This sentence doubled the value of the entire interview! She was afraid that Wang Yang would not ask, so she would not ask this question in an editorial space, and then asked: "Yang, we know that "The Devil Wearing Prada" was just finished last month. Rachel is the heroine of your first movie, Jessica is the second movie, and Natalie and Juno. All three of them are starring in your movie this year."

She asked with a smile, "Who do you think performs better in your movie? How do you judge them?"

"This question..." Wang Yang raised his eyebrows immediately, changed his seat and held his chin, looked at the female reporter with a smile, and said with a smile: "Everything is great! Can't you answer this way? One is my girlfriend and two good friends. It's hard for me to make everyone happy." Daniel Wu smiled and patted his shoulder. Christy Ritchie joked and said with a smile: "That's great! If they are happy, I'm not happy."

"Natali is a very smart person." Wang Yang smiled softly, thinking about Natali's performance and character on the set, and answered truthfully: "I am very smart and unique. She has a very high comprehension ability. She often learns from one example and lets her character give you a sense of security. Rachel is also very smart, very low-key, humble and kind. She understands how you need that character to do, and often has some ideas that make you feel 'good!'..."

A sweet face gradually emerged in front of him. Under the stroke of Chris's round beads, he continued to laugh and said, "Jessica is also very smart and hardworking. She is the pistachio on the set, and has a charm that can bring everyone joy, just like an angel."

"Yes." Chris Ritchie nodded slightly and soon asked the next question.

Although "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl", released on July 11, was not unanimously praised by the critics. The freshness of famous film reviews on Rotten Tomatoes is only 66%, but 86% of the audience's favorite shows its popularity. The box office in North America has nearly 200 million. Evaluators predict that it has received more than 500 million global box offices and has no pressure to become a new money tree for Disney. "Shocks from the Sky" is not that lucky. The 17% freshness and 54% likes show how bad it is, and its North America box office forecast is only between 50 and 60 million.

"The Jedi Men 2" directed by Michael Bay and starring Will Smith was released as scheduled on the 18th, which immediately caused a lot of criticism in the film critics, with 23% freshness, boredom, noisy, and sickness... Jon Thomson of the Washington Post said: "After "When Happiness Comes Knocking", Will Smith walked back to the path of sad old ways, without any slight clumsy performances." Rotten Tomatoes' comment was "two and a half hours of explosion and stupid jokes."

However, the audience likes "Explosion Bell" very much, with 80% likes, and there are many voices that are thrilling and exciting. It can be said that "Jedi Men 2" has exhausted the visual stimulation this summer, which has also made it embark on the box office trend of recovering 130 million yuan.

"Very Little Spy 3", "The Pentium Age" and "Tomb Raider 2" will be released on August 1st, except for "mit-21-team", it is "American Pie 3", the action comedy "The Killer", which is a new battlefield for real head-on confrontation. There are three action comedies, one campus R-level comedy and one historical sports film; and the genre positioning of "mit-21-team" is plot/comedy.

The enemy that it encountered the most was "American Pie 3". This campus film series was called the high school campus revival together with "Singing and Dance". It has been hotly reached in the summer of 1999 to today. The trilogy is finally about to end and just happened to meet Wang Yang. Many media said this is a "belated fight." The weekly box office champion from August 1 to 7 also had some suspense.

However, many media and fans are not focused on this head-on battle, not on "American Pie 3", "The Killer of the Mandarin Duck", "Very Little Spy 3" and so on, especially after the latest issue of "Entertainment Weekly" was released, they were even more excited to find the topic, and an amazing gossip was immediately revealed: "Shen Qi Yang declared war on Steven Spielberg!"

After "mit-21-team" surfaced, it was not favored by the media because of the unpleasant real type of "Las Vegas + liar + gambling", coupled with a Chinese male lead.

However, "The Hangover" released in the Christmas season soon proved that Las Vegas, a desert oasis city, is no worse than that of Paris, the romantic capital. It has a box office of 320 million North America and a global box office of 617 million to be the box office rankings that look ahead to the "Las Vegas" theme; the "Eleven Arhats" directed by Steven Soderbergh, with a huge star, has 183 million North America, and 450 million globally, which can only rank second far.

This was a successful pathfinder and attack. The crazy hilariousness of "Hangover" made the movie fans' confidence in "mit-21-team" suddenly increased a lot, and then this time it was finally the turn of liars and gambling.

The one that occupies the championship in the box office rankings of "Scammers" is also adapted from real stories, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, and Christopher Walken. The same PG-13 level, plot/comedy category, the difference is the production cost of 52 million yuan. Its final box office is 164 million yuan in North America and 352 million yuan in the world.

The next list is the world's 183 million "Gambling Man Ma Huali", 90 million "White People Can't Jump", and 98 million "Baofinger Plan"...

Now Shenqi Yang said that he wanted to "create a new record of type"! According to the logical thinking of gossip media, the meaning of this sentence is naturally to say, "We must defeat "Escape from the box office record!" At the beginning, some gossip media raised the showdown topic of "Shenqi Yang wants to show off against Spielberg in a distance". Now this confident expectation seems to be a response.

"Wang Yang can't wait to challenge Spielberg's status? He is too ridiculous!" Many netizens expressed their opinions in the comments on this gossip news on the Internet. Challenging status is an exaggeration, but few people are optimistic about this "breaking record" this time. Let's take a look at the cast, the male protagonist Daniel Wu and Leonardo DiCaprio, who is Daniel Wu?

Morrison-c left a message: "It seems that Oscars made him proud and stupid. A trophy will not guarantee a box office of 352 million yuan! I really look forward to seeing him speechless." Amy replied in a retort: ​​"There is no such meaning at all, but these boring media are misinterpreting it. I have seen too many of them."

"The record is broken!" Catherine seemed very supportive. She wrote: "I like Shenqiyang's confidence so much. Because we can, we dare to say that! Anyway, I have bought pre-sale tickets. Don't you go and watch it?" Carlisle replied: "In fact, my circle of friends has been looking forward to this movie for a long time. This story is very cool when I hear it..."

It is not only Wang Yang and Daniel Wu who were interviewed. Other starring actors in "mit-21-team", Natalie, Rachel and others also depend on their popularity, and they have conducted interviews and reports on big newspapers and magazines, some city tabloids, and websites.

"This is an unforgettable and extraordinary experience, a very rare opportunity. It feels really wonderful and relaxing when filming under a young director who is only one year older than you. It seems that he doesn't feel the pressure at all. 'Where is the director? I haven't seen him come to the set for so long.' Our set is full of laughter every day, and Young, Natalie always has those very funny jokes."

In an exclusive interview with the Chicago City News, Alexis Bradell replied, "What is it for you to star in this movie?" When talking about the relationship with Joshua Alba because of this movie, Alexis said: "He is a very hardworking and goal-oriented person. This makes me feel very good. Our relationship is very stable now."

"I'm really disappointed! I'm so disappointed!" In the spacious and warm living room, Joshua leaned on the sofa with a depressed look on his face, holding the remote control and kept pressing it, saying, "I really didn't expect him to rape! If he wants to play an extramarital one-night stand, how much does it cost to call a prostitute? How much does it cost to pick up girls in the bar?! Do you want to use this worst way? Oh my God, Kobe is so stupid!"

What Joshua was angry about was Kobe Bryant's accused of rape. Many Lakers fans couldn't accept this reality. Wang Yang was surprised when he first learned about it, but he felt a pity. He shrugged and said, "I'm waiting for the ending of this matter to make a judgment. But Joshua welcomes you to turn to the Warriors' arms!" Joshua waved his hand without spirit and said, "No, I'm still a Lakers fan in the future, but I'm no longer a Kobe fan. Even if I commit adultery, it's awful."

He switched several channels and suddenly laughed, "Yang, can't I let me watch "mit-21-team" first? This is too shameless. I'm also a production assistant!" Wang Yang thought about something and said with a smile: "Not this time, I'll talk about this when you are the producer. Today I'll call you here, man, there's a very, very important thing to ask you."

"What's the matter?" Joshua was curious and repeated, "It's very, very important!" Wang Yang nodded, and looked around. Although he knew that Jessica would not come back suddenly when she went out to take a dog, be careful! He got up and walked to the back garden: "Follow me!" Joshua turned off the TV and stood up to follow, and asked with a gossip, "Yang, I've seen news these two days that you declare war on Spielberg. Is this true? What's going on?"

Wang Yang's current mind is not on these gossips at all, and he responded casually: "I don't know, life is like a box of chocolate, you will never know what the next one is. I don't know what's going on."

While they were talking, they came to the garden and sat down at the chair beside the sycamore tree. Wang Yang looked mysteriously to Joshua's ear, muttered and explained clearly, and smiled excitedly, "How is it? Do you have any opinions?" Joshua looked stunned and said, "You, you, you want..."

"Shhhh! You must not say it out! Don't mention anything about this to anyone!" Wang Yang's expression slowly became serious, his eyes were full of murderous aura, and he said, "If any rumors leaked out, she was not surprised when I proposed! I will tell Ali, you have been married before! I told her that you worked so hard to pick up girls! Yes, this is a threat!"

"Oh Yang, you're so cruel..." Joshua immediately covered his mouth in panic, and a vague voice came out from his fingers: "You can't do this!" Wang Yang urged: "Then you should help me quickly!" Joshua scratched his head helplessly, and said in a difficult way: "But I don't know what kind of ring she likes? Why not test her directly?"

"Okay, then I'll test Ali's attitude towards your marriage, right?" Wang Yang also smiled and suddenly said seriously: "Look at me if she has mentioned it before! Do you like to have diamonds? Or all silver? How big is it if there are diamonds..."
Chapter completed!
