Chapter 78 The deadline has expired

The poster walls of the cinema are covered with movie posters being shown. Since it is now Halloween, most of the posters are in a dark style, and you can tell at a glance that they are creepy horror movies.

"What movie is good to watch?" Wang Yang looked at Jessica in a denim costume next to him, and then looked at the poster on the poster wall. Although the crew had a lot of affairs, Wang Yang was not so busy that he had no time to watch a movie at night. They had not met or dated for a long time. He would rather sleep late and make up for the time than ignore the girlfriend who had not seen him for a month and a half. He also wanted to take a break.

So he kept Jessica in Los Angeles immediately, with a traditional date mode of dinner and watching movies, and then came to this cinema. But the blockbusters are waiting for the Christmas schedule next month. The latest movies are horror movies, and some old movies, "American Beauty"? It's very profound and cruel, but obviously not suitable for watching on dates. They all like to watch relaxing comedy romances on dates, but no, it's not a suitable time to watch movies now.

Wang Yang's eyes stopped on a poster with an empty office in the middle, which read "DV horror movies are back, the supernatural phenomenon in the office! Do you still dare to watch this time?" He turned to look at Jessica and smiled and said, "Why not watch "Ghost Records 2"?"

"Ghost Records 2" was officially released the week before. Lionsgate has placed great hopes on this sequel, including copyright fees, with the production cost as high as 10 million. Compared with "Ghost Records 1", the cost has surged by a thousand times, and the number of painting academies opened in the first week was more than 2,500. Wang Yang didn't have any special feeling about this movie, because he did not participate in any work throughout the entire production process. But he naturally still hoped that the box office would be sold. First, he thanked Lionsgate and did not want them to mess it up; second, he had a box office dividend of 20%.

However, its first week's box office was only more than 9 million. Although it ranks second in the weekly ranking, it seems that there will be no problem in recovering the cost, but the possibility of creating another miracle is very low. After the craze of "Singing and Dance", young people almost forgot "Ghost Record". When they mention this movie, they think of the name "Wang Yang", and their attention is all focused on it, but now the director is not Wang Yang? Even though Lions Gate is working hard to promote it, there are still not many young people interested.

Especially when the film reviews were not good, the Los Angeles Times commented: "After watching "Ghost Records 2", you will find that it is so boring. The whole movie is filmed with film filming techniques, rather than the DV technique, and it also loses the reality of the pseudo-documentary. What is the DV technique? Just look at "Ghost Records" to know."

Looking at the weird poster, Jessica nodded in so-called "It's good to be scared." Wang Yang shrugged and said, "Just say, you know I don't like watching horror movies very much; and I hate Lion Gate, they don't let me direct it! Don't watch it." Jessica smiled and gave him a blank look, saying, "What are you watching?" Wang Yang took a step back, wrapped his hands around his chest and said, "You can make an idea."

Jessica glanced at the poster wall with interest, and suddenly saw a poster with Brad Pitt. She remembered Wang Yang that he liked Brad very much, so she pointed to the poster and asked, "How is this movie? "Fight Club"." Wang Yang looked at it and couldn't help but praise, "Wow, Brad Pitt, David Finch, I like it! But I heard that this movie is very violent, do you like it?" Jessica pouted her lips and performed a hideous expression, and said, "I just like violence!" Wang Yang smiled and nodded, "That's great!"

The ticket hall itself was empty and there was no one. Wang Yang didn't have to queue up and went directly to the ticket window to buy tickets: "Hello, give us two tickets to "Fighting Club"."

"Ok!" The young ticket seller looked at the two of them while holding the ticket, and immediately looked puzzled, saying, "You look familiar, like..." A black-haired Asian boy and a mixed-race beauty of brown hair are rare. He thought about it for a moment and was surprised and said, "Oh, are you Yang and Jessica?"

Wang Yang and Jessica looked at each other and smiled slightly. Wang Yang took the ticket to pay, and said curiously to the ticket seller: "Yang and Jessica? Are we really that similar? Many people have said so." He greeted Jessica and walked to the screening room: "Mary, let's go!" Jessica followed him and smiled sweetly: "Okay, Danny!" After walking away, Wang Yang said in confusion: "Why do you call me Danny? Woolwoo!" Jessica couldn't help laughing and said: "I don't know your other names." Wang Yang smiled and said: "I don't have one, give me one?"

Mary Danny? The ticket seller frowned, looked at their backs as they walked away, and suddenly shouted: "You are!" Seeing the two disappeared from the corner, he withdrew his gaze and said to himself: "It must be, Yang has been filming "When Happiness Comes Knocks" here recently, I don't know how the filming is..."

Looking at the big screen in front, Wang Yang reached out and grabbed a hand from a large bucket of popcorn in Jessica's arms, stuffed it into her mouth and chewed it, while asking softly: "Jessica, has Joshua asked you?" Perhaps because he knew that Jessica was about to return to Los Angeles, Joshua called Wang Yang again two days ago, hoping to get the party venue. The last party failed and he lost all his face. He wanted to win a game back.

The screening room was empty, and there was no one around them, and no one would ask if he spoke softly. Jessica looked at him and said in confusion, "What are you asking?" Wang Yang picked up the Coke and took a sip, and said, "Nothing, that guy has been pursuing a girl who looks very much like Britney, he wants to show off and hold a party at our house. He has been planning for a long time." Jessica frowned and looked a little angry, "He doesn't think about it! Another girl, looks like Britney? What are he thinking?"

Wang Yang spread his hands and looked at her and smiled, "Britney does have great attraction. Of course, I am not inside. There is a girl named Jessica who is like the center of the earth, firmly sucking me..." Jessica smiled and glared at him, saying, "Yang, I hate sweet words." She smiled a few times, then shook her head slightly and said, "Joshua just doesn't do serious things. He is almost 18 years old, not a child! He can't go to college, it's time to think about his future. He hasn't had a role yet!"

Looking at the evil Brad Pitt on the screen, Wang Yang smiled and said, "He said Miranda doesn't give him a chance to audition, so you can't blame him." After a pause, he comforted him: "Jessica, everyone will find their own way out, you don't have to worry. Maybe that girl like Britney is the source of Joshua's efforts. You know, boys often work hard for the girls they like, like me, haha!"

Although he knew he was coaxing him, Jessica was still sweet in her heart. She nodded and said, "Well, I hope he can make progress this time."

Jessica stayed in San Francisco for a few days before going back to Los Angeles. During this period, she also played an extra in "When Happiness Comes Knocking the Door". She had no lines, but just a passerby walking on the street in the camera, watching it inadvertently, and could not see it.

The crew is filming every day, and the street scene shots are almost complete, with only a few sets of last shots left. Chris Gardner was officially hired by the stock brokerage company and was so happy that he couldn't extricate himself from the crowd; Chris hugged his son tightly and cried with joy... These were all taken until the end, and the crew turned to filming indoor shots, including those in the company, those in the church, etc.

But as the end of November approached, the crew had to announce a few days off along with the Thanksgiving holiday. Because Wang Yang needed to go to New York to appear in court for his intentional injury case. Cole Langston seemed to have received strong support from his paparazzi company and hired a well-known barrister in the industry. Moreover, the evidence of the video in the hospital was conclusive. Wang Yang smashed the camera and hit people first. If it was a case of a general nature, it was handled with precedent. The judge might knock down the hammer without hesitation and make a ruling directly.

However, this case has its own particularity. Wang Yang's defense lawyer Vincent Grant proposed that before arriving at the hospital, Cole obstructed and attacked many times on the street, delaying the time to save people, and even provoked people in the hospital. This was the motivation for Wang Yang to beat people. However, due to the lack of evidence, this could not completely convince the judge and the jury. The judge finally announced that the case would be postponed to the second trial in March 2000, giving the defense enough time to collect evidence.

Paparazzi have been waiting at the door of the court. Wang Yang, accompanied by Jessica, bodyguards, lawyers and others, has been photographed in large numbers of photos, and then it has become news pictures of major entertainment newspapers. Daily Entertainment reported: "If Shen Qi Yang is sentenced to six months in prison, what will happen? When Happiness Comes Knocks on the Door", we will not see this biopic next year; he will spend six months in prison, and Jessica will have a weak relationship with him, breaking up during the one-year period, which meets our predictions. But what is worth happy about the young director is that he is still free now."

As soon as the trial ended, Wang Yang and Jessica both returned to Los Angeles to spend a happy Thanksgiving holiday, which is also the anniversary of their love, and has passed what the media calls "one-year deadline".
