On February 10, good news came from the United States. "Painted Skin" nominated the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and the award ceremony was February 28. Of course, this time the competitors are still very strong. Wang Meng understands the nature of the Oscars, and it is unlikely that he will win the award himself.

As for the Golden Globe Awards some time ago, "Painted Skin" did not even have nominated, and it seems that the commercial success did not make the judges optimistic. During that time, many people complained about "Painted Skin".

So, it’s better to do the Matrix well, so you will have confidence at that time.

Somewhere in Hollywood.

Scarlett Johnson just hung up the phone, which was called by Josh Hartnett.

In April 2005, Scarlett and Josh Hartnet fell in love at first sight while filming "Black Dahlia" and have been dating for nearly two years. There are only a few boyfriends in Scarlett who can last more than two years.

However, they parted ways shortly after getting engaged.

During this period, Josh seemed to want to reunite and kept calling Scarlett, but Scarlett had no intention.

Anyone who knows Scarlett knows that she is definitely an open and even a little 'debauchery' woman, with elevator shock, grandparent love, etc. She is all kinds of incredible things.

Moreover, with the development of his career in recent years, Scarlett's popularity has become increasingly stronger and stronger. It can be said that his career is going smoothly and his relationship is in a mess.

The sound of the phone "Dingling..." made Scarlett, who was lying on the bed, wearing pajamas, and "infinite scenery", angry.

Scarlett thought it was Josh who called it.

"Damn it, I won't agree, abominable bastard." Scarlett muttered gritting his teeth.

However, the constant phone calls completely angered Scarlett.

After answering the phone, I complained: "%￥#&..."

On the other end of the phone, Wang Meng thought she had called the wrong one, but the voice was Scarlett's.

Is this crazy woman crazy? Wang Meng muttered.

"Scarlett, can you tell me what's wrong? I'm Wang Meng." Finally, the complaints on the phone disappeared, and Wang Meng asked.

"Ah!" Wang Meng heard a scream from the phone.

At this moment, Scarlett was a little confused when he saw that the caller ID was Wang Meng's phone number.

"God, it turns out to be the king. He won't think I'm crazy, right?" Scarlett muttered in his heart when he saw the phone number.

As I said before, people are very different, and Scarlett seems to be very good at men, especially the men he likes.

The only thing I haven't gotten to is Wang Meng, who has known him for nearly two years but has never met him.

Perhaps what I can't get is what I want the most, Scarlett is looking forward to Wang Meng very much.

"Hi, king, can I say, is it really bad? God, I don't know what happened? You know, I was definitely not angry at you just now. Oh, I don't know what to say, is there anything you are asking me for?" Scarlett said intermittently and incoherently.

"It seems that you are in a bad mood now." Due to the jet lag, Wang Meng deliberately chose a Hollywood daytime. So there is no way to disturb people's rest.

"No, I thought it was...well, I thought it was a disgusting guy, but I didn't expect it was you." Scarlett stuck out his tongue a little embarrassedly.

"I understand, beauties always have all kinds of troubles, I understand." Wang Meng said with a smile.

"What about you? King? Are you the same? I will agree." After a few words, Scarlett started to chat, and it was no longer as cramped as before.

"Ahem..." Wang Meng choked and said, "Scarlett, let's not talk about it anymore. I have something to ask you for. That's right. I have a work that needs a female lead. I'm very optimistic about you. Don't you know if you have time?"

Wang Meng knew that if she couldn't afford to play affair with Scarlett, this woman would definitely make Wang Meng play without any bottom line...

Therefore, it is still important to change the topic.

"I'm Maiga, God, are you inviting me to star in your movie?" Scarlett asked incredible.

Unexpectedly, Wang Meng would ask her to play a role.

"I think it's Scarlett." Wang Meng said.

"Why?"

"No reason? I just think the character is suitable for you, of course you have the right to refuse." Wang Meng said.

"Okay, a boring man, can you talk about what role? You know? I won't play ordinary characters." Scarlett said, then smiled and said, "Of course, as long as your movie is not outrageous, I will definitely participate."

"Scarlett, don't worry, this is a cool character, it's definitely a good script. I think you will like it. Trust me." Wang Meng said.

"Really? Can you tell me?" Scarlett said.

Actually, Scarlett asked this question? It was an idiot question. She knew that there was no way to discuss a character on the phone. But Scarlett liked to chat with Wang Meng very much, so she asked this question.

"Ahem... Scarlett is like this. You know our country is celebrating the New Year. I will rush to Santa Monica in five days. I think it will be better if we talk about it when we go, and then you can see the detailed details of the script and the movie."

"Okay." Scarlett asked, "Can I know who the male lead is?"

"Well!"

Wang Meng was stunned and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, it's me."

"yes, Wang, no problem, I can promise you that I haven't taken any movies recently and have time to star in your movies. Of course, my salary is not low."

"Don't worry about this, you will be satisfied."

"Wang..." After Scarlett and Wang Meng talked, they talked to Wang Meng about that, which made Wang Meng a little depressed.

Finally, Jiang Shuying's eyes were about to kill, and Wang Meng hung up the phone decisively.

"Americans are very enthusiastic, do you know?" Wang Meng looked at Jiang Shuying lying beside him innocently.

"So enthusiastic, hum." After saying that, he turned around and ignored Wang Meng.

However, Wang Meng was so excited that he had turned around and looked at her perky buttocks. If he hadn't contacted someone, Wang Meng wouldn't be able to help him.

Gripping his teeth and twisting his face, dialing, with the phone number provided by Rob, who was at the peak.

The phone call was called to Lawrence Fishburne's agent Marvin Streqi. Wang Meng did not know Lawrence Fishburne, so he had to practice his agent according to Hollywood rules.

When Ma Wen received the call, he was confused when he saw the unfamiliar call. Of course, as an agent, he often received such calls.

Moreover, each agent has more than just one actor, but there are often many.

Speaking of which, Lawrence Fishburne is not very famous, and this life does not exist without the Matrix, which began in 1999.

Therefore, Lawrence was not as famous as in his previous life. Although under the butterfly effect, Lawrence starred in many movies that Wang Meng didn't know about.

However, in terms of influence, it is incomparable to "The Matrix".

This is the first time Wang Meng has filmed a movie that should have existed but has not appeared. Of course, this man is so, but his influence is much worse.

Whether it is the previous "Painted Skin" or "You in the Deskmate", even if you add "Butterfly Effect". These three movies are very successful, but they really have little influence.

"The Matrix" is different, and its influence is definitely among the top ten movies in the world.

Wang Meng spent a lot of effort to make the movie well. There are many things that need to be modified in the settings. Without affecting the outline and excitement, Wang Meng modified a lot.

Wang Meng also took great pains to shoot in the country.

Fortunately, China in this life is very different from the previous life. Even if there are some sensitive topics, Wang Meng's current influence plus certain minor modifications, the country allows it.

If it were the case in the previous life, many movies would not be made.

If someone dares to make fun of the president, we can't do it. If someone dares to photograph the Statue of Liberty, the White House and other things, you can try it.

In fact, Wang Meng can definitely tell that it was filmed in the United States.

However, Wang Meng's "humble patriotism" rejected it.

Many Hollywood movies always save all mankind. The aggression of this culture has a great impact. If Wang Meng changes the soup and does not change the medicine, or the Americans are invincible to save the world, it would be better not to shoot it and build momentum for the country.

(To put it off topic, it is Zuiyue’s personal experience. Last year, Zuiyue watched "Jurassic Century" in the cinema. At that time, a young couple in front of me were also watching. The woman asked her boyfriend: "If there were such dinosaurs that ran out, it would be a disaster." The man replied: "It's okay to run out. The movie is exaggerated. Human weapons can kill them. Besides, there aren't Americans? Even aliens and Americans can run away. What are you afraid of?")

This kind of words sounds terrible. Not to mention these, just talking about the cultural invasion of the Bangzi Country, how many girls from the Big Rabbit Country are obsessed with South Korea and obsessed with everything about South Korea, this is the harm of cultural invasion.

Therefore, even though Wang Meng may reduce the box office, she insists on filming in China. She will definitely shoot in China. If you can use less, foreigners will definitely use less.

Just like in "The Matrix", Wang Meng now has the inevitable starring role, white heroine, black supporting role, and his male protagonist, 80% of the rest are Chinese actors, including supporting roles.

Wang Meng wanted to conquer the world through movies and spread Chinese culture through movies.

So Wang Meng is a "someone with a little patriotic sentiment".

Of course, some people may ask, just look for Chinese actors so patriotic?

This is OK, but it cannot maximize benefits. Not to mention anything else, just look at the Hollywood special edition and the continuous Chinese actors playing supporting roles in recent years.

They paid attention to the box office of Chinese movies, so they began to arrange Chinese actors, and even every work was released to China for promotion.

This is true in Hollywood. If Wang Meng's reputation is all Chinese actors, the box office will definitely be much reduced.
