Chapter 642 642. Premiere Response

"What is it?" Looking at the tightly wrapped package in Nie Wei's hand, Shu Chang couldn't help but asked curiously.

"How about you open it?" Nie Wei said smoothly. This was originally given to her. It would be more interesting for Shu Chang to open it himself.

"Is it okay?" Shu Chang heard this and was a little eager to give it a try, but he was afraid that it might involve something important to Nie Wei, so he was a little hesitant.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a gift from a friend. You can open it." With that, Nie Wei handed the package to Shu Chang.

With Nie Wei's guarantee, Shu Chang did not hesitate and started to unpack the package with curiosity and excitement.

The outside was wrapped in a black plastic bag that was very concealing, and the quality of this plastic bag was very good. Shu Chang couldn't even tear it open for a while, so Nie Wei handed her a pair of scissors to cut the plastic. Packaging bags.

However, after opening the dark and difficult-to-tear packaging bag, the contents inside instantly made Shu Chang's eyes light up.

The white box in sharp contrast to the black packaging bag is exquisite and even like a work of art. Whether it is the purity of the color or the exquisiteness of the dark patterns, it shows that this box is extraordinary and even comfortable. There is a feeling that this box alone is It can be given as a gift.

So what exactly is inside such a beautiful box? Shu Chang couldn't help but become more curious. She even felt her heartbeat speed up when she opened the box because of anticipation.

Finally, Shu Chang opened the box. When the white wedding dress came into her eyes, Shu Chang covered her mouth with both hands, looking surprised and disbelieving.

"This is a wedding dress. Is it the wedding dress I wore this morning?" Shu Chang looked at Nie Wei with bright eyes. Even though he already had the answer in his heart, he still looked at Nie Wei and confirmed it as if he couldn't believe it.

"Because it looks so beautiful on you, I really want to buy it for you. Do you like it?" Nie Wei asked with a smile.

"Yeah!" Shu Chang nodded, too happy to speak.

She really didn't expect that Nie Wei would buy this wedding dress and give it to her. Holding the white wedding dress and feeling the lightness of reality in her hands, Shu Chang felt as if she was immersed in happiness.

In the next two days, Nie Wei lived a very happy life. The couple was very sweet. Especially in the United States, no one could recognize them. It allowed Nie Wei and Shu Chang to have fun for two days and go shopping. Shopping, looking for delicious restaurants, and even taking time to go to Disneyland.

Such a leisurely life is simply unimaginable in China. Nie Wei finally understood why those big stars always like to travel abroad, because no one knows them so they can temporarily return to the lives of ordinary people. For stars, This is undoubtedly the most rare.

The two days of travel were fun, but Nie Wei had to work again soon. On the third day, it was also the day when Nie Wei took Shu Chang to attend the premiere of "The Lonely Agent" here.

It was said to be a premiere, but in fact, the local theater chain convened several media to promote it, and director Nie Wei happened to be in the United States again, so he was specially invited to attend. Nie Wei originally thought that he had nothing to do in Europe and the United States. Influence, but when I actually arrived at the scene, I found that the media actually knew a lot about him.

"Hello, Mr. Nie Wei, as far as I know, you have many identities, such as an actor, a music creator, and a very successful entrepreneur with the world's largest social platform. Among these identities, what do you think? Which one is your favorite?"

The reporter who asked the question had clearly done his homework and asked interesting questions.

Faced with this question, Nie Wei did not hesitate and answered directly: "My most important identity should be an actor. I enjoy the different life experiences that acting brings me."

oh---?

There was a burst of doubts in the audience, and even the reporter who asked the question looked surprised. Perhaps in the minds of these people, what Nie Wei valued most was the identity of a successful entrepreneur. After all, this seemed to be the most glamorous.

"Your answer surprised me. Don't you value your identity as an entrepreneur? As far as I know, you have achieved some achievements in Asia as an actor, but compared with your identity as an entrepreneur, it is much bleak. , you are so successful in business, you are even famous on Wall Street." After the reporter was surprised, he immediately asked, obviously wanting to find out.

"Everyone has different pursuits. Your ultimate goal may be to become a world newspaper tycoon like Murdoch and a media emperor, but my pursuit is to become a successful actor and bring Chinese culture to the world. "Nie Wei responded calmly when asked by reporters.

This kind of question actually comes from a different starting point for each person, so the answer to the question also has a big deviation. I remember that many people in the original time and space made fun of a certain boss's "small goal of 100 million", but in other people's eyes, This is really just a very small goal.

Looking at the problem from different angles, the answer to the question will naturally be different. Nie Wei's pursuit of career success has now exceeded money, because if nothing happens, even if he does nothing now, he will be on the list ten years later. He doesn't pursue much in this respect, being at the top or bottom of the world's richest list. In fact, more of his money is invested in the entertainment world.

For example, the development of theater chains, technical support from special effects companies, etc. This was also the main purpose of Nie Wei's initial efforts to make money, that is, he did not want his future entertainment career to be wasted because of money.

That situation is what Nie Wei tried his best to avoid, because it is really the most tragic situation. It is quite common for people in ancient times who were well-read in poetry and literature to end up not being able to show off their talents due to external factors such as status and money. A wasted life.

After this reporter sat down, another female reporter wearing a plaid shirt stood up and still asked Nie Wei questions.

"As far as I know, your talent in music is even more outstanding. "Memories of the Forbidden City" you once composed has been recognized as a world-class movement by many well-known musicians in the world. You also wrote and sang "We" not long ago. -are-young" has been viewed more than 100 million times on the video website. Will you develop more in the music industry in the future?"

"Not yet, but the interesting thing about the future is that it is unknown. Maybe at some time in the future, I will suddenly become interested in music and really change my career to become a singer. But for now, what I am most interested in is still As an actor and director, I also ask reporters to pay more attention to my work "The Lonely Agent"." Nie Wei finally replied, not forgetting to advertise his film.

After all, what these media asked him had nothing to do with the movie. If he had known it, Nie Wei would not have come to the premiere at all.

After the media press conference dispersed and everyone entered the theater, Lyon, the representative of the theater, looked at Nie Wei with surprise and said: "Nie, I didn't expect you to have so many identities. It's incredible. The song "We "-are-young" I have also heard, I like it very much, it makes me regain my youth, remember to sign it for me later. "

"No problem." Nie Wei agreed readily, then said goodbye to Leon and walked into the box specially reserved for them with Shu Chang.

This box is obviously a high-end box in this theater. Not only is the location perfect for watching movies, but the configuration inside the box is also very good. There are wine cabinets and freezers, which are filled with drinks and fruits. There is even a menu on the side. Pizza and coffee provided by the custom cinema.

Interestingly, there were two buckets of popcorn specially prepared for Nie Wei and Shu Chang on the table in the box.

Nie Wei unceremoniously opened a bottle of champagne, and then the two of them chatted while eating popcorn and champagne, waiting for the movie to end.

There are also many ordinary audiences and media invited by the theater below. They are obviously more curious about the upcoming movie.

Soon the movie started.

The scene was very explosive at the beginning, and the fight between the police and drug dealers had people in the theater screaming. However, after the climax of the opening scene, the heart-warming interaction between the hero played by Nie Wei and the little girl after he appeared on the stage was very popular in Europe and the United States. The audience doesn't seem to be too convinced here.

"It's so boring. I really don't understand how there are so many things to do between a man and a little girl."

"The male protagonist looks so low, is he a beggar?"

"Why not give the previous police officers more roles? I've seen enough of the trivial things between a grown man and a little girl."

This section is actually a very popular section in China, especially among women. The bond between Nie Wei and Song Xiaomi is the main reason why they fall in love with this movie. However, many people do not understand it among European and American audiences. Some people even think that a child who steals should be sent directly to the police station instead of listening to her continue to make up lies here.

It was not until Song Xiaomi's mother was killed, Song Xiaomi was captured by the bad guys, and the male protagonist finally began to show off his skills that the audience's interest was saved from boredom.

And then the fierce editing of the film made the audience excited to watch the exciting fights. The uncle played by Nie Wei's ruthless methods were also used abroad, but in the United States, they were particularly well-received by the audience. Welcome.

The exclamations from the audience in the screening hall were unprecedented since the second half of the film. The male protagonist's precise shooting skills, cruel and concise skills, and those very black-tech special skills undoubtedly made them satisfied. Eye-addicting, many viewers watched with excitement.

When the nearly two-hour movie ended, the media and audience began to leave.

Of course, there were also media arranged by the theater chain at the door to interview the audience who came out, asking them what they thought of the film.

"A very cool movie, the hero in it is really jealous."

"After watching the video, I just want to ask, are all Chinese special forces really so powerful? I think if this is true, then our country should really pay attention."

"The hero must be using real Chinese Kung Fu. I really want to know, if Bruce Lee and the hero of this film fight, who will win?"

"The fighting is really exciting. After watching this movie, my interest in Chinese men has greatly increased. Maybe I will find a Chinese boyfriend in the future. Of course, this boyfriend must be the same as the one in the movie. Just have the same figure as the male protagonist.”

The response from the audience was unexpectedly good, and the theater manager was already preparing to open champagne to celebrate in the evening. Of course, the most important thing now is to arrange the official release of the film.

Because of the good reputation of the premiere, the theaters temporarily adjusted the film schedule and gave "The Alone Agent" 150 screens when it was officially released. This was nearly double the number of 80 screens initially promised. .

Of course, compared to the huge market of Hollywood, with tens of thousands of screens, this one hundred and fifty yuan seems a bit insignificant.

But Nie Wei was not dissatisfied. He came with "The Man from Nowhere" for the purpose of testing the waters, so as long as the results were not too embarrassing, he could accept it.

For the theater chain, as long as the box office of "The Man from Nowhere" in North America exceeded 5 million US dollars, they would not lose money.

Two days later, "The Man from Nowhere" was officially released.

At this time, Nie Wei and Shu Chang had already taken a plane back to Kyoto. After getting off the plane, Nie Wei rushed to the headquarters of Fanxing Company as soon as he got off the plane. When he was in the United States, he received news from China that Zhang Yijun had finally made his first work after two years.

This RPG game called "Gu Jian Qi Tan" will finally meet the game fans who are looking forward to it in the late winter vacation.

The official website of the game has also been basically completed. Several main characters have been announced one after another in this month, and even the pre-sale results are already very good. The pre-sale orders in half a month reached 100,000. Compared with the sales of foreign 3A masterpieces, it is naturally incomparable, but compared with domestic stand-alone games, this result is obviously not bad.

Of course, as a brand new series, many game fans are still waiting and watching. After the first batch of game experience reports come out, I believe there will be another wave of sales.

This RPG game with the same plot as the original time and space has its own differences.

Under Nie Wei's suggestion, the gameplay of this game has become much more open than the original version. In addition to two more endings, there are about a hundred more branches. These branches also bring more changes to the game. Among them, various rewards will also have different effects on the plot and battles, and even affect the outcome of the ending.

This change is not clear whether it is good or bad now, but Nie Wei thinks it should be a good change, because this is the general trend after all. Future games are more and more open, and traditional RPGs are bound to face changes.

Thanks to 0773 for the generous reward!
