Chapter 666 Farewell(1/3)

He witnessed Manchester United's triple champion in his own eyes at the Camp Nou Stadium. Tao Xiwu followed the Manchester United team back to Manchester, and then he got two jerseys signed by all Manchester United stars. The trip was a complete success.

After flying back to Yanjing, he rested for a night and came to the editing room of Yan Film Studio.

Editor Zhou Xinxia complained as soon as she saw him: "Oh, I'm back! Do you still remember you have a movie?"

Tao Xiwu said apologetically: "Teacher Zhou, you are so responsible, this time it is really a rare opportunity."

As he spoke, he gave him a small gift.

"Don't your son likes football? Beckham's signature football!"

On August 17, 1996, at the Selges Park Stadium, Beckham scored a shocking super long shot in the match between Manchester United and Wimbledon, and he became famous with one goal.

Become a football golden boy in European football, with a reputation at home and abroad, and there are also many loyal fans at home and abroad.

Tao Xiwu, a fan of Beckham, doesn't know whether Zhou Xinxia's son is a Beckham fan, but he knows how excited and happy it would be for a puberty boy far away in Yanjing to receive a football signed by a European football star.

"Beckham?"

Zhou Xinxia's complaint was blocked by Tao Xiwu's gift, "Oh, it really cost you a lot. I have read all the newspapers, your aunt's team is really a record. The triple crown, CCTV reported it."

It is no secret that Tao Xiwu's family situation is at Yan Film Studio, not to mention that Zhou Xinxia has collaborated with him for the second work.

As soon as she talked about this topic, Tao Xiwu immediately started talking.

"That's not! The triple-champion, the first triple-champion in the five major leagues, Manchester United is definitely a dominant performance this year. Bayern, Barcelona, ​​and Arsenal are no problem at all."

"You are not here, on the day of the competition, oh hey——""

"There were 100,000 people sitting in the Camp Nou Stadium. When I was a kid, there were not so many people watching the opening ceremony of the Asian Games.

Those fans one by one.”

It has been a few years since Tao Xiwu boasted about his achievements in Manchester United's triple-championship.

While he was chatting with Zhou Xinxia, ​​Xu Haofeng came.

"When did you come back?"

"Just come back."

Tao Xiwu gave Xu Haofeng another signature football he brought, "Whose signature is this?"

"Roy Keane."

"Damn!"

Xu Haofeng screamed in shock, almost kneeling down for Tao Xiwu. He hugged the football more than a naked beauty. His eyes were full of love, and he felt that he wanted to rub the ball.

After appreciating autographed football, Xu Haofeng asked about the Champions League final again.

This time, Tao Xiwu asked him or Lu Weijian if he or she would go to Europe before going to watch football. Both of them were fans and were very moved by this proposal, but they were quickly awakened by reality.

These days, when you go to Europe, the air ticket alone will cost several thousand yuan. If you go to Europe to watch the game, including food and accommodation, the 20,000 yuan will probably not be stopped.

The most important thing is that it is hard to get a ticket to the Champions League final.

Tao Xiwu said he wanted to give two tickets to two people, but Xu Haofeng and Lu Weijian thought about it and refused. They knew it,

If the tickets that Tao Xiwu gave were in the hands of scalpers, it would probably cost more than ten thousand yuan.

They have graduated now, and they didn’t know that they could not always take advantage of Tao Xiwu when they were in school.

Last year, "Video Hall" made money, and Tao Xiwu gave them 50,000 yuan each, which made them earn their first pot of gold after leaving school, and also made them cherish their relationship with Tao Xiwu even more.

Listening to Tao Xiwu's speechless and roaring, Xu Haofeng looked fascinated.

Zhou Xinxia, ​​who was standing beside her, shook her head. She couldn't figure out why she could make these men so fascinated. Could she still look better than her girlfriend?

While a few people were talking, someone walked into the editing room.

"Korean Factory!" Zhou Xinxia asked ok.

Han Sanping nodded at him.

"Director Han!" Tao Xiwu and Xu Haofeng also asked.

Han Sanping looked kind and smiled, "I'm still thinking about coming here to see how your film is going, and when will Xiwu come back?"

"I just came back yesterday."

"Well. I feel very different when watching the game on the spot, right?"

"Oh, that's what to say"

Tao Xiwu was scratched to the itchy place when he heard this, and couldn't help but reappear.

Han Sanping listened to him with great interest and talked about football for a while before he cared about the production progress of the new film.

Tao Xiwu made a lot of money in the previous film, and Lin Chaoyang asked him to be his boss, hoping that he could make a fortune by himself.

This time he opened a new film, and Yan Film Studio posted it as he smelled it and invested 500,000 yuan in Tao Xiwu's new film "The Taoist Down the Mountain" Han Sanping was born in Emei Film Studio. In 1994, he was transferred to Yan Film Studio Studio. In recent years, he has managed Yan Film Studio with great success.

Of course, Yan Film Studio's investment is largely to show goodwill to Lin's Film. Tao Xiwu also knew in his heart that he did not have the kind of determination to make a breakthrough by relying on himself. Instead, he was under some pressure, fearing that the new film would not be well filmed and would lose someone for his aunt.

After chatting about the new film for a while, Han Sanping watched several edited clips of the new film.

"It's too early to agree on whether it's good or bad, but the film is very solid. I'll try to sign up for a Golden Rooster Award after it is released." Han Sanping patted Tao Xiwu's shoulder and encouraged him.

"Thank you, Director Han."

"Well, your film is a key project in our factory this year."

Han Sanping left after providing Tao Xiwu with quite high emotional value.

On June 16, the 53rd American Drama Tony Award was held at the Gersh Theater in New York.

The full name of the Tony Award is Antonet Perry Broadway Drama Award, which has been regarded as the highest award for American drama and musicals for more than half a century.

In the American version of "Father", he won three awards including Best Actor in the Drama, Best Supporting Actress in the Drama, and Best Scene Design.

Among the Tony Awards in previous years, "Father" has not been awarded the most, but it is one of the few works that are nominated all, which shows the recognition of this work among the judges.

Winning three Tony Awards also made "Father" a briefly one of the media's attention, and had a good publicity effect, which was conducive to the box office of this year's performance season.

Before the award ceremony, George invited Lin Chaoyang to visit the Tony Awards scene, but Lin Chaoyang politely declined.

"Father" is an adaptation of his novel, but it has little to do with him at the stage of awards. Lin Chaoyang has no intention of joining in the fun.

However, "Father" caused a lot of response in the country after the Tony Award.

Domestic media have always attached great importance to the recognition of foreign awards, and the influence of drama is definitely not as good as in fields such as film, television, and sports.

But "Father" is the first domestic work to win the Tony Award, and it is "filling the gap in related fields in China", so it should naturally be reported in a concentrated manner.

The public opinion effect caused by the award of "Father" was serious and lively in the cultural world for several days. A week after the Tony Award, the People's Art Theatre also held a special symposium for "Father".

At the meeting, Liu Jinyun said that this year they will fully promote the national tour of "Father" so that more viewers can see excellent works like "Father".

As the summer vacation is approaching, the fourth volume of the new book is being created. Lin Chaoyang will work at his desk in the study every afternoon and evening.

That evening, he came out of the study and heard Dongdong and Yan Yan talking about going to the cinema to watch the newly released "The Matrix" in the evening.

"The Matrix" was released in the United States at the end of March this year, and has been released in many countries and regions around the world in the following months, all of which have achieved excellent box office and reputation.

The domestic release is divided into "imported blockbusters", so it is 3 months late.

The movie has been released in the United States, with a box office of US$170 million, and a box office of overseas. Its global box office reached US$420 million, making it the highest box office film with Lin's Pictures so far.

"The Matrix" was a big success at the box office, and Lin's Pictures stated that it would create the "The Matrix" trilogy.

As soon as the news came out, Lin's Film's stock price rose in response, soaring 24% that day.

According to the estimates of professional American film institutions, this series of films is very likely to generate a profit of over 500 million US dollars for Lin's Pictures.

And this is no longer the first series of films that Lin's Pictures has sold well.

"Black Man", "Speed ​​of Life and Death", "Rush Hour", "Saw", "Scream", "Blade Battle""

In less than ten years, Lin's Pictures has created many popular movies in the fields of action and horror films.

The big sale of "The Matrix" is even more special. It not only represents Lin's initial victory in getting involved in big productions, but also represents Lin's film industry gaining a firm foothold in the field of science fiction films and enriching the production system of the entire company.

According to the film list released by Lin's Pictures, their single-film production costs have gradually increased in the past two years, and there are many large-scale investment films such as "Spider-Man", "X-Men", and "Harry Potter".

Lin's Film's expansion is getting bigger and bigger, faster and faster, and major Hollywood companies are gradually feeling the pressure.

"Watch a movie? It's great to watch a movie. Daddy will take some time to accompany you tonight."

"Ah? You're going too?"

Listening to the old father's words, Yan Yan's tone was a little surprised.

For some reason, Lin Chaoyang felt like he was shot in his chest. Am I being disliked?

"Can't dad go?"

Yan Yan hesitated for a moment, "Yes."

My daughter clearly said "can", but Lin Chaoyang couldn't be happy.

He waved his hand in vain, "Forget it, you guys go by yourself."

Seeing that the old father was in a depressed mood, Yan Yan hurriedly stepped forward and acted coquettishly, which made Lin Chaoyang feel a little better.
To be continued...
