~: Five hundred and ninety-three - stop 1

At the beginning of September, it was a piece of news released by China Film, and then after the major media confirmed that it was true news, the news began to spread rapidly in this land at an abnormal speed in a short period of time.

"The latest news from our reporter is that Wayne Greenberg, winner of the Oscar for best director, will arrive at the Capital International Airport today. We learned that this is the first time that the world's top directors have come to this land. I was invited by China Film to participate in the Chunchang International Film Festival in a few days..."

"Oscar Best Director Wayne Greenberg is the most special one in Hollywood since the 1990s. The works he shoots are usually from the perspective of disadvantaged groups in society, and there is no shortage of humanistic concerns in the films. It involves issues at the top of society. This is the first time a director of his rank has come here, and it also indicates that our films are gradually starting to attract the attention of the world..."

"Hollywood director Wayne Greenberg arrived at Duducheng International Airport this morning. According to the latest news from the reporters ahead, he will officially start his trip to the East tomorrow. And his first stop is Duducheng. Film Academy, at that time, he will gather with the students, tutors and media of Metropolis Film Academy to discuss topics related to film and Hollywood..."

Wayne Greenberg, when ordinary people see this name that suddenly appeared in the newspapers, the first thing they feel is bewilderment. Compared with those international stars who are active in front of the stage, ordinary people actually feel more and more behind the scenes. The director is not familiar with it.

But with the media hype, at least most ordinary people are aware of one thing, this old ghost is an international film director with a great reputation.

If it was just propaganda in various local newspapers that made people feel confused, then an interlude on TV's evening program quickly ignited people's enthusiasm.

"This morning, the famous Hollywood director, producer, well-known philanthropist in North America, social activist, and billionaire Wayne Greenberg arrived at the Capital International Airport and is about to start a week-long trip to the East. Wayne Greenberg Berg is this year's Best Director Oscar winner and the world's No. 1 box-office record holder..."

The short news briefing does not exceed 30 seconds, but its meaning is different to the public, especially for his title, billionaire, social activist, philanthropist, etc., each of these titles can be given to him Add countless auras.

This side is experiencing a rapid economic recovery, so it is generally hidden in people's hearts that they want to show their ideas. Correspondingly, it is recognized by the world. Such ideas permeate all aspects of society, even in the film industry.

This also caused the first international director to come here, which attracted the attention and attention of countless people for a while. Of course, there are many fans who know him well.

In many people's minds, his identity is not an ordinary Hollywood director, but also represents the identities of North American celebrities, billionaires and philanthropists. For many people in this era, he is full of curiosity and attraction. .

Now the network in this land is not so developed, but some information can always be obtained as long as you want to inquire. In a short period of time, films such as "Happy Death Day", "Escape from the Dead", "Joker", "Joker's Soul", "Batman: Time for War" and so on have become the focus of topics discussed by countless ordinary people.

Don't watch these movies, they have never been released on a large scale in this land, but the influence of pirated video tapes and pirated CDs cannot be ignored. Especially in the past two years, vcd machines have become popular in families on this land, and various CDs have become the main channel for people's entertainment.

"Boss, it seems that the release of "Batman: The Dark Knight" is far less influential than your own name!"

In the Jingcheng Hotel room, after talking with the reception staff of Warner Bros. branch, Nina shrugged and said to Wayne who was standing in front of the window. "One thing Warner Bros. and we didn't expect that there would be so much enthusiasm for your arrival here."

Before they came over, they made several publicity requests to Warner Bros. and China Film. The original intention was to focus on "Batman: The Dark Knight", the film he released here for the first time. What people did not expect was that the media Curiosity and reports about his identity far exceed that of the upcoming film.

"Mr. Greenberg."

In the hotel room, a middle-aged man in a suit smiled. "I have communicated with Ms. Klein about your itinerary this time."

As the manager of the Warner Bros. branch, Bernard Thompson has been keeping an eye on Wayne since he received this group of people. He knows better than anyone the influence of this young man in the Hollywood circle. I know the identity of the major shareholder of Warner Bros., so I have always maintained enough respect for these people along the way.

"The law and order here is completely different from North America. If you are interested, you can go out for a walk, but it is best to be accompanied by our staff to avoid some unnecessary misunderstandings." Bernard Thompson pondered for a while and found the station The young old man at the window turned to look at him, organized the language again, and continued:

"Before tomorrow morning, we didn't arrange any activities. I personally recommend that you go to the time difference first. If you have any needs, you can communicate with me in time."

"No problem, thank you." Wayne smiled and nodded.

Until there were only three people left in the suite, he squinted again and turned to look out the window, without the slightest bit of sleepiness due to jet lag.

No one knows how complicated his feelings for this city are. This is his former hometown, and there are countless memories engraved in his soul.

"Shit, Sergey, if you continue to circle in front of my eyes, I'll kick you out!" Nina shouted in an angry voice, pushing the glasses on her face and waving them in her hands. The schedule this time, whispered: "Hold your **** game console, go to your room, or cover your head and go to sleep, go now!"

The assistant's voice also caught Wayne's attention. He tilted his head and glanced at Sergey who was at a loss. He shook his head and walked back to the sofa with a smile. He ignored the two of them and grabbed the coffee table with some emotion. cigarettes.

The Russian bear shrugged, picked up his suitcase, pushed open the door of one of the suites, and fell directly onto the big bed.

The reason why this guy becomes at a loss is entirely due to the lack of security. Before rushing to the airport from Los Angeles, Wayne strictly ordered him to leave the military large-caliber pistol 1911 that he would never leave at home. For the instructor, leaving the gun is like losing most of the sense of security, which is why it seems so abnormal.

"Do you want to go out for a walk? Boss, just to check your Chinese." Nina rolled her eyes when she saw him turning on the TV, and said in a low voice, "Are you sure you can understand what is being said on the TV? Boss, I have to remind you that there is the most authentic Chinese food here."

"If we don't go out today, we still have time."

With a wave of his hand, Wayne's eyes did not leave the monotonous TV show. Everything above made him feel incomparable intimacy. "Let's talk about business, how did Warner Brothers and China Film arrange it."

"We're going to school tomorrow and there's a speech."

Nina shook the schedule in her hand and reported in a low voice. "According to what I just communicated with Bernard, this speech is very loose, and only talks about film-related topics. The day after tomorrow, we will take a plane to attend the opening ceremony of the film festival, and we are expected to stay for two to three days. At the same time, "Batman: The Dark Knight" " will have its premiere.

Then take a plane back to the city. According to the arrangement of Warner Bros. and China Film, go to climb the Great Wall and visit the ancient buildings in the city. During the period, there will be media follow-up. You know, they need promotional materials to end this trip. Before, there was one of the most important media interview programs, I have inquired about it, and the audience of this program is very terrifying..."

In fact, whether it is the campus exchange tomorrow, or the subsequent flight to the three eastern provinces to participate in the opening ceremony of the film festival, or the interviews at various events in the future, Nina and Warner Bros. The various feelings that come this time must not be mixed with a little bit of politics.

Even if the two sides of the Pacific Ocean are still in the honeymoon period, this is Wayne's bottom line, and he will not answer any related questions.

Yes, Hollywood, the so-called free land in North America, has never been far from politics. Countless celebrities also like to talk about their political views in the media, but whether in Hollywood or out of North America, Wayne never said anything about these topics.

He is not worried about media reporters asking sensitive topics. After all, Warner Bros. has been in the honeymoon period with this side for all these years, and all problems are not problems. What needs to be communicated is the school, and the Beijing Film Academy's response is also very happy. All the questions raised by the students in the question-and-answer session will be related to the film and Hollywood industry, and nothing else.

"Call that Mr. Bernard Thompson and say we have the most authentic Jude whole duck in the evening..."

On the first day of arriving in this land, Wayne did not leave the hotel, but this did not prevent him from eating the most familiar delicacies, such as fried noodles at noon and roast duck at night. These things are also available in North America, but like After leaving this land, the taste will become different, at least for him.

In the blink of an eye, facing the morning sun, Wayne walked into the Beijing Film Academy and started the first stop of his trip to the East.
