Chapter 24： Cocoon-breaking butterfly (2/2)
As Jessica revealed his brother ’s shortness, Zachary and Irene could n’t help laughing, Joshua grunted uncomfortably, rolled his eyes and said, “Hey, Jessica, it ’s like you washed yourself. , Do n’t you also rely on the washing machine? I ’m just too lazy to put it in. ”He looked at Wang Yang, who smiled the most, and did n’t care about the way:” Brother, you laugh, you laugh. Anyway, when I am an adult, Move out and live by yourself. ”
”Oh, I support you, but don't take your clothes back and let Aunt Cathy put it in the washing machine.” As soon as Wang Yanggang finished talking, he laughed and angered Joshua's head.
Jessica could not help laughing, shaking her shoulders, and said hard: ”Yang ... I tell you ... he is just going to do that!” After all, she laughed heartily.
Joshua looked at the two who sang one and he was so angry that his chest fluctuated. He took a deep breath and was trying to laugh at Jessica and said, ”Oh, you look like a couple.” , And did n’t want to make her angry, so he turned to hum: “Jessica, Jan, I said why do n’t you go to ABC for a talk show !?” He mimicked: “Oh, this is Jessica Al Baba, here is Wang Yang, welcome to watch our talk show! Our theme is 'trick younger brother!' He spread his hands and said weakly, ”Wow, it's wonderful!”
”This is a good idea!” Wang Yang and Jessica glanced at each other. He smiled: ”Hi, Jessica, shall we really go to ABC to try?” Jessica nodded with a smile. Tao: ”Okay, maybe our talk show is even hotter than Oprah.”
Zachary and Eileen could n’t bear to hear it, and said with a help: “If there is this program, we will definitely watch it.”
”OK!” Joshua couldn't think of any words to fight back, but defeated helplessly. He looked at Wang Yang and asked in a different way: ”Hey, Yang, is your movie released in early August?” Seeing Wang Yang nodded, Joshua asked again, ”How is it, man, confident?” ?”
”Confidence? Of course.” Wang Yang looked confident, and then mocked himself again: ”If I don't have faith, I'm in San Francisco now.”
Joshua asked curiously: ”Seriously, how much do you expect the box office of this movie to be?”
Wang Yang shrugged and shook his head with a smile: ”I don't know, I still say that, it is no problem to recover the cost.” Although everything is developing in a good direction now, he still keeps calm and does not let himself Blind optimism. The first DV movie ”The Witch Burley” received more than 200 million US dollars at the box office worldwide, but that was 1999; and now it is 1998, the movie released is ”Smart-Ghost Record”. These are all X-factors. What kind of path will ”Smart and Ghost Record” finally come out? Now he is not sure.
Jessica looked at Wang Yang, her big eyes full of encouragement, and the tone was definitely said: ”Yang, I believe the movie's box office will be very good, God promised me!” She said again: ”Again, Yang, You ’re so young, but you ’ll have a movie to be released soon. This is a victory, is n’t it? ”
Elin-Eris nodded and said, ”In fact, this matter has already spread in my circle of friends. If there is a movie released, they will definitely walk into the cinema.”
”Thank you!” Wang Yang thanked him and joked to Eileen: ”Tell your friends that they should be careful and don't be scared.”
”By the way, Young, did your movie go to the MPAA (American Film Association) for review? What level?” Joshua suddenly asked another question, saying: ”Will it be NC-17? Then I wo n’t be able to enter the cinema. ”
NC-17 is the level that prohibits viewers under the age of 17 from watching, and it is also the highest alert level. Generally, film companies are not willing to let their movie booths at this level. This level means that the market for teenagers and children will be lost.
While looking at the ball game on the screen, Wang Yang replied: ”The Lions Gate Company has sent the movie to MPAA, and the review result has not yet come out. I think it will be PG-13.” ”Ghost Record” is divided into PG-13 level, special counseling level, children under the age of 13 need to be accompanied by their parents to watch.
”PG-13? Then Joshua can enter the movie theater, he is just over 13 years old.” Jessica looked grateful. Joshua gritted his teeth and said, ”Jessica, I'm 16.” His helpless look caused everyone to laugh.
Laughed for a while, everyone gradually quieted down, watching the TV screen intently, because the ball game has entered the final key moment.
The game is over in less than a minute, and the Bulls are temporarily two points behind the Jazz. In the total score, the Bulls lead the Jazz 3: 2. As long as they win this game, the Bulls can win the championship and complete the three consecutive championships again!
At this time Michael Jordan made a layup and pulled the score to 85:86. It was the Jazz's turn to attack and John Stockton dribbled to the frontcourt and passed the ball to Karl Malone, but Malone was intercepted by Jordan and the game had 19 seconds left!
”Oh, God!” Everyone was almost suffocated nervously, and Jessica's voice asked a little tremblingly: ”Will the Bulls win the game?”
”Surely, the Bulls will not lose ...” Wang Yang's heart was beating fast. He also stared closely at the screen, holding his fist, and said: ”Mikeer-Jordan won't let himself lose ... sure Jordan, he will definitely end the game! ”
On the screen, Michael Jordan dribble to the frontcourt, the atmosphere of the whole room condensed, everyone forgot about other things at this moment, only the voice of the narrator on the TV.
”Michael Jordan holds the ball, Russell guards him, eleven seconds, ten seconds, Jordan, Jordan goes in! Breakthrough! Stop! Shot! Yeah !!! He shot !!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ”
Scored, 87:86, the Bulls overtake one point! With only 5.2 seconds left in the game, the Jazz called a timeout! With 5.2 seconds left, the Bulls will get their second three consecutive championships!
”Ah, wow !!!” All the five people in the room stood up with their hands raised and clapped each other to celebrate. Then, during this pause time, they stood all the way, almost holding their breaths, and did not speak.
Soon, the timeout is over, the Jazz kick off the midfield, Stockton catches the ball, took two steps and shot outside the three-point line, the ball hit the basket and bounced out! The game is over! Michael Jordan jumped with his fists, all the Bulls players and coaches rushed into the court, Pippen, Rodman ... all the Bulls players were cheering!
”The Bulls won! The Bulls won the championship again!” The commentator shouted excitedly, his voice hoarse.
”God, oh, my God!” Wang Yang jumped up in excitement, and he couldn't help but hug Jessica next to him, and Jessica was also so happy that they both laughed and jumped around each other, They are a Warriors fan and a Lakers fan. They are crazy for the Bulls at the moment. This is the charm of the Bulls, the charm of Michael Jordan.
Zachary also shouted ”Oh my god” and spread his hands to Eileen next to him, but Eileen escaped with a smile, and Zachary could only raise his hand in embarrassment to cheer.
”Haha! Deserve it!” Joshua laughed loudly and was so happy that he could not extricate himself. He was happy not because of the Bulls' three consecutive championships, but because of the defeat of the Jazz. He looked at the TV screen happily and mocked, ”Wow, haha! Look at John-Vile-Stockton, and Karl-Sunday-Malone's frustrated look, it's a happy moment! Oh, someone cried , Like a baby. Haha, so happy ... ”
When the initial excitement faded, Wang Yang let go of Jessica, just embracing the emotion. He smiled at Jessica and said with emotion: ”It's unbelievable! The Bulls have completed three consecutive championships again, which is amazing! It's amazing.”
Jessica also smiled, recalling the hug just now, her heartbeat could not help but a little faster, she nodded and smiled: ”Well, yeah. Great!” She asked with interest again: ”Yang, why did you just like that Are you sure the Bulls will win? ”
Wang Yang glanced at the extremely happy Michael Jordan on the screen and exhaled. ”How can I be sure? I was so nervous just now.” He looked at Jessica and smiled at her: ”Of course, now that the Bulls have won, I can say, 'Look, I've hit it.' But if the Bulls lose, I will say again, 'There are seven games in the finals, hopefully still.' If the seventh game If I lose, I will say, 'There is another season, I hope it will always be there.' ”
”Jessica, the most important thing is to maintain confidence. Michael Jordan now has his sixth championship ring, but when he first entered the NBA, was n’t it also suppressed by the Pistons’ bad boy team? But Jordan is now It's a legend. UU reading”Wang Yang's eyes were calm and said:” Only people with a championship heart will he win the championship. This is what I think now. ”
”Well, the heart of the championship, I know.” Jessica nodded thoughtfully.
Yes, a championship heart, never give up, be brave, and maintain confidence! Wang Yang smiled. When he got the contract of Lion Gate Company, he also gained this heart. Compared with the contract, this gain was greater.
He now has no confusion and fear about his future and his own way. What are he afraid of? During the most difficult and tiring period, he didn't fall down, he survived; he will not be afraid of any future challenges, he will continue! In another month and a half, ”Smart-Ghost Record” will be released. No matter what the box office is, he will face it even if he fails.
If he used to be a moth that threw a fire, then now, he is a butterfly breaking a cocoon.
He tried hard to publish and promoted hard. The cocoon was almost broken. As long as he kept biting, he would one day break out of the cocoon and turn into a beautiful butterfly, like Michael Jordan, The world shows its own beauty. And if it falls in the process of breaking the cocoon, it will be like Harry George, who killed his own dream and killed himself.
Tonight belongs to Michael Jordan and also belongs to the Bulls; but Wang Yang thinks that soon, he will break out of the cocoon, and he will fly to the sky, and there will be one night for him and the movie, and then, the whole People in the cinema and people in the whole city will be crazy for him, and he will be a legend when the time comes.
One and a half months before the film's release time.
