With Kree's help, Xiao Yunhai's Valiant Heroes passed the review in less than two days.
Contrary to Xiao Yunhai's expectations, the American Film Review Board only gave the film a PG rating because the Kung Fu in Valiant Heroes was too brutal.
However, this did not matter to Xiao Yunhai. As long as it was not below PG-13, it was fine.
After that, Xiao Yunhai discussed with Paramount, MGM Grand and Columbia Cinemas and decided to release the film on August 21st at 7: 00 PM.
As for the premiere, Xiao Yunhai did not plan to hold one at all.
After the release date was confirmed, Xiao Yunhai was introduced by Kree to the people in charge of the two video websites. He asked them to put the promotional video of Valiant Heroes in a prominent position on their websites.
The seven days of promotion cost Xiao Yunhai 36 million dollars. It was much more expensive than Hua Xia.
After everything was settled, Xiao Yunhai flew back to Yan Jing.
By then, all the scenes of Lonely Town had been completed and Zhao Wanqing had also returned to Yan Jing to rest.
Filming for three months in a row really tired her out.
At 3: 00 PM, Xiao Yunhai walked out of the airport with Si Maqian wearing a pair of sunglasses.
Li Bing, who was there to pick them up, hurried to greet them.
Arriving at the parking lot, Xiao Yunhai saw the slender and elegant Zhao Wanqing at a glance. At this moment, she was looking at him with a smile.
Xiao Yunhai walked a few steps forward, opened his arms and hugged Zhao Wanqing tightly. He then kissed her on the lips.
Li Bing and Si Maqian looked at each other and smiled. They did not disturb the couple.
An hour later, when they returned to the villa, Xiao Yunhai threw himself on the sofa in the living room and yelled, "As the old saying goes, a dog's nest is better than gold or silver. I've been staying in a hotel in Los Angeles for so many days that I'm about to throw up. "
Zhao Wanqing brewed a cup of tea for Xiao Yunhai and said with a smile, "Oh you, smart all your life, but stupid this time. Since you go to Los Angeles so many times every year, have you ever thought of buying a house there? "
Xiao Yunhai was stunned. He then patted his forehead and said, "Why didn't I think of that? Honey, after Valiant Heroes is released in a few days, you can go to Hollywood with me. We can buy a villa there. What do you think? "
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Of course. Honey, go take a shower. Mom wants you to go home for dinner. "
Xiao Yunhai looked at Zhao Wanqing's graceful body with his lustful eyes. He then grabbed Zhao Wanqing, who was about to run away, and said with a smile, "Honey, let's take a shower together."
Zhao Wanqing, who didn't escape Xiao Yunhai's evil clutches, had a flushed face. She used a pair of charming and moving eyes to roll her eyes at Xiao Yunhai, and said: "It's getting late, hurry up."
Xiao Yunhai cheered and carried Zhao Wanqing to the bathroom.
After a while, there was a low moan that made people's blood boil.
When Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing arrived at Zhao Mingsheng's place, it was already seven o 'clock in the afternoon.
Fortunately, it was midsummer. If it was winter, it would have been dark.
Naturally, Zhao Wanqing complained about Xiao Yunhai along the way.
After entering the door and looking at the big table full of dishes, Zhao Wanqing said with jealousy, "Mom, when I came back, there were only four dishes at most. How come when Yunhai came back, you made more than ten dishes? Isn't the difference a bit too big? "
Yan Piaoyun smiled and said, "If you had half of Yunhai's appetite, I would also make more than ten dishes for you."
Zhao Wanqing rolled her eyes and said, "Forget it. I don't want to be as fat as a pig."
Xiao Yunhai took out a very exquisite jewelry box from his bag and said to Yan Piaoyun, "Mom, I brought you a gift when I went to Los Angeles this time. Do you think it's suitable?"
Yan Piaoyun smiled and said, "Yunhai, we're all family. Don't be so polite. Don't buy me anything in the future. Your dad and I don't lack anything. As long as you come back often, we'll be very happy. "
Yan Piaoyun's eyes lit up when she opened the box.
She saw a jade bracelet lying quietly inside. It was crystal clear and delicate, exuding a luxurious and gentle aura.
Zhao Wanqing said, "It's so beautiful. Mom, this bracelet really matches your temperament. "
Yan Piaoyun frowned and asked, "Yunhai, this must cost a lot, right?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "It didn't cost much."
Zhao Mingsheng said, "You don't have to lie to us. This kind of bracelet is basically the best in the world. It should cost more than 150 million. I'm right, right? "
Xiao Yunhai gave Zhao Mingsheng a thumbs up and said, "Dad, you're really an expert. I did spend 160 million to buy it. "
Yan Piaoyun immediately closed the jewelry box and handed it to Xiao Yunhai. She said, "Yunhai, give it to your mom. She's the one who should wear this bracelet."
Xiao Yunhai was very touched when he saw that Yan Piaoyun was actually thinking about his mother.
He shook his head and said, "My mom has to practice a set of health boxing every morning. It's not suitable to wear this. Don't worry, I bought a top-grade necklace for my mom. Its value is not below your bracelet. Also, Dad, I bought a watch for you and my dad. Do you think it's suitable? "
After saying that, Xiao Yunhai took out another box from his bag.
Zhao Mingsheng opened it and blurted out, "Lang Ge's top-grade wristwatch. It's good stuff."
This watch was indeed good stuff. It was made of more than 1,500 parts, and the dial was inlaid with more than 500 diamonds and 200 sapphires. It was worth 12 million US dollars.
Seeing that Xiao Yunhai was so good to her parents, Zhao Wanqing was very happy. She said, "Dad, Mom, don't refuse. You gave your daughter to him. Can't he buy something for you? "
Yan Piaoyun said, "It's just that this is too expensive."
Zhao Wanqing said, "Don't worry. Yunhai gained a lot from this trip to Hollywood. Just the patent fees from Columbia Pictures and the profits from the Magic City for half a year made him 1.3 billion US dollars. This little thing is nothing in our eyes. "
Yan Piaoyun had an incredulous expression and said, "How did he earn so much money?"
Zhao Wanqing gave her a simple explanation.
Zhao Mingsheng said, "Alright, let's talk while eating."
Sitting at the dining table, Zhao Mingsheng and Xiao Yunhai drank and chatted.
Zhao Mingsheng said, "Yunhai, ever since Columbia Pictures announced that they would take 50% of the special effects technology with you, many companies that are friends with me have called me. They want to set up a special effects team."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "No problem. The more companies that need special effects technology, the greater our profits. "
Zhao Mingsheng said, "But don't forget that your new special effects technology is about to be released. Once everyone finds out that you deliberately cheated them, I'm afraid they will be angry."
Xiao Yunhai said, "I've also thought about this problem. I can postpone the release of the special effects results to next year. After all, it's completely different from the original patented technology of the Magic City. It needs special training to learn. When the time comes, I'm going to film a disaster film. Firstly, it's to test the results. Secondly, it's to make a name for myself. After the film sells well at the box office, I'll announce this matter. It should be able to have a very good effect. "
Zhao Mingsheng frowned and asked, "What about Tianhua, Brilliant World, and the other companies?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Temporarily stop the formation of the special effects team. The special effects of the film will be done by the Magic City. My dream team has too few people. I need to transfer some of the technicians from the Magic City to join in. At the same time, I'll also let the special effects staff of these companies come over to learn. When the training is over and my film is completed, it will take at least half a year. When the time comes, even if I announce this news, I don't think everyone will be so disgusted. "
Zhao Mingsheng nodded and said, "That's also a way."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Dad, I heard that the Director of the Film and Television Bureau, Zhang Xinji, is very sick. Is that true?"
Zhao Mingsheng said, "That's right. The relevant work of the Film and Television Bureau is now being handled by the Deputy Director, Yang Li. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I see. No wonder my 'Valiant Heroes' hasn't been approved yet. After dinner, I'll give Brother Yuanyang a call to ask about it. It's best if Yang Li doesn't play any tricks. Otherwise, I'll make him suffer. " "Okay.
Zhao Wanqing was puzzled and asked, "What can you do?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I have a way."
