"So, today's guest group of the show should be regarded as the smallest group of people who have the least relationship with the entertainment industry in the history of our show, right?"

It's so hot.

Sitting in the guest seat, Chen Mu only felt that his mouth was dry, and beads of sweat were pouring out on his forehead.

It's not because of nervousness, although it's the first time to be on this kind of entertainment show, but even the MJ concert at the London Dome has been experienced, where is Chen Mu still nervous about such a small scene?

It's just that in the studio, when the spotlights came over, Chen Mu, who was dressed in a suit, was really a little hot.

What about air conditioning? The TV station is so picky??

"Haha, how do you say that, don't you often invite sports stars, business celebrities or something!"

Spike Lee was so familiar with this kind of occasion that he leaned back and leaned back on the couch like a leper dog.

"I've invited a lot, but I don't have such a large group of NBA big men present to deal with me alone!"

The host laughed, Spike Lee was still more accustomed to his style, and the cooperation between singing and harmonizing was pleasant.

"Hahahaha that's what I said! But don't worry, with me here, they won't bully you! First of all, you are the national host, if they dare to bully you, they also have to weigh the consequences. Secondly, I am a director and producer, and I pay for their money. If they dare to do anything to you, I'll deduct your wages! ”

"Hahaha......"

After Spike Lee finished speaking, the whole audience couldn't help but laugh, this cold joke is very suitable for stirring up the atmosphere a little.

"So, let's talk about it!"

This is "Oprah Talk Show", the most prestigious talk show in the United States, and probably not one of them.

The person who Spike Lee called the national talk show host is none other than Oprah Winfrey, a TV industry giant who can be worth a thousand dollars in a word.

The Oprah show can be said to be well-known in the United States. Signature light-hearted entertainment, laughing at the world's big and small things. The feeling of self-deprecation, leisure, and faint arrogance, which has a certain cultural foundation, but is not so solemn, is somewhat similar to the impression that the whole United States has given to the world.

The guests invited to today's Oprah show are indeed as Oprah himself said, and they are not the same as usual.

Spike Lee is a celebrity in the entertainment industry, and the Oprah show is not on the show once or twice, and he is considered an old face. But some of the other guests are newcomers.

Chen Mu, needless to say, there is no one of the hottest players in the American basketball world, even in the world basketball world. Just played a month that is enough to go down in history, Chen Mu in January trampled all the basketball players in the world under his feet, and that data is enough to leave a name in the history of the NBA.

In addition to Chen Mu, the Philadelphia 76ers also had two other people on the scene, namely Allen Iverson and Stephen Curry.

This configuration is relatively rare in most of the programs that invite Chen Mu, because everyone knows that Iverson and Chen Mu have a very good personal relationship. In life on the court, Chen Mu's best friend is Iguodala again. So most of the shows will either only invite Chen Mu, or they will call Iverson and Iguodala, a group of three.

Curry is still a rookie, although he and Chen Mu knew each other before entering the NBA, but the relationship is not so irreversible. Calling him and Iverson together today is naturally related to another movie promo that has recently become popular on the Internet again.

Spike Lee's new film "Lore" also released the latest promotional video after the official NBA monthly awards were announced in January.

In this promotional video, the characters who appear make the whole world crazy.

Michael Jackson finally appeared head-on in the promotional video.

"Incredible, I mean, really incredible."

Oprah looked at Spike Lee and said, "It's been rumored that your new film will have MJ. But we all thought that he was a cameo, relying on your previous personal relationship with him, helping to play a role, and the appearance time was only five seconds. ”

"Hahahaha, if I were a movie fan, I would think so!"

Spike Lee is naturally very satisfied with this result, and to be honest, there are not many shots related to MJ in the film that has completed post-production and entered the intense theatrical project. When it comes to all, the time for this super entertainment superstar to appear is only about ten minutes.

Of these ten minutes, at least ten minutes are devoted to describing the last ball game, and the remaining minutes are like going through the motions. Oprah's statement is not wrong, a character of MJ's level can't have such an important role in Spike Lee's movie.

Even if people look at the friendship and are willing to help with this, Spike Lee himself is embarrassed.

After all, if you want MJ to play some of the protagonists directly, the little remuneration paid by your own side is really insulting.

But sitting on a super gold mine like MJ, if you don't make good use of it, it's not in line with Spike Lee's character. So after weighing the pros and cons, Spike Lee found a more delicate balance. It can make MJ look less like a cameo, friendship and other roles, but it won't go too far and cut off the possibility of future cooperation.

What the specific amount of remuneration, Chen Mu didn't ask, and MJ didn't care. But you have to have a sense of proportion in doing things, otherwise, with MJ's status in the rivers and lakes, if you perform an important role at a low price because of your friendship this time, other directors, screenwriters, and film and television companies with better relationships will invite you in the future, how will MJ make a price?

"Let's sort out the promotional videos that have been released."

Oprah said, and a short trailer appeared on the screen.

"The first paragraph is Chen, the plot with Chen as the main line looks like a traditional competitive sports hot-blooded film, which is very emotional."

"That's the kind of plot I played."

Chen Mu smiled and nodded at the right time.

"The second part is Charles and Kenny -- welcoming two old friends -- and your promo looks like the quintessential American comedy."

"Our specialty!"

Barkley laughed.

"The third part is Allen, and that promo made me cry, even though I'm not a real basketball fan - by the way, can you ask for an autographed photo for my niece? If you do what she asks, I would also like you to kiss her name on the photo. ”

"Hahaha......"

Everyone was happy, and Iverson also smiled a little shyly, and said with wide eyes: "No problem." ”

And then there's the fourth paragraph - Spike, to be honest, is the picture related to MJ all in this promo? Not a single shot wasted? ”

"How is that possible!"

Oprah does make jokes, and the jokes are decently funny, and everyone nods and smiles. But it can use jokes to bring out the issues that everyone cares about, so that the show can continue smoothly.

"Don't laugh, there's going to be a lot of MJ-related content in the film, really!"

Spike Lee fits just right.

"Haha, we believe in you, after all, even the three generations of superstars from Philadelphia, the arch-rival, have been invited to star, and a super rookie has been brought in, I believe you can do anything."

Oprah continued to tease Spike Lee, and the four people on the side, Barkley, Chen Mu, Iverson, and Curry were all happy.

"So what kind of film is it? The news just released, you said that it will be released after the All-Star Game, and the theaters have been paved, and we are all looking forward to it! ”

Oprah threw out the most important question.

"A drama, I can only say it's a drama, but it has everything you want in it."

Spike Lee said: "The blood, the funny, the emotional, the exciting superstars are all in there." But overall, we didn't want to just make a film where everyone stared at the stars and said, 'Wow, who's so handsome'. What we want to do most is a good movie that will make you remember it before you fall asleep many years later, and you will turn on the TV on demand and rewatch it again. ”

"It's a challenge, a big challenge, and it's hard to get all these elements together so that everybody can find something that appeals to them," Spike Lee said. So far, I'm very happy with the final result, and I'm working on a theatrical version and a DVD version, and I'm going to have all the cast and crew watch it when the time comes, and I'm sure they'll give the same rating as me. ”

"What evaluation?" Oprah asked.

"Maybe not the best movie - I can't say surpass 'The Godfather', but it's definitely the most 'expensive' film ever!"

"Hahaha, the most expensive in history, uh-huh, good to say."

Everyone laughed at Spike Lee's vivid statement, if there is a film that can be called the most expensive in history, then this film that integrates Chen Mu, Iverson, Jordan, Mike Jackson, McCinda and other big names undoubtedly has competitive strength.

"So it's still the same sentence, see you in the theater?"

Oprah knows Spike Lee's routine.

"That's a certainty, the synopsis of the story is that ordinary individuals gather to play basketball, and everyone knows about it."

Spike Lee, this is also a synopsis of the story??

"Okay, the film promotion is enough, and everyone has to change the channel if we continue to talk about it."

Oprah was another joke, and in the midst of everyone's laughter, he looked back at Chen Mu and said, "In January, you shook the world, what are your plans for February?" Shaking the universe? Break a hole in the sky? ”

"Haha, it's not my business, it's his."

Chen Mu smiled and pointed at Curry, who looked confused, stretched out his hand and pointed at himself, embarrassed.

"Haha, five years ago I asked Aaron the same thing, and he would probably say that you want to be every day."

Oprah laughed, and so did Iverson.

"Seriously, will you fight like this in February? Ready to do another February Chen? For example, an average of 50+20 per game or something? ”

"That's not going to work, you have to recuperate and prepare for the playoffs."

Chen Mu shook his head with a smile and said: "The All-Star Game will show everyone off, and then the playoffs, Philadelphia will be invincible!" ”

In the All-Star Game, Chen Mu, who has been playing soy sauce for two years, is not ready to continue playing soy sauce this year.

The voting is nearing its end. (To be continued.) )
