MTL - You Made Me a Superstar-Chapter 532 Let's go to Huaxing!
Chapter 532 Go to Huaxing!
Anthony had a smile on his face when he received Zhou Yang's call.
When facing Zhou Yang's invitation, he listened the whole time.
Neither showed impatience nor agreed to leave Hollywood and come to Delaware.
Although the script of "The Silence of the Lambs" is indeed quite attractive, he has always maintained a wait-and-see attitude.
Zhou Yang's current identity is relatively sensitive, and he has nothing to rely on in Hollywood. It is even extremely difficult for his own movie to be released through normal Hollywood channels. Even if the movie is well-made, what good is it?
Although he appreciates this talented little brother who came from China, it is only appreciation after all, and this kind of appreciation is not worth his investment in Zhou Yang.
but…
Two days later, when Zhou Yang sent him a box of tea, he still accepted it, and very curiously imitated the appearance in the movie, made a cup of tea and drank it.
Watched "Brokeback Mountain" a few days ago. This is one of the few movies that made him teary-eyed but full of praise.
The role played by Zhao Zhen in the movie is very brilliant, especially when talking about China's "elegant" tea culture, the richness of the background also made him curious as a former nobleman.
"These leaves, are they really good for health and wellness as they say in the movie?"
Curiosity drove him to make a cup of tea.
After brewing a cup of tea, the fragrance of the tea overflowed, and I finally couldn't help but took a sip.
The entrance is slightly bitter, but then it gradually becomes sweet, and then it slowly changes from sweet to mellow.
【Tea is like life, light and flavorful; open-minded like valley, contented】
He closed his eyes.
Recalling "Brokeback Mountain", the taciturn but full of oriental mystery Zhao Zhen looked at Brokeback Mountain in the distance, and said these words in loneliness.
He recalled these words carefully, and felt that these words were extremely philosophical.
When I opened my eyes, I found that the more I drank the tea, the more flavorful it became.
………
The studio of "Spider-Man" is mainly built in Delaware, but the most important location is Fifth Avenue in New York.
This is a newly emerging place integrating finance, fashion and shopping.
The filming rent here is quite expensive. In the most prosperous location, the cost per minute is more than 10 million yuan for the shooting of "Spider-Man".
At first, when Zhou Yang saw the bill of more than 10 million RMB, he actually felt very painful in his heart.
He was completely over his budget.
“Are we really going to shoot on Fifth Avenue in New York?”
"Delaware actually has a lot of prosperous areas, we don't need to rent these facades..."
"Besides, Mr. Zhou, I don't understand why you entrusted Colo Paige with filming. Although Colo Paige used to be a very good Hollywood sci-fi director, the failure of "Lizard Man" It's proven that he's behind the times..."
March 2nd.
New York.
The "Spider-Man" crew, in the temporary office.
The head of the crew, Li Qiang, came over and chatted with Zhou Yang about it, with complicated eyes.
"Spider-Man" is like a money-burning machine. Since the filming of this project, this machine has swallowed money crazily. Half of the film was not shot. Lost nearly 30 million yuan.
Li Qiang persuaded Zhou Yang on the phone, and questioned Colo Paige's ability. He felt that it was really irrational for Zhou Yang to recruit Colo Paige into the crew of "Spider-Man" and let him be the film's location director. Behavior.
All the filming of the New York streets of the movie "Spider-Man" was done by Zhou Yang to Ke Luo Page, and Fifth Street was also chosen by Ke Luo Page.
It would be fine if Colo Page's "Lizardman" became a big hit, but "Lizardman" is a superhero movie that hit the market, making the entire Hollywood laugh at its existence.
Li Qiang, who had no confidence in "Spider-Man", is even less confident now. It is in this state that Li Qiang feels that the cheaper the company's investment in "Spider-Man", the better.
"Brother Li, go get busy first, I'll think about it later."
Zhou Yang took the bill from Li Qiang and the shooting plan of Ke Luo Paige in New York.
After a long silence, he finally looked up at Li Qiang and smiled.
Li Qiang hesitated to speak, but after seeing Zhou Yang's expression, he finally nodded and left the office.
He was extremely worried about the future of "Spider-Man", but after all, he was a gangster following Zhou Yang. He could express his opinion, but he could only support any decision Zhou Yang made.
After Li Qiang left, Zhou Yang looked at the bill, and then at the shooting plan of "The Silence of the Lambs".
During this period of time, he has too many things to do, and any decision is related to the future of the company.
Finally, he rubbed his tired temples and called Ke Luo Peggy.
Not long after finishing the phone call, Ke Luo Peggy knocked on the door and walked into the office.
He took the materials and chatted with Zhou Yang a lot about the contents of the movie.
He is a person who pursues realism for any movie.
Even if "Lizardman" made him feel like a failure and was ridiculed by Hollywood, he still felt that "Spider-Man" wanted to combine reality and special effects, and many places had to be physically shot.
"Mr. Keluo Peggy..."
"Here I am."
"Just do it."
"it is good!"
When Ke Luo Peggy saw Zhou Yang's frown relaxed, Ke Luo Peggy instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, and then laughed: "Mr. Zhou Yang, you are right to invest in me, you Won't regret it!"
Zhou Yang gradually narrowed his eyes after watching Ke Luo Peggy's leaving back.
………
The severe cold and chill of winter are gradually coming to an end.
In March, the grass grows and the warblers fly.
The Chinese film circle seems to have entered a new era, and it has become full of vitality.
After being silent for a long time, Jiang Ge, who was beaten to pieces, brought "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" to the point of massacre, raging in the Chinese film circle.
This oriental magic movie premiered at 40 million, breaking the historical record of Chinese local movies. Every day after that, under the deliberate protection of relevant departments, the movie box office has been rising steadily, and it has become a milestone movie in Chinese movies.
In February, for the entire month, Jiang Ge was at the top of the list of Chinese directors. Countless people vaguely regarded Jiang Ge as the first of the six generations of young directors in China, completely overshadowing Zhou Yang.
【The box office of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" exceeded 700 million! The 800 million milestone is not a dream! 】
【The sponsor behind "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" is exposed! 】
【This milestone work of Chinese movies, almost had no money to shoot! 】
【Jiang Ge is not taken seriously in Xinghui! 】
【The investment behind the scenes of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" is actually Huaxing! 】
【The story Jiang Ge and Zhou Yang have to tell...】
【…】
Jiang Ge in February was immersed in the joy of being the first Chinese director, feeling the endless glory and enjoying the attention of everyone.
But everything seems like a dream.
Then, this dream suddenly woke up.
March 3rd.
Among countless cheers and praises, the total box office of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" broke through an astonishing 700 million RMB, second only to that "Infernal Affairs"...
Everyone knows that it is only a matter of time before "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" breaks through 800 million. Hollywood movies will be released together in late March. In the first half of March, they are basically local Chinese movies, and there are no big movies.
This should have excited Django.
He proved his ability, and at the same time proved that he is no worse than Zhou Yang!
However…
It's at this stall!
The entire Internet is full of all kinds of breaking news about the "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" film project before the project is approved...
Some rumors broke that Jiang Ge was not optimistic about the project of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" in various ways, and did not want to help Jiang Gela invest in various ways. Jiang Ge had to find a way to attract investment...
It was revealed that Jiang Ge worked hard for this movie for many years, and finally finished the movie.
What’s even more revealed is that all the investments behind the scenes of “Liao Zhai Painted Skin” were dug out, and even photos of Jiang Ge and Feng Kai chatting were posted on the Internet…
…
One after another, the movie "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", which has been released for more than a month, has once again been pushed to the top of the hot search and the cusp.
Although it is not stated explicitly, the meaning inside is self-evident.
The Chinese filmmakers were in an uproar!
...
"At the beginning, I looked at Xiao Jiang pitifully, so I gave him a hand. I told President Li very early that the movie "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" is worth investing in, but you just don't believe it. What does this have to do with me?"
"..."
"I didn't know that Xiao Jiang and Feng Kai were connected with those people from Zhou Yang's faction. When I raised the investment, I just wanted to help Xiao Jiang, that's all! I'll say it again, that's all, nothing at all. What a conspiracy!"
"..."
"Believe it or not, this is reality!"
"..."
"Mr. Li, tell me, my attitude is here. I have so many directors on hand, all of whom are affiliated with your company to shoot. Your company is the producer. If you believe me, give them Invest more money, Zhou Yang's Huaxing is going to invest a lot of money for them!"
"..."
"How to deal with Xiao Jiang is your business, but let me tell you, you don't want Xiao Jiang, the people at Huaxing are eager to want... Mr. Li, I also gave it to me for our Huaxia Film Association, President Feng Minrui. A mess was left behind, and I was also devastated..."
"..."
"You must pay attention to Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang is talented!"
March 4 morning.
Jiang Ge stood at the door of Li Zhongjun's office with a gloomy face.
The sound insulation effect in the office was not bad, but Zhou Yilin's throat pulling sound made Jiang Ge hear it clearly.
When Jiang Ge heard Zhou Yilin speak for him, the anger that he had been deceived in his heart was a little better.
Then…
The voices of the two slowly softened.
It was obvious that the two were talking about something.
About half an hour later, he saw Zhou Yilin walking out with a smile all over his face.
Obviously, he has secured a large investment from Xinghui for his directors.
When Zhou Yilin saw Jiang Ge, his face became serious.
"My suggestion is, you leave Xinghui!"
"Li Zhongjun, there is no pattern, if you stay, you will only be suspected..."
"Let's go to Huaxing!"
I don’t know if it’s an illusion...
Django heard the voice.
