On August 12, in a small conference room on the third floor of the WestinBoure Hotel in Los Angeles, a small press conference held by Miramax for the start of filming of the film "True Lies" was immediately held. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)

There were five people at the press conference: Kang Jie, Fan Wenxuan, Jon Gordon, Swarzenegger and Curtis.

The identities of the five representatives are different, Chen Kangjie represents the crew, Fan Wenxuan represents Feiyang Entertainment, the holding company of Miramax, Jon Gordon represents the management of Miramax, and Swarzenegger and Curtis represent the actors.

Fan Wenxuan, as a "NV" soldier and the top leader on the surface, sat in the middle of the rostrum, Chen Kangjie and Sivasinger sat on her left, Jon Gordon and Curtis sat on her right, and the background was a temporary design with only a huge curtain block on it, only the name of the movie "Truelies" on it, and no other patterns, this press conference was hosted by Jon Gordon.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Jon Gordon, President of Miramax Inc., and I welcome you to this press conference of Miramax Inc., the main purpose of which is to introduce you to our company's first major production of Zuò film, True Lies, , This film will invest 1.5 billion US dollars, starring the famous Hollywood stars Arnold Swarzenegger and Jimmy Lee Curtis, it is expected to meet the audience at the beginning of next year, this is a quick action, gunfight, comedy and love as one of the movies, but also the most important thing produced by our company in 94, we hope that this film can achieve good box office results in the North American market next year, I hope you can help promote more, thank you, I will introduce you to the press conference "NV" Shi, Mr. Jon Gordon said into the microphone, then stretched out his left hand to Fan Wenxuan.

"Next to me is Miss Monica, the president of Hong Kong's Feiyang Entertainment Company, and the one next to me is Mr. Long, the director and producer of our film......", Jon Gordon first introduced Fan Wenxuan and Chen Kangjie, who are not familiar to everyone, of course, he did not mention their Chinese names, only English names. However, when Chen Kangjie was introduced, his words were interrupted by the 'buzzing' of the reporters below.

Although Chen Kangjie wears sunglasses and a "bāng" cap, he still can't hide his youth, and now Jon Gordon introduces that this young man is the director and producer of such a big movie, how can he not be surprised, this has never happened in the history of Hollywood, no company dares to give so much money to such a young man to make a movie. "Please know the domain name"

"Please be quiet, if there is any question, we will expect the time for you to ask questions, the one who must not be introduced, is the familiar 'Terminator' Mr. Arnold Swarzenegger", Jon Gordon continued in a raised voice.

When Jon Gordon introduced Fan Wenxuan and Chen Kangjie, the two Orientals only nodded implicitly, but Swarzenegger was different, but raised his right hand and waved downward, as if to meet his fans.

The reporters below who are accustomed to seeing celebrities did not scream or whistle at him like ordinary movies "mí", they just applauded and welcomed, this kind of treatment is much higher than Fan Wenxuan, this is fame, fame is influence, influence is power.

When the applause faded, Jon Gordon began to continue to introduce Jamie Lee Curtis, "The one on my right, everyone probably knows, this is Jamie Lee Curtis, who plays the protagonist of "Moonlight Panic" "NV", he will play the role of Helen, the protagonist of "NV" in our movie, "Sè", and Arnold Swarzenegger plays a couple."

"Okay, everyone here already knows each other, so friends in the media, if you have any questions of interest, you can ask us", Jon Gordon pressed the microphone down.

The first one to raise his hand was the long-haired "NV" soldier.

"Hello, I'm Jessica, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times, and I'd like to ask Mr. Jon Gordon if Flyer Entertainment acquired Miramax, because last time your company's bid failed, we don't know the result, and if so, can you release some details?

At the beginning of the bid, the Weinstein brothers had arranged for three news media to interview, and the Los Angeles Times, a local media in Los Angeles that ranked third in the United States in terms of newspaper influence, was one of them, but the reporter who went last time was not this Jessica.

Jon Gordon lifted the microphone he pressed again, glanced at Fan Wenxuan, and began to answer the 'NV' question, "Miss Jessica, thank you for your question, let me answer it, first of all, you are right, Miramax is now a subsidiary of Hong Kong Feiyang Entertainment Company, and the whole merger and acquisition has only been over for a few days, because they are doing some 'jiāo' I didn't have time to tell you about the transition, but now I can tell you that the entire merger cost $880 million, and the shares were all acquired, and as for the Weinstein brothers you asked, because they don't have a position in our company now, so we don't know where they went, sorry, I can't answer your question."

For many answers, Jon Gordon and Fan Wenxuan have communicated with each other, so it is not difficult to answer, besides, there is no need to hide this question, after all, they have been filed in the political department of the United States, and it is well documented, but Jon Gordon did not say that it was a cash acquisition, and its purpose is to keep a low profile as much as possible.

"Hello, monica, I'm Thomas Wang, a reporter for the Chinese-language media Int'lDailyNews, and my question is, as a Hong Kong company, how could you think of buying a Hollywood film company? And it's a high price of more than 500 million Hong Kong dollars," the Chinese man in black-rimmed glasses and a gray "sè" casual suit held up his notebook and asked his own question.

In the United States, there are many Chinese-language newspapers, discourse radio and television stations, and Los Angeles, as a gathering place for Chinese, is at the forefront of the whole United States in this regard.

"Mr. Wang, thank you for your attention to us, the United States, whether it is in the traditional commodity market or the entertainment market, is the largest in the world, relatively speaking, the Hong Kong market is much narrower, the population is small, the hell is narrow, the total economic volume is not large enough, since you are a Chinese-language media, then you should understand the Chinese saying 'people go to high places and water flows to low places', entering the American market, is a normal business 'xìng' behavior", Fan Wenxuan replied, but avoided the topic of acquisition amount.

Fan Wenxuan avoided it, which does not mean that people will acquiesce, this Thomas Wang added as soon as Fan Wenxuan's words fell, "Can you tell me about the source of funds? As far as I know, it is very difficult for Hong Kong's entertainment organizations to have such a strong strength."

"Sorry, this is a trade secret, no comment", Fan Wenxuan didn't want to go into too much of this issue, which was also what Chen Kangjie meant.

"I'm George Elma, a Los Angeles correspondent for Fox Broadcasting, and I don't understand why this $150 million zuò movie was given to someone we don't recognize...... This is a bit unbelievable, how could Mr. Swarzenegger, as a big star who has been famous for many years, be willing to accept such ridiculous behavior?", George Irma thinks that he is a reporter for a big news organization, so the question asked is a bit arrogant, and even the 'hello' is omitted, if he hadn't seen Chen Kangjie staring at him through sunglasses, he would probably change the 'young director' to 'Huang 'máo 'kid', only to Swarzenegger is polite, but he still defines this behavior as 'xìng' ridiculous'.

"This ...... What's ...... George? Oh, Elma...... I don't know who you want to answer this question, but since you mentioned the director, it's me, I'll answer it, and he answers the question about Swarzenegger himself, I don't know where you learned this kind of thinking? In the history of our country, more than 2,000 years ago, there was a man named Ganluo, who became the prime minister at the age of 13, and a little closer, there was a very famous emperor in the Qing Dynasty, named Aixin Jueluo Xuanye, that is, Emperor Kangxi, he boarded the plane at the age of eight, and at the age of 14, he mastered the power of the entire country and managed hundreds of millions of people. , Now after listening to your words, I know that it is actually just ......", Chen Kangjie's note "xìng" is impossible not to remember the name of this reporter from Fox Broadcasting, but because of the arrogance of the other party, he also deliberately did not give the other party a face, and the content of the answer was also contemptuous "xìng".

may not be able to stand Chen Kangjie's rhetoric, this white reporter in a suit and leather shoes and a tie directly stood up and interrupted Chen Kangjie's words, "What you said is all about your country, and it was hundreds of thousands of years ago, who knows if it's true, I don't believe that you can be the director, don't think that you Chinese can paste the ...... of the American people if you buy this film company."

He was rude, and Chen Kangjie didn't need to be polite, so he went in directly, "OK, you are so ignorant, so narrow-minded, I don't blame you, if you want to blame, you can only blame Fox Company, then I will sue you for an American example, but...... According to your level of knowledge, I guess you don't know, there is a young man named Gray, only 14 years old this year, is not far from Las Vegas, this person started a business at the age of 6 to sell stones, at the age of 8 he set up a "City Neighborhood Economic Enterprise Association" business association, two years ago he began to be a host in Las Vegas, if I don't tell you the name of the program he hosts, I guess you will say I'm foolish, this show is called "backstage live broadcast", this year he should be a millionaire, tsk...... I think you're seventeen or eighteen years older than him, right? What were you doing when you were 14? Riding a bicycle, delivering newspapers to earn a dollar and a dollar huā, or stealing from your neighbors? Anyway, I don't believe you were a millionaire at the time, and it's no wonder that you believe that age is directly proportional to ability, so ...... You're probably going to be a millionaire in another fifty years, sorry, I'm telling you the truth."
