Chapter 445: Movie!
It's already autumn, the weather is very comfortable, the breeze blows, and the smell of fallen leaves in the yard wafts in, which makes people quite refreshed.
The nanny served tea, because Jiang Jin'er would live in the courtyard for the next few days, so I introduced Jiang Jin'er to the nanny. After reporting each other's names, the nanny kept praising Jiang Jin'er's beauty and good-looking, saying that she had never seen such a beautiful angel. Jiang Jin'er was a little embarrassed to be praised, secretly looked at me twice and stuck out her tongue, smiling and graceful.
"Is Aunt Pei awake?" I put down the tea in my hand and looked at the babysitter.
The nanny said: "She is still asleep, she must have been too tired yesterday." ”
I nodded slowly and said, "Then don't wake her up yet, let her fall asleep." ”
As he was talking, the subordinate sent by He Xin to protect Aunt Pei came in with a foreigner, and looked at the slightly chubby foreigner wearing a shirt and jeans from a distance, and felt a little familiar, and after taking a closer look, I immediately recognized him, this foreigner was the foreigner who saved Scarlett at the Huaxia City Hotel last night. He said that I had saved his life, probably because I had blocked the cheetah relationship for him later.
I got up and walked up, politely extended my hand to him, and said, "Hello." ”
"Hello Chen Yang, my name is David, I am the vice president of Paramount Pictures, this time I am here to thank you for saving me last night, last night's incident, thank you so much!" David in front of him, a strong man of more than 1.8 meters, with a standard foreigner face, cordial and sincere, very polite.
"You're welcome, last night's incident is that I should say sorry first, I wanted to invite everyone to spend a pleasant night together, but I didn't expect to experience a dangerous night." I still feel sorry for the guests who came to the banquet at the Huaxia City Hotel last night...... Fortunately, all the guests were safe and sound last night, otherwise I would not have said whether they would blame me in the future and affect my development in Luoshanji, even from my own point of view, I would feel very sorry not to go.
David shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I can't blame you last night, if you want to blame those gangsters, you did a good job, you did what a man, a big hero should do!" David gave me a thumbs up.
"Come, come in and sit down, let's sit down and talk." I smiled and invited David into the hall.
Walking into the hall, when David saw Jiang Jin'er sitting on the side, his eyes suddenly widened slightly, he glanced at me, smiled as if he saw a treasure, and then smiled and walked quickly in front of Jiang Jin'er, stretched out his hand to Jiang Jin'er and said, "Miss Jiang Jin'er, you are also here, what a coincidence!" ”
"Hello, Mr. David." Jiang Jin'er showed a lovely smile.
It seems that Jiang Jin'er is not only liked among celebrities, but also very popular among the high-level personnel of these entertainment film companies...... After they chatted for a few words, David clapped his hands and said, "Great, really good, Miss Jiang Jin'er, it's really good that you are here, maybe this is God's arrangement." ”
"God's arrangement? Mr. David, what do you mean by that? Jiang Jin'er was a little confused, and I was also very confused, looking at David who was a little excited in front of me, is there anything else that this David came over today?
David smiled, restrained his excitement, looked at me, and said: "Here's the thing, I suddenly had an idea after I went back last night, what happened last night at the Huaxia City Hotel was very thrilling, if we can make a movie about those experiences last night, it will definitely be a very wonderful commercial blockbuster, and there will definitely be a very high box office." ”
David is going to make a movie of everything that happened last night! I've watched a lot of movies before, all of which are adaptations of reality, but I didn't expect it to happen to me today. Before I could speak, suddenly Aunt Pei's voice sounded from behind: "Yes, however, we have a few conditions." ”
As she spoke, Aunt Pei, dressed in red casual clothes, walked out from the back of the hall, and her face looked much better than yesterday. I looked at her, and she happened to look at me as well, and I understood that the look was for me not to say more, and she would talk to David about the rest of the matter. Although I don't know what Aunt Pei wants to do, Aunt Pei has always done things in an orderly and planned manner, so I chose to sit quietly on the side and leave everything to Aunt Pei to handle.
"Aunt Pei, hello, was it okay last night?" David stepped forward and gave Aunt Pei a gentle hug, which was their foreigner etiquette. It's normal for David to know Aunt Pei, after all, last night's guests were basically invited by Aunt Pei.
Aunt Pei smiled and said, "I'm fine, but our banquet has frightened you, and I'm sorry to say to you here." Aunt Pei also glanced at Jiang Jin'er as she spoke, it seems that Jiang Jin'er will come over to the dinner this time, and it should be invited by Aunt Pei, not other guests who brought her over.
After a brief greeting with Jiang Jin'er, Aunt Pei sat next to David, and David smiled and said, "Aunt Pei, you just said that you need me to agree to a few conditions, please say it." ”
Aunt Pei was not polite, and said directly: "Okay, the first condition, we also have to invest in this movie, and it must account for at least forty percent." "Aunt Pei wants to invest forty percent, obviously seeing the prospect of this movie.
"This shouldn't be a problem." David nodded, seeing that David agreed so easily, I felt a little more good for him in my heart.
"The second condition is that the movie must promote Huaxia City and highlight Huaxia City." When Aunt Pei put forward this condition, I secretly shouted in my heart, Aunt Pei is still very good at doing business! Right now, we've lost a great opportunity to promote Huaxia City, and if we can promote it through movies, it will be much more useful than only promoting it among the upper echelons of Luoshan Rock! Aunt Pei agreed with David and them to make this movie, this is the real purpose!
For this condition, David seems to be a little hesitant, thinking about it carefully, it is normal for her to hesitate, if too many advertisements are implanted in a movie, it will affect the perception, and if it is implanted without traces of implantation, it requires a more ingenious way, which will increase a lot of requirements for screenwriters and other aspects.
After thinking for a while, David suddenly glanced at Jiang Jin'er, and then looked at us again and said, "I can also promise you this condition, but I also have one condition, Miss Jiang Jin'er must join the filming of this film." "This cunning businessman, he is looking at Jiang Jin'er's recent popularity, and he wants to use Jiang Jin'er to increase the box office.
Right now, Jiang Jin'er must be sent back to Huaxia as soon as possible to ensure her safety to the greatest extent, and it is impossible for me to keep her. I was just about to open my mouth to explain that it was us who made the conditions, why did he make the conditions now. But on the other side, Jiang Jin'er spoke first and said, "Okay, I can agree." ”
Aunt Pei and I immediately looked at Jiang Jin'er. I stood up and said, "Mr. David, wait a minute, we'll have to discuss this matter again." I frowned and walked quickly to Jiang Jin'er's side, pulled Jiang Jin'er to the back of the hall, and when I got to the back of the hall, I let go of Jiang Jin'er's hand and said admonishingly: "Jin'er, do you know what you are doing?" Now this is a very dangerous place for you, Liu Changsheng and they may come to arrest you again at any time, you ......"
Jiang Jin'er interrupted me and said apologetically: "This time it's because the good dinner in Huaxia City that I caused was ruined, if you don't let me do something to make up for it, I won't be at ease...... Moreover, Huaxia City is your brother's territory, as long as you do a good job of security, I don't think they will dare to come over again so soon. ”
"But ......"
"I'm not going back anyway, I have to make this film, it's also a very good training opportunity for me!" Jiang Jin'er was not reasonable at all, she saw that I was still frowning, stretched out her hand and grabbed me tightly, and said, "Oh, brother, I'm fine, if I don't do something for you, I don't want to go!" My grandfather has taught me since I was a child, to be a man to know how to repay the kindness, I believe that if my grandfather knows, he will definitely let me stay to help you, just now Aunt Pei said to highlight Huaxia City, I think Aunt Pei wants to advertise Huaxia City through movies, right? In this case, I have to help you even more! ”
"But the situation is special now......"
"Not special at all! In this way, we will discuss with David at that time, and the scenes about me will be filmed first, and I will go back to Huaxia as soon as the filming is completed...... In that case, it's always okay, right? Jiang Jin'er didn't have the slightest idea of quitting.
I was about to speak, but Jiang Jin'er directly interrupted me and said, "Anyway, I definitely want to stay and make this movie, that's all." Saying that, Jiang Jin'er took out her mobile phone and dialed a call, and as soon as the person on the other end of the phone picked it up, Jiang Jin'er said: "Agent, I want to take over a movie, Paramount Pictures' is a big investment, for specific things, I will ask them to contact you, and you can talk to them again." After saying these words, Jiang Jin'er hung up the phone and turned her head to look at me, with a little smug look in her eyes.
Although I can't do anything about Jiang Jin'er, my conscience makes it impossible for me to allow myself not to inform Jiang Hexuan of this matter. After pretending to be reluctant to agree, I found an excuse to go to the bathroom, and then made a phone call to Jiang Hexuan, I briefly explained what Jiang Jin'er wanted to do on the phone, to my surprise, Jiang Hexuan on the other end of the phone smiled a little helplessly and said, "Then let her stay there for a while!" ”
I was surprised and said, "Did I hear me right?" Grandpa Jiang, you ...... too."
"My granddaughter has a strong temper, and I can't control it! The more you have to manage it, the more counterproductive it will be. Jiang Hexuan smiled helplessly.
Hearing Jiang Hexuan's pampering and helpless tone, my psychological burden was reduced a lot, but I still emphasized the current situation, I said, "But if Liu Changsheng brings someone over again......
"I've already sent someone over to Liu Changsheng's side, and they shouldn't be going to Luoshan Rock again for a while." It turned out that Jiang Hexuan's side had already made arrangements.
I said, "If you have an arrangement, then it's okay to let Jin'er stay here for a while." ”
When I walked out of the bathroom and saw Jiang Jin'er still waiting for me in the back dining room, I pretended that nothing had happened, walked up to her and asked, "Why are you still here?" ”
"I want to see how long you're going to be on the phone with my grandfather." Jiang Jin'er looks like she sees through me, this little girl is really clever!
Returning to the hall with Jiang Jin'er, Aunt Pei was still discussing with David, and David was very excited after learning that Jiang Jin'er agreed to act, which was probably equivalent to seeing snowflakes for their businessmen.
Aunt Pei also put forward the third condition: "The third and last condition, the opening ceremony of the film must be held in Huaxia City, and all the mainstream media in Luoshanji must be invited to report in the past." ”
"It's even more of a problem." David readily agreed.
After the conditions were negotiated, the next thing to talk about was the details of the cooperation, Aunt Pei decided to go to Paramount Pictures in person, and I asked Big Pig to follow Aunt Pei with two more powerful thugs. When Aunt Pei went in to change clothes, she called me in together.
Walking into Aunt Pei's bedroom, Aunt Pei said to me while looking for clothes: "Chen Yang, compared to last night's dinner, if this movie is successfully filmed, it will enhance the influence of Huaxia City and your status in Luoshanji to a greater extent, this opportunity, we must seize it." I went to discuss the details of cooperation with David, and we will strive to hold a start-up ceremony within a week, and we are running out of time now, so we have to fight for more opportunities to expose Huaxia City. ”
"But it will take at least more than a year for a movie to be made, and by that time it will ......"
"No, since it's filming what happened last night, it's obviously an action scene, and there won't be too many special effects, so that the time will be used less, I estimate that it will be released in seven or eight months, in addition, the key is that in the early stage of filming, we can make more news, which can help us promote Huaxia City very well...... In short, I will take care of all this, and I am sure that by December, your social status will be greatly improved. When Aunt Pei said this, her face was both excited and confident.
Seeing Aunt Pei busy, I was indescribably moved in my heart, and I said, "Aunt Pei......"
"Alright, you can go and talk to David for a while, it's good for you to get acquainted with them." Aunt Pei smiled faintly, she didn't let me say words of thanks, probably because she didn't want to hear me say such things to her......
Walking out of the room, Xiaobai came out with me, turned around and closed the door, at this moment, the sunlight just fell on Aunt Pei from the window, and Aunt Pei looked so beautiful at this moment......
After talking for two days in a row, the matter of the movie was finally finalized, and a week later, the opening ceremony was held in Huaxia City. The film gathered six big stars, and on the day of the opening ceremony, it attracted many reporters.
For the sake of everyone's safety, I ordered that no one except reporters and related staff should enter Huaxia City, and I also transferred back the six Ai Zhihua brothers and asked Gail to send armed forces near Huaxia City.
Under the heavy security work, everything went very smoothly, and I also showed my face at the opening ceremony once, but this time I didn't say much, this is a symbolic appearance, as for the rest of the publicity work, it will be done by Aunt Pei. From this day on, most of the work in Huaxia City will only be responsible for appearances, and the rest will be done by Aunt Pei.
After the opening ceremony, in the next nearly a week, reports about this movie can be seen everywhere, the name of the movie is tentatively set as "Longtan Tiger's Den", originally David also wanted to invite me to make a cameo, saying that my kung fu would shine in the movie, but I directly refused, on the one hand, I have other more important things to deal with and have no time to delay on this, on the other hand, I want to show the style of "Mr. Chen", as a Mr. Chen, how can I casually make a cameo role in a thug's movie?
As the movie continued to be reported, Huaxia City slowly became popular, and it was on the hot search on the Internet in the United States, and Aunt Pei's Huaxia City Consulting Studio did not stop calling every day, and many people called to find out and ask for directions. The tourism companies opened for Huaxia City have also begun to receive orders, and many people want to come and see the true face of Huaxia City and have a good time.
However, not everything went smoothly, after learning that Jiang Jin'er was going to stay and film, Ang Lee, who was discharged from the hospital on the first day, rushed directly to Huaxia City to ask me why I asked Jiang Jin'er to stay and make movies.
After negotiating with David, the crew arranged for Jiang Jiner's scene to be filmed first, for Jiang Jiner's safety, I have been following Jiang Jiner, and when Jiang Jiner was filming in Huaxia City, I was drinking drinks nearby. I knew that Ang Lee would be discharged from the hospital soon, but I didn't expect him to come out in just over a week.
Looking at the angry Ang Lee, I didn't have any anger, I just said the reason why Jiang Jin'er insisted on staying, and when I heard me say that Jiang Jin'er was to repay his kindness, Li An in front of him subsided a little bit of anger, and he seemed to understand Jiang Jin'er's temperament. However, when he looked at me, there was still some resentment in his eyes, and he was still a little dissatisfied with me, so I stood up and said, "I know it's best for me to tie up Jin'er, but if I do that, do you think she will be happy?" ”
Ang Lee was stunned...... I walked past him and said, "Since you have been discharged from the hospital, then Jin'er will be handed over to you next." ”
After Ang Lee was discharged from the hospital, he resumed his responsibility for protecting Jiang Jin'er, and I could devote myself to what I was busy with.
Seeing that the day of returning to China is getting closer and closer, Aunt Pei has been working hard to promote the promotion of my social status, and another very important thing has been going on at this time: this matter is about the alliance of several large cities near Luoshan Rock.
In the past half a month, He Xin has been dealing with this matter, and judging from every time he calls me to report, there has been considerable progress.
On this day, when I was practicing Luohan boxing in the yard, He Xin came over, and when He Xin came in, his face was full of spring breeze, and he should have good news at a glance. I stopped the Luohan boxing I was practicing, and entered the hall with He Xin, and Lei Zhan followed.
I asked the nanny to serve us tea first, and after two sips, I let He Xin slowly talk about the events of these days.
"In the past few days, I have talked with the bosses of the old Jingshan, Phoenix, San Diego, and Las Vegas, and I learned from them that they have also been dissatisfied with the Kulikov family and the Nelson family all these years, and the two major families, especially the Kulikov family, have not taken them seriously...... But, of course, it's also because they see the benefits of being together, and I've signed contracts with them these days, and these contracts are where they make a lot of money and we make a little money. ”
The bosses agreed, apparently because there was money to be made with me, and there was no need to be angry.
I touched my chin and asked, "Are these people reliable?" ”
"I've checked and they're all reliable, and they've agreed to have a meeting together...... However, they just had one condition, they didn't want to come to Luoshanji to hold this meeting. He Xin frowned slightly.
"These guys don't dare to come to Luoshanji, on the one hand, they are afraid that this is our territory, they will be a little unable to let go when they come here, and on the other hand, they are also making their own calculations and holding meetings in other places, and they can put forward more conditions." I've been on the rivers and lakes for so long, and I've already seen through this.
He Xin asked, "Brother Yang, should we open this meeting or not?" ”
