Chapter 652: The process is always mutual (31)(1/3)
The open-air terrace outside the hotel roof and the swimming pool not far away reflect the half-full moon above.
Gu Zhinan and his group came here to chat because Lucas couldn't stand the excitement and fainted, and he needed to rest.
When he heard the name of the script "Inception", Lucas couldn't sit still, and then he fell down as weakly as if he had a heat stroke, which shocked Gu Zhinan and others. What if he
I'm so excited, it's so fun!
Fortunately, he only fainted temporarily and recovered quickly. He held Gu Zhinan's hand tightly and said that he would try his best in his life to film "The Matrix" given by Gu Zhinan. He also said that he would stick to China.
Patiently waiting for the day when Gu Zhinan perfects the script!
For this reason, Lai Jingming started a new round of deception, successfully deceiving Lucas into helping the director, just like the elder Ke Qing in the novel. Lucas also expressed his gratitude for being able to help Gu Zhinan.
And feel extremely honored.
It's just that Lucas, Parker and Ivy will go to Kyoto and Hangzhou tomorrow to promote the movie. After all, this is the purpose of their coming to China. The two leading actors and some supporting actors of "Untouchable" still have to go to Kyoto and Hangzhou to promote the movie.
We are waiting for these three people to go back at the hotel in the center of Haipu.
Parker and Ivy are also supporting characters in the movie, but they don't have that many roles. They came to China more to consolidate their popularity and help promote "Untouchable".
After all, Parker and Ai Weiwei were fired from CP, and both of them are very good-looking. According to Zhao Zhinan, Parker looks like five points of Levi's, but more of a rebellious one.
She has a docile personality, but when she gets along with Gu Zhinan, she is more of a bit silly. As for Ai Weiwei, she has a standard and exquisite Western goddess face, with uneven features. Gu Zhinan thinks that this girl is also quite quiet, at least for now.
of.
Gu Zhinan was speechless that Lai Jingming, a fat guy, wanted to fool everyone he met, but he also knew that with Lucas in the Natural Entertainment crew, he could fish better. Lucas's Western shooting concept was different from Lai Jingming's
Maybe they can merge if they collide with each other.
As for the script of "Inception", it seems to be the biggest thought in Lucas's mind. He knows that in order to get this script, he must first cross the mountain of "The Matrix"!
Both scripts are extremely exciting. Lucas now unconditionally believes every word Gu Zhinan said. He said that "Inception" will only be more brain-burning and reversal than "The Matrix", so it must be true.
of!
Wei Kangshi and An Xuelin couldn't withstand this blow and went back to rest. They no longer looked like young people. Last time they stayed up all night, Wei Kangshi felt sore and backache. He just repeatedly asked Gu Zhinan not to forget.
The script of "Love Before Dawn" is perfect, after all, he is also working hard at Nature Entertainment!
"Is there really a script called "Inception"? When did you think of it?"
Lai Jingming also had candies in his pocket, and he would just grab them when he was addicted to cigarettes. But this time he took them out, and several hands immediately reached out.
Gu Zhinan's, Parker's, Situ Hongwei, and Gu Zhijiu who rushed back, and even Ai Weiwei and Chen Yuze who couldn't sleep in the middle of the night ran up!
It was all gone at once...
Gu Zhinan held the lollipop in his mouth and didn't know what he was thinking. He was quiet for a while before speaking softly.
"It should be considered, but the process will probably be longer. It's actually good to keep this kind of movie. Maybe it can have an impact for a long time, right?"
"I have always felt that your pretense is the most successful among us, and you always end up pretending invisibly."
Lai Jingming curled his lips, Gu Zhinan said it should be true, he directly judged that it was true, and he directly said that it would have an impact for a long time, how confident he was!
It’s as if this ratio can already imagine what the effect will be like that day!
"A mature man will learn how to calm down, like me."
Gu Zhinan rolled his eyes at Lai Jingming. Lai Jingming was stunned and began to think deeply. Finally, he came to a conclusion. He sighed deeply and spoke in a tone he considered most mature.
"Indeed, I am also a calm man, and I am becoming less and less talkative."
Gu Zhinan frowned: "What's wrong? You want to learn sign language? How about I sign you up for a class tomorrow?"
Grass!
Lai Jingming broke through his guard in a second, looked at Gu Zhinan with sad eyes, and went to bite the lollipop. Who can be better than him?
"Before Dawn, The Matrix, next year's movie market will be a bit interesting." Situ Hongwei looked at Gu Zhinan and felt that young people are always creating miracles. He wanted to let him touch his son's head.
It’s getting stronger!
"It's not bad for Natural Entertainment to end this year with a Lunar New Year movie. Who would have thought that in just one year we would be able to collaborate on a Lunar New Year movie."
Lai Jingming also had a clear mind when he restrained his arrogance, otherwise he wouldn't have such superb directing skills.
“How will natural entertainment take the next year?”
When Lai Jingming said this, not only him, but also Situ Hongwei, Chen Yuze, and Gu Zhijiu who had been listening quietly all looked at Gu Zhinan. They were not at a loss. There were many ways to go about natural entertainment, but only this man said
Only then will they be able to walk steadily on the way out.
Gu Zhinan touched his nose and looked up at the stars. He could occasionally see one or two in the suburbs of Haipu, so they were not completely polluted.
"It's time for "Fairy Sword" to be released in film and television. Next year, our focus will not be on movies. We will work together to launch "Fairy Sword". I have already talked with Dynasty Entertainment, Hengqiu, and Huayang. They are all willing to title or sponsor, and
Wang Lang will also invest, and I think there will be many companies willing to sponsor us, the more the better!"
Lai Jingming was a little surprised. He knew that Fairy Sword would definitely be produced in movies, but he didn't expect that Gu Zhinan would be willing to accept all sponsorships and investments!
"Such a big deal? It's not good to have too many sponsors. I'm afraid it will affect the direction of the plot adaptation. It's not uncommon for sponsors to forcibly tamper with scripts and scenes in movies and TV shows!"
Gu Zhinan chuckled and bit into the lollipop: "It's written in black and white, the contract is dead! I only accept sponsorship, not any right to speak. You can give me money to film, but you want to speak. I'm sorry, you don't have that right!"
"But will those capitalists be willing to do this?" Chen Yuze was a little worried. He was even a little worried about Hengqiu Media. After all, there was a precedent for backstabbing. The only dynasty that has not yet been there is, but it is always capital, and this time it is aimed at
There are so many sponsors from China!
However, Situ Hongwei looked at Gu Zhinan and smiled. He patted Chen Yuze on the shoulder and said cheerfully: "Just because your boss is called Gu Zhinan."
"They will calculate their own interests. We asked them to sponsor just to give them a good name. But in fact, we gritted our teeth and cooperated with Dynasty Hengqiu and Wang Shao's Yida, and we can still produce it."
It's nothing more than spending money on special effects.
"Are you filming "Sword of Immortal"? Where should I invest?"
Parker stood up at this time, a little excited. After listening for a long time, he finally understood something.
"Our company can still sponsor it, just let Director Lucas do the talking."
Ai Weiwei learned about the matter from Parker, clapped her hands, and her eyes brightened.
"Well, to be honest, I don't know what company you are from in the United States..."
"..."
"..."
Lai Jingming and others looked at Gu Zhinan as if they were ghosts, drinking with you and kicking people, but in the end they didn't even know about that Wan Chai guy?!
Parker didn't mind. He grinned and spoke in English somewhat embarrassedly.
"Me, Ivy, and director Lucas are all from Warner Pictures Entertainment. Director Lucas is very famous in the company. Ivy and I are inferior, just because we became directors with Lucas before. I have made friends, so I can always follow him.”
"You're so talented!" Ai Weiwei straightened her long legs and hit a high heel, which made Parker grin.
"Oh, backdoor boy." Gu Zhinan nodded thoughtfully: "Is Warner Pictures Entertainment famous?"
He really didn't know about it. For him who skipped the credits while watching movies, he didn't even know a few about it from the movie company in his previous life!
"What the fuck?!" Lai Jingming couldn't sit still at all. He was holding his forehead, as if wiping sweat but there was no sweat. He didn't know how to speak.
It was Situ Hongwei who spoke first, with a slight smile: "Warner Entertainment Pictures, Universal Entertainment Pictures, Dream Factory Pictures, 20th Century Fox Pictures, Monlana Entertainment Pictures, Gobia Entertainment Pictures These companies are all well-known large entertainment companies in the United States. Their strengths are somewhat different from each other, but their expertise is basically the same. Except for Dream Factory, this is a company that is good at turning fairy tales into IPs."
"Our country's four major entertainment giants, Dynasty is good at singers and stars, Hengqiu is good at actors, Huaguoxing Entertainment and China Star Media have each other's strengths, but the United States is different. They have developed in an all-round way and the competition is more intense. The competition in Hollywood is more intense than before. The second they were friends, the second they fell apart." Gu Zhijiu added.
"So they are from big companies?" Gu Zhinan thought for a moment and asked Parker: "How is Warner's special effects team?"
Parker shook his head, a little embarrassed: "I don't know about this, do you know Ivy?"
"I don't know, we haven't been exposed to any movies with big special effects." Ai Weiwei shrugged her shoulders. She and Parker were relatively small and transparent in the star-studded Warner, so how could they know so much.
"Our company has also produced many blockbuster special effects movies, which should be pretty good. The special effects of "The Matrix" should also be completed by our company's special effects team." Ai Weiwei thought for a while and added, Gu Zhinan could already understand a little bit, But Gu Zhijiu was still a conscientious translator.
He nodded: "I understand. I wish you success in your promotional activities tomorrow."
Gu Zhinan smiled at Parker and Ai Weiwei, stretched out his hand to shake Parker, and exchanged words with Ai Weiwei.
Parker also grinned: "We will meet again in two days, I will be back."
"..."
Lucas will definitely come back here to wait for "The Matrix". Parker is just an idler now. He always prefers freedom and doesn't like to be restrained, so he has been popular in the United States, and there are not many behind Ivy.
activities, and don’t want to go back to the United States so soon.
"Gu, can I ask you a favor?" Ai Weiwei suddenly spoke, looking at Gu Zhinan expectantly. In her eyes, Gu Zhinan seemed to have become an omnipotent genius.
Gu Zhinan was a little confused, but he still spoke, speaking in less than proficient English.
"You can say it first, but I can't borrow money."
Ai Weiwei rarely rolled her eyes at Gu Zhinan, and said with some longing: "If possible, I would like to buy a song from you. I like the song you wrote. We can discuss the price, but I don't have much money.
, don’t take it all, okay?”
She looked at Gu Zhinan pitifully. Those blue eyes were pitiful, but Gu Zhinan curled his lips. It was a long way from that. He was completely immune to this kind of charm.
When it comes to writing songs, Gu Zhinan feels a little embarrassed as he rubs his chin. There is a kind of person who may not be able to speak Cantonese or English very well, or may not be very fluent, but if he wants to sing, he is definitely KTV Mai Ba!
"Things have piled up too much all at once. I need to slow down a bit. If I can spare some time, I can give it a try."
