Hollywood Lover Chapter 230

In fact, Zhang Dongcheng was ready to help Nicholas yesterday, but thinking of the way this guy disobeyed orders and was so angry, Zhang Dongcheng couldn't help but want to take revenge. Looking at the world's most famous actor Nicholas With a bitter face, I begged myself bitterly, this feeling is very refreshing!

   "Help?" Zhang Dongcheng frowned pretending not to know, and asked blankly, "What help?"

   "This... How about we talk while eating?" As soon as the words fell, Nicholas pushed Zhang Dongcheng away from the set without any explanation.

  In the evening, Zhang Dongcheng and Nicholas sat opposite each other in a famous Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles. While tasting Chinese dishes that are completely different from those in memory, they communicated.

"Director Smith! This is my current situation!" Nicholas told Zhang Dongcheng exactly what happened to him recently, and then looked at him with big eyes full of hope and asked, "I wonder if Director Smith can help me? "

   "It's not impossible to help you! But what benefits do I have?" Zhang Dongcheng looked at Nicholas with a half-smile.

   "This..." Nicholas asked, gritted his teeth, and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't think of what he could impress Zhang Dongcheng. In the end, he could only say with a bitter face, "Director Smith, what do you want?"

"Forget it!" Seeing Nicholas' hard-working look, Zhang Dongcheng also gave up the idea of ​​playing him again, and said, "You should raise a sum of money first. Now is not a good time to enter the market. When is the right time?" When it arrives, I will let you know!"

   "Thank you! Thank you so much Director Smith!" Nicholas was flattered.

   "I just want to say it again, show your best form! Otherwise, you will know the consequences!" Zhang Dongcheng drank the white wine in his hand playfully.

   Nicholas just nodded his head in embarrassment. In front of Zhang Dongcheng, he no longer has the arrogance of Mr. Hollywood's 20 million club

  After the matter of Nicholas was settled temporarily, The Matrix also entered the intense filming stage.

   While Zhang Dongcheng was busy filming the secret battle, The Matrix also entered the intense filming stage. At the same time, those guys who imitated Zhang Dongcheng finally suffered.

  First of all, there are companies that are limited by insufficient investment costs and want to learn how to make funds. Except for a few of them, they are making money, and the rest are all in a mess. Even some companies, following the example of Zhang Dongcheng and making movies, have already fallen into the crisis of bankruptcy.

  "With the same plan, some people can master it and benefit endlessly, but some people end up going bankrupt. I have to say that Smith Zhang's short-term film investment fund is indeed a double-edged sword. Crisis and profit coexist!

  The only person who can dance this double-edged sword well is Smith himself, and everyone else has been entrapped by this plan and lost everything!

  But this does not mean that short-term funds are not feasible. In fact, this fund plan has gradually attracted more and more attention in other financial fields besides the film industry! Many financial experts believe that short-term funds are bound to become a new investment option in the future..." - "Wall Street Journal"

  In this report, Zhang Dongcheng's name was only slightly mentioned at the beginning, and the rest is all about analyzing the operation of short-term funds.

   Even so, it can still be seen how many people have been killed by the fund created by Zhang Dongcheng. How many people have benefited from it.

"The fund created by this **** Smith is simply a Pandora's box! Without this fund, the bosses of those bankrupt companies, even if their companies did not improve, at least would not have ended up in the current situation! It can be seen that Smith is a A person who has no sense of social responsibility, such a person, no matter how wonderful the film he shoots, he cannot become a real master director!" - "Los Angeles Media News"

  In the headquarters of Los Angeles media information, Gavin looked at Ender in front of him, and his head grew dizzy. "Ender, are you really going to do this?"

  He just published an article criticizing Zhang Dongcheng's film fund this morning. Who would have thought that Ander would come to his door now, intending to partner with him to shoot a movie. And the method of raising funds is obviously going to follow Zhang Dongcheng's example and operate in the form of a short-term film investment fund!

  Ander's face was no longer as vigorous as before, his complexion was dull, and there was a hint of despair in his eyes. The hair is messy and looks like it hasn't been washed for a long time. With a bit of bitterness in his tone, he said: "Gavin, I have nothing now! Because of the failure of the extreme cold, even Mr. George Lucas can't help me, I can only put all my eggs in one basket!"

   "But do you know the consequences of doing this? Have you seen what happened to the other companies that learned from Zhang Dongcheng? Are you sure that this movie will make money?" Gavin looked at Ender suspiciously and asked.

Don't blame Gavin for being so small, it's because what happened to Ander last time was so shocking. With an investment of more than 60 million US dollars, the final global box office was only more than 30 million. After deducting the share for the theaters, the investment The money that people get is less than half of what they took out at the beginning!

   Such a terrible investment instantly plunged Ander into a situation where he could never recover. Even George Lucas can only let him leave temporarily!

  Because of such an experience, Ender is doomed to be insulated from the position of director in the future. Hollywood investors don't have that much money for him to throw it again!

  Ender nodded vigorously, and there was a bit of madness in his eyes. Said: "I know, but I am sure, I will succeed this time!

"Ender, listen to me, I can't do this!" Gavin thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Movies are like a gamble. If you believe me, then temporarily leave the film industry for a while. Of course, you can Choose to be a reporter here.

  During this period of time, first learn in detail to improve yourself. I think you will have a chance sooner or later. isn't it? At least you have to let your reputation as the most deceitful director fade down! Otherwise, even if I agree, as long as you know that the director is you, then no one will buy the fund, what do you think? "

  Ever since the media reported the extremely cold comparison between box office and investment, Ander immediately gained a name. It can be said that he became famous in one fell swoop.

  It's a pity that all directors avoid his title.

  The most deceitful director!

  His one is extremely cold, which has really made those investors miserable. Under such circumstances, even if Ander is desperate to issue funds by himself, I am afraid that he would not dare to guarantee him.

  Even if someone can guarantee it, who will buy the funds he sells?

  If it wasn't for the help of George Lucas in the matter of the extreme cold, I'm afraid that Ender would have been unable to move a single step in the United States and could only leave in despair!

   Having said that, Extreme Cold is indeed a very good deep-sea monster movie, but why the American people just don't sell it, and the investment of 60 million was exchanged for more than 10 million at the box office. This is really nothing to say.

   In an old Chinese saying, luck? hehe.

  He glanced at Gavin unwillingly. In the past, Ender would have quarreled with Gavin, but now he doesn't have that confidence, and he has to admit that Gavin's words are very reasonable. Maybe I should really stay silent for a while, and take this opportunity to improve my abilities while working as a film critic. Prepare for a comeback in the future!

  Under Gavin's persuasion, one of the most deceitful directors who had just risen disappeared, and at the same time, a firm opponent of Zhang Dongcheng appeared in the Los Angeles media information. And he is also an extremely vicious opponent. He can always pick out countless mistakes in Zhang Dongcheng's movies and decisions.

In the secret battle crew, Zhang Dongcheng looked at the super actor Nicholas who was encouraged by himself, fantasized about being able to make back his money, and finally recovered a little bit of filming mood, and said: "Let's skip the part where you and Patricia are playing against each other, and shoot the following chase." Snippets of killing and escaping!"

  These are some fragments taken from Dark War 2.

   "OK!" Under Zhang Dongcheng's order, the crew members temporarily gave up the plot on the bus and came to another set.

  In this paragraph, Zhang Dongcheng revised the script to say that after the car crash, John and Nicholas were dizzy and wanted to **** the gem. Nicholas didn't get the gem because of terminal cancer, but the gem fell into John's hands.

   Then Nicholas found John, tricked John to the site he had arranged a long time ago, and then took the gem away again. Immediately afterwards, the plot of a bicycle fight occurred between the two parties.

  When the set was set up properly, Zhang Dongcheng sat on the director's chair and announced loudly; "Action!"

   This set is very dark.

  John walked in with a box containing gems in his hand. His face darkened. Obviously coming here is not willing.

  When I saw that the scene in front of me was constantly playing the grievances and hatred between an old John and the big villain, and then there was a scene of childhood cancer.

   "FUCKYOU!!" John yelled at the surroundings disdainfully: "Revenge and revenge, steal from the rich and give to the poor? Who do you think you are? Superman? A superhero? ****! You are a criminal!"

   "NO! NO! NO!" A beam of light suddenly shot from the sky, and Nicholas was standing there impressively. His posture was elegant, and he looked like a gentleman or aristocrat attending a high-end party!

   Bowed slightly to John, Nicholas said: "I just want to get back what belongs to me!"

  The projection screen suddenly changed drastically, and the images of Nicholas appeared on all the mirrors. It made John a little distracted, and couldn't find where Nicholas was. He could only take out a laser light, hoping to find the real location of Nicholas.

"Then you are looking for the wrong person!" John sneered, shaking the box in his hand, and said, "I have seen through everything about you. The gem you want is here, but do you have the guts to take it? Now you Do you want me to arrest you obediently, or let me beat you up and arrest you again?"

   "NO! NO!" Nicholas put his hands in his pockets, and said in a very elegant posture: "You are not a policeman, and I am not a gangster. We are partners, and you should be my assistant. Isn't it?"

   "Assistant? ****!" John cursed angrily, then sneered, and said, "Well, as a partner, you have come up with so many tricks. Don't you dare to meet me in person?"

   "Why do you say that? Can't you see me now?" Nicholas said aggrievedly, spreading his hands.

   "I..." Just when John was about to say something, the password box in his hand was suddenly snatched away by a guy who drilled out of nowhere.

  Caught off guard, John immediately followed, trying to take back the lockbox.

  When a curtain was lifted, John was shocked to find that the password box was actually placed on the table in this small space.

   After quickly stepping forward to open the password box, there were no gems in the box at all, only a note with a grimace drawn on it.

  John was furious. He slammed his fist on the table suddenly, and said angrily, "You **** bastard, you're playing me again!"

   His punch happened to shatter the table. The falling of the table caused a chain reaction, and even the whole small house collapsed.

   During the collapse of the house, John finally saw the back of Nicholas who was fleeing here. He supported it with both hands, and the fallen plank was smashed to the side.

   "Damn it, stop!" John cursed angrily, and quickly chased after him.

   "CUT!" Zhang Dongcheng nodded in satisfaction. It seems that the financial crisis has indeed affected Nicholas. This guy's acting fluctuates too much due to external influences, but when anyone goes from a millionaire to a debt, no one may be in a good mood to perform.

  However, when playing with John, Nicholas temporarily got rid of the shadow in his heart, and the performance began to be deep and exciting again. These two are worthy of being the best screen partners!

   "Director Smith, can I perform well this time?" Nicholas looked at Zhang Dongcheng with some anxiety and asked.

To know. Zhang Dongcheng was quite happy when he gave the money. How could Nicholas, a guy who likes to enjoy life and enjoys a luxurious life, fall out with a rich man like Zhang Dongcheng? He hopes to cooperate with Zhang Dongcheng a few more times! In this way, the expenses for several months are covered!

   "Not bad!" Zhang Dongcheng nodded and said, "Nicholas, your performance this time is not bad! But I hope you can adjust your state as soon as possible, because we can't give up the bus scene!"

  Nicholas immediately smiled when he heard this, patted his chest and said, "OK! Don't worry, Director Smith, I will definitely adjust my state!"

  Zhang Dongcheng pouted, thinking in his heart, I hope so!

  For Nicolas Cage, the actor who has the title of king of bad movies, after personally contacting him, Zhang Dongcheng has given up hope for him.

  Other actors will more or less change their acting methods after the director's speech, but Nicholas can't, this guy is completely in the dark. No matter how clear he is in what he says, he still does his own thing when he really expresses it.

  His performance seems to be completely dependent on talent and mood. Not talking about strength at all! This made Zhang Dongcheng feel like a dog biting a hedgehog when he faced him. No matter how much you point him, he can't integrate what you said into his own performance. What's the use of saying more?

  If Zhang Dongcheng hadn't finally found his weakness, maybe he would really kick this guy out of the crew.

   "Clean up, everyone, let's move on to the next scene!" Zhang Dongcheng greeted and left the set first.

   Although there are many similarities between Dark War 1 and Dark War 2, there are some hard points that cannot be connected in series.

  For example, in Dark War 1, Andy Lau is a patient with terminal cancer, and he doesn't have many days to live. In Dark War 2, Ekin Cheng is indeed a strong and strong magician.

  Because of this, before the bicycle scene, Zhang Dongcheng had no choice but to cut the part of the two chasing after each other.

   After all, it is a joke to let a terminal cancer patient run for several hours in a row. The audience will definitely scold the screenwriter for being an idiot! How could Zhang Dongcheng make such a mistake?

  After coming to the street to re-set the scene, the lighting engineer, cameraman, and rail car were all in their positions and arranged properly.

  The bicycle scene finally unfolded.

   Following Zhang Dongcheng's voice of ACTION!

  Nicholas walked quickly from the corner while hiding the black cloth bag containing gems in his close pocket.

   "****! Stop, you damned fellow!" Behind him came John's scolding!

  Nicholas glanced back, showing a narrow smile, and said: "If you want to get the gem back, then come and catch me!"

   As soon as the words fell, he ran straight up, but after running a few steps, Nicholas had to stop, rubbing his chest and coughing.

   "Oh! It seems that your body is failing! Stand there obediently and let me catch you!" John shouted excitedly. Run faster.

  Nicholas didn't show any angry expression when he heard this, instead he turned his head and smiled, grabbed the locked bicycle, and flipped a wire flexibly between his fingers. The lock was opened in an instant. Get on your bike and drive away.

   "Oh! Damn it!" John was a little dumbfounded, and desperately chased after him.

  Unfortunately, it is still impossible for him to catch up with Nicholas who has a vehicle just by relying on his legs. Gritting his teeth, John saw that there were few pedestrians on the street, so he simply pulled another bicycle past him. He desperately chased after Nicholas.

  Hearing the voice behind him, Nicholas turned around with a smile and said, "From here to the end of the street, I won. See you next time?"

   "Okay! I won, you just obediently follow me back to the police station!" John agreed without hesitation.

  The two were riding bicycles, staring at the pedals vigorously!

  The role played by Nicholas is in the terminal stage of cancer and cannot be compared with John, who is strong and strong. He was soon caught up by John, and the two seemed to be neck and neck.

  John smiled at Nicholas sideways, and was about to say something, but Nicholas stretched out his hand recklessly and wiped John's face.

  For a split second, John couldn't see anything. "Oh! You **** bastard, you're playing tricks!"

  John scolded angrily. Nicholas laughed loudly, and grabbed John by the collar.

   "SHIT! Let go, you **** bastard!" John cursed and started to fight back.

   Immediately, the two started fighting while pedaling their bicycles.

   The fight scenes are pretty hilarious. Neither John nor Nicholas has any martial arts skills, and the secret war drama is not brilliant with action.

   Therefore, the fighting movements of the two, not only do not seem to have the slightest sense of sharpness, but are full of fun, which makes people smile.

  Cover your eyes, pull your clothes, pull your hair... It can be said that you can do everything!

  Nicholas suddenly smiled, and put his foot on John's bicycle, and the mud fender behind the bicycle fell off in a split second.

  You kick me, I kick you too, John started to fight back without showing any weakness. For a while, the battle between the two seemed to escalate.

  Because they were too close, the front wheels of the two bicycles quickly mingled together.

   "CUT!" Zhang Dongcheng waved his hand and said, "Hanging on the wire below, be careful not to get hurt!"

  The shot below is the scene where the two are constantly flying out because the wheels of their bicycles are pinned together. There must be safety measures in this section.

  During the filming of the secret war, the eight major film companies unanimously started to acquire the copyrights that were optimistic about Dongcheng Films.

  However, there are policies above and countermeasures below. Zhang Dongcheng had already discussed everything with Adaman. Next, Dongcheng Pictures will discuss the purchase of copyrights with various books and games. In fact, these copyrights are not really bought at all, but Zhang Dongcheng releases a fog to trap those who want to rob them.

  The real copyright is a subsidiary company in Adamang City. No one will know that this company is owned by Dongcheng Films, and the plan to purchase the copyright has also been concealed. After all, no one pays attention to what a new company does.

  When their focus is on Dongcheng Pictures itself, then these people will be completely caught!

  Universal Pictures, Karl looked at the copyrights that his subordinates had recently purchased ahead of Dongcheng Films, with a wry smile on his face. Some of these copyrights have been determined to be worthless for filming.

Carl is an old man in the film circle. He can tell at a glance that this is Dongcheng Films' practice of being stuck in a rut. It is a pity that many people blindly trust Zhang Dongcheng, and even worship him. It was a small pit for Universal Pictures.

   "Notice, let everyone give up snatching the copyright that Dongcheng Films is negotiating!" Karl ordered James Jakes beside him.

   "Give up? Why?" James Jacks is no longer the production manager he was two years ago.

  Because Carl is getting old, now he has been transferred to Carl's side, and with Carl's help, he gradually intervenes in the operation of the entire Universal Pictures. Speaking of it, it seems that there is a trend of becoming the new helm of Universal Pictures.
