Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon Chapter 451

"Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon (

Century City, west of Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, 20th Century Fox Film Company.

Hansen Jonas, deputy manager of the distribution department, was meeting with a guest.

"Dear James, it's been a long time since I saw you, how are you?" Hansen Jonas opened his arms and hugged the visiting James Cameron.

For Hansen Jonas, James Cameron is a mobile ATM.

Why do you say that? In fact, Hansen Jonas and James Cameron are not familiar with him, but he met Hansen Jonas when a film that James Cameron participated in was released.

Of course, it's just acquaintance, not much friendship.

And James Cameron is a director, Hansen Jonas is the distribution department of a film company. Think about it and know what happened to James Cameron looking for Hansen Jonas.

Of course, in many cases, no matter how good your relationship is, you still need to speak from the young man, so for Hansen Jonas, James Cameron is to give himself money.

"Dear Hansen, I am relieved to see you so happy. Obviously you are doing well, but I am miserable." James Cameron said with a tear in his eyes.

"James, is there any difficulty? Say it, I see if I can help you!" Hansen Jonas said.

This kind of thing does not exist, whoever speaks first loses, so Hansen Jonas did not evade and asked directly.

After all, Hansen Jonas is the object of help, and James Cameron is the object of help.

"Hanson, you know, I have made a film before." James Cameron said after a long time of brewing.

"Of course, is there any problem with the investment? Didn't you hear that this film has invested a full five million dollars?" Hansen Jonas said.

"No, Hansen, there is nothing wrong with the investment, and the film has been filmed. The biggest problem now is the issue of the release." James Cameron said.

"Issuance problem!" Hansen Jonas heard James Cameron's words and repeated it with a frown.

"Yeah, you also know that Hollywood is like that, and the film release can't get around your eight big movie giants, so isn't this asking you to help?" James Cameron said.

"Well, my friend, you really came at an untimely time. Our 20th Century Fox's "Fantasy Star" will also be released in the near future. This schedule is somewhat conflicted, but Hansen Jonas was not as full as he said. , Gave James Cameron room to operate.

Sure enough, when James Cameron heard Hansen Jonas, he knew that the meat scene of the meeting was coming.

"Hanson, I heard that you just got bigamy last month. I have been busy shooting a movie. I only know about it now, so this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it!" James Cameron took out one from his briefcase. The item was handed to Hansen Jonas.

Hansen Jonas looked down at something. Before it turned out to be a piece of Citibank, he fixed his eyes on the amount, one hundred thousand, and his eyes became enthusiastic.

"How embarrassing it is. I am also a second marriage, so I didn't do anything big, nor did I invite any friends to participate." Hansen Jonas took the check from James Cameron and put it into his jacket pocket.

"Hanson, this is your fault. No matter what, you should inform me this friend." James Cameron said righteously.

"My fault, my fault, next time, next time." Hansen Jonas hurriedly apologized.

And James Cameron secretly complained, next time he was a ghost, but he was relieved to see Hansen Jonas put the check away.

"Hanson, what about filming?" James Cameron took the opportunity to ask.

"Since I'm an old friend, how can I make you suffer? James, I'll take out a hundred screens to show your film in October, what do you think?" Hansen Jonas said.

"Hanson, a hundred screens are too few!" James Cameron said.

If it is to get a hundred screens, James Cameron is still looking for Hansen Yonas to do, just go to the temporary theater.

James Cameron is very optimistic about "Terminator", so he is unwilling to sell "Terminator" at a low price.

"James, you also know that "The Superstar" is our 20th Century Fox's own play. It is very difficult to move a hundred screens. Otherwise, wait, I will move you two hundred in November. How is the screen?" Hansen Jonas said.

Hansen Jonas could only promise October and November, or he would have to wait for next year.

As for December, don't think about it. It's a Christmas file. It's definitely a good time. The Christmas files of Twentieth Century Fox Films all show their own films, not independent production companies' films.

James Cameron shook his head when he heard the two hundred screens in November. For James Cameron, two hundred screens are still too few.

Seeing James Cameron's actions, Hansen Jonas was reluctant to act for him.

"James, then I can't help, I can only do this, and it is only worth it." Hansen Jonas said.

James Cameron heard the potential meaning of Hansen Jonas.

So he said: "I didn't mean that, but Hansen, can you introduce Mr. Lewis Royce for me? I'll talk to him." James Cameron said.

Hearing James Cameron's words, Hansen Jonas knew that James Cameron was very informative about this film.

I can't help but want to laugh, these directors are always blindly confident, thinking that their films can explode, and don't look at their identity.

It's the same with James Cameron. You, a new director, want to do something for someone else's life. How could this be possible.

But Hansen Jonas still persuaded: "James, even if you see Mr. Lewis Royce, there won't be too many changes. It's even better to listen to me. The schedule for November is good and there are many screens."

"Please, Hansen!" James Cameron said.

"Well, let me ask, but I don't guarantee success. You have to be prepared for failure, even if you don't see Mr. Lewis Royce," Hansen Jonas said.

"I understand, I know how to measure." James Cameron said.

"That's OK, then you sit here for a while, I'll go find it!" Hansen Jonas said.

"Please!" James Cameron said.

In this way, Hansen Jonas left the office, leaving James Cameron alone in the office waiting.

About ten minutes later, Hansen Jonas came back and said to James Cameron: "Dear friend, you are lucky. Mr. Lewis Royce is in the screening room and is already willing to watch your film. Let's go over. Bar!"

"No, my friend, we all had good luck." James Cameron said.

"Yes, luck is good, then let's go!" Hansen Jonas walked towards the screening room with James Cameron.

In the screening room, an old man was sitting on the sofa, and Hansen Jonas entered the screening room and walked directly towards the old man with James Cameron.

"Mr. Rice, this is James Cameron." Hansen Jonas said.

"Hello, Mr. Rice!" James Cameron said.

"I heard Hansen say that you have a film you want to be released on our Twentieth Century Fox?" Lewis Royce asked.

"Yes, sir, looking at the eight major Hollywood studios, I think the 20th Century Fox Film Company is the most powerful." James Cameron flattered.

"Speaking does not mean being capable. Everything depends on the film. If the film is too ugly, I will just cut it off." Lewis Royce said.

"Of course, this is your right, but I don't think that will happen." James Cameron believes.

"I am very confident, sit down, let's take a look!" Lewis Royce said.

"Thank you Mr. Rice." James finished speaking and sat beside Lewis Rice.

At the beginning of the film screening, the scene where the Terminator came to the world first caught everyone's attention.

In this life, because of Li Zhiwen, "Terminator" is more sophisticated, and because of the acquisition of Industrial Magic Light by Li Zhiwen, the special effects are very tight.

"It's an acquaintance, this actor is a good choice." Lewis Royce said.

Lewis Royce is talking about Schwarzenegger, who played the terminator. Schwarzenegger was a bodybuilder before, and his body and physique were all first-class.

At this time, James Cameron still let Schwarzenegger sit as the Terminator.

However, the fame of Schwarzenegger in the two generations cannot be compared at all.

When Schwarzenegger was filming "Terminator" in his previous life, even if he wasn't very popular, he still had little success.

In this life, because "Terminator" was four years ahead of schedule, Schwarzenegger is still an unknown person.

In this life, Li Zhiwen asked James Cameron to choose Schwarzenegger as the terminator.

And James Cameron met Schwarzenegger and was very satisfied.

However, Lewis Roys knows Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger has made movies for Twentieth Century Fox before, so he looks familiar.

The film continued to play, but James Cameron's attention was not on the screen. For this film, James Cameron devoted too much effort. Every action and every detail is engraved on James Cameron. Long's heart.

James Cameron's attention is entirely on Lewis Royce. James Cameron knows that this old man is the one who can give the final result of "Terminator."

I saw Lewis Royce watching the film, nodding and smiling from time to time, but never stopped the playback. James Cameron knew that "Terminator" was stable.

James Cameron secretly clenched his fist, suppressing his excited heart.

No one knows how much James Cameron paid for "Terminator."

From model making, to script, to filming, and finally to editing, James Cameron followed the whole process in order to get the film to explode. Now he finally sees hope.

The film ends when Sarah, played by Meg Ryan, is pregnant with a child, and the screening room falls silent again.

"Everyone, tell me about watching this movie?" Lewis Royce asked.

Lewis Royce, James Cameron and Hansen Jonas are not the only ones in the screening room.

Before James Cameron went into the screening room, there were others in the screening room, and apparently they had seen some films before.

"The film is compact, the story is strong, and it has the potential for fire."

"Much better than the one just now, the one just now was a mess of shit."

"It's much better than "The Superstar", which will be released next time by the company."

There was a lot of talk in the screening room, and it was obvious that there were a lot of people who were optimistic about "Terminator."

"I wonder what kind of schedule James would you like to get?" Lewis Royce said.

"This is all up to Mr. Lewis." James Cameron said.

"What if I only schedule the show for ten days?" Lewis Royce said with a smile.

"Of course it depends on Mr. Lewis, but I believe Mr. Lewis will not release such a good movie for ten days." James Cameron said.

"What a clever ghost!" Lewis Royce quipped.

"Mr. James, how about the Christmas gear?" Lewis Royce continued.

With a bang, James Cameron's head was about to explode. James Cameron never thought that he could get involved in the Christmas stalls.

The words of Lewis Royce made the people in the screening room also whisper. uukanshu.com is very puzzled why Lewis Royce wants to take out the Christmas stalls.

James Cameron took a deep breath and asked: "Mr. Lewis, don't know what I need to pay?"

There is no free lunch, James Cameron has always believed in this sentence.

So James Cameron didn't believe that Lewis Royce would take out the Christmas file so kindly.

"It's very simple, Mr. James only needs to buy us 20th Century Fox, and we will let "Terminator" appear in the Christmas file." Lewis Royce said with a smile.

The words of Lewis Royce made James Cameron's heart sink.

James Cameron knew that Li Zhiwen would never give up "Terminator", so this was simply an unsolvable problem, and he couldn't help but laughed at himself.

"Mr. Lewis Royce, I am afraid that this condition cannot be agreed!" James Cameron said.

"Mr. James doesn't want to listen to my request, 215 million US dollars, buy out "Terminator", I think the investment in this film should not exceed 6 million US dollars!" Lewis Royce said with a smile.

"Sorry, Mr. Lewis, forgive me for not agreeing. "Terminator" was invested by others, the story is also owned by others, and the copyright is owned by others, so I am not qualified to agree to this condition."

"And this investor is not short of money, his residence is in our east, Beverly Hills, so I believe he will not do this." James Cameron said.

"Oh? That's the case, then I'm very curious about what kind of person this is, who is talented and wealthy, but can Mr. James help me introduce it?" Lewis Royce became interested.

"It's okay, but I need to report back!" James Cameron said.

"Please!" Lewis Royce said.
