Yang Jian has already gained influence in the entertainment industry, and many people want to embrace him.
On the morning of the second day of the party, an outsider asked for his contact information and wanted to meet with him to discuss cooperation.
This person's name is Huang Yiyu, and he is an ordinary-looking Chinese screenwriter. He wears a neat suit and glasses. His face is a bit round, his head is slightly messy, he speaks in a low voice, and he seems to have a good temper.
He brought a script to Yang Jian and wanted to cooperate with Huaer Pictures to make a movie. Huaer Pictures has hired new directors many times, and the movies have all been box office hits, giving many people the opportunity to become famous.
Huang Yiyu's resume is not pretty. He dared to find Yang Jian because everyone is Chinese and felt that he could talk to Yang Jian.
In the mid-1980s, Huang Yiyu began to seek positions in the film and television industry after graduating from college, working as a part-time job on various crews. Later, he became a screenwriter and worked for a small film production company.
His experience is very similar to that of Drake Croft, but he does not have the same luck and conditions as Drake, and he keeps hitting walls.
In 1993, due to the relatively low salary and lack of work for film screenwriters, Huang Yiyu was unable to maintain daily expenses, so he chose to write scripts for a TV station to make a living. The project Huang Yiyu was responsible for was the science fiction TV series "The X-Files"
, in addition to participating in the creation of the script, he also served as the director of several episodes.
His script was a backup script for "The
Dream.
Yang Jian read the script for a while, it was "Death is Coming".
He had considered letting Huaer Pictures shoot this series of movies a few years ago. As a result, the company's development momentum was so strong that it started to produce the "Fast and Furious" series, so he put the matter behind him.
Unexpectedly, Huang Yiyu himself came to the door now, so it was naturally impossible for him to miss this talent.
The two chatted about the movie script for a while, and then started chatting, not only in English, but also in Chinese.
Huang Yiyu's family immigrated to the United States from Hong Kong when he was 10 years old. He cannot speak Mandarin well and has a funny accent. He is 40 years old this year and his career is not considered successful. He has tried every means to prove that he has not forgotten his roots and is proficient in Chinese culture. I hope Yang Jian can
Treat him as one of your own.
Then he succeeded and found that Yang Jian communicated better than he thought. Yang Jian did not have the airs of a celebrity as the news said, and he could chat patiently with ordinary people like him.
Yang Jian smiled and said, "I like this script very much. If you are confident that it will be a good success and you want to be a director, I can satisfy you. If Huaer Pictures is willing to make this movie, don't look for other companies. See you later."
Someone from the company will contact you to discuss the specific situation."
"Thank you, thank you very much." Huang Yiyu didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Yang Jian read the script for a while and made a decision without thinking much about it.
He thinks this is because Yang Jian wants to support a compatriot like him. It is really difficult for Chinese people to mix in Hollywood.
Yang Jian asked: "You're not in a hurry to film, are you? Because Drew is filming a movie recently, I guess I don't have time to deal with this drama. I have to wait until she finishes filming before casting. I have to play basketball games, and I don't have time to be a producer."
"
Huang Yiyu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I can wait. There's no rush."
Of course he would prefer Yang Jian to be a producer, as the gimmick is too great. Yang Jian doesn't need to make a cameo appearance, the movie can attract countless people's attention.
"Then it's okay. Just be prepared, the pressure may be greater. Because so far, Hua'er Pictures has never had any movie with a global box office of less than 100 million U.S. dollars. This record cannot end because of you.
"
"I will try my best." Huang Yiyu's blood boiled, as if he had returned to his early 20s, and his small eyes under his glasses shone brightly.
Guaranteed 100 million box office, this is something he never dared to think about before. He thinks that if his big screen debut can attract 10 million investment, make a movie that makes a profit at the box office, and the reputation is not bad, it will be a success.
Since Yang Jian is willing to invest in this drama, it proves that he believes that this script has a future and may have a box office of over 100 million. This idea made Huang Yiyu more confident in his script, and gave birth to the idea that a scholar will die for his confidant.
He worked hard to make this movie. His remuneration is negotiable. Opportunities are more important than making money.
Yang Jian is indeed optimistic about the script and the director Huang Yiyu. Huang Yiyu in the parallel world has directed several movies and the box office results are not bad.
His "Waterloo" was directing the movie "Dragon Ball: Total Evolution". This was an act of courting death. Looking at the turtle Qigong gestures he made when turning on the camera to take pictures, you can tell that he was not familiar with the original comics at all.
After this bad movie hit the streets, Huang Yiyu never worked as a director again. All the leading actors were also unlucky, and there were almost no movies to make. In the future, Yang Jian only needs to mention a few words, and Huang Yiyu can avoid this disaster.
As for whether to mention something or not, it all depends on his performance.
Yang Jian had dinner with Barrymore at noon and talked about it. Barrymore believed in his vision and had no objection to the filming of this movie. For low-cost horror and thriller movies, making money is making money. Who doesn't like money?
Yang Jian's party at home last night made the news, and some Lakers fans thought this was a good opportunity to defeat the Sonics.
This is the focus of this round, broadcast live across the United States.
That night, the two sides launched an offensive battle.
O'Neal dominated the penalty area, scoring 31 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists, and his shooting percentage was as high as 66.7%. It is impossible for Ben Wallace to defend O'Neal alone, so he can only try his best to wear him down.
The Lakers' outside players also gave O'Neal some support. Kobe made 8 of 15 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 20 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.
However, the SuperSonics easily won 119 to 103. Under the leadership of Yang Jian, the SuperSonics destroyed the Lakers' perimeter and the team made a total of 21 three-pointers.
Yang Jian faced the defense of Kobe Bryant and Derek Harper with ease. He played 40 minutes and made 13 of 20 shots, 7 of 13 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, and scored 40 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals.
Payton made 14 of 23 shots, 6 of 10 three-pointers, and scored 34 points, 4 rebounds, 11 assists, and 2 steals.
The two of them scored 74 points, with a ridiculously high shooting percentage.
Veteran Dale Ellis had a higher shooting percentage than the two of them. He made 7 of 10 shots, 5 of 5 three-pointers, and 1 of 1 free throws in 24 minutes of play. He scored 20 points with no rebounds or assists.
Ellis's shooting percentage from the baseline was too high. Once the opponent double-teamed Yang Jian, he caught the ball and scored. He made an air cut and scored 21. He weighed more than Eddie Jones and relied on his opponent to complete the game.
Layup.
The SuperSonics have very concentrated possession of the ball. Others don't take many shots and have average shooting percentages, but they can win with the performance of just three people.
The Lakers management is already preparing to make big trades in the mid-term, and also plans to change coaches after the season. The current head coach is Kurt Rambis, and his approach to coaching is incomprehensible.
He actually put Kobe in the starting lineup, but Eddie Jones suffered a loss when he played small forward.
Obviously the backup point guard Fisher is better defensively, but Rambis chose to reuse the veteran. Derek Harper, who is 193cm tall, is 37 years old and is too slow to play as the starting point guard. He will have a big problem against Yang Jian's counterattack.
.
Moreover, the Lakers still play a twin-tower strategy, and neither inside line has shooting range. They are slow to defend when encountering counterattacks, and they cannot defend outside shots well in positional battles.
The Lakers also signed Dennis Rodman as a substitute, who played more minutes than Donyel Marshall, a soft-shooting power forward. Rodman didn't defend the pick-and-roll much, and only stayed near the penalty area to grab rebounds when he played.
.
Rodman is hopeless. He is obsessed with rebounding and doesn't care about defense or the team's win or loss. Nowadays, no one thinks that Rodman rebounding is an art. He is just a data brush.
Moreover, Rodman only grabbed 6 rebounds, and the SuperSonics' Ben Wallace was not a vegetarian in grabbing rebounds.
