Chapter five hundred and ninety third you are really slow
Is Hodgson stupid? No doubt not. It's just that arrogance is engraved in their bones and has become an instinct. Especially when facing Chinese Americans, they have never understood it at all and just treat it based on a stereotype.
This world is all about strength, and Fang Zhe's current level of strength is far beyond what Hodgson can compare to. She is willing to talk to him in person simply because the other party represents the Fox TV station.
Once arrogance becomes a habit, it is impossible to change it unless you make a big mistake.
Doug Liman came over excitedly, but the secretary at the door stopped him: "Boss and Ms. Marilyn are discussing something important. Please wait a moment." Doug Liman glanced at the door meaningfully.
, smiled and sat on the side, taking the coffee brought by the secretary.
This is Hollywood. Doug Liman's eyes drifted over Bova, who was looking around in boredom.
After finishing a cup of coffee, the secretary invited him in. Doug Liman put down the cup and expressed his thanks before knocking on the door.
Secretary Julia thought silently in her heart that the smell of air freshener was actually not good. Of course, she was also a little envious. Not everyone was qualified to sit in it. In her opinion, everything Marilyn did
It's all a matter of course. This is Hollywood, and it's very difficult for a woman to be in a high position. Now that she has it, she must hold on tightly.
Seeing the red sofa, Doug Liman smiled and greeted the two of them politely. Fang Zhe stood up and shook hands with enthusiasm. It was a bit cold, so it must have been freshly washed. Doug Liman was very observant.
"How's it going? How is the crew preparing? When will filming start?" Fang Zhe was still very concerned about this issue.
"If there is no problem with funding, we can start the machine in three days." Doug Liman came to talk about work, and he was very direct.
Fang Zhe looked at Marilyn, what's the progress on your end?
Marilyn stood up and spoke, with no intention of coming over: "Fox agreed on the phone yesterday that they will invest half of it, which is about US$50,000,000. The money should be in the crew's account in three days."
"Who is the leading actor? I remember emphasizing in the script that he must be handsome!"
Doug Liman smiled: "Hollywood does not lack handsome guys, nor does it lack handsome guys with acting skills. What it lacks is just an opportunity. So, this problem has never been a problem. As Fang emphasized in the script, whether it is action
It’s still special effects. The overall effect is that women should be calm and sexy, while men should be masculine and handsome, looking very chic.”
This is very implicit. The director of this movie is the key. This is a popcorn movie.
"The big scenes of True Lies were well shot, but the style of this film is different. There is a scene in the script where the heroine takes off her shoes and walks barefoot on the floor. She adjusts her clothes while walking to make her movement easier.
…So, I think I’ve got a sense of how this movie should be able to express its essence.”
Doug Liman knew that Fang Zhe and Marilyn were worried. After all, they were working in production. It was quite embarrassing for a new director.
"Okay, I look forward to your success." Fang Zhe concluded with a smile and did not continue, expressing his trust in him.
I have met several other directors, but in general, the style expressed by Doug Liman is the most suitable for Fang Zhe.
Doug Liman knew very well that Pinnacle Pictures chose him because of his teacher's recommendation and because his style was favored. The person who made the decision was the young rich man in front of him. He is a rich man at such a young age, and he is still a self-made rich man.
To be honest, Doug Liman was actually a little stressed when facing Fang Zhe.
Especially when he learned that most of Pinnacle Pictures' scripts came from Fang Zhe's studio, he felt it was simply ridiculous.
Doug Liman had a lot to do, so he decisively chose to leave at this moment. He just came to say hello.
When he walked to the door, Doug Liman remembered it, turned around and said with a smile: "The actor's name is Brad Pitt."
Fang Zhe smiled and nodded to show that he understood. He still had an impression. History is such an amazing coincidence. Of course, Brad Pitt's personal so-called moral issues, come on, this is Hollywood, who is cleaner than who?
"I've made an appointment to sign a contract with someone from Fox Films tomorrow. Would you like to go there, Boss?"
Fang Zhi thought for a while: "Forget it, you are the CEO. I will visit the crew of "American Pie 2" tomorrow."
At the dinner table, the rare people were all present. When Fang Zhi saw Aunt Zhou, she remembered about arranging work, so she smiled and asked: "Aunt Zhou, what kind of job does your daughter want to do? If possible, I will arrange one for her."
How’s the clerk’s job?”
Although she is said to be a clerk, she is actually doing odd jobs. The question is, what can she do? It is impossible to have a good job.
Fortunately, Aunt Zhou was very sensible and repeatedly said it was okay.
In the study after dinner, Yun Jue came in and said, "I still need an assistant to carry my bags. Let her follow me."
Fang Zhe patted his legs. Yun Jue didn't mean to be shy now. He came over and sat down: "Are you worried that I'll eat it secretly?"
"I'm worried that she will embarrass you. She went to a community college, and it's a three-year program. In the United States, a person like this is a Chinese. To put it bluntly, she can't even find a job at the front desk, unless she finds a job as a waiter in Chinatown.
.”
Wu Mingzhu pushed the door open and came in. She laughed when she saw this scene. She held her hands and said, "That little girl might as well follow me. I'm just a maid who brings tea and water." Fang Zhe patted Yun Jue's butt: "You're late.
Yes, she made a reservation."
Wu Mingzhu smiled and shook her head: "I always take a step slowly. By the way, that company called Twitter has officially started trial operation. They are different from us. They face the whole society. Do you think we should change?
Strategy?"
"We won't use it for the time being. We will mainly focus on attracting young people. Young people have stronger consumption impulses and are better advertising resources. When HBO's advertising effect comes out, there will naturally be no shortage of advertising follow-up in the future."
Yun Jue twisted her waist and moved her body, as if she was adjusting her comfortable sitting posture: "Don't forget, you also invested in an Internet company. It seems that you have never seen it."
Uh-huh, Google, Fang Zhe remembered, this company is growing very fast. But now is not the time. We have to wait until the Internet bubble bursts before we care about it.
"The company is not in a hurry. The two people in charge are very capable. They can run the company well. It has to be dead or different. This is what we built with our own hands. I think we can start the financing plan now, before the end of the year."
As long as you can negotiate good terms. Your focus is still on the financial market, so hurry up and close out the long orders in your hands."
Yun Jue stood up, smiled and said, "Then I'll go back first, and you guys can talk."
Wu Mingzhu watched Yun Jue leave and suddenly smiled and said, "Guess what I saw."
"Don't guess, you've seen it all." Fang Zhe took the tissue she handed and wiped his pants.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I never thought that she would have times like this." Wu Mingzhu seemed to be teasing, but also feeling emotional.
Fang Zhe leaned back: "Tell me, what do you want to talk about?"
"HBO has decided to launch the next round of variety shows. Which actress will they choose next? Who will the male choose?"
Fang Zhe looked at her with a strange expression: "This is a lottery, it's about luck. Of course, you decide this luck. Why do I think there's something in your words?"
Wu Mingzhu stepped forward, imitated Yun Jue's movements and sat down. She leaned closer and whispered in her ear: "You are still young and in good health, but you must cherish it and don't spend too much energy on other things."
After finishing speaking, he stood up, stretched out his hands to straighten Fang Zhe's clothes, turned around and swung his hips.
MMP, there is a spy around. You know who it is without asking. It seems that there will be no freedom in the United States from now on. Or is it her guess? Fang Zhe is a little confused. It is said that Bova has always been very tight-lipped. No, it is strict.
You won't know until you try it.
Fang Zhe thought it was better to ask in person, so he got up and went downstairs. Bova lived downstairs, as did Wu Mingzhu and Yun Jue's personal bodyguards. After knocking on the door, there was a sound inside, and he waited for a while before opening the door.
.At first glance, it was not Bova, but Katyusha.
This hairy girl was wearing a nightgown with straps, as if it had not been tied up in a hurry, and it was loose. She pressed the door with one hand and looked at Fang Zhe with her face exposed: "What's the matter? Now is private time."
"Where's Bo Wa? I'm asking her something." Fang Zhe didn't go in, but took a step back to avoid suspicion, so as not to upset the jealousy.
A blushing Bova appeared with an innocent look on her face: "Is something wrong?"
Smelling the odor of alcohol, Fang Zhe frowned and said, "How much have you drunk? Drink some later. Don't drink too much and keep your mouth shut."
Fang Zhe left without saying a word. Bova watched him leave with a confused look on her face, then looked at Katyusha: "What did you say to Wu?"
"My dear, I'm sorry, I just said something casually." Katyusha quickly apologized. Bova raised her hand and gave her a slap on the butt, closed the door angrily, and warned in a low voice: "Listen, we can
It’s not easy to have such a relaxing career, so don’t screw it up. Fang is a very generous person, but he also has to divide things up.”
"Don't be so serious, I think Fang cares about Wu very much." Katyusha defended, and Bova reached out to touch her pretty face: "Fang and Wu are our own people? Do you understand?"
Fang Zhe felt that the reaction of these two people was very strange. Of course, it was normal to wear anything after closing the door, but Bova's outfit just now still looked normal, but the expression was too rare, as if it was a reaction to strenuous exercise.
Fang Zhe suddenly thought of a question and said to himself: "Isn't it? It's very possible."
Dong Dong Dong, hurriedly walked upstairs, thinking of the scene of two women together, Fang Zhe suddenly became restless.
Wu Mingzhu didn't expect Fang Zhe to come over so swaggeringly. She was lying on the bed watching TV with dazzling eyes, and gently raised her waist to make it easier for him to move.
Afterwards, Fang Zhe smoked a cigarette and asked: "Bova and Katyusha are not normal, they are too abnormal."
Wu Mingzhu asked in surprise: "You don't know? You are really slow!"
