"Director Gore, I heard you're not going to direct the fourth pirate series, are you?"

The audience was silent.

Everyone's eyes were projected, but the reporter did not mean to be moved in the slightest, but stared at Gore with more and more bright eyes, waiting for the great director's answer.

Xu Promise's face couldn't help but be slightly gloomy.

Gore isn't ready to direct a fourth film?

This doesn't make sense, the third part has not been released, can you know how the box office and word of mouth are?

But the question is, you're a director and have had the opportunity to make such a good series, why would you want to turn it down?

Promise to be silent.

"Where did you hear this news?" Gore asked, slightly stunned.

"Grapevine. The reporter said with a smile.

"You also said that it is grapevine, in this case, I can tell you very responsibly that if I am asked to direct the fourth film in the pirate series, I will continue to direct, and as for the change of director when the time comes, I will also help the new director. Gore did not follow the reporter's words and answered.

"Let's play a game. ”

Seeing that things were getting worse, the host decisively interrupted this kind of questioning and turned it into a game session. And then directly ignored the reporter's questions, and the roadshow was a complete success.

In the conference room after the roadshow.

"Director Gore, I have also figured out the situation of that reporter, he is not a reporter from Huaxia, to be precise, a reporter from an entertainment news company in North America. ”

"I did hear the gossip this time, so don't be angry with such a person! Let's hurry up and study our second roadshow. The person in charge of the crew comforted.

"I'm fine. ”

Gore smiled slightly, indicating that it was okay.

The crew then left.

"Xu, can I talk to you for a while?" Just as Xu promised to leave, Gore suddenly asked.

"Of course!"

Then he promised to stay in the conference room with Gore, two cups of tea rising in front of them, breathing in this faint fragrance, Gore's tone suddenly increased.

"Do you have any thoughts on that reporter's question?"

"Me?"

Xu Promise pointed to his nose, shrugged his shoulders casually and said: "I think that reporter is lying, such a thing simply cannot happen, as we all know, the pirate series is a big IP that operates very successfully." ”

"If there is no accident in this third part, the word-of-mouth and box office results will be very conspicuous, with such results, why would you stop directing, right?"

"That's not right!"

Who would have thought that Gore would shake his head, and said in a somewhat bitter tone: "No wind and no waves, let me tell you, I'm really powerless, the fourth part of the pirate series has nothing to do with me." ”

"What do you mean?" the promise was stunned.

"The simple meaning is that for some complicated reason, I can't continue directing. And this matter is a secret in Huaxia, but it is not a very secret thing in the high-level of the North American film and television industry, and many people know about it. ”

"Of course, I also know that the audience in China doesn't care who the director is, what they value is whether the pirate series will be filmed. I will keep you because I think our cooperation this time is very good, so I want to get to know you thoroughly, and this bottom line is that you have to be a little mentally prepared. ”

"The fourth movie may not have you!"

Gore's words revealed a kind of helpless sadness, is he really reluctant to direct? No, just by looking at his expression, you can know that there is a deeper reason for this.

And he is really satisfied with the cooperation with Xu.

"Director Gore, in fact, this matter is very normal, I will continue to shoot if I can, if not, I don't mean that you have to count on this movie to live, it's okay, you don't have to have too much burden in your heart. Promise reassured.

It's a little awkward, but that's the attitude of promise.

If you don't invite me to the fourth part, I won't invite me, it's impossible for me to change your mind, but please remember that I am the actor of China and an actor with a high reputation at international film festivals.

No matter who is the director, if you want to release it in Huaxia, you have to consider how much this market will affect you.

Can it really be the same with me and without me?

"I wanted to continue to set the plot for you in the script of the fourth part, but if I weren't the director, no matter how good the script was, the new director would definitely not take care of it. ”

"So I am saying this to you in the hope that you will understand my suffering. That's the first thing I want to say, and the second thing is our trip to Korea. ”

Gore's words changed abruptly.

"A trip to South Korea?" promised a bit of a surprise.

"Yes, it's a trip to South Korea, this time to South Korea, we're going to a roadshow. But in addition to the roadshow, there are also other things to do. To tell you the truth, I know that you are the star and investor of "Parasite", so are you interested in continuing to invest in South Korea?"

"If you're interested, I can help you recommend a collaborator. What he lacks is money and prestige, and if you join him, it will help his film career. ”

That's what Gore is for.

He wanted to match the promises.

I see.

Xu Promise's heart suddenly became clear, although he didn't know why Gore didn't direct the fourth pirate movie anymore, but he did it now, it should be planned in the future of his reign.

Introducing Korean filmmakers, is it good for Gore to be able to do so?

Or Gore also wants to be one of the investors, so that he can have a share of the movie made in this way.

Of course, promises will not oppose such a thing, so why should they oppose it? Since some people want to make a bridge and make money for themselves, why not do it? After all, everyone is happy to see this kind of thing that can make foreign capital in an open and honest way.

If you don't do it, you don't do it.

If you want to make a promise, you have to be a harvester in the Korean film market.

Just imagine, if it is said that more than 10 million works in the Korean film market have the shadow of promise, how strong such an influence will be, and who will dare to underestimate promises at that time.

Maybe I can apply for another company, so that this company can be used exclusively to invest in and shoot Korean films, and operate independently from the studio.

The idea popped up in Promise's mind and was instantly finalized.

Gore looked at the promise expectantly, waiting for his answer, willing or not?

"Okay!"

Promise a gentle smile in agreement.

Gore's tense nerves relaxed.
