Chapter 4: The Beacon (4/5)

"It's a mystery detective... In addition to the story itself, there is also a layer of irony, the heroine must be Latino... You're not suitable!"

Lu Xiaoran glanced at Liu Yifei, then shook his head...

Lao Liu was a little disappointed, but he still nodded to indicate that he knew.

Picking up the apple in the fruit bowl, throwing it into his mouth, and eating it, Lu Xiaoran said: "I met Soderbergh last month, and he said that he wanted to create a female version of "Ocean's Eleven", and asked me to recommend a Chinese actress, you can try it... It's best to contact Wen Ziren first, there are a lot of messy things about American auditions!"

"The female version of Ocean's Eleven?"

"Yes, it's a lot of chaos in Hollywood, but if you turn up the number of followers on your Weibo, they shouldn't dare to do anything to you. ”

It is said that Tianbao was able to enter "Independence Day 2" to play soy sauce because the casting director looked at the number of her fans and then felt awesome...

A hundred million fans, you think it's a joke?

Platinum God, the first order of 40,000, terrifying!

"Sister Tangtang won't answer?"

"Her English is too bad, she has no interest..."

"Who's the director?"

“... Not very clear, I know that the starring roles are Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett... The producers are George Clooney and Steven Soderbergh, which is a Hollywood A-level production!"

Liu Shishi was very satisfied, turned his head and said to his girlfriend or boyfriend: "This opportunity is good, fight for it,"

“... But I'm contacting "Beacon Fangfei", and I may not be able to leave..."

"That's a problem..."

Lu Xiaoran, who turned on the TV on the side and was about to watch "Xun Qin" again, heard the conversation between the two and asked, "What kind of play is "Beacon Fangfei"?"

"The work of Billy August..."

"Who?"

Liu Yifei explained: "The Danish director has won the Palme d'Or twice!"

Lu Xiaoran immediately remembered: "The director of "Betrayal of Good Will", the screenwriter of that play is Ingmar Bergman, we used to study Bergman, Fellini, and Tarkovsky, and directly counted "Betrayal of Good Will" on Bergman's head, you say that director, we describe him as lucky!"

Immediately, he frowned: "This director is an author-type director..."

Liu Shishi explained: "This is a co-production, the original book is called "Rescue the Flying Tigers"..."

"What is the plot of "Rescue the Flying Tigers"?"

"It's the Chinese peasant women who come to the aid of the American pilots..."

Lu Xiaoran: ""Yellow River Love"?"

Liu Yifei hurriedly waved his hand: "... It's not...", it may not be easy to explain the difference between the two, but after pondering for a moment, he said, "Almost... But even more cruel, the script ended with the writing that 56 of the 64 US crew members who bombed Tokyo were rescued with the help of Chinese soldiers and civilians and finally returned to the United States safely, and then the Japanese army retaliated against the Chinese people, killing about 250,000 people in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Jiangsu..."

"Huh, are you sure this is the original script?"

"I don't know..."

"I'll search... Shi Shi, what is this story called?"

"Rescue the Flying Tigers, I don't hear it, it's an adaptation of real events!"

Lu Xiaoran quickly searched for the prototype characters, Ms. Zhao Xiaobao and... Her husband Ma Liangshui.

It's really a true story based on history!

After watching it, Lu Xiaoran was quite interested in "Beacon Fangfei": "Generally speaking, the human nature excavated from this kind of true story can move people more, who is playing your husband?"

Liu Yifei was a little embarrassed: "... My character is a widow..."

“...”

, this Nima lost her husband alive for the sake of art, no, he asked again: "You have an emotional scene with the rescued Flying Tigers?"

“... Yes..."

"This is the drama that the company invests in?"

"It seems to be a new private media company..."

Lu Xiaoran was speechless: "You have eaten too many brain tragic movies? If you want to reflect on the war, why do you want to promote the supremacy of white men? If this movie is in the United States, it is impossible to set up a project at all!"

The Chinese paid the white man director and the white man screenwriter to shoot a story about a bunch of Chinese saving the white man, in which the white man also talked about American-style love with the "Chinese widow"...

Still thinking about selling money in China?

No, what do you think?

In the current social atmosphere, the older generation is not confident in their bones, and they have a sense of worship for foreigners - not only white men, as long as you hang the face of foreigners, you can throw them away at will.

On the other hand, the post-00s and post-10s are arrogant, extremely confident, and pay attention to the right and wrong of their positions...

Admiration and extreme self-confidence are like a seesaw, you can never stand in the middle.

Because people are social creatures, attitudes depend on emotional thoughts.

One side is extremely flattering, and the other side will bottom out. Even if some people can think independently, this part is still human, and it is likely to fluctuate with the trend of thought.

Lao Lu is like this, it is a typical person who looks down on foreigners!

Otherwise, he can learn to be short and tight, and come to China to make money while holding an American green card, and by the way, he will propagandize that 'the best power for China is the United States...'

He really thinks that there is nothing great about the United States, and he thinks that Hollywood is like that, and the United States is like that...

Especially after listening to the big golden retriever say 'European and American countries rumored that 5G leads to empathy, and then, a group of Britons burned 5G signal towers' - a low-end mentally retarded theory, so many people believe it?

Therefore, he looks down on films like "Beacon Fangfei".

"Don't take this kind of film, you have been boycotted by many people because of your nationality, and this film also promotes the supremacy of white men... I guess it will be banned, and even if it doesn't get banned, I will find a way to ban this drama!"

Liu Yifei's face turned pale and nodded...

Talking about this, Tangtang is back.

......

Spring Festival stalls...

is still continuing, on the seventh day of its release, "Riding the Wind and Waves" surpassed "Journey to the West"...

"Sunshine Sisters" won the Spring Festival box office champion, with a box office of 1.4 billion, "Journey to the West" is the second place, 1.15 billion, and "Kung Fu Yoga" is 980 million...

Therefore, this year's Spring Festival stalls lack phenomenal works!

"Sunshine Sisters" is too gentle, too warm, and most importantly, without the blessing of big-name stars, it lacks the must-see style of "The Martian".

Although it won the box office champion, Orange Ticketing predicts that the total box office of "Sunshine Sisters" should be around 2.1 billion.

Soon, new films such as "Extreme Agent", "Battle of the God of Food", "La La Land", "Contract Man and Woman", "Crazy Beauty", "The Voice" and so on will be released...

At the same time, Lu Xiaoran arrived in Hong Kong, and there was no filming plan for the first week, and he was busy dealing with the listing of Orange Ticket on the Hong Kong stock market.

For Hong Kong stock listing, the most important thing is to have someone subscribe, retail investors or foundations.

Lu Xiaoran has already negotiated with Fujisun Venture Capital Foundation, and they will take over most of the outstanding shares of Orange Ticketing, with a pricing range of HK$14.8-20.4 per share and a valuation of US$2.2-3 billion...
