Chinatown, Los Angeles.

In a somewhat dilapidated building, a well-dressed young man stood in front of a mirror and squeezed out a bitter smile, a sincere smile mixed with something intriguing.

After a long time, when his facial features trembled, he stretched out his hands and rubbed his somewhat sour cheeks.

After spending a little time washing, he walked straight out of the small bathroom and came to the small living room, which was so small that it could only fit a dining table and a black and white TV with an unknown number of hands.

The young man sat silently on his chair and finished his breakfast, and was about to get up to clean up the scraps, when there was a knock at the door, and he heard the news and walked to the door.

"Who are you?"

Seeing two unfamiliar Asian faces standing outside the door, the young man asked suspiciously.

One of them asked, "Are you Mr. Zunlong?"

"Yes, I am. Zun Long nodded.

"That's right. Let me introduce myself, my name is Chen Youliang, and we are the ...... of Huanyu Film Company."

"Universal Films?"

Zun Long frowned, he didn't remember what Universal Film Company he had submitted his resume to.

"Yes, that's right, our boss has seen your performance in the movie "King Kong", is very optimistic about you, and wants to sign you to become an actor in our Huanyu Film Company. Saying that, Chen Youliang took a closer look at Zunlong's appearance, he was quite handsome, no wonder the big boss was impressed by his small role of only appearing for a few seconds.

Zun Long interrupted: "I'm sorry, I've been an actor for more than a year, but I don't seem to have heard of your Huanyu Film Company. ”

"It's normal that Mr. Zunlong hasn't heard of it. ”

Chen Youliang smiled and said: "Our Huanyu headquarters is in Hong Kong, and we have never produced films alone in the United States, so our reputation is not obvious, but when it comes to the movies that our company has invested in, I think you must have heard of it." ”

"1999 was invested by your company?" said Zun Long.

"Yes, 1999 was filmed in collaboration with Twentieth Century Fox, and the Jurassic Park that Fox is promoting recently also has our company's investment. ”

Chen Youliang continued: "Mr. Zun Long, I have read your information, you have studied and settled in the United States for 70 years, and you have been living in Hong Kong before, I think you should have heard the name of our boss. ”

"I don't know?" Zun Long wondered.

"Our boss is the author of "1999"......"

Huo Yaowen!

Zun Long suddenly wanted to go to the world-renowned Chinese writer who showed him the way at the airport when he first came to the United States.

……

When he was still in contact with Zunlong at the United States Huanyu Branch, he was in the Hong Kong Huanyu headquarters on the other side.

"King Kong's box office has 6 million?"

Hearing Wen Yingguang say that the box office of King Kong broke six million, Huo Yaowen couldn't help but look at him in surprise and said, "No, it's been almost three months since it was released, and it's still being screened?"

"Who made this movie make money. ”

Wen Yingguang said helplessly: "I asked people to go to the Anle Cinema Line in the morning, and found that there are still a lot of people queuing up to buy tickets, I think that Jiang Zuyi's Anle Cinema Line only has three theaters, I'm afraid it would have broken 10 million box office long ago." ”

The box office of the movie "King Kong" abroad is actually not very high, and it has not set off any big repercussions, who would have thought that it would be so popular when it was released in Hong Kong!

has been screened for three months in a row, and there are still people queuing up to buy tickets to watch four taels of meat, with this money, it is better to go directly to see Li Hanxiang's new film "Wind and Snow Moon", this movie is the real meat seller, the absolute meat bomb impact.

"Then how is the box office of our "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"?"

Huo Yaowen roughly guessed in his heart why "King Kong" sold so well, it was nothing more than some of the meat-selling plots in it, plus she was still a blonde and blue-eyed ghost girl, which was quite exciting for the current male audience, and it was understandable to watch it a few more times.

Wen Yingguang sighed and said: "Because many viewers have gone to watch "King Kong", our "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" can exceed the box office of four million, and it will be screened in theaters. ”

The box office of four million is actually quite good, better than the previous "Zombie Dao Chang 2", plus the investment is not very large, many scenes are left over from the zombie Dao Chang crew, which is a big profit.

It's just that this number is too different from what Wen Yingguang expected before, and it is inevitable that he will be a little unwilling.

Huo Yaowen is the same, he has high hopes for the Ghost Blowing Lantern series, who would have thought that the psychedelic zombie film would be made bad by his peers, resulting in the poor box office of "Zombie Dao Chang 2", and then a meat-selling masterpiece "King Kong" appeared, which was screened for three consecutive months, which made the box office of Ghost Blowing Lantern much lower.

"Four million is good, I think Anle Cinema will be screened this month at most. ”

Huo Yaowen thought of "Sweet Honey", which will be released at the beginning of next month, and said to Wen Yingguang: "If "Sweet Honey" will be released next month, remember to ask Golden Harvest to give a good schedule." ”

"Don't worry, general manager, I informed the theater line early in the morning. After Wen Yingguang finished speaking, he hesitated: "Will the ghost blow the lamp and the zombie Taoist shoot in the future?"

"Shoot, definitely shoot. ”

Although the box office is not as expected, it is still profitable, and "Zombie Road Chief 1" has been handed over to Toho Co., Ltd. of Japan for distribution, as long as the box office in Japan is there, this series can continue to be filmed.

"Then I'll go talk to Lin Zhengying and them later, and let them prepare the third part. ”

"Hmm. ”

The two chatted for a while about the company's recent operations, and suddenly Wen Yingguang took out a piece of paper from the drawer of his desk, "By the way, general manager, this is the list of invitations to the film festival that I envisioned." ”

After taking the list, Huo Yaowen only glanced at it, and then stared at him with a strange look: "Do you want to invite the godfather's director Coppola and actor Marlon Brando?"

"Not only the two of them, but I also want to invite Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn ......"

Wen Yingguang gushed out the names of more than a dozen international superstars and directors.

"It's good to have ideas, but remember to think big. ”

Huo Yaowen patted him on the shoulder and forced a smile.

Not to mention whether Marlon Brando will come to Asia to participate in a newly established film festival at this time, Audrey Hepburn, who has been in the film for many years, may not be able to move.

He's not Wang!

"I ...... I just want to raise the reputation of the festival. ”

Wen Yingguang naturally heard that there was something in the boss's words, and his embarrassed face turned red.

"Alright, I know you mean well, but don't even think about these people. ”

Huo Yaowen glanced down at the list again, isn't this a joke? How could these people say that they would invite them.

But like Eastwood, George Lucas, Spielberg...... These people can still be invited.

Anyway, they have also cooperated with Huo Yaowen, plus the post-production of "Jurassic Park" is about to be completed, and the second part of "1999" is about to be filmed.

As for inviting Marlon Brando to the film festival, well...... Forget it, even if he is willing to come, I'm afraid he will have to spend money, he doesn't want to spend millions of dollars in vain just to invite someone to come to the platform to cheer.
