Chapter 692: Respect

Xiahua Primary School is a key primary school in Beijing, and students who can enter Xiahua Primary School often have an outstanding side, or have high learning talent, or have talent, and it is common to win awards in competitions, and there have been many outstanding students since the establishment of the school.

Normally, it is not so rare and precious for Niuniu to win the championship of the Chunya Cup singing competition, but it is completely different to be on CCTV news.

So the school gave a strong commendation, and even had the intention of treating her as a model for students, after all, Niuniu is excellent in all aspects, and her academic performance, moral thoughts, and even her appearance are all outstanding, and now she is a little star on the Internet.

And the impact of the song "Singing the Motherland" is not limited to Niu Niu, that is, the singer herself, Luo Kai, who is far away in France, received a call from Li Mengru again.

"It's good for you to go to France and don't care about anything..."

Li Mengru complained as soon as she opened her mouth: "I don't answer my mobile phone, everyone else calls me, and I'm annoyed to death." ”

"Where am I in France?"

Luo Kai really couldn't laugh or cry: "It's hard to make a movie, don't forget that there is your investment in "Across the Seas", you don't want your money to go down the drain, right?"

"Tell me, who is looking for you?"

In order to end the filming in France as soon as possible, after returning to France, he devoted himself to the work of sweeping the end, basically no longer caring about domestic affairs, and turned off his mobile phone most of the time to avoid being disturbed by the commotion.

Something really big is going to happen, and it's easy to get in touch with him.

Unexpectedly, it brought trouble to Li Mengru.

"It's the song "Singing the Motherland" you wrote, the people from the Chinese Music Association are looking for me, the people from CCTV are looking for me, and several TV stations, newspapers and magazines are also looking for me..."

Li Mengru said: "The media is looking for me to interview you, that's a good solution, the Chinese Music Association wants to get the authorization of "Singing the Motherland", and they intend to let you join the China Music Association." ”

After a pause, Li Mengru continued: "CCTV also wants to authorize it to be used as the opening song at the 11th National Day Gala, I can't make decisions for you, or you need to make your own decisions." ”

Luo Kai didn't expect the influence of "Singing the Motherland" to be so great, and said: "Okay, you send me the contact information of the other party, and I will talk to them myself." ”

"Singing the Motherland" is a classic patriotic theme work, Luo Kai didn't think about using this song for profit when he took it out, so as long as it is not used in business, there is no problem with free licensing.

CCTV's face must be given, and joining the Chinese Music Association is also a good thing, and he has no reason to refuse.

"That's good..."

Li Mengru breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How are you doing over there, when will you come back?"

Luo Kai said: "It's going to be soon. ”

Indeed, his days in France with the crew of "Across the Seas" have entered the countdown stage.

After the filming of the first two big scenes, the rest is basically the work of picking up the missing pieces, but for the sake of insurance, you need to shoot more materials.

Most of these materials may not be used in the future, but if they are missing, it will be difficult to come back and reshoot, so it is still necessary.

Nevertheless, by the end of May, the filming of "Across the Seas" in France was completed.

On May 27, Rokai met Baptiste and Honoré again at the headquarters of Sena Films.

He came over at Baptiste's invitation, and Baptiste introduced Rokai to a director.

The director's name is Ferrorand, he is in his 40s, he is from Lyon, France, but after graduating from the Paris Academy of Arts, he entered Hollywood, starting as a small theater assistant, and now he has become a well-known director in Hollywood.

A dual American and French national, Ferrorand is one of the more successful of all French-American Hollywood directors, and it was Baptiste who invited him to be the director of "Léon".

After seeing the finished script of "Léon", Ferrorand flew from the United States to Paris himself, mainly to meet Roquet, the screenwriter of "Léon".

"Hello Mr. Ferrorand..."

Luo Kai smiled and shook hands with Ferroran: "I have seen your "Legend of the Night", a wonderful film. ”

Ferrorand is best known for his Noir trilogy, in which "Legend of the Night", with an investment of only $27 million, won more than $300 million at the global box office, making his owner Connor Film Company of the United States a lot of money.

Luo Kai still watched "Legend of the Night" ten years ago, and he was quite impressed at the time.

However, in recent years, Ferrorand has not produced any outstanding works, and the Black Night trilogy seems to have consumed all his talent in directing.

"But 'Legends of the Night' isn't perfect enough..."

Ferrorand shrugged his shoulders and did not accept Rokai's compliment, he looked at the latter with blazing eyes: "I always wanted to make a work that could surpass 'Legend of the Night', but I failed several times, maybe it was God's mercy that made me see 'Léon'!"

Ferrorand, who was very fat and spoke in an angry voice, asked in an aggressive tone: "I think 'Léon' is a very wonderful story, a work that can be made into a classic, so Mr. Roquet, you are also a director, why did you let someone else shoot it?"

"Léon" is actually a product of the cooperation between Dream Media and Senna Films, and it is just a bargaining chip thrown by Luo Kai on behalf of Dream Media, and from the very beginning he expressed the idea of only participating in investment and not filming.

It was also Rokai who suggested that Baptiste find a Hollywood director to make Léon.

As the chosen one, Ferrorand clearly had some thoughts on it.

The atmosphere in the office was a little frozen, Honoré looked at Rokai and then at Ferrorand, and remained silent sensibly, Baptiste wanted to make a round, but before the words could be spoken, he heard Rokai smile and say: "I didn't participate in the filming of "Léon" because of my family. ”

"Huh?"

This reason obviously greatly surprised Ferrorand: "Your family?"

"Yes..."

"For me, family is more important than career, I want to spend more time with my daughter, and if I shoot Léon, I will undoubtedly break the promise I made to her," he replied. ”

Maybe filming "Léon" will win him more and higher honors, but for Luo Kai, filming "Across the Seas" in France is an exception, and forgetting his original intention for more fame and fortune is definitely not what he wants.

Ferrorand was silent for a full minute, then he stretched out his hand to Rokai: "You are a respectable father!"

The second one is sent.
