CHAPTER 298: JUST-A-JOKE

Give 1 million, then invoice 3 million.

This is the joke of the head of the Deyun Club, right? You Wu Xiang is wrong, right?

That's right, it's indeed his joke, but this joke hasn't been born yet, but Wu Xiang has begun to use it now.

Why do you want to use it like this? Can this guy Wu Xiang be reimbursed with public funds?

Of course not, Wu Xiang is a purely private enterprise, and he can only reimburse himself.

But don't forget, this "Source Code" was not filmed by Wu Xiang's family, there are several other companies in it.

Sam Mendes' Neil Street, and Miramax.

The budget is 30 million US dollars, and everyone invests money according to this budget, and then each takes a part of the shares, as if they are starting a company, and everyone will share the box office revenue in the future according to this.

But now, Wu Xiang found that to make a Hollywood film in our country, just this "Source Code", it would not cost 30 million US dollars at all.

30 million US dollars, this is 240 million RMB, 5 million RMB was used for the set, 500,000 yuan for the lunch box, and then the photography equipment, staff salaries, star salaries, these things add together, it seems that no matter how tossed it is, it is far from this budget.

So what to do?

Wu Xiang thought of this trick, open more invoices, so as to fool the foreign devils.

Well, this trick is indeed a bit undisciplined, but who makes the domestic 'production' cost so low now.

Not only did he issue more invoices, but Wu Xiang also paid more salaries to the personnel. It's our domestic personnel, and everyone's salary is on par with those Hollywood people, so so. Everyone is very happy, and the whole crew is full of energy.

However, Wu Xiang said again not long after, just this time, and then we will change it.

So, the employees complained again, saying that Wu Xiang was an iron rooster.

All right. Someone's role switch really quickly. But to be honest, Wu Xiang really didn't expect that a Hollywood film would come to China for shooting. It is to use the OEM method commonly used in industrial production, and the cost is so low that it is outrageously low!

It seems that it is impossible to report the accounts now, and Wu Xiang cannot be blamed for this. Nor is he a god. This movie OEM model has never been done before, and this time he is by no means a copycat, it is a real innovation. So, it's really normal to encounter this problem......

"Finish, dirt, shattered. Buddha, vice love eight ...... "What does this mean?"

"Hahaha...... "No matter what you say." Anyway, it caused a big laugh below.

At this time, the set of "Source Code" has become a small theater, and there is a strong man on the stage who should be Indian, making a strange appearance there, and this guy just said not only those strange things, but also his hands.

The audience is basically a crew member, mainly Hollywood people, and many domestic crew members, most of them don't laugh, and even they can't stand it, so they get up and leave.

Who is this 'Indian' and what is it just talking about?

The name of this 'Indian' is Russell Peters, and what he just said is that the English pronunciation of Korean descent is ONE, which is ONE, and TWOO......

Well, when it comes to the number SIX, it really makes people laugh, this Russell imitates the English pronunciation of Koreans very similarly, and this guy's action just now, that is, he is counting clothes, why do you want to count clothes?

It's very simple, because in North America, not only in the United States, there are a lot of Koreans engaged in the laundry business, which gives Russell a good opportunity to complain.

But why are the domestic crew members a little unlistenable?

Quite simply, because Russell Peters is a guy who makes fun of our English pronunciation.

"You can hear Chinese when you speak English...... THEY'RE LIKE CHOPPING VEGETABLES WITH ENGLISH WORDS, YOU KNOW, 'YOU-DON'T-KNOW-IT-QUICK......" RUSSELL'S VOICE IS VERY MUCH LIKE AN OLD MAN, INDEED VERY MUCH LIKE CHOPPING VEGETABLES, BUT YOU CAN ALSO HEAR THAT THIS ENGLISH HAS A STRONG CANTONESE FLAVOR IN IT.

Of course, if it was just that, it wouldn't make our people so disgusted, and Russell has a lot of embarrassing jokes.

But are we going to beat him up?

I'm sorry, you really can't do it, because this guy is not only joking with us, but also at other people's jokes, Vietnamese, Mexican, and even British pronunciation, these are nothing, he also makes jokes about his own people.

"How do Indians say hello? They ...... Hi Baba ......" out of a weird way, to be honest, it's really funny, it's indeed an Indian accent, and the more bizarre is still to come, "We Indian names are very tangled, my real name is RUSELL-PETERS, but my family is from India, and they also gave me this name." RUSELL-DOMINIC…… Look at you bastards, do you know the history of India?...... The British have been with us for 400 years, don't you think they can FU-CK one or two of our ancestors if they can't get it?"

When it comes to this place, people from Hollywood are all laughing back and forth, while our domestic crew members are basically in a stupid state.

Can a person make a joke about his ancestors like that? Is this a joke? Isn't that an insult?

But it's not over yet.

"If they really have the ability to take away all our gold and silver treasures, then it is very likely that one or two of them will FU-CK. That's my real name, my mom and dad are Indian, they gave me one, RUSELL-DOMINIC-PETERS' FULL NAME, DOMINIC, I have an Italian middle-name, because my mom and dad are from the Italian-occupied part of India! Kolkata. Zhilu said that place is not you?...... That's it, if you can't figure it out, you can ask my parents directly. ERIC-AND-MOREEN!……”

I have to say, this guy is very strange, his parents' name, a typical British name, and a typical French name......

In the face of a person who even makes jokes about his parents and his ancestors, are you embarrassed to beat him? Won't beating him lower your own standards?

And that's not all, there's more.

"And. MY BROTHER'S NAME IS JULIO!"

As soon as he said this, the Hollywood crowd laughed under the stool, which was a typical Spanish name.

"What the hell is this?" the Hollywood people choked with laughter. But the people on our side are really hard to understand, so Sun Daxing came over to complain to Wu Xiang, which means. How can such a bizarre show be allowed?

"This is a North American talk show. Wu Xiang replied. His expression was also a little helpless now.

Speaking of helplessness, this is true.

Wu Xiang's movie "Source Code", he is basically a copycat, but he still maintains the original. So in the original movie, there is this Russell Peters scene, although there are not many, but there are also a few scenes, and this Russell is also quite interesting. A cameo is also a cameo as himself, a comedian.

Russell Pieters. Maybe our domestic audience is not familiar with him, but abroad, especially in the United States, this guy is a very successful comedian.

He is Canadian, and he is also a Canadian of Indian origin, but the main area of this guy's activity is the United States, and the main thing about his talk show is to make jokes about all races, almost regardless of nationality, and the most jokes are made about his own nationality, India.

An Indian who jokes about his ancestors when he has nothing to do, you can imagine what a character with no lower limit this is, doesn't Wu Xiang know about Russell's style?

Of course, Wu Xiang knew it!

But since you know what to do, why do you want this guy to come? You can find someone else to make a cameo, or simply change the script, and kill this comedian?

Cheng, but Wu Xiang didn't do it, he still spent a lot of money on Russell to film this time, including a temporary talk show to amuse everyone.

And the reason why Wu Xiang did this was to fill the budget on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had his own plans.

"I know it's a talk show, but what this bastard said is too fucking annoying, isn't it? This even played with his own parents, is it human?" Sun Daxing was a little indignant.

"That's the style of people. Wu Xiang spread his hands.

"Angkor, let this guy stop talking about it, I see that many of our people are embarrassed. ”

"Okay, but you wait, I'll ask two questions first. ”

Wu Xiang seemed to be moved by Sun Daxing's words, and then he shouted towards Russell.

"Russell, you talk show like this, haven't you been beaten in the United States?"

"Ha Lu haha......" Wu Xiang's sentence was said in English, in the style of a talk show, which caused a lot of laughter, especially Hollywood people.

In fact, everyone has this feeling that Russell's talk show is full of ridicule between races, and there is often discrimination in it, but he has a good sense of proportion.

“NONONO…… Mr. Director, I've always been safe, and you know, it's just a joke, everybody is joking, and I'm even kidding myself, my dad is really called ERIC. Russell inadvertently made another joke.

"Ha Lu Ha ......" is very comedic.

But Wu Xiang asked again, "In the United States, those guys who are joked by you, they have our people, they are joked about by you like this, don't they have any other reaction?"

Wu Xiang pointed at himself, and of course Russell understood.

"Of course, a lot of people in your country, but they were laughing very badly, no matter how I joked, no matter how I said they would laugh, no problem, don't you think it's funny?"

After the question is asked, Wu Xiang's goal has been achieved, so let's get started.

"Alright, it's fun time, let's get to work!"

Why did Wu Xiang ask such a question, what was he doing?

Quite simply, Wu Xiang hopes that our domestic staff can understand what kind of society the United States is and what kind of state their thinking is.

There, while prohibiting people from discriminating against each other, they also allow such jokes to exist, to make jokes about different cultures between races, and even to ridicule you, so that you can't get off the stage, but you have to laugh.

And the most important thing is that the people who go there, even if they are people of our Chinese nation, want to really integrate into that society, you have to face such jokes, even if people are playing with your ancestors, you should laugh, and you should not have any sense of being insulted, just laugh, because isn't he also playing with his ancestors?

You must know that Russell Peters is very popular in the United States, that is to say, his talk show is in line with the mainstream thinking of the United States, at least in line with the mainstream thinking of ordinary people.

So when we go to the United States, do we have to play with our ancestors? Or do you have to laugh out loud when others ridicule your ancestors?

But if not, you're an outlier!

HEY-BRO-JUST-A-JOKE.

(Hey, buddy, this is just a joke.) (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you philipluo, Tianmeng, the sky! I, the monthly vote, thank you very much!

The talk show in the article is the classic talk show of Russell Pieters, which is real, and it is also 06 years, of course, the quotation here is not complete, but the black car swears, if you have completely watched it, (there is it on the Internet, no need to go over the wall) you will transform into Lu Xun, and mourn their misfortune and anger at those who are of the same nationality as us...... This is the difference between the two societies, the difference between people's thoughts, and what the black car presents to everyone is the real America.
