Paul is a brown-haired white man, handsome in appearance, with three-dimensional facial features, which is particularly in line with the aesthetics of Europeans and Americans. If Liu Pian and Paul are juxtaposed, most Chinese people will say that Liu Pian is more handsome, and Europeans and Americans will say that Paul is more handsome.

People who are handsome, talented, and have a background will undoubtedly be very popular. Like Paul. His father is a well-known Hollywood director Ronald, who has made countless excellent works in the film industry for decades, including literary and artistic word-of-mouth films and commercial box office films.

Paul was born immersed in movies, and when he grew up, he honorably inherited Ronald's craft and became a director, a director who is currently well-known in Hollywood.

The people at USC Film School couldn't be more familiar with him, young and golden, and some female students were very willing to be unspoken by him.

While everyone sat down, Liu Pian asked Zhou Mulan in a low voice in Chinese, "What's wrong with this guy, you don't seem to want to see him?"

"The grievances of the older generation. Zhou Mulan muttered, "His dad and our family have a bit of a holiday, and he never takes on Universal and Warner movies, but he works very diligently with Paramount and other Hollywood studios, and every time his blockbuster is released, he will squeeze my family's movies, and the box office has been robbed a lot." ”

"Uh... That can only show that people are good at making movies... His movies are not awesome, and they can't steal the box office. ”

"That's what you say, but when you watch real gold and platinum being snatched away, do you feel good? The film market is so big, they take a little more, we take a little less. ”

"It's a little uncomfortable, but people have real skills, what can you do with him?"

Zhou Mulan was speechless, and said angrily, "Hey, who are you, how can you help others speak." ”

"Of course I'm with you. Liu Pian said innocently, "I'm just saying a few words objectively." ”

"I don't need to be objective right now. Zhou Mulan exhaled angrily, "I just want to teach Ronald's son a lesson for my father." ”

Liu Pian was speechless, the older generation was wrong, and the younger generation was not much better.

Paul didn't understand what the two were twitting, but no matter how stupid he was, he could see that Liu Pian and Zhou Mulan had a lot to do with each other.

"Liu, you're a great music producer, would you be interested in joining my crew?" Paul said bluntly, "I'm missing a good sound engineer and soundtrack for my new film. ”

Before Liu Pian could reply, Zhou Mulan quit. This digs into the corner of his wall in front of him, which is a naked slap in the face, and he doesn't give any face.

"Give up your stupid idea!" Zhou Mulan snorted coldly, "He's already joined my crew!"

"Your crew? haha. Paul laughed, "It's the funniest joke I've ever heard, what movie can you make?"

He looked back at Liu Pian, "Liu, Ariel is a third-rate director, and she doesn't have a movie that she can handle." Her films were never shown in cinemas at all, they were just children's toys. You're wasting your talent by joining her crew, come to my crew, trust me, it's going to be the wisest choice you've ever made!"

Ariel is Zhou Mulan's English name, full name: Ariel Zhou.

Paul stared straight at Liu Pian with a confident and haughty expression.

Of course, Liu Pian would not choose to join Paul, the two-faced thing is too much, not to mention the relationship with Zhou Mulan, just joining Paul's crew can only become a soundtrack, he can't accept it. He is still a producer on Zhou Mulan's side, and he is the same director as Zhou Mulan.

"I'm sorry, but Ariel and I are very good friends. Liu Pian stopped at the point and didn't explain much. A word of friend should have made Paul retreat.

Hearing this, Paul glanced at the two of them in surprise and nodded slightly, "It turned out to be a little game between friends." ”

Game?

Zhou Mulan gritted her teeth, and Liu Pian's face was a little unsightly.

Paul chuckled, "I'm looking forward to your work, and I hope you don't let me down." You'll be attending the festival too, and it would be a shame if you couldn't even be shortlisted, haha. ”

Zhou Mulan was angry, and Liu Pian said lightly, "Don't worry about you, I am full of confidence in our movie." ”

"Confidence is the recognition given to you by others, not the blind promise made by yourself. Paul shook his head.

"You're confident?"

"Of course, my works have been tested by the market, and the tens of millions of box office tickets given to me by the audience are the best recognition. ”

Tens?

If Liu Pian remembers correctly, "Eavesdropping" has been released so far, with a total box office of 850 million RMB, ranking among the top three in the summer file.

He shook his head and smiled, feeling a bit silly to argue about the box office. But this is a powerful evidence after all, and Liu Pian can't ignore it.

"We'll get the audience's credentials this time, too. Liu Pian said lightly.

"I'm waiting for that day!" Paul smiled slightly, squinted his eyes, and got up to leave.

......

"Can we really succeed?" Zhou Mulan looked at Liu Pian with anxiety.

"100 million box office base. Liu Pian said confidently, "If our deception plan is successful, at least we will have this box office." ”

Zhou Mulan was speechless, she still felt that a pseudo-documentary that didn't even have a big-name star couldn't get so much box office.

It's an exaggeration.

"We can give it a try. Liu Pian said confidently, "The investment is only 500,000 yuan, even if we count the publicity expenses to be invested in the deception plan, we can't spend much money, no more than 10 million at most." But the return is definitely more than 10 million, and 100 million is not my bragging. Rest assured, we will never lose. ”

"It's not a question of losing or not. Zhou Mulan's eyes fell on the middle of the hall, looked at Paul who was overshadowed by the stars, and said sourly, "If we don't have as much box office as Paul at that time, he will definitely laugh at me." ”

Liu Pian was dumbfounded, it turned out to be a matter of face.

But he is not absolutely sure of this kind of thing. He had faith in his films, but he had no idea about Paul's films and how much box office potential they had.

The box office of one or two hundred million is not much in the American film market, and it is not difficult for a great movie to break 500 million or 1 billion.

"Blair the Witch" has been hyped no matter how much it is hyped, and it will be two or three hundred million in the sky, and there is no way to do more. The quality of the movie itself limits its height, and it is opportunistic to take so much box office.

If Paul's film can get more than 300 million at the box office, it won't be comparable at all.

There is a big Hollywood director standing behind him, if Paul's movie didn't have his father's guidance, Liu Pian wouldn't believe it.

"Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven. Liu Pian smiled, "Let's pray that Paul's movie won't get 100 million at the box office, so we won." ”

Zhou Mulan nodded worriedly.

......

In the middle of the hall, Paul and a few young talents were talking and laughing.

"Paul, I heard that you invited that Chinese man, and you are very optimistic about him?" someone asked.

Paul shook his head, "It's just a well-known DJ, I invited him just to disgust Ariel, he doesn't have anything to value me." It's a movie-themed party, not music. My goal is a film festival, not an electro music festival!"

"Haha, he'll regret it. ”

Of course, his choice of Ariel was his biggest mistake. ”

"Paul, I heard your dad is going to help you make a movie? You're going to break your own box office record. ”

"Hmph, this time, my goal is 100 million!" Paul was confident, "If it weren't for the fact that the shooting budget limited my film, it could have gotten more!"

After all, he is still only a student, and there is still a long way to go, and his father will not invest too much money in making movies for him, and only gave him a total of ten million dollars!

10 million, there is no drama in making a commercial blockbuster, and there is no drama in inviting a big star, and it is more than enough to make a good small-production movie.

A box office of 100 million, the rate of return is also ten times.

Paul believes that he should be able to get so much box office.

"Ariel can only look at my back forever!" Paul laughed!
