Chapter 63: Expected [Collect!

George Lucas is a resolute person, although it is said that a resolute person may not necessarily succeed, but the probability of success is always better than at home to either eat or sleep only meat and not brain rice worms.

He contacted the crew members of the B-grade film "Golden Warrior" and Mando North America, the production and distribution company of "Metroid".

Because the film crew of "Golden Warrior" is not a mainstream film crew, the people in the film crew are basically not mixed with Hollywood. Therefore, although Lucas contacted the film crew first, the first person who had the opportunity to meet was the North American people who were also in California.

After several months of operation, Wanhu North America has gradually got on the right track. Because Takahashi proposed two mission objectives. Wanhu North America is no longer a sales division, but has gradually transformed into a comprehensive division that outputs content, produces games, and marketing.

Such a comprehensive department has high requirements for managers, and the requirements for even an ordinary employee are not low.

Even the telephone operator has to change from the original almost simple ornament to the all-rounder who is now almost "knowing the entertainment industry and the game circle".

Of course, the increase in the level of personnel is accompanied by a rapid increase in wages.

Fortunately, California is a region with a strong technological atmosphere, although it cannot be said that even an aunt and uncle who sweeps the floor can casually glance at it and point out programming errors.

The sweeping monk is just a legend, and if a truly capable person is just sweeping the floor, it is a waste of talent.

There can't be a grain of rice left in the dinner bowl, otherwise it will be called waste.

And isn't it a greater waste for a person not to shine where he is needed?

The operator who is familiar with the entertainment industry and the game circle, the salary is definitely the highest in North America, and when the operator receives a call from George Lucas, he does not treat the other party as a liar, and hangs up the phone.

In fact, the job requirement of 10,000 North American operators is to record it accurately, no matter what kind of information it is. Decisions are left to the people above

When it was learned that Lucas, who claimed to be the big boss of Lucasfilm, wanted to talk to the general manager of Wanhu North America, the phone call was directed to Nick's office.

When Nick received the call, although his tone was calm, there was a slight fluctuation in his heart.

The movie "Star Wars" has incomparable significance in the history of American cinema.

If you really want to talk about the genre of this movie, it is not so much a space opera or a space epic, but a space martial arts film.

There are many things in this movie, but the most intriguing part is the scene where two samurai crack and duel with lightsabers.

When Nick was young, he was a fan of this movie. Collected a lot of stuff about Star Wars.

However, although the movie is shown on the big screen, it is only a movie after all, and the broadcast time is limited.

Even if you spend money to rent a video and watch it over and over again, and memorize every line, it's still just that amount of information.

As I grew older, the idea of galloping through the stars to punish evil and promote good gradually began to fade. As a person in society, Nick also began to obey the rules of this society and began to live a real life.

Just after he had gradually begun to get used to continuing to move forward in real work and life, he suddenly found that the great director who created his dream for himself when he was young actually contacted him.

However, Nick's current identity is the head of Wanhu's North American branch, and his relationship with Lucas is a business relationship, rather than a fan-to-idol relationship. Nick, who has been through a lot and has grown in heart, already knows how to deal with such a situation.

"Hello, I'm George Lucas. I'm very interested in your company's Metroidvania, do you have time to meet below? ”

Lucas also speaks very decently, making a commercial film is not so much about making a movie as it is about dealing with countless people.

Although Lucas usually doesn't care much about these, if the actors and field affairs make him unhappy, he will directly scold him. But his attitude towards potential collaborators is quite sincere.

"Hello, my name is Nick Claydon, and I'm the head of Wanhu North America. Thank you very much for your attention to our Metroid and welcome you to meet and negotiate at any time. Nick said.

Don't think that Americans are really upright and don't know how to speak official clichés.

As a part of human socialization, Mandarin clichés are an inevitable product. Although it is possible that some races have higher skill points and some races have lower skill points, there is no situation where they will not be able to point this skill point.

As a country that has been founded for more than 100 years, interpersonal communication has become complicated to a certain extent. To say that such a country would not exist in almost all places where human activity would exist would be to completely deify the United States.

"Okay, I'll go right away. Lucas was unimpressed by Nick's official tone of voice. It's good to be willing to communicate. It's like a husband and wife, quarreling and arguing beyond the sky, at least it means that they care about each other. If you don't say a word, you are calm and terrible, and you have refused to communicate, it means that you have reached a dead end.

Dropping the phone, Nick looked at his watch. Lucas agreed with him an hour later. Calling the secretary in and adjusting the time of the afternoon meeting, Nick began to work on the papers while he began to wait for Lucas.

It can't be said that Lucas is a low-key person, why should he be low-key with the money he earns from his ability.

Lucas rushed to the headquarters of Wanhu in a hurry, went up to the top floor of the office building that had been rented by Wanhu North America, and entered Nick's office in a hurry. The two sat face to face, and Lucas got straight to the point, "I want the rights to your company's Metroid to adapt this game into a movie and bring it to the big screen." At the same time, I also wanted to meet the creators of the game and hear their opinions. ”

Although Nick had some expectations in his heart, he also had a strange feeling in his heart when he heard Lucas say in such a confident voice that he wanted to adapt "Metroid".

After sorting out his messy thoughts a little, Nick opened his mouth and said, "Wanhu welcomes all kinds of adaptation intentions, this game is the main creator of the president of my company, if Mr. Lucas is willing to wait, I can call the headquarters right now to ask." ”
