Chapter 348: Good Luck

"Lover" was successfully completed in mid-October, and the next thing Yang Yang has to consider is the release of the movie.

Because of Olivia's connections and connections, the scheduling of "Lover" in the UK is very smooth, and many theaters have agreed to add the film to the film schedule in November.

Yang Yang sent "Lover" back to China for review, and sure enough, it did not pass because of the scale of the film, and it needed to be reviewed after the second editing.

However, in Xiangjiang, because the standards are relatively relaxed, the release schedule of "Lover" has also been negotiated with several theaters, and the majority of Xiangjiang fans still have great expectations for Yang Yang's new movie, especially when the film is promoted, a large number of large-scale shots of Yang Yang are exposed, and there are countless gimmicks.

However, Yang Yang's biggest target is Hollywood, and this movie was originally intended to test the Western film market, and the North American market is very important to him.

"Sir, do you need some more coffee?" asked the pretty assistant with a smile.

Yang Yang smiled politely and said, "No, thank you." ”

This was the third cup of coffee he had drunk, and nearly an hour and a half had passed since he entered the door.

"May I venture to ask, is Mr. Thomson's meeting over?"

Yang Yang couldn't help but ask.

The assistant lady looked at the handsome young man in front of her, sighed slightly in her heart, and showed a regretful expression on her face: "I'm sorry, Mr. Thomson's meeting is not over yet, and it may take a little time." ”

Yang Yang nodded, "Okay, then I'll continue to wait for him." ”

The assistant lady hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't recommend that you wait any longer, because Mr. Thomson's meeting may last quite a long time. Well, you know what I mean. ”

Yang Yang was stunned, smiled helplessly, and replied, "I understand, but I still choose to continue." If it does not bother you, I hope you will convey my sincerity to Mr. Thomson on my behalf. ”

The assistant lady nodded and looked at him with sympathetic eyes, "Good luck, then." ”

"Thank you. ”

How could Yang Yang not know that this so-called Mr. Thomson was not looking for a lame excuse to avoid himself.

In fact, he had come three times this week, except for the first time when he was politely rejected, and the second time he was simply rejected in person, and this time he couldn't even see people.

Yang Yang is for "Lover", his confident work.

Thomson is the CEO of Regal, the largest cinema chain in the United States, which has the largest theater and the largest number of screens in North America, with an industry covering 39 states and more than 200 theaters and 2,000 screens in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and other countries.

It can be said that if "Lover" can catch the ride of Regal Cinemas, it can get the opportunity to meet and get acquainted with the whole of Hollywood in the shortest and fastest time.

Unfortunately, tickets are not easy to buy.

Before coming to Regal Cinemas, Yang Yang also went to CRK Cinemas and ACM Cinemas, which ranked second and third in the United States, but they were also rejected.

ACM's front desk lady even secretly told him that the president had specifically instructed that if a young Asian man came to him with a movie, he would be invited to coffee until he couldn't hold his pee.

Yang Yang couldn't help but curse in his heart, these Yankees are all virtuous.

But there is no way, people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Now Yang Yang has a request for others, so he can only submit cover letters over and over again, just like unemployed college students looking for a job, and recommend himself from house to house.

Yang Yang can be described as infinitely beautiful in China, but when it comes to Hollywood, others don't recognize your face at all, and the audience doesn't know it.

There is only one Olivia in the whole movie of "Lover", which can be regarded as a bright point, but unfortunately the competitiveness is still too small.

It's Christmas soon, just like the Spring Festival in China, there are countless blockbusters in Hollywood during this time, and all the theaters can't schedule Hollywood superstars, who cares if you have a literary romance film from China?

Yang Yang also feels that his persuasiveness is too small, but at least you can watch the movie once before refusing.

Yang Yang stared at the empty coffee cup, thought for another ten minutes, looked up at the clock on the wall, there was still half an hour before they got off work, if they didn't see Thomson again, today's day would be in vain.

Finally, he made up his mind and dialed a number with the mentality of giving it a try.

The phone rang three times, and someone answered.

"Who?" was a calm, gentle old voice.

Yang Yang was unexpectedly a little nervous, and he didn't know how to speak.

"Well, hello, I'm Yang Yang. Yang Yang thought for a while and added at the end, "It was Lin Shuang who gave me this number." ”

"Oh, it's you. The other end of the line didn't seem to be surprised, but instead used a tactful end note like an old friend.

"What's the matter? ”

What should I say? Yang Yang suddenly regretted dialing this number, he didn't even know the name of the other party, and he didn't know what the relationship between the other party and Lin Shuang was, and what was his identity? Can he help him solve the problem at hand?

Everything is a question mark.

"Let's just say it, maybe I can help you a little?" That voice was very talkative, so friendly that Yang Yang was a little flattered.

So, let's just say it.

Yang Yang said in a deep voice: "I have a movie that I want to release in the North American market, but I have encountered a little problem in the middle. No theater is willing to accept my work.."

The other end of the phone quietly listened to Yang Yang finish speaking, and just when Yang Yang was waiting with apprehension and nervousness, the voice rang again.

"In this case, let me help you communicate, maybe there will be a turnaround. By the way, what theater is your movie going to be released in?"

β€œRegal。 ”

"Okay, I got it. His voice remained unhurried, "Is there anything else?"

"It's gone. Yang Yang replied quickly: "Thank you very much for your help, it's troublesome." ”

"It wasn't much trouble. The voice laughed and hung up the phone.

After Yang Yang finished the call, he sat on the sofa in a daze for a full five minutes, he felt that he might be crazy, for no reason to trouble a stranger he didn't know at all, and throw such a troublesome problem to others, and he didn't even know the name of the other party.

This is the rush to the doctor, Yang Yang smiled bitterly.

Yang Yang didn't have much hope for this phone call, he suddenly figured it out, and when the theater company got off work and couldn't see Thomson again, he chose to give up and make every effort to prepare for the promotion of other markets.

Hollywood, wait until next year.

At this time, the assistant lady came over again.

"Thanks, I don't really need coffee. Yang Yang said to her with a wry smile.

The assistant lady was stunned for a moment, and then a smile bloomed on her face: "It's not about coffee. ”

"Mr. Thomson said, his meeting is over, invite you, sir, to meet with him and bring your film. ”

Yang Yang blinked in disbelief and quickly got up: "Really? Great, I'll go now." ”

The assistant lady pursed her lips and smiled, her big beautiful eyes narrowed into two crescent moons: "I'm going to get off work soon, if you still want to drink coffee, you may need to do it yourself." ”

"Oh yes, and.." The assistant lady looked at Yang Yang and said, "Good luck, sir." ”
