Chapter 10 Life Goals
Mark was a little embarrassed, just catching someone to help with his homework, and he would have this misunderstanding.
Sophia saw him blushing and smiled: "You don't have to blush, it's normal, Donald has changed several girlfriends, and I want him to introduce you to one, which is obviously redundant." ”
Mark said, "I'll go first, good night!"
The next morning, Sophia asked Mark not to go to school, much to Donald's surprise, and Sophia said, "Mark has his talents and talents, and he doesn't necessarily need a certificate to prove himself." ”
Sophia made a decision, and David didn't say anything, knowing that Sophia was extremely smart, good at calculating, and rarely made mistakes.
Sophia and Mark drove to the Hilton Hotel Cafe in the city center for breakfast, Mark changed into a suit according to Sophia's instructions, looking handsome and chic, mighty, Sophia also teased him: "David is always worried that you will starve to death, in fact, with your appearance, you can be a male model, how handsome it is to wear a suit." “
Mark, on the other hand, was very unaccustomed to the suit, and he kept moving his tie, which he found uncomfortable, and he convinced: "I'm a little nervous, Peter Wilson is the chairman of a public company." ”
Sophia said, "Don't worry, he's my friend!" After a leisurely breakfast, she drank coffee comfortably, elegantly and calmly.
Mark said, "I'm sorry you can't go to work because of me. ”
Sophia said: "I'm just going to work now, who said you have to line up to clock in and stay in the office? I'm in charge of investment loan review in the bank, and I often have to meet with customers or do some research. ”
While they were talking, a tall man in a hooked nose suit came over, he greeted him with a smile, and kissed Sophia's hand, looking warm and affectionate, and Sophia introduced him: "Mark, my adopted son." ”
Peter didn't put on a stand as the boss of a listed company, hugged and shook hands warmly, said some polite and polite words, and did not look down on Mark because he was a hairy boy.
Then they were talking about some work matters, and Peter seemed quite happy, because it was Sophia who informed him that their group's loan request had been approved, which made him happy, and Sophia did not mention it: "Mark has written a book called Twilight, and I would like to ask a professional to check it for him and run the publication." ”
Peter said: "Wow, the young man is so talented, I thought you were an athlete, who knows that you are still an elite of both civil and military affairs, I am very glad that you thought of us for the first time, and we will not disappoint you." ”
Mark knew the tremendous energy of Twilight, but it didn't hurt to apologize, saying, "You're not afraid I'm writing a bullshit book?"
Peter said: "Sophia is a person who has a clear distinction between public and private, and she will never recommend it if she is not a good thing, but she is like Oprah, she is not recommended if she is not a boutique, and I envy David very much." ”
Sophia laughed, "Mary won't be happy when she hears that. She handed Peter a USB stick and said, "Please, my friend." ”
"You can rest assured that we have the most professional team and will make your work work, and I will let the best editors take care of it," Peter said. Peter said a few polite words and took his leave.
Mark couldn't believe it and said, "It's that simple?"
Sophia said, "How hard do you think it is? ”
Mark had no choice but to smile and compliment, and said, "Sophie, your connections are very large, and everyone sells you face." ”
Sophia said: "It's the face of my mother's Ronaldson family, or the face of Citibank, I will have a few important meetings in a while, and you can go back to class by yourself." ”
Mark said, "Ok, thank you, Sophie! I'll go first." Mark knew that Sophia was a noble person, so he didn't bother her, Mark came to the door of the Hilton Hotel after saying goodbye, and saw a large number of reporters carrying long guns and short cannons interviewing a pair of sissy brothers, Mark didn't recognize this pair of girly people, but he recognized a few familiar faces standing beside them, the most dazzling of which was recently reloaded for "The Matrix 2" And the popular superstar Keanu Levi, as well as Emma Thomas (Trinity's actor), Hugo Weaving, a group of stars, like stars and moons, surrounded this pair of sissy brothers, they were answering reporters' questions in high spirits, and countless fans were cheering and screaming next to them.
Mark looked very envious, looking at the pair of sissies who talked eloquently, everyone was respectful to them, love with respect, Mark saw this pair of sissy faces after answering a few questions from reporters in the bodyguards and walked away, when getting into the car, Keanu Levi actually bent down to open the door of the Lincoln car for them, very respectful, this face, this style, Mark was leisurely fascinated, and said loudly: "This is the example I should learn." ”
As soon as Mark inquired, he learned that this sissy brother was the Wachowski brothers, who became famous with "The Matrix".
The Wachowski brothers are the name of the famous brother directors Andy Wachowski and Larry Wachowski, because the directors, screenwriters and producers of their films are often done by the two of them, and their co-director "The Matrix" has become a classic of science fiction movies.
Their experience is quite legendary, and they are half-way monks.
Before entering the film industry, the Wachowski brothers worked for Reisley, a subsidiary of Muffle Comics, doing carpentry, drawing comics, and making their way into Hollywood.
The $98 million in the first week of "The Matrix 2" was the best opening result for a B-grade film, which made Warner take the brothers to the sky, and now it has been three weeks since its release, and they are celebrating the box office success of more than 170 million dollars in North America.
If it weren't for David forcing him to study the sixth grade curriculum, he would not have thought of plagiarizing "Twilight", and now he sees the scenery and style of the Wachowski brothers, and he immediately seems to have a direction in life, and suddenly has a goal to strive for, and knows what he should do.
James Cameron was a truck driver before he became the king of the world, Ruffian Quint was a video tape seller, and the Wachowski brothers were carpenters and cartoonists, and in the 2017 version of Mark, film directing was a job with a lower threshold than driving a driver.
The driver also has to take the license test, you can do this movie if you have money, Guo Xiaosi and the third uncle who make a living by mixing singularity code words, and Wang Mouqiang, who moves bricks at the gate of Nortel, are all rushing into this circle in a swarm, and I, Mark, have such good conditions, and have the blessing of the golden finger, why can't I do it? Mr. Zhou Xingxing has successfully changed from an actor to a director and a producer, and the sentence "What is the difference between a person and a salted fish if he doesn't have ideals?" is a wise saying.
Mark is a relatively simple-minded person, this kind of person is a tendon, just do what he says, they don't think too much about the concerns and stakes, they just do what they want.
Mark has synthesized and analyzed the success of many predecessors and combined with his own situation to make his own plan, you are a newcomer who has nothing, there is no film company to pay you to make a movie, each movie has a production cost of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars, no one will be child's play, no one will be rash, no one is willing to invest in your film before you have work experience and fame.
Therefore, the top priority is to be famous, to make people think that you have the strength and ability, and that you are worth investing in, which is difficult for others, but is this difficult thing for Mark who has the function of the future network on the Internet?"
Why the Wachowski brothers, who were carpentry cartoonists, are highly praised by Warner, is not because they are sissy, but because they make blockbuster movies, and now Mark, no one wants to invest in him, and he can't make movies, but it is more accurate to write a few high-quality dramas that are better copied out of a few blockbuster dramas, which is not a difficult task.
Mark went online and quickly locked on three dramas, one is "This Man is from Earth", the second is "Wedding Proud", and the third is "Chainsaw".
In the seven giant companies in Hollywood, they all attract people's attention with super blockbusters and pull up the scene, which is a symbol of identity and grade, it can be said that there is no blockbuster, no one will be the same thing as you, but if the true love of the film company is still a movie with a small cost and a big return, for them, a movie with a small cost and a big return is an unavoidable stunner, Mark has a few in his hands, and he is not afraid that these greedy vampires will not take the bait.
These three film dramas, plus the "Twilight" series, will have a place in Hollywood, and the ticket number is huge.
Mark slipped back to school and decided to copy the drama of these three works immediately, and chose "This Man is from Earth" because this is a miracle-creating small success movie, which is said to be about 20,000 US dollars in production costs, IMBD has a comprehensive score of 8.4 points, which is a posture that goes hand in hand with a blockbuster, and is most suitable for his kind of three-no personnel practice, as long as the work is famous and famous, the job will come to the door.
Mark went back to school, he had some questions he wanted to ask Blake, I heard that she was born in an acting family, her parents were actors, her father had worked as a director and made movies, he saw Blake and another blonde girl sitting on the swing by the woods, and walked over quietly, he wanted to scare these two people, who knew that the blonde girl said: "Blake, are you dating that guy from King Mark?"
Curious, Mark stopped and went behind a tree to eavesdrop.
