Chapter 252: The Shawshank Redemption
Until she returned to the hotel again, Liu Ruoning was still in a trance, and she didn't understand why Xu Yang took a fancy to the girl named Joan Freeman, and after the two had eaten, she asked her doubts.
So, Xu Yang explained to her his views on Joan's abilities and the future development of Dream Entertainment.
Since God let himself meet such a talented director here, it would be a waste of genius not to bring her over!
In this world, there are many talented and capable people, but there are fewer and fewer Boles who can discover them and use their abilities to shine, and often, there will be a lot of people with great talents.
Although his plan was disrupted due to the appearance of such a person as Qiong, Xu Yang did not promise to Qiong in vain, he told Cao Han in China about it on the same day, and asked her to send Jiang Ying and someone with good English skills in the company to come, it will not take too long, half a month will be fine, and she can return to China when the matter here is dealt with.
After explaining to Cao Han, Xu Yang began to contact Qiong, asking her to quickly contact those intermediary companies to find a store suitable for opening a film and television company, and by the way, get the career photo, Xu Yang told her before that the branch here in Los Angeles will be temporarily handed over to Qiong as the general manager, and if there is a suitable candidate at the domestic headquarters, she will replace her and let her only be a director.
Although Joan is studying directing, she can still handle things like opening a company, as long as there is a specific process, so she can't take care of her graduation thesis, so she is busy with these things.
And Xu Yang himself began to conceive the first Hollywood movie that promised Joan.
Before coming to Los Angeles, Xu Yang's plan was to stay only for half a month, and besides, there were still many things to deal with in China, and he couldn't delay too long here, so he still played with Liu Ruoning in Los Angeles during the day, and used the hotel computer to start writing the script at night.
For the first movie, due to time constraints, Xu Yang chose a script that was written relatively quickly, that is, in the earth world, Wang Ziming's favorite movie "The Shawshank Redemption" was very touching and hopeful.
This movie, the main reason is that the scenes are relatively simple, most of the time, the scenes are in prison, the two main characters are Andy and Red, when I first started watching this drama, Wang Ziming saw it and rated it very highly, reaching an astonishing 9.7 points before paying attention, I never thought about it, it was out of control when I watched it, it was really a good film.
At first, Xu Yang was still worried that Joan was a woman and could control such a movie with almost all male characters, but after a little inquiry, Joan told him that as long as the script was fine, she could shoot strictly according to the meaning of him, the screenwriter and boss.
Xu Yang, who was relieved, wrote this movie well.
In fact, if you want to say anything, at the beginning, Xu Yang wanted to get the first movie in Hollywood should be the very classic "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" in the earth world, this kind of film can not only make his company a hit, but also earn enough box office, but when he met Joan, Xu Yang had a desire to examine the other party's ability, so the difficulty of filming the script rose to a higher level.
Speaking of which, the difficulty of filming "The Shawshank Redemption" is indeed much greater than that of "The Love of People and Ghosts", after all, first, it is not a simple thing to shoot in prison, and it is completely impossible without big connections and the help of the government, but after all, this is a United States, not a country, and the odds are still quite large.
Moreover, it is above the selection of actors, Andy must be Caucasian, Rhett must be black, and his age and acting skills must be enough, which requires the director's vision.
Whether he can pull this crew up, Xu Yang also wants to see Qiong's ability, not just have the level of a director, but without the director's appeal and the vision and ability of an optimistic actor, then Xu Yang should think carefully about whether to hand over the big responsibility to her.
Cao Han's speed is also very fast, in just 4 days, a team of five people including Jiang Ying was sent, it can be seen that whether it is getting a visa or arranging work, she, the general manager, is becoming more and more competent.
These people are also their own agent Jiang Ying, Xu Yang is the most familiar, so the matter will be explained to her, naturally, the day after they rest.
Jiang Ying's English level is even better than Xu Yang's, it is said that she has lived in the United States for nearly five years, and her local spoken language is very good, with a person like her, Xu Yang's burden can be lighter.
When Jiang Ying learned that Xu Yang had completed half of a Hollywood-like movie script, the joy in her heart was even more than Xu Yang's, after all, her long-standing wish was to follow a domestic artist, accompany him to the world, and become famous all over the world, in the past ten years, such a person did not appear, and until Xu Yang appeared, that glimmer of hope appeared again.
Not only that, the more she contacted Xu Yang, the more she firmly believed that he was the one who could realize her dreams, and now, stepping on the ground in the United States, she understood again that this wish may not be far from the moment of success, after all, there is such a good beginning, as long as Xu Yang, the helmsman, remains sober, success is inevitable.
has a dream, naturally, the motivation to do things is very sufficient, so Xu Yang introduced Joan to her, in addition to continuing to write the script, the rest of the things are left to the 6 of them.
In the blink of an eye, half a month is approaching, and Xu Yang's script has been written.
The Dream Entertainment Company distributed in Los Angeles has also been established, but there are only a few people here, and the next thing is the company's decoration, recruitment, and Joan took Xu Yang's script and began to research and form a crew.
In this company opened by Mi Guokai, Xu Yang was registered with 10 million US dollars, and the legal person used Jiang Ying's identity with a green card, Qiong is an employee, and she must not be registered with her identity, but Xu Yang himself does not have the conditions of a legal person, so he can only retreat.
After the matter was over, Xu Yang left with Liu Ruoning, and because this company was newly opened, there were still many things, so Jiang Ying stayed, and as for the few people who came from China, they indicated that they would leave after the new company recruited enough 30 people.
Now that they have decided, Xu Yang will not say more, listen to Jiang Ying's opinion, buy some local souvenirs and fashionable clothes and the like and step on the way back to China, this time, he did not go directly to his hometown in Guanzhong, but directly to Haishi.
As for the things he bought for his mother and sister, they arrived in Haishi and mailed them home, after all, he has been away for almost a month since Haishi left, and it is time to return to Haishi, where there are still many things waiting for him to preside over and pay attention to!
