Chapter 146: Return to Austin!
There were only Liu Jing and Shaogong in the living room, looking at the packed luggage, Liu Jing looked at Shaogong who was standing in front of the window and looking at the traffic below, there were some doubts in his eyes, and the expression on his face seemed to want to know something, but he was a little embarrassed to ask.
At this time, Shao Gong didn't reply: "After going to Thailand and India this time, I will go directly back to Austin to arrange the next shooting plan of the Menghang Magnesium Country Branch, and by the way, I will talk to someone about cooperation, if this cooperation is negotiated, even if the Magnesium Country Branch does not have my script, there will be no shortage of excellent movies to make for at least ten years." It's okay for my sister to stay in China for the New Year, and the Spring Festival Gala and the program have been arranged for you. After the New Year, I will arrange a shooting plan for you, and when you receive a call from the United States, you can go over, and in addition, when you pay homage to the master during the New Year, I will kowtow to the master for me, and my disciple is busy talking. As he spoke, he turned around and saw that Liu Jing's face was full of doubts, and couldn't help asking, "Senior sister seems to have something to ask?"
"Hmm. ”
Liu Jing nodded: "Senior brother, that Yang Qianqian, why do you call her Miss Rose! And as soon as you call her Miss Rose, she will leave immediately." Besides, are we really being targeted by the above?"
"There are several powerful killer groups in the world today. Among them, the Red Moon is undoubtedly the most mysterious and powerful, followed by the Berserker Group and the Blade Group, which are responsible for 80 percent of the world's assassination missions, and the remaining 20 percent, which is said to be taken over by a group from Huaxia. And Yang Qianqian is the eldest lady of the Blade Family, one of the four major killer groups in the world today, and you also know that my head bounty is 100 million US dollars, so I have secretly fought with the Blade Family several times, and during this period, I have also bought some killers sent by Blade to collect intelligence for me. So I know Yang Qianqian's photos and some information. Her real name is 'Ye Jingjing', nicknamed 'Night Rose', her pseudonym in Hong Kong is Yang Qianqian, and her profession is a model. So as soon as I said Miss Rose, she knew that I already knew some of her secrets, and she walked away. ”
Shao Gong smiled indifferently: "As for what I said to Brother Yong, it may be true or false, anyway, I exaggerated the rhetoric." Seeing that the senior sister's eyes widened and widened, she continued to explain with an expression of what you want to do: "You also know that Brother Ke and Brother Yong used to be on the road!"
"Hmm. ”
Liu Jing nodded and said, "I know some, but it's not very detailed." ”
"Their identity was disgraceful before, and under the protection of Menghang, they turned from black to white, but this does not mean that the country does not know them, and now Menghang's wealth is big and famous, as a high-level they must be arrogant, and it is inevitable that they will have some scruples when doing so. So I have to find a reason to give them some warnings, so that they know that as Bai Dao, they must do things according to the rules of Bai Dao, if they use the means of Hey Dao to earn Bai Dao's money, sooner or later something will happen, and then it will inevitably bring huge trouble to Menghang. We have to use their reputation, but we must not use their previous means to make money, Menghang can have today's momentum is carefully polished by my sweat and hard work, and they must not be allowed to cause trouble to the company. Although Brother Ke and Brother Yong know more, we know that they will do things lightly. But Brother Cheng has joined recently, and my words are actually for him, so I used it to suppress their recklessness, and let him know that when he joins Menghang, he has to say goodbye to the past. After speaking, Shao Gong smiled: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"
"That Yang, oh, Miss Rose looks very persevering, senior brother, you have to be careful!"
"Don't worry, you know a little bit about my skills, and she can't pose any threat to me. ”
Shao Gong asked: "By the way, has the magnesium country work visa for Ximen Yan been issued?" ”
"It's been handed over to her, just like us for two years, but after two years, whether to continue to apply for a visa or apply for a green card depends on what she wants. ”
"Okay, let's go back to China after we leave! After two years of hard work, you should spend more time with your family, so I'll leave it to Lao Cheng here." ”
After that, Shao Gong pulled up his suitcase and went out of the door, then knocked on the door of Li Yong and Ximen Yan, and the three of them took the suitcase to the airport in a car.
Watching the three of them leave, Liu actually said goodbye to Cheng Dachang, and then returned to China with his suitcase.
On the Thai side, the script given by Shao Gong is "Boxer" 1 and 2, which is a completely localized movie. Since he wants to make a Thai movie, and he wants to co-produce it for the purpose of cultural exchanges between the two countries, he can't help but show the quintessence of Thailand in the movie, Muay Thai, and to show Muay Thai, "Boxing" is undoubtedly the most suitable movie, as for the actor and assistant director, he also gave the most suitable candidate, and after finding the actor and assistant director, he seized all the time to explain the script to the actor, and then told the assistant director about the shooting effect he wanted, and if the other party encountered shooting problems, he could communicate with him by video.
So after Shaogong stayed in Thailand for three days, he went to India, and there were still two scripts on the Indian side, namely "Phantom Car God" and "Indian Superman".
"Phantom Car God" is good to say, it is completely a cat-and-mouse drama between the police and criminal gangs on the road, but this "Indian Superman" is different, because its idea is to create a hero exclusive to India, Printed Superman. Although India has also made some movies that combine science fiction and heroes, the results are not ideal.
If this is the slightest careless, it is the rhythm of the box office plummet.
Shao Gong smiled after hearing this: "Since it is a co-production, it is necessary to break the traditional concept and combine it with the world market, and it is impossible to get out of the strange circle of localization if you are complacent, "Indian Superman" is just a test of the water, paving the way for future large-scale co-productions, I believe that even if "Indian Superman" does not make much money, the bottom line will never lose money, believe me." ”
With the guarantee that Shaogong would not lose money, the Indian side eliminated all concerns and started follow-up work.
"Phantom Car God" is good to say, finding a good role can be carried by the assistant director to start filming, but "Indian Superman" requires the protagonist to be fit, because in order to get closer to the powerful physique of Indian Superman, the male protagonist Hrinik Roshan, must spend two months gaining 15 pounds of muscle, which can make his body look very powerful.
So five days later, Shao Gong and his party left India and boarded a plane to Austin.
When they got off the plane, it was just evening, and the company staff was off work.
The three of them were picked up by a special car sent by Kevin Wright to take them back to the villa, and Li Yong went back to his villa as well, because Li Yong had called his girlfriend 'Zhao Xixi' in advance, his girlfriend knew that he was back today, and she also came to their villa early as a guest. Liu couldn't come back for the time being, so her villa was temporarily occupied by Ximen Yan.
In the brightly lit villa, it was as splendid and majestic as it had been a few months ago.
The living room was cleaned spotlessly, Perona was indispensable, the old housekeeper Green was pouring black tea for Li Yong and his girlfriend who had finished cleaning up, the aroma was wafting in the kitchen, Rose was preparing a big meal with Perona's help, they knew that their master was not happy without meat, obviously tonight's main course roast suckling pig and seafood dinner definitely met his appetite.
At this time, Ximen Yan also came to the main villa after packing her luggage, but she was followed by two people, who turned out to be Liu Yifei's mother and daughter!
God knows how these two women could appear here, Shao Gong looked at Ximen Yan in a bit of a daze, and the other party shook his head helplessly: "They were there when I went back to the villa, and I was also shocked! Didn't you say that Liu Jing lived alone? How could there be two more people, or a pair of celebrity mother and daughter?"
"Green??"
"Master, they arrived a week ago, saying they came to find Miss Liu. They had been here before, and they were friends of Miss Liu and yours, so I couldn't refuse them to come in, so I arranged for Miss Liu to live in her villa temporarily. ”
Green was a little surprised and said, "Master, didn't Miss Liu report this matter to you?" After Li Yong heard this, he immediately called Liu Jing, obviously Liu Jing didn't expect that Liu Yifei's mother and daughter would be in Austin, still in their villa. But considering that Liu Yifei asked for her brother's mobile phone number and didn't have the courage to call her brother to confess, she went to Austin to cultivate a relationship with her brother under the pretext of coming to play with her.
Therefore, in order to show affection to Liu Yifei's mother and daughter, Liu Jing only replied that he knew about it when he was in Hong Kong, and said that he would return to Austin with his senior brother during the Chinese New Year, and that his senior brother was still in Hong Kong at that time! As a result, he did not follow the team from Hong Kong, but returned to China, but he didn't expect them to go to find him.
"I don't blame you for this, you don't know that I will let you temporarily return to China to participate in the Spring Festival Gala and accompany your family for the New Year, let alone them. ”
Shao Gong sighed, looked at Liu Yifei's mother and daughter, and said, "I'm sorry two, I was rude just now." ”
"Why, do you need to be so wary of us as a guest here?"
Although Liu actually lied to her and Liu Yifei was not too embarrassed, Shao Gong's defense of herself made her very unhappy, and when she saw herself, she called to ask, what about you to prevent thieves?
"I'm sorry, I was a little nervous by the scandal, and I almost forgot that this is the United States, not China. The main reason is that I don't know that the two of you are here! I didn't make an appointment, which scared me like a sudden airborne, and I apologize again for the rude just now. As an excuse for my apologies, please have a meal and apologize. ”
Shao Gong looked embarrassed and invited the two to take a seat.
"Hehe, you're still afraid. ”
Liu Yifei looked at this face for a long time, and said angrily.
"I'm a scandal now, and a photo of someone P in China can cause a heated discussion on the Internet, but it's not safe here, if someone photographs me going to the street with a girl, I'm going to make headlines on the entertainment page again. ”
Shao Gong breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "Obviously I didn't do anything, but I was hacked like that, obviously I was working, but I was said to be in love, you said that I was not wronged, so I asked myself to be more clean and self-conscious, so I was a little nervous about you who suddenly appeared." ”
At this time, dinner was ready, and with the dishes on the table, Ximen Yan didn't like to eat, so she took a cup of ice cream and took a small spoon to dig and eat, her beautiful face with elegant movements and the cold temperament on her body, it suddenly became a landscape, Liu Yifei glanced at her enviously, looked at the table again, and helplessly took the salad, stared at the boss with his eyes and looked at Shao Gong and said: "Why is the main dish all meat, you usually eat this?"
"yes, I'm a carnivore, and I don't like meat. ”
Shao Gong watched Liu Yifei eat the salad silently, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, while Zhao Xixi and Liu Xiaoli ate cake.
Li Yong is also a person who practices martial arts, and he usually trains very hard, not to mention Shaogong, so the meat on the table is the happiest among the people he and Li Yong eat, this is Liu is not here, there is one less carnivore, otherwise the three of them can still grab it.
Seeing that the two of them were full of oil in their mouths, and the corners of their mouths were all on it, Liu Yifei shook her head helplessly: "This food looks really ungraceful." ”
"Eating is worth a few dollars!"
Li Yong and Shao Gong said in unison: "In the face of delicious food, a hearty meal is the greatest respect for food." After speaking, he didn't care about the strange looks of the others, and continued to struggle to eat and drink. Although Li Yong is a little silly, he behaves very personable on weekdays, but today's appearance made Zhao Xixi see another extraordinarily cute Li Yong.
So the love in the girl's eyes was even stronger.
