Chapter 138: It Takes So Fast
The promotional film of "Enter the Dragon" has been planned for a long time, after all, it has won international awards, and it is a small number of co-productions between the United States and Hong Kong, how can it attract the attention of the audience without effective publicity?
Walter doesn't know if Warner Bros. has vigorously promoted the release of "Enter the Dragon" in the original time and space, and I think that even if it is publicized, Warner's attention should not be too great. After all, the production cost of this film is less than one million dollars, and the starring role is a yellow-skinned Asian-American, even if this person is Bruce Lee and has a group of loyal martial arts fans in the United States, it is still unlikely that it will be a box office hit.
Therefore, if he wants the film to achieve better results than the original time and space, he naturally has to pay more attention to publicity, which is why Robert and Mike told them to contact the TV station to broadcast the trailer advertisement when they left Berlin. Of course, it's not just a TV commercial, but also in the newspapers that Disney can contact and agree to, and their entertainment sections are all vying to report on the West Berlin International Film Festival, among them, they will intentionally or unintentionally expose more information about "Enter the Dragon" to attract readers' attention.
It's just that movie trailers are obviously not popular, and most TV stations are now not interested in yellow-dominated movie advertising for various reasons during the Cold War, only NBC reluctantly agreed to Disney's request because of the human interests of "American Painting" between him and Walter and Mike, but it also gave restrictions.
But this is not bad, for Walter, at least it is better than no TV station willing to take over, unless in the future, he has the opportunity to buy the TV station, and he can broadcast whichever advertisement he wants, otherwise he can only endure it now. This is the same for any Hollywood company, after all, in terms of supply and demand, the dominance of things lies with others, and it is difficult for Disney to grasp the dominance as a passive party.
After the copyright of the novel was negotiated, it stands to reason that he should pack his bags and return to the United States with Natasha. It's just that after accidentally spraying Isabel Yasmin Adjani, Walter subconsciously canceled the trip.
Of course, when he returned to Natasha's room and greeted her, in the face of Natasha's question about the return date of Natasha, who wanted to go to the United States, Walter very honestly prevaricated with the excuse that the negotiations had only completed the preliminary matters and needed to wait for the follow-up progress.
After hearing this, the girl nodded without the slightest hesitation to say that she could wait, just when Walter was curious about the girl being so obedient, the other party suddenly stretched out his hand and said to Walter in a very normal tone: "My money is spent, the clothes in Paris are too expensive, I haven't bought a few more, I feel that you need to give me a little more cash!"
When Natasha said this, she spoke quickly in English, obviously she had been preparing this wording for a long time, and the reason why she was no longer in a hurry to go to the United States, looking at it like this, obviously because of the abundance of funds, she temporarily sank into the bustling world of Paris, after all, there are so many world-famous luxury goods and clothes here.
"What, so fast?" said Walter, surprised, and in his impression that he was not giving much money, but it was definitely not a small amount. Because of the lack of francs exchanged, Walter simply gave her the worldwide dollars, and the few thousand dollars she gave her in Paris would definitely be enough for her to buy clothes if she was just to squander, unless she was not just buying clothes.
"Hmm...... I bought a few more limited edition dresses, and it won't be enough......" The girl spoke in a low voice, and after finishing speaking, Walter rarely saw Natasha's face showing a touch of ruddy, thinking that she definitely bought more than just a skirt, women, whether they are young or old, love beauty.
"Okay, wait!"
After that, Walter returned to his room, walked to the safe prepared by the hotel, and took out an ordinary travel bag from the safe. The bag was a bit heavy, and when I opened it, I saw that there were several bundled rolls of dollar cash inside.
This is the cash he exchanged in Germany in advance with the cheque given to him by Schubert, and for the sake of safety, Walter did not deliberately let Schubert deposit the money into his account abroad, but asked the other party to use a third-party account in Germany to write a check for himself for $80,000, and before leaving Germany, Walter took out the cash in it, and by the way, also exchanged some francs as a cost along the way.
In fact, Walter wanted to give his credit card directly to the girl just now, but in the end he dismissed this choice, as for the reason, it is not that he doesn't trust Natasha, but he is completely worried that this girl who just has a "huge amount of money" for her, can't control it, and directly maxes out her credit card. After all, it is very terrible for women to buy things, as evidenced by the double eleven and double twelve of later generations.
After counting two thousand dollars from his bag and putting it in his pocket, Walter put the bag back in the safe, locked the safe, and made sure that there was nothing unusual before going out and knocking on the door of Natasha's room again.
Giving the two thousand dollars to Natasha, Walter told him a little jokingly: "We're going to the United States soon, I don't want to have a bunch of salutes waiting for us to carry them, it's very tiring!"
Walter's subtext is not to buy too many things, but from his words, there is more playfulness, which does not disgust Natasha, but is a little ashamed.
Natasha's face turned even redder and said, "Okay! Okay! I understand, but thank you so much, you're so nice!" However, perhaps too excited, Natasha hugged Walter excitedly, and then kissed Walter heavily on the left cheek, and then "Ah" as if she found her excitement and impulsiveness, and quickly closed the door.
And Walter was also caught off guard by Natasha's sudden move, and was stunned for a long time at the closed door. It wasn't until he touched his left cheek with his finger to confirm that there was really a lipstick mark on his face that he smiled a little self-deprecatingly.
It seems that this is also very good...... However, did I think about something wrong, I used to just treat the other party as a girl, but today's other party's actions are obviously an undeveloped mature woman...... Looks like I have to do something......
Turning around, Walter finished his thoughts, took one last look at Natasha's room, and returned to his room.
