Chapter 16: Hunter's Brainstorming
I slept comfortably, and when Tang Feng woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
He hurriedly washed up and came to the living room, the family was sitting around the sofa chatting, William saw Tang Feng walking in and beckoned him to sit down, "Sean, come here, we're talking about you." ”
After sleeping for so long, Tang Feng was also a little hungry, picked up an apple and took a hard bite before sitting down and asked, "What are you talking about me?"
Angela pouted and said, "Brother, Charlie said bad things about you." ”
"Oh, I'm going to have to listen to something bad about me. ”
Angela puffed up and said, "Charlie said that you are not the same as before, and now you can do anything like Dr. Magnum." He also said that you must have been brainwashed by aliens just like in the comics. ”
"Poof!"
Tang Feng almost didn't squirt out all the apple crushed in his mouth, he was not brainwashed by aliens, but completely became a different person! Now he may come from the future world, maybe it is another parallel time and space, in short, the person is still the same person, but the soul has become his own.
In order to hide his embarrassment, Tang Feng took advantage of the topic and said: "Haha, he is right, brother, I am Dr. Almighty!"
Angela was dissatisfied with this answer, pouting and saying, "Please, man." Stop coaxing me like a child, I've grown up. ”
Tang Feng rubbed her little head dotingly, and said with a smile: "Yes, our little Angela has grown up, and she is really getting more and more beautiful." ”
Angela: "Cut, still treat me like a child and ignore you." Aunt Mary, aren't you going to teach me how to make chocolate cake, how about we do it now?"
Mary looked at her lovingly and smiled softly, "Okay, let's make the best chocolate cake and treat our almighty director." Oh yes, and two excellent photographers. ”
Seeing their intimate appearance, Tang Feng's heart was also very happy, he was worried that Angela would have some psychological obstacles. Now it seems that there is no need to worry, Mary simply likes her, and she enjoys it.
The women went into the kitchen, and there were only three men left in the living room.
Charlie is still like a little boy, shy about talking about Tang Feng behind his back, as if he wants to explain something, but he is embarrassed to speak, and he looks like he is twisting and pinching.
William said to Tang Feng, "Sean, thank you last night." ”
Tang Feng was a little confused, "Thank me for what?"
William looked at Charlie, who was still awkward, shook his head helplessly, and then said to Tang Feng: "Thank you for giving Charlie a chance, I think it will be very important for him." ”
Without waiting for Tang Feng to answer, William continued: "You see that he is eighteen years old, but most of the time he still acts like a child. But you have really matured after experiencing pain, and I am really relieved to have you with him in the future. ”
Charlie suddenly retorted with a flushed face, "Who said I didn't grow up?" The shots I took are no worse than yours, don't believe it, let's compare when the copy is washed out." ”
Tang Feng waved his hand and said seriously: "Uncle William, if it weren't for your take-in, I wouldn't know where to go, how happy do you think Angela is now?"
"You were the ones who gave me and poor Angela a home, a home full of love and warmth, so I should be thanking you. ”
Then he patted Charlie again and said to William: "Charlie is my best friend, according to us Chinese, he is my brother! I want to make a movie, of course he has to help me, otherwise I can't do it alone." ”
got his affirmation, Charlie was also very happy, and proudly grimaced at William, "Look, Sean has said that I have to help him." ”
"Jingle Bell ......"
As he was talking, the phone rang, and Charlie got up to answer the phone, "Hey, this is William's house, who are you?"
"Oh, it's Uncle Hunter, are you looking for Sean? Okay, I'll call him that. ”
Putting down the phone, Charlie turned his head and said, "Sean, it's looking for your call, Hunter called." ”
Tang Feng didn't know what Hunter was looking for him, so he hurriedly came to the phone, picked up the phone and asked, "Hunter, is there anything to find me now?"
On the other end of the phone, Hunter sat comfortably in the boss's chair and said with a smug face: "Sean, can you come to the police station?"
"I came up with a great idea related to the movie you made, and I thought it would help you. ”
Tang Feng replied, "Okay, in an hour, I'll go to your office to find you." ”
Hunter is in a very good mood now, although he hasn't slept all night, he can't see a trace of fatigue, but looks energetic.
After the shooting, he gave everyone a half-day off, which was normal, as a director, no matter what he did last night, he still had to insist when he should go to work, but he couldn't let the police officers go to duty without resting.
Unexpectedly, when the police officers came to work in the afternoon, their attitudes were very different from before, not only did they work more attentively, but also became more cordial after seeing him, even Galen, who had always given him a headache, was as well-behaved as a kitten.
Not only the police officers who participated in the filming last night, but even those who did not sign up have become attentive. After some understanding, he learned that someone blew out last night's scene during the lunch break, which was simply a picture of color, as exaggerated as possible, and now everyone wants to participate in the filming of the movie.
This made Hunter very proud, because he was relatively young and did not have such deep qualifications, so don't look at his official position, but they don't respect him very much.
Although he couldn't figure out why such a change would occur just after filming a scene, he knew that it was all brought to him by Tang Feng.
"It seems that this kid is right, this so-called outward bound training is really effective, at least it has brought me closer to the police officers. ”
Hunter is not just a simple-minded and reckless man, on the contrary, he is also very smart, otherwise he would not have become the director of the bureau at such a young age, and he soon thought, "If this is the case, wouldn't the police-public interaction he said also have a good effect?"
"If I can solve this problem, I'm afraid it won't be long before I can change my chair. ”
In this way, our director locked himself in his office and started an unprecedented brainstorming session, and really came up with a few good ideas, so he couldn't wait to call Tang Feng and wanted to discuss with him.
An hour is not a long time, but Hunter seems to have waited for a long time, and as soon as he saw Tang Feng, he couldn't wait to say his thoughts: "I want to really engage in a police-public interaction like you said, and take your movie as an opportunity, what do you think?"
Although Tang Feng didn't understand his intentions yet, he felt that this matter was definitely a good thing for him, so he asked, "So, what do you want to do?"
Hunter personally poured him a cup of coffee, then sat down in the boss's chair, lit a fine Cuban cigar, took a deep breath, and said unhurriedly: "First of all, we will vigorously promote your filmmaking, and then we need you to do some cooperation." ”
"For example, you can hire some residents in the jurisdiction, or let them do group performances, and if you can, hire them as actors, and take on various positions, such as set assistants or whatever. ”
"Anyway, you're filming in our jurisdiction, so why don't you just choose some places and let us talk to them. Paying them a small portion of the rent and requisitioning their venue for your set is also a great promotional opportunity for them, and I think they'll agree. ”
Listening to Hunter's words, Tang Feng almost couldn't help but rush up and kiss him fiercely, this is really a pie-in-the-sky thing!
That way, he can quickly open up the situation, save a lot of money, and when the movie is actually released, it will also give a big boost to the box office.
The most important thing is that with the backing of the police station, he can shoot some scenes that he couldn't even think of before!
Not only does it perfectly solve the problem of the venue, but it can also hire a large number of group performers, plus Wilton's support, it is completely the rhythm of a big production!
He's been worrying about these things these days, but he hasn't figured out a good solution yet, and Hunter has already thought it out for him. And in a way that he had not thought of at all, and in his absolute favor, solved these puzzles.
Of course, he also knew that this was a mutually beneficial thing, and while helping him, Hunt could also get what he wanted, which was the increase in prestige and the support of the people.
Holding back the excitement in his heart, Tang Feng said calmly: "Hunter, I have to say that this is a very good idea. ”
"But ......"
Hunter hurriedly asked, "But what? Don't you agree? You have to think about it, it's definitely a great thing for you." ”
His nervousness, Tang Feng completely saw in his eyes.
If he had only been a teenager, he would have jumped with joy by now.
But as an old fritter who has been in Hollywood for many years, how can he not put forward some more conditions at this time to seek greater benefits for himself?
Tang Feng paused, and then did not hide his thoughts, but said sincerely: "Hunter, I very much agree with your proposal, if we can really do this, it will be very beneficial to you and me." ”
"But you know, I'm a director with ideas, and too much commercial stuff can affect the quality of the film. ”
Hearing his words, Hunter's face tightened, then he stared at Tang Feng and asked, "You must seriously consider this matter! ”
Tang Feng smiled lightly and continued: "In terms of the choice of venues, it is not that the more the better, I will choose the venues that match the plot. ”
"In terms of employing people, I also need complete decision-making power, that is, I have to decide who to use and who to use, and other people, including the police department, have no right to intervene. ”
"And when you are shooting, you need your help with the formalities that need to be done, such as closing the street or something. ”
Tang Feng said his suggestion, and Hunter nodded in agreement, he is a person who does big things, and he doesn't care about these small things.
When he finished his thoughts, Hunter immediately waved his big hand without hesitation and promised boldly: "No problem, I agreed to all the conditions you said!"
