This world is a very realistic world, especially when it comes to money and profit......

Either you accept the reality of reluctance, silently accumulate your strength, and climb up step by step in a down-to-earth manner; or you can move forward bravely with a sharp (stupid) spirit, and never look back without dying.

Either way, until you succeed, you're the humblest person in the world.

Maybe you will be looked down upon for being insignificant, maybe you will be seen as a whimsical fool, but the moment you really succeed, everyone will look up to your existence!

If it weren't for Tang Feng killing the murderous crocodile by mistake, he won Hunter's support, and because of a small misunderstanding, Wilton looked at him differently, and then praised him and became his partner.

With his capital of more than 30,000 US dollars, it is impossible to make a real movie.

The biggest possibility is that he ran out of money while struggling, and in the end he got nothing!

Of course, if he just followed the original idea, made an abridged version of the experimental film, and then went to Sundance to hit the luck, it was perfectly feasible.

Whether it is Hunter or Wilton, the reason why they are now willing to go all out to help Tang Feng is actually largely determined by the benefits they see.

If only with that little bit of pitiful appreciation, or favorability, no one would be willing to help a Chinese teenager like Tang Feng, who is outside the mainstream.

Wilton was looking for nothing more than a true filmmaker's name, while Hunt was more practical, he was still in his prime and naturally wanted a better official reputation and greater fame.

Wilton didn't think too much about what kind of box office the movie "Killer Tragedy" would have in the end, and according to his ideas, as long as it didn't lose too badly, it was acceptable.

Hunter was even simpler, he didn't even bother to think about it, it was none of his business. Anyway, he didn't spend a penny of his own money, as long as he did a good job and could please his lover, it was enough.

As the saying goes: "Before the soldiers and horses move, the grain and grass go first." ”

Nowhere is this more evident than in the film industry, whether it is a powerful eight major film companies or ambitious independent producers, the most important thing in the process of preparing a film is money!

If you don't have enough funds, let alone those famous directors and actors who will join, and you don't have to think about any high-level big productions, it is likely that even the normal expenses of the crew will be a big problem.

Even if Tang Feng got the support of Hunter and Wilton, in fact, he still only had 30,000 yuan, so he had to find a way to open up sources and reduce expenses.

Now this big plan that is about to be launched is really too important for him.

If he can achieve the effect he wants, then he is absolutely sure that he will make his movie into a real big production!

At least in terms of action scenes, it will not be inferior to any action movie produced by any of the eight major production companies!

At ten o'clock in the morning, under the leadership of Hunter, Tang Feng, Annie, Wilton and Ken came to the largest conference room of the Eastern Police Department.

At this time, dozens of businesses have gathered here, and it can be said that they are all famous people in East Los Angeles.

This is the first time Tang Feng has experienced such a scene. He can be regarded as an experienced old fritter, but he is also a little apprehensive, after all, this is related to his own vital interests, and it is impossible not to be nervous.

On the other hand, Hunter looked red and high-spirited, and Anne followed Hunter closely, but she also seemed a little nervous.

Wilton is like a battle-hardened general, standing straight on the stage and standing still, he has experienced a lot of scenes bigger than this, so naturally he doesn't catch a cold very much.

Ken's performance surprised Tang Feng a little, at this moment he didn't look cheap, but behaved calmly, and he didn't see any restraint.

As the host and initiator, he took the lead in saying: "Everyone, I am Director Hunt, and I invite you to come today to talk to you about the law and order issues in the jurisdiction. ”

"Maybe you've heard of me and know me a little bit, although I've only been in office for a short time, but I've actually been working in the Eastern Police Department for more than ten years, so I still know a lot about this place......"

"Overall, there are still a lot of problems in our area, but the most painful thing for me is the attitude of the people towards the police!"

"They don't seem to like us, they don't understand how we work, they don't care about the work of the officers, and they even have a strong sense of distance and rejection from us. ”

"So I thought, is it really wrong that we have done something wrong when we work hard to protect everyone's safety, regardless of the danger, but we don't get the understanding and respect we deserve?"

When Hunter said this, he looked at the reactions of the people below, and unfortunately he didn't see much sympathy, but more disdain and indifference.

If he was just foreshadowing and just doing a show just now, at this time he really felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, and asked himself in his heart: "Did we really do something wrong?"

Immediately, the answer was forthcoming.

I saw him say in a loud voice with an excited expression: "I think, we really did something wrong!"

"In the past, we always felt that we were superior, that we had worked hard, and that we always took things for granted. But we have forgotten that we are all ordinary people, and we also need your support, understanding, and love. ”

"A police officer should not just be a job, but an honor!"

"Therefore, I declare that from today onwards, we will correct our previous mistakes, and at the same time, we will try to get closer to the people, and we are willing to work with you to build our homeland!"

Maybe Hunter was genuine, or maybe he really touched the hearts of some people, and this time when he paused, the room burst into applause.

Hunter also nodded to everyone, and then continued: "The first thing we need to do is to change the way the police officers have always enforced the law, and try to change it to a more gentle way. ”

"At the same time, we also need to strengthen our ties with the people, and now we are preparing a series of activities to improve the relationship with everyone. ”

After speaking, he pointed to Tang Feng beside him, "He is a young director from our eastern neighborhood, and he is currently working with our police department to make our own movie." ”

Now, let's ask him to tell us about this movie. ”

Tang Feng didn't expect Hunter to say half of it, so he led the topic to him. According to the original script, it should have been Hunter's whole introduction, and then he would have chosen the venue and negotiated.

But now that he had to send it, Tang Feng had no choice but to stand up, "Hello everyone, my name is Sean, and I live in the twenty-first block." ”

"That's right, I'm really making a movie, well, a very interesting cop movie. ”

"Because I needed the support of the police department in some plots, I met Commissioner Hunt, and it was because I was inspired by some of his ideas that an idea came to my mind. ”

"As you know, most of the way Hollywood shoots movies now is closed shooting, mainly to avoid interference from the outside world......"

Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Tang Feng gradually regained his usual calm and confidence, and his voice and intonation became more fluent and natural.

So I thought, why hide it when it's my own home, why should I keep it secret? I might as well let my family and friends, all my neighbors, join in, so that they can also experience the joy of making movies. ”

"This idea of mine coincides with Director Hunt, and it is at this time that he also wants to make some changes, so I have today's meeting, and of course, I hope to get everyone's support. ”

When he said this, the people below all understood, and immediately talked nonsense: "It turns out that you called us together to help you make a movie?"

"I'm okay with making movies, but why should I hire this kid? What is he capable of, is he better than those big directors in Hollywood?"

"Boy, how old are you, do you know how to make a movie? It's just a joke! God knows if his film will be released?"

"It's so unreliable, Hunter, I think you should give us an explanation. Everyone's so busy that I don't have time to fool around with you here!"

"Your Excellency, I lodge a serious protest against your irresponsible actions! You are simply wasting our precious time!"

"That's it, that's it! At the beginning, it was quite like that, what to get closer to the people, what to actively change attitudes or something, I think it's completely nonsense, this is a scam at all!"

"Milky boy, go down quickly! Let Hunter come and talk to us, you don't have the qualifications yet! We don't welcome you, and we don't trust you!"

Before this, Tang Feng also had some psychological preparations, he was not naïve to think that as long as he stood up, he would be supported by everyone, crying and shouting and begging him to go to his own territory to make movies.

But he never thought that he would encounter such a big cold reception and rejection, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that I still underestimate the degree of conservatism in this era." ”

Seeing that the scene was in chaos, Hunter wanted to come out to save the scene, but he couldn't ignore the feelings of Tang Feng who was standing in front, so he whispered: "If it doesn't work, let me deal with it, and calm down their emotions first." ”

Now that such a situation has happened, Tang Feng knows that no matter how much he says, he will not be able to calm everyone's dissatisfaction, but if he is bombarded like this, then he will really be defeated!

Since saying nothing will work, then the only thing left is to do something practical, and hopefully something will change.

But no matter what, he must not back down!

Having made up his mind, Tang Feng resisted everyone's reprimand, stopped Hunter, who wanted to come out to save the scene, raised his voice and said, "Whether you trust me or not, please give me five minutes!"

He then took a videotape from Anne and put it in the projector behind him.

After pressing the start button, he stood to the side of the screen with a blank face, ignoring the hustle and bustle below.

Immediately afterward, Hunter also stood silently beside him, followed by Anne, who was a little pale, Wilton, who was still unmoved, and Ken, who was red-faced.
