Chapter 136: Wang Fatzi's Thoughts

Cannes is sunny in May, beautiful women in bikinis come and go on the soft sand, and there are a variety of yachts parked in the beautiful harbor. As the most famous resort in Europe www.biquge.info there have always been a lot of tourists here, not to mention that the annual film festival has come.

"Come, Anna, say goodbye to your mother. Li Xu hugged his daughter and stood behind Isabel Adjani, who was about to go out.

Isabel, who was about to attend the opening ceremony, was wearing a white translucent dress, loose but not fat, with a belt composed of countless fragments but not messy accessories around her waist, small flowers pinned to her head and hairpins tied together, black hair combed back, and a pair of earrings falling from both sides, looking clear and dusty.

"Mama. Annabelle, whose pronunciation was still a little inaccurate, exclaimed sweetly.

"Obediently at home. Isabel kissed her daughter's little face gently, and then looked at Li Xu, "With Dad." ”

The latter sentence is still a bit gnashing.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Li Xu said and came over.

Isabel glared at him covertly and stepped aside.

"Oh, Anna, Mom doesn't like Dad," Li Xu immediately exclaimed exaggeratedly, "But she's still wearing clothes designed by Dad, do you say Mom likes Dad or doesn't like Dad?"

The little guy opened his eyes wide, looked at his father, looked at his mother, and looked ignorant.

Isabel glared at him again covertly and fiercely, and then smiled at her daughter, and then reluctantly came to Li Xu.

Just as she was about to kiss, Li Xu suddenly turned his head and pecked her red lips directly. And as soon as she touches it, she will never remember it, although Isabel's eyes are wide open, she can't do anything in front of her daughter.

"Well, this time I really want to say goodbye to my mother. Li Xu proudly raised his daughter's arm and waved.

"Ma Ma is under construction. Annabelle exclaimed vaguely.

No matter how she gritted her teeth, Isabel could only endure it, and after saying goodbye to her daughter, she stepped on the ground and left, the car had been waiting outside the hotel for a long time, and the opening ceremony was about to begin.

Li Xu smiled, and when she left, she carried Anna out of the suite, came to the balcony of the opposite suite, and asked the nanny who had pretended to be deaf and dumb to bring a pot of tea, and began to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the reporters who were surrounding downstairs.

He had already taken the top floor of the Martinez Hotel into the hotel, so he didn't have to worry about anyone finding anything, and even if someone did, he wouldn't necessarily be connected, and Isabel did a good job of protecting her privacy.

There were cheers below, and you can imagine how excited the reporters were when they saw Isabel Adjani, wearing pressed hair and dressed in white, appear in front of the camera, pressing the shutter.

In another time and space, some people commented on Isabel's appearance in Cannes, the moment of one white and one black is the most classic, not to mention the black for the time being, the white is the set that Li Xu is designing for her now.

Well, the design is probably not accurate, he just drew a few sketches that resembled three views, and then found someone to professionally optimize the design, and then made it.

Although Isabel was very reluctant to wear the clothes he had made up, she reluctantly tried them on and fell in love with the outfit and eventually chose to wear it to the opening ceremony.

"So, there's no woman who doesn't like beauty, understand, Anna?" Li Xu said teasing his daughter.

He actually preferred Isabel's black outfit, which was more mysterious and elegant, but she couldn't convey that outfit as it should, so it would be a few more years.

"You're going to be beautiful in the future, too. Li Xu pinched Annabelle's fleshy little face and said.

It's a pity that the little guy turned a deaf ear, babbling and making meaningless sounds, grabbing the small Rubik's cube specially made for her, smashing it for a while, and putting it in his mouth......

Then, the doorbell rang.

"Sir, there's an Asian looking for you. The babysitter came over and said.

"Asian?" Li Xu, who took the Rubik's Cube away from his daughter's hand, and caused the little guy to be dissatisfied, looked inside a little strangely, got up and entered the living room, and smiled when he saw the person at the door.

"Come in, Ah Jing. He said hello, and asked the little one in his arms to hand over to the nanny.

"Hello, Mr. Li. Wang Jing greeted respectfully, and glanced at Annabelle, who was drilling around in the nanny's arms, stretching out her arms to ask for her father.

"That's my daughter," Li Xu took the initiative to explain, "I'm still an illegitimate daughter, and her mother doesn't like me." ”

"Oh......" Wang Jing didn't mention it again, but he was very eye-catching.

"Come up to the balcony. Li Xu said so, and only after going out to sit down did he ask: "Today is the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, if you don't go to see it, what are you doing here?"

"That's right, I just came up with some ideas, and I couldn't wait to write them down, and I wanted to give them to Mr. Li to see. Wang Jing said so, and took out a notebook from the briefcase he was carrying with him and pushed it in front of Li Xu.

"Isn't it because you want to be worthy of my investment?" Li Xu, who picked up the script, raised his eyebrows and asked.

Wang Jing smiled, slightly embarrassed, Corporal Lixian must have something to ask for, he knew this very well. When he came to the United States from Hong Kong, the accommodation, living expenses, and tuition fees were all covered by the other party, and he was also equipped with a translator when his English was not up to par, which made many Chinese immigrants think that he was the son of a wealthy family.

As for stuffing into the crew of "Officers and Gentlemen" for internships, and supporting him to shoot two short films, not to mention, rough calculations, the cost is more than 100,000 US dollars, he wants to stop showing it, is he really a philanthropist?

"To be honest, Mr. Li, my English has just passed, if this film festival is in the United States and the United Kingdom, I can still go out to communicate, but this France is a bit blind. Wang Jing explained a little at this time, "Moreover, I prefer to make some movies that can make money, and I really can't understand these works of art." ”

"You should still go out and have a look, I don't go because I'm not interested, but you, as a director, are the ones who want to control the overall situation, and it is still necessary to refer to other people's techniques, compositions, and lighting. Li Xu said while looking at it.

"Isn't it in a hurry, in 12 days, a lot of movies are going to be released. Wang Jing said with a smile.

"Hmm...... There are no dolphins in Ocean Park now?" asked Li Xu what he saw in the script.

"yes, only killer whales and sea lions, but I think they can do what the script needs. Wang Jing hurriedly explained.

"Well, you're the director, you decide. Li Xu nodded, but quickly asked, "However, is it appropriate for you to move the main scene from Mui Wo to Tai O?"

"It's more suitable, the actor is a playboy, if he is looking for beauty and avoiding the limelight, he must stay away from Hong Kong Island. Wang Jing continued to explain, "And the terrain over Tai O is flat, so it is more likely that you will survive a car accident." Although Mui Wo is a port, but the surrounding terrain is relatively steep, I asked a friend in Hong Kong to check, there is no car accident over there is good, once an accident happens, most of them are car crashes and deaths. ”

"You did your homework very carefully. Li Xu immediately complimented.

"Of course I should go all out at Mr. Li's request," Wang Jing smiled, "Moreover, I remember that Mr. Li said before that the original setting was what happened in Hawaii, and the environment on the land of Tai O, except for modern facilities, is not much different from some small villages in Hawaii. ”

"Very good, I'll show you the storyboard soon, I'm almost done, it's okay to start work in the second half of the year, right?" Li Xu finally finished the script.

"This ......" Wang Jing hesitated, "If you can, Mr. Li, can you let me practice my hands first?"

"Oh, aren't MTV and those two short films enough for you to practice?" Li Xu raised an eyebrow.

"Movies, MTVs and short films, although they have something in common, they are two different things after all, and I am responsible for Mr. Li's investment. Wang Jing said cautiously.

After all, that's a big investment of 500 to 10 million, and if it is messed up, not to mention that it can't get off in front of Li Xu, it will become a joke in the Hong Kong film and television industry - Wang Jing obviously didn't understand what the 5 million to 10 million investment meant.

"What do you want to do?" Li Xu immediately asked.

"That's right, I still have a script here," Wang Jing continued to say cautiously, "I want to use this to practice first." ”

After speaking, he immediately added: "There will be no delay, "The Officer and the Gentleman" has been completed, and I happened to go back to Hong Kong to see my father after the film festival, and by the way, it can be produced, at most a month." You know, Hong Kong makes movies very quickly. ”

"Do you need me to talk to the Shaw Brothers?" Li Xu raised his eyebrows.

Wang Jing laughed twice, obviously having this plan.

"I'll look at the script. Li Xu said again.

Wang Jing immediately took out the new script and pushed it in front of him.

"A thousand kings fighting a thousand tyrants?" Li Xu read out, slightly surprised, a movie that should have disappeared, but it appeared in his hand in circles, I have to say, it's really interesting.

"It's a movie about gambling, and Hong Kong people love this type of movie. Wang Jing hurriedly explained, "I have been thinking about it for a long time, and it was originally ...... I already said that I was moved by my old bean. ”

Li Xu said "um", didn't say much, and then looked through the script. Seeing this, Wang Jing at least swallowed back the words behind him, and then waited with some worry.

Fortunately, he didn't wait too long, Li Xu quickly finished the script, and then thought for a few minutes: "This book, what is your budget?"

"About 800,000 or so is fine. Wang Jing immediately replied, "If the actors use them through Shaw Brothers productions, the cost can be further reduced." ”

"Further down?" Li Xu looked at him with a smile.

"Mr. Lee, I know what you mean, but Hong Kong is not Hollywood, and we can't be as systematic as them. Wang Jing smiled wryly, "The bigwigs all hope to make the most money with the least cost, not to mention Mr. Shao'......"

Speaking of this, he stuck out his tongue and didn't continue, after all, he was still eating at TVB.

"Okay, okay," Li Xu laughed, "I'll tell Mr. Shao, if they don't want to take the risk, I'll give you this money!" (To be continued.) )
