Chapter 172: A Few Little Things
There's not much to say about the new semester, as always, with Scott's help, there's nothing to worry about. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although Li Xu went to East Asia for two months, he and Adam have not broken off their contact, and they can have few friends, but they must not be without. Even if you spend most of your time rolling around with women, you still find time to ask them out and hang out or go to other people's parties.
"Did you go to college like that?" After listening to Scott's account of his experience at Harvard, Adam, who was tired at Stanford, was half complaining and half teasing.
"I can't help it, I can't leave things behind and don't do it, right?" Li Xu was also very embarrassed, if it weren't for the requirements of his family, plus the need to meet a few powerful traders in the future through Harvard, and expand his network, he really didn't want to go to college.
But fortunately, there is a female secretary by his side now, and he is basically good at work, capable and capable, so he can handle things more efficiently.
For example, for the promotion of "The Officer and the Gentleman", Paramount has done a good job, the poster has been rolled out, and the trailer has been released, reaching the average level of this era. The schedule is scheduled before Thanksgiving, which is not bad for a movie with no big-name stars and a cost of only 7 million.
In addition to this movie, Imagination Pictures currently has no other business, not that Li Xu doesn't want to, but that it's not necessary. After his representative made it to Paramount's board of directors at the end of last month, it was only easier to make a movie.
Oh, and of course, when "The Officer and the Gentleman" is released, neither Barry Diller nor Paramount's board of directors will refuse to make a big film.
Besides, it's not that he doesn't have a plan for the future, at least the film adaptation rights of "Mother and Daughter Love" have been obtained.
On the investment company's side, although under the operation of the general manager, it has also invested in several companies, but from the name to the founder, Li Xu has no impression, and he can sell it when the price doubles.
Although this may miss some promising companies, some well-known companies may be renamed after a few years of establishment, such as silicon and neural bonds, but it doesn't matter, just focus on the big and let go of the small.
However, these investments, as well as the funds handed over to Sequoia Capital for operation, are considered long-term investments, and no matter how short they are, it will take months or even a year, so the main money is still a few funds.
With the help of my dad to watch, I followed Da Mo not to say how much cake he could share, and it was no problem to eat a small piece, which was better than those who picked up leftovers of soup and didn't know where it was.
The progress in Hong Kong is also going well, "I Love Night Prime" was launched in mid-September, with the efficiency of Hong Kong people, the shooting date is about 20 days, and the sky is only four weeks, maybe Li Xu used to prepare to start the new movie.
Although Lin Qingxia complained on the phone, the nannies and assistants arranged made her quite embarrassed on the set - the stars of this era are not as big names as they were later, they all come and go by themselves, and there are nannies and assistants there.
But she didn't ask for it to be canceled, after all, it was found by her man, and according to the information fed back, Xu Ke and they were also very eye-catching on the set, and they didn't have anything to say - the actors are basically the original, Xu Ke, Teddy Robin, Lin Zixiang, except that the director is Xu Ke.
However, Xu Ke was originally the director of the original version, mainly because when he was making this movie, he was also producing "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" for Golden Harvest, and he was worried that Xinyicheng or Golden Harvest would find trouble, so he was named Teddy Robin.
They have been in the circle anyway, and they know when to speak and when to shut up, not to mention that Xu Ke and Teddy Robin know who is standing behind Lin Qingxia.
But it's hard to say what the crew is doing, and it is estimated that the next time he goes to Hong Kong, he will hear a lot of gossip about Lin Qingxia.
In comparison, "Thousands of Rivers, Thousands of Mountains, Always Love", which was also launched in mid-September, is not so troublesome, and it is good that the TV station is its own. In addition, the supporting actress finally chose Wei Qiuhua, the reason, that role is a Japanese woman, and she plays a Japanese woman in "Hero Huo Yuanjia", and she is also quite popular
As for whether there are any other ideas...... Hehe.
Speaking of "Hero Huo Yuanjia", Li Xu had to give CCTV a thumbs up, although in August, he already knew that this TV series would be broadcast on CCTV, but now is not 30 years later, and the news still has a relatively long lag, so I didn't know the specific situation until September.
Then, he felt that the CCTV people were really dedicated, not only did they not say anything about the re-dubbing, but they also asked people to re-record "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" in Mandarin, and the singer was Jiang Dawei!
When Li Xu saw this news for the first time, he really wanted to shout: I'll go!
You can re-dub it, you still use Mandarin to cover Cantonese songs, cover it, although the pronunciation is a little strange, but it's not impossible, "Men should be self-reliant" Isn't there two versions and the lyrics remain the same? However, let Jiang Dawei sing the Mandarin version of "The Great Wall Will Never Fall"......
This style of painting is too strange, isn't it? Your CCTV's brain hole is inevitably too big, right?!
However, the copyrights have been sold to them, so let them be, anyway, the Chinese people in this era have no other choice, and it will still be a classic after 30 years.
It is...... If "Thousands of Rivers, Thousands of Mountains and Always Love" were also sold, and they did the same, who would they find to sing it? Guo Lanying, Li Guyi, Guan Mucun, Yin Xiumei, or...... Somebody?
Forget it, don't talk about this, these are basically within the controllable range, but there are also surprises, such as Wang Fatzi personally ran over with photos or something to ask the boss for advice.
"Here are a few addresses I chose, you see, if it's appropriate, I'll continue. Wang Jing laid out a table of photos of Tai O, accompanied by some of the sub-shots drawn according to the actual situation.
This is not the first time he has done this, before Li Xu asked him to go back and draw a ten-minute storyboard according to his own ideas, but he finished drawing directly. It's sloppy, but it's a commendable attitude.
"You've done a good job, and the backgrounds I draw are all based on Hawaii, so your opinion on this aspect is the main reference. Li Xu praised it.
"Thank you boss. Wang Jing rubbed his hands and smiled.
"If you're really worried, you can just find two random actors to shoot some plots, and then edit them out for a few minutes for me to see. Li Xu, who knew that he was still a little worried, immediately said, "Of course, I will give you the fee." ”
Wang Jingleng paused, and couldn't help laughing: "In this case, it's okay." ”
"Don't be burdened, I only care about the movie, and I don't care about anything else, as long as it makes the movie better. Li Xu said.
Of course, not caring doesn't mean that he will completely let it go, just like the crew of "The Officer and the Gentleman", even if he has hardly been there, but the people on the financial side have been staring at it.
These are all small things, in fact, there is nothing worth paying attention to throughout September, and even if it is a certain thing, it is already a matter of course.
"Jiahui, when did you come to the United States?" Although Zhang Bingqian showed a look of surprise after seeing her daughter, this surprise was really a little reluctant.
"Just a few days ago, I went on vacation. Guan Zhilin looked indifferent, and after following her mother in, she looked around, looking very curious.
"Doesn't Mommy live in San Francisco? Why did she move to Boston? She then complained.
"I just came here for a few days. Zhang Bingqian smiled a little reluctantly.
"Rent such a nice house for a few days?" Guan Zhilin had a disbelieving expression.
"Oh, Mommy's investment has made some money, and I'm out for a vacation. Zhang Bingqian said and diverted the topic, "By the way, didn't you say that you have been studying acting in Japan? How are you studying? The last time I saw your photo, it seems that you are still practicing singing?"
"Yes, yes," Guan Zhilin became excited, "Let me tell you, the TV station thinks I have a good voice, and plans to release an album for me." ”
"Really, what about your father? Does he know?" Zhang Bingqian immediately asked.
"I told him, and he didn't object. Guan Zhilin shrugged.
Then, there was a thud from upstairs, and it seemed that something had fallen to the ground.
"What is it?" Guan Zhilin asked curiously.
"Oh, maybe it's something that hasn't been put away, I'll go up and take a look, you wait down there for a while. Zhang Bingqian hurriedly got up and walked upstairs as she spoke.
After her daughter couldn't see her, she rushed to the second floor in three steps and two steps, and only then did she enter the bedroom, and was hugged by a man and put her hands in her arms.
"Wait...... Wait a minute, Ah Xu ......" Zhang Bingqian struggled, "Jiahui is still ...... It's down there. ”
"I don't care about that," Li Xu chuckled in her ear, and the movements of his hands did not stop for a moment, "Don't forget what you promised me, your daughter, I can take it at any time." ”
"Good guy...... Brother ...... Please...... At least here......" Zhang Bingqian said pleadingly, but not only could not stop the other party, but after a while, all kinds of voices were mixed together in the bedroom.
Then, Guan Zhilin's voice: "Mommy, why have you been on it for so long, what's wrong?"
"Jiahui is here...... Jiahui is here......" Zhang Bingqian, who was in the torment, trembled, but fortunately Li Xu did not panic and took her to hide in a closet full of clothes.
So, when Guan Zhilin came in, she was startled, Zhang Bingqian stuck her head out of the pile of clothes in the half-pulled closet, and asked with a smile: "What...... What's wrong? No...... Didn't you stay down there?"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time and I haven't seen you come down, so I'll come up and have a look. Guan Zhilin replied, and then showed a puzzled voice, "Are you alright, Mommy?"
She took two more steps forward as she spoke.
"I'm fine, I'm fine!" Zhang Bingqian raised her voice suddenly, "Okay, Jiahui, can you go down first, just ...... Just a little thing fell down, I ...... I'll be ...... soon It will be cleaned up. ”
At this point, her eyes were on the verge of losing their lustre, her breathing was getting heavier, and her body seemed to be shaking as if she was trapped in her clothes.
