Chapter 923: Against the Wind (8)

Cheng Xiaoyu was still thinking about how to deal with the matter with Peter Kopla, and trouble had already come to the door, and after Cheng Xiaoyu and them had a day of filming, the people from the school office called David to the office and told them that because they interfered with the normal learning of the students, they could only terminate the cooperation and ask them to find another school to shoot. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

There is no doubt that this is Peter Kopera's ghost, David, who received this notice, doesn't know what to do, David is actually a typical Hollywood academic director, not good at handling affairs outside the crew, this kind of person is only suitable for being the second-in-command of Hollywood movies - director, definitely not the number one - producer, at this moment he can only take the notice sent by Columbia College and hurriedly tell Cheng Xiaoyu about it.

Cheng Xiaoyu looked at David's face flushed in the sun, did not panic, groaned for a moment, and took David to take the agreement signed with Columbia College a few days ago to argue with reason, and when he found the bald person in charge of the Academic Affairs Office, he only got a very cold answer: "Because of many student complaints, we are also helpless, so we can only terminate this cooperation......

The bald head of the school office of Columbia College, seeing that Cheng Xiaoyu was still holding the contract in his hand, added: "It is very clear in the contract that the school has the right to unilaterally terminate the contract...... Because the filming scenes provided to you are free of charge, although the students involved in the filming have food subsidies to get ...... But it has nothing to do with the school, it just allows you to recruit actors in the school and support your work....... But now it is clear that your work has affected the normal order of our school......"

Cheng Xiaoyu knew that this was just an excuse, but he still wanted to try his best to redeem it, so he said patiently: "Mr. Joy........ We only filmed the scene outside the school today, and we haven't even entered the classroom...... It is not likely to interfere with students' learning....... And I don't think it's too much for a school that mainly studies film to terminate the contract with such an excuse?"

With a businesslike expression, the bald Joey completely forgot that he had received a box of Cuban cigars and two bottles of Lafite from Yi Yunfei, and said, "Mr. Cheng, this is the decision of the school director...... I can't do anything about it......."

Cheng Xiaoyu was also a little dissatisfied and said in a deep voice: "Then I want to see the school director." ”

Seeing that Cheng Xiaoyu was resolute and not so easy to deal with, the bald Joey walked to the window in the corridor and closed the blinds, then took out the bag under the office desk, and handed it back to Cheng Xiaoyu with blood dripping in his heart, his expression suddenly became helpless, and he lowered his voice and said: "Mr. Cheng, you can't change this matter, give up! They told me that they think that a grass stage team like you is not beneficial to the students, and it can neither increase their acting experience nor increase their shooting experience." ...... Of course, there are other reasons that prompted the school to make such a decision, and you should know it in your heart.......... While I don't think it's reasonable, it doesn't help....... As for the students, you can still continue to invite them as group performers, but the school can't use them as filming locations for you....... Thank you for your understanding. ”

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't take the paper bag, but just nodded expressionlessly and said, "That's okay...... You mean it's not negotiable...... I'll withdraw the crew now......" Cheng Xiaoyu also knew that although the contract was signed, because this contract did not involve money, it was not very binding, and it was too easy for the school to find fault with the crew....... Even a lawsuit is a matter that costs money and energy, so you can only withdraw first.

The bald Joey was relieved to see that Cheng Xiaoyu did not take back the things given to him, these things were bought by himself by swiping his credit card, and the things that Yi Yunfei gave him had already been enjoyed, and it was extremely painful to spend money to buy them at the moment, since Cheng Xiaoyu did not take them back, he could still return these things.

Seeing Cheng Xiaoyu turn around and leave, the bald Joey immediately put the paper bag under the desk again, and said in a slightly relaxed tone: "Hey! Mr. Cheng....... Our school director and Mr. Peter are both directors of the directors' union...... I advise you not to look for a school in Hollywood, but to find a school in the backcountry of Los Angeles..........."

No matter who it is, "Xichu Film" is just a layman film company, and Cheng Xiaoyu's name has never been heard of, and no one expects them to have any production ability, let alone distribution ability, so it is a good choice between Peter Kopla and Cheng Xiaoyu.

Raising high and stepping on low is a problem that every country has, but Cheng Xiaoyu should be glad that he did not attract Sony's attention at this moment, this is just Peter Kopla's personal behavior. The neon crown prince didn't know that Cheng Xiaoyu was filming a movie in the United States, otherwise his movie dream might be strangled in the cradle.

Cheng Xiaoyu asked the crew to withdraw from Columbia College and start filming other outdoor scenes, while Yi Yunfei and David went to find the school's filming location together, the two went to more than a dozen schools in two days, and there were schools with traditional film and television majors, either the schedule did not allow it, or they also received the news, so most of them were unwilling to cooperate with the shooting, and agreed to lend the school, but there were no students for them to use as extras, and suddenly there was no location in the whole of Los Angeles for him to shoot.

At this time, not only everyone in the crew knew about the conflict between Cheng Xiaoyu and Peter Kopla, but the rookie director's direct entry into the famous director's set was known to almost everyone in Hollywood, although there were also people who sympathized with Cheng Xiaoyu, but most people were waiting to see how the film company called "Xichu" and the director named Cheng Xiaoyu were finished.......

It's just that they ignore one point, although Cheng Xiaoyu is a Hollywood beginner, he is a local tyrant, and most directors do not lose in talent when they are not famous, but lose to money. Cheng Xiaoyu has no money concerns, and he can still squander a lot of money to clear the way for himself, Peter Coplar is no better than Benjamin Franklin on a 100-dollar bill.

Of course, Cheng Xiaoyu can also leave Los Angeles to shoot in other places, such as San Francisco, but he doesn't want to run away like this, he feels that he has escaped enough, so he posted a million-dollar reward on the famous rent-seeking website in Los Angeles, which will be donated to the school that cooperated with their shooting.

One million dollars is not a very small number, although it seems to be nothing in film investment, but you must know that the vast majority of Hollywood movies are actually low-budget B-grade films, and there are only a few A-grade films with a million-dollar investment in a year.

Countless directors have racked their brains in order to get hundreds of thousands of dollars in investment, and Cheng Xiaoyu directly donated 1 million to the filming site, which is also quite a tyrant.......

Most of the rental websites that publish this information are for Hollywood film shooting, equipment rental, prop rental, finding suitable shooting locations for various crews, and finding crews in need for various venues....... So most of the people on this site are people from the Hollywood film industry.

The day after Cheng Xiaoyu's million-dollar bounty was issued, the news of "Xichu Pictures" counterattacking Peter Kopla spread throughout Hollywood, and it was originally thought to be a one-sided battle, but it turned out to be interesting, and it also whetted the appetite of the entire Hollywood film circle, all waiting for the follow-up development...... But no one is optimistic about this Chinese tyrant who came to Hollywood.

After all, making a movie is not more than money, it is still a technical job.......... Besides, no matter how rich "Xichu" is, can it be compared to Sony Pictures behind Peter Kopla?

(There is one more likely to be a little later)
