Win-win is often an illusion, but Liang Baoguang must convince Mike Mancini that this cooperation is beneficial to both parties: he himself has found the world's best "substitute" drummer for the film, and Mike Mancini has contributed to the spread of jazz. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This contribution is anonymous, and the audience will not know about McMancini's efforts, as for whether the other party really wants to contribute silently, or is ready to write it down in a small book and wait until it will create a bigger sensation in the future, Liang Baoguang does not care at all, he only cares about whether his film can meet the expected level.

Since he said that he was going to New York to contribute to jazz, it is undoubtedly an insult to talk about the remuneration of substitute beating, but the lost time pay must be paid anyway, even if he only goes to the set on the weekend to shoot the drumming scene, it will affect Mike Mancini's normal teaching, so Liang Baoguang used this reason to pay him a million dollars.

This price is almost equal to Freddie Heimer's acting salary, but Liang Baoguang paid very happily, not only because the drummer in front of him is worth this price, but also because he will definitely make other types of movies in the future, and if people in other fields can feel the power of role models and actively cooperate with him, his million dollars will not be spent in vain. It's true that MacMancini doesn't let him go around preaching, but it's not something he can control if he "carelessly" says it when he needs to.

Liang Baoguang wanted to invite Mike Mancini to dinner together, but the other party continued to mix in the orchestra while being a professor, and there were so many things that he couldn't squeeze in time, so he didn't force it, and took Kim Tae-hee and the two of them to find the most representative food in Boston.

Boston has a nickname called "The Center," and the people who lived here a hundred or two hundred years ago believed that Liberty City was not only the center of the earth but also the center of the universe. Many firsts in the United States were given to Boston, and UnionOysterHouse, where Liang Baoguang took Kim Tae-hee to dine, was the first restaurant in the United States, with a long history of more than 200 years.

Nowadays, this restaurant is simply regarded as a tourist attraction, and there are many people at any time, Liang Baoguang did not do the bar in front of him to watch the performance of people opening oysters, but went to the private room he had booked in advance. It's a common problem for men to show off when it's okay, and he is not exempt from vulgarity: "The Kennedy family often comes to this private room for parties, and we will also experience presidential-level treatment today." ”

"Don't make me laugh, that's what a president treats?" UnionOysterHouse's style is not bad, the all-wood structure decoration and antique accessories must be worthy of the name of the first restaurant in the United States, but the space in this box is too small, and the table makes her a petite Asian woman feel aggrieved to sit, and I really imagine how not only those big American guys can stand it.

After sitting down, I always wanted to complain, but Kim Tae-hee stopped talking after the dishes were served, Ulsan is also a coastal city, and Fangjin Fishing Port is quite famous in South Korea to taste seafood, but since she was a child, she has eaten so many seafood, none of which is better than UnionOysterHouse, "What kind of soup is this, so fresh?" ”

"New England clam bisque, one of the signature dishes here." Liang Baoguang knew Kim Tae-hee's preferences, so he directly ordered all the things for her, and now he is relieved to see that she is eating happily. Don't look at Kim Tae-hee's usual appearance as an intellectual lady, in fact, her temper is not very good, and she can toss people when she is not satisfied.

"It turns out that there is clam meat in it, no wonder I have a healthy taste after eating it, and I feel that my life has become longer." The soup is clams, Li Shizhen introduced in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" that "the clams in the sea are beneficial to people" is this thing, because it looks good and has a strong umami taste after being boiled with milk, it is very popular with female diners, Kim Tae-hee is a little conquered, and he left a milky white liquid at the corner of his mouth without finding it.

"It's just ordinary cooking, and without the mysterious power from the East, people's lifespan will not be extended." Kim Tae-hee only said that his lifespan was getting longer but he didn't specify the time to the second, so Liang Baoguang put back the heart that mentioned his throat and eyes, "Does Nuna know why he called you here today?" ”

"Are you afraid that driving on the road will be boring, find someone to accompany you?" Kim Tae-hee didn't quite understand Liang Baoguang's intention of calling her to come to Boston with her, and the negotiation process with Mike Mancini today was very smooth, and she was just a melon-eating crowd watching from the sidelines, and she didn't play a role at all.

"Because you don't understand music." Liang Baoguang pretended to smile deeply.

"Because I don't know music?" Kim Tae-hee chewed on the true meaning of this sentence.

Although Liang Baoguang has been a demon in the color for a while, and even now in essence, there is not much change, but before the pervert, he was first of all a person who was extremely afraid of trouble, if it wasn't for the reason why he had to bring it, he wouldn't have bothered to bring Kim Tae-hee from New York to Boston, "Didn't you have any thoughts after listening to my performance of "DiggingMyPotato" with Mike in the afternoon? ”

"I don't have any feelings, I just want to go back and find a CD to listen to." Kim Tae-hee doesn't usually listen to music at all, and he's not interested in jazz, so he basically changes the channel when he hears a bar or two on TV, and when he walks to a coffee shop, he automatically blocks it out in his ears. But today it seemed a little different, and what still seemed very insensitive to her suddenly became attractive, and she couldn't help but want to understand.

"That's right." Liang Baoguang nodded, yesterday Scarlett Johansson wanted to come with him, but Scarlett Johansson was not only an actress but also released an album and wrote tunes, so he refused without thinking about it; In contrast, Kim Tae-hee really doesn't understand music, not only does he not understand it, but he is also a big sound idiot, "People who don't understand are the most direct and candid." ”

The quality of a good movie itself is important, but if you want to make a result, you still need the public's attention and speech, and the two complement each other indispensably. "Thrill 1995", also known as "The Shawshank Redemption", was later rated as the greatest and greatest film in the world, but in fact it did not even win a major award, only a Japanese Academy Award and a Hochi Film Award for solace. As for the box office is worse than the awards, it is so miserable that people can't bear to look at it directly, and they can't see it at all related to the word "success".

No matter how hard fans try to argue about it, it can't change the fact that "The Shawshank Redemption" is a failure, and its failure lies not in its own quality as a film, but in the fact that its makers simply did not consider the audience's viewing experience. One hundred and forty-two minutes of content takes the audience two weeks to digest, which can no longer be called a mistake, it is simply anti-human.

"The Shawshank Redemption" is indeed very powerful, almost every word someone asks about the greatest movie will appear its name, but ask who its director is, I'm afraid that even those IMBD heroes who claim to know movies can't report the name of Frank Darabont. There is really no need to remember him, because it was just a mediocre talent who accidentally hit the luck, and it turned out that he was useless when he left Stephen King and left prison, and in the end, even Stephen King could not save him.

Liang Baoguang does not deny that his ability to direct films is limited, or to be honest, very poor, so he needs to rely on something other than the language of the film to help him gain public recognition, rather than focusing only on the film itself...... Come to think of it, only music can be the weapon that can help him kill everywhere.

"Even in the silent film era, movies had a background music, because music was often more emotional than the picture, and when I wrote 'The Burst Drummer,' I had a clear goal of getting as many people into the cinema as possible." Liang Baoguang is a very realistic person, there are always people who say that the public's recognition is not important, and it is enough for the work to be excellent, but he is extremely eager for substantive things such as awards, box office, and word-of-mouth, "Today, Lanuna came to Boston to tell Mike a truth, as long as no matter how good the music is, as long as the audience does not appreciate it, it is a piece of Xiang, and if someone appreciates it, even a piece of Xiang can become art." ”

Kim Tae-hee finally understood Liang Baoguang's intentions, and he brought her to show Mike Mancini the reality: ordinary people are also attracted to jazz, and now jazz is so sluggish and so niche, not because the public's appreciation ability is not enough, but because these people who engage in jazz are self-admiring and pretentious, which has ruined everyone's appetite.

"Now those who play jazz always think that they are better than others, and some guys are so bad that they can't even find the pitch, and jazz is what it feels like, and even a big touch like Mike is a bit complacent, and if you love it, you should share it, right?" Times have changed, and in this day and age anything can be consumed, even faith. If you accept it, you will keep up with the reality and keep pace with the times, and if you don't accept it, you will be buried in the soil and turned into dust.

Kim Tae-hee pouted, "Don't you like rock music, how did you make a jazz-themed movie?" ”

Liang Baoguang rubbed the purple-red velvet suede on the box containing the harmonica, "Jazz and rock music are like shark fin and fans, obviously the latter tastes better, but everyone just believes that the former is more delicious." I compromised, so I set it this way...... Eh, what are you doing Nuna? ”

"Drink, get tired." Kim Tae-hee picked up the cup and drank the dry beer inside.

Liang Baoguang felt that something was wrong, but there seemed to be nothing wrong.
