Miramax Film Company, which is still not a big company, basically eats with Disney, of course, Disney doesn't necessarily look at it, this company is purely a peripheral organization, and Disney has its own regular film production and distribution company.
However, the company's performance in the past two years has been very good, and Disney has come to pay for the acquisition, especially the two owners of this company, the Weinstein brothers, who have a very unique view of the movie.
The most outstanding introduction of Hong Kong films, yes, there are many Hong Kong film tapes on the American market, especially action movies, most of which are brought in by their brothers.
But in fact, if you really want to talk about this vision, this thing is still thanks to Quentin Tarantino.
Before Quentin made movies, he was a clerk in a video rental shop, and the later introduction of Hong Kong films was basically the pair of brothers he persuaded him, of course, the Weinstein brothers are now Quentin's current bosses.
Today, the two will welcome an important guest, and that is the famous producer, Jon Landau.
One of the things that Jon Landau is most famous for is that he got James Cameron to Twentieth Century Fox, and then Fox paid a lot of money for the two of them to make the now famous "Titanic".
You know, this investment is rare in film history, a full 200 million US dollars, of course, this investment does seem to be a large amount, but some people have calculated that if calculated according to inflation, the largest investment in film history is Twentieth Century Fox's "Cleopatra", which is calculated to be 400 million US dollars.
But this is a dollar, not a piece of paper.
Can be ...... today
"The "Space Journey" you did is a plagiarism of our new film "Titanic"!"
This Jon is really powerful enough, and as soon as he came, he made it clear and directly blamed.
"Mr. Landau, where does this begin?"
"yes, Jon, we're old friends, we're not going to do that kind of thing, are we?"
The Weinstein brothers seem to have honey on their mouths, and they look like old friends to pull relationships, which is really enough.
"We don't seem to know each other very well." Jon, the man who doesn't give these two guys face at all. "Many of the plots in this "Space Journey" are very similar to the script of our "Titanic", which is definitely plagiarism!"
"This ......"
"We don't know the script either."
The Weinstein brothers were a little at a loss, after all, the two of them were just responsible for investing, looking for money, and fooling Disney in this movie, and they didn't know anything else, and the reaction was very good, but they didn't expect to be approached.
"What about the screenwriter and director of this movie? Get him! It's that Chinese, right? Where is he? "This Jon was furious.
Anyway, quarrels are like this, when the opponent is a little soft, then you should take the initiative to attack, and you must not give the opponent a chance to breathe, Jon knows this.
So, Jon continued, "Those Chinese guys just like to copy other people's things!" ”
But at this time......
"Hey, this gentleman, you have to be careful when you speak, I can sue you for slander if you say this."
Liu Chao suddenly appeared!
Of course, he was pulled over by Quentin's guy, although Quentin's status in the American film industry is a little transcendent, but he still has to recognize the boss, the Weinstein brothers are still good to him, and he has also made a lot of contributions, but this time, ......
There are legal problems, and Liu Chao is not afraid!
"Is that you? It's you! By the way, you Chinese ......" Jon was going to go on, but......
***** Liu Chao came directly to say this!
All stupid!
How can this be a direct curse?
I just listened to Liu Chao continue, "You bastard, you idiot bastard!" You racist big fat pig! You a** guy who popped up...... What do you think? Are you still going to scold? I'll be there if you want to scold, and, I'm very clear, Jon, you've just racially racially discriminated against me, and all of you here can testify. ”
This one......
Yes, the word Chinese is not used casually, in the United States this is indeed a racist word, of course, on the American side, bullying Chinese is not a big problem, but after all, this is racial discrimination, if it really makes a big noise, then Jon is also a big celebrity, he really can't eat and walk around.
"You ......" Jon was scolded by Liu Chao because his blood pressure had increased a lot, he was already fat, he had high blood pressure and high blood lipids, anyway, he had the disease of a fat man, if he continued to scold, maybe he would burst his blood vessels directly, and he really didn't have any reason for this matter, so he had to say: "Okay, what I said before was wrong!" But ......"
This is simply gritting teeth, "Mr. Liu, do you admit that you plagiarized our new film "Titanic"?" ”
"Titanic" is a super big production, at the beginning of filming in 1994, it was already known to filmmakers around the world, and the investment of 200 million US dollars is currently the best in history.
"What do I admit?" But Liu Chao laughed and threw down such a sentence.
"You ......" Jon thought, he had never been so angry in his life!
Jon used to mix in Disney, and it was quite good, and now it's even more in the twentieth century Fox is like a fish in water, who doesn't give him some face in Hollywood?
But for now......
"Where did I copy something? Mr. Jon, can you tell us about that? What did I copy? Did your movie come out? Has your script ever leaked out? I can swear to the God of your faith that I have never seen the script of your movie by any means, so ...... No, isn't your movie a ship on the sea? I'm doing this space travel, it's a lot worse, isn't it...... That "Titanic" of yours also has a plot of ship repair? That's not right, I remember the accident in 1912, there was no such thing......"
What Liu Chao said is simply ......
Whew! Whew!
Jon was so angry that he gasped, but he was a smart man, and he immediately understood that this Liu Chao was really messing around.
"Just wait! You're going to go to court! ”
With such a sentence, Jon slammed the door and left.
And the person who stayed, Liu Chao...... He had a smile on his face.
