Chapter 708: A One-Year Promise
The producers of the six major Hollywood film groups, who were originally disdainful of the crew of "The Undertaker", quietly came over during the awards ceremony and greeted Gu Xiaofan and Chen Keer one by one. γReading.comγ
"Hello, I'm Eisen Jetbo, the producer of Columbia, this is my business card, Director Gu, are you interested in working with our company."
"I'm Charlie Babbitt, the production manager at Paramount, do you have plans for your next film? If you want, you can leave it to Paramount to issue it. β
"Director Gu, I'm Barry Bass from Disney, and I hope we can work together ......"
As soon as the wind changed, the giants had changed their attitudes and began to try to contact Black Feather Studio.
Chen Ke'er smiled politely and accepted the business card, and whispered to Gu Xiaofan over and over again: "You are really a good trick, such a high-profile provocation, so that the six congresses have no way to avoid you this time, and it also increases our value." β
At the moment when Gu Xiaofan won the "Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film" and announced his "Performance Award" declaration, the media blocking alliance built by Warner against Gu Xiaofan has collapsed, and the Big Six have begun to make their own calculations.
The situation that Black Feather Studio is facing now is very different from before, and it can be described as a new look.
Gu Xiaofan smiled back at Chen Ke'er and said: "I don't think my plan has any effect, these producers seem to have no weight, otherwise you wouldn't be so cold to them." β
"Of course, although you are worth a performance today, we are still only rookies in Hollywood, and we are far from qualified to negotiate terms with the Big Six." Chen Keer didn't overestimate their strength, these people who came were all second- and third-tier issuers in the six majors......
"So, Warner is where we really belong." Gu Xiaofan's eyes were shining: "I won't let others lead me by the nose." "His goal is very clear, he doesn't want to be subservient to others, and he wants to build his own film and television kingdom.
Saying that, Gu Xiaofan walked to Zhou Yanfa's side, lowered his head and said softly: "Brother Fa, I put you on the table to say those words just now, without your consent beforehand, I hope you don't mind." β
"Where~ Director Gu is raising my worth." Zhou Yan stepped forward and smiled: "If you don't mention it today, others don't know that I'm here, my trip is much more beautiful than the last time in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". β
Facing Zhou Yanfa's generosity, Gu Xiaofan was extremely moved and nodded: "Brother Fa, I will fulfill my promise, but I'm afraid that I need Brother Fa you to spend more than a year preparing for a role." β
As he spoke, Gu Xiaofan took out his mobile phone and passed the document to Zhou Yanfa's mailbox, Zhou Yanfa took out his mobile phone and looked at the name and outline of "Bursting Drummer", and said with a slight stunned:
"Do you want me to play the conductor?"
"Yes, so you need to prepare." Gu Xiaofan looked at him deeply: "The Oscar of the year after tomorrow, I will definitely give Brother Fa what you deserve, I hope Brother Fa can believe me, and I am willing not to take on other work during this time and concentrate on preparation." β
Zhou Yanfa glanced at him deeply, where can he not feel the ambition in his heart, Gu Xiaofan, a junior, has such ambition, how can he retreat as a banner figure in the Chinese performance industry, he also squinted his eyes and smiled: "Okay, I will take this scene." β
When Gu Xiaofan heard this, he was also relieved, he had been in a state of emotion before, but at this time he could be regarded as relaxed, and suddenly felt a strange scream in his stomach, and hurriedly said to Chen Ke'er next to him:
"Sister Kerr, the task of reception is left to you...... I'll go first, it's convenient, oops~ I'm about to suffocate ~"
After speaking, he bowed down and walked outside the seat in an extremely awkward posture, and hurriedly trotted to the bathroom.
Chen Ke'er looked at Gu Xiaofan, who was still heroic just now, and turned back into an embarrassed bastard boy in an instant, and suddenly felt a little trance, I really didn't understand which of his faces was the real him.
Gu Xiaofan arrived in the corridor of the Dolby Theater, searched for a few laps before finding the toilet, rushed in directly to find a squatting position, and unbuttoned his pants to relax.
Just now, he had a string tightened, and he seemed to be very calm and calm, but in fact, it was the first time to participate in such a big scene, and he was already nervous with stomach cramps.
Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but scold in his heart, alas, it's strange that he was imprisoned at the Hong Kong Academy Awards last time, and he didn't have the opportunity to participate, this time he will directly participate in the Oscars, which makes me still a little panicked in my heart, after all, I am still young, and I don't see much in the world.
Just as I was feeling it, I heard the sound of leather shoes on the ground outside the cubicle, and about 2 or 3 people came in.
A familiar voice sounded outside: "Alas, I didn't expect that this Gu Xiaofan could win 3 awards this time...... Mr. Edward, do you think we Fox really need to recruit him? β
Gu Xiaofan was stunned, he has always needed to identify people by his voice because the actor's face has been changed in the system, so he is very sensitive to voices, as soon as this person speaks, he knows that this voice has been heard, and he doesn't know many Americans, and after a little thought, he remembers who it is.
Isn't this the guy who fought with him in the Chinese summer, Ed Wharton, president of Columbia Asia Pacific?
Wasn't this guy fired from Sony Columbia? Looks like I've found a new job at Fox again.
I heard another man named Edward say: "Of course, I have seen the movies directed by Gu Xiaofan, he is really very good, and the performance is also good, I think his directing achievements will be close to Ang Lee, and in terms of performance, it is very likely that he will become a leading figure of Asian actors like Chen Long in the future." β
This person's voice is very young, probably in his 30s, his voice is gentle and rich, very magnetic, just listening to him speak, it makes people feel that he has an extraordinary bearing, and Gu Xiaofan heard that Ed Wharton was extremely respectful to him, so he guessed that this person should be not small......
However, hearing that this Edward spoke highly of himself, Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but be a little interested in him, at least this person has a good eye.
At this time, an old man with a voice next to him said disapplausively: "It's just a Chinese, saying that he wants to perform English works to win performance awards, I see that he is joking." β
Ed Wharton's voice sighed, "Mr. Stan, you don't know him, Gu Xiaofan is different from everyone else. β
Stan...... Fox ...... Old man...... Gu Xiaofan listened, and soon a person sounded, Stan Lee, the "father of superheroes" in the United States, a master cartoonist, and a film screenwriter......
Gu Xiaofan's heart was suddenly shocked, this is a great figure in Hollywood, these people are talking about themselves, it's really funny
