Although Ramsey is happy to be idle, she must be ready for many things at any time, otherwise, when something happens to Xiao Silin, she is not ready, and it will be a big disaster. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After the family affairs were busy, the next day, Lin Jingkang flew to Huhai City, and he left with him.
From the moment the Boeing 777 took off, the news of He Lao's departure from the mountain spread throughout the capital, and soon spread to Huhai City, Pengcheng and Guangzhou.
Real estate developers suddenly looked for their backers to discuss the upcoming predicament.
I hadn't been on a plane for a long time, and when He Lao got on the plane, his legs were trembling. Fortunately, Joseph's piloting skills are absolutely excellent, and the only thing that he can't stand is the tinnitus when he flies to a high altitude, which is especially embarrassing for him.
"Old man, I've said it all, let you put on earbuds or listen to songs with headphones, but you don't listen, now you know that you are guilty, right?"
The large bedroom on the second floor isolated the loud sound of the aircraft engine, making it very quiet, but He Lao was still very loud when he spoke, and Lin Jingkang's words could not be heard.
Therefore, the latter understands that He Lao is tinnitus.
He helped the old man put on his headphones, and soft music was playing in them, and then called someone in to help him rub his shoulders and relax the old man's body.
After two hours of flying in the air, when He Lao got off the plane, his face was as pale as snow, and the medical staff checked it on the side to confirm that it was okay, and then let him go.
"When I go back, I'll make the train!"
After sitting in the car for a while, the old man suddenly spoke, leaving Lin Jingkang stunned.
"No, I'll send you back when the time comes!"
Although the train is safe and the inspection is very strict, there are many people, Lin Jingkang is not at ease, and he is escorted by his own convoy, so I believe there is no big problem.
The sky of Huhai City is very blue today, cloudless, and it is a sunny day.
It is indeed extremely rare to have such weather in the cold winter, and many people take out the quilt to dry it and dry the mildew and bacteria.
The reason why the winter in the south is colder than in the north is that the humidity here is heavy, and the cold is the cold that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, which is more thorough than the dry cold in the north.
The old man has been in the capital for a long time, he has not been to the south of the Yangtze River for decades, and now he has arrived in Huhai City, wrapped in several clothes, and wrapped in a military coat outside, and still feels very cold.
Fortunately, Lin Jingkang's car has a heating supply, otherwise, if he stays outside for a long time, the old man's body will definitely not be able to stand it.
"He Lao, thank you for your hard work."
He was a little reluctant to go, if he hadn't invited He Lao out of the mountain, the latter wouldn't have suffered so much.
When He Lao heard this, he looked up at him and didn't say anything. After a long time, he sighed and said in a low voice: "Hard work is also a lifetime, and if you don't work hard, it will be the same life, alas, people, it's good to live freely." ”
Lin Jingkang didn't understand for a while, and asked what he meant, but the old man shook his head and continued to be silent, which gave him a headache.
Arranged the old man in the apartment on the top floor, he walked around casually, tsk, and sighed, but in the end he still didn't live here.
"I'm afraid of heights!"
As for whether he was afraid of heights, Lin Jingkang couldn't think deeply, since he didn't like to live here, he had to arrange him in a nearby hotel and send someone to protect him.
Jingkang Building, the chairman's office, and the reception room, Lin Jingkang looked at the tall white man sitting opposite, and was speechless for a while.
"JK, the price of 13 million is not low, in less than two years, you have earned 10 million, this investment is definitely appropriate."
The tall white man was not Michael, but Corio, the negotiator sent by Paramount, because Michael found Lin Zhiling first, and then didn't know what was going on, Paramount also learned the news and actually wanted to intervene, so there was today's scene.
Michael is one of Hollywood's top directors, and in the 90s, he made his film debut "Jedi Men", which grossed $160 million worldwide and became an A-list director.
Later, because of good movies such as "Brave Death Island" and "Peerless Tribulation", he dominated the box office list, and was a Hollywood box office dictator director on the same level as Spielberg and others.
Although, this year's "Jedi Men 2" directed by him barely earned $2.73 at the global box office because of the lack of novelty in the story, but it also did not disappoint investors, and making money is certain.
Therefore, his recent actions have already attracted the attention of people with intentions, especially Paramount, a giant who is trying to make a comeback, and he wants to pick up a bargain.
Paramount's past is very glorious, and in '03, it is in the trough.
Movies such as "Mission Impossible" and "Saving Private Ryan" are all business cards produced in recent years, but unfortunately the profits are not very optimistic.
I have to say that Shirley Lansing's means and abilities are very top-notch, but Paramount's own bloated institutions and aging management have dragged her down.
It is precisely because of this that Corioco appeared in front of Lin Jingkang.
"Mr. Corey, do you think I'm short of money?"
This damn bastard, Corio could hear it, and suddenly felt that his mouth was full of flies, and he smelled so bad that he was sick to death.
Pretending to be forced doesn't bring this, who else in the world can be richer than you?
Corio put on an ugly smile, "Dear JK, this is a business negotiation and has nothing to do with whether you have money or not. In less than two years since you invested in Transformers, you have made a profit of $10 million, and you have invested only $3 million, I have to praise you, you are really unique! ”
"Unfortunately, I don't need your praise, and besides, I don't lack this ten million dollars, so don't waste your words."
After negotiating like this, Corio's own lips were dry, so he glanced at Michael, who was sitting motionless next to him, and motioned for him to help talk.
Before leaving, Paramount had already discussed with Michael that if the Transformers copyright was obtained, the director would be him, and the agreed director's share would not change.
"JK, we're really very sincere, Transformers won't bring more profit in your hands, but Paramount..."
Seeing Michael speak, Corio rolled his eyes speechlessly, while Lin Jingkang raised his hand to stop the former's words.
"Michael, I'm very optimistic about this movie, and I'm going to invest in it, what I don't understand is that it can be shot with Hollywood's current technology?"
Technology is the key to Transformers, if the technology is not up to par, Lin Jingkang will never invest in shooting.
"I've tried it, and the investment amount may be relatively large, but there is no doubt that there is no problem with shooting, and I can guarantee that."
Compared to Cameron, Michael, a young driver, is more credible.
When the former was filming the big ship, the investment amount increased from the original 100 million US dollars to more than 200 million in the end, forcing the investors to almost sell their underwear, which is already the news of the bad street in later generations.
However, Hollywood directors are big liars, and if you easily believe the dialogue, in the end, you may lose without even bottoms.
Lin Jingkang didn't want to be deceived and bankrupt, so he reserved his opinion.
"Whether what you say is true or not, thank you very much for telling me the news."
"I wonder if you're interested in helping me make this movie?"
When the two white people on the opposite side heard this, they were stunned, this yellow man in front of him actually wanted to enter Hollywood? They heard you right, right?
Hollywood is not Wall Street, the water in it is even more unfathomable, and many foreign investors come here, but they can't even make a splash, and finally collapse and sink into the sand.
Although Lin Jingkang is the richest man in the world and has sufficient funds, if he is not careful, he will not be able to get rid of such a fate and follow in the footsteps of others.
"Really?"
Michael is naturally very happy, this handsome young man in front of him is a rich man, with his investment, needless to say, the problem that plagues Transformers will no longer be a problem.
Corio on the side was suddenly anxious and wanted to pull Michael out of here, but unfortunately the latter was not a marionette, how could he let the former get his way?
After some twists and turns, the former was blasted out of the office by Song Dingyi and them, while the latter watched him leave with a sneer, and then stayed to continue discussing with Lin Jingkang.
Compared with Paramount, who eats people and does not spit out bones, Michael trusts Lin Jingkang more, and the latter's perfect body shape and star face are also the best candidates for the protagonist of Transformers.
Even in Michael's eyes, choosing a white man as the protagonist is more reliable and more in line with the original book.
However, Transformers itself is an animation created by Hasbro, which was produced in collaboration with a company in Japan, and there is no conflict with the yellow race as the main character.
The most important thing is that the world's richest man starred in Hollywood movies, and the topic itself is particularly hot, giving fans a stronger sense of expectation.
In addition, Lin Jingkang himself is an actor, and he has acted in movies and TV series before, which is no stranger to the audience, and the box office appeal is also very optimistic.
Therefore, how to convince the other party to become the protagonist of this film, Michael feels that this is the problem he will deal with next.
"Of course it's true, what do you think?"
Lin Jingkang couldn't stand the other party's suddenly hot eyes, and thought, the other party can't have bad thoughts about himself, right?
Thinking of this, he suddenly shuddered, and shuddered.
"Of course, there is no problem with this, but how do you think my directorial fee should be calculated?"
It's Michael's habit to determine how much he's paid before talking about work, because it's the key to whether or not he's involved in the next topic.
"How much do you think you should take?"
After kicking the ball back to the opponent, Lin Jingkang continued to drink tea leisurely, anyway, he was not in a hurry.
When Michael heard this, he was immediately silent, if he said too much, the other party would definitely not agree, if it was less, he himself was unwilling, but if he wanted to say a specific data, he didn't know how much to say, which was really embarrassing.
