Chapter 286: To the South Island Again
No matter how much you don't want to admit it, Hollywood is the center of the world's films, and this small place produces half of the world's films.
Especially when it comes to big productions, Hollywood has a monopoly. Similar to France and Germany, it is more in the field of independent films and small and medium-budget films. Without the capital support of Wall Street, you can't afford to play big investment and big production!
Whether or not you can enter the Hollywood film industry is basically an important reference criterion for judging the price of domestic actors. People's desires, hopes and self-motivation are unlimited, especially in the entertainment industry, a place that pays special attention to status and status.
is accustomed to the limelight, and a few can face it calmly.
There are only a few people in China who can have the opportunity to participate in Hollywood, most of which are caused by the increasing activity of domestic capital, and there are not many who really have the strength and conquest power.
All the stick people are touted as national actors, and if they can have some lines and close-ups, it will make the stick people orgasm for a long time.
However, Brother Chen Long starred in 9 Hollywood movies in the United States as a Chinese, and he was the star, not the participant. One of the Rush Moments series briefly landed Chen in the $20 million club.
20 million US dollars, which is almost the highest salary in the entire Hollywood. When domestic film investment has not exceeded this figure, Chen Long's salary alone exceeded the film with the highest investment in China.
Especially in the influence of Asia, since the eighties of the last century, almost every movie of Chen Long has swept Asia, and there are too many fans of Chen Long. It was at a time when Austronesian cinema was leading Asia and competing directly with Hollywood.
The film industry in the South Island began to decline in the late 90s, and after entering the new century, with the rise of the inland economy and a large number of talents coming to the inland to make money, the film industry in the South Island has not moved. Swan songs like "Infernal Affairs" can be sung and cried.
Du Jiayi had contact with Brother Chen Long very early, and during the charity gala last year, Du Jiayi once auctioned Chen Long's donations at the highest price in the audience, so they became acquainted.
Last time I went back to Nandao to receive the award, Brother Chen Long also helped a lot. If he hadn't found so many celebrities from the South Island to support the scene, a group of old men from the crew of "Crazy Stone" would have to walk the red carpet awkwardly.
Brother Chen Long has some flaws in other aspects, but there is absolutely nothing to say about the righteousness of the buddies. What's more, making a movie this time is also the largest investment in the history of China, presumably the eldest brother will not refuse.
However, the most famous feature of Brother Chen Long is that he wants to save face, and Du Jiayi has to go to invite him personally.
……
There is a big contrast from the last time Du Jiayi came to the South Island, and there is no prosperity at that time.
It may be that it has entered the off-season of tourism, or it may be that Du Jiayi made a big fuss at the beginning, causing the mainland to be reluctant to travel here. Or, when the inland economy continues to develop, people's horizons have become much broader, and they will not be limited to such a large place as the South Island.
After all, Tyrande is more exotic, the cost is not high, and the attitude towards tourists is good, which is indeed a better choice.
Brother Chen Long is still filming an action movie, which happens to be an important stage of the end, so he didn't come in person, but he brought his son Xiaofang to pick him up.
Du Jiayi and Xiaofang belong to the same age and have a lot of common topics, and the communication between the two is much more familiar than that of Brother Chen Long.
"The hotel is all arranged, let's go back to the hotel to rest first, my dad arranged an event in the evening!" Xiaofang squeezed his brows at Du Jiayi.
This so-called activity is probably very much in line with men's activities. Brother Chen Long can play, the small room is imperceptible, or even better, in terms of playing, he plays more openly than the eldest brother.
The eldest brother is generous, so naturally he will not treat Du Jiayi who came from afar, and booked the best hotel on the island, which is still the presidential suite.
"Don't have too much contact with him, he doesn't look like a serious person!" Ai Jinmeng couldn't help but say after leaving the small room.
"Jealous?"
"Jealous, what am I jealous of?" Ai Jin said stiffly.
"I'll take you with me then, and you'll be in charge of overseeing it." Du Jiayi said nonchalantly.
Both father and son can play, if Du Jiayi doesn't take Ai Jinmeng with him, who knows if he will find a few girls to accompany him, the key is that Du Jiayi can't refuse at that time.
With Ai Jinmeng, it's good to block some unnecessary communication.
In the face of Du Jiayi's generosity, Ai Jinmeng couldn't help but think a little more.
"It's not good for me to go, after all, it's a gathering of men." Ai Jinmeng said uncertainly.
"It's nothing bad, let you go and feed it, it's a time to push?" Du Jiayi said as he opened the notebook for work.
This time I came to the South Island, in addition to talking about the movie with Brother Chen Long, I also needed to get in touch with the famous Standard Chartered Bank in the South Island.
After selecting most of the world's chip CPU companies, Yijia Electronics gave up Intel, which is now popular and almost all computer mainstream, and instead targeted ARM (long) chip companies located in the United Kingdom and with less than 10% share in the mainstream market.
And one of the major shareholders of this chip company is Standard Chartered Bank. Standard Chartered Bank operates in many countries, while there are very few customers in the UK. Standard Chartered is listed on the London Stock Exchange and the South Island Stock Exchange and is one of the three note-issuing banks in the South Island.
It can be said that the operation of various capital in the South Island is absolutely inseparable from Standard Chartered Bank, and Du Jiayi also tried to contact Standard Chartered Bank to see if he could help complete the acquisition of ARM (long) or obtain technology patent authorization.
ARM is also under the encirclement of Intel, occupying 10% of the market share, and its professionalism is unquestionable. What's more, there are only two companies in the world with relevant technology patents, and the company's market value is also billions of dollars.
The information obtained from a professional investigation company on the various levels of the South Island distribution of Standard Chartered Bank was constantly flipped on Du Jiayi's computer screen. Du Jiayi didn't want to contact people without being prepared like he did last time. In a place where the mall is like a battlefield, rash action will definitely be played by a group of old foxes.
Fortunately, the capitalism practiced in the South Island allows you to find out whatever you want as long as you spend money, and there is no question of whether it is secret or not. In this place where public figures have no privacy, they are willing to spend money, and even when the other party goes to the toilet can be found out. (To be continued.) )
