Chapter 50: Hype

Previous Chapter

When he went to work the next morning, Huo Que still came to the company on time, but the moment he entered the company, he felt that something was wrong, yes, something was wrong. He remembers when he walked into the company, everyone who saw him would give him a kind smile or say hello.

Today, the employees will smile when they see him, and they will say hello, but their eyes are not right, how to say, the smile on him is not the previous flat or slight respect, but a slightly meaningful smile but not a smile, which made him very uncomfortable, so he had to quickly walk into his office.

Not long after, Alex walked in from his office, and reported a large pile of newspapers in his hand, Huo Que squinted his eyes, and just saw a striking photo on a certain newspaper, it was nothing else, it was the scene where Fanny took Huo Que's hand and walked into the restaurant last night.

"Master!" The smile on Alex's face is a bit similar to the smile of all the employees today: "I got such a big beauty in just a few hours, and I still snatched it from the hands of the son of the dignified Valentine family, and my impression of you has changed drastically now." ”

"I think you're mistaken." Huo Que was a little embarrassed, he always felt that what Alex said to him was not a compliment.

Alex waved his hand: "Misunderstanding what?" It's normal for young people to be romantic, not to mention that this kind of scandal is good for both you and your movie. ”

"Looks like she did help me." Huo Que laughed at himself: "I'm wondering what kind of performance it would be if she knew that I had some misunderstanding with this boy before." ”

"Then you should pay attention, that son of the Valentine family is a well-known gentleman." Alex reminded, "And you're stingy, otherwise you'd be doing well at Lionsgate right now." ”

"Is there any mention of my film in the newspaper?" Huo Que asked. For him, it doesn't matter if he can become famous, or in what way he becomes famous, what matters is how much box office "Home Alone" can win and whether it can become next year's box office champion?

"Basically, no." Alex lit a cigar: "But it doesn't matter, anyway, your purpose has been achieved, and the purpose of that little girl has also been achieved, and it is only the son of the Valentine family who is injured." ”

"I didn't expect me to make headlines because of my films." Huo Que smiled: "Do you think it's better to end the scandal, or to continue?" ”

"It depends on whether you have a crush on that girl." Alex looked at Huo Que seriously and reminded: "But whether you have a good impression of her or not, it's best not to have hope for her, to say something unpleasant, this kind of smart woman is not suitable for you." ”

"I know that." Huo Que squinted and thought for a while: "I always feel that this kind of star who eats by scandals is not a real star, this kind of propaganda will never appear on me after this movie, I will use my movie to prove myself." ”

Alex glanced at Huo Que meaningfully, and the smoke from his mouth swirled around his face, adding a sense of mystery to him, and he said for a long time: "If you are in the circle, don't want to stay out of it, this is the characteristic of this circle." ”

"Alright, let him go." Huo Que said heartily: "My only requirement is to be my director and screenwriter." ”

"Come less." Alex glanced at Huo Que: "You have to be your boss, don't ******** focus on your director, this is your company." ”

"No, no, no......" Huo Que waved his hand again and again: "I'm not good at being the boss, and the company will leave it to you to deal with, but don't worry, the company's film business will be handed over to me, and I will not let the company down." ”

"It's kind of like a military order." Alex smiled: "I believe in your talent in the field of film, I have read all your registered scripts during this time, and the richness of my imagination really makes me jaw-dropping, especially the creativity of several horror films is particularly charming, if it is adapted into a novel, it will definitely sell well." Are you going to shoot all these scripts? ”

"How can I have that much time?" Huo Que shook his head helplessly: "I will choose some of these scripts to shoot, and leave the other scripts to other directors." ”

"What the hell is in your head?" Alex glanced at Huo Que with interest and said jokingly.

"Write more scripts while I'm young." The script is expensive.

The script is indeed very expensive, and in the previous life, as long as the Hollywood film company saw a better idea, they would immediately buy it, because if you didn't buy it, it might be bought by another company the next day.

Huo Que remembers most that there is a homeless man who has been wandering for more than 20 years in Hollywood, USA, who sold his life's experience to a certain film company and got a salary of 200,000 US dollars.

This is Hollywood, the Hollywood where creativity and scripts are life.

"If the company has enough money, I can start making my second film right away." Huo Que shook his head with some regret, if he just wants to make money, then just shoot a few popcorn series, if he just wants to be famous, then he can just choose a few of the top 20 movies on IMDB. He doesn't simply want to make money, nor does he simply want to be famous, but because he loves movies, and he sees movies as his life's work.

Therefore, he wants to make more excellent and good films in more fields for people in this world to enjoy, life is short, and he doesn't want to waste time with a flick of his fingers.

"Bang Bang ......"

The two were chatting happily when there was a knock on the door, and it was loud.

Huo Que glanced at Alex, and then the two of them woke up suddenly, as if they had guessed who the person outside the door was, Huo Que hurriedly put down his leg on the desk, and Alex extinguished the cigar in his hand in a panic, and used his hand to disperse the smoke that did not drift.

"Please come in!" Huo Que put his hands on the desk, looking serious.

"Click!" The door was pushed open, and a graceful figure appeared at the door, Alice's cold and arrogant eyes swept around the office, I don't know who provoked her, and her face was very ugly. She walked quickly to Huo Que, and without saying hello to her uncle, she slammed the large stack of newspapers she was holding on the desk...... The photos of Huo Que and Fanny are very eye-catching.

Huo Que looked at Alex awkwardly, smiled a little ugly, and wanted to say something but couldn't open his mouth.

"Alice is looking for Huo Que, you talk, I'll go first." Ignoring Huo Que's feelings, Alex was ready to withdraw first.

"Shameless!"

Alice finally spoke, her already high chest may have been because of the ups and downs of anger, she glanced at Alex coldly, and snorted coldly: "I dare to guarantee that you came up with this ghost idea." ”

"This ...... No. Alex organized the wording: "The situation at that time was very complicated, not to mention that this was also a kind of propaganda, Huo Que sacrificed something, but it was undoubtedly good for "Home Alone". ”

"Yes." Huo Que echoed: "It's nothing for me to sacrifice for "Home Alone". ”

"Hehe......" Alice sneered: "Nothing? What do you think it's nothing? Amusing. ”

Alice crossed her hands around her chest, looking like she was going to have a big fight, while Huo Que and Alex could only sit there and wait to be scolded. Of course, Huo Que could choose to leave, because Alice was only one of his subordinates, but he couldn't go, not only Alice was Alex's niece, but the most important thing was that Alice shared a lot of things with him.

"If you think that a movie needs to be hyped up with women's things to be successful, then I think you are insulting the movie." Alice was indignant: "The reason why I am willing to be your assistant for free is because I watched your "This Man from the Earth" and felt that your movie has a soul, a mind, and a creativity, so I think you are also a thought, but I didn't expect that you still can't escape the clichΓ© and want to use this way to hype your own movie." ”

"Angry youth!" Huo is lacking in belly.

"I resign." Alice said unusually firmly: "I will not waste time with a director who has no confidence in his own films. ”
