Speaking of which, Ke Zihua, who has been a man in two lives, has never had such a good feeling.

In his previous life, he was just an orphan, and no one would like him at this age, but by the time he became famous in Hollywood, he had long been insulated from love.

was sighing at the beauty of his first love, and a hurried phone call dragged him back to reality, and he looked down at the phone that turned out to be the black director John, "Hey, John, what's the matter?" ”

John's dissatisfied voice came from the other side of the phone: "Hey, Ke, I've been calling you since the afternoon, haven't you received any of them?" ”

"Sorry, I didn't have my phone with me, what's wrong?"

John's love became very fast, and when he heard Ke Zihua ask him, he immediately became emotional: "Haha, Ke, guess what?" ”

Ke Zihua couldn't help John's childish character, so he had to continue to ask: "John, just say it directly, what is the matter?" ”

"Good news to you! When Paul returned to HQ, he complimented you and rewrote the research report and market review, so the company decided to increase its investment! ”

"Guess what, how much?"

This is indeed good news, the original production cost of this film was less than 10 million US dollars, which was barely a big production at the time, and even if you add in the publicity expenses and other expenses, the total investment will never exceed 20 million US dollars.

Although the total investment of 20 million US dollars is not much, compared with those "independent films", it can definitely be called a big production.

In my memory, at this time, Hollywood's film industry was being monopolized by the "eight major film companies". A series of operations such as the shooting and distribution of a film must follow the "producer system" with strict steps.

The goal of this "producer system" is completely aimed at the market, and its ultimate goal is to obtain maximum profits, which is also known as "commercial films". Although this system brings a lot of money to the film industry, it also limits the space for film creators to play.

Therefore, some filmmakers have raised their own funds, even written their own scripts, and served as their own directors, making many films with strong ideas that are completely different from commercial films, which are called "independent films".

These "independent films" do not belong to any film group, company or studio in terms of capital investment and production, and mainly rely on the producers or directors themselves to raise funds through various channels, even including personal funding.

Therefore, in terms of capital investment and distribution, it is not as good as those "commercial films" that often invest tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars, but it does not mean that "independent films" do not have large-scale productions, but they are just very few.

And the vast majority of those who rely on the film industry to survive and have a large population base do not have the opportunity to participate in the large-scale production, which is why Lewis spares no expense and strives for opportunities.

These days, Ke Zihua has also thought about his career path, although it seems that the development is not bad for the time being, but he knows that stuntmen are a business that eats youth rice, and it is impossible for him to eat this bowl of rice all the time.

Although he is still uncertain, this is still not the world he is familiar with, but at least the trajectory of this world is almost exactly the same as that world.

So why not do something with what you have in your head?

He also has the ambition to create a time that belongs to him!

It's just that the food has to be eaten one bite at a time, and the high-rise building is by no means built by fantasy, and after solving the initial small troubles, he also has to make a plan for his future.

And the most suitable path for him is "independent film"!

He's going to make his own movie!

John, who was on the other end of the phone, couldn't hear Ke Zihua's answer after waiting for a long time, and asked a little angrily: "Hey, man, are you listening?" ”

Ke Zihua hurriedly put down his thoughts and replied: "I'll listen, tell me, how much investment has been added?" ”

"Twenty million, haha, they increased their investment by a full twenty million!"

"Although the production fee has only increased by 10 million, it is enough for me to finish the film."

"Ke, give full play to your imagination, as long as you dare to think, I dare to let you shoot!"

In addition to being happy, Ke Zihua was more concerned about practical issues, and after congratulating John, he asked: "John, can you give me a part of my remuneration first, you know that I urgently need a sum of money now." ”

John boldly agreed, "No problem! Tomorrow you will come to the set to get a check from me, and the latest script will also come out, so let's study it together. ”

"Alright then, see you tomorrow, John."

"See you tomorrow, don't be so excited that you can't sleep, haha."

Putting down the phone, Ke Zihua talked to everyone again, and then went back to sleep after eating something casually, although the breakthrough felt good, but it did exhaust him.

The next day, Ke Zihua did not get up early as usual, but slept until nine o'clock before getting up, washed up and went to the practice room to look at Cicero, and went out to the set after a few instructions.

This is a film and television base set up by Paramount in South Vancouver, and it took him two hours to take a bus from North Vancouver to the set in South Vancouver.

The film has been filming for several days, and because some of the equipment for location shooting has not yet arrived, it is still mainly shooting indoor scenes.

Because he hasn't filmed an action scene yet, he didn't have anything to do with Ke Zihua, John invited him to come to the set to take a look, but Ke Zihua didn't come for the first time until today.

"Hey, we don't recruit extras here, let's find a chance to go to another set."

Ke Zihua came to the main gate of the base, and was just about to enter when he was stopped by the security guard at the door. Only then did he realize that he hadn't applied for a pass for the first time, so he quickly explained: "Hello, my name is Ke Zihua, and I am the action director of "Killing Police". ”

After saying that, Ke Zihua walked inside, not wanting this white man in his forties to guard and not let him go, but squinted at him, and said contemptuously: "Action director? Just you? ”

"Hurry up and get out, otherwise don't blame me for being rude, it's just wishful thinking to get away with me."

Ke Zihua frowned, and he didn't blame others for thinking about it, he didn't have a pass, "Let's call John." ”

But he reached out and touched his pocket, but found that he forgot to bring his phone when he came out, so he had to explain to the security guard again: "I'm really the action director of this film, don't you believe you can call John and ask?" ”

"Ask a fart! Damn yellow-skinned monkey, stinky ****, get out of here! ”

Ke Zihua was still talking to him with a pleasant face, but he didn't expect that this white guard would do it when he said that he would do it, and he was about to push him outside with a scolding attitude.

"It's you damn yellow-skinned monkeys who robbed me of my job and divorced my wife."

But with him as an ordinary person, how could he get close to Ke Zihua's body?

Seeing Ke Zihua make a flash, he turned behind him, and the fat and stupid white guard couldn't hold back, just tripped over a small stone and fell into the mud, and worse, his mouth fell on the long stone on the shoulder of the road (the road teeth).

For a long time, the white guards did not stand up, and then they saw blood all over the ground, and there were two yellowed front teeth next to them.

Ke Zihua is most disgusted by people like him, who don't know that they will complain about others if they lose their jobs after hard work, and even evolve into strong racial discrimination, in fact, they are just venting their own dissatisfaction.

Although it was because of his dodge that the white guard would stumble and fall, at this moment he not only did not feel any guilt, but was very calm.

Standing aside like this, watching the white guard struggle to get up, then took out the baton on his waist and wanted to do it again, hesitated for a while, and then lowered his raised arm, and then ignored the knocked out front teeth, but turned around and walked into the police booth to grab the phone and call the police.

"Hey, I'm going to call the police, there's someone here!"

In less than five minutes, a police car roared up, and two white policemen got out of the car, and after seeing the situation here, they pulled out their pistols and aimed them at Ke Zihua, who was standing on the side of the road.

One of them walked straight at him with a gun in his hand and drank, "Don't move! （Don＇tmove）”

The policeman who followed him came up from the other side, "Put your hand where I can see!" （Putyourhandswhereicanseethem）”

There was no way, Ke Zihua had no choice but to hold his head in his hands, obediently squatted on the ground, and then let the two policemen handmail him into the police car.

Seeing that Ke Zihua was accused by the police, the white guards suddenly came to their senses, pointed to a large pool of blood on the ground and knocked out their front teeth, and told them what had happened.

"That's him! He has extreme violent tendencies! Mr. Policeman, look at me being punched like this by him, and such a dangerous person must be severely punished! ”

The two policemen who didn't know the truth were also frightened by his words, and hurriedly separated one person and turned back to the police car to guard Ke Zihua.

Another policeman listened to the white guard tell the story as he pulled out a notebook to record it.

Director John was leading the actors to film at this time, and when he heard the whistling of the police car outside, he opened the shutters on the window and looked outside, just in time to see Ke Zihua being escorted into the police car by two policemen.

So he hurriedly threw down the actor who was preparing and rushed to the stairs, he must not let the police take Ke Zihua away, that is his action director!

The actors were also frightened by the director's actions, and quickly put down what they were doing and ran with John to the stairs.

But before they could run to the stairs, they saw John running back again, panting and pointing to a fierce-looking black actor in the lead, and ordered: "Samuel, you take people to the main gate, and you must stop the police and prevent them from taking people away!" ”

Samuel asked, puzzled, "John, what happened?" ”

"Damn, our action director was arrested by the police!"

The moment he saw Ke Zihua being locked in the police car, a thought flashed in his mind,

"It must have been Ke Zihua who attacked the guard!"

Although he didn't believe that Ke Zihua would do anything to the guards, the police had already locked him in the police car, so he had to go to the duty room to look at the surveillance video and then find a way to solve it.
