"Attend the charity dinner held by the Hong Kong Performing Artists Association tonight, go to Phoenix Satellite TV tomorrow to be interviewed by a program, and then the ticket to Beijing has been prepared for you, Beijing Film Academy invites you to visit and investigate, of course, you have to go to Japan on the 21st to attend the promotional activities of the Japanese premiere of "Impunity" "

The first time he saw Xiansen, Bellamaso forced an itinerary into his hand, then ignored the pitiful eyes on the other side, pushed the toad mirror that could cover half of his face, and kept saying in his mouth: "Don't talk yet, I know what you're going to ask, that's right, when you finish that paragraph at the premiere of "Get Away" After the presentation, I knew you were going to do something unexpected, so I hired a bodyguard in advance to protect you in the shadows, from Los Angeles to Hong Kong, and of course, with his professionalism you wouldn't have found out about his existence. ”

Hearing Bellamaso say that someone had been following him, Xiansen subconsciously looked around, but after looking around, he couldn't find any suspicious person.

"Are you protecting or tracking?"

Xiansen stuffed the schedule in his hand into his coat pocket, then pointed to the driver standing aside and said, "So, he was also sent by you?" ”

Bellamarso nodded and explained, "His surname is Fang, a veteran of the Hong Kong garrison, I asked him to pick you up and take you back to the hotel, and he will be responsible for your safety in Hong Kong 10." ”

"Hehe, you're really thoughtful."

Xiansen's emotions are a little complicated, he hates the feeling of being followed secretly but doesn't know anything, and he doesn't like to participate in those dense activities, although he knows very well that everything Bella Marceau arranged is for his own work and the future of Black Hole Film Studio, and he also knows that it was really a bit willful to run from the United States to Hong Kong without saying a word, so he didn't speak again, just obediently stuffed the schedule into his coat pocket, and then hooked his hand towards Chen Fala who was still a little at a loss. Opened the green and white taxi door and sat in the back with Chen Fala.

Seeing Xiansen get into the car, Bellamaso smiled, skillfully sat in the co-pilot's position, and then said to the driver next to him: "Go to the Peninsula Hotel." ”

The taxi followed the black Bentley and drove smoothly towards the Kowloon Peninsula, Xiansen didn't say a word along the way, he just closed his eyes, silently thinking about something. Chen Fala looked at Bella Marso sitting in the co-pilot for a while, and then looked at Xiansen next to him, wanting to say something but never dared to speak. As for Bella Marceau, her attention was always on the notebook in her hand, and from time to time she would take a pen to revise and revise on it.

A little over 10 minutes later, the car stopped in front of the Peninsula Hotel, the oldest surviving hotel in Hong Kong and one of the most luxurious and famous hotels in Hong Kong and the world.

Xiansen had little interest in what hotel to stay in, so he got out of the taxi, looked at Bellamarso and asked, "Which room do I stay in?" I'm tired and want to go take a break. ”

“301。 This is your room card, I'll call you at six o'clock in the evening. ”

Bellamaso took out an electronic proximity card from his pocket, handed it to Xian Sen and said with a smile: "I know you're angry right now, but there is one thing I have to make clear. Your time is no longer just yours, cinema is a money-burning art, and you should know that Black Hole Studios needs a lot of money to develop. ”

"Bella. Tell me, is there something wrong? ”

Xiansen could detect a slight impatience in Bellamarceau's tone, and he had a clear division of labor with Bellamarso after setting up this studio. That is, he only makes movies, and he does not interfere in the operation of the studio, so he does not know if there is a crisis in the Black Hole Studio.

"The problem is that we have a serious shortage of reserve funds, you know, we signed a box office sharing agreement with DreamWorks, which stipulated that the promotion cost of "Impunity" would be divided equally between both parties, but we seriously underestimated DreamWorks' publicity attitude, and their consumption in the publicity and distribution link was so great that it was still a little tight after using our studio's reserve funds, and the next inflow of funds from the studio had to wait for the end of the movie release two months later. But you know, because of the willfulness of some people, the Kennedy family has been causing us problems right now, and if something happens in these two months, we won't have enough money to fill the hole, so I need more income. ”

"I still have a sum of money in my bank, see if it's first"

Before Xiansen's words could be spoken, he was interrupted by Bellamaso.

"You can't take such a risk, that money is used to invest in the shooting of the next movie, and the studio can start again when it is gone, but the filming funds for the film must not be less, I have asked the contracted artists under the studio to participate in various activities in the United States, and I think I can also get a good commission."

Bella Marceau resolutely made a negative statement, this attitude made Xiansen more and more ashamed, the film studio carries more than just his dreams, when everyone is working hard for this crisis, he is the only one resting

"Bella, I'm sorry, me"

Xiansen wanted to say sorry, but was stopped by Bella Marceau, only to see her hand the notebook in her hand to Xiansen, and said: "The studio has recruited a new batch of screenwriters, these people are very expensive, they used to work in HBO TV, and now they have several new stories, I think it's good, the script is here, you can see if you are satisfied." ”

Xiansen took the notebook, and before he could open it, he heard Bellamarso continue: "I heard you say that you want to go around the world, and I agree with your point of view, so this is your propaganda task for the next few months, I helped you pick South Korea, Hungary, Portugal, France, Brazil, Poland, and the United Kingdom, I hope you are satisfied." ”

After speaking, Bella Marceau took off her glasses, walked to Chen Fala, who had been standing next to her, reached out and hooked Chen Fala's chin, and said with a smile: "You are the newcomer who just signed a contract?" Good looking, good, congratulations, your first job is just tonight. ”

"Be the director's dance partner?"

Chen Fala was a little afraid of Bella Marceau, but she couldn't help but whisper.

"Very smart, I probably know why Miste signed you, there are fewer and fewer beautiful and intelligent actresses now"
