The fact that a movie caused such a sensation in the United States, and even directly paralyzed more than one-third of the tourism industry in the United States, not only shows the major success of the film, but also shows the strong influence and incitement of the film. Now more than sixty percent of families avoid choosing to go to the beach for vacations, Hawaii beaches are sparsely populated, Dacini Beach is crowded, not to mention other places, all tourist attractions that are close to the sea are directly deserted.

"It's a disaster!" The head of the U.S. Tourism Administration issued a statement angrily saying: "Jaws has deprived us of our golden vacation, we have been closed for the entire peak season, and all this was done by the Oriental and Spielberg, they should apologize, they should be responsible!" ”

"Well, I'll admit that Jaws is nothing more than a disaster movie that makes money on visual effects, and the chain reaction it caused when it was released was a disaster in itself."

Due to the bad impact of the incident, hundreds of travel agencies across the United States united in a general strike, resulting in the attractions that are not beaches also about to fall into a state of shutdown, and the directors' union received instructions from the political axe department to make Wang Xiaohu apologize on the surface.

Why apologize "on the surface", in fact, industry insiders can figure it out with their toes, Wang Xiaohu is now a major taxpayer in the United States, as a legal taxpayer Wang Xiaohu should be protected by the political axe, Wang Xiaohu just invested in a movie, and did not clearly indicate which beach attraction has a great white shark, not to mention that the beach in the film is from Australia and has a half-dollar relationship with the United States? No, if it weren't for the bad impact of the troubles, the US political axe would simply remain silent.

Even with such a brief apology, Wang Xiaohu was very aggrieved, and he said in an interview with reporters: "Guys, I originally only wanted to invest in making a money-making film, and I didn't even think about what kind of impact it would have on the audience, and I have never seen a film that can involve people in strong emotions like it." ”

"I would like to express my deep regret for this, and I would like to say to the directors of those travel agencies: if your beach attractions do not have great white sharks or other ferocious sea creatures, then you are lucky, this movie just reminds you that you should always treat customers as God when doing business, and when God is happy, we will be happy! If you have great white sharks there, very good, you will also be lucky, why not launch an operation to expel great white sharks, I believe that many citizens are very happy to participate, of course, be sure to organize a large group of people, but also pay attention to safety. ”

Before this, many Hollywood colleagues still wanted to see his liveliness, who knew that they had resolved the main contradiction in a few words, and even came up with a very energetic planning plan for those travel agencies!

As soon as the words fell, many people at the press conference left quickly, they were all representatives sent by the travel agency, and immediately reported the good news to their bosses after hearing this good plan, I have to say that Wang Xiaohu's plan is very inflammatory, it is foreseeable that a group of people in the United States who make a living from fishing will become the first batch of lucky people, and they will be hired by major beach attractions, directly appointed as the role of Brown, a shark catcher in "Jaws", leading the thrill-seeking travelers to gallop on the sea.

"Hey, see, Jaws isn't necessarily a disaster, it's even a new way to travel." When Wang Xiaohu apologized to reporters for an interview, it was already a month after the release of "Jaws", and at this time, the North American box office results of "Jaws" had reached 63 million US dollars, although it did not break the box office records left by "Rocky 1" and "Home Alone", but you must know that the director of "Jaws" is not Wang Xiaohu, it is the director of the rookie Spielberg, Wang Xiaohu only gave Spielberg a script and a sum of money.

"Jaws" has created several records in the history of Hollywood films, first of all, a large amount of investment, starting from the filming of the film, the production of mechanical sharks, the selection of Oscar-nominated actors, special effects production, music recording, etc., Wang Xiaohu smashed into 15 million without blinking, if you add the later TV promotion, poster publicity, etc., this amount has reached a terrifying 20 million, and more importantly: the money is completely taken out of Wang Xiaohu's own pocket, which is the main reason for the shock of his Hollywood colleagues.

You must know that such behavior was absolutely crazy at that time, even large companies such as Paramount, Warner, Universal, and 20th Century Fox did not dare to take risks, not to mention that a large investment of 20 million was smashed into a relatively unpopular movie theme, and it was so successful, except for a few people who have strong confidence in Wang Xiaohu's script, most of the others feel that Wang Xiaohu is playing with fire!

Facts have proved that Wang Xiaohu succeeded, not to mention the gold leaf earned at the box office, Spielberg also became a dazzling new star and emerged in the Hollywood directorial world.

After the reporter's interview, Spielberg excitedly said to Wang Xiaohu: "Boss, I feel that you should hold a celebration party." ”

"Huh? I'm not interested in drinking parties, I might as well go home and sleep if I have that kung fu. Wang Xiaohu yawned with little interest and said: "It doesn't matter if you want to hold it, after all, you can be on your own now, and there are still a lot of necessary entertainments that need to be carried out." ”

"Boss, you ......" Spielberg wanted to say and stopped, and the implication was: Boss, don't you need to socialize, after all, you are now in Hollywood.

"Steven, I think you're going to waste your words again!" George. Lucas came over and said, "Our boss was a guy who refused even the official Oscar celebration, and he didn't like this kind of occasion." ”

"Huh." Wang Xiaohu smiled, he could know that the two guys sang and squeezed themselves, but he didn't care, in Hollywood now, except for a few directors who must make friends, there are few stars he can look at, after all, he doesn't have much time to waste on hypocritical communication.

"Give you another ten days to deal with the matter here, and then you pack up the guys and go to Hong Kong with me, and we will go over there to work on the special effects shooting of "Shocking"."

After Wang Xiaohu finished yawning, he was about to flash, but he was stopped by Spielberg.

"Wait, boss, you seem to have forgotten something, haven't you?" Spielberg said with a look on his face.

Wang Xiaohu turned to look at him, frowned slightly and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"The script, the script for my next film! You promised to give it to me! But a month has passed, and you have never mentioned anything about the script! Spielberg was a little depressed.

Now he is not the hairy boy he used to be, "Jaws" made him an unprecedented success, and many people see Spielberg as an upstart. The waitress maître d'homage was fumbling with his clothes, which he might have bought from the K-Matt store, and the Mercedes, which had replaced the brown wrecked car he had bought during the filming of "Rampage," which was actually rented. During the meal, the waiter asked him to sit at the table next to the toilet. At lermitage, a fashionable restaurant in Los Angeles, Spielberg shrugged at the sight of Spielberg's long hair and called him a lady.

As a reward for the success of Jaws, Spielberg finally got the bungalow of his dreams, or half a bungalow, because he had to work with John. Milius shared the house. He added a large table with a tape lattice that was worth melting, and it looked extravagant. He added an AM/FM stereo radio, a computer, a nightlight, a sticky note, a mechanical pencil sharpener, a computer phone and a colour television. The TV, which shows people coming and going through the door, joked that he was corrupted to the point of taking a shower twice a day.

In fact, Wang Xiaohu rewarded Spielberg more than these on the surface, but Spielberg is used to the current life, and the bonuses given to him are all in the bank, and the most important thing for Spielberg now is: What will I shoot in my next movie, and will I still have the current sense of superiority?

Because Llywood has a reminder to newcomers, even the most successful, that Hollywood doesn't need any newcomers.

Now Wang Xiaohu is not only Spielberg's boss, but also a mentor, idol, and ultimate goal, Spielberg is now eager to take Wang Xiaohu as the ultimate goal and pursue the great sense of achievement he has obtained, so he has been dreaming about what kind of script Wang Xiaohu has prepared for him for a month.

"Ugh!" Wang Xiaohu patted his head and said: "Steven, my old fellow, I'm really sorry, I've been practicing space walking with Michael recently, you know, now Michael wants to fly solo, he's very worried about the future, he needs my help." ”

Wang Xiaohu did not lie, at this time Michael. Jackson has already had the idea of flying solo and is busy with his personal biography, at this juncture, Wang Xiaohu's arrival is undoubtedly the guiding light for his singing career. But our little tiger classmates know too little about Jackson, only studied the space step mechanical dance and a few classic songs, in addition, he doesn't interfere too much with Jackson, just let Little Jackson toss. But it's still fun to practice with Jackson every day.

"Well, there are two scripts, both of which are related to aliens." Wang Xiaohu rubbed his temples and said: "One is the script that I inadvertently mentioned to me two years ago, and I adapted and improved that script, but I want to remind you that this script involves a lot of political factors, and you may encounter a lot of trouble during the filming process." ”
