George. Wilson's bar is located in a remote part of Hollywood, and the bar has a very ordinary appearance, a small two-story building made of red brick walls, and a huge projector sign hanging on the top, which is particularly meaningful. [Full text reading]

It wasn't very busy when the two of them arrived at the bar, and after finding a secluded corner and sitting down, George. Wilson called the waiter and asked for two beers: "It is estimated that in ten minutes, the business here will be busy, and those directors will come together, I don't know if they will meet people like Francis. Ford. A heavyweight like Coppola. ”

Wang Xiaohu knows Francis. Ford. Coppola is the director of "The Godfather", although he also regards "The Godfather" as an immortal classic, but that kind of film is not what Wang Xiaohu likes to shoot, he pays more attention to commercial blockbusters, like "Titanic", "Harry Potter", "The Lord of the Rings" and other films that have been hit by the global box office.

When the beer was almost gone, the door of the bar was suddenly pushed open, and I saw five or six people laughing and walking to the front of the bar, sitting there casually chatting, Wang Xiaohu raised his eyes and found that he was all bearded, and he was a little embarrassed to touch his clean chin that he had shaved before going out.

One after another, people approached the bar, according to George. Wilson introduced that this bar does not have a hard name to stipulate whether the person who comes is at the director level, as long as you have a strong interest in the movie, you can come and go casually, don't look at some directors who are usually yelling on the set and being fierce to the actors, but as soon as they enter this bar, they will put away those irritable and stinky tempers, and they will behave as politely as gentlemen in the Middle Ages.

After listening to this, Wang Xiaohu threw down a sentence: "Tired!" ”

"How?" George. Wilson asked, puzzled.

Wang Xiaohu shrugged his shoulders and said: "During the day, you have to wear a mask and pretend to be a gentleman when you go to the bar at night, this is the so-called tradition of you Westerners. ”

"Really?" George. Wilson looked at Wang Xiaohu like a monster, probably the first time he had heard such a statement, "My opinion is the opposite of yours. ”

Wang Xiaohu smiled silently, not refuting Wilson, Wang Xiaohu called the waiter to add beer to the two, and listened to Wilson's introduction to those big directors who were communicating with "Sven" while drinking, unfortunately, Wang Xiaohu did not have the slightest impression of these directors who smoked cigars and wore top hats, let alone the slightest intention of making friends.

Just when Wang Xiaohu thought that the trip ended in failure, two young people came to the bar, the reason why they said young was because they did not have a beard on their chins, and they were a few years older than Wang Xiaohu in terms of age, but according to Wang Xiaohu's observation, they would not be more than 30 years old, but Wang Xiaohu always felt that the two of them were a little familiar, and they were wondering who he was, and Wilson next to him had already stood up and shouted softly: "Hey, Steven, come here, I'll introduce you to a new friend." ”

The young man who was replaced by Steven turned around, saw Wilson and smiled, and then pulled his partner over: "George, please say that you have made a lot of money for the company recently, and I was still talking to Lucas just now about taking time to give you a treat." ”

Wilson spread his hands and said: "When it comes to treats, I don't think anyone is more qualified than the one next to me. King. ”

"Oh God! Is it really you? Steven couldn't close his mouth in surprise, he stared at Wang Xiaohu with wide blue eyes for half a minute, and then excitedly grabbed his partner next to him and said, "Lucas, look, he's really Tiger. King. ”

"Hey, I know you love Rocky, but don't get excited like this, okay?" George. Wilson rolled his eyes in frustration, then introduced the two of them and said, "Tiger, this is Steven who is currently writing a screenplay for us at Fox. Spielberg, the one next to him was George. Lucas, I think you all have some common language, right? ”

Steven. Spielberg's eyes turned a little green when he looked at Wang Xiaohu at this time. Lucas was better, but he was surprised. As everyone knows, Wang Xiaohu was even more surprised than them at this time, although he didn't show much surprise on his face, he was already tossing in his heart, grandma, how do you say that sentence, he doesn't come when you are looking forward to it, and when you are about to leave and don't expect it, he will come to the fuck, forget about one, and two more at once!

Anyone in the 21st century will know Steven. Spielberg's name, the famous American film director who was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, and has Jewish ancestry, has won the Academy Award for Best Director twice.

As far as Wang Xiaohu knows, before his rebirth, Spielberg's film revenue was roughly estimated to exceed $8.5 billion worldwide. Called Steven. Spielberg is not an exaggeration to be a "movie wizard", he is a great director who won the Academy Award for his film "Schindler's List", and his famous commercial entertainment films such as "Jaws", "ET. Aliens", and "Jurassic Park" are known to more movie fans, and when people flock to the cinema with this impression to enjoy the black-and-white movie "Schindler's List", they find Spielberg's other world, a world full of wisdom and reason, a world of real film art.

"Hello, Tiger, I'm thrilled to see you." Steven. Spielberg said enthusiastically with his right hand.

"Hello Steven, I'm glad to meet you too." Wang Xiaohu looked at him with a smile and said, "If you don't mind, I want to invite the two of you to have a beer, I don't know if you want to appreciate your face?" ”

"Of course!" Spielberg sat next to Wang Xiaohu excitedly and said: ""Rocky" is really good, both the costumes and the set are very detailed, when the movie ended, I didn't say a word, walked out of the theater, queued for another hour and a half to buy tickets, and watched it again. ”

Wang Xiaohu never imagined that this talented director, who is comfortable between business and art, and combines business and art, would be obsessed with "Rocky". After Wilson talked about it, Wang Xiaohu learned that the current 27-year-old Spielberg should have a small success in Hollywood, and Universal signed a contract with him for three films. The first film was made by Richard. Manson served as the script adaptation of "Flywheel Blood," which tells the absurd story of a big truck trying to squeeze a small car off the road. The fledgling Spielberg directed the TV movie in just ten days. The film, which cost only $300,000, made millions of dollars for Universal when it was released in Europe, impressing insiders.

But now, Spielberg is writing a script for "Father and Son" for 20th Century Fox, which is being filmed and is scheduled to be released on April Fool's Day, and he also talked to Wilson about the release of the film some time ago.

When Wang Xiaohu talked to Spielberg again, George. Lucas has been listening calmly, his eyes behind his small glasses have always looked at Wang Xiaohu, trying to find out the reason why Wang Xiaohu became an instant hit in Hollywood, because the development of foreign directors in Hollywood is not smooth sailing, not to mention that Wang Xiaohu came from the backward East.

"Hello, George, I hope I didn't snub you just now." Wang Xiaohu raised his beer and clinked glasses with Lucas and said, "I heard that you set up a film and television company the year before last, is your business good recently?" ”

The 20th century was the century of cinema, cinema was a great synthesis of the art of directing and the performing arts, in the 20th century, many great directors were born, but few of them were able to bring their glory to the new century. George. Lucas is one of them, and his Star Wars film series and Raiders of the Lost Ark film series have continued their exuberant vitality to this day. George. Lucas is the Chairman of LucasFilm, LucasArts & Entertainment, LucasDigital, LucasLicensing and LucasLearning. He is also super-rich, ranking 194th in Forbes in 2006 with $3.5 billion. In 2008, it ranked 277th with $3.9 billion.

"It's so-so, but compared to you, my business is a small fight." Lucas smiled a little self-deprecatingly and said, "Recently I was working on an autobiographical film that is scheduled to be released in August. ”

Wang Xiaohu asked, "American Style Painting?" ”

"Oh no, I haven't really figured out the name of the film yet, but 'American Painting' sounds good!" Lucas raised his glass and said happily, "Tiger, thank you for coming up with such a wonderful name for my movie." ”

"Cheers." Wang Xiaohu happily clinked glasses with him, in fact, he was not interested in the so-called "American Style Painting", his biggest interest in Lucas was about "Industrial Light and Magic".

Because he knows George. Since Lucas founded ILM in 1975 with the motivation to provide visual effects for the first Star Wars film, ILM has since become synonymous with cinematic magic.

In fact, eight of the 10 highest-grossing films in history used visual effects produced by Industrial Light & Magic. ILM won a whopping 28 Academy Awards: 14 for Best Visual Effects and 14 for Technical Achievement.

With such a good opportunity, how could Wang Xiaohu give it up? ――

Well, the last chapter was supposed to be 291, and my brain is dizzy on this hot day! Tiger fans give some monthly pass support! People who still insist on code words on a hot day of 34 degrees need to be comforted!
