Chapter 250 is ready

Just when Chang Desheng's wife stopped Lin Mingyang outside the door for interrogation, her youngest daughter happened to pass by the foyer, she inadvertently glanced at the door, and then heard her scream, which startled Lin Mingyang and Chang Desheng's wife standing at the door.

"You dead girl, what the hell is in the middle of the day, you have nothing to call nonsense, you scared the old lady" Chang Desheng's wife turned her head and saw that her daughter was standing there stunned, patted her chest, scolded her twice, and then yelled at her as if giving orders: "What are you still doing there, hurry up and teach your dad to get out of the toilet, he must be hiding in it with me behind his back to smoke, look back and see how I clean him up... Hey, you damn girl, I haven't finished my sentence yet, what are you running? ”

Chang Desheng's daughter slipped away as soon as she turned around, and her mother could only stare dryly, and she had already hurriedly ran to the door of the toilet and knocked on the door.

"Dad, you come out quickly"

The toilet door opened a crack, Chang Desheng's head poked out of it, and seeing that his wife was not standing behind his daughter, he took a long sigh of relief, and then glared at his daughter complainingly.

"Dead girl, your mother didn't come to check the number, what are you doing in such a hurry, isn't there a toilet in this house, why are you fighting with your father for this one?"

There was a big smell of smoke in the toilet, Chang Desheng's daughter pinched her nose and fanned in front of her, seeing that Chang Desheng was about to close the door, she pressed the toilet door in a hurry.

"Yo, when did you learn to play hooligan, your dad and my pants haven't been mentioned yet?"

Chang Desheng deliberately teased her, and after giving him a blank look, his daughter hurriedly said: I came to our house, and now I am at the door, and I was stopped by my mother."

Chang Desheng looked at his daughter in confusion, "There are several I know, and there are 3 of them living in our building alone."

His daughter stomped her foot in anger, "I'm talking about the big Hollywood star"

"What did you say?" Chang Desheng's eyes widened, Lin came to look for me, and then was stopped by your mother at the door? ”

He lifted his pants as he spoke, hurriedly extinguished the cigarette butt, and hurriedly rushed out of the toilet with only a slipper on his foot, "This old lady of the loser, no one can stop the God of Wealth outside."

――――

Sir, I'm so embarrassed just now" Chang Desheng's wife was busy making tea for Lin Mingyang, and he himself stood behind Lin Mingyang with an apologetic face, rubbing his hands nervously while carefully considering his words.

"Chang, are you still gambling now?" Lin Mingyang did not rush to sit down, but looked at the living room of Chang Desheng's house with interest.

Chang Desheng shook his head with some embarrassment: "Since the last time I met you and Miss Kate at the racecourse, I have changed my mind and vowed never to gamble again." ”

Lin Mingyang's eyes were attracted by a few photo frames on the cupboard, but he chatted with Chang Desheng: "Director Wu told me that you moved your whole family to the United States... How's it going, are you used to living here? ”

"I don't care, several children can also adapt, but my wife can't speak English, so she can only stay at home all day and do some housework, and this family is now all raised by me alone... Hey, compared to Hong Kong, I think there is at least some hope for my life now, I never wanted to move here and encounter a financial crisis, and this life is not easy."

Chang Desheng babbled a lot, although Lin Mingyang listened to it without a word, but at least he figured out a taste from it, this old Chang's life in the United States was not as wishful as he imagined before.

"We are all Chinese, so if you have any difficulties, you can come to MGM to find me"

Chang Desheng nodded hurriedly, and then saw his hand fumbling in his pocket for a while, took out a business card from it, and respectfully handed it to Lin Mingyang: "I'm going to pull a team here and do work like movie action design... You are now the big boss of MGM, and you can count on being able to take a few orders from you in the future, and you can mix up food and clothing."

Lin Mingyang took the business card, looked at it confidently, and found that there was an English name under Chang Desheng's name, called

Seeing the smile on the corner of his mouth, Chang Desheng explained: "This name was taken by his son, and he said that this is called following the local customs." ”

Lin Mingyang nodded, "That's right, but I still think it's more kind to call you Chang."

Chang Desheng said with a smiling face on the side: "That's it, my half-baked English, I won't be ugly in front of you."

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the door of the second room at the end of the living room was ajar, and a head poked out of it, and when Lin Mingyang looked over here, the other party shrank his head back.

Lin Mingyang couldn't help but smile: "That's your daughter?" ”

"The little girl just arrived here, and she was a little shy..."

"I forgot to bring a gift this time, and I'll give her a Barbie doll when I go back." As soon as Lin Mingyang's words fell, he heard a noise in the room, and it was estimated that the little girl heard his words, and she was secretly having fun alone at this time.

"This kid..."Chang Desheng shook his head helplessly, and then sat down with Lin Mingyang.

"Lao Chang, I actually want to ask you this time, have you been free recently, I have a film in my hand, and the position of the action director is still missing." Lin Mingyang asked tentatively, he wanted to see what kind of reaction Chang Desheng would have.

"It depends on what kind of film you make, and to be honest, I can't do the action direction of war movies and science fiction films."

If Chang Desheng had taken care of it from the beginning, Lin Mingyang would have been a little suspicious, he made it clear so directly, but it happened to be right for Lin Mingyang's appetite.

"Don't worry, it's an action movie" Lin Mingyang nodded with satisfaction, "You have also been exposed to that film before, and there should be no problem in doing it now"

Chang Desheng is also a clever person, Lin Mingyang lightly, he immediately understood: ""Legend of the Night" is going to make a sequel? ”

"Compared with the last time, the scale of investment in this meeting is much larger, the crew is basically the original team from the past, and the director you should also know, it is Patrick, the special effects director of the previous crew."

Because of the nature of their work, Chang Desheng and Patrick are in constant contact, and they dare not say that there should be no problem working together.

"I'm the executive producer of this film, if there's any problem Patrick can't solve, you can come to me directly"

Lin Mingyang said this, and the doubts in Chang Desheng's heart disappeared. In Hollywood, the director is definitely the biggest, but there is still a producer on top. The producer directly represents the opinion and attitude of the investor, and when encountering major problems, the director has to discuss with the producer.

Even a first-class director in Hollywood, considering Lin Mingyang's current identity, will give him three points of courtesy when cooperating, let alone an unknown director like Patrick. Lin Mingyang's promise has given Chang Desheng the greatest trust and support.

――――

Two days later, the first preparatory meeting for Tales of the Night was held at MGM's headquarters.

The first three people in the conference room sat there and looked at each other, Chang Desheng and director Patrick had worked together before, but they didn't know each other well, and when they met, they just nodded to each other, which was regarded as greeting. And Beckman Betov simply sat there alone and read the script, and did not talk to anyone else.

Chang Desheng touched his pocket, originally planning to take out a pack of cigarettes, but after looking at the other two, they didn't seem to have any intention of smoking, so he simply put the cigarette back again.

Lin Mingyang walked into the conference room on the hour, and the three people who arrived early all held on to their chairs and were about to stand up, but Lin Mingyang pressed his hand and signaled that they were not polite.

After he sat down, the secretary of the conference room gently closed the door, "Today's discussion is just about the four of us, Patrick and Chang Chang have worked together before, as for the one sitting on my left, is the Russian cutting-edge filmmaker Mr. Beckman Betov, I had a pleasant cooperation with him in "Wanted", this time I invited him over, mainly responsible for the design of special effects for movie scenes. ”

After introducing the identities of several people in turn, Lin Mingyang pointed to the pile of materials he had brought over, "I have already seen the shooting plan drawn up by Mr. Patrick, and now everyone has a copy in their hands... Let's talk about our views on this plan. ”

The plan was proposed by Patrick, and Lin Mingyang is definitely consulting the opinions of Beckman Betov and Chang Desheng, and Chang Desheng is responsible for the action design in terms of details, and he actually can't put forward any opinions on this macro shooting plan. Lin Mingyang asked this, mainly because he wanted to hear Beckman Betov's opinion.

"Although the film has always been shot in Eastern Europe, there are more locations in the plot this time, so I suggested that the filming location be changed to Russia... I'm more familiar with that side, and the various arrangements for scene scheduling during film shooting will be easier to implement. ”

After Beckman Betov finished speaking, Lin Mingyang's eyes immediately turned to director Patrick's side.

Patrick hesitated and said, "I need to have abandoned mines and ancient castles as a backdrop..."

"There are both on the Russian side, and there are some deactivated military bases nearby, and I can also convince the managers to open them to the crew."

After receiving an affirmative answer from Beckmanbetov, Patrick nodded, which was a plan to place the filming location in Russia.

"And then it's this" Lin Mingyang pulled out a photo from the folder, then stood up and pasted it on the front board: "Regarding the design of this first-generation werewolf, I think it is necessary to make further modifications, I hope its shape can be different from other werewolves, and it looks more powerful... We need stronger villains this time so that we can serve the purpose of attracting the audience."
