"Set a time for me, I'm going to meet them tomorrow night......"
Jin Xiaoqiang explained to Alice on the phone, and then stayed in Nick's castle villa with peace of mind, and he planned to wait for Nick tonight. Reilly comes back, and after the Transformers are done, I'm going to meet the two solar experts tomorrow.
He plans to listen to Matt and Edwards tomorrow to see how their solar research and development plans are going, and whether they have reached the stage where they can put them to practical use.
If he can, then with this new type of solar panel, it will be a big boost to his upcoming hybrid car under Huayang Power in the future.
At the same time, he was also thinking that after meeting Matt and Edwards, it was probably time to meet with the people of the Pantis family......
Nick arrived at his home at about five o'clock in the evening, and he was accompanied by a tall, fat, somewhat bald guy, and the other was a tall, moderate, middle-aged man with blonde hair.
"Haha, Mysterkin, who do you think I'm bringing back to you?"
Nick saw Jin Xiaoqiang, who was waiting for him in the hall, and immediately shouted to Jin Xiaoqiang, Jin Xiaoqiang didn't know these two people, but seeing Nick so elated, it was estimated that these two people were high-level people inside Paramount.
"Hello, Nick, who are these two?"
Jin Xiaoqiang smiled and walked to the side of Nick and the two people, his demeanor was a little reserved, but this is also as it should be, after all, he is now the hottest car design master in the world, and the youngest promising car company CEO, so now he is no longer the grassroots teenager of the day.
"Come, come, let me introduce you, Mysterkin, Don, one of Paramount's shareholders and one of the main producers. Murphy, and this is one of Hollywood's youngest and most promising directors, Michael. Seashell! ”
Nick's introduction really scared Jin Xiaoqiang, he also liked to watch movies in his last life, especially Hollywood blockbusters, whether it is a literary film or a blockbuster with a hot plot, he knows a few Hollywood actors, but if you want to say that big people like producers or behind-the-scenes directors, he really doesn't know much.
However, he also knows that it is often these people who really create those screen classics, because it is they who go step by step from the beginning of planning to later finding someone to arrange, which will lead to the birth of those on-screen classics.
And in Hollywood, in fact, it is such people who have the ability to turn the clouds and rain, and as for those stars on the screen, they often rely on the support of these people to achieve success
"Hello, nice to meet you, Don. Mr. Murphy, and Michael. Mr. Pei. ”
Jin Xiaoqiang greeted the two very humbly, these two people Tang. Murphy's life and life, he doesn't know very well but Michael. Betha still knows.
This Michael. Bey, when he was young, was just an ordinary MTV director, and he didn't have any outstanding works at the time, but later after shooting a lot of successful commercials for Nike, Coca-Cola, Reebok, Budweiser and other big companies, he gradually became famous.
Later, he began to get involved in the film and television industry, and in 1995 he produced Youwill. Smith and Martin. After Lawrence starred in "Jedi Men", he began to rise to fame.
And then he made several less successful films, until he made another production by Nicolas Cage, and Sean. It wasn't until Connelly starred in "Into the Dead Island" that he began to make a name for himself and became one of the hottest action film directors in the world. …,
However, after that, the results of several movies he made were not very good, including "The End of the World" and "Pearl Harbor", etc., and the release of the bad movie "Pearl Harbor" made him even more infamous.
But the one that really messed him up was the one released last year, which was pinned on high hopes for "Escape from Clone Island", after the release of this film, it was a lot of scolding, people thought that he was not suitable for this kind of suspenseful film, he was only suitable for the kind of action movie that exploded and flew cars.
Just when people thought that he had exhausted his talents and had become yesterday's yellow flower, he relied on the "Transformers" to be released next year to turn over again, made a beautiful turnaround, and then returned to the list of the world's top directors.
But now is the lowest point in his life, and when he thinks of the next few very popular "Transformers" series, Jin Xiaoqiang can't help but befriend him now.
"I'm glad to meet you, Misterkin, too."
Tang Dynasty. Murphy replied lukewarmly to Jin Xiaoqiang, his attitude was lukewarm, but Michael. Bei's attitude towards Jin Xiaoqiang was very affectionate.
"Hello, nice to meet you, Mysterkin, and I'm a big fan of all the cars you've designed. Do you know? Whether it's Qoros you designed, or a tough guy series, I have a collection at home! And most crucially, the Captain America that you just recently unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show, I've placed an order, haha! ”
Michael. Bey, of course, is known for making action movies with hot scenes, so in many of his films, everyone can see the fiery shooting, and the scenes of flying cars, and he himself is undoubtedly a car enthusiast.
In his home, he not only collects famous cars, such as Ferraris, Porsches, etc., but he also likes those models with a lot of personality.
Although Huayang Power's Qoros car series, as well as the tough guy car series, have gradually flooded the US market, but at the beginning of the launch of these two cars, he still bought a few to go home to play.
And this time, Huayang Power brought Captain America at the Detroit Auto Show is a work he admires very much, so he has already placed an order for this high-performance version of Captain America early.
"Haha, huh? Then you're really polite, you know I'm also a fan of yours? Did you know? Your film "Death Island" has always been one of my favorite movies, and I still have a DVD of that movie in my house! ”
That's right, there is indeed a pirated version of "Brave Death Island" downloaded from the Internet on his computer hard drive, but this is also a kind of support for others, not a fool, Jin Xiaoqiang thought to himself.
"Oh? Is it? Thank you so much for your kindness......"
"Brave Death Island" can be said to really make Michael. Bei stepped into the fame of a world-class director, so in his own heart, the weight of this film is also very heavy, and it can be said that it has always been one of the prides in his heart.
At this time, Jin Xiaoqiang touted his movie like this, how could he not be proud"
And this Jin Xiaoqiang is so good at talking, which suddenly made him have a good impression of this guy, he used to be just a fan of the car designed by this guy, but now he suddenly feels that this person seems to be very talented, and he is also a good person.
You must know that since he was in the movie "Escape from Clone Island" last year, he made his career suffer Waterloo, with an investment of 1 dollar, but only tens of millions of returns, and the scolding of countless moviegoers, and the loss-making business also made him completely turned into a waste in the eyes of DreamWorks and Warner Bros. executives. …,
If it weren't for him and Don. Murphy, the producer of Paramount, has a hard relationship, and "Transformers", which will be launched this year, must have nothing to do with him.
And even he and Don.
Murphy's relationship is irreversible, but because he has messed up on the two major productions of "Pearl Harbor" and "Escape from Clone Island", there are still many Paramount executives who don't like him very well, and are wondering whether he should direct this "Transformers".
So by now, Michael. Bei's image in Hollywood, and even in the United States as a whole, is very embarrassing, and many people think that he is already Jiang Lang's talent, and it is time to go back to retirement.
But he is not reconciled, he is now planning to lobby Paramount's top management with Don to get them to agree to direct this "Transformers" by himself, he believes that relying on his strength in action movies, he can definitely make a comeback by relying on this film.
"Let's go, go inside and sit and talk."
Nick saw that Jin Xiaoqiang and Michael seemed to worship each other, and Tang's expression was also a lot more relieved at this time, so he hurriedly beckoned a few people into his study to talk.
In the study, Jin Xiaoqiang, of course, was right to Michael. Bei's past classics were touted, and then he also said that he was very optimistic about Michael. Belly directed the "Transformers" movie, if Tang and Paramount agreed, he was willing to invest $30 million in the movie, but the condition was, of course, to let Huayang Power's models show their faces many times in the movie, and still have a positive image, and they should also account for 20% of the dividends in the later films.
And Don. Murphy and Michael. After Bei heard the news that Jin Xiaoqiang said, he was immediately overjoyed, and he almost burst into tears without excitement.
You must know that Tang Zainian has already obtained the film adaptation rights of "Transformers", but the company has been unwilling to invest in this film, and the senior management has repeatedly said that they do not have much confidence in this kind of movie, even if it is invested, the investment may not be large, and in order to share the risk, it may have to find a partner......
The appearance of Jin Xiaoqiang, isn't this just sending them pillows?
