On the morning after the end of the press conference of "Youth Musicale 3", Ex appeared in the living room of Lin Mingyang's house on time. Lin Mingyang "spoke wildly" at the new film press conference of "Youth Musical" 3, and the media's reaction to this matter was mixed, but according to Ackes's optimistic prediction, Lin Mingyang will not want to hear any praise about him from Hollywood film critics for a long time in the future.

Since he dares to speak in front of the media, Lin Mingyang naturally doesn't care about those comments, the first winter vacation of college will end soon, and "Song and Dance Youth 3" has already occupied most of his time, and the rest of the time, Lin Mingyang plans to take a good rest.

But Ex didn't make a special trip to make fun of Lin Mingyang this time, he brought Lin Mingyang a script with a role salary of only $4 million. To put it in normal times, such a salary price, Acks didn't even bother to open the script, let alone recommend it to Lin Mingyang.

But this time the situation is a little different, and Exx can be very sure that there is something in this film that Lin Mingyang is interested in. He intended to sell Guanzi, but Lin Mingyang had no choice but to hold back his curiosity and open the script by himself.

The plot of the story is very similar to the South African film "Gangster Thug", which recently won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. The gang leader became half-crazy and half-stupid because of an accident, and imagined that his son's former girlfriend's child was his grandson, so he planned a baby theft plan.

Two stupid thieves facing difficulties in life, in a desperate situation, promise to help the gang organization hijack the newborn babies of two popular stars in Los Angeles. But the middleman in charge of contacting the criminal organization was detained by the police for a trivial matter, and he did not get the reward for the mission, so the little baby was forced to stay in the home of one of the stupid thieves. Since then, the lives of the two have been turned upside down by this extra little guy, and a lot of ridiculous farce has been staged. The two stupid thieves were gradually awakened to their inner conscience in the process of getting along with the baby, but at this time, the middleman was released, and the gang organization also learned the whereabouts of the baby from him.

Tempted by a large bonus, the two stupid thieves eventually hand over the baby, but they also suffer from the torment of conscience, and finally they decide to snatch the baby back from the criminal gang. After a fierce battle, the two successfully rescued the baby and returned him safely to his parents, and finally the two met at the police station and surrendered.

Lin Mingyang thinks this story is very familiar, this is clearly a Hollywood remake of the Hong Kong film "Baby Plan", but he clearly remembers that at this time, the "Baby Plan" of Hong Kong films has not yet appeared, so this script that appeared out of thin air is so similar to the plot of "Baby Plan" in his memory that it can't be explained by the word accident alone.

"Who is the other star of this film?"

Lin Mingyang just said casually, but he startled Exx, who was having coffee with him on the side, and he stared at Lin Mingyang with wide eyes.

"How do you know?"

Lin Mingyang looked at the agent who reacted strangely in confusion, "How do I know what... I asked who would I be partnering with for this film? ”

The two stared at each other for a long time, and then Ex realized that he was too worried. Looking at Lin Mingyang's expression, he shouldn't know the truth of the matter yet, which means that this surprise is still valid.

Ruling out the possibility of the secret being leaked in advance, Ex put on an unfathomable look, "Then who do you want to be able to work with?" ”

Thinking that he only had a salary of $4 million, Lin Mingyang estimated that the budget for the film was pitiful. According to this inference, there is basically no possibility that the film will invite other big-name actors to join. But to think about it differently, from the producer's point of view, if they want to rely entirely on Lin Mingyang's fame and appeal for this film, then the other party's salary for him is not enough to watch at all. This script is good, but it is not to the point where Lin Mingyang lowers his value.

Lin Mingyang shook his head, firstly, he really couldn't think of any suitable candidates in Hollywood, and secondly, this matter was shrouded in a layer of mist that he couldn't see through from beginning to end, could it be that because of his appearance, history has become so chaotic?

"Your other partner is Hong Kong's kung fu superstar Jackie Chan!"

---What Lin Mingyang got in his hand was indeed the script of the Hong Kong film "Baby Plan" that he remembered, but it was not entirely in the standard sense, because the actual situation was different from his memory. The script was written by Jackie Chan in collaboration with another Hong Kong screenwriter, and was originally intended to be made into a Hong Kong film, but a Hollywood production company Reading Power also saw the script at the same time, and they were going to move the film to the United States to shoot.

Jackie Chan himself also wanted to return to Hollywood with this film, and the two sides quickly established a cooperation intention, Jackie Chan served as the film's starring and action director, and with the golden sign of Jackie Chan, a kung fu superstar, the company immediately began to look for a suitable partner for Jackie Chan. Originally, their idea was to find a black actor to partner with Cheng Long, which was somewhat suspected of plagiarizing "Rush Hour".

This company delivered the script to Lin Mingyang, just with the mentality of giving it a try. The black actor they wanted had not yet been found, but they first received a call from Lin Mingyang's agent Ex.

The producer of "Baby Project" is named Curry, and when he learned on the phone that Lin Mingyang was interested in their script and was willing to accept the role, his brain "boomed", and then Ex said something to him on the phone, and he didn't listen to it at all. On the other end of the phone, Ex said a few irrelevant words, found that the other party did not respond at all, and finally hung up the phone a little depressed.

Curry sat there dumbfounded, phone in hand, unaware of the busy beep in the receiver. $4 million invited Lin Mingyang, a hot and popular first-line movie star in Hollywood, Curry now has only one thought in his mind, that is, the company will definitely make a lot of money this time.

The body began to take a toll on the excitement, and Curry now felt like a boiler in his seat, burning his head dizzy. The blood in his body was like boiling water, with an unbearable heat, flowing all the way to the tips of his fingers. He put down the phone tremblingly, and it all seemed like it was in a dream. Curry slapped his face vigorously to make sure it was all true, and then dialed the phone in Hong Kong with trembling fingers. His excitement made him completely ignore the fact that there was still a jet lag, and it was midnight in Hong Kong.

Jackie Chan's agent Su Zhihong was woken up in the middle of the night by a call from Curry from the United States, Curry's voice on the phone was shorter than usual, always like he couldn't breathe a sigh of relief, and after listening to it for a long time, Su Zhihong finally understood what he meant.

Although Su Zhihong is usually not obvious, he is hidden behind the scenes of the Hong Kong film industry, but he can also be regarded as a prince. His Cinema Consultancy Limited is one of Hong Kong's premier brokerage firms. In more than 20 years of film and television work, Su Zhihong has accumulated a wide range of resources, and has extensive media resources and connections with performing arts companies in East Asia, Europe and the United States.

He has been in charge of Jackie Chan Pictures and Jackie Chan Group for many years, and has a high prestige in the industry, and can be called Jackie Chan's "queen producer", which shows that his personal ability is also very strong, and he is involved in a very comprehensive film field, not only can have a unique judgment in the field of early film investment, but also have a certain professional surname in film planning, film production, advertising and investment, distribution, and even in organizing global publicity and promotion, and even from the overall planning, team management, implementation, and post-publicity of a film, he is also well versed and at ease.

Because he has produced the Hollywood film "Tuxedo" starring Jackie Chan, Su Zhihong is no stranger to Hollywood. Don't look at Jackie Chan is now an international superstar, and he has also left a name on the Los Angeles Walk of Fame, but in Europe and the United States, his influence is actually not as good as Lin Mingyang, a new generation of Hollywood movie stars.

Knowing that Lin Mingyang agreed to star in this movie with a salary of $4 million, Su Zhihong couldn't sleep anymore.

-- The second person who was woken up by the phone in the middle of the night was naturally Jackie Chan, and as soon as he saw that the caller showed Su Zhihong, he immediately cheered up. With his understanding of Su Zhihong, if he hadn't encountered something important, the other party would not have called him at this time.

Su Zhihong didn't say anything on the phone, but just asked Jackie Chan to come out for an interview. Jackie Chan looked at the time, it was already more than one o'clock in the morning. The sound when she answered the phone had already woken up her sleeping wife next to her, and she propped herself up half of her body from the bed with sleepy eyes, "You still have to go out so late?" ”

"Ah Hong's phone call, it may be that something happened in the United States, I'll go meet with him!" Jackie Chan explained as he got dressed.

After settling his wife, Jackie Chan went downstairs to wake up the driver and security guard. Ten minutes later, he rushed to the tea restaurant where he had made an appointment to meet Su Zhihong. Su Zhihong had been sitting in the box for a while at this time, and when Jackie Chan walked in, he greeted him excitedly.

Looking at Su Zhihong's eyes and smiling expression, Jackie Chan felt relaxed for a while, and it seemed that Su Zhihong should have brought him good news.

"I haven't seen you smile so happily in years!" Jackie Chan was also infected by the emotions on Su Zhihong's face, and made fun of each other as soon as they met.

"This time is definitely good news!" The excited and enthusiastic expression on Su Zhihong's face was like a flood that had burst the embankment, pouring out mightily and loudly: "Curry just called from the United States, and they have already found a suitable partner for you in "Baby Project", you will be surprised when this person says it!" ”

"To make you excited like this, that person must be not small!" Jackie Chan said with a smile.

"It should be said that he is in the limelight, and among the new generation of Hollywood movie stars, no one can compare with him." Su Zhihong said half of his words, and then deliberately bought a pass.

With Jackie Chan's understanding of Hollywood, a name immediately came to his mind.

"Are you talking about Felix Lin?"
