Chapter 718. Assassin's Creed launch

readx;

It is said that Hollywood stars Shange Winton and Longer feel that the $1 million salary offered by Magic Shadow Entertainment is "too low" and intends to raise the price, after all, these Chinese thieves have money and do not slaughter for nothing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Chen Xiaotang also said very well: "Actually, I also think that a million dollars seems a little inappropriate......

The two of them were suddenly overjoyed, and Chen Xiaotang was suddenly stunned, "Oh dear, what are you talking about, one million per person?" ”

"yes, isn't it?" The two were suspicious.

"Of course not!" Chen Xiaotang said loudly: "You must have misunderstood, the one million I said is the salary of the two of you combined!" ”

"Huh?! My mother, we heard you right? Shange Yunton and Lunger looked at each other.

A million, two people?!

You know, the two of them flew all the way from Hollywood for the millions of dollars, but they flew all the way from Hollywood, and now they are ...... Damn, what kind of plane?!

"Dear Rafichen, I suppose you must be mistaken?" Shang Ge Yunton said without giving up.

"That's right, it's obviously a million, why did it suddenly become 500,000?" Ronger's depressed egg hurts.

Seeing the bitter appearance of the two big guys, Chen Xiaotang bent over with a smile in his heart, and said very seriously on the surface: "That's right, I'm not wrong at all." If I remember correctly, your salary in Hollywood is only three or four hundred thousand US dollars, there is no reason to ask for a million salary for us Hong Kong people to film, right? I think it's worth the money, everyone should understand! ”

"Ahem!" Shang Ge Yunton coughed vigorously, but he didn't expect his details to be clearly touched by others, "That being said, but the ones we participated in are all big Hollywood productions, and now we are willing to come to Hong Kong to see you, which has already given your company face, and we must not give in to this remuneration!" ”

At this moment, the two big guys have long forgotten to continue to blackmail Chen Xiaotang to increase his salary, and it is already very good to be able to keep the original salary, after all, one million dollars is not a small amount.

"Oh. That's a pity, to be honest, it's already taken a lot of effort for me to open a total of one million price codes for two people, and I wanted to discuss with you two if I could reduce it a little more, but now...... Alas, it's not easy to do! Chen Xiaotang spread his hands. Make a helpless look.

"Shit! This is certainly impossible! Runger said angrily. We're not so low-level! ”

"It's like, it's a big deal for us to fly back to Hollywood and fuck your shit movie!"

"Tsk, I didn't expect the two friends to get angry so easily." Chen Xiaotang said regretfully, "But it's a guest from afar, and the two of you don't have to be in such a hurry to leave, you can have a good time in Hong Kong!" It's a big deal that I will do my best to introduce the two of you to a few good places, of course. You will also be responsible for your own expenses! ”

Depressed!

Super depressed!

Shange Winton and Long Ge only felt that this Rafi Chen in front of them was very hateful, very picky, and difficult to entangle!

It does not have the impression that the Chinese are gentle and humble, weak and easy to bully.

"Don't worry, even if we starve to death, we won't trouble you!" The two big guys roared and were about to turn around and go out.

"Oh yes." Chen Xiaotang suddenly said behind him. "I guess you haven't read the newspaper these days? I heard that there is a strike in Hollywood, and many actors have not started work, and it is reported that this situation will last for at least a month, pitiful, so many people are going hungry! ”

"Ah, what? Are you telling the truth? The two big guys immediately stopped.

They had heard about the Screen Actors Guild strike before, but they didn't expect it to come so quickly.

"Huh. I'm not the kind of person who talks about it, whether it's true or not, see for yourself! Chen Xiaotang casually threw them a newspaper.

Neither of them was stupid, so they took the newspaper and read it. Sure enough, the news of the Hollywood union strike was published on the front page.

In fact, this is not the first time that the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild has gone on strike, and Americans advocate independence and democracy, especially Hollywood people, who immediately express their dissatisfaction, for example, this time because many film companies are exploiting film shares, it has provoked everyone to resist together.

After reading the news, Shange Yunton and Longer both wilted, what should I do, at this time, I will definitely not have a job when I go back, can I say that I will let my family starve with me for a few months?

Don't look at the income of these celebrities, but the consumption is also high, for example, Shange Winton recently bought a house in New York, and the down payment has not been paid, and Runger has ordered a new luxury sports car, which is also short of money.

Damn, it's really life-threatening!

Lao Shang reacted quickly enough, and after reading the newspaper, he saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately laughed: "Ha, in fact, I think a salary like 500,000 yuan is also okay, everyone will deepen their understanding of each other, Hollywood and Hong Kong should cooperate more with each other, right?" I don't have any skills, and I am willing to be a bridge and link for the first cooperation! ”

Long Ge did not show weakness, "That is to say, talking about money hurts feelings!" Although I have only just met Rafi Chen, I have already sympathized with each other, in our Dutch words, peas and potatoes are all one bean! ”

For the sudden change of the two big guys, Chen Xiaotang is a little uncomfortable, picking, who said that these two are kung fu schools, complete acting schools, you see this play, it is the same as the real one!

"Hehe, since that's the case, let's get down to business, can the two 500,000 salaries be reduced a little more?" Chen Xiaotang's words directly thundered the two big guys.

500,000, still to reduce? Damn, this Rafichen is not a good thing, take advantage of the fire to rob!

"Ahem, we think this price is already very fair, no need to reduce it!" Shange Winton said hurriedly.

"Alas, I don't want to, mainly because our company has been operating hard recently, and there are only 300,000 US dollars per person who can come up with it...... You see? ”

"No! 300,000 is too little! It's not in order! ”

"yes, we're at least 400,000 in Hollywood!"

"Hollywood has Hollywood's rules, and we in Hong Kong have Hong Kong's rules, or the two of you will give a 6% discount on the basis of 500,000?"

"No way!"

"Sixty-five folds?"

"Still won't work!"

"Seven folds?"

"Why do we sound like we're selling pork?!"

"Ok, a fixed price, it's 7% off!" Chen Xiaotang cut the railway. "Five-seven-thirty-five, I will send you a salary of 350,000 yuan each, and now it will be okay?!"

The two big guys scratched their heads and looked at each other, their heads couldn't turn, the original one million shrank to 500,000, and how did 500,000 suddenly become 350,000? !

No wonder people say it. If you are big, you don't have enough brains!

Before the two guys came back to their senses, Chen Xiaotang had already taken the contract, grabbed their hands and pressed the handprints. The two "big names" from Hollywood are like white-haired girls who were sold by Yang Bailao at the moment, and they are very hard.

Afterwards. The two found themselves as if they had been "trapped". And the person who "pitted" himself still smiled and blew the contract with undried handprints, while kindly telling them, "Remember, call the family and let them not worry, this drama will be filmed soon!" ”

So, the two poor big guys dialed the ocean phone and sent a letter to the family that we were working in other places. Don't worry!

Hong Kong Magic Shadow Entertainment is about to hold a press conference about the launch ceremony of the Magic Shadow blockbuster "Assassin's Creed".

As a rule, real press conferences are organized and premeditated. After all, it always takes time to invite journalists? Does it take time to produce speeches and promotional materials?

But it's a pity that this point is not suitable for Chen Xiaotang. Because, who called him newsworthiness is too great. How big is it that you don't need any invitations to have countless reporters revolving around him all day long?

As for what speeches, what propaganda materials, hehe, not to mention, his Chen Xiaotang's name is the best publicity, what does he want to say. So what will the journalists record, and does this still need to be prepared?

Shadow Entertainment's press conference hall is getting bigger and bigger, nearly 1,000 square meters, except for the 35 square meters of the rostrum. The rest are chaired press booths, which have the largest number of reporters today, at least 500 journalists.

Journalists work hard!

In the morning, because Chen Xiaotang spread a sentence, "We will hold a press conference this morning to announce the start of the new film." ”

Just this sentence made countless reporters rush to the press conference in a hurry before they even had time to eat breakfast.

But they came early, but Chen Xiaotang was nowhere to be seen.

From seven to eight in the morning, then from eight to nine, and from nine to ten...... There wasn't even a bit of movement on the side of Shadow Entertainment.

It was already past eleven o'clock, and my stomach began to growl.

There was no way, the reporters had to nibble on bread, drink mineral water, and have to wait patiently.

This is the life of the paparazzi, this is the most ordinary life of the journalists, bread, mineral water, is their best buddy, malnutrition, irregular food is their daily routine, some people scold them, gossip, say they are shameless and despicable, but who knows their sad side, such as now?

Then again, it's all just about simply living! For example, in the previous life, there was a Hong Kong movie that reflected the life of Hong Kong journalists, and the name of this drama was "Paparazzi Ambition". It can be said that the shamelessness and pitifulness of the Hong Kong paparazzi have been played to the extreme.

Time gradually passed, and although I was so angry in my heart, none of the reporters dared to leave here. Because there are a lot of reporters in the corridor outside! If there is one walk here, then I believe that hundreds of people will come and squeeze in desperately.

It's half past eleven, Chen Xiaotang still hasn't come, it's almost twelve o'clock, just when the reporters thought they had been tricked, the personal bodyguard Ah Long Ahu and others surrounded the big boss Chen Xiaotang and finally came in.

"Oh my God, you're finally here!" A Singaporean female journalist was on the verge of crying.

"Oh God! You finally heard my call and let him come! "A British journalist kept scratching the cross, and he was thanking God. ……

Just when everyone was relieved, Chen Xiaotang, who was smiling, wore a straight suit and shiny leather shoes, as if the chief was inspecting the three armies, waved his right hand and walked in, and shouted: "Friends are so polite!" How can I, Chen, be a person, how can I work and everyone wait so long? I'm really sorry, guys! ”

"Mr. Chen is polite!"

"Yes, Mr. Chen is so polite!"

"It's okay, we can all afford to wait!" ……

After waiting for so long, the reporters also saw it, after all, compared to some celebrities who swore not to accept interviews, Chen Xiaotang is much better. At the very least, he has not refused interviews at all, and he has also largely not refused to answer some questions. What else is there about such a mild-mannered celebrity that displeased journalists?

"Huh. All sit down! Chen Xiaotang also sat down after speaking, looked at the reporter who was ready, and said: "I know what topics everyone is interested in, hehe, so although I have never provided you with a memo to answer reporters' questions." But I also had the answers to some of my questions. Okay, then everyone can hurry up now! ”

"I'll ......"

"I'll ...... first"

"Let me do it. I would like to know ......"

As soon as Chen Xiaotang's words fell, the reporters below became anxious and rushed to shout, as if Chen Xiaotang would not answer when the next question came out. As a consequence, the scene suddenly fell into chaos like a vegetable market.

"Stop arguing!" Chen Xiaotang said softly. But unfortunately, his voice only suppressed the noise of some reporters in front, but the reporters in the back did not react.

Seeing that the situation has become like this, Chen Xiaotang has to be like the bull on the "God List". Sacrifice the magic weapon.

The big guys, Shange Yunton and Longer, walked out majestically and proudly in the sound of singing.

Sure enough, as soon as the two appeared, they immediately shocked the audience.

"Wow, what a strong ghost!"

"Yikes. The foreign devil is coming! ”

"Oh, big guy, big guy!" ……

Some of them were sharp-eyed, and they could see the identities of the two at a glance, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Could it be that they are...... A star on the Hollywood side? ”

"Is that Shangewenton?"

"Is that Ronger?!"

"Oh my God, am I not dazzled? Why are Hollywood stars coming to Hong Kong?! ”……

Ignoring everyone's fuss, Chen Xiaotang only said: "Please be quiet." ”

These reporters, who were still as noisy as flies, immediately shut down and looked at Chen Xiaotang like good babies.

Chen Xiaotang was very satisfied with everyone's reactions. smiled and said: "I think everyone has recognized the two of them, yes, they are Hollywood kung fu stars Mr. Shange Winton and Mr. Runger, why are they here now, to be precise." They have signed a contract with our Shadow Entertainment to join our new kung fu drama "Assassin's Creed", and today, it is the day when our show is officially launched, I hope you will congratulate you! ”

When Chen Xiaotang's words landed, everyone applauded.

"Congratulations, a victory!"

"The Shadow is mighty!"

"Make a good show, kill Hollywood!"

In the end, this voice was very discordant, and Chen Xiaotang directly filtered it.

"Thank you for your support and love, now, if you have any questions, just ask, we know everything!"

His voice landed, and the whole scene boiled again. It's even more noisy than before.

"Please be quiet!" Chen Xiaotang had to raise his voice and yell. His voice was already loud, coupled with the amplification effect of the microphone, as a result, the reporters in front of him, especially the reporter closest to the speaker, quickly became deaf and dizzy in both ears, and he couldn't even distinguish the direction for a while.

The scene was quiet, and Chen Xiaotang was also satisfied. nodded and said: "Everyone is a scholar, a Sven person, you must be polite and know how to maintain order on the spot...... What is noisy and noisy? This is a press conference, and I hope everyone respects themselves and others! ”

The reporters were honest, and they were all taught-minded and bowed their heads, even if they had an idea in their hearts, no one dared to show it on their faces.

"OK, let's start with this reporter from Hong Kong's Ming Pao!" Chen Xiaotang pointed to a female reporter, who didn't say anything except raising his hand just now, so Chen Xiaotang had a good impression of her.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen!" The female reporter stood up and first said thank you politely, and then said, "We all know what the specific story of your play is?" ”

Chen Xiaotang pondered for a moment and said: ""Assassin's Creed" is about the dark Crusades in the Middle Ages in Europe, the ruler ruled the people in a high-pressure way to kill dissidents, and the people were miserable......

Chen Xiaotang roughly told this story, which immediately attracted many media reporters, after all, it takes great courage and pride for Hong Kong people to dare to concoct such a grand idea, and Hong Kong people dare to shoot the story of the European Crusades.

At this time, the female reporter continued to work hard and asked: "After listening to your story, we are sure that this is definitely an epic movie, so the investment must be very large?" ”

"Well, it's almost 30 million Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to about 5 million US dollars......"

"Wow, five million dollars!"

"What a big investment!"

"What a surprise!"

"yes, invest in supergiants!" ……

People let out a burst of exclamations, you must know that the biggest investment drama in Hong Kong is only 10 million Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to more than 1 million US dollars, but now, ...... As soon as the Magic Shadow came out, it was a big production of five million dollars, and even many companies in Hollywood did not have such super strength.

But will this win?

Will it be a thankless effort and call it a suicidal operation?!

The shadow grows fast, should it also be the fast of the loser?

The hearts of the people were full of questions. (To be continued)
