Arnold Schwarzenegger has a very deep and indissoluble bond with Dark Horse International, and has a very deep affection for Chen Ping'an and James Cameron.

In 84, a "Terminator" became popular, and then "Commander of the Devil", "Devil Killing", "Devil Arnold", "Ultimate Warrior", "Devil Red Star" and many other action movies were made, all of which played superheroes, but unfortunately the US box office was always only tens of millions.

Until "Terminator 2", it won 200 million at the box office in North America, and directly directed Schwarzenegger's personal salary to exceed 10 million.

This time, I was invited to Los Angeles to attend a family dinner at James Cameron's house.

It was not only him who came to Cameron's house this time, but also Chen Ping'an and Zhong Chuhong. After seeing Chen Ping'an, Arnold went up to be a bear hug, and Chen Ping'an disappeared into his arms on the spot.

"Let me out!"

Watching Chen Ping'an's wolf escape, Zhong Chuhong couldn't help laughing.

Everyone had a very happy dinner, and talked about how several people met for the first time because of "The Terminator".

Anne Head and James Cameron bonded over "The Terminator"; Chen Ping'an became a white wolf who sold his property and empty gloves, and did not want copyright at the box office; Arnold Schwarzenegger was not the first choice for "The Terminator", or was Chen Ping'an the last choice......

As the only listener, Zhong Chuhong listened with relish, and also understood why the relationship between the four was so good, and why Arnold was so excited when he saw Chen Ping'an.

When she heard that Chen Ping'an did not hesitate to sell his restaurant in order to raise money to shoot "The Terminator", and he was penniless and had to rely on fooling Shang Geyun to make a living, she was funny and admired.

My man just has a vision. Visionary, extraordinary!

Chatting and talking. Chen Ping'an asked about Arnold's recent film contract, but he didn't expect that he was actually preparing for a bodybuilding competition.

Arnold is a bodybuilder by origin. When he was in Europe, he won many honors such as "Mr. Europe", "Mr. Universe", and "Mr. Olympia". He became an American citizen to participate in international bodybuilding competitions and won the title of "Mr. Bodybuilder".

He loves bodybuilding so much that he plans to hold an Arnold Classic this year, which he is planning for a while now.

Chen Ping'an was dumbfounded when he heard this: "Are the funds enough?" I can personally sponsor a part. ”

"Chen, thank you for your generosity, the funds are abundant."

"That's good. You're busy organizing bodybuilding competitions, which means you haven't been filming lately? Anne Heard asked.

Arnold nodded: "You guys, don't you want to film with me?" ”

Chen Ping'an and the others laughed, and Anno looked at them: "You are so cunning." Let me guess. Anne is the producer, the director is Cameron, as for the screenwriter, it must be Chen, right? By the way, there is also Zhong, who is the heroine, and I am not wrong? ”

"No, I'm not ......" Zhong Chuhong hurriedly explained, she actually just accompanied Chen Ping'an to Cameron's house for dinner.

Chen Ping'an suddenly stopped her words: "Actually, it's not bad for you to play the heroine." ”

"Chen?" Anne Heard was stunned.

"Have you thought about it. At first, Ah Hong was dressed very rustic, like a housewife. As a Chinese who came to the United States, I was not used to this country and the boredom of life. It's easy to be fooled by hearing about agents and the like. In the end, she became an agent with her husband, and the couple went on a mission, and she became charming from the old person before. I think it's very reasonable and interesting. ”

Anne Heard thought for a moment: "Well, you convinced me for the time being. Bell. Don't blame me, I like you a lot. Not for you. ”

"It's okay, I understand." After so many years in the United States, Zhong Chuhong knows Anne Hurd's temper very well.

This strong woman rarely talks about affection when she does things, and only thinks about things that are beneficial to the company and the movie, and any favor and face are invalid. She'd also seen Anne Heard and Cameron arguing over work issues.

"You've said so much, Anno is the protagonist who hasn't said anything yet. If he doesn't agree, you have to compensate me for my vacation. Cameron muttered, "Anno, you know, I was enjoying my vacation, Sunny Beach with good wine and pretty girls...... Well, when I didn't say that. ”

Arnold grinned, "Let me see the script first." ”

"Wait a minute." Cameron got up and went to the study, Arnold was puzzled, and Anne Heard explained with a smile: "When he came back, he always complained that we were too mean and exploited his vacation, but after reading the script, he didn't lose it." In the past two days, I have been discussing with Chen to revise the script, and the two seem to have had a dispute because of their different opinions. ”

Chen Ping'an shrugged: "He's a weirdo." ”

"So are you." Zhong Chuhong added, and the four of them laughed.

After a while, Cameron came with the script and handed it to Arnold: "Take a look, some places are more chaotic to modify, you can read according to my changes." ”

"There are some places that you changed randomly!"

"But I'm the director!"

"I'm a screenwriter and an investor!"

"Okay, okay, are you two children?"

Anne Heard and Zhong Chuhong pulled the two apart, but the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Let's shoot according to your revised script first." Chen Ping'an said.

He knows where the differences between him and Cameron lie. He wrote the script very succinctly, because he had the movie in his head, so he knew how to shoot it. But for Cameron, it's not just a brevity and a dead thinness, and a lot of directness has to be added to make the script look fuller.

The quarrel between the two is actually too much of a joke, and it is not really a quarrel. Cameron also said: "When shooting, if I think the part I have changed is not appropriate, I will revisit your opinion. ”

Arnold is already stuck in the script.

Seeing his input, the four of them did not urge, and chatted brightly. Anne Heard blamed Cameron for being too stubborn, and Zhong Chuhong asked if it was true or false to let him play the heroine.

After reading the script for a long time, Anno asked the first question: "How much is this movie going to invest?" ”

"The initial plan is 100 million, and the rest depends on the old card. If he goes over the mark, I'll have to invest more. ”

One of the reasons why Cameron likes to work with Chen Ping'an very much is that Chen Ping'an never cares about filming funds. Only pursue cinematic effects. Although he rarely spends more on a film than he has set a pre-determined investment, he also doesn't like that investors are always counting every penny he spends.

"I love this script. But I don't have time right now. As I said earlier, I'm running a bodybuilding competition......"

"It doesn't matter. The film is not in a very hurry, it is planned to be released next summer, as long as you say yes. ”

"Of course, of course I agreed! You're two consecutive Oscars for Best Screenplay, how could I say no? Arnold was in a good mood and joked with Zhong Chuhong, "I always thought Zhong was very sexy, and I was finally able to partner with her...... Chen, you won't be jealous, will you? ”

Chen Ping'an directly hugged Zhong Chuhong into his arms. kissed her on the face: "Arnold, we Orientals are very conservative, don't bully her." ”

"Hahaha, rest assured. We're friends, aren't we? Besides, Cameron will be staring at me, right? ”

After the joke, it was Chen Ping'an and Anne Heard who negotiated on investment.

After bargaining with the press, the two parties finally agreed that Hong Kong Dark Horse International Film Company would invest 50 million. The American Dark Horse International Film Company invested 30 million yuan, and released 20% of the 20 million share for Hong Kong and Taiwan Film Companies to subscribe.

Cameron asked puzzled, "Chen, I don't understand." Since you are so optimistic about your book, I firmly believe that the box office can be a big hit. Why let someone else invest in it? ”

This question has bothered him for many years, and not only him, but also Anno and Zhong Chuhong don't understand it.

Chen Ping'an hasn't answered yet. Anne Heard sighed faintly: "If we also have such a big influence in the United States, I also think about what kind of fund-raising order Chen makes." ”

Hey?

Even Anne said so. Looks like this stuff has a lot of meaning!

Faced with the questioning of the trio, Anne Heard explained the meaning behind the charlatan. Hearing this, the three of them suddenly realized.

"Chen has always been cunning, and Anne suffered at his hands at the beginning." This is what Cameron said, talking about the copyright of "Terminator".

"Chen, are you Orientals as cunning as you?" Arnold asked.

Zhong Chuhong hurriedly denied: "No, it's just him." ”

Anne Heard agreed with Chung's words: "Chung is right, otherwise there is only one Chan in Hong Kong." You may not know it yet. One time I was chatting with Alain Ryder, and he told me that the last thing he wanted to face was Chen, and that Chen was a cunning fox and a vampire! ”

"Did he really say that? It seems that when this movie is released in the future, I will need to renegotiate with him about the box office split. ”

Anne Heard immediately said, "I've got your back!" ”

Everyone had a very happy dinner, Zhong Chuhong drove Chen Ping'an home and asked him again if she really starred in the heroine of that movie.

She has developed in the United States for many years and acted in many movies, but she has never starred in a movie with an investment of more than 100 million, let alone a heroine!

"Of course, I promise you that I will never change, but you are my woman."

"I'm not the only woman in you."

"But you're my favorite."

Chen Ping'an hugged Zhong Chuhong and wanted to make love, Zhong Chuhong pushed him away with a smile: "Take a bath first, I'll go put the water, do you want to wash with me?" ”

"Of course!"

After putting the bath water and adjusting the temperature, Zhong Chuhong came out and took off only the hood and pants, and hugged Chen Ping'an from behind: "Honey, take me to the bath." ”

"Wait a minute, I'll make a call first."

After finalizing Arnold and Zhong Chuhong, the target film of the 5th Jianghu Fundraising Order can be determined, and he needs to call Hong Kong to inform Zhang Yijia and ask Zhang Yijia to contact "Oriental Daily".

In the past, the fund-raising orders were reported by the Oriental Daily, and this time is certainly no exception.

It is conceivable that after the publication of this fundraising order, readers will cause a sensation when they see that the heroes and heroines are Arnold Schwarzenegger and Zhong Chuhong respectively!

Hanging up the phone, Chen Ping'an hugged Zhong Chuhong into his arms: "My dear, I want to use these two movies to double your worth!" (To be continued......) R1292
