Chapter 324 Hong Kong-style thriller across the ocean

Los Angeles, USA.

The weather in Los Angeles is very good, the sky is clear and cloudless, even in the hot summer of July, the temperature is only in the twenties, and the climate is pleasant.

In early July, Chen Ping'an stepped off the plane with a poke cow and four bodyguards, a gunshot wound to his left arm that had not yet healed, and he was greeted by Li Xiaolin, Julia and Brad Pitt.

Anne Heard and Cameron have been very busy recently, the first film in the global film industry with an investment of more than 100 million yuan "Terminator 2" has started filming, not to mention Cameron as a director, even Anne Heard is very busy.

Dark Horse International American Film Company has been established for a relatively short time, although it has produced several wonderful movies, but it has been established for a short time, and it can still only be regarded as a second-tier film company in Hollywood, and there is still a big gap with film giants such as Universal, Warner Bros., and Twentieth Century Fox.

Terminator 2 is important. It is of great significance to both Chen Ping'an and Dark Horse International America. The success of this movie determines the status of Dark Horse International in the American film industry.

The investment of 100 million US dollars, except for Dark Horse International American Film Company, the rest are film companies from Asia, which has caused a lot of controversy in the American film industry. If the sequel fails, Anne Heard's connections will be greatly affected, the company will be isolated, and it will be difficult to grow in the United States.

Therefore, Anne Heard put a lot of experience into the sequel to the movie "Terminator 2", and she complained to Chen Ping'an on the phone, complaining that Chen Ping'an gambled too much this time.

The opening ceremony of "Terminator 2" was a sensation, and many well-known media in the United States reported on it, and the film was completely pushed to the forefront of public opinion.

Chen Ping'an had a big heart and did not ask about the company's development in the United States. First, because he is too lazy to worry, he doesn't know much about the company's operation, and it's useless to worry about it; The second is because he believes in the people he has chosen, whose achievements have long been proven in later generations.

The conversation between him and Cai Ziming was not pleasant, although Cai Ziming was taken aback, but this person was bold and ruthless, and quickly calmed down from the panic and threw out a sentence, either kill him or let him go.

Cai Ziming is right, Chen Ping'an is indeed inconvenient to do it at present. He was shot and Cai Ziming was killed, which is very reminiscent of him. In his eyes, Cai Ziming's life is not valuable, but if he and his henchmen are implicated, then it is unnecessary.

"I'm going to the U.S. tomorrow and I'm back in a few months. These months are your time to think about it, and when I come back, you will have only two choices, either tell me who instructed you, or you will take this secret to hell. Of course, you can also choose to escape. ”

Cai Ziming will definitely not run away, because he is very face-saving, and he has a lot of industries in Hong Kong, and he can't handle it in a few months.

This time he came to the United States, Chen Ping'an specially brought a dwarf cow and four bodyguards. In the eyes of outsiders, this is Chen Ping'an's caution, and even the newspaper reported the incident, saying that after Chen Ping'an was shot, the security work was strengthened, and the bodyguards did not leave him, obviously afraid.

Shi Nansheng, Jiang Zhiqiang and others think that this is completely correct, just like Cai Ziming saw, they also know that Dark Horse International can have today's achievements only because of Chen Ping'an. This empire, which has not yet been completed, will fall apart and fall apart once Chen Ping'an is gone.

Only Chen Ping'an himself knew the reason for leaving with the dwarf cow, it was not all out of consideration for his own safety, but also a trap, which made Cai Ziming jump around in the past few months and lead out the people behind the scenes.

Before leaving, he spent a passionate and romantic night with Zhang Min and Zhou Haimei, or a silver night.

Before getting on the plane, he called Li Jiaxin again, and then flew to the United States.

After getting off the plane, Chen Ping'an did not see Zhong Chuhong, who was still filming in New York at the moment. Although it is difficult for Chinese to move forward in Hollywood, it is precisely because there are very few outstanding Chinese actors, once excellent Chinese actors are accepted by Hollywood, although they may not be able to become popular, there are many films dating for the second and third women.

This is the case with Zhong Chuhong now.

That night, after the reception banquet, the Georgian beauty queen stayed in Chen Ping'an's room. Having seen Chen Ping'an's ability to block Sharon Stone, Julia Roberts is now full of confidence in herself, a young little boss, and has changed from passively accepting the unspoken rules to actively sending them to the door to accept the unspoken rules.

Chen Ping'an came to the United States this time to prepare for the filming of "Rain Man", and she is the heroine of this movie, which is related to her future in the film industry.

Chen Ping'an, who Julia Roberts was waiting for that night, was very comfortable, and the next day Chen Ping'an took her to 20th Century Fox.

Billy King, the distribution manager of 20th Century Fox, warmly received Chen Ping'an.

"Hi, Mr. Chen, I didn't expect you to come in person, you must have brought us an excellent movie. Oh, beautiful lady, it's my pleasure to meet you. ”

Since Chen Ping'an personally discussed the documentary "Mythical City" with him last year, Jiang Zhiqiang is responsible for the connection between Hong Kong Dark Horse International and 20th Century Fox, and Jiang Zhiqiang has also brought a number of excellent movies, and the win-win effect for both parties is good.

Billy King liked the shootout movie called "Bloody Heroes", "This is the best Chinese movie I have ever seen".

Chen Ping'an did bring another movie - "Midnight Bell".

This purely oriental film was a stepping stone to the Hollywood market, and he attached great importance to it, so he personally came to negotiate with 20th Century Fox about distribution.

……

Alain Ryder Jr. was playing cards with a few poker friends when the phone rang.

He took the phone impatiently, and Billkin's voice came from the other end of the line.

After listening to the call from his subordinate distribution manager, Alain Ryder Jr. frowned.

"Mr. Ryder, what's wrong?" It was Donald Patery, also a director. In this group of card friends, because Spielberg was filming in the field, he was called to the top.

"That Dongfang Chen is here again, and I heard that he brought a very strange movie."

The first Chinese to win the best documentary record, the first Chinese to ban a white actress, the Chinese who is known as the last friend of the black...... Chen Ping'an's current nationality in the United States is no longer the unknown he once was.

"Dongfang Chen?" Donald was stunned for a moment, and the producer next to him asked curiously, "What do you mean by 'very strange movie'?" ”

Little Alain Ryder walked over with a cigar in his mouth: "It's a horror movie." ”

"Horror?" Several poker players were dismissive.

Most horror films are small-budget, but they are often prone to excellent movies with knives and saws big trees. However, due to the differences between Eastern and Western cultures, it is difficult for Westerners to accept oriental horror films lightly.

"This kind of trivial matter is also bothering you, and your distribution manager should be replaced."

If the director of this movie was not Chen Ping'an, little Alain Ryder would also have this idea.

Billikin called to ask for instructions because Chen Ping'an's request for a share ratio exceeded Billkin's authority, and he couldn't make an accurate judgment on this horror film. But he didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he specifically asked Alain Ryder Jr.

Chen Ping'an......

Little Alain Ryder muttered the twisting name, remembering Billy King's words on the phone, and after a while, the cards in his hand were thrown on the table, and he said, "Are you interested in watching horror movies from the East?" ”

Is it necessary?

His card friends are either big directors, producers, and investors. Not long ago, Dark Horse International filmed "Terminator 2", leaving all the opportunities to Asian film companies and refusing to accept investment from American counterparts, which has caused a bit of public outrage.

So these people are not very interested in this "very strange" horror film. But since little Alain Ryder wants to see it, let's go together.

Only Donald Patery said: "Dongfang Chen's movies often have surprises. I like his director's "Ghost Love" and "City of Myths" very much, and maybe this horror film will be unusual. ”

Accompanied by Billikin, Chen Ping'an came to Little Alain Ryder's villa for the second time and to Little Alain Ryder's luxurious private screening room for the second time.

Seeing Billikin, little Alain Ryder wondered, "Your face is ugly, why?" ”

Billy King grinned, ugly, "Mr. Ryder, you'll understand after watching that movie." ”

Oh?

Little Alain Ryder became interested: "Chen, you have surprised me again this time?" ”

Chen Ping'an smiled: "Otherwise, why would I dare to ask for a higher share ratio?" ”

The Orientals are too treacherous!

Secretly cursing in his heart, little Alain Ryder said: "Then I'll wait and see." ”

Sitting in the private screening room again, Alain Ryder Jr. and a group of players sat in the most suitable position in the middle to watch the movie, and Chen Ping'an and Julia sat in the last row. When the movie started, Julia subconsciously grabbed Chen Ping'an's hand and leaned on his arms.

It's scary!

In the screening room of 20th Century Fox before, she had already seen this movie, and she was so scared that she threw herself into Chen Ping'an's arms many times and did not dare to look up, trembling all over.

This time, I followed Chen Ping'an to the private villa of Alain Ryder Jr., and met the famous Alan Ryder Jr., as well as several famous Hollywood producers and investors, these are all big names who can change the future of an actor, and the surprise in my heart can be imagined.

But the fear generated by watching "Midnight Bell" just now has not dissipated until now, so that the surprise has been greatly reduced.

At the beginning of the movie, it was the part where Yuan Jieying was scared to death at home. There are no ghosts, no aliens, no monsters, no death, just relying on the acting skills of Yuan Jieying and Luo Meiwei, plus lighting, sound effects, etc., to create a super terrifying atmosphere.

"Yikes!"

The moment Yuan Jieying turned around, Julia screamed and threw herself into Chen Ping'an's arms again. Chen Ping'an hugged her, patted her back gently, and whispered comfort in her ear. At the same time, looking at the reaction of Alain Ryder and others in the front row, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. R1152
