Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Justin has been at Twentieth Century Fox for so many years, what kind of people haven't met? Although Li Mingbao is not modest in speaking, and he is not the same as the Easterners he has befriended before, but he has the same thinking as Westerners, so he is strange, but he doesn't feel anything bad.

It's just that whether he believes Li Mingbao's statement or not, only he knows. The movies over there in Hong Kong, to be honest, Justin has seen them, but for the movies that are slashed around with knives, Justin doesn't have any special senses.

Even Li Xiaolong back then, he didn't think Li Xiaolong was so powerful. Although Li Xiaolong was indeed popular in Hollywood at the beginning, Li Xiaolong's movies are not mainstream in the big market of Hollywood. Not to mention Hong Kong movies, even Uncle Black's movies, or those strange movies in India, Justin has seen them all.

No way, as the deputy general manager of the line department of Twentieth Century Fox, since he got to this position, he has been constantly related to the door, Twentieth Century Fox needs to run so many movies every year, and not every movie is shot by his own company, so it is not surprising that foreign films are made.

For Li Mingbao's film, although he pays lip service to expectation, it is just talking, although Westerners are straightforward, but sometimes, they also know how to turn corners. Whether Li Mingbao's movie is brilliant or not can only be known after watching it.

When the movie started, Justin, who didn't care much about it at all, was a little surprised. Although Jiang Zhiqiang told him before that this movie was completely shot in the way of Hollywood. But Justin didn't believe that very much.

Because in his impression, in addition to their so-called kung fu movies, Justin has really never seen other Hong Kong movies. As for Jiang Zhiqiang's statement that this movie is played by actors from Hollywood, Justin didn't pay too much attention to it. Kung fu movies, whether they are shot by Hong Kong people or by Americans according to Hong Kong people's thinking, such movies are not of much value in Justin's opinion.

But after the picture of the movie appeared, Justin's senses changed radically, and although the movie had only been shown for a few minutes now, Justin felt a familiar taste.

Nice, very familiar taste. If he hadn't known that this movie was shot by Li Mingbao before, he wouldn't have believed that such a pure Hollywood film technique would be made by a Hong Kong person.

Even so, Justin couldn't help but ask Jiang Zhiqiang on the side: "Jiang, we are also old friends, you can sue me, is this movie really a movie produced by your company now?" Instead of taking the wrong dailies? ”

"Of course, Justin, I'm pretty sure that this movie was indeed invested and shot by our boss, although he is not the director, but he is the producer of this movie, and the style of the whole movie is completely according to his will, you see that kid, it was dug up by our boss. So you don't have to doubt the authenticity of this movie. Seeing Justin's suspicions, Jiang Zhiqiang was not only not unhappy, but secretly excited in his heart.

Because Justin can have such doubts, it means that he approves of the movie, otherwise it would not have been in doubt not long after the movie started. If Justin didn't approve of the film, then he would never be rude to ask such a question right now.

Hearing Jiang Zhiqiang's definite answer, Justin's mind was a little confused, and he couldn't help but say to himself: "Oh my God, maybe I really met a genius, a genius in movies." ”

Justin's self-talk became a reality after the plot of the film "Home Alone" gradually unfolded. Neither Li Mingbao nor Justin himself thought of a surprising coincidence.

And this fact lies in the fact that "Home Alone", which was produced nine years after the original version, will be decided by Justin now in the future. Li Mingbao didn't find these subtle things, and Justin naturally didn't know that he also enjoyed this movie nine years later in the original history, and now, Li Mingbao just advanced the time, and the effect of advance is even more shocking than the original.

Because when Justin saw half of the plot of the movie "Home Alone", he no longer cared about whether this movie was shot by Li Mingbao, a Hong Kong native, such a low-level question. He only has one thought now, and that is to take the film down, no matter what.

Because of this movie, it's really too much appetite for Justin. You must know that Justin's appetite is definitely not something that can be determined by his personal preference. On the contrary, when he feels that movies are on his appetite, his personal preferences only occupy a small part of his senses, and more ideas are actually distinguished from his professionalism.

The movie "Home Alone", without a doubt, is definitely full of the flavor of Hollywood movies, at least now that he has watched half of the movie seriously, Justin has not found anything that does not quite match the feeling.

Even the idea of the whole movie is very consistent with the mainstream of Hollywood, and the problem of children is generally in the United States. But Hollywood has never had a movie before, from the perspective of a child, these seemingly absurd, but in fact traceable things, are transferred to the movie screen.

Even if there have been movies of this kind, in terms of the real Cheng dΓΉ, it is not comparable to this movie at all. Why didn't Justin figure out why a Hong Kong man could portray the bits and pieces of American life so profoundly?

So at this time, Justin immediately asked the projectionist to pause the film first, and he now has countless questions to ask Li Mingbao, the film's producer.

When the movie was paused, Justin said to Li Mingbao with some excitement: "Lee, I think we need to talk about it now." ”

Li Mingbao was very puzzled by the fact that Justin inexplicably paused the movie when it was only halfway through. Although he is indeed full of confidence in his movie, Justin paused the movie at this time and said that he wanted to talk to himself, Li Mingbao didn't know whether it was good or bad.

"So Mr. Justin, what do we need to talk about? Can't you just wait for the movie to end? Or is it that my movie doesn't meet your appetite, Mr. Justin, so you paused? Li Mingbao asked.

"Oh no. No, to be honest, this movie was very much to my liking and far beyond my imagination. Yes, it's far out! The reason why I have suspended the screening of the movie now is because I have a lot of questions that I need to ask Mr. Li to answer, so as not to miss every shot of this wonderful movie, so I reluctantly made this decision, I hope Mr. Li you don't mind. Justin said incoherently.

Hearing Justin is not dissatisfied with his movie, but very satisfied, he has a lot of questions to ask himself. For such a situation, Li Mingbao is naturally willing to accept it, as long as Justin is satisfied, then the initiative in the next negotiation is in the hands of Li Mingbao, which is definitely good news for Li Mingbao.

It stands to reason that Justin, a person who can sit in the position of deputy general manager of the Twentieth Century Fox department, will not be so excited even if he sees a film he likes, because he is working at this time, and if he is excited, he will lose the initiative, and various problems will arise in the next negotiations.

But I have to admire Li Mingbao's fortune, Justin will also be the promoter of this movie in the future. And he supported this movie so vigorously nine years later, and now, nine years ago, he can't resist the shock brought by this movie.

Whether it is in terms of plot, connotation, or shooting techniques, the movie "Home Alone" has given Justin a bright feeling. Of course, this is not his delusion, after all, the film that was released in Hollywood after nine years will definitely be better than it is now in terms of the handling of shooting techniques, although such a gap is not obvious, and ordinary people can't feel it, but Justin is not an ordinary person.

As a senior executive of Twentieth Century Fox, Justin has a deep understanding of the trends of Hollywood as a whole. And it is with this understanding that Justin will obviously feel the difference in this movie. In addition, the plot connotation is creative, which is also completely in line with the mainstream, and now Hollywood has not released a film of the same type, from this point, Justin can see the potential value of this movie.

Therefore, at this time, Justin doesn't care whether his excitement will affect the next negotiations, at least in his opinion, whether he is excited or not, for such a movie, a little transfer of initiative is a trivial matter, but if this movie is not brought to the company by him, it is a big deal, which is more important, Justin can tell very clearly.

Seeing that Li Mingbao was not dissatisfied with his explanation, Justin said again: "Mr. Li, at this time, I am already convinced of what you said before that you have a unique talent in the film industry. It's hard to believe that you, a Hong Kong person, would grasp the thinking of us Americans so well, and accurately express such a connotation in the movie.

To be honest, I have the same child in my family. It's the same cuteness, the same love of pranks, so when I saw this movie, it was easy for me to find some common ground in my own experience and resonate with it. It's incredible that a movie can achieve such an effect. ”
