Nick Anderson met Shen in Los Angeles, where he deigned to wait for Shen in an RV instead of a hotel.

"Thank you, Mr. Anderson." Shen Zhenghui shook his hand first, "Thank you for your arrangement, this is the smoothest trip to the United States." ”

"I hope you like it," Nick Anderson replied, tilting his head and asking Shen Zhenghui, "Champagne or coffee?" ”

"Soda will do," Shen Zhenghui replied with a smile, "Given what I'm going to talk to you about in a moment, I think I'd better be cautious and not get drunk or get too excited." ”

"Oh, that's not quite what we think of you." Nick Anderson handed over a bottle of soda, "I'm still interested in what you said about the heavy dà incident!" "I thought it would be Miss Fukuda who would come over to deal with Colombia." ”

"Yes, she was supposed to come, but," he said, spreading his hand, "I offered to ask, and he agreed, and there was nothing to do anyway, and the main job was on Miss Mason." ”

"Oh, speaking of her." Nick Anderson owes a debt, "Angela originally wanted to meet you herself, but accepting a behemoth like Columbia must have an adjustment period for her, so I'm very sorry that she can't come to meet her boss in person." ”

"You're joking," replied Shen Zhenghui, "it's because we need Miss Mason very much, not the other way around." ”

"No, I think it's the opposite." Nick Anderson replied, "Angela is desperate for this kind of opportunity, but he's not the kind of person who would take the liberty to try it himself, and you gave her a great opportunity." ”

"She's going to do just fine." Shen Zhenghui said.

"I hope so." Nick Anderson is quite reserved.

The car fell silent all of a sudden, and in the empty space, there were only two people, Shen Zhenghui and Nick Anderson. The atmosphere seemed a little eerie.

"To be honest, this time I actually want you to do me a favor." Shen Zhenghui broke the silence and said.

"It's nice to talk about things in the car, and I like it, it's very safe." Nick Anderson responded, though he tilted his head, "What's busy?" Could it be that this is Angela's swap of positions? ”

"Nope. It's not. Shen Zhenghui hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Although the matter is a little difficult to talk about, it is obvious that there is no exchange relationship in the matter. He said as he took some materials out of his bag and handed them to Nick Anderson, "Please take a look, I hope these things will be published in influential media." ”

"Oh?" Nick Anderson took the material quite curiously, the material has been translated into English in line with his reading habits, although he does not have a deep understanding of China, but for the materials handed over by Shen Zhenghui, Nick Anderson still showed a surprised expression after looking at it. Then he skimmed through the headline cursoryly, flipped through a few pages quickly, leaned back in his chair, lost in thought, and after a few more moments he opened his eyes, "This is not a good job. "The victors don't thank me." And the loser ......"

"The losing side has no time to take revenge on you," Shen replied. He narrowed his eyes, "This doesn't make you get involved in China's politics with your bare hands," he licked his lips, "It's all because the United States is an open and free country, so the black material of the leaders of any country or region is known to the free people in the free country, which is the superiority of the democratic system." Shen Zhenghui said solemnly, "Because of China's important international status, it is only a coincidence that the American people are particularly concerned about the personal affairs of Chinese leaders." ”

Nick Anderson narrowed his eyes, and he opened his mouth. Finally, he couldn't help but say with some annoyance, "The essence of your open-mouthed nonsense is not inferior to that of a member of Congress," he pouted, "If you are really looking for openness and freedom, you should give the material to WikiLeaks, not like this." He waved his hand, "Believe me, I know much better than you about the urine of the American political circle, if the foreign media actively publishes the black materials of the American political family and leads the political family to step down, his opponent will definitely not thank those media, because maybe these black materials are provided by him." Of course, the role of the media in the U.S. has been balanced," he said, "and I mean it's bastards on both sides, and sometimes you have to choose a less bad one, but his less bad one most likely depends on his campaign money." ”

"I don't know much about China," Nick Anderson said, "but I've heard that the Chinese media is monolithic, so the role of the Chinese media is not balanced, and therefore the involvement of foreign media does not have the same impact on China as it does in the United States." He flicked the thick stack of materials in his hand, "This means that this is simply an off-the-board move, and for Chinese politicians, this is the equivalent of flipping the table." ”

"You know China very well, it's not that you are modest enough to think that you only know a little bit about it." Shen Zhenghui was surprised.

"I understand a little," Nick Anderson looked a little proud, "I'm good at using history as a comparison, there is nothing new in human history, and I personally feel that China's politics is still confined to the general bureaucracy, therefore," he paused, "It's still a factional government under a monistic structure, and the rules are still being perfected, but they are quite basic." ”

"Yes," Shen Zhenghui licked his tongue, "and this technique will soon come in handy." ”

"Huh?"

"Don't you know?" "Right now," he smiled, "but it's also funny, because sometimes certain strict, formal, or entertaining, informal interviews and reports will promote the public's understanding of the leadership, even gossip news." Shen Zhenghui said, "The Internet has reached this point where as long as you care, it is enough to have a general understanding of someone's life background and the people involved." ”

"You really understand the power of the Internet." Nick Anderson narrowed his eyes, and he raised the information in his hand, "So this ......"

"It's better to do three times and do a continuous report." Shen Zhenghui replied.

"Okay," Nick Anderson nodded, "for the sake of the future Chinese leader and Angela's face." ”

Shen Zhenghui finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you so much."

"No, I have my requests." He chuckled, "Are you here this time to announce the production plan of the prequel to Apprentice Magic?" ”

"Yes," Shen Zhenghui nodded, "This is actually a completely independent story, and the structure is quite grandiose. The investment is huge. Of course, we believe that Miss Mason's coordination skills can be left to her to operate. ”

"You've misunderstood me." Nick Anderson waved his hand, "Aside from you, there aren't many people in Hollywood who can make a story with such a grand theme, and I didn't mean to make this movie." ”

"Huh?"

"I want the rights to the game."

"Huh?" Shen Zhenghui was very surprised, "This is ...... Very reasonable, very reasonable price. "The author is not currently selling the rights to the game. ”

"I know it's in your hands." Nick Anderson smiled. "I have to explain," he paused, staring at Shen Zhenghui tightly, "the copyright of the game is for the next generation of consoles," he smiled at Shen Zhenghui, "You should have already experienced this way of playing." ”

"Huh?" Shen Zhenghui was very surprised, "Is that system now able to achieve large-scale access?" ”

"This is a great step forward for humanity," Nick Anderson unashamedly declared. He looked at Shen Zhenghui, "I also need a partner. Especially influential in the Asian region, there is nothing better than "Apprentice of Magic" to do publicity. ”

Shen Zhenghui was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't show half a point on his face and mouth, "You are going to open a new era!" ”

"No, it's all for myself." Nick Anderson replied, but then changed the subject. "I've actually collected a lot of famous movie rights, game rights, and anime rights," he says, "and the plan was that the virtual world had to be exciting enough for humans to swim in their own imagination." That's what we were meant to be. He took a deep breath.

"So it seems. Mr. Sauron has gone astray! ”

"Not necessarily." Nick Anderson said, but then he didn't say much about Sauron.

Shen Zhenghui met Angela in the hotel. Mason, this young lady quickly entered her own work state, and after meeting Shen Zhenghui, she submitted her work report to Shen Zhenghui, so that Shen Zhenghui had to emphasize that the original intention of his trip was not to supervise the work of Colombia, he just came to sign some agreements related to Colombia on behalf of Kasuga and himself, and the sequel to "Magic Apprentice" is in the list of news as a task to improve Colombia's performance. In addition, in the future, with the help of Colombia's production capabilities and distribution channels in Hollywood, strengthening cultural exchanges between China, Japan and the United States is just a superficial article. More practically, the work to promote the release and distribution of "FateZero" in North America.

Given that FateZero's production was overdue, and that the post-production was much more demanding than expected, it was impossible to get it on file in 2009, so FateZero wanted to be able to book the summer vacation of 2010.

"I think the summer vacation of 2010 is a good schedule, let's see what films have been made, "Iron Man 2", "**City 2", "Shrek 4", in comparison, it is really not a wise move to release in the fall of 2009." Angela Mason was caught up in her own work, "And at first I didn't believe that you would be able to shoot and produce this year, unless you are the director." She made an exaggerated expression, "Of course, even so, your progress has exceeded my expectations, and now the shooting has been completed and the post-production process has begun." Shooting 3D movies can also be so fast, if you come to Hollywood, you will definitely be robbed. ”

"Actually, we still have a little finishing scene, but my scene has already been filmed, director Miyamoto is working on the last shot, and our post-production zuò has already begun." Shen Zhenghui paused, "However, the animation department has launched two 3D films, and the manpower is a little tight for a while. ”

"Animation? Two parts? 3D？ Miss Mason seemed intrigued, "I should go to Japan." ”

"Welcome, you can take a look at the effect of FateZero and see if it appeals to Americans and Europeans."

"I'm really looking forward to Swift. Taylor plays the table of King Arthur. "Angela. Mason responded, "I believe the box office in Japan will be enough for you to start the sequel plan." ”

"No, no," Shen Zhenghui hurriedly waved his hand, "We are still looking forward to the box office in Europe and the United States and the global box office." ”

"Can China release it?"

"It's probably going to be a few days late, it's not too much of a problem." Shen Zhenghui said, "Some of the footage may be deleted. ”

"Hehe," Mason smiled, "as your first work released for the first time since the change of ownership, it's still quite exciting, and I think it can at least reach the level of the first part of 'Apprentice of Magic'." ”

"It's a film I'm producing," Shen corrected, but he also said, "If I can reach the box office results of the first part, I should be snickering, which is also a great encouragement for Miyamoto." ”

"Aren't you going to train a few Hollywood directors?" Angela Mason asked, "A lot of people asked me if you wanted to hire an assistant director." ”

"Hehe," Shen Zhenghui smiled, "The condition for me to recruit an assistant director now is to have an understanding of the history and culture of Asia, at least the countries in East Asia." ”

"It's a really harsh condition," Nick Anderson said, holding up his glass, "we should have a toast." ”

"There will be such people." Angela. Mason said, "It's not uncommon for Americans to know China and Japan and want to be directors at the same time. ”

"It's hard to have one in Hollywood." Nick Anderson replied, changing the subject, "We should think about how to hold a press conference." ”

Angela Mason was confident about this, "I've already arranged it," she said, staring at Shen Zhenghui with sparkling eyes, "You just don't know how much Hollywood is expecting you right now, you and Peter Jackson are the directors that the audience is looking forward to the most, and of course, Cameron, whose work is about to be released at the end of the year." How many people are disappointed by not filming the Apprentice of Magic prequel but FateZero, and they can expect to watch the entire series as quickly as they would watch Apprentice of Magic. But even so, everyone thinks you'll be able to get the prequel to The Apprentice of Magic ahead of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit, and Harry Potter won't be finished yet. ”

Shen Zhenghui touched his forehead contrivedly, "It's so stressful." (To be continued......)

PS: "The Return of the Great Sage" is really a conscience drama, but the disadvantage is that it exploded in the end, and it ended in a few hits, which disappointed my expectations for the Armageddon.
