After talking to Mitsumi Fukuda, Shen Zhenghui was a little depressed, this feeling was what he didn't like the most, this feeling was like thinking he was the protagonist, but suddenly he found out that he was a supporting role in the script. That's it, but I'm still being supported by the protagonist. This made Shen Zhenghui start to doubt himself, but it was reasonable to think about it carefully, after all, if there were two traversers in this world, and they didn't know each other before, then in this world, there would inevitably be a male and female, and there was no third possibility—at least Shen Zhenghui hadn't thought of it before. But now it is obvious that Mitsumi Fukuda has created a third possibility, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, unless one male and one female, but, from Shen Zhenghui's feelings, he feels more often that he is the poor tigress.

What Mitsumi Fukuda said on the phone really counted, and soon, Zhou Xingxing called from Hong Kong, expressing his willingness to accept the director's position entrusted by Shen Zhenghui, but he was not interested in taking the money out to invest together, he just lowered his salary, and became a director and starring himself, the salary was compressed to 10 million US dollars, and the box office dividend reached 10%, I believe this is a very sincere price, if there is a spring item, this contract price can be fully achieved.

Perhaps it was Mitsumi Fukuda's relationship that played a role, when Shen Zhenghui sent this offer to Colombia with some trepidation, Colombia agreed to the price without hesitation, but Shen Zhenghui's entry into the bureau was restricted, and Colombia was willing to increase the investment to 90 million US dollars. Among them, Colombia contributed 50 million US dollars, Shen Zhenghui and Kasuga contributed 40 million US dollars, and Colombia promised to work hard to release it all over the world, of which Kasuga is only responsible for the Japanese market.

Capitalists are very efficient when making money, and Zhou Xingxing, who was in Hong Kong, soon received a request to quickly rush to Japan to form a team, and then go to the United States to form a larger team, although the producer was named Shen Zhenghui. But in reality, Colombia will send a producer to coordinate the filming of the entire film. Shen Zhenghui sent all the high-level directors under him to Hollywood with Zhou Xingxing to brush up on experience, Miyamoto and Zhou Xingxing have long worked together, Yuan Xiangren is an old acquaintance of Zhou Xingxing, and Lu Yang can speak multiple languages. It's a good assistant director. Shen Zhenghui paid the money. Let Zhou Xingxing toss this film.

For actors. He has always had some doubts, and some actors have a very high growth rate, such as Zhou Xingxing. His level and his nature have made him unable to continue to be an actor when he has grown to a certain level, he continues to break through, that is, to be a director, an international director, a big star, he not only uses the role to interpret himself, but also uses the whole movie to interpret himself.

Some actors may also become big stars among actors, but there is always a ceiling on his highest achievement, and even if he changes to become a capitalist and a big boss, it will be difficult to make a breakthrough. Of course, men who are favored by the goddess of art are always a little special, very neurotic.

Therefore, Shen Zhenghui had to give a good account of the three directors he sent, this time, Haruhi and Shen Zhenghui jointly invested 40 million US dollars, in order not to let the 40 million US dollars go down the drain, Shen Zhenghui repeatedly emphasized the work of the three assistant directors, they must assist the director Zhou Xingxing to complete the filming work, ensure the level of shooting, and also have to ensure that Zhou Xingxing himself is too serious, and his fastidious attitude does not affect the filming process.

"It's our first step into Hollywood, and it's very important to our company and to me, and I think it's very important to you. Of course, I'm not saying that if this film is successful, we'll have a foothold in Hollywood, it's not realistic at all, at most it's that we're off to a good start. But this doesn't mean anything, you have to see that Hong Kong's top director, Wu ...... "Shen Zhenghui was about to say that Director Wu did not recover half of the final cost of a giant film with an investment of 120 million, but suddenly he woke up to the fact that this director Wu is still in full swing in Hollywood, although "Mission Impossible 2" was scolded, but the box office was hot.

"Every film that Director Wu shoots is walking on thin ice, and if he fails in one, no one will be willing to invest in him in the next one. You can ask him for confirmation of the matter. Shen Zhenghui thought about rounding his words, "So these reminders I gave you don't mean to let you remember this bitter past, I hope you can always maintain a modest and cautious style, and put all your thoughts on the filming of the movie, of course, there is always a chance to drink the celebration wine." ”

Miyamoto has always been Japanese, and at this time, his face was stern, as if he was going to war. He has been with Takeshi Kitano in the United States, and he still knows a little bit about that side, and he knows that if he fails this time, it will be difficult to get back up, and he has just succeeded in the Japanese market, and he immediately has the opportunity to try his skills in Hollywood, although he is not a full director, but this is a rare opportunity. Miyamoto himself is not unaware of the shortcomings of his work, but his success in Japan has made him deliberately avoid this issue. This time, Colombia was able to accept Stephen Chow as the director of the investment film, and in his opinion, the worldwide recognition of "Shaolin Football" was an important factor, and he himself was eager to break through the limitations of Japan and enter the world film industry.

Yuan Xiangren's thoughts are much simpler, his work is much simpler, and he doesn't think much. He knows his strengths very well, and he also knows his situation, his success is tied to Hasuga's movies, the more successful the kung fu movie, the easier the kung fu instructor will be, so he doesn't have the psychology of gaining and losing, but wants to do a good job.

Lu Yang, like Miyamoto, has great expectations for himself, and at the same time has great ambitions. His previous success has also encouraged his ambitions, and all of a sudden the opportunity to come out of Hollywood is simply a green road, if this film is successful, maybe he will only need to lie down and eat in the future, at least there should be no problem at all when he returns to China.

Seeing that his subordinates were all mobilized by himself, Shen Zhenghui was also happy. Zhou Xingxing brought his assistant to Japan and briefly met Shen Zhenghui. After talking, he recognized Shen Zhenghui's directorial configuration, and in addition, he also asked Shen Zhenghui for a more formal script. Although this script has been written, Shen Zhenghui is also ready to use it, because Zhou Xingxing will definitely not shoot in strict accordance with the script, he will put his ideas into it little by little during the filming process, and then transform the whole film into his own style. In this regard, Shen Zhenghui can only provide one assistance.

The co-shooting of a huge film with an investment of 90 million still stirred up some waves, especially the envious eyes of the Hong Kong film industry. But after all, Hollywood is too high-end in the eyes of many people. It's too atmospheric. They feel that they can't cling to it, so they just stay on their lips with envy.

The bosses of several companies in Hong Kong, such as Lin Jian, feel very entangled, in a group of people in Hong Kong. He was the first to come into contact with Shen Zhenghui. But now it looks. He actually cooperated most closely with Zhou Xingxing and threw himself aside, and the fat boss couldn't help complaining. threw tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars to shoot Hong Kong movies, and then funded Zhou Xingxing to shoot movies in the United States with tens of millions of dollars, Boss Lin's eyes were almost red. But he is a smart person, and he knows that it is more beneficial for him to have a good relationship with Shen Zhenghui than to make it stiff, he called Shen Zhenghui, nominally "Infernal Affairs" will be released in September, hoping that Shen Zhenghui will be able to attend the premiere at that time, in fact, he wants to test whether Shen Zhenghui is still interested in Hong Kong movies.

Shen Zhenghu readily agreed, after all, he had no intention of starting work for a long time after sending out the assistant directors, and on the other hand, he was very curious about what "Infernal Affairs" could achieve in the end. The butterfly effect produced by Shen Zhenghui has made the mainland market have a certain positive attitude towards co-produced films, but "Infernal Affairs 1" is obviously not a co-production, and its box office share in the mainland will be much lower, but it is better than delaying the screening and losing to piracy, or not being able to release it, and China Film Company has made a good profit.

Yongsheng's proprietress is naturally much more popular than Lin Jian, but the results of "Shaolin Football" are there, and the box office of "Shaolin Football", which continues to spread good news from Europe, fully illustrates the value of Zhou Xingxing. Naturally, Mrs. Xiang could only predict in a sour tone: Sooner or later, Boss Shen will not be able to stand the white-eyed wolf who is greedy for money!

After the circulation of several people, these words finally reached Shen Zhenghui's ears, and Shen Zhenghui could only smile at this. To achieve a certain level, making money is not a preference at all.

Of course, Mrs. Xiang doesn't want to argue with Shen Zhenghui, on the contrary, she also very much hopes to please Shen Zhenghui, "Shaolin Football" has won more than 3 billion yen at the box office in Japan, which is more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars, and then the old film "Journey to the West" can also have more than 2 billion yen, which is simply unscientific, before and after, Zhou Xingxing's movie won about 400 million Hong Kong dollars in Japan, which fully shows how big a market Japan, the second largest economy, is. So Hong Kong people were carried away by the box office, feeling that the United States could not rush in, and Japan was also a good choice. But the Japanese have very unique tastes, and there are only a few actors they recognize, and none of them are in Hong Kong. At this moment, the importance of channels is reflected.

Of course, it's not that they didn't want to bypass Kasuga to contact other Japanese distributors, but for the Japanese who have always played themselves, they don't care much about movies from other places at all, and they don't care about Hong Kong films that were once tall and now in decline.

Spring plays two-way input, external and internal, many people are blinded by the results of Kasuga's external output, and the results of internal input are not so outstanding in comparison. What's more, Kasuga has a Chinese shareholder, and he still has a lot of power, so he can do this, and other film distribution companies simply follow the rules and have their eyes on Hollywood. The Japanese who are interested in investing in Chinese films are all looking at the mainland's literary films, and the young Japanese writers of Hong Kong films are not too much of it.

Like Hong Kong people, the Japanese are also concerned about Kasuga entering the Hollywood market, but it is actually a Chinese, which makes many people puzzled, and they have questioned whether Kasuga is still not a Japanese company. At this time, news came from the United States that the crew that had been named "The Green Hornet" needed a yellow actress as the second heroine.

Originally, Zhou Xingxing hoped to be able to choose the supporting actress among Chinese or Hong Kong actors, or the second heroine. He even figured out the way of guò auditions, choosing this actor from among ordinary people. But Colombia simply can't accept this approach, and when will it be picked? The producer took out a list of Hollywood's yellow actresses and asked Zhou Xingxing to pick one at random. But these famous female stars are too old to meet Zhou Xingxing's requirements for longing for first love and Aquarius. The two sides argued, and with the mediation of the assistant director, it was finally decided that Kasuga would recommend an actress. For distribution reasons, the producers wanted to be a Japanese girl.

Although this news has caused a whirlwind in the Japanese entertainment industry, everyone knows that the actress recommended by Kasuga can only be Queens, because of an affair with Shen Zhenghui. Tomoaki Aonuma's voice is high.

"Did Director Zhou say that there were any specific requirements?"

"Except for the pure looks. It seems that there is only one requirement for Aquarius! Lu Yang on the other end of the phone was a little embarrassed, "If it really doesn't work, Aries can do it too." ”

Shen Zhenghui scratched his head, "Is there anything else?" ”

"The work of movement direction is very difficult to carry out. The white and black actors here are just too hard to train. If you can. Let's transfer a group of action directors and action actors from the company, Yuan is too tired to guide a person. ”

"Okay." Shen Zhenghui replied succinctly. Of course, Yuan Xiangren is not alone, he led a team. But as the head of the team, it's normal to be too tired to be busy by yourself.

Shen Zhenghui felt that he should go to Queens to have a look, he hadn't been there for a long time, and it seemed that he should brush up on the zài feeling. I made up my mind to contact Nazumi Horiguchi and Ayaka Kuroishi, and when the two arrived at Queens, they were a little surprised to find that the staff was unusually neat, and it seemed that all the artists had arrived.

"What's going on?" Shen Zhenghui asked Nazumi Horiguchi, who was stared at by a large number of beautiful women, and Shen Zhenghui felt like he had entered a wolf's den.

Nazumi Horiguchi went to ask Ayaka Kuroishi, "It's all spread, the crew is going to choose an actress to go to Hollywood, so ......" Ayaka Kuroishi spread her hand.

Shen Zhenghui, who originally wanted to choose well, was completely uninterested, "That's it," he thought for a while and said, "Give me a list of people with acting experience, of course, it's best to know English and Cantonese." ”

Kuroishi Ayaka showed an embarrassed expression, "It's already rare to know English, and if you know Cantonese, you can't pick anyone out at all." Do you have to be so demanding about the language? ”

"That's why Japanese actors can't be internationalized!" Shen Zhenghui pursed his lips, "I remember that Asakura and Crane Dance are not bad, call them over." ”

Kuroishi Ayaka was a little puzzled, but still nodded,

"By the way, Yugali Oshima and Goofy and his wife, please call them over together." Shen Zhenghui's gaze swept through the crowd, and he saw that someone was waving at him, and at a glance, it was Fujitang Xiangcheng.

"Fujido also called me, and if the others don't even understand English, forget it." Shen Zhenghui walked towards the office.

Asakura and Tsurumai are very good friends, but they are still a little nervous when they are called together, and both of them have a feeling that they don't know how to face each other, but soon they are not embarrassed, because Fujido Kazuki was called over with them and was led to the office.

Ayaka Kuroishi was scolding the others, "Spend more time studying, your English is so bad and you still want to go to the United States, what are you going to do?" Shame on you? ”

Those who were a little dissatisfied because they chose people casually had to leave with their heads down at this moment.

Asakura and Tsurumai stood beside Fujido Kazuki, feeling the same pressure, and the two of them were a little bitter at this time. Because the surface of Fujitang Xiangcheng is a little too calm and calm, those rumors that have spread back from Hong Kong are that she and Shen Zhenghui already have a leg, and the staff who have participated in the crew of "Slaying the Wolf" are all rumors in private, many people believe that this is true, especially Shen Zhenghui also took her to China, although it is said to be a bodyguard, but it seems to confirm her identity.

As soon as he entered the door, unlike Asakura and Tsurumai bowing and saluting, Fujitang Xiangcheng cleared his throat and shouted, "Shen Jun, hello!" "Instead of President Sasaki, as the other two people called, especially if she speaks Chinese.

Shen Zhenghui rolled his eyes, not knowing what attitude to use to face Fujitang Xiangcheng, so he said, "It's better if you can speak Cantonese, how about English?" ”

"It's okay...... Fujido Kazuki replied, but she was quite passable, Shen Zhenghui could barely understand it, and Asakura and Tsurumai couldn't hear it in English.

"Hurry up and step it up." Shen Zhenghui said, let the three of them sit down first.

The little girls are a little nervous, don't they say that there is only one female character?

Then Oshima Yugali and Goofy knocked on the door and walked in, and Nazumi Horiguchi naturally followed and stood behind Shen Zhenghui.

Yugali Oshima looked at the others in the room and asked, "President, what's the matter?" ”

"The crew of "The Green Hornet" not only lacks heroines, but also lacks a lot of action actors and action directors, you and Mr. Gao take these three little girls to the United States, let Director Zhou choose the heroine by himself, and the others stay there to cooperate with Director Yuan's work."

Goofy was a little surprised, "Are they all girls?" ”

His wife gave him a blank look.

Shen Zhenghui pouted, "We don't have any actors!" (To be continued......)
