Chapter Seventy-Two: Two-Line Development

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

Now little Jason is only four or five years old, a child of this age. He doesn't have any big dreams at all, whether he is a director or an actor, it doesn't matter to him, because his final choice is in the hands of his father Ivan, not in the hands of his little one.

If you want to say that Ivan is indeed a very good talker, I didn't think of it before, but now Li Mingbao has proposed to let his child be the starring role, then this matter is basically settled. Anyway, now children don't have to go to school, and little Jason also has a certain ** for acting.

Respecting Jason's choice is also a reasonable reason. Of course, for Ivan, the more plausible reason is that Li Mingbao's remuneration is quite good, a full $100,000 salary, which is very good for Jason, a child who has never performed.

Isn't that good! When Li Mingbao was in Hong Kong, he asked Fan Shaohuang to play the leading role, and the cost was only two or three hundred thousand, and most of the money was given dividends later, and the salary could be said to be pitiful. Fan Shaohuang is still a person with acting experience, Li Mingbao gave him so much, and Jason Li Mingbao gave a salary of 100,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to 800,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is enough to invite a popular male star to act in Hong Kong.

It's a pity that this is not Hong Kong, but Hollywood. Li Mingbao originally didn't expect to give so much, at most it meant thirty or fifty thousand, which was already very kind. But who called Ivan a character who wants money to die, and if it is less than 100,000, he would rather the crew continue to wait.

Waiting for Ivan, although it is not a good thing, because he has to be bound to the crew of "Home Alone", it can't be said how bad it is. After all, he has already collected the money, and he is not afraid that Li Mingbao will repay the debt, plus he is not a popular director, there are endless scenes filmed every day, and if he waits for a few months, Ivan will not mind too much.

But Li Mingbao can't wait, although the United States is better than Hong Kong in all aspects of the film industry, there is one thing that Hollywood is definitely not as good as Hong Kong, that is, the degree of filmmaking.

Wang Jing can create a high efficiency that can be done in a week to produce a movie, and put it on the side of the United States, such a degree is a miracle. And it's not a good miracle, Li Mingbao really dares to play in the United States, the first one who doesn't agree will be these actors, and behind the scenes, it may not take two days for Li Mingbao to receive lawyer's letters from various trade unions in the film industry.

This is definitely not Li Mingbao's imagination, but a real thing. Everything is good on the side of the United States, especially the system is perfect. The negative impact of the perfect system is that the filming time of the movie is strictly controlled. Every day you can shoot less, but definitely not from time.

This is not a problem that Li Mingbao can solve by giving some overtime pay, because even if Li Mingbao gets all the people in the crew, those various associations that have nothing to do will dig up this matter and then fight Li Mingbao.

Facing these associations alone is enough of a headache, not to mention the huge legal fees of fighting a lawsuit with these associations, which simply outweigh the losses. So in order for the film to be released at the specified time, Li Mingbao had to leave as much shooting time as possible.

If you can't rush work here, then you have to work slowly and carefully, what Ivan doesn't mind, Li Mingbao is a hundred minds. So obviously, Ivan treated Li Mingbao with the mentality of slaughtering a fat sheep, and Li Mingbao also had to swallow this bitter fruit. Of course, in the face of Ivan, Li Mingbao is not without any means of countermeasures.

He directly bought out Jason's next few films, and the cost was about the same as the current price. In the future, after Jason relied on "Home Alone" to become popular in Hollywood, these low-priced film contracts in Li Mingbao's hands were white flowers, and Li Mingbao would like to see if Ivan could still smile as brightly as he does now.

Ivan didn't pay attention to Li Mingbao's purchase of his own children's film contract. It's not that Ivan's vision is not long-term enough, but because he is not optimistic about Li Mingbao at all. It is not easy for a Westerner to get ahead in Hollywood, and strength also requires luck, so in this case, it is possible to become a lucky person.

Li Mingbao wants to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood as an Oriental, such a thing has never been born, how can Ivan believe that Li Mingbao will succeed? Since Li Mingbao will not succeed, even if he signs a contract for his child, what is the point? Can you still hope that when Li Mingbao is not successful, his film will be successful? That's.

If Ivan had confidence in Li Mingbao, then he would not have offered such a sky-high price, and when he talked about his children's film contract with Li Mingbao, he would not have offered a price of 100,000 US dollars. Opening such a price was originally the intention of slaughtering fat sheep, because he never thought that he would continue to cooperate with Li Mingbao.

Oriental people come to Hollywood, and Li Mingbao is not alone, there are many rich and capable people, so many people have fallen into the sand, Li Mingbao's prospects, of course, will not be much better, rather than looking forward to future cooperation, it is better to get a vote, anyway, it is a fat sheep, not slaughtered for nothing.

The last protagonist finally got it, and the crew of Li Mingbao's "Home Alone" was officially established at this time. In Hollywood, of course, you don't have to worship God when you turn on the camera like in Hong Kong, and for Americans, they don't believe in such a tune.

So after the personnel arrived, there was no need to prepare anything, and the filming of "Home Alone" began on the second day after the contract was signed, and the official filming was completed, Li Mingbao could not be as leisurely as a few days ago, although he was not the director of this movie, but as a producer, if you want to grasp a good play, you naturally need to follow the crew.

Only in this way can you know whether the director is shooting movies according to his own will. Especially for Li Mingbao, this movie, as a movie that made him a good start to Hollywood, must not allow failure, so the color is not very good. For the sake of his own prospects, Li Mingbao cannot relax.

After the filming, Li Mingbao followed the crew for a few days, and Li Mingbao did not watch it in vain these days. Although Ivan wants money to die, when it comes to professionalism, it is still quite good, and there have been no accidents in the footage taken in the past few days.

The so-called accident is naturally that Ivan added his own private goods when he was filming the movie. For such things, Li Mingbao has always hated it. No one likes a simple movie to be made into a hodgepodge. In the director who can mix private goods without affecting the style of the film, Li Mingbao only knows one until now, that is Chen Xiaodong, but that is just an example, whether there will be such a character in Hollywood, Li Mingbao doesn't know, but he knows that Ivan is definitely not such a character.

Therefore, what Li Mingbao values most is the consistency of the film style. And Ivan is clearly doing well now. After receiving a lot of dollars from Li Mingbao, Ivan consciously regarded himself as a filming machine, what kind of effect Li Mingbao wanted, what kind of effect Ivan shot Li Mingbao for, for the dollar, for money, art or something, that was not a matter for Ivan at all.

Originally, Li Mingbao wanted to watch this movie until the crew was finished, which was in line with Li Mingbao's thoughts, after all, this movie is too important, and many plans in the future will start in this movie.

But Jiang Zhiqiang is a person who can't be idle, since Li Mingbao asked him to show in Hollywood, he is not too embarrassed to show off in front of Li Mingbao if he doesn't make some achievements. So when Li Mingbao was busy with the crew of "Home Alone", Jiang Zhiqiang took the two of them and began to connect with An Le's old relationship.

Regarding the connections borrowed from An Le, Jiang Zhiqiang didn't feel anything wrong. Even Jiang Zhiqiang's eldest brother did not object. After all, An Le's connections are the root of life for An Le, but for Li Mingbao, the value is just like that.

Jiang Zhiqiang is now following Li Mingbao, or he will find out some of his own value, and when Li Mingbao's influence in Hollywood expands in the future, Jiang Zhiqiang's status in Li Mingbao's team will naturally decline in the future.

Jiang Zhiqiang's eldest brother can't give Jiang Zhiqiang's An Le, but Jiang Zhiqiang is his own brother anyway, borrowing connections, there is no loss for An Le, so it should be a gift to his younger brother.

Of course, Jiang Zhiqiang's eldest brother actually has another meaning, Li Mingbao is now borrowing An Le's connections, if Li Mingbao's career grows big in the future, they have such a relationship with An Le, maybe they will be able to use it at any time.

In case Li Mingbao really makes a name for himself in the future and becomes a storage zĂ i like Zou Daheng, they will be happy under the big tree, and they will enjoy the shade. Partnering with a billionaire is a good deal for Anle.

In such a situation where both parties were willing, Jiang Zhiqiang's actions became very smooth. Although Jiang Zhiqiang's old friends on the Hollywood side were a little puzzled by Jiang Zhiqiang's sudden departure from the family business and joining another person's business, when Jiang Zhiqiang said that the boss he was following now was a billionaire, those people also became enthusiastic.

Hong Kong's billionaires are multimillionaires on the side of the United States, but even multimillionaires are also big names for those who do not control the main business in the film company.
