After talking to Lei Shidong, Xu Guanwu packed up his mood and went to meet the legendary director, Steve. Spielberg.

"Ah Wu, this director is really so powerful, is it worth you to run to see him in person?" Zhao Yazhi asked suspiciously.

In Hollywood, the status of producers is quite high, they are the ones who control the whole film, and the director is just the person who serves them and is responsible for directing and shooting.

"In Hollywood, the vast majority of directors have to look at the faces of the producers, but there are still a small number of directors who need the producers to look at their faces and do things." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "The one we are going to see today is one of those small group of people. ”

"Is he that good? weishenme hasn't heard of it before? Zhao Yazhi said suspiciously.

She read a lot of Hollywood movie magazines, and none of them published a report on the director.

"He's not yet famous, but he's got a lot of talent." Xu Guanwu smiled, "Trust me, when this movie is released, you will know how powerful he is." ”

Zhao Yazhi heard Xu Guanwu say this, and her face couldn't help but show a suspicious expression.

……

Take the car to Richard. Darryl & David. In the studio set up by Brown, Xu Guanwu glanced up and down at this company, and saw that this company was really small and pitiful, compared with the earliest Xu Brothers company.

There are only four people in the staff, including Richard and David, and they are crammed into a car warehouse of more than 20 square meters, which is a leather bag company with the front and back of the car.

"Ah Wu, you invested 10 million US dollars last year, did you give it to this company?" Zhao Yazhi frowned and looked around for a week, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that this was a scam.

"That's the way the United States is, don't look at a few people, the office is still a car warehouse, but there is unlimited development potential." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "Don't underestimate this kind of car warehouse, many large companies in the United States have developed from car warehouses. Like Apple, YouTube, and so on. ”

Wait, Apple doesn't seem to have come out yet, and YouTube won't appear until the new millennium......

Xu Guanwu hurriedly closed his mouth, not daring to talk nonsense and leak the secret of heaven.

Fortunately, Zhao Yazhi didn't care at all, she looked at the humble office, and there was a scrutinizing look in her eyes.

"Stanley!" David stepped forward and shook his hand affectionately.

"Why didn't you see Richard?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.

"He went to negotiate with 20th Century Fox, and although his father is still the chairman, business is business, and there is no family affection to talk about." David laughed.

Xu Guanwu nodded, "I want to go and meet Stephen, is it convenient now?" ”

"Convenient, why is it inconvenient? If you, an investor, want to meet the director, it's not just a phone call. I'm going to call him right now and ask him to come over. David said with a smile.

"No, what if he's busy. I think we'd better go and look for him. Xu Guanwu waved his hand.

"Stanley, you're going to spoil him like that." David shook his head.

In Hollywood, the producer is the one who is really in power, and the director is just a tool to make money in their eyes.

If you're a big-name director who can bring them huge box office profits, then they'll treat you like a god.

But if several movies fail at the box office in succession, then there is almost no room to turn over.

Many directors who were in their prime, because the box office did not meet the requirements, Zuihou fell into a situation where there was no film to make.

Hollywood, which is mainly profit-seeking, is such a cold and realistic situation.

"Liu Bei paid homage to Zhuge Liang, and he had to look at the thatched house three times. Now it doesn't matter if we drive over to see him. Besides, we're not busy right now, so it's time for tourism. Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

David. Seeing Xu Guanwu's insistence, Brown had no choice but to accompany him.

Steve. Spielberg is now working on Jaws in a Hollywood film editing studio. Although it is only to participate in the submission of opinions, it is already very rare.

Many directors in Hollywood are not even qualified to participate in editing after making a film according to the script.

It's like working hard to conceive a baby for ten months, but after giving birth to a child, I don't even have the qualifications to raise it.

This also made many directors indignant.

……

"Steve, did you think 20th Century Fox would invest in my movie?"

When Xu Guanwu was in David. Accompanied by Brown, when he came to the editing room in a hurry, he suddenly heard someone in the room say.

"George, it's hard to say anything like that, maybe they'll invest. I think your idea is great, and if 20th Century Fox had any vision, it would definitely be your movie. ”

"Really?! But what I heard was not encouraging, and 20th Century Fox was on the verge of bankruptcy. I'm afraid it's hard to come up with enough money for me to shoot. ”

"Don't worry, George, your "American Style Painting" is so popular that it has already shown your strength. Even if 20th Century Fox doesn't invest, other studios will appreciate your strength. ”

"Alas! If I, like you, find such a Chinese guy who is not short of money, then I will be happy. ”

"Trust me, you'll find it."

"Ahem!" David couldn't help coughing, and smiled at Xu Guanwu with an embarrassed face.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but rub his nose, he couldn't imagine that his generosity would be exchanged for such a dirty title - a Chinese broadie, who sounds like a local tyrant who is not bad for money.

The people in the house were startled when they heard the movement outside, and they heard the sound of gurgling from inside.

"Steve, George, come out for a moment, someone wants to meet you." David shouted through the door.

"Who wants to see us? David, we're cutting at the right time. Steve shouted in displeasure.

"It's the guy you just mentioned." David yelled with an embarrassed expression.

The room was stunned for a moment, and then the door opened a thin crack, and two young men squeezed out of the crack.

Xu Guanwu knew that the editing room needed a dark environment, so he hurriedly turned sideways to make way out.

The two young men quickly closed the door, "David, who wants to see me?" "Steve. Spielberg asked.

Xu Guanwu looked at the young version of Steve carefully, to be honest, he was a little uglier at this moment than in later generations.

Although he is a little older and has a beard on his face, he has the charm of a mature man.

Now Steve's face is snow-white and clean, with long hippie hair, the whole person is unkempt, and he does not have the temperament of an artist, and at first glance, he thinks he is a street urchin.

The young man beside him, on the other hand, had a round face, a very short chin and a long mustache, and looked slightly funny.

"This is the investor of Jaws, Stanley. Xu, this is the director of "Jaws", master. Spielberg, this young man is George. Lucas, a new Hollywood director, directed "American Painting" the year before last with a box office of over 100 million, and also participated in the production of our film. David introduced.

I heard David say that Xu Guanwu is the investor of this movie, Steve and George. Lucas looked at it all in amazement.

Xu Guanwu was also extremely surprised, he didn't expect that he would meet Lucas, the father of Star Wars, so coincidentally.

God bless me for a fortune!
