"Scarlett? What are you doing here! Chen Bo was surprised, standing in front of him was a new Hollywood star he hadn't seen for a long time, but his brown hair was dyed blonde.

"Why can't I come, isn't this the Oriental director auditioning for the heroine?" Scarlett smiled at the corners of her mouth, more mature than she was two years ago. "Do you remember owing me a script?"

"Seems like that, right?" Chen Bo patted his head, then spread his hands and said helplessly, "You have to know that different languages and scripts are very different, and the standard format of the script is very different, and I just figured it out." ”

"Okay, I'll take the script." Scarlett was unceremonious, and directly moved a stool and sat at the desk.

"Won't you see what the story is about? If it sucks, wouldn't it be the best actress you nominated for the Golden Globe? ”

"No need, no company will look for me right now anyway." Scarlett said a little depressed.

"Why do that?" Chen Bo was a little surprised, although he is young, he has not been short in the act, and it is still a very good choice for a big production to try a literary film to gain word-of-mouth, no matter how bad it is, he can make a vase, right?

"You really don't know?" Scarlett threw a puzzled look, and then complained, "It's not "Escape from the Gram. "Long Island" is noisy, and I have become synonymous with box office poison. ”

"Then I really have to thank you, without this straw, there would be no legendary entertainment now." Chen Bo smiled and said, "I only have a budget of $8 million for this play. can give you a maximum of $600,000 in salary, and the male protagonist is Joseph Gordon Levitt. After the production is completed, it will be participated in the Sundance Independent Film Festival, and if the response is good, it will be released by the summit, otherwise it will not be circulated in the market. ”

"Is there insurance?"

"Nonsense, otherwise the Actors' Guild won't kill me."

"Isn't that over, give me the script." Scarlett copied the not-so-thick "500 Days with Shamo" from the table very directly, and walked away, without considering his opinion at all.

Chen Bo had no choice but to pinch his nose and add Scarlett Johansson's name to the cast.

The male and female protagonists are complete, and it is enough to pick a few supporting roles, the plot of this movie is not complicated, and it can even be said to be very simple. It is a process of encounter, ambiguity, and separation between urban men and women, and some small passages between the girl who suffers from love and the boy who is innocent.

If it's a flat and straightforward narrative, it's a bad movie, but if the 500 days from the time the man and woman met to the time they were separated were spliced together in a disorderly manner with montage editing and flashbacks, and then used narration and back music to put together, it could be a masterpiece again.

In order for his Virgo to succeed faster, Chen Bo needs a helper who can help him control the crew. Who? The uninhibited scribe Mr. Gao Komatsu? Don't look ugly, at least he is also from a professional class, full of economy.

Although the movie he made won a small award, and the box office was not high, he lost some money, but at least it was a successful work. He himself is quite familiar with Hollywood, so a phone call called him over as an assistant director.

The rest of the crew has a ready-made team, and after the whole thing is saved, there is a meeting, and it is busy drawing storyboards.

"Boss, Time Magazine has an interview with you."

"Let him fuck off!"

"Boss, someone from the Los Angeles consulate is asking to see you."

"Not available!"

"Boss, Hua. The Embassy of Shengton invites you to participate in the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the United Nations. ”

"Busy, not idle."

……

While he was preparing for the film, there were constant appointments with domestic personnel stationed in the United States. But what about him?

What about kite flying? When you use it, you can pull it, and if you don't need it, you can throw it aside, and the clay figure still has three points of soil.

"Boss, an appointment with the White House Adviser and Special Envoy? You see. ”

"From the White House? It can't be Scott's second goods, right?! Chen Bo didn't refuse again this time, but asked.

"Well, it's him!"

"Then see me, not only to meet, but also to meet generously, and make an appointment with me in the office of Legend Entertainment!"

During the filming of the movie, Chen Bo took the time to go back to the company. With such a small budget, I can't go anywhere else, so I can only choose to shoot locally, and the actual shooting plan is only one month, all to save costs. Fortunately, the two leading actors are more powerful and did not delay too much time.

"Mr. Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you are still so chic." As soon as he walked into the office, Scott's little white face jumped up from the couch, like the Shar Pei dog at home.

"Shy, I'm having a headache for the Texas oil fields." Chen Bo didn't have a good airway, and Ma Dan blocked my mouth when he took a piece of the degraded land that had been mined, that is, he didn't want to make a big deal with you, so he suffered this dumb loss.

"Ahem......" Although Scott had expected that he would definitely ask this question, he didn't expect it to be so direct, and he could only be cheeky and say, "Have you ever heard of the shale gas revolution?" ”

Chen Bo leaned back in the wide and comfortable boss's chair, his feet on the desk, and he glanced at him and said, "I've heard of fighting local tyrants and making revolutions, but what about me?" ”

"It can't be said that with the advancement of extraction technology, a lot of natural gas that exists in the natural cracks and pores in a free state will reshow its commercial value with the advancement of technology, which is definitely a windfall!" Scott seemed to be a door-to-door salesman, and he chattered "Where's the oil field that was given to you?" The Permian Basin! There's shale everywhere! ”

"Since it's so good, how about you give me $50 million and I'll sell it to you? This price is not even a hair compared to the abundant natural gas resources, you are making a lot of money! ”

"It's funny, how can I have so much money, and I don't have the strength to develop." Scott is really shameless to the extreme, and it's no wonder that he can become a staff member of Little Bu Shi. Although he is young, his cheek can block bullets!

"Isn't that the same as farting?" Chen Bo pursed his lips, and then said, "I'm busy now, if it's okay, please go back, I don't want Hollywood people to know that you, a Republican, have been in my office for too long, and people are terrible!" ”

What is Hollywood? The stronghold of the Democratic Party is much more serious than the tendencies of Silicon Valley. Not only will you be despised if you mix with the Republican Party, but the door to the Oscars will basically be closed for you, which is one of the unspoken rules of Hollywood.

"I'm here to give you a big gift, the property rights of tens of thousands of square kilometers of land in the Permian Basin, this time you can really recover natural gas!" Scott's expression at the moment has evolved from shamelessness to flattery and flattery, which is really disgusting.

"Can you change your tricks, and you don't think it's enough to trick me?" Chen Bo said angrily, I don't take you to play like this for pastime, right?

"It's absolutely true this time, it's just that the production is not too high." Scott handed over a piece of paper with specific addresses and area directions, "but well-equipped and staffed." If you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate, and with your relationship with the Rockefeller family, it shouldn't be difficult! ”

"You'd better tell the truth, or I'll throw you off the roof." Chen Bo swore viciously, then grabbed his mobile phone to edit a text message and sent it to Nicholas, although Texas is not the place where their family started, but the states with oil fields have the power of ExxonMobil, and it is not difficult to verify this information.

"Rest assured, rest assured! If there is half a lie, I will deal with it! Scott patted his chest and reassured.

"The weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he didn't have a good heart!" Chen Bo said disdainfully, "What do you want to do, just say it." Don't fix these fancy intestines! ”

"Of course, this is mainly for the previous faux pas, to ease the tense atmosphere." Scott hit the snake with the stick, and then said, "Besides, I heard that you bought an archipelago, and I don't know how to develop it?" The White House is very supportive of this. ”

"What does the White House support? Is it money or things! Chen Bo squinted his eyes and said, what he said was right, Xiao Bu Shi is not a head watt, it is similar to a wild cat smelling fishy.

"You see that the island is so well located, it is better to build a large harbor. If you do it yourself, you have to tender and spend money, which is costly, laborious and time-consuming. We are also a philanthropic government, not only can give you low-interest loans, but also help you build. The conditions are also simple, as long as you have the right to operate for a certain number of years. Scott finally bared his fangs and told his true purpose.

"So rich?" Chen Bo replied with a pretended to be excited.

"Of course, you're an old friend of Mr. George."

"Other people's friends are two ribs and knives, and this president is two knives in his friends, it's not simple!" Chen Bo teased.

"Ahem, misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! Scott's face simply brought the shameless spirit of politicians to the extreme, but Chen Bo didn't intend to let him go so easily.

"Hey, I bought the island because of the unparalleled scenery and unique geographical environment. Is it okay to apply for a natural heritage site in such a beautiful place? The only pity is that all the natural heritage cannot be modernized, which is very difficult for me! Chen Bo sighed and said worriedly.

"That's fine, the White House can come forward to solve it." Scott immediately assured.

"The island is a virgin land, and it can't just have a port. There is no basic guarantee such as water and electricity, and even if the merchant ships come in the past, they can't replenish fresh water, right? ”

"This ...... This is easy to discuss. Scott didn't dare to accept it.

On such a large island, electrical engineering, and freshwater engineering are all thankless projects. Xiao Bu Shi took his own shale gas field to win over a businessman? Is he really so selfless? The national interest is only incidental, and it is not to value the advantage of the port to facilitate the family's business in the Middle East.

The Bushi family started with Texas, but has an inexplicable relationship with the bin Laden family, which is second only to the royal family in Saudi Arabia, after the 911 incident. There was a national air embargo, but only more than 20 members of the bin Laden family in the United States left the country by plane, except that the terrorist leader Osama was not among them.

At this moment, he received a short message on his mobile phone, Chen Bo glanced at it and said, "The shale gas company does exist, did you bring the documents?" I can sign up to receive it right away! ”

"Bring, of course!" Scott received the transaction signal and immediately took out the prepared documents and handed them over.

Chen Bo signed his name, then handed over one of them, and immediately issued an eviction order: "Regarding the construction of the islands, I will carefully consider the White House's plan, I still have to be busy!" I won't send you! ”
