Allan? Peggy frowned, "Guangguo Pictures doesn't make commercial films? It simply doesn't make sense. ”

People who mix in Hollywood basically go for the word "profit", and few people who can be called performance artists will go to that kind of place to develop, and it is difficult for those who perform for art to get ahead in Hollywood. Although now Alan? Peggy is known as the little princess of independent films, but in fact, she also wants to be recognized in mainstream movies, because mainstream movies have a higher audience and awareness. To put it bluntly, if the film is not made for others to see, then what else is it for?

Allan? Peggy now suspects that Li Jingming is teasing her, Guangguo Pictures is Li Jingming's private industry, so in the end he will make too much money, with this capital and the brilliant achievements of "Juno" as the foundation, no matter how you can make a little noise to attract sponsors and partners, there is no need to make independent films again.

Li Jingming only invested 15 million US dollars in this "Juno", assuming that the final box office of this movie is 200 million US dollars, then after deducting the money allocated to the theater and the publicity expenses, the rest will go into Li Jingming's personal pocket, this money is definitely more than 150 million US dollars, you must know that Li Jingming opened it to Allen? Peggy's salary is only a million dollars, which is still a conscience price. Allan? Peggy can't figure out why Li Jingming wants to give up the business model, independent films are a last resort, in fact, it is very risky, it seems that Li Jingming made a lot of money this time, but in fact, independent films are inferior products that have not entered the eyes of large companies, the scripts are all unsuccessful, and the shooting quality is definitely not as good as that of large companies. The script of "Juno" was voted for one company after another, and it was rejected dozens of times before it was transferred to Li Jingming's hands, and he couldn't rely on luck to expect to meet good works every time.

"Well, it's the pursuit of difference." Li Jingming can't talk to Allen? Peggy explained that he couldn't say that he was just playing pure art, so he wanted to explain it in a different way, "What do you think a movie is?" ”

"What is a movie?" Allan? Peggy's brow furrowed even more, of course she knew what a movie was. Film is a kind of film that uses photography to record images of external things on film according to the principle of visual retention. The technique of projecting a moving image on the screen to express a certain content. Although knowing the definition of a movie, Alan? Peggy understands that this is certainly not what Li Jingming really wants to ask.

"Cinema is first and foremost an art, isn't it?" Li Jingming smiled and spread his hands.

"I agree, but ...... "Allen?" Peggy couldn't refute Li Jingming's words, and the movie was nicknamed "The Seventh Art".

"Some people think it's a medium, and communication is its attribute, but I don't think so." Li Jingming shook his finger and gave it to Allen? Peggy had a moment to think, "It's like the difference between an oil painting and a comic, someone will put the comic in a bookcase but no one will frame it and hang it on the wall, and I'm the owner of Guangguo Pictures. I want every movie produced by Guangguo to be a work of art that can be hung on the wall. ”

"Damn, if you don't have a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, you will never say such bullshit." Allan? Peggy grimaced at Li Jingming, she was now Juno. Allan? Peggy doesn't make movies just for money, but for the sake of her actors and in order to make her more audiences recognize her, she has to look for opportunities to stand out in mainstream films.

"Honey, a few hundred million dollars is nothing to me." Li Jingming shook his head narcissistically, after a certain amount of money, it was just a bargaining chip and no longer had its original meaning, and these things that should be put in circulation in the market were just a symbol of his game with others for Li Jingming.

"You say you're rich, so how much can you pay for a movie?" Allan? Peggy tore at the pillow on the couch a little unpleasantly, not that she hated the rich. It's that Li Jingming's appearance is too bad.

Li Jingming took a sip of coffee on the table, "It's not a matter of money, there are many themes that Guangguo won't start shooting, such as that kind of plasma horror film such as excessive comedy and so on." There are also things with too many commercial elements, and Guangguo will not consider them. ”

Li Jingming's original intention of engaging in Guangguo Pictures was to go for awards, and you can know by looking at the past awards of the Academy Awards that pure commercial films are not flattering in the selection of major awards. If it is for money, Li Jingming can earn back several times and dozens of times in the shopping mall with the kung fu of making movies. However, no matter how much money there is, there is no way to buy things directly, Li Jingming is actually still using money to buy, but it is just a bit roundabout.

Allan? Peggy stood up, "You're driving me away." That's why you want me to join CAA? ”

"Of course not, it's just responsible for your future." Li Jingming is telling the truth, Allen? Peggy is also his friend no matter what he says, although he never refuses to make friends with friends, he never stingy with what he should take care of, and never hides what he should explain, "You already have the answer, don't you?" ”

"Then why are you asking me if I want to come to the country of light?" Allan? Peggy came over because of Li Jingming's words on the phone, but she still asked her to join CAA after saying it for a long time, and she is now running in vain and resentful, mainly because she is a little emotionally biased towards Li Jingming.

In fact, during the filming of "Juno", Alan? Peggy has been paying attention to Li Jingming's words and deeds, this producer has no frame at all and is very considerate to the staff, if she is working under Li Jingming, she will feel much more relaxed and autonomous, especially now that she knows that Li Jingming is the big boss, this feeling is even stronger. Although even if she joins, she will join the agency of Guangguo Entertainment, but it will be difficult for her to really join Guangguo Entertainment and then find someone else to make a movie, because CAA does not have a film company to compete with other film companies, which is essentially different from Guangguo, compared with Allen? Peggy still feels that CAA is a better fit for her.

"Can I say I called you over to see you because I missed you, haha." Li Jingming is always very energetic when he jokes, and now he has expelled the previous fatigue at once, "Let's stay and have a meal, my skills are great." ”

"You're a liar." Allan? Peggy rushed over to help her friend, but she threw her eyes at the blind man. Allan? Peggy is a person who knows gratitude, it was Li Jingming's "Juno" that gave her the current situation, and it was also Li Jingming who built her not to sign a contract too early, so that she waited until her value rose, and when she answered the phone, she thought that Li Jingming needed her here, so she rushed over in such a hurry, but she was righteous once, but Li Jingming was more righteous than her, and directly pushed her to CAA for her development.

"The drama still has to be done, even if it is decided that you want to enter the CAA, we can fight for some more benefits." Li Jingming is used to playing tricks, and he is always ready to rub some benefits on others, and since CAA wants to make a move this time, he will help Allen again? Peggy said, "Tomorrow I will release the news that Guangguo wants to sign you to stimulate CAA, and then if you look for you over there, you will say that it is a little difficult because of the relationship, and I will quote a similar price for CAA to give you more, even if they want to back down, they can come to a broker to disagree and persuade you, so that your agent can get a little more consumption." How's that going, are you very moved and want to invite me to dinner? ”

"I wasn't wrong at all, you're a big liar." Allan? Peggy rolled her eyes, it was only a few minutes before she figured out how to make money, no wonder she was so rich.

"These are all reasonable means, how can they be called deception?" Li Jingming thinks Allen? Peggy is useless just as a ruffian, and she has to be thick-faced and black-hearted to live well.

Allan? Peggy stayed behind to finish the meal with Li Jingming, because she was also a little curious about Li Jingming's so-called "great craftsmanship", and she was even more curious about a Korean who didn't cook Korean food and made Celestial Empire food. The ingredients were all bought back by Li Shengmin, and they went out to buy them while they were talking, there are a lot of Chinese in Los Angeles, and there are also a lot of authentic and good goods in some Chinese stores, Li Jingming has been studying here for half a year and has taken a small notebook to write it down, and Li Shengmin can find it as soon as he looks for it.

"Seriously, Jamie, are you going to make your own movie next?" Allan? Peggy was surprised when she first heard about it, Li Jingming had only studied the movie for more than half a year and was ready to start filming, although rich people can't play like this, a movie is not only a matter of money, but it also takes a lot of energy. If it weren't for Li Jingming, who has always been very calm and doesn't look like Erzu Allen who does brainless things? Peggy wouldn't even ask, but Li Jingming's usual appearance was too perfect for her to think that this movie would be worth looking forward to, so she was a little curious.

"It's a better script than Juno, and I don't think I'm going to make it too bad, so you can really look forward to it." Li Jingming smiled and said confidently, he is so confident in his attitude to himself, and his Apollo-like appearance is also a charm, but Alan? Peggy can't appreciate it because of her orientation.

Allan? Peggy's eyes widened in disbelief, Li Jingming's evaluation was too high, """Juno" is rated as the strongest contender for the Oscars next year, will your new movie script be better than "Juno"?" ”

"What, don't you believe it?" Li Jingming fiddled with the ingredients in his hand and shrugged nonchalantly, "Then let's wait and see." ”

"Then have you chosen your heroine?" Allan? Peggy asks with concern that a good script is even more tempting for an actor than a high salary.

Before Li Jingming could answer, the mobile phone rang, and Li Jingming pointed at the phone with his chin, "Can you help me, Alan?" ”

Allan? Peggy walked over with her mobile phone, pressed the answer button, and put it next to Li Jingming's ear to act as a humanoid phone holder, because Li Jingming's hand was soaked in water, she served it for free.

"Brother, the casting is almost over, you can come to the company tomorrow to do the final round of screening in person." Ann Hanjin is spoken in English, so Alan? Peggy heard it all without landing a word. (To be continued......)
