Chapter 252: Movie Script
Tang Dao is also busy in Las Vegas.
Perhaps, as he himself said, he was born with a hard life and couldn't stop at all, especially at the critical moment when Mercedes-Benz shares changed hands, he simply put the money into the account of the old man David, and gave Felix an order to let him collect the shares in the hands of the small shares.
These are all in the way of sneaking up.
He must not let others find out, but he knows that when the world economy recovers, Mercedes-Benz will usher in a major development opportunity.
And at this time, Doug. Ms. Mary also flew from Boston to Las Vegas, and her intention was that the script had been finalized and needed to be read by Tang Dao, who was an investor.
At Bellagio he met Mary and a young man in a suit, but slightly nervous.
"It's a pleasure to see you again, Lady Mary." Tang Dao stretched out his hand, with a kind face, looking at the young man beside him, although curious, but also a greeting, the other party was obviously very restrained, hurriedly stood up, holding both hands, this polite young man is always liked.
"This is the screenwriter of the script, Andrew. Nicole, who studied at the University of Southern California, is one of the most aura of our good Paramounts. ”
Mary used the word aura to compliment the other party, and there was satisfaction in her eyes.
Anyone who has read this script will be deeply attracted to him.
"Oh? So great? Tang Dao raised his eyebrows, and became interested, he flipped through it twice, and took a look at the introduction: Originally, the family business of American immigrant Yuri was to open a restaurant.
But by chance, he stepped into the arms business and began a "career" selling weapons.
Yuri's wit and boldness not only allowed him to capture the heart of the beautiful Eva, but also made him more and more courageous in the underground arms business. But things didn't go his way: a business rival and an international policeman who was always watching him; The younger brother became addicted to drugs and died in a business transaction.
And, despite his efforts to maintain his image of justice in the family, he cannot hide the truth. Yuri begins to reflect on the righteousness of his business and torture his conscience, but it is too late, and he has already betrayed his family
This plot is so familiar!
When Tang Dao saw the back, he always felt that this was not the king of war?! Suddenly raised his head, and looked at the young man, as if the screenwriter and director was named Andrew. Nicole!
It's just that when this movie was broadcast in 2004, the director was already a middle-aged uncle with a beard on his face, and he hesitated about the vicissitudes of life, where is it like a little fresh meat now, could it be that he had written this script a long time ago?
"Mr. Nicholas..."
Doug. Mary kept staring at Tang Dao, and noticed that the other party's eyes had been looking at Andrew. Nichol flickered, and asked softly.
"Oh, it's okay, I just think this script is fantastic, it's good, have you picked the actors? It's best to be all powerful. Tang Dao put the script on the table, opened his hand, leaned back, crossed Erlang's legs, and held a cigar in his hand, this big guy's posture is still very good.
Hearing this, Mary and Andrew glanced at each other and felt a peace of mind.
As long as the investor is satisfied, everything is fine...
"In terms of actors, we have contacted the Actors Guild, and when the time comes, they will recommend a few protagonists and supporting roles with a very good temperament."
Hollywood's actors' union is still very powerful, there are about 10,000 actors in the United States, these people are divided into classes, those with high incomes can buy luxury homes in Beverly Hills, and those with low incomes can't even afford to eat.
"You Paramount can go to Somalia, and I'll have someone over there to cooperate with you, and when the time comes, all you need to do is make this movie." Tang Dao is still very sure of what he said.
He had been with Doug before. Mary said that all props must be real.
In this way, the photographed things have a real taste.
"Your script is very good, I think you can learn to shoot movies, you will be a great director."
When leaving, Tang Dao was still patting Andrew. Nichol's shoulder said, and even gave him a business card of his own, telling him to call him if he needed anything, and Tang Dao still maintained a certain favor for the director who later officially made the first real arms blockbuster.
After the two sides talked for about an hour, Tang Dao sent them away. Mary seemed to think of something and turned around, standing on this step, which was already shorter than Tang Dao, but now it was even lower, and she raised her head, "Mr. Nicholas, I want to ask you, are you interested in Paramount's shares?" ”
When I was in Boston before, this girl asked about this topic.
But Tang Dao knows that the cold winter of movies is quietly coming, especially the recovery of Paramount and others will not wait until the 21st century, which is still nearly twenty years away, in terms of income, this is indeed a great investment, but it is definitely not now.
But for the sake of a little hope for Mary, Tang Dao still acted like he was thinking.
"I think Paramount is a great company, and I'll let my company's valuation team do an evaluation, and I think he's going to have his value, and I'm happy to invest, but it takes time, doesn't it?"
This is very serious, but who can't hear the perfunctory in it?
Doug. Mary bowed her head in disappointment and said goodbye with a reluctant smile.
Paramount's debt shock is starting to show!
If you can't get the money into the bank, then the century-old store will be closed.
But the capital market has never valued seniority, and perhaps this is the fairest era.
Tang Dao waved his hand behind him, smiling and watching the other party leave, but he was waiting for an opportunity in his heart, a good opportunity to fall into the ground.
…
Kyiv!
The police found the bodies of seven Asians in a gutter, all of them were pulled out and had many wounds, but the fatal wound was a gunshot wound to the left chest, according to the police, related to a local gangster, and these Asians were customers from the Philippines who came to Kyiv to "do business".
The possibility of vendetta is not ruled out.
This is the sixth homicide in three days, and it has caused about 20 deaths, and the internal environment is extremely unstable, which has directly led to the issuance of travel restrictions in many countries.
And in such a time.
On December 25, the streets were unusually quiet.
But all the agencies on duty are very nervous and waiting.
Because today...
In the Kremlin there is something important to announce.
Everyone was told not to go out as much as possible.
Chernkovso sat with a frown, accompanied by John and the others, they turned on the TV, did not say a word, just looked at the familiar man on the TV, his name once shocked the world, but now he seemed to look very old.
John looked at Chirkovso cautiously.
The latter crossed Erlang's legs and shook rhythmically, but the former still saw the unpeace in his heart, turned his head to look at the TV, and the man above patted the microphone, only a few words.
"To hold the last meeting in accordance with the House of Republics of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR for the fulfillment of the legal formalities for the termination of the existence of the USSR ......"
"The collapse of the USSR!"
