Chapter 169: Martial arts stand-in, licking dog Sony

There is a line in the Spanish drama "Black Death" -

'Nothing new under the sun, pathetic confidence in the future, this is humanity. ’

What does Roland want to do?

These guys couldn't be clearer.

After all, everyone came from that state.

Rich and famous, if this does not breed desire, then are you still considered a person?

Even Woody Allen, who derogated the Oscars, has a bunch of scandals, and wants to be indifferent to fame and fortune in the true sense?

Cao Zhengchun still wants to be the emperor!

What's more, Roland's intentions coincide with their ideas of praising people!

If it weren't for the fact that the same trick had already been used on the daughter of the big golden retriever, then-

This simple and convenient method can really be used.

You must know that after being on a TV show, the big golden retriever directly asked his daughter to endorse the family's drinking water products with himself, although the sales increase was not significant, but that face was out.

It's just that if the same trick is used again, it will be more or less insincere, the point is that what they want to hold is a movie star, not a family face, and that star entrepreneur is different, the name and face are typed, and it has little impact on the movie itself, rather than trying to figure out this, it is better to make a hit movie.

Just like Amber Heard, bisexuality has finished firing love, love has finished firing domestic violence, but after a series of means have been exhausted, all the efforts are not as good as a queen of the sea.

The fan effect will always exist, but only if you do the first place in the head can you enjoy the real dividends.

In this way, after glancing at Roland, how could the old man not know that the primary goal was to protect him? The secondary goal is to praise one's own people? As long as Roland successfully gets rid of his status as a child star, then he can toss as much as he wants, no problem-

So, the old man spoke, "Well, Kate's "Square Defense" has been re-filmed. ”

"Let her go over and learn first."

The light words made Roland stick out his tongue, and the old man said so, so he didn't bother to continue to pursue.

Gluttony is instinctive, but his brain is not broken.

If he is really depressed about these little things, then he simply converts all his money into stocks, and then stays at home and sleeps well, and the guy who can't even distinguish the priority can only guard the 'ancestral property'.

After all, there is only one king fish.

And just when Roland accepted the facts indifferently, the old man suddenly called out to him again, "Roland? ”

"Huh?" Roland, who felt strange, raised his head.

"Is your uncle David's clothing company still short of new models?"

"Huh?"

"Francis might stuff a girl inside."

"I can call the shots with this!" Roland, who understood, immediately agreed.

The crisp and neat words made the other seven laugh again and again.

No way, who made Roland react like this, it's too cute?

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.

This is very true everywhere.

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg have long been on the Forbes America Rich list, but unlike those black stars who raise younger brothers, they never give money to their friends.

Money is not blowing in the wind, there will always be a day when it will be delivered, rather than this, it is better to support their projects more, I will support you, I will teach you to film, you can earn money to improve your life, and because of our teaching and support, our power can also grow, compared with sending money, this is a win-win situation.

They don't exclude poor relatives, they exclude the kind of poor relatives who want to get something for nothing.

As long as you're willing to work with us, we'll accept you, otherwiseβ€”

That can only be Say good bye.

Because of this, there is a large gap between the rich and the poor in the Jewish gang, but they help each other.

Because those who only seek their own interests have long been excluded.

What did everyone talk about at Lucas's 50th birthday party?

It doesn't matter at all.

The important thing is that the familiar guys get together again, and the unfamiliar guys take a picture.

In the future, when you mix in the circle, it will be hello, hello, hello, everyone.

After three rounds of drinking, when Lucas opened the gift, a painting that existed in the gadget was a surprise to everyone.

A bust of Lucas is in the center of the paper, on the left is a character from the Star Wars universe, and on the right, there are various characters from the world of Raiders of the Lost Ark, at first glance, it looks the same as the printed one, but the 'Rolan Allen' in the lower right corner, and 'April, 20th, 1994' prove that the painting was painted by Roland himself.

"Steven, didn't you say he was ugly when he painted?" After glancing at the gift for a few moments, Lucas suspected that he was dazzled.

"That's right! He's told me about it, too! "Coppola came mercilessly.

However, after facing the puzzled glances cast by the crowd around him, the old man rolled his eyes and unceremoniously revealed the old bottom: "He can also master the skill of copying portraits, you let him draw a storyboard, I can't understand the ugly!" ”

"The point is, do you know why other people's portraits are so good?"

"Olson's son James told me before that when Roland was fine, he would draw on his sister!"

Oops hey!

When the old men looked at Roland with obscure but not difficult eyes, Roland was eager to find a crack in the ground and get in......

I just wanted to give some interesting gifts, how could it cause such a huge reaction from the big guys?

Praise and praise are forgotten, what the hell is revealing the old bottom?

Portrait Kung Fu is practiced against Elizabeth?

I feel so ashamed to say this!

The 50th birthday party is only a day, after all, everyone has something to do, and it is impossible to bury it here for a week or two.

At the time of separation, Coppola inexplicably patted Roland on the shoulder, and then gave him a thumbs up.

That group of like-minded people, the smell is the same, just didn't cut off the head of the chicken, burned yellow paper, and worshiped the behavior, and saw that Roland is eyelids jumped - I'm really not hentai, okay! I'm really just practicing my skills! Practice your skills!

It's a pity that the bearded man who has made a small movie doesn't believe it at all!

…………

Although Roland returned home in a 'dangerous' way, he still had to live his life.

After everything is finalized, Roland can be the shopkeeper again.

Even if the old man has to take care of his own industry and doesn't have time to do it himself, he still has a name in the co-production column, and the producer of the entire series is still the truck driver and Catherine who can coordinate the personnel, as for Roland? He is also one of the three major producers, but the most important thing he does is actually contact Ang Lee.

That's right, when those old men learned that Roland needed to hire an outsider to direct the action scenes in the film-

The first reaction of these guys was that Roland had taken the wrong medicine.

Chinese Kung-fu Of course they know that everyone has seen Li Xiaolong's movie!

They also know that Bruce Lee's kung fu movies are all actions of his own design!

That's why Shange Winton, Duff Lange, Steve Sieger and the others got jobs from Hollywood in the first place, because they knew the stuff and they could design their own moves!

And those who don't understand......

Either like Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger, they have an innate foundation, or they honestly follow the director's comic strips to make stop-motion actions and post-edit.

As for asking someone to teach?

There's never been such a thing!

However, Lucas, who asked the master of swordsmanship to guide the shooting of the lightsaber series of "Star Wars", thought it was no problem, and with his approval, the other guys let Roland toss.

Anyway, the truck driver has a bad temper, and if the designed action is ugly, then this guy will naturally spray people away.

As a result, Roland, who returned to Los Angeles, immediately contacted Ang Lee, and the guy who had been waiting for his call also pulled people over within a week - a prize for a bunch of people, and no matter how you look at it, this deal is a big profit for them!

Waiting for the distrustful truck driver to be pulled to his house by Roland with a helpless face, watching the group of martial artists under the banner of the Yuan family class fight in the courtyard, the elegant movements made the old man raise his eyebrows.

"Can they make you do that?" The old man looked at Roland with an expression of 'you can continue to lie to me'.

"Half a year of targeted training can make his movements more agile, but it is impossible to copy them as they are."

After learning that he had the opportunity to break into Hollywood, Master Yuan made up his English, although he was still rusty, but with the help of Ang Lee, he was still able to answer the question, "Roland's character will cover his face during the fight, so when the time comes, we will find someone of similar stature to act as a stand-in, and when we don't cover our faces, we will design some good-looking simple actions according to your requirements, and when you fight, we will have someone to help you complete it." ”

Talking about the stand-in in front of the truck driver and Roland seemed a little strange, but after seeing the row of guys with Roland's body shape behind Master Yuan, the truck driver happily let them design first.

You don't need a stand-in to shoot action scenes, and the special code is that you have a brain.

Even Stallone, who is known for his tough guys, uses this thing.

An A+list is a walking money printing machine, investors can take money to spoil them, but they are absolutely not allowed to do any dangerous actions, if the leg is broken and the hand is broken, then the loss is not money.

As for Roland himself?

He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

In his previous life, when he was doing movie peeling, he knew that Xiao Lizi was also a stand-in in "Titanic".

Especially the scene where he and Winslet were frantically washed by the sudden sea water, using professional divers and post-P head processing, after all, if the two of them bumped and were disfigured, the truck driver would really be able to pull out a knife and cut his throat.

Admittedly, this idea of Chiguoguo is indeed not humane.

A+list is expensive, and the stand-in is not a person.

But just like Mr. Guo Zengfu Guo said, 'I don't eat or drink, I still have a large family to raise.' ’

The throat is his lifeblood, and it is what he eats, if he is dumb, the group of people in Deyun Club can only rely on Teacher Yu, who smokes, drinks and burns his head.

Half of the sky has fallen, can this work continue?

Therefore, the media said that it is good to listen to it in person, no one will think that they are cats, they really have nine lives!

…………

After deciding to let Yuan Jiaban design the action according to the needs of the truck driver, Sony's first preparation money has been hit to Catherine's newly created crew account, so that no matter how they plot, the rest of the giants also know that the series "Spider-Man" has been eaten by Sony.

A budget of 100 million, a 75 percent share, made them smack, while the remaining twenty-five percent, was intercepted by Spielberg, who, in his words, would inject capital into a new company.

Isn't the new company a dream factory?

The money must have been borrowed from Chase Bank!

However, since the company is still preparing, 25% of his will be put into operation within a month after start-up.

For such a negotiation arrangement, Sony, which has deep pockets, can't even have an opinion.

They only emphasized that if the funds did not arrive on time, they would get the right to follow-up.

But for Roland, this sentence is also a deaf ear.

As for the salary, this is even more non-negotiable, the 18% global box office share of the fixed price, if you don't give it, you have to give it, the truck driver does not get a fixed salary, and chooses 5% of the North American box office dividend, and the fixed salary of 30 million in the budget is distributed by Catherine to those guys who are sure to help, of course, this does not include Tom Hanks.

After learning that his total role was less than ten minutes, this guy directly said that Roland made a cameo in his movie, and he could also make a cameo in Roland's movie.

Of course, this is not to save money for Sony, but to make room for Anthony Hopkins and Robert De Niro, the two old men each take 12 million, Meryl Streep, who also has not many scenes but has to play three films, takes 3 million, and the remaining 3 million, of which 800,000 is given to Xiao Lizi, and at most 300,000 is left for the heroine who has not yet been found, and the rest are all odd expenses, making up for all kinds of small roles.

That's right, the income gap is so cruel.

is like the situation when Roland first played "Home Alone", which added up to less than 10,000 yuan.

Newcomers, you have to boil, and when you have a coffee seat, you can get more money.

And when you reach the A-list, you can shoot the producer's table and ask them for more money.

As for the remaining 70 million budget, is it enough to make a movie?

Oh my God, that's enough money to make a Jurassic Park!

…………

At the same time as the project was being prepared, Sony, who had made the partnership public, was finally promoted from an underground lover to Roland Xiaomi, and the first thing they did was to chisel an office for Roland in their own building.

Roland won't go to work at all?

It doesn't matter!

Anyway, the place is reserved for you, and when you want to come and go around, we all raise our hands to welcome.

Not only that, but they also arranged the "Men and Women on Diet" that Roland bought.

In the words of the new CEO, 'foreign language film nominations will definitely continue to work'.

Of course, Ang Lee, whom Roland 'values', also enjoys care for this.

"Sense and Sensibility," which lies in Columbia Pictures' script library, has become Sony's new project to win people's hearts.

Ang Lee didn't shoot this thing well?

They don't know.

But what they do know is that Roland loves Ang Lee's films, and that's enough!

Let Ang Lee shoot "Sense and Sensibility", it doesn't matter if you lose money or make money.

As long as Roland is happy and willing to cooperate with them for a long time, it will definitely not be a loss!

When Roland learned of Sony's dog-licking reaction, he really couldn't laugh or cry.

Since the acquisition, the cumulative loss has been nearly 2 billion, and Sony is afraid of a loss!

Now holding a cash cow, I want to call Dad!

Still, it's nice to be seen as a savior by Sony.

Of course, if Sony was willing to give it to Roland for nothing, so much the better!

…………

The idea of Roland, the ultimate member of Taobao.com, is naturally impossible to leak at will.

After finalizing the special training schedule with Master Yuan, preparing to spend six months systematically learning the routines starting in July, it became a matter of course to deal with other miscellaneous things in advance.

And the first thing that Roland put in front of him was to go to Blizzard to check out their production of "Orcs and Humans".

To be honest, because the time is too long, Roland in his previous life only bought Lenovo's big-ass computer in 98 years, and the only thing he could buy at that time was "Warcraft 2" by Ogilvy Electronics Agency, so he never played a generation at all.

But it doesn't matter, Roland can accept the quality of the mosaic, and after he is taught by the Blizzard Triumvirate, he figures out how to operate, and experiences the story written by this group of straight men, revolving around the two legendary characters of Sir Lothar and Doomhammer, and seeing with his own eyes characters such as Medivan, Gul'dan, and Sargeras, who can't even be framed with the naked eye......

Roland was so excited that he was about to cry!

Is it because the epic is about to be born?

No!

It's because he found out that this first generation of "Warcraft" has no hero settings!

Damn, don't give me the Juggernaut, I'm going to steal a fart peasant!

"Heroes?" In the face of Roland's inquiry, the three guys stared wide-eyed.

"That's right, don't you think that making plot characters like Medivan and Gul'dan into controllable units will instantly have their own highlights in the whole game?" Roland, who was killed by three guys in three sets in a row and was unwilling to play GG three times in a row, looked at them bitterly - if there was a hero, how could he lose so badly?

Looking at Roland, who was trying to instill a heroic highlight in himself, the three of them rubbed their hands together awkwardly almost at the same time.

"Uh...... The one you mentioned, we had an idea. ”

Mike Mohami turned around and pulled out a messy stack of papers from a drawer and showed it to Roland.

On the white paper, a sturdy orc with hideous faces and fangs bulging was wrapped in his hands, a broken Japanese katana pinned to his waist, and a large flag was inserted in the waistband of his trousers, on which was also painted a long blade.

Looking at it closely, Roland almost didn't scold, isn't this the Sword Master he wants?

"If you have this idea, why don't you do it?" Roland couldn't figure it out.

"Because the balance is not easy to master......" Seeing that Roland was so interested in this kind of unique unit, Mohami had to tell the truth, "If we want to make these hero units, then we have to consider the balance between each race, after all, we are a battle game, if we can't achieve relative balance, then the game experience will be very poor." ”

"And it's the first time we've made a game with an independent world view, so ......"

"We need to make a game with gameplay that meets the public's taste, and see what they think of the story mode we added, and if it's good, we can continue to expand and add heroes, if not......"

"That's a failure to test the waters."

Roland served!

Is this the legendary power generation for love?

According to normal people's thinking, the money belongs to the boss, and if the project development funds are not enough, ask the boss to continue.

I just have to make what I want to do.

And what about these people?

When you make a game, you think about player feedback?

Instead of trying to toss my money, you're thinking about how you can help me make money?

Sure enough, the guy who has not been corrupted by capital is the real five good employees!

The reason why Mike Mohami resigned in the future is probably because of the group's non-stop profit requirements, right?

Since all three guys said so, then Roland has nothing to say.

The game is already done, you can't let them continue to change it, right?

As for the release of the game......

Naturally, I asked Spielberg's very familiar EA to do it!

Taking EA's physical channel to release games is much more convenient than running it yourself!

Fight the fame of the game first, and start tinkering with the channel, which is more trouble-free and more cost-effective!

After determining the release time of "Humans and Orcs", Roland also told them the news that Sony asked for "Spider-Man" exclusivity, and after learning about it, the three of them immediately showed a lewd smile at Roland.

"Roland."

"Huh?"

"Sony will have professionals bring engineering machines to assist us in development?"

"That's right!"

"That's good! Ask them if you can bring an acquaintance with you? ”

"Acquaintances? Who? ”

"Capcom's Yoshiki Okamoto and Kitaka Funamizu!"

"Ahem, cough, ahem......" Roland almost wanted to pick up the documents on the table and smash the heads of these three guys!

What are these guys thinking?

Yoshiki Okamoto and Noritaka Funamizu are the soul of Street Fighter! In terms of fighting game sales, the only one that can compete with it is Mortal Kombat! You guys want to borrow two guys who are like Dinghaishen Needle from Capcom?

Aren't you embarrassed by Sony?

Oh wait!

It's not embarrassing for me!

Roland, who wanted to calm them down, rolled his eyes and felt that this thing was promising!

Sony wants to make PS game consoles, and wants to use the influence of super IP to help machine sales, so isn't it reasonable for them to help borrow people to make games?

As for whether they are willing to borrow it?

Roland's office is all messed up, can they not want to?

He, Roland, was just a phone call away, and he could throw all the pressure on Sony.

With such a click of the lips, it is possible to win both sides, such a good thing, why not do it?
