Since talking to Lawrence? After the Rockefeller meeting, Alex was suddenly idle.

Of course, that's not what he says about others, but pretends that he's been busy. This is especially true for Hughes, who as soon as he receives a call from Hughes, he talks a lot about the company and pretends that I am busy.

Hughes seemed to know that Alex was so passive and slacking off, and secretly said a few words, but seeing that it had no effect, he stopped mentioning the matter.

Without Alex's involvement, SCC's R&D work no longer makes some leapfrog planning, but starts from the most basic things.

The current research work is led by von Bryan, and he actually hopes that Alex will join in, and when they work together, Alex's various "whimsical ideas" help him a lot, and many seemingly impossible things can be realized.

Seeing that his rocket skills were catching up with the Soviet Union step by step, and he was about to overtake, Alex suddenly said that he had something to do, and the rest would not participate.

How can this be!

Von Bryan called whenever he was free and asked Alex to quickly devote his energy to scientific research and not be distracted by other things.

In the face of von Bryan's request, Alex naturally couldn't tell the truth, but played with the other party: "I don't have to worry about you doing things!" I've been following your research for a long time, and the SCC is doing very well. When I have the chance, I will go back to the institute, and then I will have to do a big job. ”

In fact, he did not pay attention to the R&D work of SCC at all, as for other companies. It's all on the right track, and you just need to pay attention to it every year in June and December, and it's really useful to have the ability to check other people's memories.

At least Alex only needs to make contact to know if the other party is lying, what he has done, and so on.

Not long after he was free, Morris from DreamWorks came to the door, and this time he wanted to ask Alex to go shopping in Europe with him.

"Europe? What are you going to do over there? ”

"Didn't I tell you before, I'm going to see those solo producers, and I want to dig up a few people to DreamWorks."

Morris has always been a big fan of solo films. He himself started out by making one-man films. Although he became the boss of DreamWorks, he still did not abandon the idea of insisting on solo production. I set aside part of my time each year to shoot a film, which usually has something new or something new in it.

In other major film companies, this kind of film is not allowed to be made. Because they don't know if they can make money. It's like a record label. Large companies are very strict and regulated about the production process of films. It's like an assembly line. Films produced by themselves are different, without so many rules and regulations, the director's influence on the film is very great.

DreamWorks Pictures is no small now. In order to ensure box office revenue, Alex and Morris also had to adopt the same system of rules as the big companies. However, they have a soft spot for solo production, and they allocate a part of the resources to directors who have ideas and drive to play freely.

"It's a necessary investment! We have to stay alive and keep renewing ourselves! ”

Alex said this to Morris when he made this decision. Sure enough, many directors like to work with DreamWorks because they have the opportunity to produce a solo film. Normally, after making a commercial film, DreamWorks will consider giving the director a chance to make a solo film.

For DreamWorks, investments in these directors can fail as well as succeed. Even if it fails, DreamWorks is able to learn from it and constantly improve and introduce new techniques and new shooting techniques. This is also how DreamWorks can grow quickly and defend itself against attacks from other studios.

Of course, Morris himself would not object, and he carried out the rules set by Alex very well. Basically, 70% of DreamWorks' annual shooting funds are used to shoot commercial films, and 30% are used to give directors free rein and produce many independent films.

In the past few years, DreamWorks has become more and more prosperous, and there are more and more talents. Not only the directors want to come over, but even the movie stars are getting closer, trying to build a good relationship in order to get the opportunity to star.

Alex hasn't paid much attention to DreamWorks in recent years, and basically left it to Morris. This old guy is also very powerful, and with his connections, he quickly attracted many talented directors and shot many blockbuster movies for DreamWorks.

"Didn't you always go to Europe by yourself before, why did you suddenly want to take me along?"

"Oh, that's because you're busy all the time and don't have time. I looked for you several times, but I couldn't find you. This French film festival was very lively, and I originally wanted to go there by myself, but suddenly I remembered that I had told you that I wanted to go together, so I came to you. ”

Morris did say before that he wanted Alex to go to Europe with him, and Alex agreed at that time, but there were too many things later, so it was delayed. Alex has not been there since, except for going to Europe to shoot "The Sound of Music".

"That's good, that's good! Are we going straight to France? ”

"Unless you like to take a steamer, we'll fly straight to Paris, France."

Alex is the kind of lazy man who pursues efficiency, and of course he doesn't have those petty bourgeois romances, and he doesn't sit on a plane, but takes a ship to Europe. The two of them quickly arranged their own affairs, and then took their entourage and set off.

In order to ensure safety, Alex will bring enough bodyguards with him every time he travels. Due to the large number of people, Alex simply chartered a passenger plane to go over. Such a thing is very simple, a phone call can be done in the past, and it is simply not worth mentioning for him.

The Carpenter family is in control of the airlines around the world, and when they need a plane, all they need to do is arrange it for their men. At the beginning, in order to chase female stars, Hughes even chartered tickets for a route, so that no one else could take a plane. Alex just used an airplane, and it didn't have any effect on ordinary people at all.

Since arriving in Paris, Alex has been following Morris to various parties and meeting many talented filmmakers. At the same time, I also met many young and beautiful French female stars, and when they learned that Alex was the owner of DreamWorks, their eyes lit up and they couldn't wait to swallow him in one bite.

"Don't tell anyone who I am next time!" Alex, who was overwhelmed, privately found an opportunity to tell Morris that he had just gotten rid of a few actresses who were trying to soar, and almost even his pants were ripped off by the other party.

"Hehe, I thought you enjoyed it!"

"Your sister! One or two may be acceptable, but when a large group pounces on them, even the iron man can't stand it. ”

"Huh? Have you been conquered? That's really gratifying! Morris still joked that he had brought Alex out this time for a purpose, and now that it was almost done, of course he was happy in his heart.

"No kidding, I don't look at this kind of goods yet!"

Alex pursed his lips with a very disapproving expression. It's not that he's picky, these French beauties introduced by Morris are all very beautiful, and they can become popular female stars as long as they have the opportunity. It's a pity that the occasion is not right, and there are too many people, and he is not thick-skinned enough, so he always feels very embarrassed.

Morris looked at him in surprise, then smiled and said, "Do you know, we used to bet that you would have a girlfriend before you were 15 years old." There's only one person who doesn't believe it, and Chuck says you definitely don't think about this until you're 20. ”

"And then?"

"And then a lot of people lost, even I lost $100!"

"Cut! You boring people talk about girlfriends at the age of 15, that's too early. ”

Morris suddenly laughed and said, "Too early? Don't you know that Richard has already talked about a few girlfriends! ”

It was the first time Alex had heard of this, and he looked at Morris in surprise, unable to believe his ears. Now that Richard is only 15 years old, this guy has already talked to more than one girl, which is really tough.

"It's true, maybe your parents know about it, maybe you don't know." Morris

"How is that possible?"

"Richard has a lot of fans, especially the little ones, it's crazy. You may not know it, but even the stars have his fans. He wants a girlfriend, it's easy! ”

"Unbelievable! Richard was still so young ......"

In fact, Alex already believed in his heart, after all, he has been busy with computers and rockets and satellites in the past few years, and rarely goes to record companies. When they meet, it's basically at home eating. Of course, Richard would not bring this kind of thing to the dinner table, and the Carpenter were also very open-minded and would not interfere in the love life of their children.

"Maybe you should be looking for a girl! Alex," said Morris to him very seriously, "God created women because men are so lonely!" Have you never been lonely? ”

"Ha Lu Ha! This topic feels a bit hard to answer! ”

Alex looked at him and didn't continue to talk to Morris, but he was already muttering in his heart whether he really found a girlfriend as Morris said.

In the past, Alex might not have been affected by this effect, but since he was full of energy, this thought has been like a weed. Alex pretended to get a drink and took the opportunity to escape from Maurice, which made him feel much more relaxed. (To be continued......)
