"Thank you, thank you, help me get back what the Gambino family should have!"

Sophie? Marceau was dressed in Italian costume, and seven or eight followers in black suits behind him stood on the pier to bid farewell to Cheng Long, Lin Qingxia and Zhou Billy.

"See you again!" Lin Qingxia waved her hand, turned around and stepped on the gangplank with Zhou Billy and got on the boat.

Cheng Long is with Sophie? Marceau came to a hug, and before he could speak, the old policeman Charles? Bronson came running from afar: "Hey, Jack! ”

Old Charles's voice came, and Cheng Long was so frightened that he fled to the boat like a frightened rabbit, and shouted anxiously: "Hurry up and start the boat, that old guy is here again!" ”

Looking at the ship that was speeding away from the dock, Charles said to Sophie? Marceau shrugged helplessly: "Actually, I retired yesterday, and that case is not in my charge now." ”

"Click!"

Kang Jianfei stood up with a smile and said, "I announce that "Deadly Express" is finished! ”

Cai Yongchang, who guarded the last scene of "Papapa......", took the lead in leading everyone to applaud, he worked very hard as a producer this time, especially when he met Kang Jianfei, a director who likes to spend money indiscriminately.

The crew cleaned up the venue, Charles? Bronson walked over and shook Kang Jianfei's hand and said, "Mr. Kang, this filming experience is very pleasant, and I hope to continue to cooperate in the future." ”

"I'm looking forward to the next collaboration as well." Kang Jianfei hugged the old gentleman, and walked over to Sophie? Marceau and the others shake hands.

Sophie? Next to Marceau stood a Frenchwoman in her thirties, who was given to Sophie by Gaumont's company? Emma, Marceau's agent and temporary assistant, is in charge of Sophie? Marceau's trip to Italy for some business.

Kang Jian flew to Sophie? Marceau smiled, and then asked her agent, "Miss Emma, at the Hong Kong premiere next month, did Gaumont promise to let Sophie attend?" ”

Emma listened to the translation. A little apologetic, he said: "Sophie has already made arrangements for next month, so the company is a little embarrassed about this, if Mr. Kang really insists on letting Sophie participate, the honorarium needs to be discussed." ”

"How much?" Kang Jianfei asked.

Emma held out five fingers and said, "Fifty thousand dollars." ”

Kang Jianfei was so angry that he wanted to laugh when he heard this ridiculously high price, he reminded: "It seems that Sophie's salary is only 200,000 US dollars, just to come to Hong Kong for a catwalk, I need to pay you 50,000?" Ms. Emma, if your company doesn't agree, just say it. Not having to pay such a high price to refuse, it is disrespectful to both parties. ”

Emma hurriedly explained, "Is that so, Alain? Director Curnow is about to start filming a war film, and it has been decided that Sophie will play the first supporting actress in the film. If you go to Hong Kong for the premiere of your new film, you will be delayed for at least two to three days. ”

Kang Jianfei frowned and said, "It's only three days. The schedule of the female supporting actress should be easy to adjust. ”

Emma spread her hands: "But this will disrupt the director's shooting plan and cause certain economic losses." Isn't it? ”

Kang Jianfei can be heard it. Gaumont's company didn't take him seriously at all, and they weren't ready to put Sophie? Marceau promotes it to East Asia, otherwise adjusting the schedule for two or three days is just a trivial matter.

Sophie? In the three years since Marceau's debut, although she has become well-known in France and some other places, she has only filmed two "First Kisses", which is limited to the screen image of a pure girl.

The reason why Kang Jianfei was able to invite Sophie easily this time? Marceau. In addition to his fame for filming "Home Alone", but also because this play is an action comedy, Gaumont hopes to break through Sophie? Marceau's play.

But right now, Sophie? Marceau has a better development, and the Gaumont company has decided to let her play Alain? The first supporting actress in Curnow's new film. Then Kang Jianfei's side is no longer important.

Because of Alain? Curnow is one of France's leading directors, and his new war drama is sure to be a sensation in Europe. Marceau's priority is to make a new film, not to follow Kang Jianfei to Hong Kong for a premiere.

"Well, Sophie doesn't have to attend the premiere anymore." Kang Jianfei didn't want to put a hot face on someone's cold ass, he had already clearly felt the change in Gaomeng's company's attitude.

Cai Yongchang walked over and asked Kang Jianfei, "They refused?" ”

Kang Jianfei didn't get angry because he touched the nail, but said with a smile: "The ghost guy looks down on us, this kind of thing that offends people and doesn't please Lu, they can actually do it." ”

Cai Yongchang sighed and didn't say anything more. Golden Harvest has cooperated with some film companies in Europe and the United States, and Cai Yongchang is responsible for contacting some of them, and it is not once or twice that he has been discriminated against by his European and American counterparts.

The reason why today's Chinese filmmakers are not valued by Europe and the United States is that there have been no more sensational filmmakers since Bruce Lee, and secondly, whether it is the Hong Kong or Taiwan market, it is dispensable for Western producers.

If it is replaced by the mainland market in 30 years, I am afraid that now Gaomeng Company is rushing to cooperate with Kang Jianfei, because Sophie? After Marceau's promotion to China, it meant that the company could make a lot of money.

As for now, Hong Kong people are not keen on Hollywood blockbusters, and at most one or two Western films a year can sell high at the box office in Hong Kong. In Taiwan, although Western films are very popular, the exchange rate of the Taiwan dollar is too low, and it is only a few hundred thousand dollars when converted into US dollars - these hundreds of thousands also have to pay high entertainment taxes, and after distributing some to distributors and theater operators, there is not much left.

Just when the crew cleaned up the scene and Kang Jianfei was about to lead the team away, Sophie? Marceau, however, got into a fight with her agent, Emma.

After a heated argument, Sophie? Marceau walked over and said to Kang Jianfei: "Kang, I think I will go to Hong Kong to attend the premiere next month, and I don't want a penny of remuneration, you just need to help arrange accommodation, food and round-trip air tickets." ”

"But," Kang Jianfei pointed to Emma, whose face turned dark, "I'm afraid your company won't agree." ”

Sophie? Marceau said indifferently: "It's a big deal to terminate the contract with them!" ”

Kang Jianfei remembered what this girl had done in the past two years - Gao Meng's company thought that erotic films would destroy Sophie? Marceau's image of a jade girl, so she resolutely disagreed with her starring in "Wild Love", and Sophie turned out to be sophie? In a fit of rage, Marceau borrowed money from everywhere to raise 1 million francs in liquidated damages, and directly said goodbye to the Gaumont company.

In fact, in the Hong Kong film industry, there is also a female star with the temper of Sophie? Marceau is similar. That is Lan Jieying, who later became beautiful in Wutai Mountain.

Lan Jieying also went her own way, and she had a lot of trouble with wireless stations and several film companies. You must know that Lu Dao was very popular with the wireless station at the beginning, and the treatment was so good that countless TVB actresses were jealous. But because there were too many constraints, Lan Jieying fell out with the producer and director of the TV station many times, and the result was naturally refrigerated by the TV station, and she was directly asked to get out of the contract as soon as the contract was full.

It's a pity that Lan Jieying has no backer behind her, and she doesn't have amazing talent, and after leaving the TV station, she has no one to cover, and she became crazy because of all kinds of unhappiness.

"Forget it, it's just a little thing. You don't have to disobey the company's orders. Kang Jianfei persuaded bitterly, with a good face of noble conduct. In fact, this guy began to have a black belly again, just because Emma's tone and Gao Meng's attitude just now made Kang Jianfei very unhappy, so he provoked Sophie? Marceau's relationship with Gaumont.

As the saying goes, it's understandable to harm others and benefit oneself. The most hateful are those who harm others and do not benefit themselves.

Kang Jianfei is now doing things that harm others and are not beneficial to himself!

Take Kang Jianfei these days and Sophie? Marceau's contact, knowing that this girl is just in the stage of youth and rebellion. The more you persuade her, the more insistent she becomes.

Sophie? Marceau's reaction was indeed not what Kang Jianfei expected. She said: "No, Mr. Kang, it's not entirely because of going to Hong Kong for the premiere. In fact, I'm fed up, the company is always dictating to me, and the last time director Ferrer asked me to make an art film, it was a great script. But I was rejected by the company because it thought it was destroying my innocent image. God, they always restrain me like this......"

Agent Emma came over to interrupt Sophie? Marceau's words said, "Mr. Kang, I'm sorry, Sophie, she was too excited just now. Some of them are incoherent. In fact, we'd love to see your new film sell well, as it would boost Sophie's fame in Asia, but she really won't have time for next month. ”

Kang Jianfei smiled and nodded, "I understand, after all, I am also the owner of a film company." ”

"Thank you for your understanding." Emma shook hands with Kang Jianfei and said.

Sophie? Marceau said to Emma: "It's not just a business thing, Mr. Kang and Miss Lin just celebrated their birthdays yesterday, and we are already friends with each other. It's very easy to move the three-day schedule, why can't I go to Hong Kong to help Mr. Kang promote the new film? ”

Emma spread her hands and said, "I'm sorry, Sophie, this is the company's decision, and I can't change it." ”

Sophie? Marceau said angrily: "Anyway, I will go to Hong Kong when the time comes." ”

Kang Jianfei happily watched the two French women arguing, although he couldn't understand what they were arguing about, but it was enough to watch a good show.

After the scene is cleaned up, everyone in the crew goes back to the hotel to pick up their luggage first, Sophie? Marceau was still arguing with Emma in the car.

Lin Qingxia packed her luggage alone, and Kang Jianfei, a two-faced villain, took advantage of Emma's absence to pull Zeng Bolin as a translator. Marceau said, "Sophie, I don't think your company should be like this. If you want to be free, I can lend you money to pay the liquidated damages. ”

Sophie? Marceo looked at Kang Jianfei strangely, shook his head and said, "No, we are just ordinary friends, I can't lend you so much money." ”

"Then it's up to you," Kang Jianfei said lyrically, "in fact I am not short of money, and freedom is more important than money." ”

Sophie? Marceau nodded, and suddenly smiled at Kang Jianfei: "Kang, you are a good person, if I need to borrow money one day, I will definitely come to you." ”

Kang Jianfei, who swiped another good person card, also smiled: "If you don't want to stay in Gaomeng one day, my company welcomes you to join at any time." ”
