553【Guojun Palace】
Kang Jianfei and Annie? Hurd, Barry? Moreau chatted a few words, then took the script and read it. After only seeing half of it, Kang Jianfei realized that what he got was the original script of "Rain Man", which was very different from the plot in the movie before the time-travel.
Patiently read the script, Kang Jianfei vs. Barry? "The script is good, it's touching," Morrow said. ”
"Thanks for the compliment!" Barry? Morrow said happily.
There are so many screenwriters in Hollywood that they write countless scripts every year, but very few can actually make movies. Like Barry? A young screenwriter like Moreau, unless he is lucky enough to meet Bole, he has to slowly improve his qualifications and experience, and accumulate fame step by step in order to get ahead.
The script of "Rain Man" can be appreciated by the owner of the film company, Barry? Moreau felt that he was one step closer to success, and the fat on his chubby face trembled as he laughed.
"But," Kang Jianfei's next words told Barry? Moreau's heart tightened, "The script still has some deficiencies, and the filming may not be satisfactory." ”
Barry? Mo Luo hurriedly said: "Mr. Kang, I will revise it carefully." ”
"I hope to revise it myself," Kang Jianfei smiled slightly and said to him, "Don't worry, the first screenwriter still signs your name." ”
For the screenwriter, the script is like his child, but now Kang Jianfei is going to be the child's stepfather, Barry? Moreau was still a little awkward in his heart.
However, even if it is a well-known senior screenwriter, it is impossible to guarantee that his script will not change word for word. Morrow could only nod in agreement.
Kang Jianfei asked Annie again? Hurd: "Who do you think would be the director?" ”
"Sidney? How about Polculk? "Annie? Hurd asked.
Sidney? Pollack is the one who has just finished filming "Out of Africa". More than a year ago, he went to Hong Kong with a script to fool Kang Jianfei into investing 10 million, and then took Kang Jianfei's letter of intent to invest in 20th Century Fox.
And it is precisely because of the cooperation "Out of Africa". So Annie? Hurd has a good personal relationship with Pollak, and his first reaction after getting the script of "Rain Man" was to ask Polllack to be the director.
The original director of "Rain Man" was Barry? Levinson, but this person's current status and fame in Hollywood is far inferior to Sidney? Pollack's.
Kang Jianfei thought for a while and said, "Yes, you can contact him." ”
After sending off the two Yankees, Kang Jianfei took the script of "Rain Man" and flew north the next day. Hu Juncai's kid's wedding is about to be held, as the first friend he met after crossing over. Kang Jianfei has to go to the wedding.
Annie? Contact Sidney as soon as Hurd returned to the U.S.? Pollack wanted to invite him to be the director of "Rain Man", but unfortunately Pollack had just taken over a movie. I didn't have time to shoot "Rain Man" at all.
Then there was a coincidence that made Kang Jianfei feel weird, Sidney? After Pollack refused to direct "Rain Man", he actually asked Anne? Hurd recommended Barry, the original director of "Rain Man" in another time and space? Levinson.
It turns out that the two directors Ballack and Levinson are friends, and the world's best-selling "My Fair Lady" a few years ago. Is that Barry? Levinson is a screenwriter and assistant director. Sidney? Directed by Pollack.
Messing around, "Rain Man" still ends up in Barry? In Levinson's hands, it's just that the second screenwriter has become Kang Jianfei.
……
"Ah Fei!" At the pick-up gate of the capital airport, Ye Zipei, a pretty widow who had not seen her for several months, suppressed her excitement and waved at Kang Jianfei and shouted.
Zhang Degong, Zhu Zhenguo and Liu Fei's three bodyguards dragged their luggage behind, and Kang Jianfei walked quickly and hugged Ye Zipei tightly in his arms and gave him a warm hug.
Although Chinese people rarely make love on the streets in recent years, fortunately, many foreign film and television works have flowed in. In addition, the people who can fly are more knowledgeable than the average person, so the surrounding passengers are not surprised by the actions of the two.
However, Ye Zipei was a little embarrassed. Because Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan were also beside her, she pushed Kang Jianfei away and whispered, "Don't do this!" ”
Kang Jianfei smiled and turned to Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan, and said, "Congratulations to the two of you, a lover has finally become a family." ”
Ye Zishan smiled happily: "Xie Luxie." ”
Hu Juncai was also very happy, he asked, "Ah Fei, when will it be my turn to drink your wedding wine?" ”
Since having a daughter, Kang Jianfei is not so afraid of family and marriage, but he is not sure who he should marry, the main reason is that he has too many women.
Outside the airport hall, there were two cars, one was Hu Juncai's private car, and the other was Ye Zishan's bus.
Hu Juncai's private car is very interesting, the appearance seems to be square and dull, but there are some subtle arcs and edges, which can be described as clever and clumsy. At first glance, the appearance of the car is so ugly that it is explosive, but after a few more glances, I found that there is a little taste, which is a very classic and attractive model.
Kang Jianfei got in the car and asked, "What kind of car is this, it's quite personal, I'll get one another day." ”
Hu Juncai introduced: "Lada 2105, a rough car imported from the Soviet Union, can not be compared with your car. ”
Ye Zipei now lives in the Ye Mansion in the capital, and Kang Jianfei rarely goes to a hotel, so he lives directly in a courtyard house in Xicheng District.
This courtyard house was bought by Kang Jianfei and Hu Juncai, and it cost a total of 600,000 yuan to run government relations and resettle the original residents, and at this time, the ordinary courtyard house in Beijing was only five or six thousand yuan.
The reason why Kang Jianfei spent so much money to buy a courtyard house was because he bought the top grade in the courtyard house in the capital - Guojun Wangfu in Mengrui Hutong.
Yes, it is the King of Guojun in "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
However, the Guojun Wangfu is too big, divided into dozens of courtyards, with one hundred and fifty or sixty houses. Kang Jianfei's 600,000 yuan only bought the courtyards No. 41, No. 42, No. 43, No. 44 and No. 45 of Guojun Wangfu.
If Kang Jianfei didn't buy it, the houses would be demolished in 20 years, leaving only part of Courtyard 45, and he felt that he was not only taking advantage of the bargain to buy good things, but also protecting cultural relics.
After a few months of renovation and renovation. The five quadrangle houses have all become brand new, and they are many times better than the one Hu Juncai bought.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the courtyards in the capital basically became miscellaneous courtyards. Hu Juncai's courtyard house is a typical example, you can hear the sound of children crying and husband and wife arguing every day, and you can't get rid of it.
Kang Jianfei was much more generous, the residents who originally lived in the five courtyard houses, he directly gave his family 5,000 yuan, which was more than enough to buy a house, and the "aborigines" happily moved away.
I have to say. Kang Jianfei has too much RMB in his hand, and he can't spend it enough.
The money earned from selling movies on the mainland is all in renminbi, and this money cannot be exchanged for dollars or Hong Kong dollars. You can only find a way to invest and spend it on the mainland. In addition to building movie theaters, opening department stores and record companies, Kang Jianfei really didn't know how to spend money, so he could only buy things everywhere to turn RMB into fixed assets.
And now Kang Jianfei's several department stores and record companies are also making money every day, and the RMB in his hand is becoming more and more. If you can't use up the money, you can simply donate more than half of it to get a good reputation.
Just after the Spring Festival this year. Kang Jianfei donated 2 million yuan to the local government that cooperated with him to build the cinema, and 1 million yuan to each of the ten best universities in China, and then donated 1 million yuan and 2 million yuan respectively to Dengfeng County and Zheng/Zhou City, where the Shaolin Temple is located, and then donated a total of 10 million yuan to more than a dozen poor areas.
Kang Jianfei donated more than 40 million yuan that could not be spent within a month, and his generosity had surpassed that of Boss Shao and Huo Daheng, and he suddenly became a big red capitalist. The leaders of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office and the Hong Kong branch of the Xinhua News Agency were also extremely happy, because Kang Jianfei's patriotic behavior was their great political achievement.
"It's a nice place!" Kang Jianfei walked into his No. 45 courtyard of Guojun Wangfu. I couldn't help but admire.
Although it is not as delicate and delicate as the pavilions and water pavilions in the southern garden, this county palace has its own atmosphere and luxury. Compared with the Guojun Palace, which has a deep courtyard and carved beams, Kang Jianfei feels that his Repulse Bay No. 4 villa is garbage.
Ye Zipei also came for the first time, and couldn't help but praise: "It's so beautiful here, it's almost time to catch up with the palace." ”
Hu Juncai said: "You don't know the way, this No. 45 courtyard is a little better, when No. 41 and No. 43 courtyards were first bought, the yard was full of dirt and sewage, the foundation was a little rotten, and the walls were also broken in many places." The renovation of these courtyards cost tens of thousands of yuan, enough to buy ten courtyard houses in Beijing. ”
Kang Jianfei said: "If you like it, you can all move in and live, anyway, if the Wujin yard is empty, it can only become moldy." ”
"Okay, you can come here to relax if you don't have anything to do." Ye Zishan took the lead in saying that she couldn't survive the family after all, and now she honestly entered the Central Committee of the League as a small clerk.
Hu Juncai is now the shareholder and general manager of Shaolin Temple Tourism Development Company and Oriental International Cinema (cinema company), and his net worth is not to mention that he is in the mainland, even in Hong Kong.
With money, it is naturally easy to do things, and the wedding of Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan will only take place the day after tomorrow, but all kinds of preparations have already been done, just waiting for the banquet to invite the guests to get married.
A few people sat under the trees in the palace garden, and a pot of tea was placed on a stone table.
It didn't take long to chat, and the topic got down to business, Hu Juncai said: ""Shushan" sells well in the mainland, but the box office is only less than 30 million, do you believe it or not? ”
Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "Anyway, the mainland box office dream factory of "Shushan" can't get a dime, it doesn't matter if I believe it or not." ”
Hu Juncai said: "I mean, the reviews of DreamWorks released in the mainland last year had a good response from the market, but the box office was less than the other. ”
"What are you doing?" Ye Zipei asked curiously.
Hu Juncai explained: "Major theaters are becoming more and more rampant, and in the past, they only sold pirated copies to conceal the box office a month after the movie was released, so as to make a little money and distribute unit benefits. Now they dare to mess around as soon as they are released, and some movie theaters actually dare to show pirated copies from beginning to end, and all these box offices are divided between local governments and movie theaters. ”
"Well, forget it, the general environment is like this." Kang Jianfei said with emotion, this phenomenon was still common in 2000, and you can't control it at all. It's not bad now, at least most of the box office has been reported, and ten years later, a movie will sell 30 million, and the film party can see that 10 million box office is good, so that the movie theater makes a lot of money, but the film's production company loses money.
In the lost decade of Chinese films, the reason why the total box office was so low, in addition to the invasion of pirated VCDs and DVDs, another important reason is that the fraud in the cinema caused a lot of Chinese films that should have made money to lose money, and as a result, directors can only make movies to win awards and sell overseas copyrights to make money, and few people make films for the domestic box office.
Hu Juncai said: "The best way is to build more of our own theaters, I plan to expand the scale of Oriental International Cinema to 8 this year, I have already done the official relationship, and the construction will start next month." ”
Kang Jianfei had a lot of RMB in his hand anyway, so he smiled: "You can do it." Then he asked Ye Zipei, "Sister Pei, how is Xiongfei Records?" ”
Ye Zipei said with a smile: "I counted the money until my hands cramped, and the company's net profit last year was more than 11 million." ”
"How much?" Kang Jianfei looked at Ye Zipei in surprise, there were only seven or eight employees of Xiongfei Record Company and singers, and there would be tens of millions of pure profits.
Ye Zipei said: "Last year, Li Ningyu released two records, with sales of more than 200 million, and most of the company's profits were earned back by her. ”
In Hong Kong, where the economy is developed, Anita Mui can sell 200,000 copies of a record, but the economically backward mainland can easily sell millions of copies. Moreover, at this time, the record tapes on the mainland were still sold at a high price, five or six yuan per cassette tape, and the monthly salary of most workers was less than 100 yuan.
Kang Jianfei nodded approvingly: "Well, yes, send her a little more red envelopes, lest she be poached." ”
Ye Zipei said with a smile: "I still need to say that the red envelope was given earlier, Ayu is now a little rich woman, and she has at least 200,000 yuan in the bank." ”
This is not an era of showing off wealth, the common people have money for fear of being known, and many 10,000 households eat and wear the same as asking for food, for fear that if they have more money, they will become capitalists and be criticized.
When Li Ningyu was interviewed a year ago, she excitedly told reporters that she was about to become a 10,000 yuan household by singing......
Ye Zipei said: "It's still Ah Fei, your song is well written, and the capital is very popular." ”
"Yes," Ye Zishan said, "After Li Ningyu sang the song "The Moon Walks and I Walk", it is now playing all over the street, and my dad likes to listen to it. ”
Kang Jianfeitian smiled shamelessly: "Hehe, it's still Ayu who sings well." (To be continued......)
PS: I wish you all a happy Tanabata Festival.
