Chapter 93. [If you don't go crazy, you won't survive]
Yi Feiyang has always been a serious and cautious person. Therefore, in this cooperation with TOP Films, he still found his personal lawyer Louis Carr very seriously and cautiously.
During this period of time, Louis Carr helped Yi Feiyang a lot, especially when the "movie scared people to death" happened, Louis Carr stood on Yi Feiyang's side and resisted guns from all sides for him.
You must know that those wild road trade unions, associations, and countless non-governmental organizations in the United States are not good, and the movie shot by Yi Feiyang scared Old John to death, and several complaints directly sued the young Chinese director in court.
At this time, it was Louis Carr who stepped forward and acted as Yi Feiyang's defense lawyer without hesitation, although civil litigation was not Louis Carr's strong point, but he still helped Yi Feiyang wash away the sewage that was splashed indiscriminately and returned him to a clean slate.
In this regard, Gigalight has always been grateful to Louis Carr for his help.
In Yi Feiyang's view, the test of a person's loyalty is not to see how good his usual mouth is, nor to see whether he is careful and serious, but whether he moves his steps to stand on his side when he is in trouble!
It was clear that Louis Carr was definitely a very loyal partner and a very good personal lawyer.
For friends and loyal business partners, Yi Feiyang has never been stingy, so on Thanksgiving, Yi Feiyang quietly gave him a big gift.
Anyway, on Thanksgiving, Carl was invited by his classmates to go to a party in the evening.
Class reunions like this. It's been a long time since it's been held. The reason is that everyone is very busy. Also because each other has grown up. There is no simple friendship and friendship between them, but more utilitarian.
Who says Americans live their lives with ease?
Who says Americans don't hate the poor and love the rich?
As the most developed country in the West, the greatest motto here is "Money never sleeps!" ”
That night, Carl dressed up and sprayed cologne on his body, and then went out in good spirits and went to the French restaurant where everyone had dinner.
I haven't seen each other for many years, and of course a few of my original classmates have greeted each other and played ass. One of the most developed is a guy named Pluto. This guy is characterized by his penchant for farts, so he was called the "Stinky Fart King" when he was in school.
However, the current "stinky fart king" is really stinky fart, not only as an executive in a Fortune 500 company, but also driving a new car worth $100,000, which can be said to be extremely popular.
However, these are not the things that make Carl pay the most attention, and Ka's eyes are all on Pluto's girlfriend.
Yes, Carl knows her, and she is Carl's first girlfriend, Linda. At the beginning, it was because she thought Carl was incapable that she got rid of Carl. threw himself into the arms of this "stinky fart king" Pluto.
To do this, Carl worked hard. studied hard, and finally got a lawyer's license a year ago and became a young lawyer in the Hollywood entertainment industry.
However, Carl has achievements, and the achievements of the stinky fart king are obviously greater, which can be distinguished from each other's cars.
The $100,000 Mercedes-Benz of "Stinky Fart King" Pluto is enough for Linda to proudly prove that it was definitely the right decision to get rid of Carl in the first place!
Carl, he came by taxi, and he had a car, but last year he sold it to get a lawyer's license.
But in order to save some face, he lied that his car broke down.
Yes, in the United States, how can a successful person not have a private car?
Ex-girlfriend Linda saw through him at a glance and ridiculed him for lying. Carl wanted to slap this bitch a few times at the time, he still had some friendship with her, but she didn't give herself face.
As for the stinky fart king and others, they had already leaned back and laughed, and they laughed at Carl for "dying to save face", and he was an idiot.
At that moment, Carl really wanted to dig a crack in the ground and get into it.
The class reunion ended gloomily.
The stinky fart king put his arm around Linda, and the dog man and woman continued to show off their might, pressing their new car worth $100,000, and asked Carl, would you like to give you a ride?
What can Carl say? can only smile dryly and refuse the other party's "kindness".
But the story doesn't end there.
Just when Carl was blushing and ready to fight, a beautiful sports car slowly drove up to him, opened the door, Yi Feiyang threw the car key to him very chicly, and said, "This is your gift, Carl, Happy Thanksgiving!" ”
How could Louis Carr not expect that Yi Feiyang would send him such a beautiful car!
No matter what, it's rare to turn over and be majestic once, so in the stunned eyes of the stinky fart king, as well as Linda and others, Carl started the engine and walked away.
The stinky fart king behind him swallowed and foamed, this is a BMW worth 300,000, this damn Carl, so good that he didn't learn, he actually learned to pretend to be forced!
……
Afterwards, Louis Carr asked Yi Feiyang, "Why do you want to be so good to me?" I'm just a little lawyer. ”
Yi Feiyang's answer was, "I never saw you as a lawyer, but as a friend!" Friends are good to friends, as they should be! ”
This faint "should" made Carl extremely moved.
What does this mean?
It shows that China Yi does not regard itself as an outsider!
Yes, we are friends!
Friends should watch and help each other, and stick a knife in both sides!
At that moment, Louis Carr told himself that no matter when, he would not betray this friendship.
years of friendship,
Long live the friendship!
……
Since receiving Yi Feiyang's gift on Thanksgiving, Louis Carr has become more respectful of Yi Feiyang's boss and has worked harder to do things.
Now, Yi Feiyang asked him to sign a legally effective cooperation document with TOP company, and Karna is serious and responsible to the extreme.
Even Henry the Elephant's personal lawyer couldn't help but be impressed by this peer, it was too bullish and thoughtful. I've never seen anyone so close. Even every clause is analyzed so carefully!
In a word. With the help of a loyal and professional personal lawyer like Louis Carr, Yi Feiyang is not afraid of being pitted by Henry the Elephant.
After signing the contract agreement between the two parties, Yi Feiyang officially took office as a director.
Now he is faced with many problems to do, the first of which is to write the script.
The script that was created before was only the general content and basic idea, to put it bluntly, it was a movie outline that was full of hunger. Now it is necessary to enrich this outline, add oil and vinegar, and increase the character and character attributes. Let this drama be flesh and blood and become plump.
This kind of work is not heavy, mainly because it consumes brain cells too much. In contrast, Henry, the elephant who signed the cooperation agreement, was idle.
Seeing that his partner was busy, he couldn't help but ask, "What am I doing now?" ”
Yi Feiyang said casually: "Just leave this drama to me, if you are really idle, go to the street to do good deeds and collect yin virtue...... After all, Christmas is coming! ”
……
yes, Christmas is almost here.
Hollywood's film market is also starting to get lively.
As a matter of fact. Since Thanksgiving this year, the American film market has entered a "robbery" schedule - Christmas. This is said because it is the end of the year, and the major film companies not only have one eye on the bulging purses of fans during the holidays, but also aim at the "awards season" that began on December 1 with the other eye, from the Oscars to the Golden Globe, from the Screen Actors Guild Awards to the Film Critics Association Awards, grabbing money and grabbing awards cannot be delayed, so fans can see a lot of high-quality products in this schedule, and of course they will also find the familiar faces of many superstars.
With the successive appearances of these superstars, major film companies are working hard to promote their new films, so a big melee that is even cooler and more dazzling than Halloween has begun!
But no one could have imagined that in private, the Chinese director who was once scared to death by everyone coaxed to shoot was helping TOP Company shoot a very flavorful Christmas erotic film ...... "Saving the Female Soldier Rachel"!
In the words of Henry, the TOP boss Elephant, "I'm not a high-ranking person, nor am I an artist or filmmaker; I'm just a very low-level little movie boss, and my only hope is that I can do my best to let everyone remember this TOP movie and have a happy Christmas! By the way, please remember the slogan of our show: This Christmas is a little sexy! ”
For the elephant Henry, he can't wait to know that his company is filming a new drama, and it is very likely that he will rely on this erotic film to join the melee Hollywood Christmas file, in contrast, Yi Feiyang is much more low-key.
It's not that Yi Feiyang is afraid that others will laugh at him for making this type of movie, it seems that the more he mixes up, the more he goes back, the more he mixes, the more low-level he becomes...... The great film artist Stanislavsky once said in his book "The Self-cultivation of Actors" that an actor does not have the right to choose a role, but has the right to play a role well!
By analogy, a director does not have the right to choose the script, but he has the power to shoot the script well!
What's more, in the eyes of a really good director, no matter what type of movie, you should be at ease.
Please don't belittle any genre at will, because any movie that the audience likes to watch and praises is a good movie!
It's the same with erotica!
I don't know how many people still remember the "Pope" Tindo Barras who dominated the erotic film industry.
If you say, the real intention of the director of each drama can only be truly realized after you have seen it. In this regard alone, Ballas stands at the height of a great god, Hong Kong directors make erotic films mostly for commercial interests and entertainment, while he not only uses eroticism to express his ideological views, but also erotic allegoricals.
In fact, the "erotic pope" who has been admired by countless movie fans, before shooting erotica, was a standard arthouse film young man, and in the first ten years of his career, his films were full of avant-garde grotesque plots and dreamlike surreal images.
Unfortunately, the path of art was not so easy to follow, and the arrogant Barras ran into walls everywhere for this, until he suddenly realized what he wanted to shoot, so he plunged into the world of erotica and eventually became a generation of popes.
Yi Feiyang is also experimenting now, trying different types of movies; Especially in order to get the eight movie theater lines, he has to cheer up and shoot this drama well.
In his opinion, God is not easy to do, so go into the devil first!
If you don't go crazy, you won't survive! (To be continued......)
