Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Last Time (Chapter 1 of 4,000 Words)
Alyosha was a young man in his twenties, with red hair suggesting that he was of Irish descent, but he was more quiet and shy, not at all as enthusiastic and irascible as his mother, intelligent but straightforward.
When my father called, he was playing board games with a friend and told the maid that he would be taking a shower when he called back in half an hour.
"But, your father told you to answer the phone right away, right away."
"Okay, I'll go."
At this time, another maid came in and pushed the phone at the same time.
There were five telephones in the mansion, and Princess Sophia called him.
"Ah, push the phone over, cousin hasn't called me in a long time."
The cousin is brave, beautiful, powerful, beautiful, etc., as if she was kissed by the god of light when she was born, known as the golden rose, Alyosha likes to follow her cousin since she was a child, and when she grows up, she admires her cousin even more after being taught a few times, but unfortunately the cousin is busy all day long, rarely calling him, let alone going out together.
As for talking about my father's phone number? Wait, nothing.
"Alyosha, I need a song from your film company below."
"No problem, though...... I don't have a film company under my name, do I? ”
Alyosha was stunned for a moment, he now works in a certain agency to improve his qualifications, unlike other nobles, there are no such messes in his name.
"It's the Big White Bear Film and Television Company, numbered 98654673, it was established, you are the only shareholder, why, you are not happy to be exposed by your sister?"
"Cousin, I really didn't set up any Big White Bear Film and Television Company, you know, I'm a staff member now......"
He tried to discern, and at this moment, the servant pushed another phone over, indicating that it was his father who was calling, and that there was something urgent.
"Cousin, why don't you wait a minute, I'll find out what's going on, and I'll call you later."
Hanging up on her cousin's phone, Alyosha took another call.
"Alyosha, the Great White Bear Film and Television Company was opened by you, and you told her that there is no problem with the movie, but don't be in a hurry to agree to anything, just say it...... It's going to be done quickly, it's more troublesome, but it must be done well, understand? ”
"Dad, you're drinking and getting confused, aren't you?"
Alyosha frowned.
"What studio, what film, what the hell is going on, I don't know anything, and, what's this document you telex? Night Female Soldier Platoon Movie?
You asked me to lie to my cousin about this movie, you drank too much vodka, right? ”
“…… Listening to my father, this matter is very difficult. ”
"I see, Dad, you're stealing again, okay, what's in it for me?"
“(?? へ?? ╬)……”
……
Moscow.
At six o'clock in the morning, after Shen Yu got up from bed, he heard the female secretary say that the Grand Duke had been waiting for him in the dining room for half an hour.
Hearing this news, Shen Yu did not feel honored, but had a bad feeling in his heart.
He made an appointment with the Grand Duke, and when he came to make a movie, he would not contact him first, and then talk about it when the film was made.
But now......
Hurriedly tidied up his clothes, and Shen Yu walked downstairs.
On the American side, he can be at ease, but when he comes to the Russian side, he has to be careful about many things.
Did something happen?
When he came downstairs, the Grand Duke greeted him very warmly, and after letting everyone below retreat, the Grand Duke said what he meant.
It's for the Katyusha song.
"My niece, Princess Sophia, wants to sing this song."
The Grand Duke said with a wry smile.
Shen Yu didn't answer, just sighed slightly.
When the movie was made, the two agreed that the Grand Duke would not interfere in anything with the crew, and block any pressure for Shen Yu, Shen Yu would ensure the quality of the film and would satisfy the Grand Duke.
The previous guarantee is actually nothing, and Shen Yu's guarantee is the real one.
It can be said that if it weren't for Shen Yu's request for the Grand Duke, and he was young and proud, the Grand Duke would take this sentence to find a great director from another country, even if it was from his own country, people would have a haha, what headache and brain fever, what physical discomfort and so on.
Do you really think propositional essays are easy to write? Do you really think it's easy to make subjective assumptions?
As a result, it's good now, as soon as Shen Yu landed, you came over and said that you wanted to sing the theme song to your niece......
The Grand Duke was also embarrassed.
Last night, the Grand Duke took the score for people to sing and sang it himself, and after singing, he was very, very satisfied, Shen Yu was really too authentic.
Go to a restaurant to eat egg fried rice, people give you a spicy chicken, go to the store to buy clothes, people give you more expensive necklaces, and Shen Yu took out this song, even the Grand Duke felt very moved.
Asked Shen Yu to make a movie, someone reminded the Grand Duke not to be deceived by this person - another time and space, many small countries, big countries, foreign directors came to film, saying that it was to promote you, and it was good to say that the movie was filmed, but it was to expose the dark side of society, or Piri Yangqiu, there are not too many officials invited to death, and this world is the same, even the Grand Duke has encountered it, and invited the great director of the Ming Dynasty to come over, but people pursue truth, goodness and beauty, ah no, it is something that can stimulate the audience, and he is very uncomfortable when he gets out of the pit.
The Grand Duke also has this worry, although Shen Yu jokes that he will be sent to feed the bear if he doesn't shoot well, but no matter what, Russia will not embarrass Shen Yu.
Three movies are out there, what else can you really do with him?
This person still doesn't release the script!
Then, they came up with a song first.
Do you really think people don't know about secrecy? No, people will give you peace of mind.
This golden song confirms that the whole movie must be positive, and it can make the Grand Duke not worry about the quality of the movie, this kind of intimate cooperation is really good.
"This song, Director Shen, let's go according to the market price, what do you think?"
The Grand Duke is ready for heavy bleeding, and the eldest princess gave Shen Yu 100,000 rubles, which is a sky-high price in the composition world, but this song is in Shen Yu's hands, and it is worth at least more than 5 million US dollars.
Don't underestimate this song, a golden song can make an ordinary person soar into the sky, and rely on this song for a lifetime to eat, a divine comedy can generate tens of millions of benefits (total) over the decades.
The contract between him and Shen Yu is in terms of movies, Katyusha's song is not written in the contract, Shen Yu can say that this song was created before, the copyright belongs to a certain company, you want to negotiate with another company, you can't blame others, people took it out and put it in the movie for you to use for free, you should be very grateful.
After your movie is released, the movie is very popular, and the song is also very popular, and then people can use this song to make money wildly, roughly, and for a long time.
…… I have to say that Director Shen is a genius with an appetite.
Bought out at a price of millions, the prince still owes Shen Yu a favor.
"Your Excellency the Grand Duke, I said before that this song belongs to this movie, and I am going to use it as the theme song, and the entire copyright of this movie belongs to you, the Grand Duke, so this song belongs to you now, and there is no reason for you to pay for your own things."
Shen Yu's words made the Grand Duke froze for a moment.
"I am very grateful to His Excellency the Grand Duke for his trust in me, I will also do my best to make the movie well, this song is part of this movie, the copyright belongs to you, the Grand Duke, after the movie is released, the eldest princess can sing as much as she wants, but now, I hope the Grand Duke will not interfere with my creation, I have already selected the singing personnel, please forgive the Grand Duke."
Shen Yu poured himself and the Grand Duke a cup of black tea each.
You have a cup, I have a cup, everyone is fair and equal.
I took out the song, not to bring goods with movies, but to give it to you sincerely, don't insult me with money.
You are not decent, I am decent, I hope you are decent.
The understanding of serving tea to the guests, the Grand Duke also knew that if it was for other requests at this time, he would have left in shame, but this time the trustee was different, it was his niece, she sacrificed too many things for the royal family.
Director Shen ...... I really didn't want to interfere with your creative freedom, mainly my niece, who only escaped death yesterday, and then begged me for a favor, she rarely said anything to me, I really can't refuse.
She is also kind and very nice, you listen to yesterday's phone recording. ”
With that, he took the tape out of his bag and put it on the radio.
The Grand Duke's phone calls were recorded, and now they were just taken out.
"Well, the song is very good, I think that person is pitiful, you can give him some chances.
His character is very good, the script is probably not written by him, but a person like his cousin, who suddenly became interested in writing a movie book and looking for a woman, and then the big director didn't shoot, and an unknown director like him rushed up to the thunder for money and a glimmer of opportunity.
He worked hard to write the theme song, even in the cabin, he was sketching and perfecting the script, and he didn't tell the inside story when I asked him, defending the owner behind it, and so on.
Give him some chances, poor man, uncle. ”
After playing this recording, the Grand Duke politely added two pieces of sugar to Shen Yu's black tea.
If you are a truly talented artist, you don't have to use any power to oppress others, it is good to move talents with emotion.
Shen Yu was also stunned when she heard this, this princess seems to be really good, and besides, she ......
"She has a good voice, but can she sing?"
"This is her previous recording, covering some famous songs, experts said that her voice is excellent, not inferior to any female voice or even stronger, as for the song Katyusha, I asked her to sing it on the phone yesterday, this is her temporary voice."
The Grand Duke was well prepared and took out several tapes.
Shen Yu listened and nodded.
Well, in fact, it hasn't been decided who will sing Shen Yu, it's just that I don't like others to point fingers, but the eldest princess looks okay, so let's solve a good fate.
"This is the last time, okay?"
"Of course you can, below, even if it's my brother's request, I'll block it back!"
The Grand Duke said very firmly.
"Okay, trouble the Grand Duke, let her record a few more versions of the music as requested, and I'll pick the right ones to put in the movie to replace the actress's voice."
Shen Yu sighed and stared into the Grand Duke's eyes.
"For the last time?"
"One last time."
Grand Duke, you now know why I didn't give you the script, right?
I can't tell you the movie script because there will be people who want to point fingers.
You think you're creating a peerless art film, and others should hold their breath and wait for you to finish it, but in fact, it's people who want to stomp on the undried cement.
The better and better a work is, the more outsiders want to leave traces on her body and make her belly bigger......
Fortunately, Princess Celestia didn't know the truth about the filming, otherwise she might have come over and say, since she used my voice, then ...... How about designing a character of mine and singing this song?
Director, please!
……
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, autumn has arrived.
Ivanov lay on the second floor of Changfeng Film and Television Company, happily drinking black tea.
The boss went to the Russian Empire and gave six of their bodyguards a month-long vacation, allowing them to do whatever they wanted, whether it was a globetrotting trip or a rest vacation.
Everyone understands what the boss means, Ivanov and others are all born on the Russian side, although they have immigrated here, but there are many relationships, and this time the past is not good - do you really think it is easy to make four masterpieces in a year? Anyway, many masterpieces of great directors are two or three in a lifetime, and these two or three are the experience that has been piled up after decades of failure and success.
The Grand Duke of Russia has paid so much for Shen Yu, many of which are still things that cannot be purchased with money, and if Shen Yu cannot satisfy the Grand Duke, then he will need to pay even more.
And Ivanov and others accompanied Shen Yu in the past, and there will inevitably be well-meaning or self-assertive people who will come forward to contact them and ask them how to be.
"You don't have to accompany me to the past, this time my personal safety in the past will definitely be guaranteed, you have to pay attention to not to get fat, I come back, if anyone is overweight, then the money will be deducted."
All right...... This is a bit excessive, although Ivanov runs and exercises every day, but staying in Hollywood, where the four seasons are like spring, and all kinds of food every day, Ivanov is still a little heavier.
It's just five pounds.
"Strongly protest against director Shen Yu'......"
There was a slogan below, and Ivanov rolled his eyelids helplessly.
This is all Shen Yu's sin.
Before Shen Yu, he was going to shoot Batman, which is the fourth part of Gotham, and vowed to say that the Godfather, Saving Private Gordon and Schindler's list are the first three, the Godfather, the policeman and the businessman, and the next one is Catwoman, and he will shoot a total of nine to ten movies in four years to construct the outline of the Gotham world.
The outline of the first season.
In the era when there is no Internet, people's attention is more concentrated, a song can make a king, a movie can make people talk about it for many days, and the spiritual bomb brought by Shen Yu to everyone undoubtedly made many people tremble with excitement.
Batman's comics are out of stock, and everyone is discussing how the story will be filmed when they get together, and many people appreciate Director Shen's ability to shoot movies one after another because he doesn't participate in various public activities, doesn't take vacations, and says that our money is ready, and you must not let everyone down with the donkey on the farm.
Godfather, police officer, businessman......
Then the donkeys from the farmstead ran to St. Petersburg to shoot a film for the Russians, which left everyone speechless.
Is this a human thing?
Moreover, you also state that this film is not the fourth installment in the Gotham series, but a separate work, and you teased everyone and ran away somewhere else?
In addition to film shooting, Hollywood is also a tourist attraction, and there is an endless stream of tourists who come to Changfeng Film and Television Company every day, wanting to see the company's museum - unfortunately, as a small film company, there is no such thing at all, but there are still many tourists who come and hold up a sign with the word protest and ask Shen Yu to update quickly......
"Well, I also want to know, what the hell is the fourth part......"
Ivanov sighed.
