The theater chain of Fox Film Company, which Du Yongxiao acquired, was in full swing this time, and the drama "Raptors Crossing the River" was collectively released.

Of course, those Hollywood film companies that accepted Du Yongxiao's olive branch would not have trouble with money, and after signing a sharing agreement with Du Yongxiao, they also began to fully release the play.

For a time, "Raptors Across the River" was released in the United States.

In the second week, the box office in the United States directly exceeded 10 million.

In the third week, the box office in the United States directly exceeded 30 million!

In the fourth week, the box office in the United States directly exceeded 50 million!

In the fifth week, the box office in the United States directly exceeded 80 million!

In the sixth week, that is, when the drama was about to go offline, the box office in the United States exceeded 100 million!

Suddenly—

This news was like a thunderbolt, shocking the whole of Hollywood, and even the whole of the United States; Even the European side also got the news, the British "Times", the French "Paris Times", and the German "Munich Zeitung" and so on, all of which reported on this one after another.

The Americans were stunned, and the Europeans were even more surprised.

The reason is very simple, Chinese movies have always belonged to the existence of three sticks that can't beat a fart in the world! To be exact, there is no sense of existence!

Not to mention that such films compete with the big movies in Hollywood, even European films, such as French films, British films, cannot compete with them.

Even, Chinese movies are not as good as Dongying movies, at least Dongying movies' "Seven Samurai", "Rashomon" and other films are also internationally famous.

Can -—— now

The birth of "Raptors Across the River", especially such a high box office of more than 100 million, directly stunned the world.

……

For such a Chinese-language movie that broke 100 million, even the President of the United States couldn't sit still, and gave a sentence to reporters: "This fully demonstrates the inclusiveness of our American Hollywood!" Yes, Chinese movies, they look good! ”

The president's understatement of "very good" has put countless Hollywood studios to shame.

If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, you don't know how expensive they are

If you don't film, you don't know how difficult it is to break 100 million at the box office.

So far, many of their companies have not had a decent movie that can directly break 100 million after it is fully released!

However, Du Yongxiao's drama did it.

Of course, these filmmakers immediately became suspicious again, and they first suspected box office fraud, after all, in this era, the box office can break 100 million, which is even more difficult than Zhongliuhe cuisine.

So the U.S. tax department began to investigate, hoping to see Fox's shady operation at the same time as collecting taxes.

But the result surprised everyone, not only did Fox's play not "steal the box office", but even for some reason, the box office revenue was less than a record of 1 million.

However, after the incident, Du Yongxiao immediately ordered the company to make up the million tax payment.

Nothing else is clear, but Du Yongxiao, as an FBI agent, knows that the ability of the US IRS is beyond imagination, and even better than their FBI.

Immediately afterwards, many Hollywood bigwigs collectively began to suspect that in addition to its theaters and other companies, Fox also had other unknown underground theaters.

The box office share of these underground theaters is very low, and the amount of existence is very huge, Du Yongxiao can rely on these theaters to win more than 100 million box office.

But the investigation came out and surprised everyone again.

These underground theaters did find Du Yongxiao and wanted to charge a small share to help screen Du Yongxiao's play, but Du Yongxiao sternly refused.

The reason given by Du Yongxiao is: "In order for Hollywood movies to develop positively, I can't do this!" I'd rather have zero at the box office than do such a low-level deed! ”

For a time, Du Yongxiao's "righteous and awe-inspiring" image jumped on the paper, which made many Hollywood bigwigs sigh to themselves, and then ashamed.

At this moment, Du Yongxiao's new drama breaking 100 million yuan is already a sure thing.

There are still three weeks of release in the future, and according to the box office share, as the producer, Du Yongxiao can earn at least 50 million this time.

A drama earns 50 million, and it is still a Chinese movie, which is simply incredible, and it has completely broken the record in Hollywood and even North America.

In this regard, Paramount owner Carlos, who is bent on annexing Fox, is very frustrated.

He has been borrowing alcohol to kill his sorrows for the past few days, hoping to rely on the anesthesia of alcohol to eliminate the deep sense of failure in his heart.

"Breaking 100 million? How can it break 100 million? My "Godfather" hasn't broken 100 million yet, how can you damn Chinese movies break 100 million? Carlos was in a bad mood, sitting in the office boss's chair, grabbing a bottle and pouring whiskey into his mouth.

The drink ran down the corners of his mouth, wetting his shirt and tie.

"Hehe, someone must be behind him to help him! That's right, otherwise he'd be out of shit luck! ”

"I didn't lose, I still have a chance! Yes, you're just a hit in one drama, and next, I'll make your death ugly! God, I swear to God, I, Carlos, will die! Carlos thought of Du Yongxiao smiling faintly, gritting his teeth with hatred for Du Yongxiao.

……

While Carlos was gritting his teeth, Fox was beating gongs and drums to celebrate the victory.

As the president of the company, Ryder admires Du Yongxiao at the moment, and feels that he has been making movies all his life, and he is not as wonderful as Du Yongxiao this time.

The other members of the board of directors, old Mike and others, looked at Du Yongxiao at the moment, as if they were looking at a god.

Yes, if Du Yongxiao wasn't a god, how could he be considered innocent?

not only manipulated this drama to become popular in Hollywood, but also played those Hollywood bigwigs in the palm of his hand.

They still had disdain for Du Yongxiao before, but now they all worship like "little fans".

Yan Xiong and Du Yongshun have been with Du Yongxiao for too long, and they have long been "numb" to this physiology.

In their opinion, there is nothing in this world that Du Yongxiao can't do.

For Bruce Lee and Luo Lishi, this time Du Yongxiao not only revitalized the drama "Raptors Across the River", but also made Chinese movies stand tall in Hollywood, which people dare not underestimate.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?"

In the Fox conference room, Du Yongxiao glanced at everyone and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm a very fair person, and I will definitely reward my merits and deeds, and I will never be stingy." ”

Du Yongxiao thought that everyone was staring at him to ask for a reward.

Bruce Lee smiled: "Mr. Du, you are wrong. We didn't mean to ask for a reward, it's just-"

"Just what?"

"I just feel like it's all like a dream, it's too unreal."

Du Yongxiao laughed: "What is real and what is unreal?" Now that we've won, it's called real! In addition to rewarding meritorious deeds and celebrating in a big way, we must also take precautions and open a new chapter, and we must not indulge in the victory at this moment. ”

"What do you mean—"

"I mean, your new drama "Enter the Dragon" is about to start filming!" Du Yongxiao said with a smile, "And I plan to make this drama directly in the Hollywood model, the director is a big Hollywood director, and the actors invited are all American and even global kung fu superstars." ”

Everyone looked at Du Yongxiao in surprise, they didn't expect him to play so big.

Once victorious this time, I was ready to continue the stud.

"First of all, in terms of director, I have already chosen the right person, it is Robt Cross, who has quite a career in the field of kung fu films, and is very suitable for this kind of action movie."

"Secondly, in terms of actors, I chose John Saxon, who has a good American cowboy look and is very agile; There is also black star Jim Kelly, as a black belt in karate, his skills are very distinctive, and it must be interesting to arrange him in this play......"

Du Yongxiao talked eloquently to everyone, and finalized the entire lineup in just a few minutes, which is incredible for Ryder and others.

Many film companies shoot movies, and they are often cautious and cautious in choosing directors and actors, often staggering for a month or two, or even half a year, and many times they will change people halfway, but Du Yongxiao-

It's a final word!

In the past, some of these people on the scene might have stood up against it, but now, they feel that Du Yongxiao is right no matter what decision he makes.

In fact, it is.

Du Yongxiao's current director and cast are almost exactly the same as in the previous life.

The drama "Enter the Dragon" almost includes the best action directors in the United States, as well as action stars, followed by bigwigs such as Sammo Hung , Lin Zhengying, Jackie Chan and other big names in Hong Kong, who are also participating in this play, to be precise, playing tricks.

And after the release of this play, the global box office was as high as 230 million US dollars! can be regarded as setting an unbreakable benchmark for future Chinese films in Hollywood, and so far, no Chinese film has been able to break it.

……

After assigning the task, Du Yongxiao made some more decisions, and then announced that everyone was dismissed.

Today's meeting was very relaxed, and everyone was in a happy mood, chatting and leaving the conference room one by one.

When Bruce Lee turned around to leave, Du Yongxiao stopped him from behind.

"Boss, what did you call me for?"

Bruce Lee thought that Du Yongxiao had a task to tell him to do in private, so he made a listening appearance.

Du Yongxiao smiled, took out a cigarette and handed it over.

Bruce Lee waved his hand and said, "I don't smoke!" I also hope you don't smoke, smoking can shorten the life of a warrior! ”

Du Yongxiao was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, he seemed to have never seen Bruce Lee smoking, and only occasionally in the movie would Bruce Lee bite a cigarette in order to play a role.

"I'm sorry." Du Yongxiao knocked the cigarette on the cigarette case, wanted to light it, and finally put it back on.

Seeing this, Bruce Lee said, "You can smoke if you want, it's a big deal that I'll stay away from you." ”

In fact, Bruce Lee himself occasionally smoked, and even played a little hooligan in the movie "The Lonely Hung of the Sea", and he was an iconic figure of smokers, acting vividly.

However, he also said: "Smoking does not necessarily have any health benefits. ”

In addition, when Bruce Lee was in college, in a history class, when the teacher was telling the story of Churchill, he drew a portrait of Churchill smoking, and was scolded by the teacher, he retorted: "I hate smokers." ”

Du Yongxiao smiled, snapped, threw the cigarette case on the table, leaned back in the chair and said, "Forget it, I still don't smoke." Without further ado, you're going to get out like this now? ”

"Uh, what do you mean, I don't understand!"

"I mean-" Du Yongxiao pointed at Bruce Lee, "Do you want to help you with a bodyguard or something, anyway, Pangu Company has just opened, so it's not bad to let them send a few people to help." ”

Bruce Lee smiled, spread his hands, and looked proud: "Why should I have bodyguards?" I'm my own bodyguard! "Clench your fists and do a wrestling move.

Du Yongxiao also smiled: "You still don't understand what I mean, I mean that now that you have become popular, many fans like your movies, like you to fight in the movies, and learn your howling, learn your nunchucks!" ”

Du Yongxiao paused, and looked at Bruce Lee with a smile: "They even gave you a nickname, called - Kung Fu Emperor!" ”

"Uh, Kung Fu Emperor?" Bruce Lee was stunned for a moment, he felt that this nickname was very noble and domineering, and he liked it very much in his heart, but he couldn't show it, so he had to shrug his shoulders and say modestly: "I can't afford this title." ”

"Whether you can afford it or not, there will be a lot of fans following you and flocking to you now, if you don't have bodyguards to protect you, I'm afraid of you-"

"No!" Bruce Lee waved his hand and refused directly, "I've always liked freedom, I don't like to be bound, especially I don't like people to follow me all day long!" Besides, who am I? I'm Bruce Lee in Jeet Kune Do, who dares to do something wrong to me? ”

Du Yongxiao looked at Bruce Lee in surprise, and finally said tentatively: "Really not?" ”

"Not really!" Bruce Lee's attitude was very resolute, "I can do it myself." ”

"Well, then, I won't force you either! Anyway, it is the company that spends money to help you hire, and if you don't want it, then the company will save it! ”

After Du Yongxiao finished speaking, he briefly chatted with Bruce Lee, and the two separated.

After Bruce Lee left, Du Yongxiao grabbed the cigarette case as soon as possible, popped out a cigarette and bit it on his mouth: "Made, suffocate to death!" ”

……

Bruce Lee knew that his drama was a big hit, with a box office of more than 100 million, but he didn't think he could be so popular, after all, this is the United States, and racial discrimination is serious, and many Yankees don't look down on Chinese people at all.

So when Du Yongxiao said that he would be equipped with bodyguards, he felt that this was purely "alarmist".

How can there be so many people?

I don't believe it when he is killed.

When Bruce Lee stepped out of the conference room, he happened to see his friend Luo Lishi coming out of the bathroom, so he stepped forward to say hello: "Hi, Lao Luo!" If you don't have time, why don't you go to the bar for a drink! ”

Although Bruce Lee doesn't smoke, he likes to drink very much, especially when filming, in order to brew emotions, he never leaves his body.

Luo Lishi is also good at this, not to mention that he and Bruce Lee are now sympathetic to each other, and they are also teachers and friends, and immediately replied when they heard this: "Of course it's good, but you have a treat!" ”

"Of course!" Bruce Lee stepped forward and put his arm around Lorris' shoulder, "Let's go, go find a nice bar!" ”

The two walked side by side and quickly took the elevator downstairs.

As soon as they arrived in the hall downstairs, they realized that the situation was wrong, the whole hall was very strange, and everyone was looking at them.

Especially those who were running errands, when they saw them coming down, they also stared at them like a point.

"Huh, what's wrong? What happened? Loris was surprised.

Bruce Lee shook his head: "I don't know, maybe hell!" Ignore them! ”

After Bruce Lee finished speaking, he took Loris and continued to walk outside-

That's when —

"Bruce Lee!"

"It's really Bruce Lee!"

"Oh my God, I saw him!"

The hall was crowded.

Bruce Lee was startled, and was about to speak, but suddenly felt that the ground was buzzing and shaking, as if there were 10,000 colossas rushing towards him, and even the ceiling was shaking.

"What's going on?"

Bruce Lee was still surprised.

Luo Lishi pointed outside sharply and said, "Li, look! ”

Bruce Lee looked outside-

saw thousands of fans flocking from all directions.

"Bruce Lee, I love you!"

"Bruce Lee, sign me!"

The shouts were deafening.

Bruce Lee, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, looked at the scene in front of him, and for the first time felt weak in his heart.

The fans held up posters, billboards, and some even took off their T-shirts while running-——

They bared their teeth and claws, their faces flushed with excitement and adoration.

Bruce Lee's pupils contracted, and he deeply regretted that he didn't listen to Du Yongxiao's words.

Before he could come back to his senses, fans were already drowning him in the sea!
