Chapter 321: Hollywood's Invitation
The sun is shining and the summer breeze is gentle.
Yue Mao Hotel next to the Bund in Shanghai.
Lee is sitting by a window, through which he can see the towering Oriental Pearl Tower and the Huangpu River.
This is his third day in Shanghai, and the cross-strait director seminar has long ended.
Yang De's words have attracted some media hype.
The vast majority of them are touting, and they ignore Yang Dezhuan's other words, saying that Li Shengyao is the first young director in the three regions of the Taiwan Strait.
Regarding this, Li Shengyao can't care so much, he can only tell himself to have a normal heart.
Regardless of the previous results, the next step is to start from scratch and seriously prepare for the next movie.
Deng Chao and Li Lianhua had already rushed to Star City, and most of the crew members also rushed over.
Several assistant directors have spoken to him on the phone, and the preliminary preparations have been completed.
If Li Shengyao passes now, he will be able to turn on immediately.
However, there are still some things that he needs to delay for a few days.
One of the events is that three days later will be the Huabiao Awards Gala, and he will attend as a guest of honor.
At this time, he was sitting here to wait for a person, this person was named Jia. Smith is said to be a very good international headhunter.
Perennial in Shanghai, looking for talents for those multinational companies.
And is the purpose of his search for Lee Shengyao this time?
It should be lobbying for the island country, Hong Kong Island, or that bent capital.
Li Shengyao was too lazy to see such a person, but Smith actually invited Cheng Long, so he sold his favor to Cheng Long.
"Extreme Escape" will have a lot of high-altitude jumping scenes, and when the time comes, he will let Cheng Long make a cameo.
Cheng Long easily jumped over from two buildings of more than ten meters, and then turned to the male and female protagonists and said, "Look, it's very simple, come here."
A moment later, Smith came over, he was about forty years old, he looked ordinary, his belly was slightly bulging, although he was wearing a suit and his hair was all combed back, but he looked like an ordinary middle-aged man.
The two exchanged a few words, Li Shengyao asked for water, and Smith ordered coffee.
Smith then said in English, "Lee, who do you suppose I am looking for you for?"
Lee Shengyao is not a little girl, she likes to guess.
Moreover, he has seen the biography of Su Qin and Zhang Yi, and knows the lobbyist's speaking routine.
He didn't bother to answer, looked at Smith silently, and then turned his head away.
Smith paused slightly, realizing that Li Shengyao was very defensive and not an easy person to persuade.
Li Shengyao didn't speak, so he took the initiative to speak.
"Li, you shouldn't guess that when I came here this time, I was actually commissioned by the Fox Group in Pretty Country, and they hoped that Ling could go to Pretty Country and help them shoot TV."
Without waiting for Li Shengyao to answer, Smith took the lead and said: "Li, don't be in a hurry to refuse, I know that you have a lot of achievements and industries in Huaxia, but listen to me slowly."
It turned out to be not Hong Kong Island Bend Capital, nor was it Island Capital, but for Fox lobbying, Li Shengyao was a little surprised, it seems that "Beyond Hell" is indeed popular.
"You say."
Smith nodded, then stood up and pointed out the window, "Look at the Bund, the place where the girls in China yearn for, if someone has an industry on the Bund, let the news out, even if he is only one meter four, even if he looks ugly, he is still popular." ”
He continued, "And the beautiful country is such a place, if you achieve something in the beautiful country, the girls all over the world will look at it, you will have an experience that you have never experienced before, the happiness of the rich over there is definitely not something you can imagine." ”
The beautiful country is a paradise for the rich, and it is indeed a good time to have a good time, all kinds of parties.
And there are girls from all over the world, black sisters, white girls, Asian girls, and brown Brazilian girls.
This point cannot be compared with the country, the money in the country is sneaky, and the beautiful country can play openly.
Lee Shengyao has enough money, he wants to play, and he can go over now, but he's already low-key.
Even if he is the richest man in the world, he plays with women secretly.
He is about the same as Bill Gates.
He chuckled and shook his head, "I don't need to, I'm not interested." ”
Smith was not discouraged, "Li, I have been here for a long time, I know what you Chinese think, you pay attention to being born there and dying there, but it is just a journey, your departure will make you stronger, you will learn more advanced, more outstanding shooting systems and experience." ”
"When you go back home, you're going to be more talented, you're going to be different."
This may be true, at present, the production of domestic film and television dramas is too rough.
Still.
To shoot a TV series for others, isn't that just a part-time job for others.
Li Shengyao's brain is in water, so he will have this idea.
"I refuse."
Smith was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't dwell on it.
"Lee, I see what you mean."
"But there's one more thing I've got next, and I'm sure you're more interested in that."
Li Shengyao nodded, "You say." ”
"In addition to the Fox Group, Disney asked me to tell you that they want you to help Disney make a movie."
Disney originally planned to let Lee Shengyao write a script for them, but later learned about Lee Shengyao's recent situation in the mainland, changed the treatment, and they wanted to ask Lee Shengyao to make a movie.
Smith said with some excitement: "Lee, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, think about Little Li, Depp, Tom Cruise, you can see them often."
"You're going to be the envy of everybody, you're going to be the focus of Vanity Fair, it's not just ordinary girls, those Hollywood actresses, Julie, Nicole Kidman, Scarlett Johansson, they're going to pay attention to you."
"Can you imagine that?"
Lee looked at Smith silently, he didn't like Julie's mouth, he liked Nicole Kidman and Scarlett Johansson.
But in this case, just fool the layman, and if you are not a big Hollywood director, how can a first-line actress take care of you.
"If I go to Disney, do I have editing rights to my movie?"
If he had the editing rights, with his advantage, he believed he could quickly forge his way.
"This ...... Just starting out naturally no, it takes a process. ”
Li Shengyao pouted, "Forget it, man, I won't go, my movie must be 100% in charge of me." ”
Smith was stunned, "Ninety percent of directors start like this." ”
"I know, I'm not going."
"Li, Brother Chen Kai is going to Hollywood, don't you really want to try it?"
Brother Kaizi did make a movie in Hollywood, and he came back after filming.
His character, where can he endure other people's fingers.
Of course, Li Shengyao couldn't bear it.
"He's back, not everyone can stand Hollywood, and if Disney really wants to find me, it's only if they adapt to me, not me to adapt to them."
When Smith heard this, he opened his mouth wide in surprise, thinking that this person was too crazy.
It's crazy to ask Hollywood to adapt to him.
