"Ladies and gentlemen, it is a great honor to be here at this welcome dinner, and especially, on behalf of the young directors present, I would like to welcome you all here."

"As you can see, this international young directors exchange conference will be sponsored by myself, Weinstein Pictures, and will select one or two excellent directors to provide them with an investment of $2 million to shoot a Hollywood film and release it."

"Ladies and gentlemen, I hope we have a happy cooperation in the future, and today, I wish you all a great time!"

Harvey's speech made the atmosphere of the scene suddenly high, and exclamations came one after another.

$2 million, not a fraction.

Don't compare with those big productions that often invest tens of millions of dollars, what level of characters are those people, what level of directors and producers.

To have such resources and opportunities is a small group of people standing at the top of the Hollywood pyramid.

In these years, many independent films can be made for $1 million, and some money can be saved for several independent film festivals to promote.

And these people present, whether they are young directors or students, except for those like Sun Yi, there is really no one who does not take the investment of $2 million in his eyes.

So don't say that these directors are secretly frightened, those female students are all shining in their eyes, and they feel that they have come to the right place tonight, if they can be on the list, not to mention that they will definitely be popular, but there will definitely be a rare opportunity.

The premise is that you don't meet a scumbag.

Although there are similar ruthless things on the Hollywood side, there are still relatively few of them.

The reason why the unspoken rule is called the unspoken rule is that except for a hidden word that represents the hidden, under the potential water surface. There is also the word rule, which shows that this is a conventional transaction.

It is generally not easily destroyed.

On stage, after Harvey gave a speech, he walked down with a smile and a wine glass, such an occasion is really nothing in the eyes of a veteran like him.

first chatted with several young directors in the United States, simply patted the shoulder, and gave two greetings and care from time to time, which flattered several young American directors.

Several female students next to him were also amused by Harvey's few intimate jokes, and began to stick to him intentionally or unintentionally.

The other girls present were all full of envy and jealousy.

And everyone is looking forward to it.

Everyone knows that Mr. Harvey, as the person with the highest status in the audience, must have come down and greeted some people in order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord.

So the others, regardless of what they were doing, were always keeping an eye on Mr. Harvey's movements, and they were all looking for an opportunity to come up and say hello.

Harvey left with his glass.

Just when everyone thought that he would go to South Korean director Bong Joon-ho, or Turkish director Fatih. Ah Jin was here, but he walked straight to the corner of the venue.

That. That young Asian!

Who is he?

"What a beautiful night, if I'm not mistaken, you must be Yisun from Huaxia Oh, I'm sorry, Director Sun Yi, am I right?"

Harvey walked over and took the initiative to say hello to Sun Yi, then shook his head in annoyance while stretching out his hand to Sun Yi and explained, "I'm sorry, I really don't know enough about your Chinese names."

"You're right, Mr. Harvey."

Sun Yi stood up with a smile, and also stretched out his hand and shook Harvey very politely.

On the American side, shaking hands is also a more formal etiquette, and it is obvious that in Harvey's eyes, Sun Yi is qualified to shake hands with him.

In the eyes of others, it was like discovering a new continent.

"Oh, fxxk, Jesse, this Asian is obviously not ordinary, Mr. Harvey has to take the initiative to shake his hand, it's all strange, I knew I should have taken the initiative to go over first, oh God, what !! I lost"

"Who the hell is he?"

Everyone present was shocked one by one, and they were all speculating about where Sun Yi, a young and overly Asian, was sacred, and he could let Mr. Harvey take the initiative to say hello.

"Director Sun Yi, oh, I'm sorry, it's really tongue-twisting, I'll call you Sun, okay?"

"Of course, Mr. Harvey."

"That's great, Sun, welcome to Hollywood, your previous achievements in China made me feel that no one has ever directed two films independently at your age, and what is even more valuable is that they both grossed more than $20 million. And at a cost of less than $2 million, I can't figure out, how do you do that? ”

Sun Yi pondered for a while, and finally chose to pretend to be a wave.

I saw him smile and shrug his shoulders, frown slightly, spread his hands helplessly, and said to Harvey:

"Well, Mr. Harvey, you know, that's not the charm of movies."

Harvey listened for a moment, then immediately cracked his mouth and laughed.

"Oh ha, yes, that's right, that's the charm of the movie." As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Sun Yi's shoulder to show his closeness.

"Sun, you're such an interesting person, I like you a lot."

"Yes, Mr. Harvey, but I'm sorry, I prefer beautiful women to you."

"Huh? Oh hahaha, yes, yes, beautiful women are always fascinating. ”

Harvey and Sun Yi stood in the corner of the venue, and now, this corner has directly become the core of the whole party, and the eyes of other people are focused here.

Even Matt looked at the two of them cautiously, thinking, what kind of person is Mr. Sun, how can he talk and laugh so much with Mr. Harvey?

The big guy who was sitting with him was even worse, and his white eyes were about to pop out.

said that they would be life and death comrades in the third world together, how can you say that rebellion is rebellion.

"Sun, I don't know if you're interested in making a Hollywood-like movie?"

"I'm very interested, but at present, the reality is not mature, the script is not, and the specific distribution and release rules are not very clear."

Hearing Sun Yi say this, the smile on Harvey's face became even better.

Everything is arranging the development of his plans.

No one can say no to Hollywood.

"It's okay, Sun, you don't have to think too much about this, I can do everything for you, as long as there is a little trust between friends."

"Are we friends, Mr. Harvey?"

"Of course, Sun, we're friends."

Harvey raised his hand and snapped his fingers to the side, and a blonde with a hot figure came with a smile on her face, walked up to Sun Yi, and threw a charming look at him.

"My dear Sun, this is my secretary, Scarlett, if you think about it, you can call me directly, or. Call Scarlett alone, too. ”

"Good evening, Director Sun." Scarlett greeted Sun Yi and handed Harvey's business card.

Sun Yi raised his hand to take it, but he didn't expect that at the moment of contact, Scarlett actually scratched his palm with her fingertips provocatively, and at the same time licked her lips with her tongue very sexily.

it!

Sun Yi almost shivered.

Nima's, after all, is here.

The time has finally come to test the cadres.

Seeing Sun Yi take the business card, Harvey was very happy, and even stepped forward to wrap his arms around Sun Yi's shoulder, then raised his wine glass and said to him:

"So, Sun, let's toast and look forward to our future cooperation."

“cheers”“cheers”

"Alright, I'm an old man, I won't bother you, I hope you can have a good evening and feel the enthusiasm of the American girls."

"Best of luck too, Mr. Harvey."

Harvey left Sun Yi's side, but the eyes of everyone in the audience were still paying attention to Sun Yi.

Korean director Bong Joon-ho is envious, jealous and hateful.

You must know that the investment quota of 2 million US dollars mentioned before is extremely limited, only one or two, and looking at Mr. Harvey's enthusiastic attitude towards Sun Yi today, Sun Yi is a sure thing.

He really couldn't figure it out, Huaxia is not a popular art thing, how can there be a director in that place that Mr. Harvey values.

Fatih. Ah Jin is relatively better, as an art director, his mentality is quite stable, but his psychology is also full of pity, in Hollywood, business has always been king.

I thought that I could occupy a place with the Berlin Golden Bear Award, but suddenly a Sun Yi appeared out of nowhere, which greatly reduced his chances.

The directors generally cast envious glances at Sun Yi, but the girls present were different, staring at Sun Yi with beautiful eyes, which was hot, as if they were going to eat people.

At this time, dance music sounded at the banquet, and it was time to dance.

Except for the girls who had entered the various director's circles before, it was really difficult to walk away directly, and the rest of them all moved to Sun Yi unconsciously.

"Hey, can you dance with me?"

"Oh, sorry, I can't dance."

This is still relatively tactful, and there are unrestrained ones.

"Hello, can I be your female companion?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

There are also those who directly stuff Sun Yi's phone number, and there are even those who directly stuff the room card.

Sun Yi's forehead was slightly sweaty, and the whole person was overwhelmed.

He could now understand Elder Tang's feelings in the daughter country, the girls were too enthusiastic.

After a while, seeing that Sun Yi rejected all the girls, the others finally gave up and stopped coming.

As for whether anyone secretly scolded Sun Yi in his heart, he didn't act, he wasn't a man, then I don't know, anyway, the rejected girl's face was not very good-looking.

Sun Yi just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect a strong influx of perfume smell to hit again.

It's Scarlett.

Scarlett sat directly beside Sun Yi, shaking the wine glass in her hand and asking:

"Director Sun, I really don't need a good dance partner, my skills are very good!"

As he spoke, he made a small movement under the table, directly kicked off his shoes, and rubbed them on Sun Yi's calves.

Sun Yi hurriedly turned around and refused:

"I'm sorry, Miss Scarlett, I really can't dance."

"It's not a gentleman's job to turn down a lady's invitation."

"I'm really sorry, I'm a little tired."

"Okay then, Director Sun has a good rest, and you can call me when you have time."

Seeing that Sun Yi didn't eat oil and salt, Scarlett could only smile slightly awkwardly, and then gave up and left.

Sun Yi finally had peace for a while.

Pick up the cold beer on the table and take a big sip.

"Whew"

Damn, this sugar-coated cannonball of capitalism is really fierce, thanks to the fact that he was well-informed in his previous life and cultivated a Dao heart, otherwise he really couldn't bear it.

His body had just felt a hint of coolness, when suddenly another voice sounded from behind him.

"Handsome guy, are you alone?"

Well?!!!
