The middle-aged man, who identified himself as Chan, is a Hong Konger, of medium height, cream-white pants, a brightly colored polo shirt, wears a progressive toad glasses, and is bald in the Mediterranean, and currently lives in Los Angeles.

In this era, there are eight middle-aged and elderly people from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Hollywood is in Los Angeles, or is this person the producer of "Titanic"?

It doesn't look like it, if someone is sent over there, Melulan Dora will definitely notify Su Changqing in advance to reserve a time to meet.

Mr. Chen said that he was just here to pass the word, and asked to talk to Su Changqing alone: "I will leave after I say a few words, and I will not delay you too much." ”

What kind of trick is this, making it look like an agent joint.

Mr. Chen was indeed concise: "I am a friend of Mr. David Landau, and I have been entrusted to look for you in the mainland this time, just to remind you: when you meet again, you must pretend that you don't know each other and have never seen each other. ”

Su Changqing had a very accurate hunch, and it was really David Landau, the so-called China expert, who came to negotiate the contract, after all, he was also one of the producers of "Titanic".

He knowingly asked, "Why don't you pretend you don't know?"

Mr. Chen is not very good at Chinese, but his words are very clear: "Mr. Landau said that he is about to come to China to discuss relevant matters, some things that happened before are too coincidental, it is very easy to cause misunderstanding, if you are not careful, it will cause irreparable damage to both of you, please Mr. Su must remember this, he said you will understand what you mean." ”

It seems that David Landau still remembers seeing this Chinese director, and was dumbfounded after the copyright issue came out: "WTK?!"

There are only a few people who know the plot, and Su Changqing published "I Really Don't Want to Ride Titanic" less than a month after meeting him, saying that it was either a letter that he leaked, or it was useless to kneel on the ground and swear by God.

Cameron had the idea of filming "Titanic" in 92, spent two years writing the script, and then carried out copyright registration, if the plot is leaked after that, it is easy to pursue legal responsibility, the problem is that Su Changqing's publication was in November 94, nearly two months earlier than the copyright registration.

It's too weird at this point in time, playing with Hollywood acting?

There are only a handful of people who know the plot, and David Landau has dealt with the Chinese, and if it were not for the character accumulated over the years as a guarantee, and the fact that it would not be beneficial to him to do so, he would be the first to be suspected.

Everyone did not understand the early publication of this matter, because no matter what aspect of the investigation is unreasonable, the disclosure is a blow to the interests of all insiders, and the Chinese who wrote it basically can't fight with Hollywood, which is absolutely impossible.

If the copyright dispute takes place in the United States, then a thorough investigation will eventually reveal the truth, but unfortunately the relevant parties are in Beijing, and if they do not want to make a big deal about the problem, they can only contact the cultural officials of the embassy to find out.

David Landau knows very well that this is a big problem, once the meeting with Su Changqing is known, it is meaningless to emphasize that he has no motive, many fuck things in the world can't tell the motive, and the friendship with Cameron is likely to end because of this, and he has committed a big taboo in the industry, and he will not be mixed up in Hollywood in the future.

It can only be said that fate is unfair, and the achievements and efforts of a lifetime are suddenly hung on an inexplicable article.

What's even worse is that tens of millions of dollars have been invested in the early stage of "Titanic", if this project fails, if the Hollywood giants turn their faces, then huge compensation may also be waiting for the back.

Before the copyright issue, the producer and Su Changqing were in a stalemate, and David Landau was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, afraid that something would go wrong in the middle and put him in, and he was like a year.

Now Su Changqing has agreed to give up, and the negotiation also falls on him, but after all, he is not a person who comes to negotiate, and the next things must be handled well, and there can be no mistakes in the details, so he would rather set up an offensive and defensive alliance with the other party at any cost, and get through this difficulty first.

He believed that Su Changqing could understand the subtext of Mr. Chen's words, everyone was a businessman, and he would not give up his benefits and deliberately embarrass him.

David Landau never understood how Su Changqing understood the plot, and now he doesn't care too much, he can't find out after checking it for more than a month, he doesn't have the ability to get it out, anyway, this pot is definitely not back.

Su Changqing promised Mr. Chen that he would do what David Landau said: "It is indeed the first time we have met and dealt with each other, tell him to rest assured." ”

I have to admire David Landau's caution, and when he called to say hello, he specially invited someone to pass the word, which seemed to be really scared.

However, it is not easy to make a transatlantic phone call now, and it is difficult to confirm the identity of the other party due to the language barrier, and if something goes wrong, it is impossible to regret it, God knows if Cameron has let the Investigation Bureau intervene, don't be arrested.

However, in this way, Mr. Landau's situation is even more embarrassing, which is equivalent to going farther and farther on the road that is inexplicable, and he also sent a big handle to Su Changqing's hand.

However, he had no choice, compared to his Hollywood colleagues, he thought that Su Changqing was easier to handle, it was nothing more than a matter of giving more benefits and gagging.

In fact, the producer also thinks so, investigating how the story was leaked and how it was concocted, which may cause an uproar and scare away investors and lose more.

With hundreds of millions of investments, Hollywood hopes that this film will make history, and this business can't take unnecessary risks, so it's quietly pressed down.

Su Changqing didn't dare to be too optimistic, but he had to be very careful when it came to compromising with Lao Mei, and they were no worse than others in the matter of settling accounts after the autumn.

Every next step must be carefully planned, not only to achieve the goal, but also not to stab the tiger's buttocks, otherwise "Titanic" will be released all over the world in 98, and it will be liquidated in turn.

Lao Mei has done a lot of work to cross the river and tear down the bridge.

Two days later, Melulan Dora informed Su Changqing: "Representatives of the Hollywood producers will arrive on May 3, and the two sides will be arranged to meet as soon as possible." ”

"The good news is that it's good for both sides to end this sooner rather than later. ”

Melulan Dora added: "Given that the fewer people know the inside story of this deal, the better, and the number of people involved in the talks on both sides is limited to two people, with no interpreters to be brought. ”

Su Changqing was a little surprised: "My English can't cope with professional talks, how can I do without a translator?"

Melulan Dora waited for him to ask, "In order to facilitate communication, I will be in charge of translating at that time." ”

This slapped his face too quickly, and Su Changqing snorted and laughed: "Didn't you say that your officials don't get involved in business?"

"Yes, we don't intervene in the negotiations," Melulan Dora said as a matter of course: "I am only your translator. ”

Of course, Su Changqing didn't want her to be present: "It's just a small business, I said you can worry about it?"

Although "Titanic" is a big investment, it is only in the film industry, not to mention that it is only a copyright dispute at present, and there are tens of billions of dollars in transactions between China and the United States, and the embassy has not been so involved.

Melulan Dora's behavior is abnormal, a bit of a fuss, obviously there are other considerations, and it is difficult to figure out for a while.

She is also handing out reassuring pills: "Mr. Su, please rest assured, we have very sound laws and regulations in this regard......"

Su Changqing didn't have the patience to listen to her singing in a high tone: "In this way, other husbands and wives are turning clouds and rain in bed, and you don't stand on the side and watch it's not intervening, right?"

Melulan Doraa paused, "I don't understand what you're talking about. ”
