Entertainment Guru Rebirth
Chapter 1731: Star studio status
When I returned to the villa, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
After eating something casually and taking a hot bath, Xiao Yunhai was about to go to bed when the news that his mobile phone rang.
When I opened it, it was Zhao Wanqing's call.
"My wife, I am going to sleep. What's the matter?" Xiao Yunhai said.
Zhao Wanqing asked nonchalantly, "Who are you sleeping with?"
Xiao Yunhai said irritably, "Satisfied with sleeping in bed?"
Zhao Wanqing couldn't help but smile and said, "That's the best. Let me ask you something, "Zhu Xian" will be released in Europe and America soon. Do you plan to let the film's main creators go to the platform during the premiere?"
Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "I asked Raul to invite many people to the premiere. Is it just necessary for the crew to come?"
Zhao Wanqing said angrily: "Of course. My husband, agents like Binglu and Xuewei all tactfully suggested to the company that they wanted to go to Europe and the United States to participate in the premiere. The two of us don't care, but they are A very good opportunity to become famous."
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said, "I really didn't think about this level. Well, you can ask the creators of "Zhu Xian", who is willing to come? Let them arrive before May 2nd.
Zhao Wanqing promised and said, "If I want to go, would you welcome it? Wouldn't it interfere with you?"
Xiao Yunhai laughed loudly and said, "No. You are here, I have something to do at night."
Zhao Wanqing still didn't understand what Xiao Yunhai meant, and said with a smile: "You big rascal. Don't bother you, take a rest."
The next day, Xiao Yunhai drove to the company headquarters.
Just getting out of the car, David Harnett and his agent came out of the car.
"Hey, David, what are you up to?" Xiao Yunhai waved to the two of them.
David then saw Xiao Yunhai and quickly walked up to him and said, "Mr. Xiao, it's been a long time."
The two gave a hug and talked as they walked.
Xiao Yunhai looked at the thick book in his hand and said, "Is this a script?"
David nodded and said, "That's right. My studio received a good TV script two days ago, and I plan to buy it. Today, I will show it to the editorial department. If the company can invest, it will be more important. All right."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Didn't you always make movies? When did you invest in TV dramas?"
David said: "I find that the TV drama market seems to be better than movies. Although the cycle is a lot longer, the victory is safe. Even if you lose money, you won't lose too much. Once you make money, sometimes you make more than movies. ."
Xiao Yunhai said: "That's right. The original "Prison Break" is indeed better than most movies. Except for "2012", Marvel really has nothing to do with it. However, David, I listen to you. Tone, there seems to be something wrong with your studio?"
David smiled bitterly: "I'm almost bankrupt. Mr. Xiao, do you think I'm not suitable for this?"
It turned out that David shot three small and medium cost movies in one go in the second half of last year. After the release this year, the box office was pretty average. One even received only $2.1 million and became a joke in Hollywood.
This annoyed David very much.
Since the establishment of the studio, David has lost 300 million US dollars and even sold his villa.
Xiao Yunhai said: "Failure is the mother of success. The lessons of 300 million are relatively few. As for the suitability, I don't know."
David said: "If you can be like you, you can succeed in everything."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Aside from shooting movies and TV series, what have you seen me doing?"
When David thought about it, it really was.
He almost never asks about Xiao Yunhai's company, at most he visits it every once in a while. All the work is done by the heads of various departments.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "The most difficult thing for people is to see themselves clearly and to position themselves. And I can see this clearly. I am not a business material, and I am not interested in managing a company, so I put the right people in the right ones. In terms of position, I enjoy it myself. Isn't that great?"
After hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, David thoughtfully said: "As for the studio, I dare not say what I am best at acting."
Xiao Yunhai patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't change your goals lightly. If you really can't achieve success, then give up as soon as possible. There is a saying in China, that there is something to do with home."
In Xiao Yunhai's eyes, although this David Harnett has superb acting skills, his vision is very general, otherwise he would not have cast so many bad films.
Walking into his office, Xiao Yunhai found that it was spotlessly clean, and it was obvious that someone was cleaning it every day.
"Bang, bang, bang." Not long after Xiao Yunhai sat down, he knocked on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened, and Raul came in.
"Mr. Xiao, let me report to you about my work."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. Let me ask you one thing, whether our company's celebrity studios have suffered a lot. I just met David, and his situation doesn't seem to be very good?"
Raul nodded and said, "Except for directors David and Bickwin, no one has opened a studio anymore. This is also the case with other companies. The main reason is that their investment vision is too poor, and the big investments are Sole proprietorship by a big company and not looking for them at all has caused the star studio to lose a lot. The worst one is the big director Ivan, who thought he had a good vision, but didn't want all three movies to lose a lot, and lost a full 800 million US dollars. . Now I'm making a movie to pay off my debt."
Xiao Yunhai said: "So, the studios of the big stars in Hollywood have closed?"
Raul smiled and said: "More than 90% are closed. Only a few have made money, but the investment is also increasing.
Be more cautious. "
Xiao Yunhai said: "Hehe, it seems that everyone does not have the potential to be a boss. Okay, let's talk about it. I want to hear about the development of Marvel Comics."
Raul handed a form to Xiao Yunhai, and then began to talk endlessly.
It took a full half an hour before the report was over.
Xiao Yunhai listened very seriously, and said, "Raul, you have done a good job, and I am very satisfied. Okay, you can go to work and have lunch together at noon."
Raul nodded, and was about to go out, when suddenly thinking of something, his steps stopped again.
Xiao Yunhai asked suspiciously, "Anything else?"
Raul said: "Mr. Xiao, there has been an incident secretly circulating in Hollywood recently that you are the mastermind of the Jason Steer bombing."
When Xiao Yunhai heard this, he was immediately delighted, and said: "Is this something Paramount did? It's ridiculous~lightnovelpub.net~ Raul looked solemn and said: "Mr. Xiao, you must not fail. It takes it seriously. Many third-rate newspapers have published it, but they didn't say your name, but the entire United States knows who you are referring to. "
Xiao Yunhai narrowed his eyes and said, "It's impossible for me to reconcile with the Bessie family. It is understandable for Paramount to engage in such a thing for the new master. This kind of small means can't hurt me, but you just stare at me. Who dares to say that I am the murderer, let the lawyer sue them bankrupt for libel."
Raul nodded and said, "Okay."
When Raul came out of the office, Xiao Yunhai turned on the computer and read some recent entertainment information.
Sure enough, in some inconspicuous places, there were a lot of speculations about the Jason Stall bombing, and the target was directed at Xiao Yunhai.
Fortunately, in the comment area, there were people who supported him everywhere, which made Xiao Yunhai feel a lot more comfortable.
However, the Jason Stahl bombing is indeed confusing, and until now, no one has been able to find out who the murderer was.
