When Wu Ershan saw Yue Guan sign the contract, he still looked a little dazed.
"That's it... done?"
Wu Ershan couldn't believe it.
Many film directors in the Dragon Kingdom want to go out, but most of them have failed.
Many people have even been deceived.
Such as small steel cannon.
He was so fooled that he scolded his mother directly.
But "Fengshen" offers a one-time buyout price, which is real money and cannot be deceived.
This figure... may be much lower than the total overseas copyright revenue of the first part of "Feng Shen" in the future, but it is already a new record for the current overseas revenue of domestic films.
Yue Guan patted Wu Ershan on the shoulder: "Director Wu, we will have a celebration banquet when we get back. Remember to attend."
"Mr. Yue, in fact, we have specially prepared a welcome reception for you. I hope you can appreciate it."
The speaker spoke English.
The person who translated for Yue Guan was Zhang Yin.
But Yue Guan actually speaks English.
But Zhang Yin insisted on translating for him. In Zhang Yin's words, the other party can't speak Mandarin, so you don't need to know English...
This reason is very strong... Yue Guan accepted it.
As for the reason why the other party held a welcome reception for him, Yue Guan could also guess it.
It's just that he wants to use himself to open up the domestic market, or he wants to invite himself to play a supporting role in a Hollywood movie, so that it will be easier to operate when he goes to the Dragon Kingdom to promote in the future.
Yue Guan was not very interested, but he also knew that this was normal business behavior, so he nodded: "I'll be there on time."
He can be said to be unknown in Hollywood. Not many people can come, and most of them must be industry insiders who know something about him.
The other party wanted to cooperate with him, and Yue Guan had no intention of turning him away.
If you can really make a mistake, it's still money.
Moreover, the other party paid such a high price to buy out the overseas copyright of the first part of "Feng Shen", Yue Guan had to give him some face.
The welcome reception was arranged in the evening.
Mo Xiangwan did not attend.
Zhang Yin and Wu Ershan went with him.
Yue Guan speaks English, so there is no problem in daily communication. In addition, there is Zhang Yin next to him, so he communicates smoothly with people at the cocktail party and reaches several cooperations.
Then, Yue Guan saw a very familiar person.
"Why did he come?" Yue Guan asked Zhang Yin.
Zhang Yin followed Yue Guan's line of sight and looked into the distance, and was a little surprised: "Chris Evans? Captain of the Chou Kingdom?"
"Don't call him Captain Ugly in front of him. I checked his information and found that he is actually very disgusted with superhero blockbusters."
Chris Evans, the actor who plays Captain Ugly in The Avengers, has become famous all over the world with his image of Captain Ugly.
This is an amazing actor.
Although the role that made him shine was a comic-book superhero character, Chris Evans himself is particularly disgusted with superhero movies.
On the contrary, he likes literary films, and he especially likes to direct literary films himself.
In the interview, Chris Evans also bluntly stated his dislike for superhero blockbusters.
Before filming "Captain Ugly", he once played the Human Torch in the superhero movie "Fantastic Four", and then he directly chose to run away at the European premiere of "Fantastic Four 2"...
Yes, ran away.
He later said in an interview: "The reason for these struggles is that I am always promoting shit. It is not an easy task to promote a movie like this and get people to watch it. You Know that you are a big liar, and others will know you are lying at a glance.”
The ugly version of Wang Chuanjun.
A typical example of someone who picks up the bowl to eat but puts it down to scold his mother. He comes from the same school.
Chris Evans also dislikes Captain Ugly, the role that made him famous all over the world. He believes that this kind of movie has no connotation at all. It will only make him wear tight clothes that reveal his flesh, and then use his figure , face and butt as selling points.
This was not the movie he wanted.
The movies he wants are just the ones he directed and starred in:
A niche literary film!
After seeing Chris Evans, Zhang Yin looked at Yue Guan and said hesitantly: "I remember, you seem to have some thoughts about him?"
Yue Guan smiled slightly: "It's true, so I checked some information about him. Yinyin, your cousin's acting skills are almost perfect, right?"
"That's it, but he seems to be quite talented, and making a superhero movie doesn't seem to require high acting skills." Zhang Yin said.
"Zhang Zijian is a pure newcomer. It is very risky for him to star in a commercial blockbuster with huge investment. Although I am optimistic, there are indeed risks. Therefore, we must reduce this risk."
Yue Guan set his sights on Chris Evans and chuckled: "He is the one who can help us reduce risks."
Zhang Yin: “…”
Yue Guan had talked with her before, and he wanted to bring in Chris Evans to play the villain in the first part of the "Yan Shuang Ying" series - that is, the ugly soldier who took the super serum together with Yan Shuang Ying.
Finally, Yan Shuangying flew into the Pacific Ocean.
Zhang Yin thought Yue Guan was joking at that time.
Only now did she realize that Yue Guan was serious.
"If he has any brains, he wouldn't accept this kind of movie, right?" Zhang Yin said speechlessly: "And didn't you say that he doesn't like superhero movies? He doesn't even like "Captain Ugly", not to mention that we are a porcelain version. "Captain Ugly"."
"Yinyin, have you heard of a word?"
"What word?"
"It's all about human effort."
Zhang Yin looked at Yue Guan with a speechless face: "You are not doing this by man, you are going against nature. Don't waste your efforts, Chris Evans is not a fool."
"How about we make a bet? I bet Chris Evans will say yes to me."
"impossible."
"Then do you want to bet?"
"What's the benefit if I win?" Zhang Yin asked.
Yue Guan released a big bait: "You win, we will get engaged after we go back."
Zhang Yin's eyes lit up.
She looked at Chris Evans and then at Yue Guan, her eyes becoming as tender as water.
"Are you proposing to me in disguise?"
Yue Guan: "..." What a pity, it doesn't count.
"I agreed." Zhang Yin said cheerfully.
She thought Yue Guan was proposing to her.
Of course she wouldn't refuse.
Of course, she didn't forget to ask Yue Guan what price he would have to pay if he lost.
"What will I do if I lose?"
"I prepared a graduation uniform from our university."
Zhang Yin blushed and rolled her eyes at Yue Guan: "If you really want to, even if I win,..."
She didn't finish her sentence.
But the meaning is obviously clear.
Yue Guan said sternly: "That won't work. I, Yue Guan, keep my word as a person. Only if I win will I take back my bet."
"Then you will definitely lose." Zhang Yin said confidently.
Yue Guan smiled slightly and took out the golden finger.
Then, he consumed 1 emperor's energy in exchange for an opportunity.
[Emperor’s Qi has been redeemed.]
[Opportunity has been generated.]
Looking at the confident Zhang Yin, Yue Guan smiled silently.
Logically speaking, Zhang Yin is indeed a sure winner in this round.
pity.
He's a jerk.
