Chapter 1769 1771【The store bullies customers】
October, "Master Dragon" was officially shot.
At the same time, news came from Warner.
The script of "Longwei Boy" has passed the preliminary review and is considered feasible.
?However, whether the project can be approved requires further evaluation.
Even so, Zou Wenhuai was very excited and told Xiang Nan the news.
"Ning Wei, you are really talented. The company really did not misjudge the person." He happily said to Xiang Nan.
"Mr. Zou, it has only passed the preliminary review. Whether and when the project will be approved have not been determined yet." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Let''s not be too happy now. We will wait until the official approval."
Zou Wenhuai was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile, "Ning Wei, you can keep your composure. Yes, if young people are calm, they will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Xiang Nan laughed when he heard this.
The reason why he is determined is because he is confident about his future. Even if he doesn''t go to Hollywood to develop and become an international superstar, he still has a bright and bright future.
Therefore, whether he goes to Hollywood or not does not have much impact on him. His mentality can naturally be peaceful.
??But for Zou Wenhuai, whether he can go to Hollywood is related to huge interests of tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars, so it is naturally difficult for him to remain calm.
…
Some time later, while Xiang Nan was filming "Master Dragon", he also helped Zhu Mu film a new film - "Snake, Cat and Crane Mixed Palm". But it was just a supporting role, and the filming lasted less than five days.
He has helped Zhu Mu film three movies before, and the favor he owes has almost been repaid. Now the salary of 20,000 yuan is enough to help him shoot the movie for five days, which is considered worthy of him.
After all, when I signed the contract, it was for five films in three years, and it didn’t say that I would definitely play the leading role.
???If Xiang Nan''s "Snake" was not a hit, Zhu Mu would not let him play the leading role again.
?While filming "Snake, Cat and Crane", Xiang Nan was on the set and met Taiwanese actress Chan Niu.
??He didn''t have a deep impression of Chan Niu. He only remembered that she played Sima Sanniang in the drama version of "A Chinese Ghost Story". In my memory, she is already a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties.
?Now that I see her as a young woman, she is actually very beautiful, and as her name suggests, she is a sweet girl. He has a round figure and a sweet smile, which is very lovable.
Tanniu was very enthusiastic about him, and she took the initiative to ask for autographs and photos as soon as they met, "Mr. Ning, I am your fan. I have watched all your movies, and you are so beautiful."
"Thank you." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded, fulfilling her little wish.
"Mr. Ning, if you have time, can I ask you to dance?" Chan Niu asked with a smile.
Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, this is my hotel''s phone number. You can leave me a message. But I''m filming "Master Dragon" recently, so it''s hard to find time."
?It was true that he was chasing Miao Kexiu, but Miao Kexiu never said anything, which made him a little tired. He was going to give chase again, and if he still failed, he would stop chasing.
After all, there is no grass anywhere in the world. Great youth and great years cannot be wasted on one person.
“It’s okay, I can wait.” Tan Niu smiled.
Xiang Nan nodded after hearing this.
…
After filming "Snake, Cat and Crane Mixed Palm", Xiang Nan originally wanted to ask Miao Ke to embroider it and make it clear.
??But suddenly news came from Warner, requiring Xiang Nan to go over immediately to participate in the audition.
It turned out that after the script of "Long Wei Boy" was reviewed, the project was officially approved.
??Although the script was written by Xiang Nan and Golden Harvest invested in the film, the right to speak is still in the hands of Warner. They are the ones who decide whether to use Xiang Nan, so Xiang Nan still needs to go to Hollywood for an audition.
This made him speechless for a time. The script is his and the funds are his, but he still has to be picked on. It''s really a big deal. But the situation was stronger than the person. In order to go to Hollywood, he could only swallow his anger temporarily and went to Hollywood for a while.
Going to Hollywood with him was Cai Yongchang, Jiahe’s third-in-command.
?At that time, together with Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang, he quit Shaw Brothers and established his own business, and his position in Jiahe was considered deeply entrenched.
?The two took a flight, traveled all the way across the ocean, and arrived in Hollywood. Then they went to Warner headquarters to accept an interview.
“Ning Wei, don’t be nervous, it’ll be fine, just show your best.” Cai Yongchang also comforted Xiang Nandao on the way.
Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Cai, I understand."
Actually, he was not nervous at all.
It’s best if you can come to Hollywood for development, but it doesn’t matter if you can’t come. Anyway, he has more than one path to success.
…
When I arrived at Warner Headquarters, there was no interview immediately.
The two waited in the reception room of the headquarters for nearly four hours and drank almost two pots of coffee before someone informed them that the manager responsible for receiving them suddenly went on a business trip yesterday and asked them to go back to the hotel to wait for news until the manager came back. Say it again.
When Xiang Nan heard this, he wanted to slap the table and scold his mother.
The business trip was arranged yesterday, why didn’t you inform them in advance? If I had known earlier, they wouldn''t have flown here today.
??After all, the movie "The Young Master" is in a critical moment. If we stay in Xiangjiang for one more day, we can shoot several more scenes.
To put it bluntly, even if it was an urgent task yesterday, there was really no time to notify. Then when they come today, you can tell them that they don''t have to wait here.
Four hours, nothing better to do. Going back to sleep is better than working here.
In the final analysis, Warner didn’t take them, Xiangjiang filmmakers, seriously, so they dared to be so negligent. It’s really unreasonable!
“You bastard, you’re looking down on me!” Xiang Nan wanted to give Warner’s top management a big mouth.
"Don''t be angry, don''t be angry, it''s all routine, don''t be surprised." When Cai Yongchang saw it, he immediately comforted him, "Who told us to ask for help now? When you become as famous as Bruce Lee in the future, you will naturally It’s up to them to beg us.”
Xiang Nan nodded after hearing this.
??We know that in Hollywood, if the shop is too big, it will bully the customers, and if the customers are too big, it will bully the shop. Both sides are in a constant game, and both want to seek the best interests for themselves.
?For example, an unknown person like him is easily looked down upon by those movie giants.
??Box office superstars such as Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, Will Smith, Johnny Depp and other box office stars can rely on their strong box office appeal to be on an equal footing with film companies and bargain for prices.
One day, when he becomes famous, he will make the Warner boss kneel down and beg him.
…
Xiang Nan and Cai Yongchang were forced to stay in the hotel temporarily. They waited for seven days in a row, which made Xiang Nan almost tired to death.
You know, "Young Master" is still waiting for him in Xiangjiang, and he really doesn''t have time to work in Hollywood.
“How about I go back first?” He discussed with Cai Yongchang.
?He has been waiting here all the time, and there is no news. He really can''t bear it anymore. It''s not that he can''t stand loneliness, it''s that he can''t stand the feeling of being looked down upon.
"Don''t worry, you are leaving now. If he comes back tomorrow, wouldn''t you have to fly back again?" Cai Yongchang advised, "It''s better to wait patiently for a few more days. I don''t think it will be too long."
?At this moment, the phone rang, and they received a notice from Warner asking Xiang Nan to go to the Hilton Hotel to meet the producer tomorrow.
