Chapter 1228

"Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books! Thank you!" Fan Wencheng said sincerely.

"Okay, is there anything else? If you have anything, finish it at once, and don't bother me again later." Lin Xiao said angrily.

"Hey, I won't disturb your good business. Goodbye." Fan Wencheng hung up the phone with a smile.

"Fan Wencheng? What did he ask you for? Didn't he go to Hollywood to make a movie?" Gu Xi came out of the bathroom and asked with some doubts.

"Isn't it a bit uncomfortable in Hollywood? I was bullied and came to learn from me." Lin Xiao explained with a smile.

On the other side, Fan Wencheng could finally sleep soundly.

Then the next day, the first thing he did was find an agent to sign.

Fan Wencheng is quite well-known, so it is true that there are no brokerage companies that want to sign him.

After having an agent, it really is a lot easier.

For example, about changing the script, such as changing the male lead to the female lead, Fan Wencheng directly talked to the agent, and then asked the agent to handle the matter.

As a result, Fan Wencheng's new agent soon approached producer Smith, expressed his employer's dissatisfaction, and then contacted the person in charge of Universal's production department.

This kind of thing was originally ignored by Universal, so naturally, the problem was quickly resolved.

Then there is the third-party guarantee, Carter, the person in charge sent by Atlantic Insurance.

When he saw Fan Wencheng, his eyes lit up, and he walked forward.

"Fan, I think..." Carter felt that this director was particularly easy to bully, so of course he pushed his limits, but today was a little different. He was about to say something, but before he finished, he was interrupted by Fan Wencheng.

"Nelson, you communicate with this Mr. Carter, and let me know the result." Fan Wencheng directly called an associate producer sent by Universal to help him, and let him handle it.

Nelson was taken aback for a moment, but then he said to Carter with a smile on his face: "Mr. Carter, please don't disturb the director, you can tell me if you have anything to say."

Carter immediately withered, and told you that there is an egg.

"Director Fan, I want to talk to you, but you can't do this." Carter was obviously not reconciled, talking to Fan Wencheng was much more useful than talking to Nelson.

"Mr. Carter, you have seriously affected my work. If you continue to be so entangled, I will complain to your company and ask your company to replace you." Fan Wencheng said with a serious expression.

It was Carter's turn to be dumbfounded.

How did this "easy to talk" Huaguo director become so tough in just one day?
It's casting time.

Fan Wencheng was very annoyed. The few candidates he had decided on were actually rejected by the producer Smith.

There's no way, who made him act too soft before, and as a result, everyone didn't take him seriously.

However, Fan Wencheng is not the kind of person who doesn't understand anything. With Lin Xiao, the behind-the-scenes strategist, who gave him the idea, next, when the most important thing is to choose the protagonist, Fan Wencheng didn't say a word.

After producer Smith, a manager of Universal, and the assistant director and others finalized the list, Fan Wencheng directly rejected all of them.

Things just stalled.

Yes, Fan Wencheng didn't communicate with any of them directly, you won't let me choose, won't you give me the respect I deserve, yes, you can do it, I f***ing don't want anyone you choose.

This is not over yet, and there is also the casting director, who didn't care about Fan Wencheng at all before. When casting the casting, he didn't ask Fan Wencheng at all, but made his own decision.

As a result, it is naturally conceivable that Fan Wencheng was so angry that he immediately went on strike.

Yes, he's on strike!
Then let the agent do the talking.

In the end, the casting director changed!
Producer change!
Yes, producer Smith was also replaced.

Because the reason why "Space Rescue" approached Fan Wencheng was because he had the experience of filming "Prison in the Sky", so Universal still attached great importance to it.

In fact, it was because Fan Wencheng himself was too humble before, but the result was that he was bullied by being kind.

Now that Fan Wencheng's attitude has become tougher, Universal will naturally take care of his emotions, and the next thing will go much smoother.The newly sent producer didn't point fingers at Fan Wencheng again this time.

And the casting director also knew what happened before, so he naturally wouldn't underestimate Fan Wencheng, after all, Fan Wencheng was in control of his position.

The filming of "Space Rescue" started as scheduled, and Fan Wencheng gradually began to adapt to the way of working in Hollywood. You can't be too polite to them, just follow the rules when you have something to do.

In fact, it's not that Hollywood doesn't pay attention to favors, but that Fan Wencheng is new here, so where is there any favors to speak of?

However, this matter still made Fan Wencheng want to leave. He suddenly felt that Hollywood was not as good as he imagined.

Another one is the movie "Space Rescue". Fan Wencheng is not as confident as before.

Because when filming "Space Rescue", Fan Wencheng also paid attention to the situation of the North American film market. During this period, several similar "rescue" films were released.

But the box office results were not very satisfactory.

Moreover, he suddenly felt that he was not as powerful as he thought.

The real one is Lin Xiao!

The first "Taken" and the later "Prison in the Sky" he filmed, and the previous "Dangerous Couple", these can be said to have an inseparable relationship with Lin Xiao.

And these movies are all big sellers!This shows what?
Also, Qin Gang's "The Hangover" and Yang Hao's "Speed" were also successful.

Is it the embodiment of their strength?There may be some, but Lin Xiao's unique vision is more important. He clearly understands what the audience wants to see.

If it is really the credit of these people, why have they still not been able to reach the threshold of foreign audiences after so many years?
Look at him, Fan Wencheng, the highest box office in North America for his previous movie was only a few hundred thousand!
As for Yang Hao, it was a bit better, but not far behind, and Qin Gang?To be honest, don't mention it.

But with Lin Xiao's help, they all achieved super sales in North America. What does this mean?It has been explained that all of this is due to Lin Xiao.

Also, "Super Body" is another satellite released by Lin Xiao, which can even affect the North American film market. This person is so powerful that it is unbelievable.

Therefore, Fan Wencheng was suddenly a little annoyed. If he didn't take Universal's movie and continued to cooperate with Lin Xiao, would the next movie still be able to kill the world?

It's very possible, so Fan Wencheng secretly made a decision in his heart. After the filming of this movie, he will leave Hollywood. This is still not his home field, and he obviously has not reached the point where he can go overseas.
