America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM

Chapter 336 334. If you dare to say no, I will make you look good!

Regarding sexual orientation, this thing is not static, but fluid.

It is normal for oneself to suddenly change due to mental shock or tremendous pressure.

I believe some people will feel this way, that is, it is not annoying to watch the love between same-sex people. Of course, it is not the kind of movies that let you watch P station, but simple love stories or real events.

In relatively more open countries like Europe and the United States, this situation is even more common.

For example, two of the most famous examples in Hollywood are Ellen Page's gender reassignment and her eldest brother, Elliot Page.

This girl has been hailed as a genius since her debut, and her acting is full of aura.

I also dated a boyfriend, and my sexual orientation should still be normal at that time.

Later, she suddenly announced that she came out of the closet and officially became a lesbian. She then successfully transitioned and married her girlfriend.

There is also Kristen Stewart, who is famous for playing the role in "The Twilight Saga". She and the leading actor Robert Pattinson have openly had a relationship for at least 5 years.

Sexual orientation during this period is certainly normal.

But later he also announced that he came out as gay and got married to his girlfriend of more than two years.

Regarding her sudden change, the media and psychologists speculated that it was most likely due to her relationship with Robert Pattinson.

It is estimated that within five years, this relationship caused severe psychological trauma or sequelae to her, leading to a reversal of sexual orientation.

Putting Judy's current situation into perspective, Eric felt that she was a bit similar to Kristen Stewart.

"Judy, are you excited? This transformation kind of scares me."

"I don't know, I just don't know when it started, and I suddenly felt that you weren't so annoying anymore."

"Don't be kidding, this is not a trivial matter, and you still don't know about my affairs? There are six women living in my house."

Judy shook her head: "I don't care. I don't like ordinary men. At least you are in line with my vision in other aspects except for your playfulness."

"Didn't your family introduce you to a boyfriend? A big family, young talents, well matched, but still not up to your standards?" Eric was confused.

Judy thought for a moment: "How should I put it? If I had just graduated and found a job by myself, I would have earned ten to twenty thousand dollars a month."

"I would think yes, the men introduced by my family are very good."

"They all graduated from prestigious schools and have become company executives or embarked on official careers at a young age. They may inherit the family business in the future and have a bright future."

"But unfortunately the timing was wrong. At that time I only had feelings for women."

"But now, when I see them, I can only laugh a few words, and I no longer have the desire to communicate in depth."

"Last year I went home to a party, and all my peers, they got together and they were so proud that they had made a mere million dollars."

At this point she rolled her eyes: "Come on! What do you want me to say? Tell them that I'm worth over 100 million?"

"It's too superficial. The level of those guys can no longer keep up with my needs. Not having a common language is very painful and may last for a long time."

"What's more, apart from these, I don't want to look like a big star, at least I want to be healthy and handsome."

"Have you seen the samples of "Twilight"? Henry Cavill, who plays the male protagonist, must be 80% as good as him to pass."

"Tsk tsk."

After hearing Judy's request, Eric was a little speechless, thinking that it couldn't be said to be a fantasy, it was almost as whimsical.

Most Americans will not be able to earn a million dollars in their lifetime. For a normal middle-class family, it is quite good to have ten to twenty thousand dollars in their hands after working for a few years.

Appearance is more difficult than money. Although Henry Cavill has not yet developed a sexy figure, his face is not in vain.

He is 80% handsome, which is enough to suppress Ryan Reynolds.

What's more, this face was given to me by my parents and is natural. If it looks ugly, it is ugly.

As for plastic surgery?

Go and ask these big families if any men have undergone plastic surgery?

I'm rich and powerful, but you still think I'm ugly? Is it difficult for me to find someone younger and more beautiful? You are trampling on my dignity.

"Ahem. Are your demands too high? Wanting everything means asking for nothing."

"Let's think about it differently. You are very strong. It is actually better to find a weaker man. If two strong men are together, it is easy for problems to arise."

"There are so many examples of you getting into disputes over little things and then not giving in."

Judy grabbed his shoulders fiercely: "So it seems that you are the only one who best meets my requirements."

"You are stronger, with wisdom, handsomeness and wealth. Apart from you, I really can't think of anyone else of your age who can conquer me!"

"But I have girlfriends, and there are a lot of them. To tell you the truth, in addition to the six at home, there are several more outside."

"It doesn't matter. If there are too many, I can even help you deal with a few."

"What?"

"I can help you deal with them. I'm good at dealing with women, you know."

"Wait, but you're not?"

"I'm saying that I can accept men, but it doesn't mean that I reject women."

oh

Eric understood, and he nodded slowly: "But why does it feel like a transaction? We are like two businessmen discussing a piece of goods."

"Marriage is an emotional transaction, isn't it?"

"Let me ask you a question and answer it carefully."

"What?"

"Do you have feelings for me?"

Eric hesitated for a moment: "I have always regarded you as a brother, a good friend, someone with whom I can share my most intimate secrets."

"That's not the answer. I'm asking you if you feel it?"

"I don't know!" Eric shouted.

Before he finished speaking, Judy took the initiative to kiss him while he was talking.

After a moment, Judy felt something strange, and smiled half-heartedly: "It seems that the body is much more honest than the mouth."

As she said this, she took off her shirt, but was stopped by Eric.

"Wait, wait, now is not the time."

"You look down on me? Eric Cooper, in this situation, if you dare to say a word no, I will make you look good!"

As she spoke, she clenched her fists: "When I was in college, I could beat the four of you, and I can still do it now."

Eric hurriedly denied: "No, no, no, I admit that you are very hot Judy, but something will really happen tomorrow."

"Excuse!"

"Really, I need to see a doctor."

"you are sick?"

"It's not about getting sick, it's about recuperating the body. If you don't believe me, go with him. He is a very experienced doctor."

Judy crossed her arms and glanced at his face suspiciously: "Well, you must be lying to me."

……………………………………………………

On the second day, Eric went to the factory to take a look.

After the expansion, it can accommodate about 12,000 people, but the limit is only 15,000 people. No more floor space is allowed.

Expansion to coastal cities is the only way to go.

After being warned to pay attention to production safety and not to cause any accidents, he left the factory and came to MGM Oriental.

Come to the in-house cinema and directly participate in the screening of "The Meg".

The lights come back on as the shark is finally taken out by young Goldsteinson.

"Eric, it's almost 110 minutes, what do you think?"

Eric nodded slowly. The movie was indeed shot according to his script. Although there were some deletions in lines and other places, it was harmless.

If it is regarded as a commercial film, it is already qualified and qualified to be shown on the big screen to please the audience.

Of course, commercial films are commercial films, and there are actually many problems.

For example, Xu Jinglei, who played the heroine, did not interfere much in the casting at the time, but judging from the final film effect, it was much worse than Li Bingbing.

The two of them don't have the same temperament. No matter how you look at it, Xu Jinglei has a weak feeling, even though she tries very hard to show her strong side.

This should be the biggest failure of the movie. Fortunately, the young Guo Da is better, the action scenes are brilliant, and the underwater battles are fierce.

It is foreseeable that after it is released, it will be labeled as a bad film with illogical logic, but again, this is just a commercial film.

"Well, it's pretty good. If the special effects are made more sophisticated, I think it can be on the big screen."

Lao Han immediately smiled: "Your words have given me a reassurance. If there is anything else that needs to be improved, please give me your opinion."

Eric thought to himself, now I ask you to replace Xu Jinglei with the reshoot. Is this realistic?

He found a few innocuous details to talk about, but he said it casually, and others couldn't just listen to it casually, so he quickly took out a small notebook and wrote it down.

Just kidding, Eric Cooper, a famous international director, is on the verge of reaching 2 billion US dollars at the box office. He is a man of gold.

"Huang Bo's performance is very good. He also has a sense of humor. Although his role is not many, it is a highlight."

"I remember he was recommended here by you."

"Yes, I went to school to promote "Transformers" that time. I felt that he was very unique and would add some color to the movie."

"A discerning eye knows people. Although this actor is not good-looking, he is very hard-working. He can be used as a special type of actor. He is a petty thief, an unscrupulous vendor, and a gangster. If you stop there, you will see how he looks like him."

Eric laughed, but if Huang Bo was really trained in this area, his future might be ruined.

"Looking broadly, his temperament is not so much like a gangster villain, but more like a small person, an ordinary person we see anytime and anywhere on the road."

"If there is such a role, why not let Huang Bo give it a try. I think he can complete it very well."

"Let's not talk about him, Lao Chen. You have also seen the film. If there is anything that needs surgery, please bring it up quickly and we will change it quickly." Lao Han looked at Chen Ou.

The latter looked calm: "There is no need to edit this film, there are no sensitive parts, just start it."

"That's what you said."

"I'll make the decision, be confident!"

After the film review meeting, the director, co-screenwriter and others hurriedly made modifications as required, and the three of them returned to the office to drink tea.

Chen Ou looked at Eric and said, "I'm planning to set up a high-level forum. Are you interested in giving me a favor?"

"Forum? Are you talking about the film gap again? That's not necessary. We're still talking about technology, censorship, and cost. It's not very interesting."

"Not exactly, the theme is how domestic films can compete for Oscars."

"Ever since Ang Lee won the Oscar for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in 2001, the mainland has always wanted to win an award of equal weight."

"In 2002, Zhang Yimou made "Hero", but unfortunately it only received one nomination for Best Foreign Language Film."

"Last year we filmed House of Flying Daggers, and there were no nominations for Best Foreign Language, and there was only one nomination for Best Cinematography."

"When He Ping made "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" in 2003, he couldn't even get a single nomination."

"This group of directors in mainland China are very confused. They don't know how to shoot in order to win Oscar favor. How about you guide them."

"I'll call Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Feng Xiaogang to have a chat."

Eric sighed, he was too lazy to take on the unplanned work.

And does this thing work just by talking?

If I remember correctly, this year should be the day when the epic bad movie "The Promise" was born, and next year will be when the big bad movie "The Banquet" that also follows the trend will debut.

These great mainland directors seem to have fallen into a weird thinking circle. They must be in costume and tell a story that is so messed up that others cannot understand it.

The group of people were obsessed with their obsession with Oscar, and Li An was so jealous that he almost went crazy with jealousy.

They all wanted to recreate "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", but they all acted too hastily, only imitating its form and abandoning its spirit.

There is no way to save him, he will only wake up if he falls down.

It was obvious that Eric didn't want to participate, so Old Han advised: "It won't take too long, it will be over in more than an hour."

"In this way, I will take you to that place soon. It will start at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and end at 10 o'clock. It will not delay your journey south."

Both of them said so, and it was hard to argue with them, so Eric reluctantly agreed.

"Okay, Lao Chen, hurry up and get ready, and the two of us will take care of something."

"Well, see you tomorrow."

After leaving MGM Oriental, I picked up Judy who was shopping for clothes in Wangfujing, and the car drove all the way to Beicheng.

After twists and turns, when you get off the bus, you will see a long alley in front of you.

Even though Eric had stayed in Yanjing for a long time, he had no idea where he had arrived.

Lao Han led the way and finally came to a courtyard. In front of him was an old man with a white beard wearing reading glasses.

He looks to be at least 70 or 80 years old, but he is very energetic, which is quite in line with the imagination of an old Chinese doctor.

Old Han and the other party should be acquaintances, so he asked Eric to sit down and take his pulse.

After a moment, he shook his head slightly: "Young man, you are in good health, except for one organ, which is the kidney."

As he spoke, he suddenly pressed hard on Eric's index finger.

Eric suddenly felt like he was being shocked by an electric shock, and couldn't help shouting, which startled Judy next to him.

"The deficit is huge. Fortunately, you are young, exercise regularly, and drink the medicinal wine I prepared."

After laughing a few times, Eric hurriedly asked: "Doctor, what should I do? To be honest, I have several wives."

The old Chinese medicine doctor wasn't surprised either. Anyone who could find him here would be someone who indulged in debauchery. He had seen a lot of wives. Anyway, it was not illegal to not obtain a license.

He took out a box of pills and wrote down a prescription.

"Take this first. After eating, go to Chinatown to get medicine according to the prescription. You will drink it for three days and then for a month."

"I will also give you a CD containing a set of movements. Go back and follow along and practice once in the morning and evening."

"But let me tell you, these are all foreign objects after all, and the key is to be in moderation, otherwise the ancient emperors would have died of exhaustion, let alone you!"

Eric nodded repeatedly: "I thought he would be given a book, like a kung fu secret book."

The old Chinese medicine doctor rolled his eyes at him: "What age are you in? Do you know how to keep pace with the times?"

"Well"

Behind him, Judy patted Eric on the shoulder, and he could only ask scornfully: "Will it affect the couple's life while taking the medicine?"
