British 1986
Chapter 108 Taken advantage of?
Looking at the picture of the actor, Allen felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember his name for the moment.
Continuing to look down at the information - Hugh Grant.
With his pair of extremely melancholy eyes, he earned the title of the male god of literary and artistic films.
According to information, a film he released this year called "Maurice" is expected to help him win the Best Actor at the Venice Film Festival.
Allen hasn't seen this movie called "Morris" yet.
Pointing to the information, he asked Patrice: "What's the plot of this movie?"
When Patrice saw Allen asking about this, his expression was a little strange. He hesitated for a long time and then whispered: "Master. This film is a literary film, mainly about the feelings between aristocratic young masters..."
The relationship between aristocratic young masters.
Allen was stunned.
Damn it
Appeared! My great British treasure-level traditional film and television themes!
As soon as he heard about this kind of subject matter, Allen was disgusted and disgusted. He was either against it or simply didn't like it.
After listening to Patrice's introduction, and then looking at Hugh Grant, Allen always felt that this guy's eyes were not melancholy, but like he was in trouble.
"Can he act out that feeling?"
Allen is now a little doubtful as to whether someone who shoots a film like that can perform a normal emotional scene.
"Don't worry, young master. He has taken my lessons before and has been in the industry for a few years. He has no problem with his acting skills."
"No, no, no, like this."
When Allen makes films, he pays more attention to the feeling, or the artistic conception, just like Meryl's temperament of being upright on the outside but coquettish on the inside. He doesn't want to make the husband feel like an incompetent person.
When the husband becomes incompetent, it becomes inevitable for the wife to cheat, which makes the excitement less exciting.
After pondering for a while, Allen said: "Let's arrange for people to take these two leading actors to Gambia! Let them observe more about life, um. By the way, let the male and female leads get familiar with each other first, and let them We pretend to be a couple, and when we go over this time, we invite them to travel in the name of the crew, and all the expenses will be counted as the crew’s expense!”
Allen thought of a way to feel good about himself, letting actors experience life!
The male protagonist goes to observe the black ducks, and the female protagonist goes to observe the rich women who buy sex. It just so happens that these two groups are present in his "Economic Development Zone" in The Gambia!
During this process, the male and female protagonists can also get familiar with each other, which is perfect!
"Okay." Now that Allen has spoken, Patrice doesn't refuse. This young master of his own is more casual when filming, and his playfulness is more meaningful. It seems that the actor selected this time is not so satisfactory to him. Thinking of it, Here, Patrice rolled his eyes.
He is already over fifty years old and is no longer young. With the Count, his status is far inferior to that of Butler Hut. Even compared with Syphis, he is not qualified, but
In this situation, you can't just do your job well, right?
How many years and months will it take to get a title under the young master?
We can't just talk about work, Patrice decided to start from other aspects to show his value!
Thinking of this, he glanced at Allen, who was still staring at the information, and Patrice said softly: "Master, I went to the United States this time and encountered something interesting in Hollywood. I wonder if you are interested."
"Oh? From Hollywood? Tell me."
Allen thought it was about some celebrity's scandal, and he was instantly interested. To say it was a scandal, it had to be an American thing!
"When I went to Hollywood this time, I happened to hear from a friend that a Chinese from the Islands went to Hollywood to inquire about information. It was said that they wanted to acquire a film and television company and enter the film and television industry. Hahaha, the people from this Islands were like headless flies, hitting walls everywhere. There’s nowhere to spend the money.”
Seeing that Patrice had aroused Allen's interest, he began to whisper about the interesting things he encountered during his trip to Hollywood.
But this matter is not some insider scandal as Allen imagined, but about the enemy of an archipelago country.
It turns out that this time Patrice went to the United States to choose actors and met an old friend in Paris. When the two were chatting, the other party talked about the people from this archipelago who had recently appeared in Hollywood. They are a group of people who are very popular but have no connections. , and the inquiring about information was very unprofessional. Many Hollywood producers or film and television companies regarded them as liars, so...
The people from this archipelago are still being treated as clowns.
When he heard that he was from the island country, Allen's interest disappeared for the most part. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the game console that was forcibly taken from William on the desk.
In recent times, people in island countries are very excited!
Picking up the game console that he got by accident, Allen frowned and asked, "Do you know which island country company wants to acquire a film and television company?"
"Sony! It's the one that makes Walkmans."
It's actually Sony? !
Allen glanced at Patrice. This old guy told him this kind of thing for no reason. It was definitely not as simple as saying it for fun.
Think of this
Several clues were connected in an instant, including the one who took advantage of him, was rich, didn't understand much, wanted to buy a film and television company, and was an islander.
"You mean we can also get involved?"
Thinking of these key pieces of information, Allen was a little impressed. Sony was a well-known scapegoat. The people from these islands seemed to really want to acquire the film and television company. They were not liars as Americans imagined!
"Yes! Haha, Master, do you think so too?"
Patrick watched as Alan finally remembered, and a surprised smile appeared on his face at the right moment.
As a film teacher and an actor when he was young, Patrice thinks that his acting skills are still online.
Since the people from the Islands want to acquire film and television companies, but the people in Hollywood still don’t pay attention to them, then
Why not ask this young master of yours to take action?
Compared to Hollywood film and television companies, is a film and television company with a count behind it more attractive to islanders?
The people from this archipelago are richer than the people from Xiangjiang!
Patrice knew that his Earl had been in some financial difficulties recently.
Anyway, the actual situation is not important to Patrice, but it is a way to make money. He found out the news and then passed the news to the earl. This is a credit. As for whether Allen should do it or not, then Let’s see what Mr. Allen means!
Looking at Patrice, Allen tapped his fingers on the table in thought.
He remembered that Charles seemed to have visited the island country last year, and the heat had not subsided yet.
As for the islanders, even though they admire their American godfather, they are also full of affection and yearning for Great Britain.
How else could they pull off a so-called plan to leave Asia and join Europe? !
They just lack access.
Now
Since there is an enemy of an island country who wants to acquire a film and television company, who should he accept?
Rather than going to their godfather's Hollywood for acquisitions, is it a better choice for their godfather, Daying?
"Can you contact them?"
Allen is a little interested in this group of islanders!
But he can't be very enthusiastic yet. He wants the people from the Islands to come to his door, but a new problem arises. He is not in Hollywood. This requires a middleman, or a lobbyist, to perform in front of the people from the Islands. play.
"It's okay, Master! Last time I went over, I met the leader of their acquisition team and had a few words with him."
"Um!"
Allen took a deep look at Patrice. This old guy is very capable and knows how to stay behind!
"Well, you go over this time and fix the schedule of the young actor. By the way, test them out and see if they have any idea of investing in my new movie. Let's get to know each other first."
"Oh? Master, who are you?"
Patrice looked at Allen, and the current opportunity was a good one. His Excellency the Earl was going to make a movie again, so it would not be impossible to involve the islanders as the first collaborative project between the two parties.
"Master, if you want them, how should we cooperate?"
"Let's talk about it after we get in touch! Don't be so enthusiastic. Just treat it like a casual leak of information during a chat. We'll see about the rest when we get in touch."
Allen had never asked Patrice to do such a thing, and he couldn't explain it to him too carefully, so he decided to take action himself this time.
"Okay, young master! Then I'll go back and make arrangements first!"
"Go ahead."
Patrice stood up and exited Allen's study. As soon as he opened the study door, he saw Huth who was about to knock on the door.
"Good afternoon, Butler Hu Te. Are you coming to see the young master too? I just finished talking to the young master."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Hu Te smiled politely, waited for Patrice to make room for him and came in first, then watched Patrice carefully close the door and go out.
"what happened again?"
Allen was still studying the game console in his hand. Speaking of the island country, the current manufacturer of game consoles seems not to have developed particularly well, right?
Is there any chance to steal some of their wool?
Someone needs to be arranged to investigate.
Hearing Hu Te's voice, Allen raised his head and glanced at Hu Te.
"Master, it's a little urgent. Butler Capel just called. He said he would come to visit you tomorrow and pass on some of His Highness's words."
"Oh what time."
Alan didn't take it seriously that Charles sent a butler so quickly. He thought it was Charles who came back and saw the prey he sent, and was so happy that he was ready to give him a gift in return.
"Tomorrow. Sir Capel said that he will depart from London at about ten o'clock and arrive at our side at one or two o'clock in the afternoon. The details will depend on the traffic conditions. He will call me in advance when he is about to arrive."
"Um"
Allen was fiddling with the game console in his hand. Alan, who didn't care much at first, suddenly moved his hands and asked with some uncertainty: "Departing from London? Your Highness is not at Highgrove Manor?"
"Then I don't know. Sir Capel's call came from London."
After Hu Te reported the situation, he saw that Allen was deep in thought, so he did not continue to disturb Allen here, but quietly turned around and left the study.
Yesterday, Allen personally sent William home. William and the princess lived in Highgrove Manor, but now Butler Capel called, but it was from London.
this.
Thinking of this, Alan inevitably had a headache. He was afraid of getting involved in Charles' family affairs, and he didn't want to take any side.
Forget it, let's wait until Capel comes tomorrow.
The next day, after taking care of things in the morning and having nothing to do early in the morning, Allen went back to take a short lunch break, but until two o'clock in the afternoon, he still had no news of Capel's arrival.
Just as he was about to ask Hu Te if he was delayed on the road, he saw Hu Te hurried into the bedroom. He looked at Allen who had just woken up and said, "Master, Butler Capel will be here in 20 minutes."
"Okay! Are everything ready?"
"Everything is ready!"
With the servants waiting on him, Allen changed into neat riding clothes and walked slowly to the stables.
He was going to wash the horse, and he was going to wash the horse that Charles had given him personally.
Now that Charles's butler is here, he still needs to do some superficial work. Look, His Excellency the Earl loves the horses donated by His Highness very much. He regards them as treasures and bathes them himself.
The old black Rolls-Royce slowly drove through the gate of the manor, with a dignified but elegant aura.
After getting off the car, Capel looked at Huth, who had been waiting for a long time, stretched out his hand to shake Huth, and said: "Sir Huth, please wait here. Where is Mr. Allen?"
"The young master is washing the horses. Look, would you like to wait in the living room for a while?"
"Oh? Then let's go over together to see you first."
Capel didn't mind it either. He followed Hut and the two of them walked and chatted until they reached the stables. From a distance, they saw Allen holding a shower head and seriously bathing the white horse given to him by His Highness.
Seeing this posture, Capel smiled. Others may not know it, but he knows very well that Lord Allen has never been very fond of riding horses. He even has a history of riding bulls. Even His Highness William was tempted by him. He learned to ride a bull, how could he take the initiative to bathe the horse when he had nothing to do?
Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted the arrival of Huth and Capel. Allen pretended to notice them suddenly and said with a smile: "Sir Capel, when did you come? Hahaha, we meet again."
Seeing Allen talking while giving the horse a bath, the white horse was dodging and not cooperating with the hot water coming out of Allen's nozzle, but it didn't dare to move. The expression on the horse's face looked very aggrieved. .
Seeing this scene, Capel said cheerfully: "I just arrived, Mr. Allen. I am very happy to see you. I didn't disturb your enjoyment, right?"
"No, no! Let's go." Allen had been bathing the horse here for about ten minutes. He was already a little impatient and handed the nozzle to the servant.
"Haha." Capel smiled and looked around again, walked to Allen and said, "Your Excellency, it's okay to take a walk outside. I'm here mainly to convey His Highness's message."
"Oh? That's okay."
Allen didn't care. He thought it was some kind of whisper that was not suitable for outsiders to hear, so he simply took Capel for a walk along the horse path.
"Your Excellency Allen, His Highness wants you to accompany him on his trip to Spain in a few days, and he has prepared a good thing for you."
