Entertainment Empire System

The bright moon knows no sorrow, I look forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, look at the moon in my hometown in the distance, and shed tears on the autumn night. --[Zhongqiu 1st]

Who would believe it without evidence? Although this thing seems very possible, Vin Diesel would never have the confidence to talk to him like this if he hadn't been leaning against a tree.

Looking at Vin Diesel's domination of the world now, he seems to have the kind of temperament that once he takes action, he has the world and can put all of Hollywood under his feet.

But Winnie has never forgotten the fact that Vin Diesel is an actor, and he is an actor with very good acting skills. Therefore, what should I do if it is you, Vin Diesel, who deceived me about a question like this? As an actor, acting is a basic skill, so now I want Vin Diesel to provide evidence for you.

But now, looking at Pooh's aggressive attitude when he first entered the door, he has restrained himself a lot.

Vin Diesel's whole figure was like a tall and tall pine, standing there arrogantly, letting the cold wind blow, he looked at Pooh with contempt and said: "Do I look like someone who can lie?

Anyway, let you take a look at the phone call from Rob Cohen last night. If you don't believe it, you can call and see if it's the director of Fast and Furious. I just want to verify it too? "

This contemptuous look made Pooh feel very uncomfortable. It was definitely the look of a down-and-out person that no one could imagine, but the look of a real winner in life.

At least it was a pair of hopeful eyes. At this moment, Pooh couldn't help but believe it. If this thing was really performed by Vin Diesel, then at this time, this guy's acting skills can almost be said to be superb. It's so bad. If you really mess with such acting skills, even if Spielberg and Cameron want to block it, it won't be an easy task.

The more famous the actors are and the better their acting skills are, the higher the price they have to pay if they want to be banned. Therefore, Winnie believes that the feasibility of this matter is very great.

He didn't call in person, but after seeing the number, he took out his mobile phone, opened the phone book, checked it, and then nodded and returned the phone to Vin Diesel and said: "I mean, man, really This is Rob Cohen's call. You have a chance to get rich now and become famous in the future, but don't forget me as your landlord."

After Vinny saw the phone call, he finally believed that this thing was true. Rob Cohen really called Vin Diesel. Whether he was asked to audition or not, he and Rob Cohen were related. There's nothing wrong with that. Even if it's not acting, even if it's helping with props and choreography on the set of The Fast and the Furious, that's a rare step.

Vin Diesel looked at Vinnie in surprise and said: "You are the owner of a fast food restaurant, why do you have Rob Cohen's phone number? Although this is not a secret, it is not easy for people outside to know. of?"

Vinnie looked at Vin Diesel with contempt and said, "You don't know this, do you? Brother, I was also an actor back then. I debuted in movies at the age of three. I used to be a child star, and I'm still in the Screen Actors Guild." It was registered, but it was just that the old man later moved to Hawaii to retire, so I came back to take over the fast food restaurant.

Fat brother, when I was acting, you didn't know where to put on your diaper. "

Hollywood is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. A fat man opens a fast food restaurant. Thinking that he was once a child star and had such a glorious past. If the fat man hadn't said it so sincerely, at this time, Vin Diesel would have thought that this matter was caused by the fat man. You're deceiving people.

He shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be very surprised and said: "How can pigs fly into the sky, and you are actually a child star? God, this is simply unbelievable. You don't look like a child star no matter what." Materials. Brother, make sure you are not lying."

Pooh snorted softly, as if he didn't bother to argue at all: "It's not like I don't have the phone numbers of the four legendary directors. Although my brother has left the entertainment industry, I still have the phone numbers of some big-name directors in the entertainment industry. , as long as the lunch boxes of these directors' crews are in Hollywood, more than half of them are supplied by me. This is called building relationships. Do you understand, it is not easy to run a fast food restaurant business.

By the way, if you go to the set of Fast and Furious. Once you are selected, ask me for an autograph from Ye Ming. I am a fan of this guy. Chinese Kung Fu is definitely a good show worth watching. "

Although Fatty is said to be so fat that he can hardly perform tricks, it does not prevent him from liking Chinese Kung Fu. Bruce Lee, Cheng Long, Jet Li and other stars are his idols, especially Bruce Lee's domineering world. Such momentum is rare among Chinese people. And Ye Ming's fighting is absolutely eye-catching, clean and neat, not sloppy at all.

Ye Ming likes to be able to knock the enemy to the ground in one second, then it will definitely not take two seconds.

This style is very consistent with the American values ​​of personal heroism.

Vin Diesel immediately nodded and said: "There is no problem with this. If I meet Ye Ming, I will ask for it for you. You can see if the rent is okay."

Pooh was not a person who was easy to fool. He waved his hand and said immediately: "Boy, don't even think about it. This matter is one code and one code. It cannot be confused at all. Believe it or not, without you, I will go to Speed ​​and Speed ​​​​and For the Passion crew, it will be easy to find Ye Ming’s autograph.”

If Fatty at least delivers lunch boxes to the Fast and Furious crew, it probably won't be a big problem. The lunch boxes made by this guy are indeed quite tempting, and Vin Diesel has a say in this.

In fact, in the United States, it is normal for one code to belong to another code, and friendship is friendship. Maybe they will spend 3,500 to treat you to dinner, but in business, they will not give up even one dollar.

Vin Diesel had actually expected such a result for a long time. It would be strange if you agreed to reduce or reduce your rent because of this.

Therefore, Vin Diesel was not disappointed at all at this moment, and said with a smile: "You are not kind at all, just don't exempt it, by the way, lend me three hundred yuan, there is no money in my pocket, I want this morning Go to the crew to audition right away. If you don’t have money, is that possible?”

Vin Diesel really had no cash at this time, so finding Fat Pooh was naturally a good candidate to borrow money from. In the past, Vin Diesel believed that he could not borrow money from For You. After all, whether Vin Diesel could insist on staying in Hollywood was a mystery before. Therefore, I want to find For You. Borrowing money is almost impossible.

In Vinny's words, not throwing Vin Diesel's luggage on the street is already a kindness of his wife. But it's different now. Now Vin Diesel has an enterprising spirit no matter what.

Therefore, it is still possible to borrow money without losing everything.

It's a pity that the fat man is not a fool. Vinnie glanced at Vin Diesel and said: "Don't tell me that you have no money in the bank. Do you find it interesting that you are doing this in front of me, a senior? Tell you, I When I was five years old, banks already had my personal account. Don’t tell me you don’t have one now.”

When it comes to the money in the bank, Vin Diesel is also very helpless at this moment. It would be okay if he doesn't mention this. But if he mentions this, it will make him feel sad no matter what.

At this moment, Vin Diesel said with some frustration: "Forget about the bank, last time I joined a production crew, the director said that I would buy a car in my name and loan the production crew to repay it. What happened?"

There is no need to go on about this matter. Fatty knows it very well for you. He took over the words and said: "As a result, the director broke the appointment and the crew did not pay back the money at all. In the end, this debt will only be settled on you, right? If I My guess is correct, the crew has been disbanded.

As a result, the bank has frozen your account now, right? Vin Diesel, I have to say that you bastard is a tragedy. Do you want me to believe that your IQ is enough to be an actor? "

Vin Diesel was so thunderous, how could Vinnie be so familiar with this kind of thing. He looked at Pooh with his mouth wide open and said, "If I hadn't known that you were my landlord, would I have thought that you were the strategist behind it among the people who tricked me?"

Pooh knew this too well, and he simply followed this mold to deceive actors.

The fat man gave him a look of disdain for you and said: "You rookies will believe that the crew will pay back the money. In fact, these are all the leftovers from our play back then. We used a 20-minute video shot with a handheld camera. The contract robbed not only an actor, but in the end it also robbed Universal Group of half a million, and as a result, Universal's legal team sued him to quit Hollywood."

At this time, Vin Diesel was really speechless. He looked at Fat Pooh with great admiration. He widened his eyes and said: "The Black Forest Fraud Incident, you are talking about the Black Forest Fraud Incident. This is your Made it?"

Fat Pooh said very proudly: ""What is the Black Forest Fraud Incident? Did I commit fraud? No, otherwise I would still be in jail. Do you think Universal’s lawyer Tian is so easy to deal with?

We didn't commit any crime, we were just making some money by taking advantage of some unspoken rules of watching Hollywood. We didn't do anything illegal in the contract. That's it. "

Obviously Fatty is still very proud of his glorious past. The Black Forest Fraud incident is something that would never appear in any newspaper or TV station in Hollywood, but it is indeed the pinnacle of fraud.

In fact, this is really not a fraud in the legal sense, but a matter of taking advantage of Hollywood's hidden rules to obtain filming fees from the film company.

In fact, things are relatively simple to say. I came across a headhunting system in Hollywood. This kind of headhunting is to provide actors, scripts and other jobs for major film companies.

Of course, there is a fee, and the fee depends on the size of the matter. The Black Forest Incident is about Fat Winnie, who united two friends, shot a video with a portable camera, and then advertised that the Black Forest crew was recruiting actors. The key is, at this time, Fatty and the three of them said they would not charge any fees. cost.

This is the most shrewd thing about Fatty. Once he collects money but the movie is not shot, it will violate the law and it is suspected of fraud.

But Fat Winnie's Black Forest crew didn't say what fees they would charge, but in the end they said they could let actors become shareholders and join the crew, and then they got a fee, and it was clearly written in the contract that once the movie couldn't be filmed, the money would be lost It must be returned.

Fatty used the money to build relationships for you and the three of them, found a headhunter, added his own crew and a twenty-minute video, and submitted it to Universal, saying that he hoped Universal would invest in this crew. When the headhunter submitted these, specialized people from Universal determined that the film was innovative.

So I hope Fatty sells the rights to this movie. The price is one million, with half a million paid in advance. As a result, the contract was signed and the matter was completed.

Universal paid an advance of half a million yuan, but as a result, Fat Pooh not only disbanded the crew, but also disbanded the company established specifically for the filming of this movie, called Magic Films. This company was created to deceive film companies into investing.

Since it is said that Magic Film Company is bankrupt, of course there is no such thing as fraud at this time.

The law is the law. The contract states that Fantastic Film Company is selling the rights to the movie, but it does not say that Fantastic Film Company must complete the filming of the film.

Although it is said that Fantastic Film Company did cheat Universal. Things don't really end here. In fact, the final result of this matter was that Universal established a small company to continue filming the film.

Later, this movie had a very famous name [Blair Witch], and its box office revenue was 300 million. The key is that Fat Pooh later proposed to share.

The reason is that the first twenty minutes of Blair Witch were produced by their Magic Film Company. According to the contract, Magic Film Company enjoys a 2% share. Even if Magic Film Company does nothing, the result will be at least 1%. Divide of two.

In the end, Universal sent a team of lawyers to fight the lawsuit. In the end, the lawsuit became an open case, and there is still no verdict because Fantastic Film Company has gone bankrupt. In theory, its profits must repay the company's debts and so on.

The biggest creditor of Magic Films is Universal. This lawsuit is probably not that easy to figure out. But one thing is undeniable. Fat Pooh is well-informed. Although he has left the world, there is still a legend about him in the world.

Therefore, this kind of fraud is very familiar to Pooh.

PS: [Mid-Autumn Moon] is relatively long, so I’ll release it in chapters one after another. It’s a bit confusing to release it in one chapter, haha. (To be continued)
