Rise of the Richest Man Reborn

This wad of dollar bills is at least a thousand dollars.

James.Cameron never expected that Lu Yixuan would be so generous and directly take such a large wad of dollar bills in his hand.

With such a sum of money, for him, it is undoubtedly an immediate solution to his urgent needs.

However, he can accept the situation of eating a meal with peace of mind, and taking such a large sum of money directly makes him really uncomfortable to the extreme.

"Lu, this money...I can't ask for it..."

Chapter 473 New Movie "Terminator"

However, Lu Yixuan did not take back the wad of dollar bills, and said with a smile, "Look, James, we are friends, right! If you really mind taking my money for nothing, you can exchange it with me, right?"

Saying that, he blinked his eyes.

James.Cameron subconsciously put his hands in front of his body: "Lu, but I don't have any valuables on me. I only have..."

Having said that, he shuddered suddenly, swallowed hard, and couldn't continue.

He obviously had some kind of bad misunderstanding of Lu Yixuan's little action of blinking his eyes just now.

I thought to myself, could it be that this mysterious Chinese man has fallen in love with his handsomeness, and for the sake of art, is it possible that he really has to pay for it once.

Lu Yixuan also had a chill, the old man looked at the old man, how could he not understand the subtext of Dao Ka's subconsciously putting his hands in front of his body.

It’s just that!

Damn, these stinky men who engage in literature and art have such dirty thoughts.

I'm obviously giving you a mischievous look, trying to make you feel more relaxed, but when did I fall in love with a man? It's too much.

Don't dare to let the misunderstanding continue to deepen.

Lu Yixuan hurriedly said: "Ahem, now you only have a not-so-stupid head!"

"Lu, you mean to say..."

"James, I heard that you have always dreamed of being a great film director. It just so happens that I have a fairly good outline of a science fiction story, and at the same time, I can come up with a considerable amount of money. How is it? Interested in making a sci-fi movie?"

"what?"

James.Cameron was quite surprised.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yixuan would have such a purpose, hesitantly said: "But, I have never been a director, and I have no directing experience at all... Well, despite my dream, I have always wanted to make a few great films, even though I I also like sci-fi movies..."

"Don't be so nonsense!

I will write the outline of the story, and invest another 500 million US dollars, and you will improve the script and find actors to film.

Another requirement is that I will only give you three months. After three months, I want to see the final product.

how about it?

This is a big challenge,

James, you future master of sci-fi movies, do you have the guts to take on such a challenge? "

James.When Cameron heard that Lu Yixuan was directly willing to invest 500 million US dollars, his eyes began to light up!

Good guy, 500 million investment in filming, this condition... Such a godsend opportunity, this is a chance to prove yourself at your doorstep!

You must know that the investment in films that are really well-known first-line directors in Hollywood is almost at this level.

He is a rookie in the industry...

but,

Even though the conditions were so tempting, Dao Ka still remained sober and rational, and was not dazzled by the sudden happiness that hit him head-on.

He collected himself, and said in a slightly trembling tone: "Lu, I want to read the outline of the story first.

With only three months of filming and production time, I have to understand what kind of story it is before I can be sure whether it can be completed or not. "

"That's right, you should be more cautious!"

Lu Yixuan gave a thumbs up and smiled, took out a document from his backpack, and threw it on James.Cameron's hands.

For James.Cameron has such a cautious attitude, and Lu Yixuan still agrees.

I also secretly praise it in my heart. It is worthy of being the world's top sci-fi film director in the previous life. With this, before the huge temptation, I can still recognize myself, rather than blindly confident and serious. Transcendental achievement is not ordinary.

Temporary success may exist by chance.

However, the No. 1 director of sci-fi films like Director Ka in his previous life did not make many films in his lifetime, but all the works he produced were all hits that led to the moment.

"Terminator" series, "True Lies", "Titanic", "Avatar"...

Is there any one that is not the top-quality movie that caused a frenzy all over the world after it became known to the world?

As a world-class famous director, it’s nothing to make one or two good movies. The movies he makes are all blockbusters and high-quality products, and all of them have exploded at the box office around the world.

This is extremely rare!

"Look, this is the outline of the plot of the story.

My requirement is that the length of the film should be controlled within 90 minutes to 120 minutes.

The addition of specific plots can be done by you. As long as the story does not deviate from the outline, I will not make too many detailed requirements for the plot.

Let me state in advance that this is a series of stories, and there are at least five feature films in the story content.

The outline of the plot you see now is just the beginning of the story.

In order to facilitate your follow-up plot creation, the background of the story is set in the current California.

With this setting, all post-production work such as filming and production can be completely obtained from local materials, lest you are too late in production time.

In addition, the opening screen, the first scene of the robot warriors in the future space and time, please give it to me, and wipe out the entire Hollywood DreamWorks..."

James.Cameron flipped through the outline of the story quickly, and unconsciously read the voice: "The name of the story is "Terminator", and it tells about a future machine intelligent life code-named Terminator T-800, which travels through time and space and returns to the present to protect the childhood computer genius designer, to prevent evil scientists from destroying humanity..."

I quickly scanned the outline of the story with only five or six hundred words, I don't know what happened, James.In Cameron's mind, suddenly a feeling came out, this story is really familiar and kind.

Obviously it's just an outline, so simple that it can't be simpler,

But at this moment, this sci-fi story, which can be summed up in one sentence, seemed to have a real life, and it actually began to appear in his mind, gradually becoming complete.

He really thought of a lot of wonderful details all at once.

For example, inspired by a simple and concise image of a future machine intelligent life form in this simple plot outline document, he even immediately locked on which Hollywood actor would be the most suitable to play the leading role.

"Arnold Schwarzenegger, this leading actor seems to be tailor-made for this kid. I happen to have some friendship with this guy. If he is invited to play the leading role, there must be no problem..."

James.In Cameron's mind, he has even begun to lock in the main actors of the film.

In fact, after seeing the sketch page in the plot outline, he completely recognized the image of the protagonist at once. The left eye showed a strong mechanical texture, and the male protagonist had a tough facial features like a knife and an axe. , so fit.

This kind of makeup photo of the protagonist was almost engraved in his heart, just like the image of a hero he saw in his dream.

This indescribable feeling even gave him an urge to take out a pen and paper to complete a more complete storyline.

Chapter 474

Chapter 474

"Lu, you really like me so much, are you willing to give me a chance?"

James.Cameron suppressed the excitement in his heart, still feeling incredible, and confirmed it to Lu Yixuan again.

In his opinion, since Lu Yixuan has the outline of the story in hand, he has such a complete picture concept for the film, and he does not lack the funds to invest in the filming.

There is a lot of strikes going on in Hollywood right now, and many big-name directors are staying at home and waiting for work.

It can be said that at any time, one hundred people who are stronger than him in terms of reputation and technology can be found to be film directors.

What's more, he didn't believe at all that Lu Yixuan really only had a simple story outline of a few hundred words in his hands.

He just read the outline casually, and he was able to complete the whole story. What does this mean?

One explanation, although this story belongs to the theme of science fiction, the entry point of the story is quite popular and ingenious, with a strong sense of substitution and attractiveness, and it is a good story that can attract audiences;

Another note,

This mysterious Chinese man has a thorough understanding of sci-fi movies, far surpassing those so-called big-name directors and gold-medal screenwriters in the Hollywood circle.

It shows that this Chinese man is an expert who really understands what science fiction movies are!

Cooperating with such an expert, you don't have to worry about diverging thousands of miles in the direction of film production, and you don't have to pee in a urinal.

Lu Yixuan laughed loudly: "James, do you have the confidence to take on this challenge?"

James.Cameron said: "Well, I am indeed confident that according to your request, within three months, the final film will be produced..."

"Okay, that's good. If you have confidence, you can say anything, so it's a deal!"

"No, please wait... Lu, I have another question, I really want to know, why did you approve of me?

After all, in the Hollywood industry, there are many big-name directors who are [-] times stronger than me in terms of reputation and ability. For investors, I am not your best choice! "

"James, you are wrong, for me, you are the best, the best sci-fi card director!"

"But, I really don't understand..." James.Cameron still couldn't believe that such a godsend opportunity would fall on his head so easily.

You know, before today, he was already desperate and hungry for three days.

He always felt that this magical oriental man seemed to be here for himself, and asking him to make a film was just a matter of incident.

I'm so handsome, even though I'm a married man, but...

"Haha, let me formally introduce myself!"

Lu Yixuan didn't know, James.Cameron once again started to think about things in a crooked direction, laughed a few times, and said seriously: "I am in China, and I have another name, Lu Yixuan.

Well, the names of Chinese people may not be intuitive to you.

To put it bluntly, the film "Shaolin Temple" was filmed by me, and Xiangjiang Huanyu Films is a wholly-owned company under my name.

James, if you are still hesitant, let me be more specific.

It was on the day of the Oscar awards ceremony that I witnessed everything you spoke out for the film "Shaolin Temple" with my own eyes, which made me believe that you are a person with dreams and more professional ethics.

Therefore, I am very willing to bet all of this new film investment and shooting plan on you!

Now, do you understand why I like you? "

James.Cameron was stunned, covering his cheeks with his hands, rubbing his face vigorously a few times, and looked at Lu Yixuan with a look of astonishment:

"My God!

Lu, it turns out that you are the investor behind the movie "Shaolin Temple"!

I have communicated with Director Zhang. Director Zhang has great admiration and respect for you as an investor.

Director Zhang said, "Shaolin Temple" was filmed with your participation and guidance throughout the whole process.

And it is your participation in directing that made "Shaolin Temple" make great progress in terms of plot tension and many technical innovations in film composition.

Even all the martial arts instruction movements in the film "Shaolin Temple" were choreographed and designed by you and the actors.

There are also music and songs in the film, all of which are full of mysterious oriental style.

It can be said that you are the real soul of this film.

Before that, I thought that this is an inherent problem of you Chinese people, and all credit should be attributed to the leaders.

But after communicating with you today, especially when you introduced the script of the movie "Terminator", I really believe that Director Zhang did not lie.

Lu, your understanding of movies is really much better than those of us self-righteous guys!

How lucky I am to be valued by you, how lucky I am! "

While talking, James.Cameron held up the outline of the "Terminator" script with both hands, facing Lu Yixuan, knelt on the ground with one knee devoutly, held the outline of the script with both hands above his head.

Make a pair, the action of a medieval knight saluting his lord.

Full of sense of ceremony, full of sincerity.

This posture is really expressing his loyalty to Lu Yixuan with what he considers to be the highest etiquette.
