Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

"Then can we meet Mr. Xiao?"

"He has gone to Los Angeles, and he will arrive at noon the day after tomorrow. Even if he is in New York, he will not meet with you in private. However, what I can tell you is that Mr. Xiao will never open his mouth."

"That's good."

In the manor villa in Los Angeles, Xiao Yunhai was lying comfortably on a chair with a mobile phone in his hand, chatting with his wife Zhao Wanqing.

"Husband, you are really good. I thought you would come back soon, but I didn't expect to make such a big fight." Zhao Wanqing said with a smile.

Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said: "Coincidentally, a new type of mobile network technology was developed during this period, and it is related to hundreds of billions of dollars. Do you think I can leave?"

Zhao Wanqing said: "I know the seriousness, and I don't mean to blame you. By the way, are you in your villa in New York now? Why doesn't it look like it to me. Also, why is your phone not working?"

Xiao Yunhai giggled and said, "I came to Los Angeles after the press conference, mainly to hide from the quiet. As for the mobile phone, hehe, if I don't turn off the phone, the boss of a telecommunications company all over the world can call it Explosion. Wife, how about the earthquake relief work?"

Zhao Wanqing said: "I have already contacted Yu's Real Estate Company. They will send a team to the earthquake zone to build some nursing homes, orphanages and schools. They don't ask for any profit."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Boss Yu is quite interesting, how many people are there?"

Zhao Wanqing sighed, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, and said: "There are 70 elderly people in their 630s, and 840 orphans who have lost their parents. The government and the bank are investigating the deposits of their families. If there are, they will Apply for their certificates again. With this money and our help, we should be able to take care of the old and support the young.”

Xiao Yunhai said: "That's good. By the way, I heard you say that you are reading a TV drama script a few days ago. How is it?"

When Zhao Wanqing heard this question, her eyes lit up immediately, and she said, "This is a script given to me by director Du Hongtai. It's called "Power". It includes everything from high-level leaders to small citizens. The plot is also very compact, and I am very interested in this drama."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Do you want to play the heroine?"

Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "It's not the heroine, but the anti-hero, who plays two roles."

Xiao Yunhai asked: "Then, have you had your script reviewed by the Film and Television Bureau? If you don't clear the checkpoint in advance for such a sensitive subject, it may not be able to be played."

In the previous life, there was a popular drama called "In the Name of the People", which was also about anti-corruption, and the ratings were frighteningly high.At the time of filming, because of the subject matter, no one dared to invest, and it was almost impossible to shoot.

Zhao Wanqing said: "Director Du went for an audit and was dismissed. That's how he found me."

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Then what are you going to do?"

Zhao Wanqing said, "I've already told Director Du, and I'll deal with it when you come back."

"Damn it." Xiao Yunhai yelled: "You will really give me a job. This kind of TV series can pass as long as it can, and no one can do anything if it doesn't pass."

Zhao Wanqing sneered and said, "Husband, I thought you could handle everything? I never thought that there would be times when you couldn't do it."

Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and said: "You don't come here. This aggressive method is useless to me. Then, you send me the script, and I want to read it. If it's really good, I'll go to the Ministry of Culture Liang uncle."

Zhao Wanqing said: "Okay. Take a good look at it while you're free."

Soon, Zhao Wanqing sent the script to Xiao Yunhai.

Xiao Yunhai spent the whole afternoon reading it from the beginning to the end, and thought to himself: "No wonder it doesn't pass."

The script of "Power" stepped on the line too seriously. It was more explicit than that of "In the Name of the People", but the plot was also more ups and downs.Especially in the factional struggle, both the good and the evil have their own tricks and launched a close contest.

If you want to rate it, Xiao Yunhai will give it at least nine points.

Xiao Yunhai would feel a pity if such a script was not filmed.

Chapter 1804 The True Story of Forrest Gump

After dinner, Xiao Yunhai received a call from Du Hongtai.

"Director Du, why do you have my temporary mobile phone number?" Xiao Yunhai asked.

Du Hongtai laughed and said, "Of course Wanqing told me. Yunhai, tell me what you think of this script?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Classic. If it is filmed, it will probably break the ratings record."

Du Hongtai said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to have such a high opinion of it? If Lao Hong heard it, he would be very happy."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Who is Lao Hong? The screenwriter of "Power"?"

Du Hongtai hummed, and said: "That's right. His name is Hong Lei, he is a writer, and he has written many novels about officialdom. "Power" is his first TV drama script."

Xiao Yunhai said in admiration: "Mr. Hong is really amazing to be able to write such a script. It's just that it's not a simple matter to broadcast it on China's TV stations."

Du Hongtai sighed, and said: "I'm worried about this matter. The film and television bureau told me directly that the officialdom described in the script is too real, and there are suspicions of discrediting officials. Yunhai, can you think of a way?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "It's difficult. Originally, I planned to go to Director Liang, but after watching this play, I immediately dismissed the idea. I dare say that Director Liang will [-]% not let this script pass the review. Director Du, do you have any questions?" No plans to change the script?"

Du Hongtai smiled wryly and said: "Lao Hong's temperament is too stubborn. It's okay to change the small details, but the big plot can't be changed. Yunhai, to be honest, I really like this script from the bottom of my heart."

Xiao Yunhai pondered for a while, and said: "Director Du, how about this, let's think of a way together when I return to Yanjing. It should be after four o'clock in the morning at Yanjing, so you should sleep a little longer."

Du Hongtai sighed, "How can I sleep?"

Xiao Yunhai knew very well the anguish of a director seeing a good script but being unable to shoot, so he comforted Du Hongtai a few words before hanging up the phone.

The next day, Xiao Yunhai drove to the studio of actor David Hartnett.

It is said to be a studio, but it is actually just a few offices rented. There is only one person for each position, and the most likely bodyguards are the most.

Of course, although the sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs, and everyone has their own responsibilities.

Guided by the beautiful manager Melinda Dunlop, Xiao Yunhai walked into David's office.

"Hey, David, what are you up to?" Xiao Yunhai greeted with a smile.

David Hartnett was reading a TV drama script. He raised his head when he heard the voice, saw that it was Xiao Yunhai, and quickly got up and said, "Mr. Xiao, why didn't you tell you that you were coming, so I can go down to meet you?" .”

Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to call you when I was downstairs, but I happened to meet Ms. Melinda, so I came up together. Are you reading the script?"

David Harnett asked Xiao Yunhai to sit on the sofa, and said, "I'm watching a suspense TV series. Mr. Xiao, what are you doing here?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled, and said: "I just want to ask if you have a schedule. I'm going to shoot a pure American movie."

Melinda, who was about to leave, stopped when she heard Xiao Yunhai's words, and replied, "Mr. Xiao, David won't be available until mid-September."

Xiao Yunhai groaned, and said: "It's too late. Because I don't know when I can start filming?"

David Harnett asked, "Mr. Xiao, what movie are you going to make?"

Xiao Yunhai's status in the global film industry is not second-guess, and none of the recent films has a box office of less than 100 billion US dollars.

If you want to say who is the director who attracts actors the most?At least nine out of ten people would choose Xiao Yunhai.

"I wrote a script for a literary film called "Forrest Gump". The male protagonist in it, Forrest Gump, I think you are quite suitable for acting." Xiao Yunhai laughed.

David Harnett froze for a moment, and said, "Mr. Xiao, are you planning to shoot a literary film? This is too unbelievable."
