Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

The reason why Xiao Yunhai paid attention to this guy was mainly because he said on his resume that the reason for those failed movies was not him, but the producer behind him who directed carelessly and messed up the entire crew, which seriously deviated from his direction. The concept, coupled with the fact that the film was born at an untimely time, encountered a hit film at the time, and this was the problem.

In order to judge the authenticity of his resume, Xiao Yunhai found out the news at that time from the Internet, and it was true that this guy was quite unlucky.

Even the last failed film was related to Xiao Yunhai, so he ran into his "Jing Wu Heroes" by chance.

Except for a few outstanding directors, other directors in Hollywood only have the right to fail twice. Plancico failed to make money for investors for four consecutive films, and the result can be imagined.

For more than a year, no company or investor asked him to make a movie.

In a bar in Los Angeles, a middle-aged man with messy hair is drinking with a thin young man.

If there are movie fans around, they will definitely be able to recognize that both of them are very famous figures in Hollywood. The older one is Plancico, and the younger one is Lance, a first-line Hollywood actor.

Lance is an actor brought out by Plancico. He played the supporting role and the leading role in two of Plancico's best-selling films respectively, making him from a film school student to a first-line movie star in an instant.

Therefore, the relationship between the two is very good, comparable to father and son.

"Teacher, you can't drink any more." Lance stopped Plancico's hand that was about to take the wine glass, and said, "You should take a good shower now, clean yourself up, and at least give Mr. Make a good impression."

Plancico forced a self-deprecating smile on his face, and said, "Interview? How is it possible? It has been two days since I submitted my resume, and I haven't received an interview call at all. I heard that he has already met four popular directors. And we had a good conversation. It is estimated that the director of "Spider-Man" has been selected long ago. Lance, I am really grateful that you can still remember me as an old man. Do you know? With your size and acting skills, Spider-Man this The role is tailor-made for you. Unfortunately, I am not the director, otherwise I would definitely use you."

Despite Lance's dissuasion, Plancico took another sip of beer.

Lance shook his head and continued to persuade: "Teacher, you once told me that opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. You are only in a temporary downturn now, and everyone in the circle knows that the two movies Failure has nothing to do with you at all, you are just a scapegoat for others, I believe people with vision will soon find you to film. Even if they don't find you, you can still write the script yourself. "

Plancico said drunkenly: "Over the past year, I have written three scripts, and I have submitted to almost all the film companies, but all of them have disappeared, and there is not even a trace of news."

"Hehe, I really envy Bi Kewen, an investor who is as generous as Mr. Xiao and can give the greatest autonomy."

Plancico took another sip of his wine and said, "Unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity like him. Maybe, my director career is over."

After speaking, he lay down on the table.

At this moment, Plancico's cell phone on the table rang suddenly.

Seeing Prancico sitting there without any response, as if he was about to die of drunkenness, Lance shook his head helplessly and answered the phone for him.

"Hello."

"Is this Mr. Plancico? I'm Raul, the general manager of Marvel Comics. I don't know if you are free tomorrow. Our boss, Mr. Xiao, wants to meet with you to discuss issues related to "Spider-Man." "

When Lance heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. Looking at Plancico, who had already fallen asleep, he said quickly, "Mr. Raul, I am Lance, a Hollywood actor. Mr. Plancico is in the bathroom, and it is inconvenient to answer the phone." .I'll let him know the good news."

Raul smiled and said, "So it's the famous Mr. Lance, hello. Then please tell Mr. Plancico, if you are interested in "Spider Thread", please come to our Marvel building at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. "

Lance suppressed his excitement and said, "I think he will be very happy to hear the news. Thank you, Mr. Lauer."

Raul said, "You're welcome."

After the conversation, Lance put the money for the drink on the table, and then helped Plancico, who was already unconscious, back to his residence.

At seven o'clock the next morning, Lance came to Plancico's bedroom and saw that he was still sleeping like a dead pig. He couldn't help but shook his head, walked forward and shook him awake abruptly.

Looking at his sleepy look, Lance said loudly: "Teacher, if you don't get up again, I think you will really miss "Spider-Man."

Hearing this familiar name, Plancico froze for a moment, then opened his eyes suddenly, and asked with an incredulous expression, "Lance, what... what did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."

Lance smiled and said: "Teacher, congratulations, Mr. Raul from Marvel Comics called you last night and informed you to meet Mr. Xiao at nine o'clock this morning. It is seven ten, if you are late After a while, maybe you're really going to end your career as a director."

When Plancico heard it, he immediately cheered, like a fake corpse, got out of bed straight out of bed with excitement, just stood up, suddenly stopped again, and said suspiciously: "Lance, you are not You're lying to me to make me happy."

Lance shrugged and said indifferently: "If you think I'm lying to you, you don't have to go."

Looking at Prancico's look of suspicion in anticipation, Lance finally couldn't help laughing and said: "Okay, teacher, our time is already very tight. I already called the clothing brand company I endorsed last night. I called and asked them to bring you a suit according to your size. It is estimated that they will be here at [-]:[-]. My professional stylist will arrive at [-]:[-] and ask her to help you fix it. Mr. Xiao He is a world-renowned director, and he will not be fooled like other investors. You have to take advantage of this opportunity."

Plancico believed it completely at this time, and said gratefully: "Lance, thank you. When I asked you to be an actor in my movie, I really did not make a mistake. I believe that as long as Mr. Xiao and I I'll be able to impress him with half an hour's talk. Get ready, my Spider-Man."

"Oh." At this point, Plancico suddenly patted his thigh and said, "It's broken, I wrote some of my thoughts on "Spider's Thread" on my laptop. No, I have to Hurry back and print them out."

Lance said with a smile: "Teacher, I saw you giving up on yourself in the bar last night, and I was quite worried. But now it seems that you are well prepared. Don't worry, let's have breakfast first, and when the stylist comes over, I'll drive to your house to get your laptop. The distance is not far anyway, two or ten minutes at most."

Plancico nodded and said, "Alright. Lance, thank you."

Lance said: "Teacher, you have thanked me many times."

Chapter 912 Meeting

At [-]:[-], Prancico in a suit and leather shoes drove Lance's car to the headquarters of Marvel Comics.

As soon as he got out of the car, Plancico saw a very domineering off-road vehicle, which slowly stopped beside his car, and then a young man in his 20s stood up with a good look.

Plancico's eyes lit up, and he hurried up to meet him, saying, "Mr. Xiao, nice to meet you."

Xiao Yunhai had seen Plancico's photos, and the person in front of him looked slightly older than in the photos, but he still recognized him at a glance.

"Mr. Plancico, I didn't expect that we were so destined that we even came here at the same time." Xiao Yunhai smiled and shook hands with him.

Plancico laughs: "If we had the same idea for Spider-Man, it would be even more perfect."

Xiao Yunhai laughed loudly and said: "I hope so. Let's go up together."

The two came to Xiao Yunhai's magnificent office together. A staff member made a cup of tea for Xiao Yunhai and brought a cup of coffee for Francis. After closing the door, the two chatted.

"Mr. Plancico, I've read your resume. Isn't it a bit unkind for you to attribute the failure of the next two films to the producer?" Xiao Yunhai said without any concealment out.

Plancico was shocked, and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Xiao, I admit that the main purpose of writing this is to get your attention, but what I'm telling is the truth. The whole Hollywood knows about this, but no one Dare to say it."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said with a smile: "Your goal has been achieved, and you have successfully attracted my attention. Let me single out you and the other four from more than 100 resumes."

Prancico said: "I would like to ask a question. Mr. Xiao, is it impossible for the other four directors to have the opportunity to direct "Spider-Man"?"

Xiao Yunhai did not hide anything, and said: "That's right. They are also very good, but the concept of directing this movie is too far from mine, and even a little bit different, so it is a pity that they can only be eliminated. But it is not That means you're [-]% guaranteed to be the director of Spider-Man."

"You should know that the first "Spider-Man" failed, and the fans were full of criticism, and the word-of-mouth and box office were extremely poor. In this way, the second "Spider-Man" is particularly important. If you do it again If it fails, then this superhero series may really be over."

"So, Mr. Plancico, if I asked you to direct this show, how would you go about portraying Spider-Man?"

Prancico said: "Mr. Xiao, since I submitted my resume, I have been researching Spider-Man, and at the same time I have written down many of my ideas. Please have a look."

Plancico took out a stack of thick papers from his briefcase, there were more than 40 sheets, obviously he put a lot of effort into it.

Xiao Yunhai admired his serious attitude, lowered his head, and looked carefully.

Needle dropping could be heard in the office, only the sound of Xiao Yunhai turning the pages of the book.

Plancico seemed to be drinking coffee and reading the newspaper leisurely, but in fact his mind was completely on Xiao Yunhai. Every ten seconds, he would take a peek at Xiao Yunhai.It took half an hour to finish reading a report. As for the content, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Xiao Yunhai's face was as calm as water, but his heart was full of turmoil. What Plancico wrote was exactly the same as the previous "Spiderman". Not much.
