The visitor was Yan Yuanan, a director who had appeared frequently in China in the past year and was highly regarded by the China Film Administration.

But now, he appeared in Gaul, and was introduced by Antonisenna.

Xu Xuan felt a little ironic, but he also understood that without Anthony Senna's introduction, Yan Yuanan would not have a good excuse to see him, and Xu Xuan might not necessarily meet him.

Although Wang Shuo and others highly praised him, Xu Xuan never regarded this person as a serious opponent.

Rather than saying that Xu Xuan valued him, it would be better to value Lu Ruzhou more.

Anthony Senna smiled helplessly: "Xu, I'm very sorry, I really can't..."

Xu Xuan patted Anthony Senna on the shoulder to comfort her: "Go and rest first, I'll treat you to dinner tonight."

In fact, it was impossible for Xu Xuan to blame Anthony. After all, even without her, there would be others who would find her through various means.

After Anthony left, Yan Yuanan put on a standard international smile, extended his hand and said, "I've wanted to talk to Director Xu alone for a long time, but I never had the chance. I hope our meeting this time will be a pleasant one."

Xu Xuan gave him a strange look and said, "What does your happiness have to do with me? You are here to cut my flesh, and you want me to agree to it happily. Is this the basic etiquette you learn in Eagle National Academy?"

Yan Yuanan didn't know how to return the hand he stretched out. It was also awkward to just raise it like that. He also didn't expect Xu Xuan to be so rude to him.

It is no exaggeration to say that when Yan Yuanan came to China, Wang Shuo, Lu Ruzhou, Zhou Xiangqun and others were very obedient to him, because everyone wanted to be associated with Yan Yuanan, and even be able to enter the world-class film hall of Hollywood.

Moreover, Yan Yuanan rose to fame as a Chinese in the Eagle Country, which makes him even more legendary.

At the same time, Yan Yuanan did have one or two of his works nominated for Oscars, which is a very rare thing and also what Yan Yuanan is most proud of.

Therefore, when cooperating with domestic partners, Wei Xizhen was extremely looking forward to and yearning for it.

Moreover, even if the investment failed, Wei Xizhen still did not think it was Yan Yuanan's fault, but that the market had changed. She summarized almost all the mistakes and then made up her mind to exclude them for Yan Yuanan.

This is the basic psychology of preconceived ideas and worshipping foreign things.

So Xu Xuan didn't have that kind of mood. When he looked at Yan Yuanan, it was almost the same as when he looked at Wang Shuo and others. He was just a director, and a director who had achieved some success before, that's all.

If it were a director who was much older and had made reforms to the film industry, Xu Xuan would definitely respect him, but when it came to a director like Yan Yuanan who was almost half commercial and half artistic, there was nothing much to praise.

To be honest, Xu Xuan's total box office revenue in the four years since his debut and the three years as a director is more than what this group of people have contributed combined. Why should Xu Xuan be nice to people who are stealing his interests?

Yan Yuanan represented Hollywood in seizing the copyright of "Forrest Gump".

So, sometimes when people are praised by others, they feel that it is real.

This is also why many artists in the entertainment industry suddenly become inflated, and people feel that this person is extremely arrogant for no reason.

It's not that they are really arrogant, it's just their own illusion.

Being adored by fans, praised by the media, and all these things over the years, don’t they give these people the impression that they are the greatest in the world!

Once something happens and they are hit hard, they will repent, but it will be too late!

Yan Yuanan is a typical example of a person who is overly praised by the Chinese people. Almost no one in the country says anything unpleasant about him. Even on the Internet, most of the topics and posts are praising him.

And what about Xu Xuan?

On the domestic Internet, there are mixed reviews, some defending and some criticizing.

Therefore, Yan Yuanan feels that Xu Xuan's popularity and status in the country are not as high as his.

This time Hollywood asked him to be the middleman to talk to Xu Xuan first. The meaning was very clear: we want the copyright of "Forrest Gump", otherwise we will take away your Michael Entertainment and even WL Film and Television Company.

Hollywood only wanted Yan Yuanan to serve as a test case, but Yan Yuanan obviously did not have this awareness. He started by talking to the audience on an equal footing and looking them in the eye.

Who gave you the courage?

Money?

Or status?!

So Xu Xuan's look was a little strange, and he didn't shake hands with the other party.

I respect you and pay attention to basic etiquette. In public, I will shake hands with you with a smile.

But in private, I won't even look at you, and there's nothing you can do about it.

This is the case now. Xu Xuan stopped talking and sat in his seat, not even letting Yan Yuanan enter the RV.

The situation remained at a stalemate, and Yan Yuanan's expression began to change.

"Mr. Xu, I know you are unhappy, but this matter can no longer be delayed, otherwise both Michael Entertainment and Forrest Gump may have problems. We have contacted Mr. Wei and established cooperation again, so you see..."

Xu Xuan felt very curious when he heard this. This guy was still threatening him in this way.

The meaning is very clear. If Xu Xuan does not cooperate with Hollywood, Wei Xizhen will not protect WL Film and Television Company.

But in fact, Xu Xuan understood that the most fundamental reason was not "Forrest Gump" and Michael Entertainment.

The novel Forrest Gump has been around for more than four years, and Xu Xuan has always held the copyright. No one can threaten Xu Xuan, especially after Xu Xuan announced that he is Qiao Su, and no one has tried to force him to buy or sell.

Michael Entertainment was originally intended to operate the peripheral products of "Transformers", and it has made a lot of money in the past two years.

Therefore, the ultimate goal of Hollywood and Wall Street capital is the new technology in Xu Xuan's hands!

Anyone with a little vision can see that the emergence of new technologies will save film costs and shooting cycles on a large scale.

This all costs money. Hollywood produces tens of thousands of films every year. What would it mean if the world could save more than 200%?

This is not an algorithm as simple as 2-1. It also includes labor costs, use of personal connections, special effects savings, machine savings, release cycle, etc. This is the concept of 2-1.999!

Yan Yuanan looked around and saw that some actors were looking over here, and his expression became even uglier. After all, he was an international director, wasn't he?

Xu Xuan treated him like this, he simply didn't take himself as a dish.

Especially abroad, Yan Yuanan has a more superior mood.

Therefore, standing outside the RV, Yan Yuanan said again: "Director Xu, it is basically a foregone conclusion that you are unhappy about this matter. I still hope that everyone can sit down in peace and make money together, isn't it good?"

After Xu Xuan put away the script papers, he stood up and walked to the door of the RV. He stared at Yan Yuanan for a few seconds and smiled slightly: "Get lost."
