Chapter 450 "Barbie"
night.
The banquet was held at Harvey's villa.
Sure enough, as Xu Jia expected, this banquet was not held for him, but already existed. He just borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha.
The guests were also very curious about this strange oriental face that suddenly appeared.
Some people even think that Xu Jia is an Asian actor who wants to come to Hollywood.
"Sorry, I don't really need this."
Xu Jia pushed away the room card handed over by a woman. This was not bad. There was a man who wanted to strike up a conversation just now, but he scolded him and left.
I originally thought that there would be at least a few familiar faces at this banquet, but unexpectedly, I looked around and saw that they were all unfamiliar faces.
It can only be said that Harvey is indeed not as powerful as before, and the real big names will not come here at all.
Even if people from Warner participated, the two parties had no intention of communicating. After all, not everyone thought that it was a good thing for their company to cooperate with the Chinese people.
In other words, no company is monolithic, not even Jiaxing.
It's just that Xu Jia stood high enough. In fact, he had heard a little bit about the competition between the old man's faction headed by Zeng Jia and the newcomers' faction headed by Yang Tianzhen and assisted by Cai Yinong in Jiaxing.
Xu Jia knew very well that he had found himself in such a deserted situation.
Harvey must be aware of it, and he might even be the one causing the obstruction.
After all, if you don't let yourself feel the coldness of Hollywood, how can you compare Harvey's warmth?
But what Harvey got wrong was that unlike other Chinese filmmakers, Xu Jia had no intention of integrating into Hollywood.
The Chinese film market has such huge potential, but I haven’t tapped into it yet, so I have no energy to focus on it outside.
Not to mention that people who leave their hometowns are cheap. It is not that simple for Americans to come to China to develop. Why should they abandon their local advantages and go overseas to develop? What is the purpose?
Thinking of this, Xu Jia planned to turn around and leave. There was nothing worth staying here.
Unexpectedly, after turning around, he caught a glimpse of golden hair from the corner of his eye and stopped him in his tracks.
There seems to be a new discovery.
"Hello, I'm producer Margot Robbie. I have a new project in hand. Do you want to chat?" Margot Robbie took the initiative to communicate with others.
It's a pity that when the other party heard this name, he immediately shook his head and avoided it like a snake or a scorpion.
They are all unfamiliar with Harley Quinn.
If it was just for filming, they would still welcome it, but everyone in the industry knew about the projects Margot Robbie was working on.
They didn't think they could take on a project that even Suoni had given up on.
Not to mention that after understanding the content of the script, I just think this woman is crazy.
Although everyone claims to support feminism, but making a feminist movie... let's forget it.
Snapped.
A hand tapped Margot Robbie on the shoulder.
The latter turned around and saw the unfamiliar Eastern faces at the banquet.
"Sorry, no autograph, no photo." Margot Robbie said simply.
She knew that Harley Quinn in "Suicide Squad", which she starred in, was very famous in China, so it would be a different time, but at this time, she was really not in the mood.
"You misunderstood. I'm just more interested in the project you're working on. You may not know me, but you should have heard of Warner. Another partner of Warner's "The Meg" is me." Xu Jia explained .
I have to say that Warner's reputation is quite useful at critical moments.
At least after listening to it, Margot Robbie obviously respects Xu Jia's attitude a lot.
"Sorry, I thought you were an actor. After all, you look so young and charming." Margot Robbie used a joke to cover up her embarrassment.
Who says that Westerners don't understand the world, especially Hollywood actresses? Without some emotional intelligence, they can't get into positions.
Those who are lucky and stupid can be found in the entertainment industry in various countries.
"But one thing I want to tell you in advance is that the main market for my project is North America, and it may be difficult for Asian film companies to provide corresponding conditions." Margot Robbie said.
Although she put Xu Jia on the same level as someone she could communicate with, she still didn't think the other person could cooperate with her on the project in hand.
Xu Jia shrugged his shoulders: "In a capital country, I think all conditions are inseparable from one benchmark, and that is money. It just so happens that I am a little rich."
"If you know me well, you will know that I am a shareholder of Wanda Pictures. You can check out Wanda, a Chinese company. It may be more capable in Hollywood than 99% of the people here."
He rarely shows off his wealth directly, but when facing foreigners who are unfamiliar with him, nothing seems to be a better way to directly demonstrate his strength than by showing off his wealth.
But speaking of it, I also borrowed the momentum of Warner and Wanda.
My heart, which was a little swollen at first, became quiet again. I am not a good person in my home, and no matter how evil I am, I am still a king of the mountain.
No matter what, Jiaxing has to reach the status of Jiahe before it can have a little confidence to expand.
"Oh, Wanda, I've heard about it. It seems that you are indeed not an ordinary film businessman."
Margot Robbie finally took Xu Jia seriously and included him in the cooperation options. Wanda was really no stranger to her.
After all, it is a group that is waving banknotes to buy and buy in North America, and its financial resources are still astonishing.
"The project I'm working on is called "Barbie." I was at Soni's place before. I'm currently negotiating with Mattel to get the filming rights for the film. I don't know if you can accept this type of movie. The whole movie is about women. Focusing on perspective, I plan to create a truly feminist world, but maybe many things in it will make you feel uncomfortable..."
Margot Robbie may have hit too many walls, and her words are full of pessimism.
But when these words fell in Xu Jia's ears, the corners of his mouth turned up even more.
He is no stranger to this movie at all. In his previous life, "Barbie" was not only unbeatable in North America, but also set off a wave of female movie-watching in the global market.
Along with those comic book series such as "Black Panther 2" and "Spider-Man", "Barbie" is one of the few North American film projects that Xu Jia has the opportunity to participate in.
And because of the relationship between type and content, it naturally has a layer of protection.
"I know more about this project than you think. It seems that Amy Schumer was cast as the lead actor on Soni's side at the beginning, but the two couldn't reach an agreement on creation, so the project was abandoned again, right?"
Xu Jia met Margot Robbie's surprised look and said calmly: "The Meg that I collaborated with Warner Bros. was picked up again after Disney gave up on it. I have sufficient experience in this regard. As for you, When it comes to creating a truly feminist world, I don’t care whether I can accept it or not. You don’t take pictures for me, but for those who are willing to pay to see them. Take pictures of whatever makes them happy.”
As long as it can help you make money, no matter how uncomfortable things are, they can become pleasing to the eye.
