Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Just when I made an appointment with Nicolas Sedoux, the boss of Gaumont Company, Danielle Mitterrand and his group who came to visit also arrived. @乐＠文＠小说＠说|800√∟, ..

The first lady of France is not a simple person. After Nazi Germany occupied most of France in the 1940s, at the age of 17, she joined the French resistance organization at the time as a nurse and was awarded the War of Resistance Medal after the end of World War II. Became the youngest heroine in France at that time.

It was at that time that Danielle met the young Francois Mitterrand.

When her husband won the French presidential election last year, Danielle's performance was different from that of the traditional French first lady. She did not live a pampered life in the Elysee Palace because of this, but actively participated in various activities. Social activities can be said to be in the limelight.

After the two parties had a pleasant exchange of pleasantries, the event entered the visiting session. Tang Huan soon discovered what is called monkey eating mahua - full of twists, and his carefully prepared lecture notes on advanced technology were completely useless.

For example, while Tang Huan painstakingly introduced the robots on the production line, Danielle asked a lot of questions about the working conditions in the factory.

For another example, when Tang Huan patiently explained that the just-in-time production method is, Danielle began to ask the workers about their overtime wages.

It was very embarrassing to flirt with the blind. Tang Huan was naturally very annoyed. While cursing his subordinates for not being able to collect intelligence, he couldn't help complaining about Danielle's self-centered and self-centered way of talking.

So, Tang Huan began to describe how factory automation can help him reduce labor costs.

obvious. This topic made Danielle a little unhappy. Asked one after another: Is the work of the workers very heavy?. How much vacation time do they have?

Tang Huan replied in Chinese, Since you are so interested in workers' welfare, you are welcome to work here anytime.

Although both parties were equipped with translators, because Tang Huan had been communicating directly in French before, the translators basically became decorations.

Now that Tang Huan came up with a sentence in Chinese out of the blue, Danielle was immediately puzzled.

Ma'am, Tang just said, thank you for your visit and your interest in the factory. Christina, who had already figured out Tang Huan's temper, had already seen that her man was angry, and quickly opened her mouth to mediate.

then,

The female ship queen urged Tang Huan with a smile in her eyes, Don't you have important things to do, then hurry up, just leave it to me here.

Tang Huan rubbed his nose and nodded in embarrassment. He said before that Christina couldn't do this kind of technical work. But now it seems that the first lady of France doesn't care about advancement at all. Purely asking for trouble.

After leaving the factory, Tang Huan's depression finally eased a bit. He checked the itinerary and found that Celine Dion was in Paris today, so he decided to give her a surprise and greet her in person.

There was no unexpected situation this time. Celine Dion, who was accompanied by her mother, immediately cheered and jumped up when she saw Tang Huan.

Up to now, Celine Dion has been active in the French music scene in Quebec, Canada for nearly two years. Compared to her age of 14, her achievements are amazing.

Because Tang Huan didn't let Celine Dion neglect her studies, her usual time was still very tense, and she couldn't relax even in the summer vacation. There were two activities waiting for the little girl.

First cameo and interlude singing in the movie First Contact 2, and then the Yamaha Singing Contest in Tokyo, Japan.

It can be said that these two activities are of great significance to the current Celine Dion.

After First Contact was released at the end of 1980, it achieved great commercial success in France and even Western Europe, and also received good reviews.

Naturally, Gaumont Company will not waste this cash cow, and started filming the second part of First Contact this year.

In the original time and space, First Contact 2 was also a great success, so Sophie Marceau won the Most Promising Female Artist Cesar Award in 1983.

For such a movie that is bound to gain both fame and fortune, Tang Huan of course wants to let his carefully cultivated future French music queen take this ride.

In this way, Celine Dion's popularity will move from Quebec, Canada, the global second-language region, to France, the No. 1 central region, and will spread to the whole of Western Europe.

As for the Yamaha Singing Contest in Tokyo, Japan, it is a very rare worldwide juvenile singing competition sponsored by a well-known commercial company. If Celine Dion can achieve good results, it will benefit a lot.

Tang Huan had already explained these arrangements to Celine Dion, her mother, and the agent, so this small team had already made full preparations.

In this way, after a short rest, Tang Huan brought Celine Dion to director Claude Binodeau, Celine has experience in filming commercials and performing on stage, so it shouldn't be a problem to play a guest role. The key is to showcase her musical talent.

Claude Binoduo understood the point of Tang Huan's words, so he began to communicate with Celine Dion in a pleasant manner.

Some seedlings are different from the very beginning. After seeing the talents of Celine Dion, the owner of Gaumont Company, Nicholas Sedoux, smiled jealously: Don, you already have Sophie Marceau. Tomorrow's star, and now there is another girl with such an outstanding musical talent, the achievements in discovering talents are really enviable.

After Gaumont company missed Sophie Marceau, it has been regretting it. Although Christina signed a three-film contract for Sophie Marceau and Gaumont Company, it could not alleviate the other party's resentment.

In order not to irritate Nicholas Sedoux, Tang Huan just laughed and turned to talk about the cooperation of DreamWorks' Chinese-language film in France.

As long as you are mentally prepared for niche film positioning, it will be easy. After all, in addition to cultural differences, you must also take into account the unique atmosphere that France has always protected its own films. Nicholas Seydoux spoke very frankly.

For being able to cooperate with Tang Huan. He couldn't ask for more. In addition to being able to more easily sell Gaumont films to the United States, Gein took this opportunity. There are also unexpected gains in the Far East, such as First Contact, which earned more than 11 million Taiwan dollars at the box office in Taiwan.

The movie Fang Shiyu is novel enough, and it should be attractive enough. However, I personally think that perhaps an oriental kung fu movie with a modern background may be better. Nicholas Seydoux suggested thoughtfully.

DreamWorks' film types certainly don't stop there. Tang Huan laughed confidently.

I heard. You and Warner each filmed a 007 film, and are you in the ring? Nicholas Seydoux was obviously very interested in the intrigue in Hollywood, and soon brought the topic to this aspect on purpose.

It can't be helped. By mistake, Warner and I have a fierce competition of interests in video games and movies at the same time. Tang Huan shook his head indifferently.

This is indeed the case. The grievances between Steve Ross and Tang Huan have been put on the table without any scruples.

United Artists has just announced that the next 007 movie Octopus Girl will receive a record investment of 35 million US dollars. Warner responded tit-for-tat, and the investment in Cruise Missile was 40 million US dollars.

Tang Huan who heard the news. The immediate reaction was to sneer with disdain, Steve Ross, you'll be hooked if you accept the trick!

The media who don't know what's going on are naturally happy to hear this kind of fighting scene, but the executors of the specific affairs feel the pressure, and they are very serious in doing things.

Andy Albert won Roger Moore's two contracts to continue to star in 007 with a salary of 4 million US dollars and 5 million US dollars respectively.

However, Octopus Girl still can't start filming, because of the Bond girl problem, new differences have begun to arise again.

The producer - Albert Broccoli believes that in order to fight against Cruise Missile, it is not enough for James Bond to continue to play Roger Moore, and the role of the Bond girl should also have weight.

Previously, fayedunaway——Faye Dunaway's salary was considered too high, but after the investment increased, this worry was no longer necessary.

As for Monica Bellucci, whom Tang Huan named and demanded to praise, he was simply ignored by these guys intentionally or unintentionally. Gein, not to mention his unknown origin, was still too young a rookie. The gap in the setting of Claw Girl is too big, and it is not even comparable to the maudadams who once appeared in Golden Robber-Mo Adams.

Andy Albert, who knew Tang Huan's intentions well, of course couldn't agree, thinking that this was not a slap in the face of the boss, and the candidate for the role had been secretly decided even the year before last.

But Albert Broccoli's insistence also had sufficient reasons, so he had to make a final decision in front of Tang Huan.

Andy Albert was in the lead, and met Tang Huan alone first, and reported the information he had summarized, I think the reason why Albert Broccoli is so stubborn is largely because he is I want to get the endorsement from you that 'If the film business performance is not good, you can't be held accountable'.

I understand what you mean. Tang Huan nodded slightly understandingly, I will try my best to persuade people with reason instead of overwhelming them with power, so as not to intensify the conflict. After all, if everyone is working while having an awkward situation, No matter how much money is invested, it will get twice the result with half the effort.”

What a blessing to be able to serve such an understanding boss.

Andy Albert, who felt a sense of relief in his heart, inquired curiously: Now the media thinks that, compared to e.t. The performance of the summer file was too mediocre, so it was eager to use big productions to restore the decline. Many people said that Warner paid a price of 30 million US dollars in order to buy the video game adaptation authorization of e.t. Aliens. This is true Is it?

To be precise, it is 32 million US dollars. Tang Huan replied with a smile.

So willing? Back then, the filming budget of E.T. Alien did not exceed 12 million US dollars. Andy Albert gasped.

Actually, the pressure is on Warner's side. You don't need to be so nervous, just treat it as normal work. Tang Huan couldn't say anything about the serial plot, so he could only comfort his confidants in a disguised form.

This is true, a video game with a licensing fee of 32 million U.S. dollars, and a movie with an investment budget of 40 million U.S. dollars. The pressure to recover the cost alone can be prohibitive.

After negotiating with Andy Albert, the producer of 007 Albert Broccoli and the director of Octopus - John Glenn also rushed from London, England to Paris, France.

After entertaining them with a relaxed demeanor, Tang Huan took out several sports newspapers including Gazzetta dello Sport and pushed them to these people.

It turned out that the above list coincidentally listed several important recent developments in the field of football - the best player in this year's World Cup in Spain, Paolo Rossi, transferred from Juventus to Milan, which was once again relegated to the second division.

Although it is not clear how much the transaction amount is, it can be seen from the fact that Juventus signed the French star Platini without blinking, that Juventus should have made a lot of money.

Do you know who owns the Milan Club now? The Monica Bellucci I recommend to you is the newcomer that the agency is going to favor. The popularity of the Bond girl actors you are concerned about is actually not affected at all. influences.

After Tang Huan leisurely introduced the background of Monica Bellucci, he snapped his fingers, Monica Bellucci is indeed young enough to make people suspicious, but an 18-year-old Bond girl— —Isn’t the youngest Bond girl in history a gimmick in itself?”

Albert Broccoli is not stupid either. He saw from Tang Huan's eyes that there is no doubt that the role of a Bond girl belongs to a vase after all, so he might as well follow the boss's wishes. Anyway, success or failure has already been achieved. The endorsement of the attribution of responsibility, I will not become a sinner.

Seeing that Albert Broccoli approved this decision, Tang Huan continued: I hope that the filming process of The Octopus Girl can be special, that is, a small film can be produced every month to show the movie characteristics.

Is it to put pressure on Warner and Cruise Missile? Albert Broccoli asked bluntly.

Indeed. Tang Huan admitted frankly. (To be continued..)
