After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

"The story background of this movie was designed by me based on the book of Master Huanzhu, The Legend of Shushan Swordsman."

Tsui Hark's face began to reveal an expression of memory.

"From my childhood, when I first came into contact with the storybook, I was attracted by the Legend of Shushan Swordsman."

"After becoming a director, it has always been my dream to put it on the big screen."

"In 83, I filmed The Legend of Shushan Swordsman."

"To tell you the truth, I made a small profit at the time, and my reputation was pretty good."

"However, due to the development of film technology, I am not very satisfied with this film."

"It just so happened that director Steve Kevin went to Hong Kong to recruit dragon and tiger martial arts masters. He asked Jackie Chan to bring me a message and invited me to come to the United States to make a movie, and I came..."

Tsui Hark told the ambassador about the origin of Shushan, his relationship with Shushan, and the idea of ​​this movie.

Ambassador Chen He flipped through the script and carefully observed the stories in the script.

After viewing the entire Shu Mountain, he raised his head and said:

"Do you know what kind of person Steve Kevin is? Also, what is his attitude towards the mainland?"

After reading the script, he knew that this is a standard script for a typical American to save the world.

It just blends into the background that Tsui Hark said.

And this movie was released in the United States, so there is actually no problem with the setting of Americans saving the world.

However, Chen He was afraid that it would be bad if some inappropriate content appeared when it was released.

Therefore, he needs to get Steve Kevin's attitude from Tsui Hark's mouth.

"I think director Kevin is a very talented person. At the same time, he loves mainland culture very much and has a deep understanding of mainland culture."

"As soon as we met, he exchanged Taoist culture with me, and his Chinese is also very good."

Lu He immediately nodded repeatedly.

A person who can understand Chinese culture to this extent is either a professional or this, then he really loves Chinese culture.

Such a person should not produce content that is unfavorable to China.

Chen He initially defined Kevin in his mind.

Subsequently, Tsui Hark once again increased the chips.

This is what Kevin told him. If there is a problem with visa approval and he is approached by important people, he will use it as a bargaining chip.

"Mr. Ambassador, do you know about Steve Kevin's status in Hollywood?"

The ambassador shook his head.

As an ambassador, his status meant that he would not go to the cinema to watch American movies, although he knew Steve Kevin from reading newspapers.

But he has no specific knowledge of this name.

I only know that he is a great director.

"The movies he made last year grossed more than a billion dollars."

"From his debut to the present, the total movie box office created is more than 20 billion US dollars."

Chen He was shocked.

More than 20 billion US dollars is not a small amount anywhere.

There is a full one-fiftieth of China's foreign exchange reserves.

"The Pirates of the Caribbean he filmed, just because of the selection of the scene, created a scenic spot that Americans often go to."

"It is now able to create tens of millions of dollars in the economy every year, and it also affects the livelihood of hundreds of people."

Chen He keenly grasped the point, and couldn't help asking:

"You mean, if there are no accidents, Shushan can also create such a scenic spot to attract Americans to travel?"

Tsui Hark nodded.

"I think that's a very likely thing to happen."

Chen He's heart was moved immediately.

From this point of view, it seems that this movie can be a good opportunity to show Americans the beauty of the land of China.

In addition to cultural output, it seems to be a good thing to be able to drive the local economy.

But it's best to report this kind of thing upwards.

After all, this is not a few foreigners, but a bunch of foreigners.

If some spies get involved, it will be troublesome.

After pondering for a while, after some careful thinking, Chen He raised his head and said:

"Well, come back in three days, and I'll give you a definite answer."

Tsui Hark nodded to express his understanding.

A crew of hundreds of people is indeed prone to other situations, and it should take time to investigate.

Anyway, not all the investment is in place now, and the hero and heroine are still undecided.

As for the supporting roles, Tsui Hark sent invitations to several old acquaintances in Hong Kong.

In a Hollywood movie with this level of investment, playing a supporting role is not considered a loss for them.

...

On the other hand, the Titanic crew had a rare break.

Little Plum Leonardo and his friend, Tobey Maguire had a rare meeting, and the two came to a hot girl restaurant together.

From the name, you can see the characteristics of this restaurant.

The waiters in the restaurant are all young and beautiful girls.

They wander in this restaurant, relying on their youth to earn a lot of tips. As for the more in-depth content, they need to pay to watch and consult.

But that's all for the night.

Looking at Leonardo who kept turning his eyes and looking at different waiters, Tobey Maguire couldn't help flashing a trace of envy in his eyes.

Unlike the smooth sailing of good friends, Tobey Maguire, since he entered the showbiz in 1992, has been mixed in low-budget movies and movies with little commercial taste.

But why doesn't he want to star in a commercial blockbuster? There is no way, no chance.

"Leonardo, I really envy you."

Thomas Maguire couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Leonardo showed a smirk on his face, which attracted countless waiters to look at him, but Leonardo didn't look at those girls.

Instead stare at Tobey Maguire.

With the relationship between them, Leonardo will definitely not enjoy all the opportunities alone.

But today, he has a good opportunity to tell his best friend.

"Maguire, do you know Steve Kevin?"

"Of course, he is the most popular director in Hollywood. Every movie of his can make many people famous. It would be great if I could act in his movie."

Maguire spoke.

Leonardo smiled:

"I guess we have no chance to act in a movie directed by Steve Kevin, but now we have a chance to act in a movie he invested in."

After all, there was an expression on his face that you understand.

Maguire touched his wallet, and then said with a painful face:

"I invite you tonight, Bao Shuang."

Only then did Leonardo show a satisfied expression on his face, looked around, and said with a secret look:

"I also learned from the producer that it seems that director Steve Kevin is about to start shooting a big production with a production cost of 6000 million US dollars."

"But for this movie, he didn't act as a director, but as a producer."

"Currently, the male and female lead actors have not been decided. You can go to Chenxi Film Company for an interview."

Chapter 177 Gaining the Greatest Advantage of the Male Lead in Shushan

On Tobey Maguire's face, there was no happy expression as Leonardo expected.

I saw Tobey Maguire, with an unconfident expression:

"Do you think I have this chance?"

"Although this movie is not directed by Steve Kevin, it is also produced by him, and the investment is as high as 6000 million U.S. dollars."

"I····"

In Hollywood, there are not too many young actors like Tobey Maguire.

The agent behind him can't give him too many movie resources.

If he wants to compete for such a movie, he needs to face the competition of countless actors who are similar to him. The success rate can be imagined.

Leonardo silently took out a vernacular version of Shushan Swordsman from his arms, and said with a smile:

"I know a little bit of information. The movie Shushan is based on a novel."

"The biggest problem is that this is a Chinese novel."

"Whether it's asking a translator to read it to you, or what to do, as long as you can get a general understanding of the story inside, I believe you will definitely be able to get this opportunity."

Tobey Maguire took over this bible-like novel with a firm look on his face.

It is very difficult to encounter this kind of opportunity once in life, and he must not miss it.

Leonardo, the opportunity has been delivered to his mouth, he just needs to make the last effort.

Looking at Leonardo who helped him so much, Tobey Maguire was ready to bleed heavily, saying:

"Go and shout, as many as you want today."

"Then I'm welcome."

Leonardo said with a smirk, and waved at the most beautiful hot girls in several restaurants at the same time, and several hot girls who had already taken a fancy to him quickly approached.

It has to be said that in this kind of place, Leonardo's appearance is simply killer.

And this kind of thing that you like and I want is not a black spot in the national conditions of the United States. After all, as long as you are not married, Americans have enough freedom.

...........

"Boss, here we are."

Chen Zhiyun looked at the place, and said to Steve Kevin who was resting with his eyes closed in the back seat.

"Ah."

Kevin rubbed his temples to relieve his drowsiness, then opened the door and looked at Marvel's company building.

The main body of Marvel is a comic company, and the rented office is a small five-story office building.

It's nothing compared to those tall office buildings.

No way, who makes it difficult for Marvel to make a profit now.

Last year, Marvel lost 2000 million US dollars as a whole, and its cash flow was almost cut off.

Fortunately, Kevin allocated 2000 million US dollars from Chenxi Films, which maintained the normal operation of Marvel.

With two bodyguards, Kevin walked towards the Marvel Company, and after a while, he came to the fifth floor.

As soon as he entered the office area, Kevin heard the editors' heated discussions.

"This Chinese superhero should have a separate background."

"No, I think he can be combined with the original story background, so that this Chinese superhero can be welcomed by people as quickly as possible with the help of the charm of other characters."
