Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 371 Still That Paper

Although Langmeyer couldn't figure out why Lin Daoqiu wanted to find Universal, he still had a lot of interest in this meeting.

After Fox bought the copyright of "Mission Impossible", it is said that Alan Ryder Jr. is gearing up to show his talents in this action movie.

I am afraid that in the next few years, the "Mission Impossible" series will shine in Hollywood.

Although action movies are not uncommon in Hollywood, there are really only a handful of them that are as good as "Mission Impossible", or even none at all.

As long as Alan Ryder Jr. isn't being silly, a Mission: Impossible sequel every year is enough to keep them profitable.

For Fox's good luck, Langmeyer can only envy, because even if Lin Daoqiu approached him at that time, Universal would not spend [-] million US dollars to buy the copyright of "Mission Impossible".

After all, Universal Pictures is now a film company that mainly produces TV programs, so it is naturally impossible for them to spend a lot of money on investing in movies.

The current business strategy of Universal Pictures is also very simple, which is to cooperate with excellent producers and companies.

And an excellent producer like Lin Daoqiu is Universal Pictures' favorite.

…………

"You should bring the script this time, right?"

The next day, after arriving at Universal Studios, before they went upstairs, Kars wanted to find out whether Lin Daoqiu had brought the script this time.

He didn't want to be in the same situation as the last time he met Barry Diller.

At that time, Lin Daoqiu only took out a piece of paper and handed it to Barry Diller. Kars almost went crazy when he saw that scene. It was definitely one of the most shocking things he had ever encountered in his life.

"Don't worry, I have a hunch that today will be successful."

Lin Daoqiu patted Kars on the shoulder, but he didn't answer the other party's question directly, which made Kars very worried.

After watching Lin Daoqiu for more than ten seconds, Kars finally sighed, and then turned around and entered Universal Pictures with Lin Daoqiu.

Compared with Barry Diller's office, Langmeyer's office is almost half the size. From this point of view, Langmeyer and Barry Diller are not the same type of people.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lin, congratulations on winning last year's box office champion."

Langmeyer took the initiative to walk to the door to greet Lin Daoqiu, which surprised Karls a little.

"Mr. Langmeyer is being polite. I'm just lucky."

After the two shook hands, Langmeyer invited Lin Daoqiu and Kars to sit on the sofa.

After the secretary poured three cups of coffee and put them on the tea table, she backed out.

"I've seen Mr. Lin's movie, and it's really well done. Little Alan Ryder can be said to have gotten a big deal this time, at least in the genre of action movies. I'm afraid no company has been able to Compete with him."

It seems that Langmeyer admires Lin Daoqiu's movie very much, but it's a pity that Lin Daoqiu came to him this time to talk about an action movie, which may disappoint Langmeyer.

"Action movies are just one genre, and with so many talents in Hollywood, maybe there will be better action movies than "Mission Impossible" in the past two years."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, he himself does not think that in a few years, someone will be able to make an action movie better than "Mission Impossible".

Even after Alan Ryder Jr. bought the copyright of "Mission Impossible", Lin Daoqiu doubted whether Fox could make a movie of the same quality.

But now that the copyright has been sold, he should not worry about these things, and Lin Daoqiu can only watch as a bystander.

"Even if there is such a person, it is estimated that only Mr. Lin can do it. Although I don't know what little Alan Ryder thinks, but if it were me, I would definitely invite Mr. Lin to the sequel of "Mission Impossible" shoot."

Lang Mayer's words were almost enough to make people blush. Lin Daoqiu took the initiative to meet him today, but now Lin Daoqiu felt that he was almost flattered by Lang Mayer's compliments.

In order to allow the conversation to proceed smoothly, Lin Daoqiu had to stop this topic quickly.

"Actually, I came to see Mr. Langmeyer today because I want to cooperate with Universal. I will produce a movie and give it to Universal to help me distribute it."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, it seemed that Lang Mayer was not surprised, because before Lin Daoqiu came, he had already guessed that the other party came to him for this reason.

"It's one of my biggest wishes to be able to work with Mr. Lin, but I didn't expect it to come true so soon. It's really great."

Although I don't know whether what Langmeyer said is true or not, but seeing his sincerity, it is difficult to make people feel that he is lying.

"Mr. Langmeyer, don't worry, maybe you can wait for me to finish first."

Lin Daoqiu suddenly vaccinated Langmeyer, and the other party was inexplicable.

But Langmeyer immediately reacted, he had already realized that the conditions that Lin Daoqiu would raise next should be difficult for people to accept, otherwise he would not have said such destructive words.

"Please tell me, Mr. Lin."

Langmeyer wanted to hear what conditions Lin Daoqiu would offer.

Lin Daoqiu nodded first, then took out a folded paper from his pocket again, unfolded it and put it on the table.

Kars on the side once again covered his face with his hands. He didn't know what Lin Daoqiu was thinking, and why he did it again.

However, with previous lessons learned, this time Kars was able to see the paper better than when he first saw it.

"This is the script of "Home Alone", and it is also the film I am looking for Universal to cooperate with this time."

After hearing Lin Daoqiu's words, Langmeyer opened his mouth unconsciously in surprise.

A piece of paper turned out to be the script of a movie. I'm afraid no one would believe it, but Lin Daoqiu actually did it.

"You are the second person to see this paper, the first being Mr. Barry from Paramount."

Langmeyer heard Barry Diller's name before he stretched out his hand. Only then did he know that Lin Daoqiu and the others were looking for Paramount instead of Universal.

You must know that this way of negotiating is very bad. In fact, Lin Daoqiu didn't say anything at all, or said something else, but he just chose the most wrong way.

"If it was someone else, I'm afraid I have invited him out by now, but Mr. Lin is an exception."

After Langmeyer finished speaking, he reached out and took the paper that Lin Daoqiu put on the table, and then looked down carefully.

This piece of paper is the same piece of paper that Lin Daoqiu gave Barry Diller before, on which was written a brief plot of "Home Alone".

In fact, there are not many words on this piece of paper, and you can basically read it in less than 1 minute, but the strange thing is that Langmeyer stared at this piece of paper for 2 minutes without any response, which is very strange .
