China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 511: Huahuang’s love is a matter of course and Toronto [two-in-one]

"Brother Fan, how is the situation at home?"

"Everything is ready. The cockpit of the mecha has been adjusted. The underwater shooting equipment. Our people are also very good at it. The two sets of 3D camera units are now controlled by Liu Jun's gang of brats every day. No one can If you don’t let me move, I’ll just wait for you to come back and turn it on.”

"Oh, that's it~~~"

Sun Yi tilted his head slightly and glanced at Liu Yifei, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, pretending to be chewing an apple.

She had been on the phone for almost three minutes, and she only took a small bite of the apple in her hand.

"I can't go back for the time being, and there are still some things that I can't leave. You first call the actors to adapt to the studio location in advance, and then ask Mike to lead the people from Starry Sky Digital to help everyone adapt to the motion capture equipment and do the preparations first. , we will start filming directly when I return to China."

"Well, that's okay, but just watch the time. Don't worry about "Huan Tai". It will be available next year. You have to pay attention to the later stage of "Changkong". You must get it before the end of the year. .”

"Okay, I know."

"Well, okay, I'm going to get busy."

As soon as he hung up the phone, Sun Yi saw Liu Yifei open her mouth, "click", take a big bite, and then slurp it happily.

That look made one couldn't help but laugh inwardly.

When I met Xiong Xiaoge before, the sassy woman who could slap the wine table and shout, "I will donate all my property" disappeared without a trace, leaving only a cute little woman who wanted her lover to be by her side.

Speaking of this, Sun Yi was also shocked by Xiao Nizi's courage. She really donated 2000 million US dollars and 1.5 million yuan as she said.

Although with the help of Xiong Xiaoge, the money will be used to establish a private charity fund, but at least 5% of the income every year is invested in the charity industry, which is not a joke.

She is not one of those wealthy capitalists, she is just a small star in the entertainment industry. At present, the domestic entertainment industry is not yet flooded with capital and sky-high salaries. At this time, she has to rely on herself for every piece of money, either by working hard on the set, or in the film industry. The platform at the event site was earned bit by bit.

Liu Yifei's private charity fund will be developed simultaneously with her application for deregistration. She only retains the two-story villa where the two of them currently live, which is worth almost US$200 million, which meets the exemption amount in the deregistration clause.

As for other net worth statistics, Liu's mother has actually done it for her before. Now she only needs to wait for Xiong Xiaoge's private charity fund to go through the procedures and the IRS's review.

The IRS review does not matter. If there are any problems, they will notify them and respond within a time limit. On the contrary, it is Xiong Xiaoge’s charity fund. I hope Liu Yifei will not leave North America too far during this period, because some special assets are being liquidated and transferred. When donating, she needs to come forward.

In this way, Liu Yifei had to stay in the United States temporarily and could not go back with Sun Yi as originally planned.

Although she really wanted Sun Yi to stay with her, she never said it explicitly. Until today, Sun Yi called to postpone the work of "Huan Tai" and took the initiative to stay.

"Are you happy?" Sun Yi returned to the sofa and sat down next to Liu Yifei, asking with an inquiring look on his face.

Liu Yifei glanced at him and said nothing. She turned her head and continued eating the apple. However, the curved corners of her eyebrows had already given her away.

Sun Yi was amused.

Who has ever seen a fairy with a tough mouth, like a duck?

"Apples, are they so delicious? Give me a try too!"

"No."

Liu Yifei parted her hands and hid the apple behind her back. Then she cocked her neck and looked tit-for-tat at Sun Yi.

The straight nose was slightly wrinkled, there was an apple in his mouth, his cheeks were bulging, and he had a peerless pretty face that was stretched out, making Sun Yi laugh out loud.

"Ha ha ha ha."

"ah."

Sun Yi's ridicule made Liu Yifei realize her indecentness, and she suddenly became angry. However, in her anger, she did not forget to protect the apple in her hand, and just pushed it with her forehead.

Sun Yi tilted his head, used his shoulder to catch Xiao Nizi's Iron Head Kung Fu, and then used his body's advantage to pin her down with his backhand.

Liu Yifei was protecting the apple behind her hands, and her long legs were already crossed and she couldn't exert any strength. At this moment, she was in an extremely shameful position and was pressed by Sun Yi, as if she was bound by something, and she couldn't break free no matter what. open.

This posture showed that Sun Yi was distracted and lustful, so he couldn't help but kiss her.

At first, Xiao Nizi pretended to struggle, but after a while, her tongue was pried open, allowing Sun Yi to invade.

While Sun Yi was enjoying it, he suddenly felt something greasy slipping into his mouth and licked it subconsciously.

Um.

Still a little sweet.

Just when Sun Yi was stunned, Liu Yifei finally freed her hands to break away and stood up. She didn't even bother to put on her slippers. Pia, pia, pia ran away with her bare feet, turning around and leaving behind a string of laughter like silver bells. .

"Aren't apples delicious? Hehehehe"

Uh. Ugh~

The two stayed at home in Los Angeles for a day, and then they couldn't stay any longer, so they went out for a walk.

This visit was unexpectedly joyful.

In the United States, the two don't need to wear a three-piece set of hats, masks, and sunglasses like they do in China. Unless they meet a Chinese or an international student, few people can recognize them. Even if an American movie fan occasionally recognizes Liu Yifei, they don't. A few dared to step forward to confirm.

Let the two of them truly experience the joy of a loving couple.

We ate delicious food, went to the park, and even went to the cinema to watch "Toy Story 3" together.

Not to mention, Hollywood animated movies are really awesome. While watching them, Sun Yi was planning in his mind. When the movie industry of Starry Sky takes shape next year, we can also make our own animated movies and make Chinese animated movies.

As the two of them started to play, the whole of Los Angeles did not stop them, and they even went to Las Vegas, the entertainment capital of the world.

This year's North American box office dark horse "The Hangover" took place in this city.

As a world-renowned city centered on the gambling industry that integrates tourism, shopping, and vacation, the two of them, like other ordinary tourists, enjoyed all kinds of food and shopping crazily.

Especially in the shopping area, Xiao Nizi seems to have opened up a new world here.

This does not mean that there is something here that is not available outside, but that her state of mind has changed.

Liu Yifei also liked luxury goods before. Although she was lavish in this regard, she never felt wronged when faced with the things she liked.

But at that time, I made my own money and spent it on my own, whatever I wanted.

Things are different now, my net worth is gone, and there is no money in my pocket. There were several times when I saw something I liked, and I struggled with it for a long time. Sun Yi was a straight man, and he didn’t know why at first, so he asked, “Do you like it?”

Liu Yifei shook her head, pretending to be disgusted, and refused repeatedly, saying "I don't like it." But in her heart, she was embarrassed to spend Sun Yi's money.

Food, accommodation, etc. didn't matter, but she felt embarrassed about consuming such luxury goods. Besides, Sun Yi had bought her many gifts during the past few days.

As someone who once inspired to become an independent woman, how could she do such a thing, right?

But some things happen again and again, but they really can’t happen again.

Sun Yi is a stick, and he saw it even the third time.

This time it was a Tiffany diamond bracelet, with palm leaves forming a circle and inlaid with individual small diamonds. Even Sun Yi thought it was very eye-catching. After seeing it, Xiao Nizi couldn't even walk. Sun Yi saw it and asked, and she said she didn't like it against her will, but her coy look looked like she was pretending.

This time Sun Yi finally understood. Xiao Nizi was embarrassed because she had no money.

Laughing in his heart, he took out his card and handed it over.

"I, I don't want it."

In order to take care of Xiao Nizi's little self-esteem, Sun Yi found an excuse.

"I still owe you money, so I'll treat it as repaying you."

Liu Yifei wanted to refuse, but she felt like there was a kitten's paw in her heart, scratching and scratching until it itched. Finally, she made a decision with the corner of her mouth in her mouth for a long time, but finally couldn't hold it back.

If you pay back the money, it seems.

That makes sense!

Then he smiled, took the card, and swiped it by himself.

Until he put on the bracelet and showed off his bright moon-white wrists in front of Sun Yi unscrupulously, he was still smiling infatuatedly.

Some things are like Pandora's box, once opened, you can never take it back.

Hermès birkin bag, I like it so much, I bought it.

Bulgari gemstone earrings, are they beautiful? Buy them.

VERO MODA's trendy women's clothing, try it on and buy it.

It feels good to swipe the card at this time, and it feels good to keep swiping the card.

At first, she thought Sun Yi owed her money and had to pay it back, but later she stopped lying to herself.

Stop pretending, it’s time to show your cards, I’m going to spend my husband’s money on whatever I want, it’s only natural!

Throughout 09, it can be said that Liu Yifei was either acting on the set or making announcements. During her break in China, because of her status as a celebrity, she did not have the opportunity or conditions to shop so heartily. Now that she is accompanied by Sun Yi in the United States, it can be regarded as The shopping desire that had been accumulated for a year was completely released.

In just three days, he made hundreds of thousands of dollars. Sun Yi was stunned. For the first time, he discovered that women can be so scary.

"This is aunt's, this is uncle's, mom's is mine, mine, mine, mine. Well, this is yours!"

If John hadn't asked Sun Yi to go back to Los Angeles to talk about the North American starry sky, Xiao Nizi might still be able to go shopping.

That's it, there's still something left to be desired.

John didn't even look at him well when he saw him.

Speaking of John, we have to say that his work efficiency is indeed very high. It only took a few days to reach an intentional cooperation agreement with Netflix, which is a good start for North American Stars.

Sun Yi praised him repeatedly, but John did not take any credit. Instead, he explained that it was just a coincidence.

It turns out that Netflix is ​​also seeking opportunities for transformation at this time. It is no longer satisfied with being just a Hollywood broadcast platform. Instead, it wants to get rid of the constraints of Hollywood, launch its own content, expand its influence, and provide users with better quality services. Serve.

The largest content providers in Hollywood are the six major film and television companies. They can be said to have a monopoly on the entire film and television production in Hollywood. At this time, North American Starry Sky actively wanted Netflix to do well. It can be said that it played into their hands and gave Starry Sky a lot of money. Favorable terms.

After all, North American Starry Sky is not a pure unknown. A "Shelter" with a global box office of 300 million US dollars may be nothing in the eyes of the six major Hollywood stars, but in the eyes of Netflix, it is already a very good existence.

"Boss, Netflix is ​​very welcome to cooperate with us, and they also know you. They also invited you to shoot a film and television series for them in your spare time. The cost is negotiable within 100 million US dollars. Of course, I did not agree directly. This still needs to wait for your approval."

Sun Yi nodded. It seemed that Netflix's attitude was indeed very low and sincere. Of course, it’s not their fault. Netflix has not grown into a Netflix that can compete with the six major Hollywood companies on its own. He, the director of the Cannes Palme d’Or, is still very popular to them.

As for Netflix’s proposal, you might as well agree to them first and test the waters by making an American TV series to see how the response is.

In this way, the distribution rights of theatrical movies plus Netflix American dramas, walking on two legs, and North American Starry Sky, which do not touch the core interests of Hollywood in a short period of time, will not be targeted.

"John, we can cooperate with Netflix. They broadcast it, we produce it, and then share the profits in proportion. My bottom line is at least six levels. You go and talk to them."

"Okay, I understand. I will communicate with Netflix to confirm and try to get more shares. By the way, boss, are you interested in the Toronto Film Festival? I am planning to go there to try my luck. Let’s see if there are any good movies.”

Sun Yi did not agree immediately, but subconsciously looked back at Liu Yifei.

When I saw her pursed lips and her big bright eyes, I knew the answer in my heart.

"Okay, book two tickets and we'll go see it with you."

"Okay, boss."

The Toronto International Film Festival is one of the important film festivals in North America. Held every September in Toronto, Canada.

It is different from the three major film festivals such as Cannes Film Festival, Berlin Film Festival, and Venice Film Festival. There is no complicated screening and award process, it does not repeat the model of other film festivals, and there are no judges. Only the organizer is responsible for screening new films and never awards. At most, there will be only one live audience vote to select the top ten films of this year.

Because there are no awards, there are no conflicts of interest involved, which ensures fairness to the greatest extent and retains the original flavor of the film. It can be regarded as one of the holy places for movie fans and independent filmmakers around the world.

In recent years, with the continuous expansion of influence, the quality of the films shortlisted for the Toronto Film Festival has also become higher and higher. Since the establishment of the first Toronto International Film Festival in 1976, a total of nearly 6000 films have been presented to the world here. About 300 of them have been nominated for Oscars and won awards.

The quality of the films at the Toronto Film Festival is evident.

Because of this, it is also a world-class film trading platform. Many non-Hollywood films, or American non-commercial films, have found suitable distributors here. It is a benign platform to promote film exchange and development.

The purpose of John and Sun Yi's trip was to browse the waves here and select a few suitable films for North American Starry Sky productions.

Speaking of which, this is Liu Yifei's first time to participate in the Toronto Film Festival, and it is also Sun Yi's first time. Not to mention, the two of them are not participating in the festival as directors and actors, but more like a couple acting as ordinary movie fans. Come and participate.

Just... quite novel.
