The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 489 "Cannonball Car"

After sitting for a while, the reporter specially invited by 20th Century Fox also arrived, and happened to do an interview for the four of them, which was going to be published in the newspaper later.Of course, this kind of interview is an advertisement, and it needs to be paid by 20th Century Fox.

However, after routine interviews with Hong Jingbao and the other four, the reporters were more interested in Xu Guanwu, who was making soy sauce, and surrounded him together.

Hong Jingbao's movie has not yet been released, so in the eyes of reporters, they are no different from passers-by.But Xu Guanwu is different. The well-known filmmaker in Hollywood has a net worth of billions of dollars and has never failed in investment. He has become one of the most famous investors in Hollywood.

At the same time, he has not appeared in Hollywood for two consecutive years, but the works invested by him have achieved good results one after another, which makes the media reporters scratch their heads. Ken let go of this opportunity.

Hong Jingbao and the others looked enviously at Xu Guanwu being surrounded by a group of reporters. Among them were several reporters who were all hot and big girls, which made the four of them salivate, especially in order to interview Xu Guanwu. It was about to stick to his body, and the two hemispheres on his chest rubbed against each other, making the four of them almost spurt blood when they looked at it.

However, Xu Guanwu was relatively calm. The blond girl with big boobs was nothing to him, and he maliciously guessed that she had either taken hormones or had silicone pads to grow so big.

Originally, he didn't want to be interviewed by these reporters, but he could play a big role and refuse to be interviewed. Anyway, those reporters would have nothing to do with him.But if Hong Jingbao and others were implicated because of this, and these reporters went back and wrote scribbles, then the matter would be a big deal because of it.

Therefore, Xu Guanwu had no choice but to put on a cooperative attitude, answering the reporter's questions as soon as he could answer them, and fooling around if he couldn't answer them. Mianzhang is so good at practice, as long as he doesn't want to answer the question, no one can answer it.And what he said also brought Hong Jingbao and the others inside and out, and going around could always bring the topic to them, which also increased the exposure of Hong Jingbao and the others a lot.

After the media interview, Xu Guanwu couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief, "These reporters are like wild wolves, planning to eat me alive?"

"We don't know how much we envy you, Mr. Xu. It's something to be proud of being interviewed by so many reporters." Cheng Long smiled enviously.

"Aaron, don't worry, you will have such a day soon." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "When the time comes, don't cry and say you can't stand it."

"How could it be? I wish they would all come to interview me." Cheng Long said with a smile.

"Stanley, you haven't appeared in Hollywood for two years. I didn't expect you to be so popular once you appeared. We are really envious." David said with a smile.

"Why, are you and Richard afraid that there will be no reporters?" Xu Guanwu couldn't help asking.

"That's not true, but if we retire for two years, I'm afraid we won't be as popular as you when we come out." Richard also said enviously.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help but nodded when he heard what they said. It is true that Hollywood is a place where people take their tea to cool down. Even before many people leave, the tea is already poured out.It's useless to talk about human feelings in Hollywood. It doesn't matter if you have made countless blockbuster films before, if you make the company suffer losses, you will be thrown away like a rag, without even a place to reason.

"By the way, how is the scene I entrusted you to shoot when I came last time?" Xu Guanwu asked, "Have you already started preparations?"

"Well, the filming of "Friday NO.13" has already started, and it is expected to be released on Halloween. And "The Shining" is also under intense preparation, and the lead actor Jack Nicholson is still filming another film, so we are now Still waiting for his schedule." David explained, "In addition, the cast of "Cannonball Speed" has been preliminarily determined, and I think it should officially start filming this summer vacation, and it will be released during the summer vacation next year."

"Well, I want to add a few characters to the movie "Cannonball Run". You ask the screenwriter to revise the script a little bit." Xu Guanwu thought for a while and said.

"Add a role?!" Richard was taken aback, "We have already decided on the leading role, and we have already signed the contract. If we recklessly tear up the contract, we will lose a lot of money."

"Well, it's not the protagonist, but if it is an important character next to the protagonist." Xu Guanwu thought for a while and said, "And these characters must be outstanding."

"Could it be that the people you want to add are these few people you brought?" David guessed, ""Cannonball Run" is a comedy movie with a gathering of stars. Look at their performance."

"Well, their performance will definitely be very good." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, "In short, I want these three people to join the show "Cannonball Speed", and you can help me arrange it."

"Okay." Richard nodded and said, since Xu Guanwu is an investor, his voice is naturally the loudest. Now it is just adding three characters, which basically does not affect the plot of the story.

The three of Hong Jingbao heard that Xu Guanwu seemed to have mentioned their names, but they didn't know what they were talking about, so they couldn't help but stood there anxiously, regretting that they should have learned more English.

After Xu Guanwu finished chatting with Richard and the others, and then took Hong Jingbao and the other four to see Lei Shidong, Cheng Long couldn't help asking Xu Guanwu, "Mr. Xu, what were you talking about just now?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I won a role in a certain movie for the three of you brothers." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

"In a Hollywood movie?!" Hong Jingbao asked with wide eyes in disbelief.

Xu Guanwu nodded, "It probably started during the summer vacation, and your roles are considered important."

"Really?! Wow! Thank you, Mr. Xu! Thank you, Mr. Xu!" Cheng Long couldn't help but bowed to Xu Guanwu.

Yuan Biao and Hong Jingbao were equally happy, grinning up to their ears.

Although Di Wei on the side was also happy for Brother Sanmao, he was also envious in his heart.

Seeing the expression on his face, Xu Guanwu couldn't help but sighed, it wasn't that he didn't want to promote Di Wei, it's just that although he was good at martial arts, his acting skills were actually very mediocre, which is also a common problem among Hong Kong martial arts actors.Even Li Lianjie, who is known as the Kung Fu Emperor, actually has a rather low level of acting skills.

However, action actors in Europe and the United States also require acting skills. Not to mention Stallone, who has won the honor of Oscar winner, Arnold Schwarzenegger's acting skills in "Terminator" are also well-known. It is hard to imagine that There is another person who can so perfectly interpret the brutal robot killer as T800.And his funny performance in "Dragon Brother and Mouse Brother" also greatly increased his reputation, proving that he is not just good at being cool.

As for Bruce Willis, he is an old actor who can act. McClane in "Die Hard" is definitely a classic character in the history of Hollywood movies, and Bruce Willis also played the same role. A lot of comedy movies, and the performance in them is also very good.

Of course, if Di Wei just wants to be a second- and third-tier actor in Hollywood, he can indeed get along with his good skills, but it will be even more difficult if he wants to become popular.

"Ah Wei, don't be discouraged. After you go back, you can polish your acting skills. When you have honed your acting skills, I will also bring you into Hollywood." Xu Guanwu patted Di Wei on the shoulder and said.

Di Wei was so moved that he couldn't speak. With Xu Guanwu's current status, being able to say these words to him really touched him.Xu Guanwu is the big boss of the Xu family, the richest entertainment tycoon in Hong Kong, and to put it bluntly, he is just a part-time worker.Whether it is life or death is just a matter of other people's words, and I have no power to resist at all.

To be honest, Di Wei was overjoyed to be able to come to the United States with Brother Sanmao this time. I didn’t expect that Mr. Xu would value him so much, and he promised to bring him to Hollywood one day. Di Wei was really happy and couldn’t help it. Tears almost burst out.

……

Then Xu Guanwu took the four of them to Lei Shidong's office.

National Entertainment Company is already well-known in the American film industry, but it is not well-known in Hong Kong.After all, it is only in the theater business, unlike Fox, which is in the production and distribution business, and its business is all over the world.

"Stanley, it's been a long time. I miss me so much." As soon as Lei Shidong saw Xu Guanwu, he couldn't help but wanted to rush over to hug him.

Xu Guanwu smiled and hugged him, "Let me introduce to you, Mr. Lei Shidong, the second largest theater operator in the United States, with more than 3000 theaters under his umbrella, and a large screen worth nearly [-] yuan."

"Wow!" Cheng Long and the others saw that Lei Shidong was just an old man in his 60s with an unattractive appearance, so they didn't take him seriously.But after hearing Xu Guanwu's introduction, the four of them were immediately in awe.

The largest theater chain operator in Hong Kong is Xu Guanwu. Its Brilliant Cinemas and Fine Arts Cinemas are only a few hundred screens.But Lei Shidong himself spent nearly 3000 yuan on the screen, which is really unimaginable.

"This is Hong Jingbao, San Mao, Cheng Long, Jie Ji, Yuan Biao, A Biao, Di Wei, and A Wei." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "You should have seen the movies they starred in, right?"

"I've seen it, and to be honest, I'm very shocked. I didn't expect that Hong Kong filmmakers would be so desperate to make a movie, and dare to do such dangerous actions. It's really amazing." Lei Shidong couldn't help but said with a smile.

When he saw Cheng Long accidentally fell from the bell tower in the video, he was so frightened that he almost forgot to breathe.If American actors came to shoot this scene, it must have been edited in the middle.All kinds of safety facilities must be prepared, and at the same time, insurance must be bought for the actors, so that they dare to do such dangerous actions.

But looking at the scene in "Project A", it has been followed. It can be clearly seen that there is no protective measure in the ground, and it just fell directly to the ground. It really made people feel a cold sweat.

"What do you think of this "Project A"? Does it have the potential to be a big hit?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.

"Needless to say, since it's your movie produced by Stanley, I'm sure you can make a lot of money." Lei Shidong said with a smile, "To be honest, now your name Stanley has become a very good advertising signboard. Audiences have already recognized your name after watching the movie."

"Really? That's really my honor." Xu Guanwu couldn't help being surprised and happy when he heard it.

In his previous life, Steven Spielberg was one of the most well-known filmmakers in Hollywood. All the works bearing his name, even if he is only the producer of the film, will still be sought after by fans all over the world, making those films very good. box office.

Xu Guanwu didn't expect that he would be treated like this now, and he was really flattered.But in fact, all of this is also based on the movies he produced, all of which are classic blockbuster movies in Hollywood history.It can be said that they are all classics, so it is natural for Xu Guanwu to earn such a big name.
