Chapter 535 Missing at a critical moment, I am anxious to death
Among the invitation letters in front of Wang Xiaohu, there was one from Lang Meyer, the president of Universal Pictures, who invited Wang Xiaohu to play a round of golf at noon.

The president of MGM, the American gambling tycoon Kirk Kerklean invited Wang Xiaohu to Las Vegas to enjoy a very wonderful night.

The head of Paramount, Barry Diller, invited Wang Xiaohu to visit their company and have dinner together.

Among the eight major Hollywood film companies, except for 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros., the other six have expressed their favor towards Wang Xiaohu in their own way.

20th Century Fox does not need to please Wang Xiaohu, because they have established a friendly partnership for 73 years since 7. The two companies can be regarded as helping each other. You need Concorde and powerful films with box office guarantees.

As for Warner Bros., they have been in a cold war with Xiehe for 7 years. Since the two sides broke their faces in 73, they have not had too many negotiations. ", even though they knew that doing so would not have the slightest effect, as long as they could hit Concorde, that was what they liked to do.

Wang Xiaohu took out one of the invitation letters, which belonged to the wealthy MGM company. Seeing this chapter of the invitation letter, he chuckled and threw it back on the table: "Las Vegas? Unfortunately, I'm not interested in gambling."

"Golf is a very luxurious sport in China, and I don't have that much spare time to waste on it!" Wang Xiaohu rejected Universal Films' invitation again.

In the end, he simply called Winterdur into the office, "Old Wen, in the next week, I will pay attention to the filming of "First Blood". I hold it!"

Winterdur showed a fox-like smile and said, "Boss, you are such a cunning guy. Let me take on this kind of thankless work."

Wang Xiaohu shrugged and said, "Bonus!"

"OK, OK! Boss, I really like to do these nasty jobs for you." Winterdur hastily raised his hand and surrendered, what a joke, now everyone can see the box office value of "Mythology", and he doesn't want to lose A good job for retirement.

In this contest with the Hollywood movie tycoons, Wang Xiaohu already has an absolute advantage. Judging from the current box office results, even if there are no other companies to cooperate with the release, the box office of "Mythology" will grow steadily. At this time You can see how important it is to have your own theatrical distributor.

Now "Mythology" is still screened in 920 theaters. The number seems a little small, but it can guarantee an attendance rate of 85%. Many viewers are queuing outside the door to buy tickets. After all, there are too few theaters, and other theaters do not show it. , so the tornado from China will still keep blowing with more than ten levels of wind.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Wang Xiaohu doesn't understand the truth that the more theaters, the higher the box office profit. "Experience M16 on the set.

Early the next morning, Wang Xiaohu, Wu Yusen, and the recovering Stallone rushed to the set. For Wang Xiaohu's arrival, all the crew members gave warm applause.

Brian Dennehy, who played the sheriff, exclaimed: "Hey, boss, your movie is great. After watching it, we discussed excitedly all night."

"What are you talking about?" Wang Xiaohu laughed.

"Of course it's a question of who is more powerful, the ancient eastern kingdom or the Roman Empire, and whether your weapons are as powerful as in the movie." Brian Dennehy said.

Wang Xiaohu smiled. He didn't expect that Brian Dennehy, who played the sheriff in "First Blood", would be interested in the military in the cold weapon era. He shrugged and said: "This kind of comparison is meaningless, to me He’s far less attractive than the saber and M16 in Lambo’s hands.”

Richard Crenna, who played the role of the colonel, said: "I agree with Tiger's statement. In comparison, thermal weapons are more deterrent and lethal."

"Ha, Richard, I wonder how your shooting skills are?" Wang Xiaohu said with a smile.

"Tiger, you are making things difficult. You must know that there is no shot of me shooting in the script." Richard Crenna said gloomily, "I think there should be more shots."

"Okay, how about adding a scene where you shoot and kill Rambo?" Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "If you are not afraid of the audience scolding you to death, you can try it."

"No, no, no, absolutely not!" Stallone interrupted. "Letting a hero die is a very stupid thing. Kirk Douglas insists on that view. I had a big fight with him."

Kirk Douglas was the original choice to play Colonel Samuel, but he insisted that Rambo in the film should die at the end like the novel. Due to disagreement, Douglas finally withdrew.
A group of people began to discuss the ending of "First Blood", Wu Yusen suddenly frowned and said to Wang Xiaohu: "Ah Hu, how did you arrange the ending of "Mythology", I always feel that this is very unfair to the princess. "

"Why is it unfair?" Wang Xiaohu looked at Wu Yusen and said, "Are you saying you can live forever?"

"Yes! According to the plot, Tiger is the reincarnation of Meng Yi, while the princess has taken the elixir of life. She will stay young forever. I think even if the princess comes out of the floating heavenly palace to look for Tiger, wait decades Afterwards, Tiger died, and the princess still left an empty dream, Meng Yi she wanted still hasn't come back." Wu Yusen said seriously.

But Wang Xiaohu laughed loudly: "Ah John, it seems that you haven't noticed many details. First of all, I let the princess be hit by Professor Gu. What does this mean? I can explain that as long as she bleeds a drop of blood, she can live forever." The effect of not aging will end, and her metabolic function will return to the normal level, don't say anything like turning into an old witch all of a sudden, we are shooting a movie."

"The princess has become a normal person, so she will naturally go out to find Meng Yi, and then she has learned a lot of knowledge in the society, and she also knows that Tiger is not Meng Yi himself, but Meng Yi's reincarnation, and the next thing is a matter of course gone."

Wang Xiaohu explained patiently.

"But the real Meng Yi is dead! General Qin Chao." Before Wu Yusen finished speaking, Wang Xiaohu interrupted him by raising his hand. Wang Xiaohu said with a smile, "I just said that General Qin Chao raised his sword. But it didn't say that he really killed Meng Yi, so can you understand?"

"Ah!" Wu Yusen opened his mouth when he heard the words, and he stammered, "Yes, also, that is to say, "Mythology" can still be filmed as a sequel?"

"I don't have to say it!" Wang Xiaohu said with a smile: "As for the sequel or prequel, I haven't thought about it yet. I will think about it when I have time and mood. Now I just want to get M16! Who will get it for me?" An M16 and two clips, and get me a better trainer."

Watching Wang Xiaohu go to practice guns happily, Wu Yusen pondered for a long time in a daze. What Wang Xiaohu said just now fully inspired his creative inspiration. More continuation of the plot development.

When Wang Xiaohu burst into M16 in "First Blood", the distributors in Hollywood were in a mess. The box office of "Mythology" in the second week was still soaring. Myth's enthusiasm remains undiminished.

For this reason, Searchlight Company has increased the number of times "Mythology" is played, changing from 3 games per day to 5 games, and the 200 theaters under Xiehe have also made changes, but this still cannot meet the requirements of fanatical citizens.

Audiences who have watched "Mythology" want to go to the theater to enjoy the shocking taste again, while audiences who have not watched it are queuing up to buy movie tickets, but there are too many people who want to watch it, and 920 movie theaters are far from enough .

For this reason, many American citizens called other theaters and asked them to distribute "Myth" as an agent to satisfy their desire to watch.

Why don't theater distributors want to release "Mythology", but the manager of Concorde Co., Ltd., Winterdur, said that their boss is not at home, and he has no right to sign the contract.

Among the six major Hollywood film companies, United Artists and Universal are the two most anxious. United Artists is burning their ass now, and Danny complained to Victor for this.

"Consider, let's go to hell with thinking, it's all right now, no one can be found! If we had agreed to his request, we would have started counting the money by now!" Danny was very angry, his eyes were full of tears. Bloodshot, wishing he could eat Victor's posture.

Victor also had a hard time, and regretted it to death, but now not only United Artists can't find Wang Xiaohu, even Universal can't find it.

Universal was anxious because they didn't see the value of "Mythology" at the beginning. They always believed that "Jaws" had box office appeal in their original intention. They didn't expect them to miss it this time. "Mythology" almost broke through the box office in the first week. It may not be a very high result, but don't forget that this movie was shot by Dongfang. It can be said that this is the best box office performance of Dongfang movies.

For this reason, Robert, the representative of Universal's publishing department, squatted at Xiehe Company every day, waiting for Wang Xiaohu's appearance.

At the same time, Paramount, Columbia, MGM, and Disney also sent representatives to live in the office of Xiehe Company, asking Winterdur about Wang Xiaohu's whereabouts every day.

They are in a hurry!Did Wang Xiaohu disappear?
