Global Movie Emperor

"So? Lu Ze, you are in your 30s, can't you talk to me about something? Did you treat me as your girlfriend? Yesterday you promised to live with me, ready to start a new life. What? You followed him without saying a word. At the Imperial Capital Airport, the plane took off immediately before you called me and said you were leaving?"

"Sorry Pei Ling, I did something wrong, but I don't want you and Mickey to have an argument after I make a decision, so I can only tell you after I get to the Imperial Capital."

"Tell me? Tell me, right? Really, Lu Ze, I found...maybe I am not that important in your heart. I really hate your silent interruption of our planned life plan. If you If you care about my feelings, you should not leave, at least not today."

"I...I just want to give it a try. If a few months later, the film scores are not good, I will give up completely and return to Lu Hua to work hard. This time I will treat it as a trip to the UK."

"Then the grades are good?"

"..."

Gao Peiling listened to Lu Ze's silence and sneered. She stretched out her hand to put the long hair scattered in front of her forehead back behind her head, leaned on the bench, turned the water glass, and stared at the group photo of the two next to the monitor. She was also silent for a long time.

"Perhaps we should all calmly think about it for a while, and wait for you to call me after you finish making the movie. When abroad...be careful."

"beep……"

She hung up the phone. Lu Ze glanced at the screen, threw the phone on the small table in the front seat of the plane, closed his eyes, rubbed his forehead with his palm, and sighed slightly. He did a little too much.

But he really didn’t want to see Gao Peiling and Mickey arguing or fighting each other in the wine bar. With Gao Peiling’s hot temper, this is not impossible. This time, his behavior is more like a person who ran away from home because of fear of causing troubles by his parents. child.

"Why? The billionaire is angry? Maybe you won't be able to deal with the rich woman this time. I'm sorry, but we can become rich by ourselves! We don't have to be humble, we should be our own masters, holding our destiny and money in our own hands!"

"Come on, don't brainwash me, you trick, I know someone who engages in pyramid schemes, you can play with you when you pee and mud. Save you, let go, I'll beat my mother. Calls."

Somewhat disgustingly, he threw away his arms around his shoulders. Lu Ze picked up the phone and called Li Yumei. After three beeps, the call was connected.

"Hello? Mom, there’s something I want to tell you. I’m going to the UK. I’m leaving now. A friend asked me to let me go... to act in a play. I’ll be back in about two or three months. I applied for a UK visa when I went to France before, and now I can go straight away before it expires. Pei Ling knows, well, then you and my dad will pay attention to your health. I will definitely go back years ago."

The mountains in Lu Hua are much cooler than the city. The sparrows staying on the vines screamed twice to make the environment more pleasant. Li Yumei hung up the phone, and the sound of the kitchen knife touching the cutting board came out again.

"Where did Daze go?"

"He said that a friend wanted him to have a job, and he was going to act in a play, and he would be back in two or three months."

"Oh."

Lu Weiguo still didn't say much. After he informed him, he watched the TV quietly and slowly sipped his tea, but a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

...

The words were still a little hurried, because the stewardess asked Lu Ze to switch his mobile phone to flight mode. After the plane slowly entered the orbit, it suddenly accelerated, and the plane rushed into the sky. Lu Ze was right by the window, watching him getting closer and closer. Clouds, closed his eyes and prepared to take a break, but Mickey always had no time to be honest.

"Damn, the economy class is too crowded. My knees hurt so much. "The Desolate Desolation"... Hey, Lu Ze, isn't this the movie you filmed before, it's now in theaters."

"Well, so what?"

"Well...600 million investment, if you change it into British pounds, it would be 1:8.3...and it's almost 100 million. I look at the box office on the first day, oh ~ over 120 million! The next day... One hundred and eight million! On the third day, 98 million, my God, really Lu Ze, I feel that you leave this crew...a bit of a loss, if this continues, there should be no problem with hitting three or four billion. , Hey? Why is the box office so high and so many negative comments?"

"Stop talking about it, I knew it a long time ago, you look at the magazine date."

"June 18th? Nima's magazine two weeks ago? This is really a misconduct in economy class."

"A two thousand yuan ticket, it would be nice to give you a seat. You are also a ballast tail cargo. Stop talking. I didn't sleep well last night. I'll take a rest first."

Lu Ze didn’t want to explain to Mickey why a movie full of curses would blow up at the box office. Mickey wasn’t a fool anyway, he would want to understand and stop talking to Mickey. Lu Ze fell asleep within two minutes after putting on his blindfold. , As for his sleeping appearance and whether he snores or not, he doesn't care anymore.

Until ten o'clock in the evening, the plane landed at Dubai Airport, and they had to wait eight hours at the Dubai airport before connecting.

The feeling of landing on the ground was not bad. After being awakened by Mickey, the two went to the smoking room to solve the problem of smoking cravings. Then they bought two hot dogs, sat in the corner of the airport cafe, and talked about it. The purpose of Lu Ze's trip to the UK.

"Show me the script."

"no problem."

Mickey opened his schoolbag and took out the stack of A4 paper. The purely handwritten script looked very neat, and the words written in blue ink were neatly arranged. Lu Ze could see that Mickey had a habit of writing. However, all the text does not use swashes, which makes it difficult for the viewer to read, but is written in standard fonts for its part.

From this, we can see Mickey’s attitude towards the script and even the movie, which makes Lu Ze very recognized. It’s just that there is no binding. You need to read a page and put this page at the end. It’s a bit messy, but It didn't matter, because Lu Ze was already attracted by the content and was deeply caught by the text.

It was not until one and a half hours later that Lu Ze returned the script to Mickey, pinched the corner of his eyes, took a sip of the cold coffee, and did not speak. It was not that he was pretending to be advanced, but to ease the emotions that the script was driving. .

According to the standards of the domestic film industry, this script is bold and sharp. In other words, it is impossible to pass the review because the content expresses an attitude of human nature. At this point, people all over the world it's the same.

This reminded Lu Ze of another director who wrote and self-portrait, that is, Zhuang Yu, who has just entered the marriage palace.

The two have the same sharp attitude towards the movie, and they also have great hostility towards the unpleasantness of the world. But the difference between the two is that Zhuang Yu portrays the world’s sadness, but is full of compassion, while Mickey is portraying the world’s sadness. Evil, but full of resistance to evil.

Mickey saw that Lu Ze was relieving his emotions, so he did not bother him. After stuffing the script into his school bag, he picked up the cold hot dog, ate the sausage, bacon and cheese inside, and took the remaining bread, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour. Cucumber was thrown into the trash can, and finally he drank the coffee and hiccuped before speaking slowly.

"Is it so fast to read the script? But depending on how you look, you should read it carefully, how about it?"

"I've seen the cat kicking effect, the suggestion effect, the Mandela effect, and some other effects, but I forgot what they called it. It's a genius idea."

"Smart, but this is not an idea, but what happened to me. I just wrapped it into another story and determined to take it well, so what do you think of it?"

The two of them looked at each other, and Mickey showed a mysterious smile. Lu Ze looked at him for a long time, took a sip of coffee, and kept nodding gently.

"I like it."

"Okay, let’s be honest. Actually, I can’t get the investment. The bank doesn’t lend me. The film company only wants to buy this script and not let me be a director, so I had to sell another one. I really like the script. I raised 250,000 euros. I can give you only 50,000, really only so much."

"If I care about money, I won't be here this time, besides... I know how much my current value is, if the exchange rate is changed, it will be more than 400,000 yuan, two or three months, it is a lot."

Even if Lu Ze has gone abroad with him, Mickey is still worried. After all, he will be able to get back if he can leave. If Lu Ze feels that he has given less or feels unsatisfied with the script, he can't stop him. Lu Ze nodded and brought him a surprise, so now Lu Ze agreed to bring him absolutely moved, and he expressed the same frankness, got up and hugged Lu Ze.

"Thank you, thank you Lu Ze, I will repay you twice, I promise."

"It doesn't matter if we don't pay it back. After all, we all want to fight for it. As long as we win, you will give me everything back. I also want to thank you. You can still remember me with such a good script, um... Answer the phone, feed the sea?"

The sea was the first customer to come to the door after Lu Ze Restaurant opened the door. Lu Ze left in a hurry, so he asked the lame man to take care of the sea. Anyway, he was a novelist, and he had a day of urination. Lu Ze said let He took care of the **** and directly patted his chest to ensure that when Lu Ze returned, the **** would gain two pounds.

But now the sea may be regretful. Lu Ze has walked for more than ten hours and has not returned. It seems a little anxious, jumping up and down in the sea house. There is no way. The sea called Lu Ze this time. Lu Ze was apologetic in his heart, not only to the sea, but also to the lame. After all, the life span of a cat is actually not long. It is irresponsible that he, the owner, cannot give him a long-term company, even now. The **** is only four or five years old, so he can only be regarded as a young man.

Lu Ze asked Dahai to give the call to the lame, and comforted the lame on the phone. It seemed to understand it. After a few calls, he took the initiative to return to the cat cage to sleep. This also made Lu Ze determined and worked hard. When the trick is filmed at its best, you should finish filming and go home as soon as possible. There are still many people waiting for him in the family.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ze asked Mickey to take out the script again. The two began to discuss the storyboarding of the script and the modification of the storyline. They talked about it until 6 o'clock the next morning in Dubai.

On the flight to the UK, the conditions of the two of them were completely opposite to those when they flew to Dubai. Mickey began to fall asleep, while Lu Ze kept studying the script. After systematic and squeezing training, just over ten hours, Lu Ze mastered the character of the protagonist seven or eight.

Because the tickets to Liverpool have been sold out, the two flew to London first. When they got off the plane, it was more than four in the afternoon. The two had dinner in London. Because of the limited funds, Mickey could only ask Lu Ze to stay on the street. The store eats fish and chips.

To be honest, this thing Lu Ze felt...not very delicious, mainly because the fried fish crust is too thick, and there is an unspeakable taste. On the contrary, Lu Ze ate a lot of French fries, not at all. French fries are particularly delicious, just because Lu Ze likes potatoes.

After dinner, I took the most common means of transportation in the UK, the train. After a three-hour drive, I finally arrived in Liverpool at 8pm.

The initial impression of the city may be that when a white horse drawn by a policewoman came out and almost smashed the papa on Lu Ze’s feet when she first left the train station, and when the original heroic policewoman dismounted and shoveled **** , Somewhat funny.

"It feels good to be home~ Let's go, I will take you to a fun place."

Mickey took Lu Ze's arm and rushed forward, but when Lu Ze heard that he was going to play, he frowned and stopped.

"I think the main purpose now is to prepare the crew. I came to the UK with you, not to travel."

"Of course I know, but this is the first day you came! Don't keep working like a robot. When I go to China, how did you entertain me? Then when you come to Liverpool, how do I entertain you? , Believe me, the last time before the film is finished, let's go!"

Hearing what Mickey said, Lu Ze had no choice but to follow in his footsteps. He passed several bars along the way. Many young people were dressed in fashion and stood in line at the bar to check their ID cards. Unfortunately, neither of them ended up in these bars. At any of the restaurants, after twenty minutes, Mitch led Lu Ze to stop, stood at the door of a bar called Lionheart, and made a request to Lu Ze.

Entering the tavern, there was alcohol and loud noises, but Lu Ze was also relieved. Compared with electronic music slamming nightclubs, this kind of TV shows the English-style rugby night game. The old bar is even more popular with middle-aged people like Lu Ze.

"Hey! Mickey! Your new boyfriend?"

"I'm not a pervert who likes to wear leather underwear, right? James? Hey! Irina! You are beautiful again."

It seems that Mickey is still a celebrity here. He greeted him, and there were a lot of guests joking. Occasionally, a drunkard who drank a map cannon was immediately scolded by Mickey, explaining what is sharp.

Lu Ze’s focus is on the overall environment of the bar, which is similar to the English bar in the movie. The wooden structure looks very retro, but the walls are covered with photos. Even if Lu Ze doesn’t pay much attention to football now. , Also recognized many of Liverpool's famous players and the team's historical players.

"Mickey, why did you go in these two days? Why didn't you see anyone?"

Finding an empty seat to sit down, a girl in waitress costume came over. She was a typical Western beauty. She was hot and blonde. She was chewing gum and chatted with Mickey. When Lu Ze entered the door I already knew her name.

"I just came back from China and kidnapped a friend."

"Huaxia? Is it fun? How is the scenery?"

"Scenery? I don’t know. I only stayed in China for two days, and I still drank too much. Let me introduce, Irina, the daughter of the bar owner, this is Lu Ze. You can call him loser. Of course, I also changed my name. , I am also called loser, two losers...that's it.

Lu Ze didn't mind this kind of self-deprecating joke. He just waved his hand to Elena. Instead, the girl shook Mickey's shoulder and tried to comfort Mickey. After all, everyone knew what happened to Mickey. It was just Lu Ze. I always feel that this girl has something with Mickey.

"Stop talking about this, what to drink?"

"A bottle of black label, two ounce glasses by the way, and two more glasses of Al beer. When we finish drinking, two more glasses of beer until one of us lie down. Lu Ze, what would you like to order?"

"I will drink whatever you order."

The girl understood that she came back with drinks and snacks shortly after she left and greeted the other guests with a smile after putting them on the table.

Mickey unscrewed the whiskey at this moment, filled two ounce cups, then threw the ounce cup directly into the beer, exploded a thick layer of foam, handed Lu Ze a cigarette, lit it and raised the glass.

"Cheers!"

Perhaps this drinking method is easy to catch up, or it may be due to jet lag. As soon as the second cup was finished, the two became a little bit drunk. They blended into the bar environment and shouted at the rugby players who collided on the TV. As soon as the third cup was lifted, a pair of arms rested on Mickey's shoulders.

"Look at who this is? Mickey, how are you my friend, I haven't seen you for a few days, I thought you were in jail again, is prison food still to your liking?"

Don't talk about Mickey, even Lu Ze changed his face in an instant. You must know that going to jail is a scar that Mickey can't lift, but this person keeps sprinkling salt on Mickey's wound. This proves that he... is not a friend. .

"what did you say?"

After flicking the soot, Lu Ze stared at the drunkard who was wearing a wrinkled suit and blushing like a butt. He didn't mind having a fight with this grandson. Anyway, he would definitely be able to fight. If it doesn't work, it will be called, and there are piles of fights in his mind.

"Foreigners have nothing to do with you, do you know? I never racially discriminate, but I hate those self-righteous outsiders. I don't care if you are Asian or Chinese American. This is Liverpool."

Just before Lu Ze stood up, Mickey pressed him down, shook his head towards Lu Ze, and let Lu Ze sit back in position, and at this moment, Irina also walked over.

"You'd better not make trouble in my house. If you drink, drink honestly. If you don't drink, then get out Dave. I hate you very much."

This man had a grudge with Mickey, but in the tavern, he did not dare to argue with Elena. After all, 80% of the people sitting in the tavern are old customers, and among these old customers, 100% Ninety of them all grew up watching Irina. If he doesn't want to be beaten out by people's brains, he has to be honest and obedient.

"Okay, then I want a cup of Chivas Regal and a slice of lime."

The drunkard apparently drank too much, but he didn't lose consciousness, waved his hand, and honestly found an empty seat to sit down, and Irina smiled at Mickey before turning to leave.

"Who is he?"

"One of my former neighbors had a company bankrupt. He lived on alcohol. His wife divorced and took away the children. He borrowed money from me when the relief fund was spent. If I didn’t lend him, he hated me. No one likes here. He, but he is from Liverpool after all, you can't do anything with him, otherwise no one here will welcome you unless..."

Mickey shook his head, and after clinking glasses with Lu Ze, he beckoned to Elena again, and running over again and again made the girl obviously a little unhappy. .

"What are you doing, are you helping me lose weight?"

"No, I have something to ask you, do you want to make a movie?"

This question obviously shocked Elena. She opened her mouth and couldn't speak for a long time. She just kept shaking her head, and finally took the breath and answered with a little stutter.

"Who can't like it? But I have a few kilograms, I know it myself, this kind of joke is boring, don't make it."

"No, what I said is true. Although my new movie is a small cost, it's not playing you, female number one, do you want to make it?"

"I can really?"

"Don't talk nonsense, do you want to?"

"of course!"

Lu Ze was naturally surprised by Mickey's absurd decision, but Irina was right in front of him after all, and he couldn't oppose it in front of her, so he could only sip the beer in silence, while Mickey smiled with both hands. Standing at the table, stretched his neck to look at Lu Ze.

"Do you know what I just said unless it means?"

"What do you mean?"

"You are an outsider, you can't beat him, unless the Liverpool guy beat him..."

As soon as the voice fell, Mickey got up instantly, walked towards Dave, grabbed the glass in Dave’s hand, and slammed it on his head. The wall of the whiskey glass was very thick. This time, Mickey didn’t break it. The wine glass was thrown aside. Obviously, he was afraid that it would cause trouble if he continued to smash it, so he could only kick Dave down with one kick, ride on his waist, and slammed into the face with punches.

The surrounding guests were watching the excitement and began to cheer under the influence of alcohol until the bar owner came out from the bar. He was more than two meters high and his huge body pulled Mickey aside like a baby chicken.

"Mickey, you are about to beat him to death. This is my site. You can't make trouble here, Elena, call the police and let the police handle it. But before that, you have to compensate for my loss."

"No one can humiliate my friend! No one!"

Mickey Liquor went on his head and didn't seem to have played enough. After all, he was the hero of "The Adventures of Jackie Chan" fan version. The moment he was thrown out, he got up and rushed over, but he couldn't get out of the bar owner's thigh more than Mickey's thigh. Thick arms.

"Enough Mickey! One hundred pounds, then roll."

"But he scolded my friend!"

"But he is not my friend."

He seemed to realize that there was a boss, and he could no longer beat Dave. Lu Ze hurried over to hold Mickey and took out a hundred pounds to leave. Only then did he turn off his fire, panting violently, and sat aside. I washed the blood and wounds on my hands with beer, but the boss didn't plan to let Mickey and Lu Ze stay in the bar anymore.

"Get off, go home and wake up your mind, waiting for the police to come to you, Irina, see how Dave is."

"You better not drive me away, I'm serious Depp, your daughter is the heroine of my movie, you want to drive out the director of your daughter?"

Hearing this news, Depp first looked at Jelena, and after getting the affirmation, he looked at Mickey up and down. Of course he knew that Mickey was a very good director. It is not an exaggeration to say that all Europe knew that Liverpool had a talented director. , But now he is clear about Mickey's situation. He is skeptical about whether Mickey can still make movies.

"You? You can still make movies? Who will invest in addicts?"

"First of all, I didn't **** D, never! In addition, although my new film investment is not big, but it is established, do you want to check my bank account with me? If you have never respected me."

There is a huge difference between the two figures, but Mickey looked at Depp without the slightest timidity. Until Depp saw that he was really confident, he nodded and pulled Dave by the collar like a dead dog. After throwing it on the side of the road, he returned to the bar and beckoned to Mickey.

"You and your friend come over to sit at the bar, I think... we need to talk, first of all, who is the actor?"

"My friend is."

"Asian?"

"What? Look down on Asians?"

"Of course not, just curious."

"China Golden Rooster Award for best newcomer, two Golden Rooster Awards for best actor, one Hong Kong Golden Horse Award for best actor, one Bay Bay Golden Horse Award for best actor, Cannes nominated for best actor, you are already arrogant Do you look down on the winners of the four trophies at the top Asian film festivals? Are you a primitive? Check it out for yourself."

A series of titles have indeed smashed all the spectators in the bar, including Depp. The Golden Rooster and Golden Horse Awards may not be well-known in Europe, but as the Xiangjiang of Oriental Hollywood, the name of the Golden Image Award is still widely known, and Cannes The nomination of the best actor in the film festival can easily prove that this man who is blindly unrecognizable is really powerful.

"Yes, but I don't want my daughter to have explicit shots on the screen."

"If the kiss scene is also explicit."

"The script, let me see."

"Sorry, I won't take it out before signing the contract."

"I never heard of this rule."

"Because this is my rule~www.ltnovel.com~ why?"

"By the way I am Mitch Fernand Taylor."

"Then your friends have seen it?"

"Seen."

Mickey didn't conceal the fact that Lu Ze had read the script. This made Depp a little angry. Why can the male lead watch but the female lead can't watch it? What kind of stuff Lu Ze is the actor for several years, and his daughter is just the daughter of a bar owner? Just because his daughter works as a waiter in a bar?

"Why is this?"

"Because he is my best friend."

"Are you a couple?"

"He is not gay, nor am I, but he saved my life, and I am also saving his life now."

What this passage says makes people feel like a cloud, isn't it just making a movie? How can you pay back this life, that life, you two fight Contra? Maybe any filmmaker who knows both of them, or film lovers can understand the meaning of this passage, but the gang in the bar only knows about drinking, watching games, vomiting, and going home to make children. They obviously don't understand.

Mickey took a glass of beer by himself, lost his breath, burped hard, and raised his head to Elena.

"It's getting late, we have to go back and rest. If you are willing to shoot, then contact me after ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and you are not allowed to fight before ten o'clock. I can't get up. Good night everyone."

He patted Lu Ze on the shoulder and took Lu Ze to leave. The two of them just walked to the door, but Depp stopped them again. When they turned their heads, they saw Depp waving his hands helplessly.

"What about the name? At least the name can be known, right?"

""Effect"."

""Effect"? What do you mean?"

"Confidentiality, my rule."
