"Boss Zade, come over and sing..."

"Boss Zade, have a drink... The girl tonight is very beautiful, tonight we..."

"Boss, we..."

“…”

Under the night.

Zade walked out of the KTV alone.

He was drunk and looked confused, but there was always a sense of boredom in his eyes.

After coming to the small stone table outside the KTV, he took out cigarettes from his pocket and smoked them one by one.

The smoke was a bit choking, but he felt that only the choking feeling made him feel comfortable.

He looked kind of decadent.

In fact, he was once a boxer, but due to certain rules, he left the arena.

After leaving the arena, he couldn't find a job for a while. Later, he became a local gangster in Hollywood who made a living by collecting protection fees and running a small bar at the same time...

Scenes from the past emerged in his mind one after another.

Zade, who never thought about anything else, felt his mood become extremely delicate at this moment, just like a little girl who was entangled.

After smoking who knows how many cigarettes, he looked up at the moon above his head.

The moon is very bright and beautiful at the same time.

However, it also has a slightly ethereal feeling.

"Hey sir, can you buy me a drink?"

"Get lost!"

"Oh my God, this man is sick!"

“…”

A gust of wind blew by.

He turned around and looked at the KTV again. He saw a "professional girl" with heavy makeup who usually made him very excited walking out from the side of the KTV from time to time.

But today, he found himself a little unexcited.

He really didn't like being disturbed when he was deep in thought.

"Mr. Zade, please join us..."

"Mr. Zade, I don't know what to say, but I can see from your eyes that you are not someone who is willing to live like this for the rest of your life."

"Sometimes, I think we have to gamble with our lives. We may fail, but what if, by some chance, you win?"

"Mr. Zade, I hope you can check my resume or my information..."

“…”

The strange Chinese man's voice kept echoing in Zade's ears.

Zade subconsciously took out his newly bought smartphone and typed in the name "Lu Yuan". After typing it in, countless data suddenly came out...

Director, writer, poet, singer...

After looking at Lu Yuan's representative works, Zade felt like he had seen a ghost.

This guy is like a monster.

The wind seemed chilly under the night sky, and even a muscular man like Zade felt a little bit cold.

He put out his cigarette, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and finally he let out a long sigh.

At this time...

His cell phone rang.

He answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Mr. Zade, how did things go today? Mr. Allen just asked me."

"Mr. Nix, I... do you think I can be an actor?"

"ah?"

"Mr. Nix, someone told me today that I have a talent for being an actor..."

"Hahahahaha, Mr. Zade, when did you become so humorous, hahahaha, okay, Mr. Zade, I have to admit that your humorous jokes made me laugh..."

"Haha." Zade also laughed, but for some reason, he felt that the other party's joke was harsh.

It was like a needle piercing his heart, making him feel very uncomfortable.

He had never felt so uncomfortable.

"Well, Mr. Zade, how are you doing with what Mr. Allen asked you to do?"

"I don't want to do it anymore, find someone else."

"What? Mr. Zade? What did you say?"

"I don't want to do it anymore. You can find someone else. I suddenly want to try to be a joke..."

"???"

Zade hung up the phone and stood up, hesitated for a moment, and called another person.

"Jim, get me a resume. A real resume."

"???"

…

"Boss... Mr. Edward will be here tomorrow morning, and Mr. Kennedy will come with him. As for Mr. Jester, he will come in the afternoon... and Mr. Conte in the evening... In the meantime, I have almost arranged other things for the crew. The day after tomorrow is a good day, and the filming will start the day after tomorrow. As for "Saw", the filming is going very smoothly..." Forrest came to Lu Yuan and told him carefully about everything that had happened in the company recently.

Lu Yuan listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

He felt very satisfied.

"By the way, what's the situation at Migos Cinema?"

"Well... the renovations are progressing. It is expected that after Saw starts, some theaters will be able to start showing the film."

"Oh, okay, go ahead and get busy. Thank you for your hard work!"

"Boss, I'm not tired!"

In the office.

After reporting his work, Forrest left the office to continue preparing for the startup.

Lu Yuan glanced out the window silently, then looked at the calendar hanging on the wall.

Before we know it, it’s already Labor Day in May?

Labor Day is usually a day when many blockbuster movies gather. "You Are the Apple of My Eye" was originally scheduled to be released on May 1st, but because of Fatty Wei's pursuit of excellence and other reasons, only about three-quarters of the movie was shot. The actual release will probably be postponed for a month to June 1st.

The nature of "remote" companies has always been to delay progress. Everyone has gotten used to it, and there is nothing else to say about the sudden delay of the new movie.

"We can't let others down in the future..."

Lu Yuan shook his head, feeling very emotional.

Just as Lu Yuan was sighing, his cell phone rang.

Looking at the number, Lu Yuan saw that it was a call from Director Zhang Tong.

"Mr. Lu... Is Hollywood okay?"

"I'm fine, what's wrong?"

"The Chinese movies in May are over!"

"ah?"

"Hollywood in May..."

As soon as Zhang Tong came up, he spoke to Lu Yuan in a pessimistic tone.

After hearing what Zhang Tong said, Lu Yuan was stunned.

Three Hollywood blockbusters, Deepsea 2, The World's End, and Global Disaster, were released in China at the same time. Although the final box office figures will not be released until this afternoon, judging from the momentum, these movies are indeed very successful...

The situation on China's side looks quite bleak, or it seems that it has suddenly become cowardly.

At the end of April, "Fortress", which was originally scheduled to be released in June, suddenly announced a change of release date, saying that it would be released on May 1st to clash with Hollywood blockbusters!

This movie, which cost nearly 200 million RMB to make, has a very strong momentum and the publicity is also very effective. It has not only aroused the emotions of fans, but also made them feel a little excited.

Everyone is looking forward to the collision between Chinese science fiction blockbusters and Hollywood blockbusters!

But……

By the end of April, "City Fortress" suddenly backed down again and announced that it would have to be rescheduled to its original release date due to promotional schedule reasons.

Without the impact of "City Fortress", the whole of China suddenly became sluggish in May.

The only thing to look forward to is Zhang Tong's comedy, "Life of Making Money"...

However, it is a comedy after all. It may be a hit at the box office, but it cannot compare with Hollywood movies.

Except for Zhang Tong, other Chinese directors seem to have given up on the day of May.

Li Mingrui's "War Blood 3" is still in the process of filming...

Xu Qifeng, this cutting-edge director, has lost his voice...

Li You was obsessed with art films and made an in-depth art film called "I Am a Cow". After seeing the name, Lu Yuan felt that his IQ was not enough again.

Why not shoot something else, why not shoot a cow’s life?

Maybe this film is very artistic, maybe it is awesome and some art lovers will call it a masterpiece, maybe it can win some awards in Venice or Berlin and bring glory to the country...

but……

Are ordinary people the majority of those who watch movies?

The box office of your movie...

Don't you want it anymore?

As for other directors?

Forget it...

It’s better to take a shower and go to bed early.

It is foreseeable that May will also be a month of slaughter by Hollywood in China...

Zhang Tong became more and more pessimistic as he spoke on the phone.

At the same time sighing.

"Mr. Lu... I suddenly have a very sad feeling..."

"Um, Director Zhang, there's no need to be so pessimistic. Everything is temporary. Chinese films will eventually rise again."

"Mr. Lu, I've heard too many things like this. Every year, countless people say that Chinese films will rise one day, but every year they fall to the bottom. Last year, Chinese films were still a little better. Several of your films won pride for us Chinese, but this year... By the way, what do you think of "City Fortress"? " Zhang Tong sighed again when he said this.

"'City Fortress'? I... haven't really seen it, but with such a high investment, it should be a good movie."

"No, I have a feeling that this movie might usher in an era of traffic..."

"ah?"

"The era of young and handsome men may be coming..."

"Director Zhang, this is the trend of the times, there's nothing we can do about it..."

“Yeah, just like your live broadcast platform, you should have seen this era, right?”

“…”

"Mr. Lu..."

"What?"

"I don't know why, but I feel like you should be the creator of another era... I've always had a feeling that this era is really coming... I'm very lucky, I feel like I can witness this era."

"Director Zhang, please don't praise me too much..."

"I'm optimistic about your The Legend of 1900..."

“…”

After talking to Zhang Tong on the phone, Lu Yuan clearly felt that Zhang Tong's words seemed very complicated.

There is a kind of respect, and at the same time a sigh, and in the sigh I feel very fortunate.

Lu Yuan shook his head.

I can’t take care of what’s happening in China for now.

Lu Yuan didn't take the title of creator of an era seriously at all.

after all……

He is extremely poor now, and all he wants now is for the movie to be released soon so he can make some money and tide over the difficult times.

you say……

Kao Jinxue’s money?

fart!

I, Lu Yuan, will never live off others even if I starve to death or have no money!

I am a dignified person!

Um……

As for how the first million came about.

Cough, cough…

Lu Yuan automatically ignored it.

…

"Boys! Cheer up!"

"Tonight is our Novi Company's first battle! Although we have known each other for a short time, only a few days, please believe me, I will bring you a brand new era!"

"I've read your information. Each of you has your own reasons for needing money. Don't worry, I can give you money! As long as you have the ability to take it, I can give you money at any time!"

"Starting tonight, we must put aside our sense of shame..."

“…”

In the "Novi" company.

Zhou Shuai looked at the two young men sitting in the office.

The eyes look fiery!

He fired all the old employees of "Novi" company, and at the same time, he specially selected two young people with dreams from the university in the past two days...

Um……

He picked the easiest ones to deceive anyway, and they were fresh graduates who were eager to join the media...

Um……

Looks a bit silly.

Of course, Zhou Shuai likes this kind of idiot.

Anyway…

"This is the data I shot these past two days! Starting tonight, our goal is to hunt Hollywood!"

"Little ones, I will arrange work for you and teach you hunting skills!"

"Tomorrow, I want to see a sensation! Remember, a sensation, an absolute sensation!"

Zhou Shuai brainwashed the two employees for two hours.

I didn't stop until my throat was completely dry...

He then made the two of them sign a confidentiality agreement.

After signing, he stared at the two young men with a slight smile on his face!
