"Star Wars" is the highest-invested movie in the entire "remote" entertainment industry.
The total investment is nearly 100 million US dollars.
An investment of over 100 million US dollars may only be considered upper-middle class at best in a place full of Hollywood blockbusters, but for the entire "Remote" entertainment and Thomson, this is a big production!
Thomson took it very seriously.
A big production, of course, cannot be complete without famous Hollywood actors!
Therefore, after confirming the investment project and forming a good crew, Thomson repeatedly pondered over the selection of leading actors and others. After thinking for a long time, he specially contacted Paberson, the former winner of the Oscar for Best Newcomer.
In Thomson's eyes, Pablo is very suitable to play the male protagonist Luke in the movie in terms of appearance, temperament, and acting skills.
So they spent a relatively high price to invite Pablo Picasso to play the leading role in "Star Wars".
It was fine at first. Although Pablo was a little arrogant and occasionally questioned the filming process, he was still obedient.
But after a few days of continuous filming, Pablo Picasso gradually became dissatisfied with the entire "Star Wars" crew...
Whether it is the food or the accommodation, I am very dissatisfied!
What are the remote habits?
No matter how awesome or powerful you are, everyone eats, wears, and lives in the same place. Unless you pay for it yourself, everyone is treated equally...
Pablo was very unhappy!
He felt that he had won the Oscar for Best Newcomer, and this year his movie "The Next Generation" was also nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor. He felt that if nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely be the winner of the Oscar for Best Actor in March next year!
After all, his acting in "Miracle Rebirth" is remarkable!
He felt that he would definitely become emperor.
The future movie star!
What kind of card is this?
It is a huge honor for you, Thomson, to agree to act in your movie.
It's fine that you, Thomson, don't know how to be grateful that I agreed to star in your "Star Wars", but how can you treat me on the same level as anybody else?
This is totally disrespectful to me!
The rules for “remote”?
Pooh!
He scoffed at the so-called rules of "remote control".
Thomson?
He also completely ignored "Star Wars" director Thompson Paberson.
He felt that he had met too many great Hollywood directors!
Although you, Thomson, have some reputation in Hollywood, you are not Andorra, after all, you are not James...
Who do you think you are?
In short, in the crew, Pabotson often talked back to Thomson, and even joined forces with some other instigated actors several times. If his demands were not met, everyone would go on strike and not shoot.
You act like you can't do anything to me!
Thomson was furious!
However, in order to finish the filming of "Star Wars" and live up to the expectations of his boss Lu Yuan, Thomson put up with it! After careful consideration, Thomson gave in a little and paid for an extra room for Pabloson to make him a little different. As for food, he also paid for it secretly, just to be a good guy...
Thomson is compromising.
There is nothing wrong with this kind of compromise. It is okay to worship Pablo as an ancestor. After all, he is just a punching bag.
Thomson also had his own ideas.
After the filming of "Star Wars" is completed and the movie becomes a hit, all these so-called grievances can be redressed, and they can even be used to hype themselves up.
But……
This state did not last long!
This situation of compromise was completely broken.
Why?
Fatty Wei and others have come to Hollywood!
When Fatty Wei came to Hollywood, the conflict between Fatty Wei and Pablo Picasso became increasingly intensified!
Deep down in his heart, Paboson more or less looks down on Chinese directors like Fatty Wei. Even though many of Fatty Wei's movies have great box office results, Paboson still looks down on him!
In Pabotson's eyes, there were only a few truly capable Chinese people. If it was directed by a big shot like Lu Yuan, he might have obeyed and listened carefully, but Fatty Wei...
Who do you think you are?
Fatty Wei was extremely angry about Pabotson's reaction!
Who is he?
He is a fearless person, Lu Yuan is first and I am second!
Apart from Lu Yuan, he has never been convinced by anyone else in the entire film industry!
Moreover, he is very confident in his own shooting concept. He thinks it should be shot in this way!
Then, Pabotson and Fatty Wei started having anal sex!
January 5th.
For the entire day, the entire "Star Wars" crew was filled with an indescribable smell of gunpowder!
The sun sets!
Fatty Wei stared at Pabotson and clenched his fists.
After Pabotson, several famous Hollywood actors also joined Pabotson.
This Pabotson was completely provoking him and challenging his authority!
"Pabloson, what on earth are you going to do!"
"I said, I want to go on strike! We won't shoot anymore, get out of the way, let Thomson come and talk to me, you are not qualified!"
"What did you say!" Fatty Wei had a very gloomy expression.
Since the establishment of "Remote", Fatty Wei has always been a very arrogant person.
He had never suffered such contempt and injustice!
"I say, you, an assistant director, and a Chinese assistant director at that, you have no right to order me around, you're nobody!" Pabotson stared at Fatty Wei.
"Damn it!" Fatty Wei rushed forward, ready to teach Pabotson a lesson!
He was furious.
This foreigner!
He really endured him for a long time!
"No, Director Wei, don't do it, don't... There's an old Chinese saying, if you have something to say, talk it over nicely, if you have something to say, talk it over nicely..."
However, just as he was about to throw a punch, Thomson, the peacemaker, finally got out of the car, exhausted, and hurried over.
He just went home to deal with his wife's childbirth, and within two days, he received news that the entire crew had fallen out...
He was startled and rushed over immediately.
Seeing the confrontation between Fatty Wei and Pablo Son...
He was confused.
"Director Thomson, you're here at the right time! If this Chinese assistant director is here, I won't shoot anymore. It's up to you!" Pabotson stared at Fatty Wei and glanced at Thomson coldly!
He felt that this Chinese assistant director had never given him the respect he deserved and didn't take him seriously, so he was going to teach this Chinese director a lesson.
"Ah... Director Wei, Mr. Pabotson, how about this, can we be a little more harmonious, I think..." Thomson was sweating profusely as he looked at the people behind Pabotson. He was a little panicked for a moment.
This was the first time he had encountered such a thing.
We can't offend Pablo Schwarzenegger. After all, we can't just scrap all the filming of Star Wars and start over again, right?
Fatty Wei cannot be offended either.
after all……
What about the boss’s brother? How could I offend him?
We can't offend both sides, this is...
"Director Thomson!" Fatty Wei turned his head and looked at Thomson coldly.
"Ah, in..." After hearing Fatty Wei's voice, Thomson subconsciously shrank his head.
"There are many things I don't want to tell Mr. Lu, do you understand? Mr. Lu is very busy, and I don't want these little things to disturb him."
"Ah, Director Wei, what you mean is..."
"Anyone who breaks the 'remote' rules will be advised to leave 'remote'! Mr. Thomson, you have violated the 'remote' rules even if you paid for it out of your own pocket, did you know that? Him! And a few of them, I hope you can get them out. We can find new actors and reshoot the movie. As for the other wasted funds, I can pay for it myself. A director who has less say than an actor, what kind of director is he? Mr. Thomson, how can you be the chief director!" Although Fatty Wei tried his best to suppress his anger, his voice was still cold.
"This..." Thomson was a little frightened by Fatty Wei's aura, and then he remembered the many provocations from Pabotson in the crew before. He finally took a deep breath and looked at Pabotson: "Mr. Pabotson, Director Wei is right! I hope you can be a little considerate of us and don't make things awkward for everyone in the end."
"What! Thomson! What do you mean! What are you going to do!" Pabotson stared at Thomson fiercely and unexpectedly felt unbelievable.
"According to the contract we signed, you have actually completely violated the terms of the contract. I now even have the right to demand compensation from you!"
"Thomson, do you know what I represent? Do you know what kind of existence you have offended?"
Pablo Schneider really wanted to say that Thomson had offended the future best actor.
But after thinking for a long time, he still didn't say it.
"I don't know. I will call Mr. Lu. I only know that I am sorry to Remote! I broke the rules of Remote, Mr. Pabotson. Now, I give you two choices. One is to shoot the movie well, just like everyone else, and the other is for you to unilaterally terminate the contract and compensate our crew for the economic losses!"
"You, okay, you call Lu Yuan here, I want to talk to Lu Yuan. Have you got Lu Yuan's consent for doing this? Do you know that there is a big company in China that offered a higher price than you to invite me? Do you know that if I go to that company, I will be your opponent in the future? If I go to that company, what kind of blow will you suffer?" Pabotson pointed at Thomson and threatened.
Thomson took a deep breath.
From the perspective of the overall situation, he naturally knew it.
This is indeed a difficult problem.
but……
At this time...
"Hahaha!" Fatty Wei suddenly laughed, and suddenly he laughed very happily, and his laughter was extremely creepy.
"What are you laughing at!" Pabotson stared at Fatty Wei.
"Nothing!" Fatty Wei glanced at Pabotson, then took out his phone and called Lu Yuan.
When he told Lu Yuan what had happened, his language was quite vulgar, and most of the adjectives he used were swear words like "fuck", "damn", and "this bastard looks down on people".
In fact, Fatty Wei was really angry!
He has never been treated like this before!
After Fatty Wei finished speaking, Lu Yuan was silent for a while.
Then...
"Ahem, Director Wei, forget him. We have to be polite. I have been very polite recently. After all, our identities are different from what they were before. We have to be polite and have good quality... After all, you are the best director, and you still need to improve your personal quality... What the hell do you mean by this!" Lu Yuan criticized!
"I...I know." Fatty Wei lowered his head in shame, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head.
yes!
Now that my identity is different, I often have to pay attention to the public impact.
He couldn't lower himself like that.
At this moment...
"Who is this Pabloson?"
"Ah?" Fatty Wei was stunned.
"The earth will not rotate without him? This is a unilateral breach of contract on his part. Just terminate the contract with him and let him go wherever he wants! Although the penalty is not high, it is just right to use it for reshoots. By the way, you said he also instigated a few people to rebel together? Let them pay the penalty and get out! Tell him not to complain in real life. If you want to curse, go online. It's very annoying to complain like this in real life. You say it has bad effects? What bad effects can there be? Damn it, who does he think he is... Wait, cough, cough, sorry, I'm rude, you have to be polite, right! That's it, let's talk to them nicely and ask them to get out. We must use the word please..."
Fatty Wei turned on the speaker, so Lu Yuan's voice was very clear.
Fatty Wei had a complicated expression.
this……
It's called...
polite?
Fatty Wei suddenly understood!
As for the rest of us…
“???” Thomson was confused and didn’t understand.
“???” Pabotson was also confused.
What does this mean?
He didn't understand either.
Lu Yuan said this in English.
Among those present, only Fatty Wei could understand Lu Yuan’s English.
after all……
The two words "get out" are pronounced separately as "get out" and "get out". Who can understand this kind of self-made English?
And there is also the forcing and lailai...
This kind of word...
If you put it in English, it's very vulgar and obscene...
and……
Or inexplicably obscene...
After listening to this, Fatty Wei turned around and looked at them.
"Mr. Lu's intention is to ask us to leave so that we can reshoot the movie... so that your breach of contract King Kong can make a movie for us."
"You! Doesn't Lu Yuan know what my leaving means? I'm the future Oscar winner, and you know China..."
Pablo's eyes widened.
I couldn't believe it, but I was also extremely angry.
Pablo's words are very serious.
Lu Yuan heard it on the other end of the phone.
Then……
"Is the Oscar winner so awesome? You're just a nominee. Don't keep talking about the Oscar winner all day long. Although the Oscar nomination is awesome, in my opinion, it's just... wait, no, I suddenly remembered that I was also nominated for the Oscar winner in March... I can also say that I'm the future Oscar winner. Don't use such pretentious things to show off, okay? Come to China, Mr. Xu? Okay, go find him... I'm not bragging, Hollywood didn't screw me, can Mr. Xu and other Chinese companies screw me together? Even if they do screw me, I'll..." On the other end of the phone, Lu Yuan wanted to say, at worst I can go back to cook, I've made money and have ways out everywhere, but then he thought about it and shook his head after feeling that his momentum seemed a little weak.
You can't say that!
He has to keep up that arrogant attitude!
Damn it!
They are bullying their own people like this, and you still expect me to hold it in?
“…”
“…”
Pablo was at a loss again.
Pabloson still didn't understand the meaning of pretending to be cool and turning over a new leaf...
He thought Lu Yuan's use of the English word "grass" and some pretentious words were obscene and vulgar.
In short, he basically understood it!
And he felt he was being scolded.
At this time...
Fatty Wei hung up the phone.
Then……
He looked at Pablo Son with a smile.
"Mr. Pabotson... Mr. Lu has been reminding us to be polite, so I am also being polite. Let's put it this way, we ask you to get out! Also, please pay our liquidated damages. Of course, other places, please get out as well, and support our liquidated damages!"
Fatty Wei smiled brightly.
As brilliantly as a gentleman, he gestured gracefully to Pablo.
"You, you, you! Well, don't regret it!" Pabotson was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Please don't regret it!"
"this……"
…
China.
"What? Lu Yuan cursed?"
"Scolded Pabloson?"
"Good, good, you are indeed young and energetic. Very good, very good! Hahaha!"
"Let Pabotson come over! I can help with the liquidated damages. As for the others? Let them come as well. We need to create a big hype! We need a big publicity!"
“…”
After Xu Hong finished the call, his face was full of smiles.
but……
Just at this moment, Shen Lianjie knocked on the door and walked in.
"Mr. Xu..."
"Director Shen, what's wrong?"
"Mr. Xu, I... "Warframe" is a big production, I may not be able to afford it..." Shen Lianjie looked at Xu Hong with a complicated expression.
"Director Shen, don't belittle yourself. I still admire your talent."
"Mr. Xu, I want to take a break... I'm a little tired, and..." Shen Lianjie looked up at Xu Hong.
"Director Shen, are you questioning my decision and think that what I did was not right?" Xu Hong suddenly stared at Shen Lianjie.
"No, I just think... the hype is too big, and there's no need for us to keep following someone like Lu Yuan..."
"Are you afraid of him?"
"I... I have tried this before, and Hollywood couldn't do anything to Lu Yuan, but we in China..."
"Before, you were poor, and you didn't know what capital meant. Besides, the powerful big companies in Hollywood didn't really make any move. Although Lu Yuan has a little reputation in Hollywood now, he is not yet valued by big companies... In fact, Lu Yuan couldn't touch their foundation, but in China, Lu Yuan touched their foundation!"
"..." Shen Lianjie was silent.
He saw confidence and arrogance in Xu Hong's eyes.
He sighed deep inside.
Maybe, he is right?
"Director Shen, I cannot change my decision. Besides, you must shoot Warframe and shoot it well. Once you shoot it well, I will not treat you unfairly. Go down!"
"yes……"
After leaving Xu Hong's office, Shen Lianjie felt unusually uneasy deep down in his heart...
A person's name.
The shadow of the tree.
He looked back at Joaquin's sign again.
Then...
Closed his eyes.
Joaquin's future...
What will happen?
