America's Big Hero

"Take it." Leonard Nimoy nodded and took out two video tapes from his briefcase. Norris took them intuitively and put them in the video recorder.

When the title played, Sean thought for a while and shouted loudly: "Diane, Elizabeth, come down to watch the movie!"

After yelling, Sean ignored it. Ten minutes later, the two women arrived late. Sean cast a glance, good guy, it really is a woman, and she doesn't forget to put on makeup at home.

The two women and Leonard Nimoy nodded with a smile. Although they couldn't figure out what Sean meant, they still sat quietly watching the movie.

After an hour and a half, Sean felt warm, romantic, loving, and funny, but he was more inclined to humor. He could only be said to be a female director.

After watching the movie, the sense of familiarity made Sean more certain that Jackie Chan later made a remake of it with President Gu.

"Mr. Sean, what do you think?" Leonard Nimoy asked Sean after the movie was shown.

"The culture is different. The French are romantic and undisciplined, but the Americans are more free and open. On the basis of keeping the warmth, the elements of comedy should be added." Sean commented.

"Mr. Sean, you're right, that's what I think!" Leonard Nimoy seemed a little excited. When Sean said that, he was ready to invest.

"Since it's a remake, why not just buy the copyright back, is there a problem?" Sean turned to look at Norris.

"Of course, of course no problem!" Norris assured, patting his chest.

"Director Leonard, I won't be involved in the casting of the male lead. If you entrust this movie to you, you will be solely responsible for it, but the female characters in it..."

Norris immediately introduced something in Leonard Nimoy's ear.

"If Miss Diane Lane and Miss Elizabeth Hurley are available, it would be my luck. The youth and beauty of the two are God's masterpieces, and they will definitely add a lot of color to this drama." Leonard Nimoy said with a smile.

Diane Lane smiled reservedly, while Elizabeth was completely dumbfounded, staring blankly at Sean.

Just climbed into the boss's bed, and the character came! ?

What's a fucking surprise?

Sean smiled and nodded to the two women. With Diane Lane's reputation in Hollywood now, she disdains such small productions, unless it is a literary film. If she is invited, the salary will be indispensable.

This was Sean's compensation to her. After all, from the beginning to the end, Sean never publicly admitted that Diane was his girlfriend.

Diane's salary for the first "Bank Heist" was only 10, and Sean gave her 100 million for the second "Die Hard". The 7s and 80s were the period when Hollywood actresses' salaries were low, 100. Ten thousand is already the price of a first-line actress.

Barbra Streisand, with the movie "Wonderful Girl", became the only Oscar actress with double yolks in the history of Oscars, tied with Hepburn, and her box office appeal was one of the best in that era. The most notable achievement, in 1991, only received a salary of 650 million US dollars.

For this movie, Sean will give her 150 million, the four great beauties, who are still so sensible, ahem, right, they are worth rewarding.

As for Elizabeth, after all, Sean just wanted the little girl's body, so of course he has to express it, as long as the salary is normal.

The little girl had never acted in any role before, she was a pure newcomer, and she didn't know where Norris got this bastard.

Really are……

awesome!

"Our beautiful Miss Diane is already a first-line actress, but Elizabeth has just debuted, so I would like to trouble Director Leonard to teach her a lot. I also hope that Elizabeth can have a good start in the future." Sean stood up, Smiling and shook hands with Leonard.

"Of course, of course, Mr. Sean, don't worry." Leonard said with a big smile.

"Oh, that's right." Sean suddenly remembered something, blinked and said, "Leonard, you can communicate with Katzenberg first."

"Ah!?" Leonard was a little dumbfounded, if he hadn't seen Sean blinking at him, he would have thought he heard it wrong.

Katzenberg, isn't that the top brass at Paramount?

Leonard has been working with Paramount for more than 20 years, and he is considered to be more than half of Paramount, so how could he not know him.

Just, look at the meaning now... Leonard shook his head, what the hell is wrong with Paramount?

The high-level executives jumped ship all of a sudden!

With both happy and complicated emotions, Leonard left.

The excited face next to her was flushed, and Elizabeth, who was trembling all over, jumped onto Sean and sang and screamed.

Sure enough, if you want to be in the top position, you have to sleep with the boss first. The ancients are sincere.

Elizabeth has already decided that she must use more postures to repay the boss well!

Diane Lane rolled her eyes and curled her lips, what a bitch.

But thinking of that bitch named Sharon Stone, Diane decided to endure it. In order to tie Xiao En's heart, she could only choose to win over a few allies to form the Allied Front!

……

The task of Sean coming to Los Angeles to find a captain for the media group he is about to establish is basically completed.

For the rest, Sean didn't have much to worry about, the main thing was paying for it.

Fortunately, because of the military exercise, the trading area in Cartagena has been on the right track recently, and the 4500 million US dollars in the bottom of the box was finally successfully transferred, and all of them flowed into the hands of the anti-government forces in Colombia in a short time .

The 4500 million, after some operations, were deposited in batches by several people into the branch of Sean Bank in Cartagena.

As for the legality of the source of funds, Cartagena's officials are their own family, so naturally they will not say anything.

Afterwards, Sean used a helicopter to transfer the money into the United States, which was a bit of blood.

However, as soon as this mouthful of blood came back, it was immediately arranged to go out.

2000 million will be allocated to Sean Film Company as a support for Katzenberg. At the same time, they will also shoot "Goodfellas" and purchase the copyright to shoot "Three Dads and One Baby". In addition, they will build their own studio It also costs money.

Sean approached Katzenberg to discuss it. This time, the scenes for the filming of "Goodfellas" and "Three Dads and a Baby" were all built by themselves, and they no longer rented Universal's studio.

Although this will greatly increase the cost, these villas, bars and other scenes can be used to shoot other movies in the future.

That's how the filming set was built little by little.

Address, Sean didn't choose Hollywood, let alone Los Angeles.

I remember that when "Once Upon a Time in America" ​​was filmed, the reason why it cost more than 3000 million yuan was because of the construction of a New York more than 50 years ago.

The 2000 million... well, will be enough to get started.

The reason, no money!

In fact, only Paramount and Universal still persist in Hollywood. Universal went to Burbank, and Columbia went to Carver City.

Sean ended up choosing Santa Monica.

This is not the future world yet, Xiao En plans to enclose hundreds of thousands of square meters of land first.

This thing, even if it only sells the land later, it will be very valuable!

The last 2500 million was assigned to Pete Czerny as the start-up capital for the formation of the 'American Media' group.

Well, that is the start-up capital. This amount of money is just drizzle, and it is not enough at all.

But to buy six TV stations, Sean always has to set up the shelf first!

American Media Group, this time Sean is not going to use his own name.

It can only be said that people stand at different heights at different times, and their angles of seeing problems will inevitably change.

In the past, I used my own name to name it, because I want to improve my popularity and image, which is a means to show my strength and the only way to establish my own status.

It's like the early Rockefeller Oil Company.

But now, Sean no longer needs to use the company and industry to set off himself, and he has begun to have the consciousness of being a big tree.

So, 'X Security' changed its name to 'Umbrella', so there was 'American Media'.

Well, now Sean is going to play the American card, pull the tiger's skin, and be a big banner!

The 4500 million was all arranged, and Sean suddenly felt that the money was gone and the people were happy.

Pleasure.

As for the large thermal power station in Cartagena, the garbage disposal business in New York, the supermarket chain business, the logistics center business, the purchase and construction of private manors, the Caribbean maritime military base, and the sky palace...

What the heck, what a fool, no money!

Anyway, for a while, he still didn't think of any legal means of getting money.

As for the so-called ways to get money fast are all written in the criminal law, Xiao En used to think so, but now...

Robbery, extortion, extortion, kidnapping, drug abuse... those are still too slow!

The last time I tossed at sea for a month, it was only more than 1500 million, which is not exciting at all!

Of course, it's okay to say how anxious Sean is.

The big deal is that the mortgage industry continues to lend.

Sean has never played the snake swallowing whale thing, but he has seen a lot.

When the Red Army Liverpool was bought by two American businessmen empty-handed, without spending a penny, the method was later exposed, and Sean remembers it clearly.

To put it simply, the VAM agreement.

Sign a VAM agreement with the bank, use the bank's money to buy it, and then mortgage all the property to the bank, and then slowly pay it back.

Sean should not have too many high-quality assets in his hands, and the bank is not afraid that he will not be able to get them.

As for whether Monroe Deve, the banker who manages Sean's assets, will go crazy, Sean can't control that much.

Sean was lying on a deck chair in the garden, and beside him, Diane Lane peeled grapes and fed them to Sean one by one.

Next to it, Martin Scorsese held the script of "Goodfellas" in his hand, and told Sean the idea of ​​the whole movie in his mind.

Martin Scorsese was born in New York in 1942 and personally experienced the most glorious era of the "Five Families". After becoming a director, he was very keen on shooting this kind of "gangster theme".

In 1972, he directed "Mean Streets", starring Robert De Niro, showing the story of Charlie, a descendant of Italian immigrants, living a difficult life in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, New York, trying to get rid of poverty and anxiety. It is a classic among gangster films.

In 1976, "Taxi Driver" was filmed again. The location was still in New York. A story that became a public hero.

The film won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes International Film Festival.

Oh yeah, and it's still Robert De Niro.

Later, in 1980, "Raging Bull", nominated for Best Director at the Academy Awards.

Last year, in 1985, the black comedy "After get off work" won the Best Director Award at the 39th Cannes International Film Festival.

The iron-clad Robert De Niro, the flowing heroine.

Like the love story between Feng Xiaogang and Uncle Ge.

"Very good, very artistic, like a slowly unfolding scroll, presenting the chaotic life of New York in the 50s." Xiao En praised with a smile, waving his arms as if it was real, but Diane Lian next to him Well, I'm sure that the man around me is lying again.

Like...for the last time.

"I'm glad you can say that. I'm very satisfied with this script. I feel that he is tailor-made for me." Martin Scorsese had a smile on his face, seeing Sean, he felt very happy close.

Maybe it's a problem...

"However, I have a little other idea." Sean said softly.

"You said, you are... well, you know this." Martin Scorsese almost blurted out, you are the mafia, and you are right.

Sean has also worked on four scripts, and has participated in filming, editing, etc., and now he is not just talking on paper. Combined with the plots he has seen in his previous life, he is also half of them.

brick home.

It is definitely not possible to do it yourself, and it is easy to point fingers.

"In this world, the cultural level of the vast majority of audiences is indeed limited, especially those who watch this kind of gangster movie, 99.99% of them have poor voice, what I want to say is that they have no artistic bacteria, and they definitely don't understand any picture scrolls. "

"To the judges, it's not a problem, but to those people who live at the bottom." Sean shook his head, condescendingly.

Martin Scorsese opened his mouth, and after a while, he also had to nod in agreement with Sean's statement.

Artists are bound to suffer from Wenqing disease.

(Even if I hit the street like me 40 years later...)

But in front of investors, he can't say, I make movies to win prizes, let the box office go to hell!

You bloody vampire, you ruin art!

Deng Guangrong cursed and quit the chat group.

If Martin dared to say that, Sean would hang up the old man and beat him.

The movie "Goodfellas" does have some problems in the front, the narrative time is too long, and it is not exciting enough.

"Ahead, before the protagonist Henry is imprisoned, this paragraph fully demonstrates a gangster's 'freedom' and 'reckless', wishful thinking, domineering, and brotherly loyalty."

"If it wasn't for these, there wouldn't be so many young people attracted to the life of gangsters. It is precisely because of enough passion and excitement that generations of young people will devote themselves to it."

"In this way, after the protagonist is in prison, when his wife tells him that the gang has not taken care of his family as agreed, there will be enough conflict and contrast."

"In this way, it laid the groundwork for a series of blackening of the protagonist in the future, and finally showed that gangsters, with one foot in the coffin and the other in prison, will not end well."
