Rise of an Empire
Chapter 132 Martyrs
"Tell me, what do you want?" Although he couldn't stand the obscene behavior of the man in front of him, Conrad felt that there was no need to kick him out.
"I have a movie I want to shoot recently, but I haven't found a sponsor yet." Roman said with a smile.
For him, art is the eternal subject. When he married Sharon, he just took a fancy to the other person's skin that carries art.
Now, in order to pursue higher art, it is appropriate to sacrifice the artistic skin.
"You can't find a sponsor." The Duke felt a little surprised. Although the movie this kid made last time was not very interesting from his point of view, from the perspective of people in this era, it should still be very interesting. Not bad
Whether the director can make money depends mainly on whether the movie is good at the box office. The movie released on Halloween is said to be a big hit based on the box office. Logically speaking, it should not be unable to find sponsors.
"This time I want to make a literary film about my homeland, Poland," Roman said with enthusiasm.
Ok
Conrad finally understood why no one wanted to sponsor
This guy must have grown up after making a few popular movies, and he actually wants to make some kind of literary movie.
The so-called literary films are similar to those best-selling novelists who changed their profession to write ancient prose. Although in their own world they understand it as pursuing the true meaning of art, in the eyes of others, these guys are just out of their minds.
If you don't want to play popular art properly, but if you play with highbrow music, it's simply a disease of the brain.
But it doesn't matter, the Duke still approves of such a mentally ill artist.
"Tell me, how much is it?"
"Five million," Roman shouted.
"Are you crazy or am I crazy?" The Duke, who was about to write a check, raised his head in astonishment and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him in surprise.
Of course, the other party's wife is very good-looking, even in his own harem, she can reach the average level, and she is also a big star, but for five million US dollars, does he regard himself as being taken advantage of?
You know, he just bought a Phoenix girl, and it only cost one million.
The purchasing power of the U.S. dollar is huge these days. Five million U.S. dollars, if used to buy women, can buy at least a dozen golden cats with long breasts and thighs, and they are guaranteed to be virgins.
"Your Majesty Duke, five million is really the lowest price. My artistic film this time will travel to seven European countries. It will take about three years and the total investment will be at least ten million." Roman cried sincerely, That look is like that of a mourning concubine, it really makes those who see it cry and those who hear it feel sad.
Seeing Roman kneeling in front of him crying and begging, Conrad was really speechless.
From what the other party said, we can know that in order to film this so-called literary film, this guy not only sold his wife, but also spent all his savings over the years. It can be said that he was completely desperate and never thought about staying. Half way back.
"This film is so important to you." The Duke is a little confused. You said that this boy is now a director. He also has a beautiful wife at home. He is a complete winner in life. But now he is doing it for a film. The so-called ideal means going bankrupt or even giving up your wife to someone else, which is really hard to understand.
"I am a Polish. Duke, you should be very aware of the situation in Poland." Roman smiled bitterly and said lightly.
"My motherland was occupied by invaders from all walks of life thirty years ago. My beautiful motherland is still under the power of other countries. I want to use my hands to let the people of the world know a real Poland and make Poland a real Poland." "Sovereign Country" mentioned his ideal. Roman suddenly changed his wretched appearance, and his body exuded a divine light.
Well, you can't tell, but this girl is still a patriot, and the kind of patriot who can destroy her family and die as a martyr.
If this kind of person appears in historical documents, then everyone will give him a thumbs up, but if this kind of person appears next to you
Mader had better die quickly.
In the end, the Duke felt the other party's patriotic heart and finally agreed to invest five million to help Roman make the literary film to promote the Polish people and motherland.
Of course, the Duke's investment of so much money was not completely in vain.
During the years when Roman went to Europe to make movies, his beloved wife Sharon Tate was entrusted to the Duke to take care of her. After all, it was really uneasy for a petite beauty to live alone in Los Angeles.
Especially when Roman had already mortgaged his house in order to make this movie.
As for how the Duke will take care of other people's wives?
Let’s talk about it later
Although the price of five million US dollars is indeed a bit high, for Conrad, this kind of unprecedented experience is also quite curious.
He had snatched both Raven and Tina. This was really the first time that he had bought someone.
What's more, Roman's wife is also a celebrity, so spending a little money to buy it for a few years doesn't feel like a big loss.
Apart from this small episode, there are not many other ups and downs in life. After all, even the protagonist's life has its dull periods.
Conrad has been living in New York and rarely moves, so nothing weird happens.
On the other side, when Roman returned to Los Angeles ambitiously, he also went to see his wife as soon as possible.
Although he felt a little sorry in his heart, considering his ideals and love for his motherland, Poland, Roman felt that such a small sacrifice was deserved.
Although he loves his wife very much, but compared to the country, she is still slightly inferior.
"Honey, have you found a sponsor?" In a high-end residential area in Los Angeles, Sharon Tate asked happily as she looked at her husband who had rushed back after a long journey.
"Yes, I finally found a sponsor who is willing to invest." Roman said affectionately while looking at his lovely wife at home.
"Great, by the way, I have good news for you." Sharon Tate hugged Roman and leaned against his cheek.
"You're going to be a dad haha"
"What?" Roman's whole body was like a lightning strike, and he was stunned.
"Yes, I'm pregnant. It's been more than a month. You're going to be a father." Sharon Tate thought Roman was too happy and didn't react, so she quickly said it again.
"I, you"
Roman was suddenly at a loss. You must know that in order to raise the money, he had to endure the struggle of his conscience before preparing to sell his wife, but now Sharon told him that she was pregnant.
Damn this
