Chapter 224

An office.

From his subordinate departments, Zhuke soon got the relevant information of James Huang (Huang Yiyu).

Huang Yiyu was born in Xiangjiang, China in 1959. At the age of 10, his family immigrated to the United States. He is a Chinese American director, screenwriter and producer.

In 1985, he wrote the youth comedy the boy next door; In 1987, the crime drama "dragon and tiger youth team" was premiered; In 1993, he participated in the production of science fiction TV series X-Files; In 1996, he participated in the screenplay creation of the science fiction crime series "chasing the murderer in the Millennium";

In fact, as he said, he is a director.

However, the main identity is a screenwriter.

In the United States, it's not easy to become a director of cinema and let the film production company spend millions or even tens of millions of dollars to invest in your movies and dreams.

How can you convince them?!

Even James Cameron, the famous truck driver, who was so talented that he could not find a way to shoot terminator, was finally able to shoot terminator successfully because he was favored by a female director.

And the woman who helped her was Katherine Bigelow.

Later she became Cameron's wife, and now she is an ex-wife.

Therefore, as many people have said, Cameron's success in becoming terminator is due to other factors. After all, who helped her, Katherine Bigelow, to become his wife.

Many things are not explained clearly!

As a Chinese American director and screenwriter, it is difficult for James Huang to become a cinema director in a country with serious racial discrimination.

"Kevin Fitch, I think the script of" death is coming "is good. Talk to him. If it's OK, give him a chance."

Zhuke said calmly.

Zhuke is a capitalist. All the people who can bring benefits are "friends".

"Yes, boss."

Man, that's the Death movie!

Looking at Hollywood in the 21st century, it is a well-known horror film series that can be compared with the series of movies such as "electric saw", "fatal bend" and so on.

By 2020, it has shot six films in one fell swoop, "death is coming.".

The box office performance is not bad.

"Once upon a time, I wanted to copy the movie" death is coming ", but I found that the script existed as early as 93, which is the backup script of Fox TV station" X-Files "

"Because of the financial problem, I didn't have much money at that time, so I chose to shoot" Lola Run ", so I missed" death is coming. "

"But fate is so strange!"

"If you want to plant flowers, you can't grow them; if you don't want to plant willows, you can't grow them.". Today, it's delivered to the door by itself. "

"If I miss it again, isn't it stupid?"

Zucker laughed as he thought about it.

...

The next morning.

James Huang's home.

"Hello, who is it?"

"You're Kevin Fitch, vice president of Wald pictures?"

"There's time, of course there's time. I'll go there now. OK, OK."

When James Wong received a call from Wald pictures, he was immediately shocked and then beamed with joy.

In other words, it's not easy to get the favor of film companies and become a director of cinema.

Director this profession, it is a lot of people extravagant things!

That afternoon, at.

James Huang signed a contract with Wald pictures for "death is coming.".

First of all, James Huang sold the script and related copyright of "death is coming" to Wald pictures for $70000.

(he himself bought the script from the original playwright and spent $55000. He didn't lose money.)

Although James Huang lost the copyright of "death is coming", he also got the identity of film director of "death is coming".

$20 million!

This is the production cost of "death is coming" given by Wald pictures!

"Mr. Huang, please wait patiently. The film is expected to be officially approved in December. If it goes well, shooting will start early next year." Kevin Fitch made a commitment.

"Thank you."

Although James Huang (Huang Yiyu) is just a new director now, in the future, he will also gain a great reputation in Hollywood.

In 2001, he supervised and directed the sci-fi action film "cosmic pursuit", starring Jet Li;

However, there are also times when he is in danger.

An American version of "seven dragon balls" with a production cost of more than 100 million US dollars, that is, the movie in which Fage plays tortoise fairy, directly hits the box office, causing heavy losses to investment companies.

Since then, Huang Yiyu has lost the trust of big companies, and there is no chance to direct A-line Hollywood production.

Hollywood is like that!

Whether it's an actor or a director, if you screw up a big production of hundreds of millions of dollars, you're bound to drop to the bottom, and it's hard to get a chance to participate in A-class big production.

Soon.

Zhuke learned that the company successfully won the "death is coming" news.

"Fatal bend, human clearance plan, and now" death is coming ", I'm going to follow the path of Lion Gate film to become a big horror movie player!"

"Eh?"

"Before I know it, I've cut off the new line."

In recent years, the new line film industry is really in the limelight.

"Blade" and "rush hour" have both made the box office more than 100 million in North America this year. And "death is coming" if it develops according to the original track of time and space, it will also be included in the bag of new line pictures. If you add in the future series of the Lord of the rings and hobbit, the performance of the new line is really amazing!

Of course, the new line film industry is also known as the "darkest" film company in Hollywood because of a series of problems of withholding directors and actors' salaries.

........

Jin Shuguang music production company, which is the second stop of Zhuke's tour.

"Welcome, boss."

Domino, who got the news early in the morning, immediately gave Zhuke a big bear hug when he saw Zhuke coming.

Well, actually, Zucker is a little bit resistant to this bear hug.

After all, the whole group knows that domino, the director of Jin Shuguang music, is a woman. No, to be exact, he has publicly declared himself a "gay".

Eminem, Beyonce, and other members of the true destiny group also showed great enthusiasm when they met Zhuke.

They are famous singers because of the platform of "talent show". They are very grateful to Zhuke.

Eminem has become the pillar of Jin Shuguang music. The first record released last year has sold 35 million copies worldwide so far;

In June of this year, his second solo album was also fruitful.

In just over four months, it has sold 18 million copies. Even if it can't surpass the first album, it's really great;

He is a real elder brother of Jin Shuguang music!

The women's idol group "true destiny" composed by Beyonce and others has developed well in more than a year.

Their first album, that is, has sold 8 million copies.

With the power of the whole Jin Shuguang entertainment group, their star path is already magnanimous. The second album is also ready for release.

"Boss, I'd like to introduce you to a new person, a potential new person I've tapped from other companies - Britney Spears." Domino said.

Zhuke nodded. He is very good at meeting and encouraging new people.

what the fuck!

Zhuke, who didn't care much, was shocked to see the young and beautiful Britney Spears standing in front of him.

"Lying trough, dominoes are powerful!"

"Britney Spears, the future famous Britney Spears, is the most famous female singer of pop music in the world."

"Her future fame is more famous than Taylor Swift!"

"The number one record seller in the world in the 21st century is enough to explain everything!"

Zucker was shocked.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Wald." Sweetie is very enthusiastic.

"The first watch" is presented.
