"Red Dead Redemption" movies are not only popular in Los Angeles, but also in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, Atlanta... these cities are also very popular.

Many newspapers have reported.

"The story of "Red Dead Redemption" is very unique. It is not like building a homeland, fighting with Indians, or discovering gold mines, robbing and murdering each other. I think this movie has created a new category. It's called a'Western Chivalrous Movie'."

"Guns, horses, the west, a few whistles, the back of a man leaving, this is the west in my mind. The protagonist is a bounty hunter, a ranger, and a prodigal son. Fighting for chivalry, showing a unique charm , Redefining Western films."

"Marisa is beautiful, her singing is more beautiful, Scarborough Fair is a song that makes people never tire of hearing, even if it is just for the end of the credits, Marisa's song is worthy of you to walk into the cinema, I hope Ava Gard If Miss Na can make a record, I will definitely buy it."

The reporter interviewed the audience after watching the movie.

The audience's evaluation of "Red Dead Redemption" is also very high.

"I like this movie."

"This movie is so enjoyable and hearty. Jon killed two waves of forces alone. It's simply too powerful."

"Marissa is so beautiful. Her singing is more beautiful. It feels better to watch her singing than to listen to the record. Even to watch her sing for the last few minutes, I am willing to buy a ticket to go into the cinema again."

The last shot of Ava singing, similar to later generations, has never been seen by people now, and has no resistance to this form.

With newspaper propaganda and the audience’s reputation, the popularity of "Red Dead Redemption" has continued, and the attendance rate has remained high in the past week.

Meyer Manor.

A party is being held here, and many stars come over. Ava Gardner is wearing a slim and mopping evening dress tonight, with a graceful and radiant figure.

At the moment she was surrounded by many people.

The last time I attended the Meyer Manor party, no one knew who Ava was, except that she was a beautiful female companion brought by others, and this time she became the focus.

The success of "Red Dead Redemption" made her one of the stars.

Now she has also become a sought-after object by others.

Meyer looked at Ava in the distance and smiled and said to Hardy: "Hadi, you have found a treasure. With Ava's **** beauty and acting skills, I believe she will become a big star in the future."

"Everyone knows that Mr. Meyer is the most powerful star-making giant in Hollywood. The people introduced by MGM, Gable, Crawford, Vivien, Garbo, and Qusser, which one is not a superstar." Hardy said. .

Meyer laughed haha.

This is indeed his achievement.

"Hadi, Red Dead Redemption has been a good box office. According to current trends, the box office is expected to hit 8 million. It is now November. Red Dead Redemption is likely to become this year's box office champion."

"We win-win, don't we?" Hardy said with a smile.

"Mr. Meyer, I have asked the company to declare this year's Golden Globe Awards and Oscars, and I hope Mr. Meyer can help by that time." Hardy said.

Later Meyer has many titles, one of which is "Father of Oscar".

In 1926, Meyer proposed that filmmakers unite and call for the establishment of a trade union, and at the same time, they would compare films.

In this way, Meyer became the chairman of the committee of the ‘American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’, which later became the Oscar.

Meyer sat in the chair of the committee for 30 years. He didn't retreat until the 1950s. When Hardy applied for an Oscar for his film, he must greet Meyer.

"The committee selection is always fair. This is the most attractive part of Oscars, isn't it?" Meyer said lightly.

"Indeed." Hardy smiled and nodded.

Sometimes the dialogue between big people is so delicate, Hardy said his request, Meyer did not refuse.

"Is there any new plan recently, MGM can cooperate with HD Pictures." Meyer said.

"It does. I made two scripts. One is called "Song in the Rain", which is a musical drama. I let people estimate it. The production cost is about 1.5 million."

"The other script is called "Across the World". It is an urban thief movie, and the cost is estimated to be 2 million."

Meyer immediately became interested.

"Hadi, tell me about these two films."

Hardy first talked about Song in the Rain.

"This film tells the story of two silent film stars and a female voice actor who is not very beautiful."

"As the technology matures and sound movies appear, the female star has a beautiful appearance, but her voice is very unpleasant. The company found her a voice actor with a good voice and a good singing, and the story unfolded among these few people."

Hardy tells the whole story structure again, emotional entanglement, male stars do not love beautiful female stars, but fall in love with plain-looking voice actresses.

At work, Tang and Casey are very affectionate, Linna is jealous, and stalking everything, and finally the big star and the small voiceover walk together.

Complete the Cinderella template.

After hearing this, Meyer nodded, "It's a good story. I think it must be a good-looking movie. Let's talk about the Grand Theft Auto movie."

"The name of the urban thief movie is "Across the World". A robber adopted three orphans, two men and a woman, and trained them into art robbers."

"The beginning was a clever theft scene, which made the stealing play superb. Later, when they stolen a famous painting in an old castle, they were attacked and the three were separated..."

Hardy basically complied with the story of Fa Ge Hong Gu spreading all over the world, because that movie, changing to an American is not against the peace.

Meyer listened with gusto, thinking of the thrilling theft scenes, anti-theft mechanism, and unlocking techniques designed by Hardy in his mind. He felt that the shooting would be very attractive to the audience.

After Hardy finished speaking, Meyer looked at Hardy and said, "Hadi, I am very optimistic about the two movies you mentioned. How about our cooperation?"

"Of course it's good." Hardy agreed very simply.

"Do you have any thoughts about the actors in these two films?" Meyer asked.

"The actor of Song in the Rain, I think I can ask Johnny Fontaine to play. He is a well-known singer in the United States. As for the female lead voice actor, I think Judy Garland can be played."

Hardy's favor is not only the favor of Judy Garland Johnny Fontaine, but also the favor of the old godfather.

Meyer smiled, "Hehehe, a plain-looking female voice actor, this role Judy Garland is indeed suitable."

"As for the actors who cross the world, I want to use Ava for the heroine."

Hearing Hardy mentioned Ava, Meyer glanced at the tall woman in the crowd in the distance. It was normal for Hardy to hold his own woman.

"As for the male number one, I think Gregorian Parker is very suitable. The male number two is not selected for the time being. You can find one among the other actors. You can be young and handsome." Hardy said.

Gregory Parker is 30 years old this year. Last year he was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor for his role in "Doctor Edward" and he has just started to gain momentum.

Meyer also felt that Gregory Parker's role as the male number one was very suitable.

"It's settled. Let's work together on these two films. As for the details, let our subordinates negotiate." Meyer said.

"no problem."

Hardy smiled and raised his cup, and touched Meyer. The two reached a verbal agreement.

The party is over.

Hardy and Ava drove away. Ava sat in the co-pilot and looked at the man. "I think you talked with Mr. Meyer all night, what else?"

"About the new movie." Hardy said.

"Are you ready to shoot a new movie again?" Ava asked quickly.

"Yup."

"That~~~"

Ava stopped talking.

Hardy smiled.

"There is a movie called "Across the World". There is a heroine in it, which is similar to the modern thief, with a variety of styles and agility. The scene is much more than that of prostitutes. It is an absolute female number one. Are you interested in acting?" Hardy said.

"Yes~~!"

Ava kept agreeing excitedly.

"Thank you Hardy."

Ava hugged the man and kissed him.

Hardy is driving. Fortunately, the speed is slow, it is late, and there are few cars on the street, otherwise there is a possibility of a car accident.

Hardy hit the steering wheel, stepped on the brake and stopped the car on the side of the road.

Ava excitedly hugged Hardy and kept kissing, the sky thunder shook the ground, and the car swayed not long after.

......

HD Films submitted applications to the Venice Film Festival, the Golden Globes and the Oscars, and they have talks about their new film cooperation with MGM.

Hardy counted it.

About 2 million will be invested in the two departments.

Before the stock price of Wash Mining increased, Hardy asked Andy to borrow 1 million from the bank, but now it seems that it is not enough.

He has a lot of industries now.

But basically all belong to the input stage, and very few have output.

The mineral water plant is still under construction.

The auction house only spends money but does not make money.

Walsh Mining Company did not make any profit, and only borrowed 1 million from the bank using stocks.

The TV factory still owes the bank 6 million.

HD Brokers, HD Films, and "Red Dead Redemption" have a good box office, but they have to wait until next year at the earliest if they want to receive the money.

HD Security is a company that is truly on track. Now Security has signed cooperation agreements with five banks including Bank of America. The total number of HD Security now exceeds 900, all of whom are veterans who have been on the battlefield.

The security company has made money, and there are many places to spend it. Hardy did not intend to use their money. He promised Lanster that all the money earned now will be used for the development of the security company. HD Security is ready to enter the next step. San Francisco and other cities on the West Coast.

Lack of money!

Hardy let out a sigh.

Called Andy and said: "Andy, you can talk to the bank and see if you can use "Red Dead Redemption" in the future box office share and borrow 2 million US dollars."

"Okay, ask the bank here." Andy agreed and went out.

With such an economic adviser, Hardy can save most of the trouble, he doesn't need to do it himself, and he does a lot better than himself.

at this time.

The phone in Hardy's office rang and picked it up to answer. Siegel's voice came through the phone.

"Hadi, it's me."

"Mr. Siegel, how are you doing in Las Vegas recently?" Hardy asked concerned.

Siegel's voice on the phone was a little low, "Casinos, parking lots, restaurants, hotels are almost the same, but entertainment facilities are still far behind, and there is still a big gap between the resorts I envisioned."

Hardy knew that Siegel had to hurry up due to the pressure of other gangsters. He originally expected it to be completed in the middle of next year, but those gangsters waited. It's too late.

"Hadi, I'm back to Los Angeles. I'm at home now. You come to my house. I have something I want to talk to you." Siegel said.

"Okay, I'll go over now." Hardy replied.

When I drove to Beverly Hills, the car drove into Siegel’s large estate. Siegel’s estate was no worse than MGM’s owner Meyer’s estate. It occupies a few acres, even in Beverly Hills. Mansion.

Hardy walked into the living room.

The huge living room was empty and Siegel sat alone.

Seeing Hardy, Siegel’s first sentence was, "Hadi, I want to borrow money from you!"
