The script of the movie has been sent to his email address by the system.

So Wang Mo started the printer and printed out the "Iron Man" script, then dialed Hao Mingxing's phone: "Brother Xing, are you in the company?"

Hao Mingxing said: "Just came back."

Wang Mo: "Okay, come to my office. I have something to ask you."

A long time ago, Wang Mo asked Hao Mingxing to learn English and study Western culture.

Now it finally comes in handy.

Not long after.

Hao Mingxing arrived.

After not seeing each other for a while, Hao Mingxing looked more calm and restrained than before. He seemed to be just an ordinary person, but occasionally the light bursting out from the depths of his eyes showed how extraordinary he was.

"Brother Mo, are you looking for me?"

"Um."

Wang Mo motioned for Hao Mingxing to sit down, and then said with a smile: "What have you been busy with recently?"

Hao Mingxing said: "Two things, the first is preparing to release a solo album, and the second is filming a movie recently."

Wang Mo heard this: "Movie?"

Hao Mingxing smiled and said: "Yes, it is a kung fu movie similar to "Fist of Heroes". My agent and I thought the script was pretty good, so we took it. The filming is now nearing completion and can be completed in half a month at most."

"That's not bad."

Wang Mo gave a thumbs up.

In recent times, he has rarely given Hao Mingxing and Su Xueyao songs or movies, but has allowed them to go out on their own.

So in the past year or two, Hao Mingxing and others have been looking for resources outside themselves.

With their strength and status, coupled with the influence of Yunhai Media, it can basically be said that they have the top resources in China at their disposal.

So even if Wang Mo doesn't give them songs or movie scripts, they can still thrive.

Wang Mo continued to ask: "After filming the movie, are there any other arrangements?"

Hao Mingxing nodded: "Yes, yes, but it's not a big deal."

"That's fine."

Wang Mo casually threw the "Iron Man" script over.

To clarify: all in English!

In fact, Wang Mo could also make an all-Chinese version of "Iron Man", but it would be awkward for him. What's more, the movie is set in North America, so the English version is the best choice.

When Hao Mingxing saw the dense English, he was stunned at first.

"Brother Mo, what is this?"

"New movies."

Hao Mingxing reacted instantly: "International movie?"

Wang Mo smiled and said: "That's right. You should have no problem reading the English version, right?"

"No."

Even though Hao Mingxing's psychological quality was different from ordinary people, his heartbeat was racing at this moment.

He thought about countless possibilities before coming, but he still didn't expect that Wang Mo would throw him an English version of the movie script as soon as they met. This kind of thing caught him almost off guard.

Wang Mo said: "That's fine, you have to understand the script, especially the character of the protagonist you want to play."

Hao Mingxing suppressed his excitement and asked: "Brother Mo, this movie should have a Western theme, right? Will there be any problem if I, a Chinese, play the protagonist of a movie with a Western background?"

"It doesn't matter."

Wang Mo shook his head confidently: "First, North America is a country of immigrants, so movie fans don't pay much attention to whether the protagonist has a Western face. In Hollywood movies, protagonists of almost all races have appeared: black, yellow, and white. Second, you already have a big frame and a square face. With a little makeup, you will be both domineering and restrained, making you more attractive."

Wang Mo was not exaggerating at all.

Hollywood movies do not reject oriental faces. Jet Li was a big star in Hollywood in his previous life. As for Asan and Fusang, many people became movie kings and conquered the entire Hollywood.

So as long as you have acting skills and fit the characteristics of the character, then having an oriental face is not a problem at all. Even Hao Mingxing's unique identity as a kung fu master can give him an even more mysterious aura.

Hao Mingxing had always obeyed Wang Mo's orders. When he heard this, he nodded in agreement: "Okay."

After saying that, he picked up the script and exited the office.

After Hao Mingxing left, Wang Mo made another phone call.

This time the person he contacted was Peng Chen, the director of "The Wandering Earth".

Peng Chen is a well-known director in the Chinese film industry. Because he has directed several science fiction movies before and has relevant experience, plus his good skills, he was recommended by Yuan Xiong.

Because he was only half a tool, Wang Mo quickly decided to let the other party direct.

Now it seems that the other party executed it well.

After answering the call.

Wang Mo got straight to the point: "Director Peng, do you know any directors in Hollywood?"

Peng Chen suddenly heard this question and was stunned for a moment before smiling bitterly: "Mr. Wang, I do know them, but they don't know me."

have to!

Wang Mo patted his head and felt that he had thought too much.

Domestic directors, especially small sci-fi directors like Peng Chen who have not made any big achievements, are probably not familiar with top domestic directors, let alone Hollywood directors.

hang up the phone.

Wang Mo slapped his head hard.

He himself is really showing off his brain.

Last time I was in New York, I made a lot of connections.

It's just that he has always had an inherent mindset and has not thought of this.

If you don’t need it now, when will you wait?

After digging out the thick pile of business cards I had collected, I discovered that there are indeed several Hollywood directors. It’s just that there are no directors who are good at shooting science fiction movies.

Think about it.

Wang Mo contacted Kenneth.

Kenneth was extremely excited when he received Wang Mo's call: "Hi! Master Wang Mo, although I received your call at one o'clock in the morning, my heart is as enthusiastic as a volcano."

"Ahem."

Wang Mo's face was full of embarrassment.

He forgot about the time difference. It was noon here, but it was late at night in North America: "Well, I'm sorry..."

Kenneth: "No, no, no, you must not say such things, I will feel guilty."

Obviously, Kenneth has long been a fan of Wang Mo.

Wang Mo was no longer polite. He asked: "Mr. Kenneth, can you introduce me to one or two Hollywood directors? The kind who make science fiction films."

As the king of AMC theaters, Kenneth almost blurted out: "Of course no problem! This is just a small matter. In two days, at most, I can have Clement and Thompson visit you. I I think they will be very happy to receive your invitation, Mr. Wang Mo."

Wang Mo was startled.

Both of these two are among the top science fiction directors in Hollywood today.

Kenneth could actually attract them with just one sentence.

But when I think about it, it seems natural.

No matter how awesome the director is, he can only be obedient in front of Kenneth who has the lifeblood of their theater chain. Coupled with Wang Mo's own status in the music industry, Kenneth's words are really not an exaggeration.

In addition, international directors do not cover the sky with one hand like they do in China.

Unless they reach the heights of Cameron, many top directors do not have much power, and are not even as powerful as producers. They are just part-time workers at best.

The ones who really have a say are investment companies and theater bosses like Kenneth.

However, of course Wang Mo would not be so condescending. He quickly said: "Mr. Kenneth, just give me their contact information. I don't have anything big to do. I just have a science fiction movie I want to shoot. But I haven't chosen a director yet. . So I want to consult with the other party whether they are interested in taking over the director's position."

Kenneth heard this and said: "Master Wang Mo, do you want to make an international movie?"

Wang Mo responded: "Yes."

Kenneth hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you have a film company in Hollywood?"

Wang Mo shook his head: "No. But I have already registered a company branch in North America. It is very simple to set up a film company."

Kenneth said seriously: "Master Wang Mo, it's not that simple. If you just want to make an international-themed movie, regardless of the release schedule, then you can do whatever you want. But if you want to compete at the global box office after the movie is released, , then it would be better to set up a Hollywood film company."

Wang Mo was puzzled: "Why?"

Kenneth explained: "If your movie is not produced in Hollywood, it will naturally be subject to many restrictions when it is released in North America. Film scheduling, distribution and even subsequent competition for awards will all be affected. Because there is a Hollywood movie in North America Protection clauses. Only films produced by Hollywood will receive top-notch North American resources. Other film companies, especially foreign films, will have much less resources to compete for many Oscar awards."

With that said, Kenneth explained the detailed rules about movies in North America.

Only then did Wang Mo understand why all North American film companies were established in Hollywood.

It turns out that in addition to the concentration of resources, there are so many hidden secrets.

Wang Mo pondered for a moment before speaking out: "According to your opinion, if I want to set up a film company in Hollywood, it will not be easy either?"

Kenneth said: "That's true. Because Hollywood is to protect the local film industry in North America. Therefore, North American laws stipulate that Hollywood film companies must be controlled by local people. Master Wang Mo, as a Chinese, there is no way in Hollywood Register a company.”

Wang Mo was stunned.

But soon, Kenneth smiled: "But you don't have to worry, the rules are dead, but the people are alive."

Wang Mo raised his eyebrows: "Do you have any idea?"

"That's right!"

Kenneth is obviously familiar with the industry: "There are too many precedents for this kind of thing in Hollywood. After all, big consortiums from countries like Europe, Asan, Fuso and even Bangzi cannot just watch and watch as they are unable to set up companies in Hollywood. So. They all have their own tricks. The simplest way is: you can find a local person in North America to control a Hollywood company, and then sign an agreement with the other party, so that you can actually control it behind the scenes. A Hollywood company."

Indirect holding.

The most common approach in business.

Wang Mo nodded secretly and said with a smile: "It is indeed a good idea."

Kenneth continued: "But if you want to find such a person temporarily and acquire a Hollywood company, the process will be too long. If you trust me, Master Wang Mo, I have three Hollywood companies under my name. I can give it up." One of the companies will give it to you. I am still the controlling shareholder, but I will transfer all the shares to you through another channel. "What do you think?"

As a theater king, how could he not have his own film company?

Wang Mo was slightly startled again.

If Kenneth didn’t have bad intentions, then this favor was too great.

But Kenneth most likely has no bad intentions.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Mo still said: "Mr. Kenneth, why are you doing this?"

Kenneth smiled brightly and said frankly: "Because you are my idol, Master Wang Mo. You let me hear how beautiful the piano master's performance is, which allowed me to fulfill my lifelong wish and also allowed me to show off in front of celebrities." "

Wang Mo shook his head and laughed.

From what Kenneth said, he was a little regretful that the company didn't have much. Could this guy still be thinking of giving it away to a high-end Hollywood company?

He was a little lucky in his heart, it was really a good thing to have such a crazy fan like Kenneth.

Think for a moment.

Wang Mo said: "In that case, I will ask someone from my company to contact you to settle the matter. However, we will not completely control the company. I will ask the company to give you 20% of the shares. What do you think?"

Since the other person has been so helpful to me, I won't be stingy.

Kenneth didn't think much of it.

He agreed without hesitation: "No problem! But, Master Wang Mo, do you want to give this Hollywood company a name? I can revise it in advance, and when the matter is settled, I can start filming movies directly."

name?

Wang Mo pondered for a moment and spit out a name: "Let's call it 'Marvel' Pictures."

He filmed "Iron Man" not just for a science fiction movie.

Marvel?

Kenneth looked confused, this name is a bit strange.

comics?

power?

He shook his head, feeling a little confused about Wang Mo's thinking, but still nodded: "Okay."

After the two ended the call.

Wang Mo called Yuan Xiong almost immediately and told him what happened in detail. Then he smiled and said, "Brother Xiong, I'll leave the rest to you."

"..."

Yuan Xiong is completely stupid.

He didn't expect that he had just not seen Wang Mo for such a short period of time, but Wang Mo would actually create a science fiction movie and target the international market.

If this was not enough, Wang Mo actually got a Hollywood film company through Kenneth.

"God!"

Yuan Xiong felt like he was going to worship God, because according to Wang Mo's narration, although Kenneth said that it was easy to get a Hollywood company. But Yuan Xiong knew very well that it was almost unbelievably difficult to control a Hollywood company behind the scenes. After all, Hollywood unions are not fools.

Generally speaking, only international giant consortiums like Europe and Asan can control Hollywood companies through various means.

With Yunhai Media’s current capabilities, it is still far from being able to do so.

But Wang Mo got it done with just one phone call.

Seeing Yuan Xiong's expression change, Wang Mo thought he had given Kenneth too many shares, so he said: "Brother Xiong, after all, Kenneth has done a lot, so 20% of the shares are necessary. If you think it is too much, there is nothing you can do. "

Yuan Xiong spread his hands helplessly: "I'm not thinking about this."

20% of the shares is too much!

If it could control a Hollywood company, let alone give Kenneth 20%, even 49% of the shares, Yunhai Media would be ecstatic.

Don't say anything else.

Yuan Xiong recently spent a lot of effort registering a branch of Yunhai Media in Beautiful Country.

Those official guys in the beautiful country have always been extremely harsh and strict on the management of Chinese companies, and often sanction any of our companies in North America for various unwarranted reasons. Just like the hatred of seizing his wife. Therefore, if Yunhai Media wants to register a Hollywood company by itself, the probability is almost zero.

"I will go to North America immediately to discuss the company's affairs with Kenneth."

Yuan Xiong didn't elaborate, just dropped a word and left in a hurry.

This is a big deal.

So even though he had just returned to China not long ago, he still had to go there again.

Yuan Xiong just left.

Wang Mo's cell phone rang. It was a transoceanic call, indicating that it was from North America.

"who?"

Definitely not Kenneth.

Because I have Kenneth’s phone number saved on my phone.

He answered the call and heard a man's voice with a thick western North American accent: "Hello... hello, is this Mr. Wang Mo?"

Wang Mo: "It's me, hello."

The man's tone suddenly became respectful: "Master Wang Mo, I am Clement. I heard from Mr. Kenneth that you want to make a science fiction movie?"

Ouch!

Wang Mo was shocked.

Kenneth is really awesome, he actually got Clement, a big Hollywood director, to call him so quickly.

The key is that it's still late at night in North America.

While thinking about it, I responded again and again: "Yes."

Clement said: "Have you finished writing the script? If so, I wonder if you can let me have a look at the script. If the script is suitable, I will be happy to serve you."

Clement was very careful when he said this.

In fact, he was not looking forward to the science fiction script Wang Mo came up with at all.

God!

Are there any good science fiction movies in China?

No!

Not even one!

So he was sure that Wang Mo couldn't come up with any good quality script.

To put it bluntly, even if the script is good, it probably has strong Chinese characteristics and is not suitable for the international stage at all, nor is it suitable for a Hollywood director to direct it.

It's just that he couldn't afford to offend Kenneth or Wang Mo, so he spoke very tactfully.

Wang Mo had a clear mind and knew what Clement was thinking. He smiled and said: "No problem, I can send you the script now. Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. If you If you don’t like the script, just reject it without any psychological burden.”

Clement was greatly relieved when he heard this.

He quickly said: "Thank you Mr. Wang Mo for your understanding. But even if the script is not suitable, if you need my help at that time, I can do my best."

"Um."

Wang Mo knew that the other party was showing goodwill.

He smiled, gave a few words of humility and then sent the script of "Iron Man" over.

Just finished the fairy tale.

Another overseas call came, this time from Thompson, another Hollywood science fiction director.

After Wang Mo also explained it, he also sent him the "Iron Man" script.

Far North America.

Clement rubbed his sleepy eyes and shook his head helplessly.

Next to him, his wife asked: "What difficulties did you encounter?"

Clement smiled bitterly: "Kenneth, that idiot fan, gave us problems in order to please his idol. This puts me in a dilemma. Fortunately, Mr. Wang Mo is easier to talk to, otherwise I really don't know what to do. Is it really possible for me to direct a Chinese science fiction movie?”

The wife smiled slightly: "I heard that Master Wang Mo is a legendary figure. I have also heard many Chinese friends in the company mention his "Kung Fu" movie, saying that it was shot very well. Maybe the science fiction scripts he wrote are also unique. ? So my suggestion is that you might as well take a look at the script that the other party sends you. After all, you once said, don’t look down on the script that anyone sends you, even if the other party is a homeless person, this is the key to your success. "

"Baby, you're right."

Clement kissed his wife, put on his clothes and stood up: "Anyway, I'm not sleepy anymore, so I'll listen to you."

Turn on the lights.

turn on computer.

Download the script from your mailbox.

Then he took a fancy to the name of the movie script at a glance.

"Hey! "Iron Man"? That's an interesting name."

As a top science fiction director, just a name brings to mind many imaginary scenes for him.

Then, he put on his glasses and looked carefully.

The script tells the story of Tony Stark, a genius inventor who used his wisdom and technology to create an advanced suit of armor after being kidnapped by terrorists and transformed into Iron Man. He uses this set of equipment to protect the world from evil forces, while also experiencing a story of growth and transformation in his heart.

"Huh?"

Clement was casual at first, but soon his eyes widened.

The story actually had no Chinese style at all as he had guessed, but a typical North American hero plot.

Especially the hero in the script is a superhero that makes his blood boil just by reading the script.

Domineering style,

Incredible technology.

Powerful abilities.

He was amazed and pleasantly surprised by many places.

The super exciting plot and powerful technology turn the protagonist into an omnipotent Iron Man.

Thinking about it makes my blood boil.

Especially Tony's words "I am Iron Man." at the press conference at the end gave Clement goosebumps.

As a top science fiction director, he almost immediately judged one thing: this script was not as bad as he had imagined before, but was actually excellent! Very excellent!

Even if placed in Hollywood, such a script would be dazzling enough!

"How about it?"

Seeing that Clement didn't respond for a long time, his wife asked aloud.

When Clement heard his wife's voice, he realized that he had read the script for more than two hours without knowing it.

He raised his head and said seriously: "You are right, this script is very good. Not only is it very creative in terms of plot, but it also fits the characteristics of Hollywood blockbusters in terms of story."

Wife: "What do you think?"

Clement took a deep breath: “I want to film it!”

There was a pause.

He added: "Today's Hollywood movies are all fake and empty. In other words, they excessively pursue visual special effects but abandon the most basic plot. Therefore, these movies may seem to have stunning visual effects, but the plot is quite bad." This is also a common problem in Hollywood movies nowadays. But the plot of this "Iron Man" script is quite exciting, and it tells the story of a superhero. This kind of plot is the most popular among North American people. It has great potential.”

The wife smiled slightly: "Then go take pictures."

"Um."

Clement hesitated no longer.

He immediately dialed Wang Mo's number again, and his mood was completely different from the last time he called. (End of chapter)
