Rebirth of India: Superior

He said he was looking for a way, but in fact Shakru had no idea at all. The only landowner he knew was Mr. Sanyi. But let’s not talk about how far Assam is from New Delhi. Even if it is close, he estimated that Mr. Sanyi Yi will not do this favor for him. This has nothing to do with the deep friendship between the two, and has nothing to do with whether San Yi has received modern education. It is purely the butt that determines the head!

Just when Shakru was worried, someone took the initiative to apply for help. This person was none other than Patela, a well-known Indian lawyer whom Shakru met when he invested in Infosys in the United States.

When Shakru learned that old Patela came to visit, he was a little surprised, because in his impression, this old man rarely returned to India in the past few years, and spent most of his time in the United States, but no matter Anyway, when someone comes to your door, you have to receive them.

So Shakru welcomed him out enthusiastically: "Mr. Patela, when did you return to India? Why didn't you call in advance so that I could visit you."

Old Patela said with a smile: "I am an old man, I have nothing to do all day long, but I am not as busy as you young people, so it is better for me to come, as long as you don't think I disturb your work."

Shakru said quickly: "What did you say? It would be my honor for you to come."

After chatting for a while, Patela Lao got to the point and said, "Little Shakru, I heard that you are going to make a movie recently?"

Shakru said with some embarrassment: "This is also a sudden idea. I was curious and thought that the subject of Puran Devi was quite interesting. In addition, I have always been interested in movies, so I came up with this idea."

Old Patela said meaningfully: "You are not just curious. I have seen many young people who make movies for fun. They usually use it to please a few beautiful girls or show off their power, but never People would choose such a sensitive and dangerous subject.”

"Um, so it seems that I chose the wrong subject?" Shakru asked tentatively.

Old Patela shook his head and said: "On the contrary, I personally like the subject you chose very much, and I think once it succeeds, your profits will be unexpectedly good."

Then the old Patera explained: "After all, you are not from Bollywood, so you can't compete with those old film companies in musicals. Moreover, the domestic film market in India is quite special. Although there are many viewers, But the fare is too low, so it’s better to explore overseas Market, I have stayed in the United States for these years, and I have really seen the reasons for the success of Hollywood. The Hollywood market is not limited to the United States, but also has sufficient influence and appeal in other countries, while Indian movies basically cannot leave India. , the only advantage is that Hollywood can’t get in.”

Regarding ticket prices, Shakru is deeply touched. Movie ticket prices in the United States are almost ten times that in India (a ticket price of 8-10 US dollars a ticket is still too expensive for Americans, and he doesn’t even look at the prices in China). How much is the income, and how much is the ticket price...), so this is also the reason why he wants to open up the US market.

"In addition, this kind of movies that reveal the true situation in the country have always been the most popular overseas. After all, people who have been to India will not believe that the singing and dancing plots in musicals are the real situation in India, but they There is no time or energy to explore the real situation, so this type of movie will definitely attract attention. Another point is that it is possible. It can be related to the innate sense of superiority of Europeans and Americans. They like to see people in other countries living in dire straits, which creates a sense of happiness through comparison.” The reason why films such as "The Lawsuit" and "Red Sorghum" won awards abroad is partly due to this.)

Shaklu clapped his hands and praised: "Your insights are so profound. I have vaguely thought of many of the truths you said before, but I have never been able to express them. After hearing what you said today, I finally understood them. I figured out what was going on.”

Old Patela glared: "You little guy, don't fool me. If you continue to speak insincerely like this, I won't help you."

"Are you here to help me today?" Shakru said in surprise.

"Of course, otherwise you think I will come to you when I have nothing to do. But I heard that your young director was looking for people in nearby villages to help with filming location, but no one agreed, so I thought Come here and help you," Old Patela said angrily.

Upon hearing this, Shakru suddenly became energetic and said quickly: "Oh, if you can help me with this matter, it will be a great help to me. Do you have any good ideas?"

This time, old Patela was not in a hurry. She leaned back on the sofa and said slowly, "I heard that the Vietnamese coffee here is very fragrant."

Knowing the elegant meaning of the song after hearing it, Shakru quickly said: "I'll let Preeti, ah, no, I'll go and make you a drink myself."

After a while, old Patera said while sipping coffee: "What good solution can I have? I can only show my old face and let you go to the village where the younger members of the family live to film."

Shakru must believe what old Patera said, because with the huge strength of the Patera family, it is normal for there to be several villages next to Delhi. As the elder of the family, old Patera said In short, even if the juniors below are unhappy, they can only cooperate honestly.

So Shakru said gratefully: "Thank you so much, old man..."

Before Shakru finished speaking, old Patera interrupted him and said: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I didn't help you for nothing this time. In return, you have to do me a favor."

"No problem, just tell me what you want. Even if there is no matter today, I will do it without hesitation." Shakru said, patting his chest.

Old Patera said with a smile: "It's not a big deal. My granddaughter Amisha is about to have summer vacation. She plans to travel around various cities, but I can't accompany her with my old arms and legs. So, I hope you can accompany Amisha to play for me. What do you think? You won't refuse such a good job, right?"
