Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Chapter 983

"Chairman Alan should know that I recently have a movie called "Godzilla" that will be released in Hollywood."

Little Alan Ryder nodded. This matter had sparked a heated discussion in Hollywood after Lin Daoqiu participated in "Late Night".

As a filmmaker, Alan Ryder naturally knew this news.

"Universal invested 6,000 yuan in the screen this time, but I think it is not enough for "Godzilla", so I came here today to ask Chairman Alan to borrow the screen."

Little Alan Ryder didn't expect that Lin Daoqiu came to him to ask for the screen. Is this guy crazy?

It’s not like Fox has no movies of its own to be released during the Christmas period, so how could it give him the screen? This is even more ridiculous than the 200 million price Lin Daoqiu offered for "Mission: Impossible".

"I didn't expect that after a few years, Mr. Lin is still as arrogant as before. Fox also has its own movie to be released during the Christmas period. There is no extra screen to lend to you, and even if there is none, I will not lend it to you.

I believe what I said is clear enough."

Little Alan Ryder refused Lin Daoqiu's request without even thinking about it.

He is already arrogant enough, how could he bear to have someone even more arrogant than him appear in front of him.

"Chairman Alan, do you think my coming today is unreasonable?"

Lin Daoqiu asked with a smile.

Little Alan Ryder did not speak, but at this time he was looking at Lin Daoqiu with a contemptuous smile, which obviously represented his answer.

"'Godzilla' is a cross-generational movie. It took me almost three years to make it. If this movie was not good enough, Longmeyer would not have screened all the screens in one go.

Take it out and put it on top of Godzilla."

It sounds like Lin Daoqiu is trying to reason with little Alan Ryder, and what Lin Daoqiu said does sound quite reasonable.

But it makes sense, and if you want little Alan Ryder to cooperate with him based on this, it is almost impossible to even think about it.

"It's not enough. Just saying this is far from enough to convince me. Are you thinking of any better words?"

Little Alan Ryder never thought about agreeing to Lin Daoqiu from the beginning. Even when he heard that Lin Daoqiu wanted to borrow a screen from him, he wanted to drive this annoying guy out of his office.

But now little Alan Ryder has changed his mind. He plans to play tricks on Lin Daoqiu. Anyway, there is nothing important at hand now, so he will just treat it as a pastime.

"I know Chairman Alan must be thinking right now that I must be out of my mind when I come to you to ask for a screen, but if you are willing to give me an hour, I believe Chairman Alan will definitely change your mind."

Little Alan Ryder didn't know what Lin Daoqiu was going to do, but he looked confident.

It was only about an hour, but he wanted to see if Lin Daoqiu could find any way to change his mind and lend him all the Fox screens.

…………

After leaving the Fox headquarters and getting in the car, Lin Daoqiu took little Alan Ryder to the post-production company of Universal Pictures.

"Did you bring me here to watch a movie?"

After little Alan Ryder entered the screening room of the post-production company, he guessed Lin Daoqiu's intention of inviting him here.

"Chairman Alan partly contributed to my success, so I would like to invite you to watch a movie today."

"You want to invite me to watch Godzilla?"

Little Alan Ryder knew as soon as he heard that Lin Daoqiu brought him here to let him watch the legendary "Godzilla".

Lin Daoqiu did not deny it, and nodded directly to admit it.

In fact, little Alan Ryder is also very curious about this movie, but because Lin Daoqiu and Fox have not cooperated, it is impossible for him to ask the other party to watch the film.

Since he had this opportunity today, little Alan Ryder naturally would not refuse it. He walked directly to the chair in the middle and sat down.

"Okay, I would like to see if this movie that cost 150 million can compare to "Star Wars"..."

Lin Daoqiu walked over to little Alan Ryder and sat down.

At this time, the surrounding lights slowly dimmed, and the screen began to light up.

At the beginning, little Alan Ryder looked indifferent.

"It's pretty okay. The special effects are passable, but compared with Star Wars, they're still far behind."

However, as the plot progresses, the previously indifferent expression on little Alan Ryder's face has become more and more focused.

At first, little Alan Ryder wanted to damage Lin Daoqiu while watching it, and make this "Godzilla" worthless.

However, not long after the movie started, little Alan Ryder entered a state of concentration.

He had watched "Star Wars" many times before. In Alan Ryder's opinion, there was no special effects movie in the world that could compare to "Star Wars".

However, as time went by, little Alan Ryder's firm idea began to waver.

When "Godzilla" emerged from the sea, little Alan Ryder was completely shocked.

Until the end of the movie, little Alan Ryder didn't say another word.

After getting in the car, little Alan Ryder said nothing, while Lin Daoqiu stood on the roadside and watched the other party leave.

"How about it? Did he agree?"

Langmeyer was actually always there, he just didn't show up.

Lin Daoqiu looked at the car going away, and then shook his head.

Little Alan Ryder did not give an answer and left without saying anything. Lin Daoqiu actually did not know what his attitude was.

Refuse or agree, or need to consider, before little Alan Ryder gave an answer, Lin Daoqiu had no way of knowing what he was thinking.

…………

After returning to the company, Alan Ryder Jr. made a direct call and called Landry, the head of Fox's distribution department, to his office.

When Landry opened the door and walked into Alan Ryder Jr.'s office, he found that something seemed wrong with his boss today.

After Landry sat down, Alan Ryder Jr. briefly explained to him what had happened before.

"Lin Daoqiu came to me just now and said he wanted us to lend him the screen..."

"Mr. Lin is really good at joking. We also have our own movie to be released at Christmas, so how can we have an extra screen to lend him."

Landry didn't think Alan Ryder Jr. would agree to Lin Daoqiu's request.

But after he finished speaking, the serious expression on little Alan Ryder's face made Landry feel that this matter was not as simple as he imagined.

If little Alan Ryder didn't want to borrow it, he would never act so serious at this time. What happened?
