24. Oscar queen development plan

This is the first time Xiao Yu has uttered his biggest secret so solemnly in front of others.

Really, he is very, very serious, and he is telling the truth, but in reality?

Eva Snow snorted and laughed very unladylike.

In many cases, the more serious and honest you speak, the more humorous the jokes will be.

"You don't believe it?" Xiao Yu felt depressed.

Eva Snow suppressed her laughter and nodded, "No, I believe it, really!"

Xiao Yu refrained from talking, so as not to make the description darker.

"By the way, time traveler, I'm currently having a headache for the audition invitations for several movie scripts. Can you help me?" Eva Snow asked jokingly.

Knowing that she still didn't believe it, Xiao Yu glanced at her and asked, "Aren't you filming [The Matrix]?"

"Yes, but two months later, the film was finished, and the other film [Pearl Harbor] that I had signed on would not start shooting until 2000, so I still have enough time in between."

"Then just tell me!" Xiao Yu looked like an expert.

Eva Snow really wanted to laugh, but could only hold back, and then whispered a few movie scripts she had received.

Xiao Yu was not a movie buff in his previous life, he just regarded watching movies as a way of killing time, so his taste is very commercial, for example, he likes Nicolas Cage, Spielberg, and Michael Bay. Because their movies are commercial enough.

Eva Snow told the general plots of several movies in one breath, some of which Xiao Yu did not remember, but there were also a few that Xiao Yu remembered. For example, she mentioned that Tom Hanks had agreed to Participated in, somewhat similar to "Robinson Crusoe" island survival film.

This should be the [Rest of a Deserted Island] that I have seen in my previous life! It seems to be a good film, and it is said that the box office is quite high!

There is another one about ancient Roman gladiators, and Xiao Yu knew it was the "Gladiator" that he had seen in his previous life.

In addition, there are a few movies that Xiao Yu has no impression of. They should not be very commercial films, at least Xiao Yu has not seen them.

You know, Xiao Yu has watched almost all the movies on the box office rankings. Although some of them must not be remembered, at least he will have a little impression. If he has never heard of it, it must not have a box office.

Of course, if you listen to Xiao Yu's words, you can only become a commercial film actress with box office appeal. If you want to win an Oscar queen, it should be very difficult, because almost all Oscar films, Xiao Yu does not look.

"Oh, by the way, there is a fantasy movie recently with a lot of investment. It is directed by Peter Jackson. It seems to be adapted from a very famous fantasy novel. They have contacted my agent and asked Schedules and auditions."

"Is it [The Lord of the Rings]?" Xiao Yu knew which one it was as soon as he heard it.

Eva Snow thought for a while, then nodded, "It seems to be the name, and it is said that it will shoot a trilogy in one go."

"Then why did they ask you to act?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.

"Princess Elf, but I'm still thinking about it, because their filming will take up to a year, and I'm afraid it will affect the shooting of other movies."

"Then go and try, this movie will definitely be popular!" Xiao Yu said with certainty.

"Really?" Eva Snow was a little suspicious.

In fact, she told Xiao Yu so much, mainly because Xiao Yu mentioned it to her at the beginning. She felt that "The Matrix" would be popular. At that time, she was hesitating between getting married and accepting the filming. , made up his mind to take the filming, and now he has really opened the door to Hollywood.

Although even now, Eva Snow is not considered popular, but at least she has gained a firm foothold in Hollywood.

It was precisely because of this premise that Eva Snow consulted Xiao Yu for advice.

"Of course, let me tell you, [The Matrix] and [Lord of the Rings] will become one of the most popular series of movies in the new century, listen to me right, and if the schedule is right, [Gladiator] and [The Rest of the Island] I can also take it, these two films sound very interesting and will definitely be a success.”

As Xiao Yu spoke, he secretly felt absurd in his heart, because he found that if he really did what he suggested, maybe Eva Snow could really become a popular star in Hollywood. Promoted a Hollywood superstar, or even an Oscar queen?

The more I think about Xiao Yu, the more I think it's good and interesting!

"According to the job, there should be no conflict, but it's just an audition, so people may not like me!" The matter is not as simple as Xiao Yu thought, it's not that Eva Snow wants to act, others are willing to use it, but also auditioned.

Of course, the general crew will find some people who feel suitable to audition, so there is still a chance.

"By the way, I don't know what you do yet!" Eva Snow asked with a smile.

"I work for a football club in Manchester." Xiao Yu said.

"Does the football club also travel on business?" Eva Snow was obviously not like her grandfather, at least she didn't know anything about football.

"Occasionally!"

The next topic between the two of them seemed a lot more bland, and they were all small talk.

After chatting for a while, Xiao Yu was tired and leaned on the plane to sleep, while Eva Snow was flipping through her magazine there. When she turned to the report that Xiao Yu had read just now, Obviously a little angry.

Being famous is a good thing, but the attention it brings after becoming famous is not something ordinary people can bear.

Eva Snow was educated by her mother since she was a child and accepted traditional oriental women's ideas, so she was very conservative in her bones, and she didn't even kiss actors when she was making movies, but now it was exposed by media magazines. Make her feel bad.

He wanted to find someone to talk to, but Xiao Yu next to him was sleeping like a dead pig.

Angrily glaring at the neighbor, Gan Jian also closed his eyes and got up.

The plane arrived at New York's JFK International Airport at midnight!

As soon as Xiao Yu appeared, Mark David, who had been waiting there, shouted and called him over from the crowd.

"Mark!" Xiao Yu smiled and hugged him.

"Xiao Yu, do you still recognize him? This is my elder brother!" David immediately introduced Xiao Yu.

"John, long time no see!" Xiao Yu smiled and hugged John David. They played together when they were young, but John was older and had good academic performance. Later, he went to study in the United States, and never gone back.

"Xiao Yu, it's been a few years, and you've grown up so much. I heard from Mark that you did a big thing in Manchester!" John was still the same, and he didn't have any identity with Xiao Yu at all.

The three reunited old friends left the airport while chatting, got into John's car, first went to a restaurant next to the airport for supper, filled their stomachs, and then went home.

"Xiao Yu, sit down wherever you want, Mark, help Xiao Yu move things upstairs!" As soon as he got home, John directed his younger brother to do things.

This is a villa, not luxurious, but quite spacious. There are several rooms on the upper floor, but John should be the only one living there, but now there are more Mark and Xiao Yu.

"John, I think we'll start talking about business now!" Xiao Yu walked to the sofa in front of the TV and sat down.

"Don't you want to take a break?" John went to the kitchen to pour coffee.

Xiao Yu shook his head, "No, I fell asleep on the plane just now, and now I'm in good spirits, and I should have reversed the jet lag!"

John laughed and walked over, took out the three cups of coffee on the plate, and placed them on the three corners of the table.

"Actually, Mark has already told me about your investment plan, and I have helped you notice it. From a professional point of view, your vision is very good. Apple is indeed a company worth investing in."

"What about the Google I mentioned?" Xiao Yu asked with concern.

Compared with Apple's 30 times income, Xiao Yu values ​​the profiteering Google more.

"Temporarily speaking, there is no such registered company in the United States, but it is a coincidence that I graduated from Stanford University. I will go to the company based on the two names you provided, Sergey Brin and Larry Page. Knowing that, I found out that not only were they my alumni, but they were actually looking for investment.”

"To be honest, Xiao Yu, I really doubt how you know this news. You know, the way and scope of their investment is only limited to Stanford University." John David said with a look of disbelief.

Xiao Yu smiled inscrutably and profoundly, "I also learned about it through the introduction of my friends, but I am very interested in their research, so you can help me ask them to come out and talk, just say that I am very interested in investing 5 million US dollars to help them set up a company for research and development of Internet search engines."

"5 million?" John was taken aback, this is not a small amount of money.

Xiao Yu smiled. After the World Cup ended, he redeemed the prize. Now he has 30 million pounds on hand, and 5 million US dollars is only a part of it. If he can use this money to exchange for the original shares of Google, That's definitely worth it.

"You know, my parents left me a considerable inheritance and insurance money, and I also sold the family shop!" Xiao Yu explained with a smile.

John froze for a moment, and finally had to shake his head with emotion, "You are such a fanatical lunatic!"

Xiao Yu laughed after hearing this, this is not the first time someone has commented on him like this.

"Okay, I will help you with this matter." John finally agreed to Xiao Yu.

"In addition, give me an additional 20 million US dollars in Apple stock. Steve Jobs is also a lunatic. I think he will definitely bring about huge changes to Apple when he becomes crazy!"

John didn't have any opinion on this either. On the contrary, after his younger brother mentioned this matter to him, he took a look at Apple's performance and found that Xiao Yu's vision was really professional, even sharper than professionals like him. , so he had to admire Xiao Yu, and naturally he would not object!

"Any more?" John asked.

Xiao Yu thought for a while, nodded and said, "I'm going to buy a big one for the rest of the money!"..........PS : Can I book a recommended ticket for next week? Lao Chen trades for updates!
