The reborn prince of Hong Kong Island, the goddesses are suffering from old sins

Xu Zhengyang, Xu Ke, and Zhou Minfa finished their meal and took a taxi to take a walk near the film and television city.

After going around in circles, they realized what a gap was.

Xiangjiang is known as the Hollywood of the East, but it is still too far from the real Hollywood.

The more Xu Ke and Zhou Minfa strolled, the more they felt excited.

"Alas, when will the film industry on our Hong Kong Island be as developed as the United States."

Xu Ke sighed sadly.

"Hong Kong Island is too small, if you only focus on this acre and a third of land, Chinese movies will never catch up with Hollywood."

After a pause, Xu Zhengyang continued:

"If you want to compete with Hollywood, there is only one way, that is, go north and go to the mainland to develop."

Xu Ke nodded: "Agree, the plate on Hong Kong Island is so big, it will end up if you can have a box office of 100 million, and if you want to further develop, you must go out." "

As the most successful director in the development of Beishang, Xu Ke is still very far-sighted in this regard, which coincides with Xu Zhengyang.

......

The next afternoon, Xu Zhengyang met Alex, a tall white man with blonde hair and blue eyes, in the hotel's luxurious restaurant.

"Mr. Xu, let me introduce you, this is the friend I told you, Alex, the current director of the production department of 20th Century Fox."

"Alex, this is my boss, Zhengyang Xu."

Xu Ke introduced the two to each other.

"Hello, Mr. Alex."

"Hello, Xu."

"Please sit."

Xu Zhengyang first thanked Alex for his help in the overseas distribution of "The True Color of Heroes".

Alex smiled and said that "The True Color of Heroes" is a great film, and the top management of 20th Century Fox likes it.

The box office and DVD sales generated a substantial profit for the company.

After a few pleasantries, Xu Zhengyang took out the script outline he had prepared.

"I believe Lao Xu also told you, I wrote a script myself, I want to see if your company has any intention to cooperate, this is the script outline, please take a look at it first."

Alex took the script outline and read it quickly.

"Judging from the outline, your script is very creative, but I still have to read the script before I can make a decision."

There was a hint of cunning in Alex's eyes.

"No, no, no, I won't give you the script before signing a formal contract, and even if I show you the script, I'm afraid you won't be the master."

Xu Zhengyang saw through the other party's mind at a glance.

Alex smiled sheepishly.

Xu Ke said with some dissatisfaction:

"Alex, Xu Sheng is not only my boss, but also my friend, I hope you can treat my friend with more sincerity."

Alex quickly apologized: "SORRY, I apologize for my behavior just now, Xu is right, I really can't be the master, I need to call my boss first for instructions."

Xu Zhengyang spread his hands: "Please." Alex

went to call and was back in his seat after a while.

"Congratulations, Xu, our manager is very interested in your script, and I ask you to go to the company's headquarters at ten o'clock tomorrow morning to discuss it in detail."

Xu Zhengyang also knew that this matter was not so easy, and it would not be settled without a few trips.

Fortunately, the rest of the crew arrived the day after tomorrow, and it was good to go to 20th Century Fox for a spin, so they should broaden their horizons and learn from others by the way.

......

The next day, ten o'clock in the morning.

Xu Zhengyang met Alex's boss, Lem, the general manager of 20th Century Fox productions, in a spacious and bright office.

After a brief self-introduction, both sides went straight to the point.

"Mr. Xu, I read the outline of your script, it is very creative, the imagination is very amazing, and it must be very wonderful to shoot."

"We are willing to pay 100,000 US dollars to buy the film adaptation rights of your script, I don't know what you think?"

"One hundred thousand dollars?"

Hearing this number, Xu Zhengyang stood up directly.

"Mr. Lem, is this your sincerity?"

"Presumably you have also heard about my identity, how can my family's wealth be ranked in the top five on Hong Kong Island, do you think I will be worse than this money?"

"It seems that we have no fate to cooperate, Hollywood is not only your film company, it's a big deal I'll go to a few other places to ask, I think Universal Pictures should be interested in this script."

Saying that he turned around and was about to leave, Lem quickly stopped him.

"Mr. Xu, please stay, if you are not satisfied with this price, we can discuss it slowly."

Xu Zhengyang didn't bother to talk to him anymore, and directly said his requirements.

"As I said, I'm not bad at royalties."

"This time I came with the purpose of collaboration and learning, you know, I am also the owner of a film company."

"I want to use the script to buy shares, exchange copyright fees for box office accounts, and in addition, I hope that your company can give me a co-production name."

Xu Ke and Alex were both stunned.

Lem was also taken aback, they didn't expect Xu Zhengyang's appetite to be so big.

"Mr. Xu, your request has exceeded the scope of my authority, I have to ask my superiors for instructions."

"OK, I'll wait for you."

Lem dialed the company's president.

After a while, he hung up the phone and said,

"Mr. Xu, we can agree to your request, but... We can only give you a maximum of 0.5% of the bill. In

the eyes of the CEO of 20th Century Fox, it doesn't matter if Xu Zhengyang's company is named.

Anyway, Xu Zhengyang's film company only develops in Xiangjiang, which does not pose any threat to them.

Xu Zhengyang doesn't care how much money this script can make, his main purpose is to hook up with 20th Century Fox and pave the way for future development.

As long as this "Back to the Future" is a great success, he will enter the vision of the major Hollywood film industries, and then he will have more bargaining weight.

After signing the contract, Xu Zhengyang took out the script.

After reading the entire script, Lem was even more convinced that he had made the right choice.

"MR. Xu, you are the most talented young man I have ever met, and your screenwriting level is comparable to Hollywood's gold medal screenwriter."

"Haha, thank you Mr. Lem for your compliment, this is just one of my scripts, and I have a lot of scripts like this."

Lem heard the meaning of Xu Zhengyang's words and smiled enthusiastically:

"If the box office of "Back to the Future" can meet expectations, we are willing to reach a long-term cooperative relationship with you, and hope that you will have similar good scripts in the future and can consider us excellently."

"Haha, it's good to say."

......

After walking out of the 20th Century Fox building, Xu Ke said in surprise:

"Mr. Xu, are you really only 20 years old?" How do I think you're more sophisticated than me? Xu

Zhengyang's operation just now stunned Xu Ke.

"I grew up in that environment, and these things were seen and seen."

Xu Zhengyang made an excuse for himself.

Xu Ke did not have any doubts, but just lamented that a person's origin is really important.
