You can't imagine the happiness of the group performance

Chapter 389 "The Lord of the Rings" and the guest

The two foreigners who came were from New Line Cinema.

Rick Porras, the producer and assistant director of the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy" is the leader.

The reason why they approached Jiang Yan was naturally not for Jiang Yan to star in "Lord of the Rings", but for his music.

The "Epic Trilogy" touched Rick Polas very much. He felt that the author Jiang Yan might try the soundtrack of "Lord of the Rings".

Of course, this is only an invitation, and making such a decision is not a matter of one thought.

After a deep chat, Jiang Yan realized that the reason here actually has a lot of roots.

First of all, we have to start with New Line Films. This company is not one of the eight major Hollywood companies. It is mainly an independent production and distribution company that distributes European and local low-cost horror films to American colleges and universities.

New Line's fortune has something to do with Xiangjiang. In 1990, it purchased the Xiangjiang Golden Harvest movie "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" from FOX which it did not dare to distribute, and it became a widely influential independent film distribution company after it became a big success.

With this origin, last year Long Ge's "Rush Hour" series also asked them to produce and release, and the results were quite good.

And Rick Porras is one of the producers of "Rush Hour 1", so he has a good relationship with Jiahe and Long Ge.

In addition, New Line is also related to Warner. In 1993, New Line was acquired by TV giant Warner, so New Line was merged into Time Warner Group. Although its film business has nothing to do with other film companies within Warner Group, Rick Bolas and Warner Henry also know each other, and they have a good relationship.

Jiang Yan and Long Ge have a good relationship, and Long Ge has a good relationship with Rick Bolas, Henry and Jiang Yan have a good relationship, and Jiang Yan's music is relatively important in Warner, this concert is also good Warner is involved. As a well-known producer, if Rick Porras happens to be in New York, he will naturally come and listen.

In the end, I thought it was just a formality, and I would meet with Jiang Yan and have a nodding acquaintance, and I would have a topic when I talked to Long Ge and Henry in the future. Maybe I could develop a new business line in mainland China, but "Epic Trilogy" As soon as it came out, Rick Bolas directly moved deeper thoughts.

He felt that in the trilogy, the song "victory" seemed to fit well with "Lord of the Rings".

When Jiang Yan heard this, he said of course, this is the promotional song for "The Hobbit 3", it's all from the world of Middle-earth, and the style fits naturally.

Rick Porras then invited Jiang Yan to try out the soundtrack.

Of course, this is just an invitation in advance, which is equivalent to giving an interview quota. When the movie clips come out, each interviewer will give a demo. In the end, the director Peter Jackson will finally decide who will do the soundtrack.

This is the routine process of soundtracking in Hollywood and even the world film industry.

In addition, the film "The Lord of the Rings" is a super production, so in a conventional sense, it is quite good for a musician to have this interview quota, which can be said to be a certain degree of recognition by the industry.

In this regard, in fact, when Jiang Yan played the "Trilogy" for the first time, Warner Henry asked if he wanted to develop the soundtrack.

Jiang Yan did not give a clear answer to this question before.

To be honest, Jiang Yan doesn't really want to develop in the soundtrack industry, but it also depends on the location. In China, making soundtracks is not to mention tiring, the rewards are low, and the cost performance is not high.

But in Hollywood, the soundtrack is very important. If it is in terms of gaining fame, Jiang Yan is naturally willing to be a golden person for the soundtrack.

In addition to the soundtrack, he can also win awards for screenwriting, director, starring role, and original song.

It all depends on his mood.

At that time, he didn't give an answer, and Henry didn't continue to ask, but now the opportunity came by himself.

He has no psychological burden at all to grab the wool of foreigners.

Of course, how to get "The Lord of the Rings Part One" is a long-term plan. After all, this movie was released in 01, and the age is too recent.

In addition, investment and group performances must also be discussed.

What is the trail of music, progress and skills are the road!
So Jiang Yan naturally agreed: "Mr. Bolas, it happens that we are going to have dinner, how about we chat while eating?"

"Is that okay, thank you so much, I'm just hungry too." Bolas agreed.

So Jiang Yan, Liu Qianqian's mother and daughter, Kobe, Yangyin's two teachers, and Rick Bolas went to the local high-end Chinese restaurant together.

. . . . . .

After a meal, Jiang Yan decided to go to New Zealand after getting his visa in a few days, to visit the crew in the name of looking for inspiration, and participate in group performances and filming.

It will take at least two weeks for the visa to be issued, so Jiang Yan's wish to experience Middle-earth tomorrow will not be fulfilled. Fortunately, there is no shortage of extra roles in the plot of "Lord of the Rings", so don't worry about not having any plays at that time.

As for investment, Rick Bolas is naturally not good at making decisions about this kind of thing, he just spread the word on his behalf.

Jiang Yan's attitude is also very clear. If you can invest, you should invest. First, dig out the progress. Second, the cost of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is more than 3 million, and the global box office is 30 billion. It is really delicious.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't vote for it. The shooting time of this film is indeed too long, and even if you invest, you may not get much progress.

In addition, staring at the box office is actually not as comfortable as buying Time Warner stock.

Nowadays, many people are actually not very optimistic that "Lord of the Rings" will be a big hit. There are many reasons, but Jiang Yan knows the result, and Time Warner's stock has been rising in the past few years after its release, so buying with eyes closed will definitely make money.

After the meal, Jiang Yan sent Kobe away in reality. This guy is really uncomfortable when he is away from basketball. His palm is broken and he gestures for shooting from time to time, so Jiang Yan will not keep him. Let him meet with Los Angeles and Let's play basketball together.

After sending Kobe off, Jiang Yan went directly to Liu Xiaoli's house.

I don't know if it's because Jiang Yan opened and closed tens of millions of dollars at the dinner table, or because Jiang Yan is now an artist and a national team, or because Liu Xiaoli was "confessed" before.

In short, Liu Xiaoli's attitude towards Jiang Yan is completely different from before.

A few months ago, Jiang Yan rescued Liu Qianqian, and he left immediately after giving the money. His attitude can be said to be business-like, very cold.

Later, I found out that he is a pop superstar, but when we met, he just smiled, his attitude changed a bit, but he still looked very arrogant.

Now, just invite him to her house as a guest.

Of course, this was not an individual invitation. He, Li Xiuxiu, Yang Yin's two teachers, and Jiang Yan's bodyguards were also invited together.

Jiang Yan thought she was interested in the security capabilities of the bodyguards.

After all, the alias of this New York is Gotham City. It was dark and windy at night, so we had to pay attention to safety, so we sent bodyguards to escort them home first, and then went after sending Kobe off.

In addition, Liu Xiaoli's family also has a male master now, that is, the man who had a short marriage with Liu Xiaoli.

Therefore, it is not easy for Jiang Yan to refuse with reasons such as inconvenience, well, he does not want to refuse either.

He also wanted to see Liu Qianqian's boudoir.

When Jiang Yan arrived at Liu Xiaoli's house, Liu Qianqian happily opened the door, greeted the owner, and after presenting her with a gift, Liu Qianqian took Jiang Yan to look at her photo, chirping and chatting about everything, as if she couldn't say no. finished words.

This is really a girl with too much social skills!
Or, is this the normal state of old American families?

Jiang Yan didn't quite understand, but he didn't feel disgusted, on the contrary, he was very happy to do this, after all, this is Liu Tianxian.

So Jiang Yan took a lot of photos tonight.

Two hours later, Jiang Yan and his party bid farewell and left.

Before leaving, Liu Qianqian asked Jiang Yan when he would come again.

Jiang Yan said with a smile: "I really don't know when Lao Mei will come back next time, but didn't I give you my address and phone number in China, you are welcome to come anytime you want."

"It will take a long time." Liu Qianqian said a little discouraged.

"Then why don't you go back to New Zealand?" Jiang Yan joked.

"Okay!" Liu Qianqian agreed on the spot.

"Let's go through your mother's level first."

Jiang Yan waved with a smile and formally bid farewell.
