Chapter 245 A Mother and Daughter Meet Lu Heng for the First Time (Two in One)

Of course Jiang Zhiqiang didn't know about Mira's showmanship on "Heroes" in his previous life, but now that he has negotiated with their head office, of course he would not choose them again. After all, the channels of the two companies are not of the same order.

What's more, there is Jerry in the middle!
Ordinary filmmakers, even many in Hollywood, don't necessarily know how many films Jerry has produced, but Jiang Zhiqiang knows, and even knows a lot, because what he engages in is distribution--movies from Hollywood, Europe, Asia and other countries are all through He distributed it to Xiangjiang, and Xiangjiang also has a small number of films, which he distributed abroad.

Such a big name, with such an opportunity, had to have a good communication and build a good relationship by the way.

So, facing Harry's chattering show off, and even a little threatening tone, Jiang Zhiqiang calmly said:

"Sorry Harry, we already have a new option."

There was a short silence on the phone, as if Harry was also surprised by Jiang Zhiqiang's speed. After the silence, Harry's voice sounded a bit annoyed:

"What, how can you do this, you let me down so much, do you know what you are doing? Qiang, you are so reckless!"

Jiang Zhiqiang frowned, and his reaction to him was a bit inexplicable. Of course, Lu Heng knew the reason, but he couldn't expose it. After all, it was the future, and nothing happened yet.

Even if Jiang Zhiqiang didn't know the reason, Harry's words and tone made people uncomfortable and a little annoyed:
"Harry, do you know what you're doing? I'm just negotiating business with you. There have been cases where cooperation was not reached before, but your tone today and your words don't respect me!"

Harry hesitated for a moment, and realized that he had overreacted, so he calmed down a bit, and then said:
"Qiang, it is because we are old friends that I hope you and we can be successful. You have been in distribution for so many years and know Hollywood very well, so you should also be clear that I give you that kind of treatment, yes Companies at the same level and above can't give you conditions, but companies that can give you higher conditions are not as good as our channels!"

"I understand, but now... I have a better choice, such as Disney." Jiang Zhiqiang didn't make a fuss anymore, and said it in advance, so as not to get excited again, although he didn't know what this guy was excited about.

Jiang Zhiqiang spoke very calmly, but he still felt a little elated in his heart. When he was speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Lu Heng next to him, because it was brought by Lu Heng.

Although he knew Tom earlier than Lu Heng, he never thought that Tom could bring Jerry.

Of course, even if Jiang Zhiqiang knew that Tom knew Jerry and could invite him over, he would not do so, because Jerry is too famous, and his movies have never lacked investment, not to mention that Disney is leading this time .

Going to Disney and Jerry for a piece of the action?

Jiang Zhiqiang didn't know how to think about it, nor did he dare to think about it.

But this time...it was a success, and Jerry looked very satisfied.

Jiang Zhiqiang couldn't figure it out, but it didn't stop him from being proud, it's really awesome!
I found the boss, not to mention killing two birds with one stone, and I can still get Disney. As for this movie, they are willing to share a part of it. Obviously they are not so optimistic about the movie, or it may be risky, but this is no longer Jiang Zhiqiang. He couldn't persuade Heng to "go his own way".

But even if it loses in the end, this title is enough-I used to co-produce movies with Disney and Bruckheimer, and it was still an A-level production with an investment of hundreds of millions of magnesium dollars!
Just like many people, with this springboard, they can enter that circle by taking advantage of the trend.

But the risk for them is Lu Heng's benefit as a reborn person, mastering the prophet's information, and being 20 years ahead of the times, whoever uses it will know.

On the other end of the phone, when Jiang Zhiqiang said the name "Disney", Harry was silent for a while, but after a while his voice was a little raised:
"You mean Disney? Are you sure you're not kidding me? Qiang, today is not April [-]st."

"Of course." Jiang Zhiqiang replied affirmatively: "Today is August [-]st."

Harry's tone was full of disbelief: "God, how is it possible... How did you get in touch with Disney? You are getting better and better now, strong."

"It's true." Jiang Zhiqiang said, "It was Lu Heng. He found Jerry and reached a cooperation with Disney. As for me, I was always a spectator."

Harry: "..."

He didn't know what to say anymore, besides, Jiang Zhiqiang said that it was Lu Heng's talk, and he didn't know anything about Lu Heng, which made him very annoyed.

After hanging up the phone, he immediately went to ask, but he got an affirmative answer, and his mood became even more depressed, but there was nothing he could do.

Although Mira Company was acquired by Disney in 93, the acquisition does not mean 100% of the equity. Harry still retains the shares, as well as the equity of his position as the president, etc. Normally, Disney will not take care of them, let alone Will not participate in the operation - in other words, as long as it can make money for the head office at the end of the year.

And Harry wanted to win "Red Cliff" to avoid affecting the two movies he invested in. Disney didn't know about it at all. Besides, it was just a talk, and Lu Heng left without speculation. And Harry didn't expect Lu Heng to be so Quick, caught off guard.

Then, he just watched "Red Cliff" cooperate with the head office.

It's quite like a tsundere girl waiting for a weak boyfriend to coax her, but in the blink of an eye... her boyfriend started talking to her mother, and the key point is that her mother agreed!
What the hell am I!This kind of turning point opened Harry's eyes and almost broke his waist. It's so beautiful!
But it’s a done deal. If you use that boyfriend and mother as an example, their marriage certificates have already been slapped, and it’s useless to get angry. You can’t let them divorce (break up) the marriage (engagement), right?Then don't you get half of the property (compensation) property (compensation)?Can mother agree?

After signing the contract, the president of Disney Distribution hosted a banquet for Lu Heng, Jerry and Jiang Zhiqiang, with Tom as his companion.

The buyout price Harry gave before, or the share ratio, was nothing more than a low price. The box office in East Asia has already proved its potential, and they have also seen the finished film of "Red Cliff"!
This time, it was in Disney's internal screening hall, with top-notch equipment, and when Lu Heng and the others came to talk about distribution, they naturally brought a copy of the movie instead of the disc that Jiang Zhiqiang had previously played.

The playback effect is top-notch, and the combination of story and music, as well as post-production special effects, is top-notch even in Hollywood. After all, Lu Heng's set is a combination of so many Hollywood blockbusters now and in the future.

Defeating them with their magic, Lu Heng felt a great sense of accomplishment. It seemed that at this moment he transformed into Murong Fu, and returned the same way to him, and only Wang Yuyan was missing by his side.

Therefore, with the box office results and the quality of the film, the Disney distribution company certainly has their judgment—it has a hot spot and has potential, so the president of the distribution company came forward to entertain the film in person.

Of course, there is also Jerry's face.

"I like this story very much. Although it's only subtitles, your Chinese original soundtrack version can express emotions better. I actually prefer to watch the original soundtrack version rather than the transliterated version. It always gives people a strange feeling." The boss of the publishing company said .

Lu Heng thought, not only you, but I also don't like the transliterated version, so those foreign blockbusters in later generations will always have a higher box office with the original sound version, and the subtitles are just a matter of scanning, which is not a problem.

"Me too." Jerry said the same thing suddenly, which made Lu Heng smile, and at this moment he looked at Lu Heng, with a pair of slightly dim gray-blue eyes, with a certain sincerity:

"Especially when you give the order to attack, the aura of returning to the king exudes, as well as the contemptuous eyes that looked at those ministers who wished to surrender, are all fascinating."

While eating and chatting, they were still talking about the story of "Red Cliff", Jerry said:

"In the beginning, everyone opposed it. Only you and that Liang insisted. After all, you have too few fighters, and the opponent has ten times as many fighters as you. But you refused to admit defeat and defeated them with bravery and wisdom."

"I heard that in the history of your Three Kingdoms period, your ancient "Sun Tzu's Art of War" was used in many wars. This is simply too cool. The wisdom of more than 2000 years ago is too powerful."

Lu Heng smiled and said nothing. In terms of history, China is really not afraid of any country. The key is to continue, while other ancient civilizations have been interrupted a long time ago, and many of them have even dissipated in the mist of history.

After eating, Jerry wiped his mouth and looked at Lu Heng. The stubble on his face was accompanied by the muscles of his face:

"So, I want to thank you for allowing me to watch such an enjoyable movie, just like watching "The Count of Monte Cristo", it is very exciting."

Lu Heng smiled modestly, but felt in his heart... this old man probably hasn't read Kangxi Weifu Private Interview, otherwise he would like it.

Pretending to be slapped in the face, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, the serious written language is called suppressing first and then raising.

Looking at the films made by this old man, including the later ones, like "Red Cliff" and "The Count of Monte Cristo", they are full of personal heroism, and there are also those cool routines of pretending to be pigs and eating tigers.

Of course, those blockbuster films of Lao Mei are basically in this tone.

The history is limited, and the heroes that can be obtained, such as the three founding heroes of Washington, or Lincoln, and the old Arthur who became famous in World War II, are brilliant, but they are only called heroes by some people.

If it is actually made into a film and television work, it is hard to say how it will perform at the box office, but it will definitely arouse controversy and even strong protests, because there are many contradictions that have not been reconciled until now.

Because of this, there are no real-life heroes of universal significance here, and they can only create superheroes that are ethereal and beyond reality.

Just like when Chinese people were young, they would imagine themselves as Monkey King.

But when the children grow up, they all know that it is fake, it is a fantasy and fiction, but in reality, there are too many living and admirable ancestors and heroes who give us strength.

But many ordinary old ladies can only accept this kind of illusory dream. After all... it is no different from praying to God for something, and it is all nine days away.

It was settled here, and the movie was released soon after.

On the side of Mira's Harry, they secretly hope that they will fail at the box office. Since it will affect us, it is better to smash it. It is best to come to Waterloo so that you can still be embarrassed. The movie will have one less competitor.

As for Sony Columbia, they were noncommittal when they heard that they finally signed with Disney, but they were a little surprised when they heard that they were given a share that was several times higher than their own:

"Is Disney going to be a charity? Or to the Chinese people?"

But no matter what the outside world thinks, the premiere of "Red Cliff" in Magnesia was held in a grand manner. Lu Heng attended with actors who just came from China.

After the movie screening, when the lights came on, many people still had some unfinished aftertaste.

Both Disney and Jerry were paying attention to their demeanor, seeing this scene, they felt relieved.

Harry and the people from Columbia Pictures were also invited. Seeing this scene, I felt a little upset, but I didn't recruit any more, because they were the first to look for them.

Then Lu Heng brought a group of actors to the stage.

Although they are wearing their own clothes and are no longer the costumes in the movie, the audience can still tell who is who. After all, everyone has their own characteristics, and their heights are also different.

Not to mention, Zhang Ziyi is already well-known to them. Zhang Fengyi is not too unfamiliar in the Magnesium country with his previous performances in "Farewell My Concubine" and "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin". And a lot of media, movie reviews, and senior movie fans, etc.

But other people's English is not good, only Lu Heng introduced them one by one, helped them translate, and then talked freely on stage.

Lu Heng's calm demeanor and chic and casual temperament fascinated not only the female audience and female industry practitioners, but also many men.

"It's really like Zhou Yu's general in the movie." Someone sighed.

But Jerry squinted his eyes in the audience, suddenly remembered his movie, and murmured:

"Captain Jack... Well, a person who dares to confront the pirate leader Barbossa who owns a fleet, and every time he stands between them, his casual and fearless temperament... How does it feel that Lu Heng is quite suitable?"

Of course, it wasn't Jerry's unprecedented idea, but Lu Heng told Jiang Zhiqiang before, asking him to talk to Jerry at an appropriate time.

Lu Heng can't say it directly, so as not to be too deliberate. To do these things, you still have to do it step by step. When Jerry talked about "Pirate", Jiang Zhiqiang mentioned it by the way: It is also equivalent to the captain of "Red Cliff". The two are a bit alike.

It's just such a word of mouth, not deliberately or abruptly, after all, the two movies do have many similarities.

A small seed was planted at that time, and at this time, it finally broke ground and germinated at the premiere, and took root in Jerry's mind immediately.

The reason why he had this idea was because, just like in his previous life, Jim Carrey wanted to make another "Fake God", but declined, and Jerry had to find a new starring role.

What Lu Heng on the stage didn't know was that in a corner of the stage, a Chinese mother and daughter were sitting there, looking at Lu Heng on the stage with concentrated expressions, especially the daughter, who looked at Lu Heng obsessively: "Mom, he is so handsome and has a good temperament."

"Sissy, you can't look at people by their appearance. He is indeed handsome, but if you understand his achievements, you will find..." Her mother paused, with an incredulous tone, and sighed: "It's even more powerful."

　thanks for your support.
