Chapter 894: What's Your Business? (To make up for yesterday's update, not counted as an extra update!)

"I don't think it was a wrong decision for us to invite Liu to star in Prometheus. Co-production will become a trend of communication between Chinese and Hollywood films. The help she provided to the crew was also enormous."

It is impossible for such a high-profile crew to not attract the attention of local media when they come to Iceland to scout locations.

In particular, among its investors is Hermès Film Investment Company, which has become a household name in Hollywood and even in Europe with its many excellent works in the past two years.

In an interview with local Icelandic media, Ridley Scott preached into the microphone.

He was so arrogant, as if to say that what I want to shoot is my business and it is none of your business, Icelanders, to tell me what to do.

Who gave him the courage?

Of course it was given to me by Liu Qianqian when I woke up in the morning.

Xiangyang had an in-depth conversation with Macron last night. When he heard his wife calling, he immediately called her back.

In terms of time zone, Liu Qianqian has the advantage.

It was already early morning in Xiangyang, and Liu Qianqian had just finished her daily skin care work and was ready to rest.

"Let me drink some water first and brush my teeth." Xiangyang said with a yawn.

After working so non-stop, he had very little energy left.

And I can’t sleep in, because tomorrow I have to attend some events held in France as a representative of a French luxury group.

Everywhere there are celebrities, entrepreneurs and sheepdogs.

Damascus is no exception.

He would not have bothered to mention the history of France and the Damascus region if it were not for the purpose of proving his own point of view when communicating with Macron.

"Go quickly and lie down and we'll talk later." Liu Qianqian not only expressed her concern but also urged him.

You don't have to call me today.

But since she called, she also wanted to talk to Xiangyang.

"Meow~"

Just a few seconds after he finished speaking, a familiar voice came from the phone.

"Let me get Dongdong a can of food first. He might be hungry." Xiangyang said with a smile.

Tonight, he has no shortage of warm bed.

"You actually take it with you when traveling." Liu Qianqian was speechless at Xiangyang's action.

"If I wasn't afraid of making too much of a fuss, I would have brought Lai Fu and the others as well." Xiangyang said as he took out the bowl that Dongdong usually eats from the suitcase and opened a can of food.

Liu Qianqian snorted.

I thought she believed it.

Xiangyang smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.

Soon, after seeing Dongdong eating with relish, he checked that the cat litter and drinking water for the cat that the service staff had helped to prepare were all available, and then he went to the bathroom with peace of mind.

Because I'm too tired.

Plus, my wife is waiting.

Xiangyang had no intention of taking a shower, but instead quickly brushed his teeth.

Similarly, he washed very quickly.

This is the advantage of his wife not being around him, there aren’t so many things to worry about.

But the clothes that need to be changed still need to be changed.

So he wasted some time. After chatting with Liu Xixi for a few words, he came out of the bathroom. It was almost 3 o'clock in the morning here.

During this process, Liu Qianqian also repeated the reason why she called.

"Yeah, I heard from Bi Shafer." Xiangyang came to the bed and called Dongdong, who was already full and drunk, to sleep with him while setting an alarm on the bedside clock.

"Tomorrow morning, she will send the feedback that needs to be confirmed by TJ to your email, but as for Tesla, I will help you confirm it during the day tomorrow." After a pause, Xiangyang got on the bed and changed his posture to better hold Dongdong in his arms and continued:

"Don't worry, I've seen their design before, there won't be any problems, just let him rest assured."

"He just wanted to confirm it."

As Liu Qianqian spoke, she shared with Xiangyang a brief account of what she later talked about with Ridley Scott.

According to Ridley Scott, the idea is to hold auditions before the Oscars.

This will ensure that the schedule can be better adjusted. Secondly, if the actor you like really wins an Oscar, the price will be different.

The agents of Hollywood actors are not easy to talk to.

Generally speaking, the increase in Oscar winners' pay varies between male and female actors, and also varies in terms of their fame.

The pay increase for actresses is approximately $50.

As for the Best Actor award, the starting salary is at least 400 million US dollars.

It is also important to note that even if an actor's film is nominated and wins an award, his or her pay will change significantly.

After all, the annual Golden Man is not only widely watched by the industry, but also attracts the attention of a large number of movie lovers.

In particular, the overall revenue increase of the next work of the Best Picture winner after winning the award is astonishingly high.

This is also why Hollywood actors are vying for awards.

After all, not everyone is Leo.

Even without an Oscar, he can still get top Hollywood film contracts.

"Is he so confident that the actor will agree to sign the contract at this time?" Xiang Yang asked with a smile, making a comfortable sound.

"Hehe~ Director Ridley didn't plan to cast any best actor or actress in this movie."

Liu Qianqian couldn't help but get into bed. She had just been thinking about letting Xiangyang go to bed early, but now she couldn't help but start talking on the phone.

"Who is the male actor partnering with you?" Xiang Yang didn't care who was in the role.

That's all he cares about.

Even if there is no rivalry, can't I just ask?
If it is a good friend like Juanfu or Tom Hiddleston, it would be more fun if he goes to visit the set.

"Have you seen~"

Noticing a hint of jealousy in Xiangyang's tired tone, Liu Qianqian couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.

Ridley Scott really has some favorite actors.

Ok.

Although the male lead in "Prometheus" is destined to be an alien.

It's still a group drama.

However, the different division of labor in the roles and the early or late exit from the screen are bound to lead to people spontaneously judging who is the male lead, male second, female lead, or female second based on the amount of shots of the actors.

"Have I seen it?" Xiangyang was stunned.

This topic is a bit broad.

There are not many Hollywood actors who are his friends, only a few, but he has met quite a few of them.

For a moment, Xiangyang was really confused.

It can’t be Colin Firth again!

If this old man were to have an affair with his wife, he would have to visit the set more often.

I'm not afraid of young handsome guys, but I'm most afraid of older men who have charming attributes.

During Liu Qianqian's participation in "Legal Copy", Xiangyang, who had often heard her praise the British opera singer for how charming she was, became wary.

"Gosling, do you remember? We watched his movies together at home."

"."

Hearing this name, Xiangyang let out a long sigh.

Commander Gosling. Don't worry, this guy has acted with Emma Stone so many times in the future, but there is no spark.

Ok.

Maybe it's a .
Thinking of his later role in the movie version of "Barbie" in a pink outfit, Xiangyang grinned mischievously.

"And Ryan Reynolds, whom director Ridley also admires," Liu Qianqian added.

"Let him act?"

Xiangyang blinked in surprise.

Ryan Reynolds, you little bastard.

However, compared to the fact that he later became famous all over the world in 2016 for this role, the actor had a hard time.

It’s not because DC invested $2 million to create "Green Lantern" and lost a lot of money.

The film will not be released until June 2011.

Now the CEO of DC is probably still dreaming that this movie will be as popular with movie fans around the world as "Avatar" and "Iron Man", and will be incubated into a superhero IP.

Of course, this box office failure not only made DC wait 10 years before daring to touch this IP again.

As a result, this Hollywood actor, who showed his prowess with the two movies "Wolverine" and "Buried", suffered a major setback.

But this guy just got divorced not long ago.

As for who his wife is, it will definitely surprise many people if you tell them.

Scarlett Johansson!
"Why, do you think he is unsuitable?"

"Not really, but I'm afraid he's not in the mood to accept the invitation at this time."

"Uh"

When talking about this sensitive matter, Liu Qianqian also felt embarrassed.

She didn't eat much of this melon.

Moreover, she didn't want to expand on this topic, so she simply changed the subject and said, "Don't you care who the actresses are?"

"Isn't there Musk's wife?"

Xiang Yang said.

Why, is there going to be a lot of actors in Prometheus?
"Of course it's not just me and her. I can tell from the look of it that you haven't read the script carefully. You know, this drama of ours is also laying the groundwork for the second part. By the way, there's a high probability that Omar Sy will play one of the roles."

"Who is Omar Shee?"

"." Xiangyang's question really served as a topic terminator.

Omar Sy is the black actor in The Intouchables!

Liu Qianqian was surprised to find that after Hermès Film Investment Company won awards at Cannes, Venice and the Golden Globe Awards for this film and achieved huge success in the box office market, Xiang Yang, who was actually in charge of the company, could not even remember the name of the leading actor.

this.
What a good boss!
"Thank you for the compliment." Xiang Yang did not feel ashamed at all, but said with a smile.

It's not like he forgot about the actor.

But he didn't react at once, because the topic he just discussed with Macron also included a lot of topics about the future of the black community in France.

To be honest, it’s easier to chat with my wife.

Talking to people like Macron is like doing business. You have to be on your guard at all times and remind yourself to pay attention to the complexity and multi-layered nature of people and things.

In other words, don't treat others as fools.

But when I chat with my wife, there are not so many things.

You see, she is always so direct when she gets angry, which makes Xiangyang, who is lying on the bed and listening to the gurgling sound in his ears, feel extremely relaxed and comfortable.

then
"Hey, why aren't you talking?"

"."

"Hey, are you listening?"

"."

"Xiangyang!"

Liu Qianqian couldn't help pouting in grievance when she realized that Xiangyang had fallen asleep while chatting with her.

When someone is chatting on the phone with a beauty, instead of dancing with excitement, he falls asleep.

If you say this, will anyone believe it?
If you sleep, I sleep too!

Although she was annoyed, Liu Qianqian knew that Xiangyang must be exhausted after the day, otherwise he would have said "good night".

then
Putting the phone to her lips, Liu Qianqian opened her lips slightly and said softly to Xiangyang: "Good night~"

A few seconds later, she imitated Xiang Yang's usual speaking tone and said "good night~" again.

The second sentence was spoken to myself on behalf of Xiangyang.

Then she blinked.

After turning over and turning off the light, he placed his phone quietly beside his pillow. The dark room instantly became even quieter.

On the other end of the phone, I don't know when, but I could hear Xiangyang's rhythmic breathing.

Close your eyes and listen carefully.

After a while, after a small yawn, Liu Qianqian also felt sleepy.

After that, her head shrank into the quilt.

But he stretched out his hand again, found the phone beside the pillow, and tapped the screen lightly twice with his fingertips.

It was like knocking on Xiangyang's forehead.

the next day.

When she woke up, there were several new emails in her mailbox, as well as some feedback from TJ and Tesla.

Xiangyang woke up early in the morning and told Bi Shafer about the matter.

After a chat, I learned that although these designs were outsourced to Tesla, all the communication between the two parties and the crew was handled by TJ.

This is also the specific arrangement for costumes and props in other film projects.

"I didn't realize that little John is quite good at grabbing power." Xiangyang, who had been drinking coffee all morning, sighed.

Bea Shaffer nodded.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that, although this can reduce the time cost of communication, this arrangement is also asserting one's own leadership.

Only Little John could do such a thing.

If it were Xiangyang in front of her, he would be eager to hand over everything to others.

It's just like.
Yawning, Bi Shaffer, who had worked overtime again yesterday, couldn't help but ask the waiter for a cup of coffee.

"Boss, in addition to the activities with the PR department today, there are two exclusive interviews, one with Alsham Information and the other with Al Jazeera. Here are the specific interview contents and the interview transcript I wrote. Please take a look first."

"okay, I get it."

Xiangyang looked at the densely packed text and agreed boredly.

It's really troublesome to be on TV all day long.

I might as well have been a tailor.

Just after expressing his feelings, Macron, dressed in a suit and looking energetic, appeared at the door of the restaurant as if he had received a President Dai experience card.

Before he had time to talk to the waiter, he took two quick steps and asked curiously:
"Xiang, how can I call you? Your phone is turned off?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiangyang clearly noticed a smile in the corners of Bi Shafer's tired eyes opposite him.

After swallowing, Xiangyang looked up and gave Macron a cold look.

What do you care whether my phone is turned off or not?
Did you spend your phone bill?
