Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

After multiple rounds of negotiations, the purchase price of United Artists was negotiated at US$1.3 million.

However, United Artists' debt is as high as $1.8 million, which must be assumed if it wants to acquire United Artists.

This means that once the acquisition is successful, Yang Ye and others will owe a lot of debt.

Therefore, the urgent question for everyone is not the acquisition, but how to repay the debt after the acquisition!

How can I pay it back? As a film company, it's just about making movies.

Yang Ye and White each have their own affairs. After United Artists takes over, Shea will be the president.

And his original New Line Company has now become a subsidiary of United Artists, and he is looking for managers to manage it.

Before waiting for the acquisition review, several people held a small meeting.

Xie Yi said: "Now the acquisition case has entered the final review stage. If nothing unexpected happens, United Artists will be ours in two months.

I think we should have a clear plan for this new company.

Since we are not as wealthy as big companies like Warner, we cannot invest in movies randomly. Instead, we should develop a specialized route based on our advantages. What do you think? "

Yang Ye and others nodded.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Xie continued: "Judging from the changes in Hollywood in the past few years, traditional themes of song and dance, biography, history, and gangsters will gradually decline. Next, horror, science fiction, magic, and action themes will usher in own new era.

Among these four major themes, science fiction and fantasy both require strong financial support, which we cannot afford for the time being. The investment in horror and action is relatively small, so it is more suitable to be our main focus. "

Yang Ye and others nodded again to express their agreement!

"Horror films are our traditional strength. In this regard, our original New Line Company has already created a signature effect. Therefore, horror films are still produced by New Line Company, and United Artists is responsible for distribution! And United Artists headquarters, He specializes in producing action movies."

"When it comes to action movies, we have two major advantages. First, of course, we have an action superstar like Nick. Nick, I hope you can come to the United States to make movies!"

Yang Ye shook his head and said: "I am a Chinese. It is difficult to find suitable subjects in Hollywood. Let's talk about it later! But I can consider being a director."

Yang Ye is an Academy Award-winning director, and it would be good for him to be a director. Xie was very satisfied with this answer and continued: "In addition to the film company, we also have a UFC company, which has developed well in the past few years and produced some good products. Fighting masters. I think next, we can let them make movies. Appearing in the movie will help enhance their reputation and also help improve the professionalism of our movies. These are mutually reinforcing things!"

"Clap clap clap!"

White applauded: "This is very good!"

It is a common operation for athletes to switch careers into movies, and the success rate is not low. This is indeed a good idea!

After Xie Yi finished speaking, Yang Ye was about to start using IP.

He took out a book and said, "I was reading a novel recently, "First Blood" by David Morel. I wonder if you have read it?"

Shay and White both shook their heads.

Yang Ye said: "This novel is very exciting. I suggest you read it. I think it can be adapted into a good action movie."

Xie Yi raised his eyebrows. Yang Ye is a master of action movies. If he said it would work, it would definitely work.

"Can you be the director?"

Yang Ye shook his head: "It's not that I don't want to do it, but I'm not familiar with things related to the history of the Vietnam War, so it's difficult to operate."

He paused and then said: "I can... provide action guidance!"

This is already very good. Shea said: "OK, I will contact David Morrell and ask him to buy the copyright."

"Are you sure you don't want to take a look?"

"My brother, you can't go wrong with what you're looking for!"

"Okay, thank you for trusting me!"

With the two major series "First Blood" and "Rocky", Stallone is basically bound to United Artists.

Then bring in Schwarzenegger and Tom, and add the 007 series.

United Artists' action dynasty can be announced.

The characteristic of action movies is that they can always be successful. As long as one is successful, at least five more can be made in the future.

……

The review would not be available for a while, so Yang Ye could only wait.

He began to harass Qiong Yao by calling her every day, asking about Lin Qingxia's whereabouts.

Her mother may not know where Lin Qingxia is, but Qiong Yao must know.

But Qiong Yao remained tight-lipped and refused to tell Yang Ye.

Yang Ye had no choice. He couldn't leave the United States for the time being, so he simply summoned Yuan Biao from Hong Kong. He planned to complete the album of "China Dragon Team" with Chen Long and put it into the Japanese market to test the waters.

Company H also sent a producer over to supervise the production of the "Chinese Dragon Team" album.

After Yuan Biao arrived in Los Angeles, Yang Ye went to Chen Long's house for dinner with him.

A blond beauty came over with a plate of red things and said with a smile: "Try the gourd meat!"

Yang Ye took a piece of it doubtfully and tasted it. It was sour and sweet, and it was edible.

"Well, not bad! Susie, I didn't expect your Chinese food to be so good!"

The blonde beauty named Susie smiled proudly and said, "Jack taught me all this!"

"Sit down and eat together!"

“And a salad!”

Susie said, twisting her big butt and walking away.

Seeing her entering the kitchen, Yang Ye gave Chen Long a thumbs up: "Along, your training is good!"

Chen Long smiled proudly: "I just want to learn English!"

Chen Long didn't know a few words before, but now he speaks English well. He's such a damn talent!

Yang Ye asked with great interest: "How did you learn it?"

"I first learned English in Australia. I didn't even know 26 letters at that time. Later, I listened to English folk songs all the time. I didn't listen to rock music, I just listened to folk songs, because the melody of folk songs is slow and the lyrics can be heard clearly. I also watched a lot For movies and video tapes, find a piece of paper and cover the dialogue on the disaster screen so that the subtitles cannot be seen. Listen to the dialogue all day long.”

"After I came to the United States last year, I hired a Chinese female teacher to teach me English for three hours a day. But during the three-hour class, I dozed off for two hours. Even when I fell asleep, the female teacher did not Excuse me while I sit and knit. I pay her a thousand dollars a day for tuition. Four months later, I'm going to be on TV and I don't know a word of English. In a fit of rage, I fired the knitting teacher."

"It's time to be fired!"

"Later I discovered a secret recipe, which is to have a girlfriend who is a ghost girl. The ghost girl's name is Debbie. She has blond hair and a great figure! For me, I learned Chinese food. I ate at home every day, and she cooked the food. I just sat there. Watching TV. When I encountered a word she didn’t understand, I would pat her hand, and she would sit down, turn off the TV, and tell me again. She explained it to me every day, and it took almost half an hour to explain a word.”

Yuan Biao asked curiously: "Debbie? Isn't it Susie?"

Chen Long said: "In order to learn English, I spent the whole day with foreigners. Then Aqiang came to see me. We hadn't seen each other for a long time. I was very happy, so I talked to him about Chinese. When Debbie saw it, she stopped me from speaking Chinese. I used the method she taught me to retort: ​​'you shut up'. Unexpectedly, she slapped me and I slapped her in return. The force was not very strong. It would be bad for a woman to hit her. I hit her and she left. , we broke up, and now we have another one.”

Yang Ye commented: "It is feudal superstition that you will be unlucky if you are hit by a woman. It is your responsibility for Debbie to stop you from speaking Chinese. It is not wrong. You should not hit her. Susie, please stop hitting her."

At this time Suzy came in with a bowl of salad and asked: "What are you talking about?"

Yang Ye smiled and said: "Jack said you are very sexy and charming!"

……

Yang Ye didn't even bother to change the name of the album, and directly used the name of the first single of "Youth Team" "Yumian Dance Club".

The Boy Band is the first Japanese group to break out of Asia and release an album in the United States. Their strength is quite good.

Yang Ye picked up their classic songs for a while, but the songs were picked up, and it was not that easy to record an album. Both Chen Long and Yuan Biao's Japanese are very difficult to listen to, so they have to practice their pronunciation and lip sync.

Also, dancing while singing is actually not that easy, although when recording an album, dancing and recording can be separated.

But what should we do if we hold concerts in the future? You can't lip-sync, right? Is that what people do?

So, you still have to practice!

It took half a month of hard work to record, and only two songs were recorded.

Fortunately, the cooperation of the three of them is getting better and better, and they are becoming more and more proficient, and the progress is gradually getting faster.

On this day, I finished recording the classic song "What's Your Name?" ” (the Chinese version is Little Tigers’ “Green Apple Paradise”), Chen Long said: “I’ll come over later tomorrow to pick someone up!”

Yang Ye wiped his sweat with a towel and asked casually: "Who to pick up?"

"Charlie!"

"Qin Xianglin? What is he doing in Los Angeles?"

Charlie is Qin Xianglin’s English name, and he and Chen Long are good brothers. This guy is famous for being a prodigal in love, nicknamed "Charlie with a Charm". In the original time and space, a generation of movie queen Xiao Fangfang, as well as Zhen Zhen, Teresa Teng, and Lin Qingxia all boarded her pirate ship.

"It's just a connecting flight. He's going to Hawaii, probably on vacation!"

Yang Ye's heart skipped a beat and said, "Album recording is paused. Aaron, please help me hold Qin Xianglin away from going to Hawaii."

Chen Long was confused and asked: "Why?"

"It's hard to say. Anyway, you help me hold him back. Doesn't he like beautiful women? Just introduce some ghost girls to him to play with and make him happy. The expenses will be charged to my account and I'm leaving!"

After Yang Ye finished speaking, he ran away!

Damn it, Qin Xianglin is not filming in Taiwan, so why go to Hawaii?

Lin Qingxia must be in Hawaii!

……

As the plane flew over the vast sea of ​​clouds, Yang Ye began to think about how to win back Lin Qingxia when he saw her this time.

Help her find her sister and she will be grateful to him, but this is not a necessary condition for her to accept herself again.

I have to think of a way to impress her!

But these are all things for later. There are so many islands and so many people in Hawaii. Where can Yang Ye find Lin Qingxia?

He closed his eyes and began to search for Lin Qingxia's interpersonal relationships.

……

Many years later, Lin Qingxia participated in a program called "The Idol is Coming" on Mango Channel. She said that she was like an isolated island and lived very lonely every day!

The host asked Lin Qingxia "the loneliest moment on the show". She heard that it was during her marriage, and she answered honestly that it was the first half year of her marriage to Mr. Xing.

In the first half of the year, when was it?

It was the time when he and Qin Han finally broke up after being entangled for half their lives.

At that time, she was terrified and in agony. With great longing for her past lover, she was deeply entangled in the choice of farewell.

She couldn't find peace of mind, so she finally chose to get married in a flash marriage!

But even after being married to her husband for so many years, she still doesn't feel any "warmth and dependence."

At that time, Yang Ye thought to himself that Qin Han was the one who exiled Lin Qingxia to an isolated island.

Now, this person has become me...

I won't let you be alone!

……

The plane arrived in Honolulu, the capital of Hawaii. Yang Ye first found a hotel to stay in, then checked the time and called Lin Fengjiao.

Lin Fengjiao smiled on the other end of the phone: "Why did you think of calling me?"

Yang Yekou Huahua: "I missed you."

"Stop coaxing me, you must be in trouble. Where did you call me?"

"U.S!"

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Do you know someone named Yunjing?"

"Yunjing? You mean Lu Zhizi, right?"

"Um...is there any relationship between the two?"

"Yunjing is a pen name. Her real name is Lu Zhizi. She is a screenwriter. I have worked with her!"

"So that's what happened. Do you have her address?"

Yang Ye searched through Shenwei and found that Lin Qingxia met a person named Yunjing in Hawaii. When she was frustrated in love and went to the United States to recover, it was this Yunjing who entertained her.

Unexpectedly, time and space changed, and Lin Qingxia still came to Hawaii.

But this Yunjing was not well-known, and Yang Ye couldn't search for her detailed information with his divine power, so he called Lin Fengjiao.

In the 1970s, Er Lin both filmed a large number of Taiwanese romance films, and their social circles almost overlapped.

Since Lin Qingxia knows this Yun Jing, there is a high probability that Lin Fengjiao also knows her. When I asked, it turned out to be true!

"She is not in Taiwan, she lives in Hawaii. I don't know her address, but I have her phone number."

"The phone is fine too, just tell me!"

"Wait while I look for it!"

Lin Fengjiao looked through her phone book. After a while, she told Yang Ye Yunjing's phone number, and Yang Ye quickly wrote it down.

"So you traveled all over the world looking for Qingxia?"

Lin Fengjiao guessed what Yang Ye was doing and couldn't help but say sourly.

Yang Ye was speechless for a moment, and after a while, he said shamelessly: "Gillian, I love you too!"

"If I had known, I wouldn't have told you!" Lin Fengjiao snorted and hung up the phone.

Yang Ye sighed, put down the phone, picked it up again, and dialed Yun Jing's number.

"Hello, hello!"

Lin Qingxia's voice turned out to be on the other end of the phone, and Yang Ye was overjoyed.

He couldn't speak directly, he finally found someone, for fear that she would run away again!

When Lin Qingxia saw no one speaking on the receiver, she repeated: "Hello?"

Yang Ye pinched his voice and said: "Hello, this is FedEx. I'm sorry, I accidentally scratched your express address. Can you re-state the address?"

Lin Qingxia didn't understand the express delivery system in the United States. Although she found it a bit strange, she honestly told her the address.

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation, I will send it to you now."

Yang Ye hung up the phone, cleaned up, and left the hotel.

Honolulu is not that big. Yang Ye quickly arrived at Lin Qingxia's address. He was about to go upstairs when he saw a person and was shocked.

That man... is the Qin and Han Dynasties riding on horses!

Damn it, are all these bastards here to pick up my pieces? (End of chapter)
