Entertainment tycoon since 83

Chapter 139 Choice
"Hahaha."

I signed again and looked up at Quentin Tarantino, who was leaving.

Huang Ze was in a pretty good mood. He just felt that he might have another person who could cheer for him in the director circle in the future.

Well, if I can recruit more directors like this, when they become famous, I will have many students all over the world.

Isn’t your status rising rapidly?
And others will also think that it is easier to become famous by following you.

Just thinking about it makes me happy!

Of course, it's just something he's thinking about now. After thinking about it, in order to break into the Hollywood market in one fell swoop, he still has to continue signing. It took another seven days from New York to Los Angeles, California, and then Huang Ze was finally free.

Huang Ze asked his assistant to buy a ticket back to Hong Kong Island the day after tomorrow, and asked the driver he hired here to drive directly to the suburbs of Los Angeles.

California State University, Northridge.

Zhang Yu is studying here.

Huang Ze also came here to find her.

It is not only a reminiscing of the past, but also a request from someone.

"Hello."

"Hello."

When they arrived at the dormitory, even though Huang Ze was wearing sunglasses, many people recognized him and greeted him.

Huang Ze waved his hand, then walked straight to the address provided by Zhang Jianya and knocked on the door.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Who is it? Why are you being so polite?" The voice of the person inside had a rap flavor. When she opened the door, it was indeed a black girl. When she saw Huang Ze for the first time, she covered her mouth and said, "Hey, man, did someone say that you look a bit like the singer Jerry Huang?"

"Someone said so." Out of politeness, Huang Ze took off his sunglasses.

Then, the black girl stopped talking, too excited to control herself, "So, you're here to see me? Jerry, I'd like to have dinner with you."

"Uh..." This was an unexpected way of opening Huang Ze, so he simply put on his sunglasses and said, "I'll look for Zhang Yu, I'm her friend."

"Oh……"

Hei Mei felt a little disappointed and opened the door.

Zhang Yu had heard the voice and came out. He was startled when he saw Huang Ze, "I can tell from the voice that it's you. Why are you here?"

"What? I can't come?"

Huang Ze smiled and said, "I'm here to promote my new film. I want to come and see an old friend. Is that okay with you?"

"Let's go find a restaurant and have a meal. We can talk while we eat."

"You are familiar with this place. You can choose the place."

"Okay!" It was a rare opportunity for Zhang Yu to see an old friend here. At the same time, he knew that Huang Ze was not short of money, so he did not refuse and chose a Chinese restaurant.

"Let me tell you, the dishes served at many Chinese restaurants here taste different from those in China. This one is the most authentic one."

"Haha, then I have to try it. I haven't had a good Chinese meal in the past few months." Huang Ze picked out seven dishes from the menu and handed them to Zhang Yu, "Come on, pick a few."

"I won't choose." Zhang Yu shook his head, "I'm not picky about food."

"Okay!" Huang Ze handed the menu to the waiter, "Why don't you ask why Jianya didn't come?"

"What are you doing?" Zhang Yu asked curiously, "I wrote to you before saying that I went to Hong Kong Island with you to work? Did you let him be a director?"

"Exactly!"

Huang Ze nodded, "After this film is finished, he may come to the United States to see you."

It would cost a lot of money to go to the United States now, stay for a few days and then go back, and the key is that you have to spend US dollars.

Zhang Jianya doesn't have that much money.

He didn't ask me to borrow it, so I couldn't lend it to him actively, otherwise it might hurt his self-esteem.

I think he is waiting for "The Ring" to achieve success and get a red envelope. By then, his financial situation will be able to support him staying in the United States for a while.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time. We can only keep in touch through letters." Zhang Yu also looked nostalgic. Not long after they got married, he had the opportunity to study abroad.

Having only a junior high school education was a permanent pain for him, and since the destination was the United States, he was tempted.

Deep down, she still felt guilty.

Thinking of the other party's support for her studying abroad, a smile appeared on her face, "He finally became a director. He doesn't have to co-direct with others, right?"

"Do you think it's possible?" Huang Ze asked back.

"Hehe." Zhang Yu smiled, "I'm still very happy for him."

As they chatted, Zhang Yu asked a very important question, "By the way, Huang Ze, you are well-informed, what do you think of me immigrating to the United States?"

"not so good!"

"Huh?" Zhang Yu was a little surprised. He didn't expect Huang Ze to give such an answer.

That is the beacon in the hearts of countless people!

"Can't you see the difference from my choice? I thought immigration should be easy, right? But I didn't choose to do so!" However, Huang Ze mainly felt that he would encounter an invisible ceiling in the United States.

You also have to worry about being sued for any little thing, and then having to pay billions of dollars in compensation, and then continuing to stay in jail after paying the compensation.

I don’t feel safe!

At least the connections in the country are much more solid than those in the United States.

Of course, there was no need to talk to Zhang Yu about the invisible ceiling, so he just said a name, "Does Chen Chong know?"

"What do you think?" Zhang Yu glared at Huang Ze. "We are from the same place, the same film studio, and we went to the same school in the United States. Not only do we know each other, we are also very familiar with each other."

"Do you know what roles she played when she first started in Hollywood? Have you seen "The Big Boss"? "

When this question was asked, Zhang Yu's face turned red.

Although she filmed "Lush Mountain Love", which is known as the first kissing scene in China, it was just a kiss on the cheek, unlike in "The Big Boss". She felt that she could not get over this psychological barrier.

"Besides, does Hollywood need so many Chinese actors? If you try to get in, you will be in direct competition with Chen Chong. You are not as brave as he is."

"More importantly, it's not that you're not pretty, it's mainly because your image doesn't have an advantage over Chen Chong in the eyes of Americans! It's not the type that they like."

"If you want to move, you might as well go to Hong Kong Island. You won't miss anything." Huang Ze offered him an olive branch. "Aren't you studying film and television production? Come and work in my company. You and your wife can be reunited, and you can hang out with Gong Xing."

"I haven't graduated yet. Will I contact you when I graduate?"

"Sure!" Huang Ze nodded with a smile, "Study hard!"

……

After meeting Zhang Yu, Huang Ze had nothing else to do in the United States and returned to Hong Kong Island on July 7.

I went home to see Gong Xing first, and then came to the company the next day.

Zhang Jianya was not there, so when I asked, he said he was in the editing room and walked straight in.

"Are you back?" Zhang Jianya, who was editing, came over after seeing Huang Ze.

"Well, I've seen Zhang Yu, it's pretty good."

As for the other party's intention to immigrate to the United States, Huang Ze decided to tell Zhang Jianya after finishing the production of "The Ring".

Anyway, we don’t need these few days.

"By the way, how's the film going?"

"It's basically cut, take a look and see if there are any problems!"

"Okay." Huang Ze took the initiative to watch the finished film.

no problem!
"It's ready to be cut."

"Let's hurry up with the post-production. I'll give you some pointers when you're making the soundtrack. Let's finish the film as soon as possible, set a release date, and try to release it before August 15th." The last time "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" suffered from the release date, this time it will have to benefit from the summer box office.

You have to eat it for at least half a month.

The largest audience for horror movies is young people. Would it be okay if there is no summer season?
