Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 63 Sincerity is the ultimate skill
What kind of movie is "Death Proof"?
In fact, it is not too bad, it is a very typical B-level thriller.

But in Quentin's movies, it is a fight to maintain the second place and strive for the first place.

Of course, it must be the countdown!
And the main reason why he is trying to maintain the second place and strive for the first place is that Quentin has promised to only make ten movies in his lifetime, and the last one has not been made yet. Maybe he can make a big one.

Even this movie was released directly as a DVD in North America and never showed in theaters.

"Humph!"

Quentin and Gu Bei looked at each other for a moment. Seeing that Gu Bei had no intention of bowing his head, he snorted coldly, "Anthony, I'm going to go drink somewhere else."

After saying that, he left Anthony's apartment drunk.

Seeing this, Gu Bei frowned:
"Is it okay to let him leave like this?"

Anthony heard this and looked at Gu Bei with some surprise.

I didn't expect that after such a conflict, Gu Bei could still remain so calm.

Gu Bei simply explained calmly: "According to New York City law, it is a misdemeanor for a drunk to cause trouble in public."

"Hahaha, it looks like you've had a personal experience, Bruce."

Gu Bei heard Anthony's teasing,

Even Liu Yifei beside him looked at Gu Bei curiously. She had never seen Gu Bei drink before.
He knew they had misunderstood.

"I'm not! I didn't! It's none of my business!" Gu Bei denied it three times in a row, "I've bailed out my classmates before."

Alcoholism is a long-standing problem in North America.

In most states, they would just lock them up overnight and then release them after they had cooled down.

But New York has strict regulations on city appearance.
Drunkenness and disorderly conduct is a misdemeanor and is punishable by jail time.

I learned about this law when I bailed out a classmate when I was at Gubei University.

Of course, the final result was a plea bargain, which was exchanged for more than ten hours of community service.

"That's okay. The van driver is waiting for Quentin downstairs."

Gu Bei saw Anthony waving his hands indifferently, so he didn't care.

Then he saw Anthony sigh and said to him:
"Bruce, you are still too impulsive and shouldn't have clashed with Quentin.
Tarantino and Weinstein are very influential in the independent film world.

This is also my fault. I shouldn't have called you here today."

Gu Bei shook his head: "It's not your fault."

After a pause, he said with relief: "Besides, I am just a nobody now. Connecting me with Quentin will only benefit me, not harm me."

Things like touch porcelain marketing,

For the unknown Gu Bei,

On the contrary, it can gain greater attention and the work can be seen by more people.
It can even be said to be a good thing.

Gu Bei had not originally intended to use this trick.
But since Quentin has already mocked him, it’s no wonder that Gu Bei borrowed his head!
"Then you are not afraid of Weinstein. The two brothers treat Quentin like a treasure." Anthony was afraid that Gu Bei didn't know how powerful Weinstein was.

Gu Bei smiled faintly and asked directly:
“Who would want to make independent films when they can make mainstream commercial films?”

Anthony and Gu Bei looked at each other and understood Gu Bei's ambition.

The Weinstein brothers do have a very strong influence in the field of independent films.
However, their influence in the field of mainstream commercial films is much smaller.

Gu Bei had already made plans for future development.

He has no intention of continuing to delve into the independent film industry.

After making two independent films to accumulate resources, we will have to move into the mainstream commercial film field.

His time is very precious. He needs to make enough money as soon as possible so that he can return to China to start his own business. After all, he has a yellow skin and there will always be an invisible barrier for him in Hollywood.

"Okay, let's talk about the characters."

Gu Bei saw Anthony take out a stack of printed scripts. It was as if he was being interviewed.

Although among the two, Gu Bei is the director and Anthony is just an actor.

“In fact, the role of the father seems to have very few scenes, but he is a very crucial hidden line.

Although he failed in his career, he has always been very supportive and loving to his son.

Finally, behind the curtain, he watched his son become possessed by the devil, and this required a very explosive look.”

"You mean this..."

Anthony prepared himself a little.

His eyes instantly turned into Hannibal's, as if Gu Bei and Liu Yifei opposite him had turned into two delicacies.

"Haha, of course not this..."

What emerged in Gu Bei’s mind was Odin, the king of gods in “Thor” a few years later.

Whether it is his kindness to Thor or his disappointment in Thor,
Anthony uses his delicate eyes to express the subtle emotions between father and son.

The $1000 million salary Marvel spent on him was not wasted at all.

After a pause, Gu Bei continued: "Of course, I also hope to attract more critics and audiences.

There isn't a single famous actor in our crew.
In Hollywood today, even art needs a certain level of fame to attract people.”

"You are quite sincere when you say this."

Anthony smiled in surprise when he heard this.

Gu Bei acted very calmly.

This was actually his real purpose, to assemble a luxurious cast for his first feature film.

He came to persuade Anthony, but he didn't have much strategy.

If there is, it should be 'Sincerity is the ultimate weapon'!

This trick was taught to Gu Bei by his mother who is a businesswoman.

When facing a big shot like Anthony, you don't need to be too cunning. Just put yourself in the position of a person seeking help, state your demands, and the rest depends on the big shot's own consideration.

Otherwise, Gu Bei has plenty of explanations.

He could use Anthony's own words just now, that he provoked Quentin because of Anthony's invitation.

Alternatively, he could also stand on Anthony's side and persuade Anthony to support himself as a newcomer, which would enhance Anthony's reputation.

But these things are too empty.

Even if Anthony's regular guest appearance price does not reach Marvel's $1000 million salary, the crew cannot afford it even if they sell him out.

Instead of playing tricks on Anthony,
Gu Bei should be more sincere.
After all, people of Anthony's age have probably experienced all kinds of tricks.

“How long do you plan to shoot for?”

Anthony pondered for a moment and then asked.

"The concentrated scene shooting lasted two or three days, all day shooting,
The remaining scattered scenes, with few shots, move to a different place every day,
One week is enough!"

Gu Bei was delighted.

Judging from Anthony's tone, it seems like there might be something going on!

If he is willing to join, let alone a week, he will have to be driven out for three days!
"There's no need to rush. I don't have any work recently, and I still need some more time to prepare." Anthony is well-known for his love of making more preparations before filming.

"Then you need to talk to your agent..."

Compared to actors, agents are the most difficult to deal with.
