Chapter 160 Poor Ghost [First update](1/2)
"Director Xu."
Qin Dong pressed the phone:
"Take two foreign language versions of the script and give them to my agent Martin."
After finishing speaking, Qin Dong looked at Martin:
"Okay, there are indeed two female characters in the script. One is a newcomer to Tom's team, and the other is a villainous female killer. You can decide for yourself which one is more suitable for Elizabeth."
Martin smiled. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain. This Chinese woman suddenly came:
"OK, let me read the script first."
After saying that, he took Elizabeth out and walked out.
"My dear, you seemed unhappy just now. What's wrong?"
Seeing that no one was around, Sisi let go and asked curiously.
"It's nothing. I'm going to film the fourth part of [Mission: Impossible]. Martin just wants to seduce someone, just the girl just now. Of course I'm not happy about it."
Qin shakes his head and talks casually.
"Oh, that's it. The girl just now is very beautiful, especially with a good figure."
Sisi stared at Qin Dong's eyes and said suggestively.
"Beautiful? She looks average to me."
Qin shook his head and replied with a somewhat disgusted expression.
"Is it normal? I think that girl has big breasts. Isn't that what you like?"
Sisi didn't believe the man's statement and pointed it out directly.
"When did I say I like people with big breasts?"
Qin Dong asked back, as if he was not such a person.
"hehe..."
Liu Sisi smiled and did not take things seriously with the man.
This man may have many problems, but Sisi is very sure about loving her. She knows that the man's love for her is very deep, very deep.
...
"Martin, were you acting just now?"
In the lounge next door, Elizabeth asked curiously.
"Didn't Martha teach you to be careful when going out?"
Martin frowned, his face turned cold, and he lectured.
"Ah...well, I was wrong. I will follow Martha's teachings carefully when I go back."
Elizabeth was taken aback and quickly apologized. Her question just now was a bit arrogant. There were indeed some things that a young artist like her was not qualified to ask.
"Remember, talk less, do more, and don't waste the opportunity."
Martin thought that Qin liked this girl, so he reminded her carefully:
"You only played a small supporting role in a literary film before, and you are not famous. This time you play the heroine of Tom's movie. You must know how to cherish and be grateful. Know who gave you the opportunity. Don't let Qin down.
Don’t cause trouble for him, understand?”
Elizabeth nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.
...
It wasn't until an hour later that someone came to notify Qin Dong.
"How about it?"
Qin Dong came to the conference room again, looked at Paramount's production supervisor Hans and asked.
"Qin, we all agree that the script is very good. There is nothing that needs to be changed. It passed perfectly. It's just that there are a lot of shooting scenes. We traveled to many countries. I'm afraid that in half a month, the preliminary work may not be completed."
Hans said a little embarrassed.
After they read the script, they discussed it together. They felt that the script was perfect and could definitely be filmed directly. There was no need to modify the script. However, they found that the locations of Qin Dong's script involved multiple countries. These communications were very troublesome. In just half a month
A little difficult.
"Hans..."
Qin Dong didn't say anything, but asked:
"Have you checked my information before you came here?"
Hans nodded.
"Now that you've checked, you know my movie-making habits. Don't apply your Hollywood model to me."
Qin shook his head and said calmly:
"My time is precious, so I will give you five more days."
"If you can't accomplish this in 20 days, then I will doubt your ability at Paramount."
Martin heard Qin Dong's tone and stood up:
"Hans, I hope you will convey my customer's wishes to Paramount's senior management."
"Qin is very busy. This time he took over the job temporarily. It only took him three days to write the script you have. I have read the script and my opinion is the same as yours. It is perfect.
The script can definitely boost the reputation of the [Mission: Impossible] series."
"So, don't make things difficult for my customers. Otherwise, as Qin's agent, I can only bring Tom, our old CAA customer, to change some plots in this script so that it will not have anything to do with [Mission: Impossible].
It’s time to start shooting a new movie.”
Hans looked at Martin's face and then at Qin Dong, he understood.
This Chinese director doesn't want to talk nonsense at all, and Martin, the president of CAA, actually follows the steps of this Chinese director.
"OK, I understand. I will report to the senior management after I return and try to secure these shooting locations within 20 days."
Only then did Qin Dong smile:
"That's right. What a wonderful thing it is for everyone to do things neatly and not waste each other's time."
"Actually, if some locations cannot be fixed in the short term, we can directly shoot with green screens and models."
Hans felt better now. No one else would be comfortable being treated rudely all the time.
It would be easier if Qin Dong took a step back after saying this.
After all, green screen is a magical part of filming a movie.
If there is no suitable location, then green screen can meet all your requirements. Whatever location you want, green screen can do it.
When combined with a green screen, the model can express any scene you want.
"Qin, our preliminary calculation of the cost is about US$120 million to US$150 million."
Qin Dong was stunned and shook his head with a smile:
"I don't understand this. I don't know much about prices in foreign countries. It's up to you to figure this out. I'm only responsible for filming. By the way, the crew, I will bring my team. You can also put some people in and let me
Look how your Hollywood crew works."
Hans nodded, hesitated for a moment and then asked:
"Then editing rights..."
Before Hans could finish speaking, Qin Dong pointed out:
"Hans, it goes without saying. Martin knows my habits. Just wait until you go back and ask him."
"I've heard about your movie-making model, but those things are none of my business. I have the final say on everything about my movie."
"You can send a producer to supervise the operation of the crew, you can also send people to provide music, and you can also have subtitle translators. Other things have nothing to do with you."
"When I finish the post-production of the film and the finished film is released, you can come and watch it before we talk about anything else."
Seeing what Hans and Tom's CEO Caitlin wanted to say, Qin Dong didn't give him a chance and stood up directly:
"That's it, you only have 20 days, so don't waste time with me."
"Martin, take them back."
When Martin received Qin Dong's eyes, he understood what he was thinking as a customer, and stood up:
"Hans, Caitlin, let's go."
"Qin, I'm leaving first. In a month, I'll ask you to pick up other scripts, by the way..."
Thinking of something, Martin pulled Qin Dong to the corner of the house and whispered:
"Qin, the copyright of the novel [Get Out of My Way, Let Me Embrace Happiness] that you mentioned is going to make Jennifer win an Oscar has been taken over by the Weinstein Company. In Harvey's hands, the other party has no intention of selling the copyright."
"This man is very energetic when it comes to Oscars, you see..."
