chapter 145

Brother Russell, chatting while looking at the door.

Suddenly, a famous person in Hollywood appeared in front of them.

The daring younger brother, Joe Russell, suddenly stood up, ignoring the stunned expression of his older brother, and approached Steve Kevin.

"stop!"

The bodyguard stopped Joe Russell immediately. Strangers would not be allowed to get too close without Kevin making a sound.

No way, Kevin is too scared to die.

Happy America, shootout every day.

Accidentally, his rich man was shot and killed, but he lost a lot.

Even the car, he has replaced it with bulletproof and explosion-proof, all he wants is safety.

Seeing that he could not get close, Joe Russell immediately became anxious and shouted:

"Director Steve Kevin, I'm an admirer of you, and I'm also a director, my name is Joe Russell."

"I hope you can give me a chance to sign a contract with Chenxi Films."

Kevin's morning movie, of course, is also signing a director, and the conditions offered are also very good, which makes many people jealous.

However, the conditions are also not low.

At least the Russell brothers can't get through.

Today, I was finally able to meet Steve Kevin in person, and Joe Russell immediately stepped forward, trying to fight for it.

Kevin's expression moved.

If it is a director who has never heard of it, he will definitely ignore it. There should not be too many directors who want to join the morning movie.

It's a pity that the famous director, everyone else has a fixed film company.

If they didn't succeed, most of them were not skilled enough to get into the eyes of Chen Xi's movies.

But he had heard the name Joe Russell.

The director of the future Avengers 3 and Avengers 4.

They have also filmed many movies in Marvel, and they are all good at the box office. Kevin suddenly thought.

Chapter 215 Talking about special effects processing

This is not to say that it is a famous director, but at least, in the film industry, it is still qualified to make a screw.

Under the command of income, it is a business that can make a steady profit without losing money.

As it happens, the TV series of Pirates of the Caribbean needs a director.

With the skills of these two directors, there may be some problems in making movies, but if you are making TV series, it is more than enough.

"Joe Russell?"

"Do you have any work?"

Kevin motioned for the bodyguard to move away, walked to Joe Russell and asked with a smile.

Joe Russell was instantly overjoyed, and the opportunity to have a conversation with a big man like Steve Kevin was a huge opportunity in itself.

"Yes, yes."

While speaking, Joe Russell organized the language and said:

"My brother and I made a sci-fi comedy movie before, but it didn't get much response, and there were a lot of short films."

Kevin knew as soon as he heard it that the film must have made the investors lose money, otherwise.

It has been more than two years, and it is impossible for them to have no dramas to film.

"Can you make a TV show?"

Kevin asked quietly.

"Yes, of course."

All Kevin's performance is saying that he is just looking for an ordinary director to make a TV series.

However, for the Russo brothers, it is already a very good thing to have a job and a play to shoot. At this time, they have no choice.

"Okay, then you and your brother, come to Chenxi Film Company together, we are going to shoot a TV series soon."

Overjoyed, Joe Russell hurriedly called his brother over and introduced him to Kevin.

In the hall, there were several directors who also heard Kevin's words and swarmed one by one.

"Director Kevin, I also have works, you can see if I can join the morning movie!"

"And I."

"Me too!"

The two bodyguards stopped everyone who was approaching. Kevin smiled and said to everyone:

"Enough, it's enough to have the Russo brothers. Next time, if there is a chance, I will come to the director's union to recruit more people."

Immediately, everyone looked at Brother Russell with envy and hatred. At the same time, they were all depressed in their hearts, why couldn't they be the first to rush forward just now.

Of course, even if they did come forward, if it weren't for a future famous director like the Russo brothers, Kevin wouldn't want it.

But, of course, this kind of words will not be said to the outside world.

In the eyes of the outside world, the Russell brothers are the two lucky ones, and good luck is valued by Kevin.

After saying this to the others, Kevin looked at Brother Russell again and said:

"You come to Chenxi Film Company to report tomorrow, and I will arrange for someone to inspect you. If there is no problem, you can sign a long-term contract with Chenxi Film Company, and at the same time directly start directing from TV dramas."

After all, Kevin turned and left.

Brother Russell, looking at the hostile colleagues around, immediately packed up and left here.

No way, although I really want to show off, but first, they haven't signed a long-term contract.

Second, these people can't wait to eat their brothers one by one, and then stay, it is possible to be beaten.

It's better to keep a low profile.

However, with Kevin's promise, even the footsteps became lighter.

....

Kevin, who had left the director's union, called Dawson and asked him to do a proficiency test for the two of them tomorrow. After signing a ten-year contract, Kevin came to the editors' union again and needed to create a script. , handed it over to the screenwriters union, and at the same time offered a high screenwriter fee, as well as the conditions for authorship.

Hollywood TV and movie script creation are often collectively created. It is normal for a movie to have seven or eight screenwriters.

But the vast majority do not get the right to sign.

Only one of them, or two, or no more than three, can obtain the authorship.

And if they can often get the authorship, they can be regarded as famous screenwriters, and the price they can get is several times that of ordinary screenwriters.

Those legendary screenwriters can even get a share of the box office.

As soon as Kevin's condition came out, countless screenwriters were tempted to sign up.

But this point, Kevin does not care.

The follow-up list will be sent to Chenxi Movie, and he only needs to be responsible for the final selection.

The first two rounds of screening are enough to screen out all unqualified screenwriters.

・・・

Another day passed quickly.

After arranging the work of the TV series, the follow-up will be handed over to other departments of Chenxi to do it one by one.

Kevin began to learn to let go gradually.

A true group company, its subsidiaries, have independent profitability.

The morning movie should be the same.

TV dramas are the first step in Kevin's attempt. Even if there is a loss, in the form of TV dramas, it is not much money to lose two or three episodes.

Millions of dollars, Kevin loses easily.

But this can help Chenxi Film gradually become independent, which is worth it.

After leaving the morning light, Kevin went straight to MGM.

Tsui Hark has brought the entire production team to the MGM studio.

At this time, blocks of green screens are being built in the venue.

The staff are busy.

Kevin came directly to Tsui Hark from the set.

Tsui Hark, who was directing the crew to set up the scene, saw Kevin coming, and quickly finished his orders, and then he smiled.

"Kevin!"

"Director Tsui Hark, how are you busy? I'll come to see you and see what the crew is doing."

The smile on Tsui Hark's face became more real.

For Steve Kevin, the investor, and the producer, he is quite satisfied, except at the beginning, after setting the tone for the film according to his requirements.

Others, regarding the filming process, basically do not interfere in the whole process, even supervision is exempted.

This is the first time he has seen such a good investor.

It is almost the same as the operation of those gangsters in Hong Kong when they launder money.

"There are not many scenes left. If it is filming, it is estimated that more than a month will be enough. For special effects, see Director Kevin..."

"How about a special effects company for Star Wars?"

Tsui Hark was stunned for a moment, and then a happy expression appeared on his face.

This is the top special effects company in Hollywood, and in such a movie, it can completely achieve the effect he wants.

The only problem is, don't make Shushan into another version of Star Wars.

I don't know if ILM can handle the taste of Xianxia's culture.

Xu Ke hesitated:

"Technically speaking, they certainly have no problem, but there are cultural differences in it, and I don't know if they can understand it."

"Like a magic weapon, can Director Kevin understand it?"

Kevin nodded.

Of course he understood this, but Tsui Hark's concerns were also justified.

He understands the magic weapon very well, which made those special effects personnel see it. It is estimated that it is difficult to understand what the magic weapon is.

Chapter 216 Going to ILM

Tsui Hark continued:

"But those who make special effects may not be able to understand it. It's easy to make other styles of special effects, which may not match the movie at all."

"What you said makes sense. In this way, you can arrange the work here. I will go to Industrial Light and Magic with you and have a careful exchange with them."

Facing Tsui Hark's worries, Kevin thought for a while and decided to run with him.

If the special effects are nondescript, then Shushan will lose its biggest selling point, and the possibility of box office failure will be greatly increased.

Only through him, a person who understands the cultures of both sides, can we best exchange views on both sides.

"it is good!"

At this important juncture, Kevin Ken came forward, and Tsui Hark must be happy.

With Kevin coming forward, others should pay more or less attention.

For him to run by himself, others will perfunctory him if it's hard to say. After all, he is not well-known in Hollywood, and even if he perfunctory, he can't help others.
