Dreams of the Fragrant River

: Five hundred and fifty-three [Guojun Wangfu]

Kang Jianfei chatted with Anne Hurd and Barry Morrow, then took the script and read it. [This book is published by the first] After seeing only half of it, Kang Jianfei knew that what he had obtained was the original script of "Rain Man", which was very different from the plot in the pre-traveling movie.

After reading the script patiently, Kang Jianfei said to Barry Morrow, "The script is good and very touching."

"Thanks for the compliment!" said Barry Morrow happily.

There are so many screenwriters in Hollywood that they write countless scripts every year, but very few can actually be made into movies. For young screenwriters like Barry Morrow, unless they are lucky enough to meet Bole, they have to slowly build up their qualifications and experience, and accumulate fame step by step before they can get ahead.

The "Rain Man" script could be appreciated by the studio boss. Barry Morrow felt that he was one step closer to success, and the fat on his chubby face trembled as he laughed.

"Well," Kang Jianfei's next words made Barry Morrow's heart tighten, "the script still has some shortcomings, and the filming may not be satisfactory."

Barry Morrow hurriedly said, "Mr. Kang, I'll revise it carefully."

"I hope I can revise it myself," Kang Jianfei smiled and said to him, "Don't worry, the first screenwriter will still sign your name."

For the screenwriter, the script is like his child, but now Kang Jianfei is going to be this child's stepfather, Barry Morrow is still a little awkward.

However, even a well-known senior screenwriter cannot guarantee that his script will not be changed word for word. Faced with the request of Kang Jianfei, an investor, Barry Morrow can only nod his head in agreement.

Kang Jianfei asked Anne Hurd again, "Who do you think should be the director?"

"How about Sidney Pollack?" asked Anne Hurd.

Sidney Pollack is the one who just finished filming "Out of Africa". He went to Hong Kong with the script more than a year ago to fool Kang Jianfei into investing 10 million yuan, and then took Kang Jianfei's investment letter of intent and ran back to the United States to fool 20th Century Fox. put money.

And precisely because of the cooperation "Out of Africa", Anne Hurd and Pollack have a good personal relationship. After getting the script of "Rain Man", the first reaction was to let Pollack be the director.

The original director of "Rain Man" was Barry Levinson, but his current status and fame in Hollywood is far less than that of Sidney Pollack.

Kang Jianfei thought about it and said, "Yes. You can contact him."

After getting rid of the two Yankees, Kang Jianfei flew north with the script of "Rain Man" the next day. Hu Juncai's kid's wedding was about to be held. As the first friend he met after crossing the road, Kang Jianfei had to go to the wedding anyway.

Anne Hurd contacted Sidney Pollack as soon as she returned to the United States. I wanted to invite him to be the director of "Rain Man", but it was a pity that Pollack had just received a movie and had no time to make "Rain Man" at all.

Then there was a strange coincidence that made Kang Jianfei feel that after Sidney Pollack refused to direct "Rain Man", he actually recommended Barry Levinson, the original director of "Rain Man" in another time and space to Anne Hurd. .

It turns out that the two directors, Barack and Levinson, were good friends. A few years ago, the world-famous "My Fair Lady" was written and directed by Barry Levinson and directed by Sidney Pollack.

After all this, "Rain Man" finally fell into the hands of Barry Levinson, but the second screenwriter became Kang Jianfei.

...

"A Fei!" The pick-up port at the Capital Airport. The pretty widow Ye Zipei, who had not seen each other for several months, suppressed her excitement and waved at Kang Jianfei and shouted.

Zhang Degong, Zhu Zhenguo, and Liu Fei were three bodyguards dragging their luggage behind. Kang Jianfei walked over quickly and hugged Ye Zipei tightly, giving him a warm hug.

Although Chinese people rarely make out on the streets these days, it is fortunate that many foreign film and television works have flowed in. In addition, people who can fly are more knowledgeable than the average person, so the surrounding passengers are not surprised by the actions of the two.

But Ye Zipei was a little embarrassed, because Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan were also beside her, she pushed Kang Jianfei away and whispered, "Don't do this!"

Kang Jianfei smiled and turned towards Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan, and said, "Congratulations to the two of you, the lovers are finally married."

Ye Zishan smiled happily: "Thank you."

Hu Juncai was also overjoyed. He asked, "A Fei, when will it be my turn to drink your wedding wine?"

Since having a daughter, Kang Jianfei is no longer so afraid of family and marriage, but he is not sure who he should marry. The main reason is that he has too many women.

There were two cars outside the airport lobby, one was Hu Juncai's private car. One is the bus of Ye Shan's family.

Hu Juncai's private car is very interesting. It looks square and rigid, but it has some subtle curvatures and edges, which can be described as clever and clumsy. At first glance, the appearance of the car was ugly, but after a few more glances, I found that it had a little taste. A very classic looking model.

Kang Jianfei got in the car and asked, "What kind of car is this? It's quite unique. I'll get one another day."

Hu Juncai introduced: "Lada 2105, a rough car imported from the Soviet Union, can't compare with your car."

Ye Pei now lives in Ye's residence in the capital, and Kang Jianfei rarely goes to a hotel, so he lives directly in a courtyard house in Xicheng District.

Kang Jianfei asked Hu Juncai to help buy this courtyard house. It cost 600,000 yuan to run government relations and resettle the original residents. At this time, the average Beijing courtyard house was only 5,000 to 6,000 yuan.

The reason why Kang Jianfei spent so much money on the courtyard is that he bought the top-quality courtyard in the capital - the Guojun Palace in Mengrui Hutong.

Yes, it is the King Guojun in "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

However, the palace of the King of Guojun is too large, divided into dozens of courtyards, with a total of 150 or 60 houses. Kang Jianfei only bought the 41st, 42nd, 43rd, 44th and 45th courtyards of Guojun Wangfu for 600,000 yuan.

If Kang Jianfei doesn't buy it, these houses will be demolished in 20 years and only part of the 45th courtyard will remain. He feels that he is not only taking advantage of the good things to buy, but also protecting the cultural relics.

After a few months of renovations, the five courtyards have all become brand new, which are many times better than Hu Juncai's purchase of the courtyard.

After the founding of New China, the courtyards in the capital have basically become large courtyards. Hu Juncai's courtyard is a typical example. Every day, you can hear children crying and husband and wife arguing.

Kang Jianfei is much more generous, a resident who originally lived in five courtyard houses. He directly gave the family 5,000 yuan, more than enough money to buy another house, and the "aboriginal people" happily moved out quickly.

I have to say that Kang Jianfei has too much RMB in his hands. More to the point of endless spending.

All the money earned from selling movies in the mainland is in RMB, which cannot be exchanged for U.S. dollars or Hong Kong dollars to take away, and can only be invested and spent in the mainland. In addition to building a movie theater, opening a department store and a record company, Kang Jianfei really doesn't know how to spend money, so he can only buy things everywhere to turn the renminbi into fixed assets.

Moreover, several department stores and record companies of Kang Jianfei are also making money every day, and the RMB in their hands is becoming more and more.

Just after the Spring Festival this year, Kang Jianfei donated 2 million yuan each to the local government that cooperated with him to build a cinema, 1 million yuan each to the ten best universities in China, and then to Dengfeng County, where the Shaolin Temple is located. and Zheng/Zhou City donated 1 million and 2 million respectively. Then, it donated a total of 10 million scholarship funds to more than a dozen poverty-stricken areas.

Kang Jianfei donated more than 40 million RMB that could not be spent within a month, and his generosity has surpassed that of Boss Shao and Huo Daheng, and he suddenly became a big red capitalist. The leaders of the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office and the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency are also very happy, because Kang Jianfei's patriotic behavior is their great political achievement.

"This place is not bad!" Kang Jianfei walked into the 45th courtyard of his Guojun Wangfu. Can not help but admire.

Although it is not as delicate and delicate as the southern gardens, this county palace has its own grandeur and grandeur. Compared with the Guojun palace with its deep courtyard and carved beams, Kang Jianfei felt that his Repulse Bay No. 4 villa was rubbish.

Ye Pei also came here for the first time, and couldn't help but praised: "It's so beautiful here, it's almost catching up with the palace."

Hu Juncai said: "You don't know, the No. 45 courtyard is better. When the No. 41 and No. 43 courtyards were just bought, the yard was full of dirt and sewage, the foundation was a little rotten, and the walls in many places were also broken. It cost tens of thousands of yuan to repair the courtyard, enough to buy ten courtyard houses in Beijing.”

Kang Jianfei said, "If you like it, you can all move in. Anyway, if Wujin's yard is empty, it can only get moldy."

"Okay, you can come here to relax when you have nothing to do." Ye Shan said first, she couldn't survive at home after all, and now she has honestly joined the regiment center as a small staff member.

Hu Juncai is now the shareholder and general manager of Shaolin Temple Tourism Development Company and Oriental International Cinema (theatrical company), not to mention his wealth in the mainland. Even in Hong Kong, it can be considered a small local tyrant.

With money, it is easy to do things. Hu Juncai and Ye Zishan's wedding will not be held until the day after, but all preparations have been done long ago, just waiting for the guests to get married.

A few people were sitting under the tree in the palace garden, and a pot of tea was placed on a stone table. It was not interesting for everyone to drink tea and chat.

After chatting for a long time, the topic became serious. Hu Juncai said: ""Shushan" sold very well in the mainland, but the box office was less than 30 million, do you believe it?"

Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "Anyway, the mainland box office DreamWorks of "Shushan" is less than a dime. It doesn't matter if I believe it or not."

Hu Juncai said sternly: "I mean, the reviews of DreamWorks' films released in the Mainland last year were all well received by the market, but the box office was less than one film."

"Why?" Ye Pei asked curiously.

Hu Juncai explained: "The major theaters are getting more and more rampant. In the past, they only sold pirated copies to conceal the box office a month after the film was released, so as to make a little money and give out unit benefits. Now they dare to mess around just after the film is released. The pirated copies are shown from start to finish, and the box office is all split between local governments and cinemas.”

"Oh, forget it, the general environment is like this." Kang Jianfei said with emotion, this phenomenon has been common in 2000, and you can't control it at all. It's still good now, at least most of the box office has been reported. Ten years later, if a movie sells 30 million, it will be good if the film can see 10 million at the box office, so that the movie theater makes a lot of money, and the film's production The company has lost money.

In the lost ten years of Chinese movies, the total box office volume was so low, in addition to piracy and the invasion of DVDs, another important reason was that the movie theaters cheated and made a lot of Chinese movies that should make money lose money. As a result, directors made movies. They can only make money by selling overseas copyrights for prizes, and few people make films for the domestic box office.

Hu Juncai said: "The best way is to build more theaters of my own. I plan to expand the scale of Oriental International Cinemas to 8 this year. I have already settled the official relationship and will start construction next month."

Kang Jianfei had a lot of renminbi he couldn't use up anyway. He smiled and said, "You can figure it out." Then he asked Ye Zipei, "Sister Pei, how is Xiongfei Records?"

Ye Zipei smiled and said, "I've got cramps when I count the money. The company's net profit last year was more than 11 million."

"How much?" Kang Jianfei looked at Ye Zipei in surprise. There were only seven or eight employees and singers in Xiongfei Records, and there would actually be tens of millions of net profits.

Yeppei said: "Last year, Li Ningyu released two albums, both of which sold more than 2 million copies. She earned more than half of the company's profits."

Yes, this is the advantage of a large population base. In Hong Kong with a developed economy, Anita Mui sells 200,000 copies of a single album, even if it is not bad, but the economically backward mainland can easily sell several million copies. Moreover, the record tapes in mainland China were still very expensive at this time, with a tape costing five or six yuan, and the monthly salary of most workers was less than 100 yuan.

Kang Jianfei nodded in approval and said, "Well, yes, give her a little more red envelopes, lest she be poached."

Ye Zipei said with a smile: "You still need to say that the red envelope was given long ago. Ayu is a little rich woman now, and she has at least 200,000 in the bank."

This is not an era to show off their wealth~www.wuxiaspot.com~ People who have money are afraid of being known. Many households with 10,000 yuan of food and clothing are the same as those who beg for food. They are afraid that if they have more money, they will become capitalists and be criticized.

When Li Ningyu was interviewed a few years ago, she excitedly told reporters that she was about to become a million-dollar household by singing...

Ye Pei said: "It's still Ah Fei that your songs are well written, and the capital is very popular."

"Yeah," Ye Zishan said, "The song "The Moon Goes and I Go Also" was played all over the street after Li Ningyu became popular in the Spring Festival Gala. My dad likes to listen to it."

Kang Jianfei smiled shamelessly and said, "Haha, Ayu still sings well."

ps:

I wish you all a happy Tanabata.

Pharaoh broke again a few days ago. I'm really sorry. If you want to learn to drive, you have to accompany your sister, and the old classmate who just contacted after returning to his hometown shouts out every day to drink and play mahjong. I still have a script for a micro-movie that I haven't handed in, and I feel like there's simply not enough time.
