"This is called "The End of the Flower"!"

Chen Qi focused on introducing the second film and said: "I will start next year. You can slowly figure out the role and you must calm down and devote yourself to it."

"Is this the Hollywood movie you gave me?"

Lin Qingxia was fumbled into the script and became excited inexplicably: "Who am I working with? Who is the director?"

"It's not decided yet! You are the only Chinese character in this film, and the rest are foreigners. You should know how much box office risk I took when I joined you. You will compete with Oscar-level actors. I am ugly in the front. If you don't meet the requirements, I will change people!"

After hearing what he said, Lin Qingxia became serious and nodded, "I will do my best!"

"That's good. Next, you will live in Hong Kong and be familiar with everyone. After all, you are a member of us. Oh, by the way, there is a little girl from Wang Zuxian who is also a Taiwanese, so how close you are to you."

After chatting again, Lin Qingxia went out.

Chen Qi stood in front of the window and watched her get into Zhong Chuhong's cool red sports car, and didn't know where to go to have fun.

He hesitated for a long time before he decided to give one of the protagonists to Lin Qingxia. The film cost $16.5 million and the box office was $45.46 million, which was not high. Its value lies in the fact that it is a milestone work of female films, with a far-reaching influence, and won the best original script for the Oscar.

Chen Qi no longer needs to use Oscars to prove it, because next year's Oscars will definitely be killed.

So after thinking about it, he might as well give Lin Qingxia a try and let her partner with an American actress to see what the effect is. As for the lily film with Wang Zuxian, he still has to wait.

Wang Zuxian’s acting skills are not as good as Xiaocui Siye!

…………

That night.

After a day of crazy with Zhong Chuhong, Lin Qingxia, who was a little tired, returned to her residence in Hong Kong.

After taking a shower, packing up, she started reading the script in a big towel. She first watched "Single Diary", and then threw it away, a pure brainless commercial film that fooled the audience. She picked up "The End of the Way" again, and then couldn't put it down.

The two heroines are housewives living in dull and trivial housework, and the other is an ordinary waiter working in a cafe. The two are good friends and go out together to relax. Outside a bar, the housewife was harassed by perverts, and even nearly raped and shot by her best friend.

The two panicked were afraid of the police's pursuit, and a good trip turned into a road to escape...

"What a bold subject!"

Lin Qingxia's eyes lit up when she saw it, and she was sleepy even though it was early morning.

She is a female literary girl at heart. She films commercial films to make money or is forced to do so. At that time, celebrities often don’t do anything without filming, and if they don’t, they will use guns to hit their heads.

So she didn't like "Single Diary" and loved "The End of the Road". In the end, she even took a pen to write her feelings on the script while reading it.

Before I knew it, it was all night and it was dawn.

She threw the pen and poured it on the bed and hummed: "I am a world-class screenwriter. I'm so bullying, but the script is so good... Oh, I'm so under a lot of pressure! I don't know who I'll play with?"

………………………………………

"Rain Man" and "Who Framed Roger the Rabbit" were released in June and ended in August. The former took advantage of the east wind of Kimpike and the box office was better than before, breaking the 200 million mark.

The latter has not changed much, and it fell to the box office of 5.6 billion.

And they also have extensive overseas distributions.

According to the plan, after "Rain Man", it should be the first to take over "I Know What You Doed Last Summer". Chen Qi asked for money first, but Colombia had to hit it in batches and made the first move first.

Otherwise, Chen Qi would really not give him a copy.

Colombia's poor performance does not mean that there is no cash. Its total investment and total returns are not proportional to the total losses. For example, its TV program business is very good and it makes money, but the movies are too loss.

Compared with these, what shocked Hollywood the most was that the screenwriter strike was finally over.

Los Angeles, Screenwriters Union Headquarters.

The press reception hall was crowded with people, and the chairman of the East-West Screenwriter Union and the head of the producer alliance attended the meeting. Under the crackling flash, the latest agreement was signed in public.

include:

Increase the basic salary of screenwriters, increase the share of TV replays, improve the welfare guarantee of screenwriters, etc.

What is most concerned about is naturally the share of videotapes. The screenwriter union initially demanded was 5%, and the final standard was 3%, that is, the screenwriter could get a share of 3% of the videotape income.

From 2007 to 2008, the screenwriter went on strike again, and only then did he raise the share of DVD and streaming media by 5%!

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

Amidst the applause, the two sides signed the agreement, shook hands in a seemingly friendly manner, and said enthusiastic nonsense.

"Although the process was a bit tortuous, we finally reached an agreement that the screenwriter union and the film and television companies have always been in a mutually promoting relationship. We will continue to promote the development of the film and television industry together..."

At this point, the general strike, which totaled 155 days, ended!

Hollywood roughly estimates that it lost at least $500 million, which is a loss of both sides. However, there was a Chinese who was involved in it, stabilizing his own status and seeking benefits.

"We really need a powerful outsider, otherwise they will be more aggressive and will strike once a few years, and we can't stand it!"

"But I would rather hope he is French than he is Chinese!"

"Maybe we can develop our own talents?"

"That's too difficult and it's time-consuming. At least that Chinese person is very wise. He doesn't get involved in movie distribution and videotapes are also working with us. This will make a profit."

"There are few guys like him who have strong production capabilities. "Rain Man" has exceeded 200 million!"

After all, Hollywood giants are still awake to how necessary Chen Qi's existence is.

At the same time, they also began to experiment with decoupling from trade unions. For example, in the 1980s, 95% of screenwriters' positions in the film and television industry were occupied by trade union members, and in later generations, this proportion dropped to 55%.

Hollywood companies are consciously and slowly cultivating screenwriters outside the union.

However, other positions are not possible, especially key positions such as photography, lighting, food, and truck drivers, and they have to honestly cooperate with the trade union.

…………

The summer vacation in the United States is from May to September, which is quite long. The first Monday in September is Labor Day in the United States, with a day off, plus Saturday and Sunday, there is a three-day holiday.

This is also the last day of the summer season.

In late August, "I Know What You Do Last Summer" is about to be released, so I'll get another vote.

Chen Qi has something to do in Hong Kong, so it is left to Jiang Zhiqiang for handling.
Chapter completed!
