Chapter 675: Pretending to make people want to vomit blood (4,500 words!)(1/3)
The night in Hollywood is very fascinating.
Duncan sat on the 23rd floor of the Century Building, quietly looking into the distance.
The lights in the distance are brilliant and bright, accompanied by waves of gentle warm wind.
This is a beautiful city.
Breathtakingly beautiful!
The night breeze in October is neither cold nor hot and very comfortable.
Duncan lit a cigar and took a deep breath. He felt as if he had been blown by the evening breeze and felt extremely comfortable.
He showed a faint smile.
Hollywood!
I'm back!
This beautiful city will cheer for me soon.
It was just as crazy and noisy as it was five years ago, as well as the overwhelming screaming!
When he thought of this, he looked down at the script on the table next to him.
The name of the script is "Earth's Independence Day".
This is a science fiction movie, and Century Company has already begun formulating an investment budget of US$200 million and is waiting to build a crew.
Duncan has great expectations for this movie.
The previous "El Niño" earned him a box office of 620 million, becoming one of the four box office classics in Hollywood in the United States. With this "Independence Day", Duncan feels that he can get at least 800 million at the box office, even surpassing the United States.
It is very possible that the classic "Space Trek" will become the number one science fiction film in the United States.
As for, you mean "The Pianist on the Sea"?
Feel sorry.
Duncan never felt that "The Pianist on the Sea" was worthy of a breakthrough.
To him at this moment, Lu Yuan was just a coward who didn't even dare to respond to him.
What is there to care about in a movie made by a coward like this? What is there to be happy about if it goes beyond that?
Duncan shook his head.
Totally not serious.
At this time...
"Dong dong dong."
"Come in……"
"It's Director Fleming. What's wrong? Did you encounter any problems when setting up the crew?"
"No...it's not..." Fleming lowered his head slightly, seemed to glance at Duncan secretly, and then looked away.
"What's going on?" Duncan felt strange when he saw Fleming's hesitant tone.
"Mr. Duncan, you don't have a heart attack, right?" Then, Fleming looked at Duncan as if he had gathered his courage.
"What do you mean?" Duncan frowned and stared at Fleming.
The smile on his face disappeared instantly.
No matter what kind of director Fleming was, it was really impolite for him to ask himself if he had a heart disease as soon as he came in.
"No, no, no... I didn't mean it like that, I'm sorry, Mr. Duncan, I just..."
"Say! Don't worry, I don't have a heart disease!"
"That Chinese guy responded!"
"Responded? What did you respond to? Did you apologize to me or give in?" When Duncan heard this, he immediately became interested.
"..."
"Did you respond to some frivolous words?" Duncan showed another smile, and there was a little cruelty in the smile.
Lu Yuan is indeed somewhat talented. He must admit this. Generally, people with such talent are a bit arrogant.
Duncan saw a lot.
but……
The more frivolous you are, the greater the blow you will suffer next.
Just like the higher you climb, the more painful it will be if you fall!
Haha, if you suppress such a talented person, or even make him feel despair, then this feeling...
It really gives Duncan an indescribable sense of pleasure.
"That...that's a video..."
"video?"
"Yes...Mr. Duncan, please take a look."
"good."
"..." Fleming handed Duncan the video of Lu Yuan just released by Novi Media.
When he saw Duncan receiving the video, Fleming's expression gradually became a little uneasy.
Then...
Duncan played this video.
"Mr. Duncan... First of all, let me make it clear that I am not a coward..."
Lu Yuan spoke in English when recording the video.
Although Lu Yuan's English was just that, Duncan could still understand it completely.
So there are no language issues.
At first, the expression on Duncan's face was calm, and he still maintained his indifferent attitude, but then...
"I'm sorry...I accidentally broke your box office record. I didn't want to. I originally just wanted to make a movie casually, but who knows..."
"But you have to know that the person you are talking to now is a screenwriter, poet, writer, songwriter, director, actor, piano creator, game developer..."
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Duncan. Maybe after I have said so many things, you will think that I am arrogant, but in fact, I am a very humble person. Everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can search
Check my information, I'm really busy..."
"..."
"Bang!"
Duncan's face changed.
When he saw Lu Yuan say these words with a very sincere expression in the video, Duncan couldn't believe his ears!
This person!
hateful!
Fleming was so frightened that he slapped the table hard.
After filming, he continued to stare at the video while panting!
The video has come to an end, but...
"So, Mr. Duncan, this is the response you want... I'm sorry... I can't respond to you for too long. I have to make dinner. By the way, if you think I'm not busy enough, I can
To add, I am actually a chef. Hey, I am only 27 years old after the Chinese New Year. Mr. Duncan, you should understand that young people always have young people’s troubles... Ah, sorry... Did I mention my age again?
Did you? I forgot that you are an old man who is almost sixty years old. Sorry, sorry..."
The video ended with Lu Yuan smiling awkwardly, as if he had made a mistake inadvertently.
Duncan gently put down the computer with the video material.
He tried to stay calm.
but……
His increasingly flushed face and heavier breathing betrayed him.
It can be seen that he is not as calm as he appears!
"Mr. Duncan..."
"Director Fleming, I'm sorry, I need to be alone for a while..."
"Oh, then you..."
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm old and I've been through big winds and waves. How could anything happen?" Duncan laughed.
"Then...okay." Fleming glanced at Duncan cautiously again, then turned and walked out of the office.
To be continued...
