1149 [Buy Hollywood]

Wang Jie became famous.

Although there was a little misunderstanding, the final result was still great.

"Brother Jie, I'm sorry, I've caused you so much suffering and so much insults." Xia Tian said to Wang Jie embarrassedly.

"Ah God, don't say that, I didn't even take this into consideration." Wang Jie waved his hand.

Don’t say that he was scolded just because of misunderstandings, even if he really became a liar, he deserved to be scolded, which is better than him sleeping on the streets in Taiwan.

When he had no food to eat, he even took his daughter to eat the King of Kings. In order to make money, he worked as a painter, a dragon and tiger martial artist, and even jumped down from three floors, even giving up his life.

Since he can even take his life, what's the point of being scolded by a few words? Besides, Xia Tian has helped him a lot, so how could he blame others for some publicity mistakes?

"Well, that's good. In fact, if you have to survive in the entertainment industry, you have to endure all kinds of ups and downs. Didn't I also grow up with scolding?" Xia Tian smiled and comforted again.

"Yes, the Red Star of Shaw Brothers and Lin Dai were also praised and criticized by criticism. I have been mentally prepared for this." Wang Jie nodded again.

Back then, Lotte, Lin Dai and other Shaw Brothers actresses were very popular and were highly anticipated. When they went to Taiwan to promote, tens of thousands of people gathered at the airport to pick them up. The fanaticism was no less than the brainless fans of their previous lives. However, such a popular star finally chose to commit suicide amid criticism, which is regrettable.

"Yes." Xia Tian nodded, "Okay, let's not talk about these troubles. Let's accept media interviews together later. Brother Jie, you have insufficient experience in dealing with reporters. It is best to watch more and think less, so as not to take advantage of loopholes by the reporters."

Although he is the second richest man in Hong Kong now, with strong strength and great influence, he has not yet reached the point where he has one hand covered the sky. In fact, let alone him, even Li Jiacheng, there are media reporting on his negative news. Therefore, if Wang Jie makes a mistake in speaking and is caught by the media, it will inevitably be a little trouble.

"I understand, Ah God." Wang Jie quickly agreed when he heard what he said.

...

Xia Tian then took Wang Jie to the reception room to meet various media outlets.

The reason why he ended his vacation from Qiaozuizhou, a paradise, to return to the troubling Hong Kong was to help Wang Jie promote it.

"Mr. Xia is here!"

When the reporters saw Xia Tian, ​​they were all excited. That way, the hungry dog ​​was like seeing his owner, and his tail was shaken.

"Everyone, sit down!" Xia Tian nodded and smiled, "I'll introduce you to me. This is my good friend - Wang Jie!"

Wang Jie then waved to the reporters with a smile.

The reporters nodded perfunctorily, and their eyes were still focused on Xia Tian.

Seeing this, Wang Jie couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Xia Tian sent him an encouraging look, then pulled him to sit down, "Okay, let's start the interview. If you have any questions, please raise your hand to ask!"

"Mr. Xia, here" "Mr. Xia, here" When the reporters heard this, their eyes lit up, their hands were brushed up, and they shouted in their mouths.

"Lady first! This lady" Xia Tian pointed to a woman in yellow.

"Mr. Xia, is it true that the Hollywood Film Company invites you to film in the United States? So what's the progress? When will you set off?" The woman in yellow stood up excitedly in the envious and jealous eyes of everyone, and then asked Xia Tian with her mouth like a cannon.

Hearing her question, the reporters also held the pen in their hands tightly, listened with their ears, and prepared to record at any time. Because this question was also what they urgently wanted to know.

"Everyone, the topic of our interview today is 'Friendship between Brother Jie and I', and the questions we asked should also be limited to this range. I think you should all know this before coming, so don't break the rules." Xia Tian said unhappily.

The reporters were stunned, and then they asked softly.

"Mr. Xia, you will reveal a little bit. We are also happy for you, happy for you!"

"Mr. Xia, we finally met you so easily. Don't be too serious. Give us some news."

"Mr. Xia, before coming, the editor-in-chief told me that I must ask for some news, otherwise I will lose all my bonus this month."

After dealing with Xia Tian for a long time, everyone knows that he is a person who is soft but not hard. As long as he is willing to say something good, he will be able to be compatible.

"Oh, you guys." Xia Tian also knew that he had this problem and was weakened when asked. But there was nothing he could do, who made him a good person?

"Okay, let's just reveal a little. After saying that, you are not allowed to ask again." Xia Tian said.

"Okay, okay, okay!" When the reporters heard this, they all nodded like chickens pecking at the rice.

"Yes, recently several Hollywood film companies want to invite me to film." Xia Tian nodded.

"Wow" When the reporters heard this, they all became excited.

"The conditions are also very generous, with a maximum pay of 8 million US dollars and a minimum of 4 million US dollars." Xia Tian said again.

"Wow" When the reporters heard this, they all opened their mouths wide.

Eight million US dollars, that is 60 million Hong Kong dollars, and four million US dollars is 30 million. It’s so much money to make for a movie, it’s simply developed.

"But I didn't agree." Xia Tian said again.

"..." The reporters' expressions froze on their faces, like puppets, a little funny.

Wang Jie almost burst into laughter in this scene.

"Mr. Xia, why is this?" the reporters asked curiously.

That's eight million US dollars. Hong Kong directors are afraid that they won't make that much money even if they shoot a lifelong drama!

"I said it, just reveal a little. Don't ask any more." Xia Tian smiled slightly and said, "Okay, let's start the official interview."

"..." When the reporters heard this, they were speechless.

Xia Tian didn’t say it halfway through the talk and hid the most critical part.

Why did he refuse the invitation from Hollywood? Is he who has other conditions or doesn’t want to go to Hollywood at all? Everyone wants to know. But if he doesn’t say it, everyone can’t do anything about him.

After a while of embarrassment, the reporters began to formally interview the story between Xia Tian and Wang Jie.

How did the two meet, get along, how they separated, how they met again, when will Wang Jie's album be released, what songs did Xia Tian write for him... one by one, and the questions were very detailed.

Although Wang Jie's topic is not as good as the "Hollywood invitation", it is still good. Especially his identity as a "good guy in summer" has added a lot of attention to him.

Xia Tian and Wang Jie also responded one by one, and in the end they were all happy.

...

The next day, the interview between the two was reported by the media.

"Summer confirmed that I really received the Hollywood invitation!"

"The reason for rejecting the Hollywood invitation in summer is unknown!"

"Xia Wang Jiechang talks about brotherhood, and his new album focuses on the prodigal style."

After reading the report, the public was so surprised that they didn't know what to say.

The eight million US dollars in the film pay was not profitable in the summer. It was really too much money to burn it.

"Although eight million dollars is indeed a little less for him, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat. It's quite appropriate to make so much by filming two or three months of filming."

"Oh, it would be great if I could make so much money! More than 60 million Hong Kong dollars is enough to spend a lifetime."

"This is really rich and willful! He doesn't know how many people can't get the chance, but he doesn't know how to cherish it at all."

Hong Kong citizens were puzzled and regretful about Xia Tian’s actions and talked about it.

After learning about this news, the Hong Kong film industry also called Xia Tian to think about it again. After all, going to Hollywood to film is something that many people dream of. It is the pride of all Hong Kong filmmakers to have such an opportunity, and it is not a wise move to refuse it rashly.

"Ah Tian, ​​don't be stupid. You can finally go to Hollywood, why should you refuse?" Hong Jingbao called him and said, "The eight million US dollars in salary is no longer a shortage."

"I know, Brother Hong, I didn't reject them because of the pay." Xia Tian smiled.

"What else can it be because of?" Hong Jingbao was puzzled.

Generally speaking, there are only three reasons for the director to refuse invitations. One is that the pay is insufficient, the second is contractual constraints, and the third is personal grudges.

For example, he stayed in Jiahe and did not shoot movies for other companies because of the third reason, his personal grudge. When he was in a downturn, there was no filming, no one invited him, and even thought about changing careers to be a chef and selling food stalls.

Fortunately, Jiahe took him and paid him a salary so that he would not have no food to eat. Therefore, after he became popular, no matter how much money other companies spent to hire him, he did not agree.

But what kind of grudges can summer have with Hollywood film companies? He is his own boss and will not be bound by contracts. If that is the case, there is only a problem of pay.

But Xia Tian now said that it was not a matter of money, so could there be any other problems? He really couldn't figure it out.

"This is hard to understand in one sentence or two. In short, I have my conditions and told them all. They are also considering that if I can accept my conditions, I will cooperate with them. If I cannot agree, I will not cooperate with them." Xia Tian explained.

"Ah Tian, ​​are your conditions too harsh?" When Hong Jingbao heard this, he guessed that Xiatian might have raised some excessive conditions with Hollywood, so the other side did not agree, so the cooperation was stranded. "The first time cooperation, the conditions should not be too high. Back then, we worked with Warner Brothers to work hard to become actors, but when we were sharing the money, Warner was the majority."

"That's the condition I'm not going to become." Xia Tian smiled.

"But if this is the case, if someone doesn't agree, then you can't go to Hollywood. What a pity!" Hong Jingbao said regretfully when he heard this.

"It's okay. In a few years, when I make enough money, I will buy Hollywood directly." Xia Tian smiled.
