As long as the other party can create enough benefits for himself, let alone China, even in the Sahara Desert, Ryan will meet and talk with him in person.

The next day, Ryan came to the outdoor venue located in Yu Nu Spring, Hangzhou. The crew of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was filming a fight and landscape scene here. He met Ang Lee, whom he had never seen since the film was launched.

In fact, Ryan handed over the entire movie to Ang Lee. In addition to a small number of Jenkins Film supervisors and interns - those who have just entered the industry like Chen Jiazheng - the crew members were almost recruited by Ang Lee and Xu Ligong, and were basically Chinese.

When Ryan arrived, the crew was still busy filming. This could be regarded as a Hollywood tradition. If there weren't something extremely important, even if God came, he wouldn't take the initiative to interrupt the ongoing filming.

In front of the camera, several actors flew around with steel wire hanging on, posing in a very beautiful posture.

"Wow, it's so cool." Taylor held Ryan's hand and gradually opened her mouth wide. However, she had been playing big in the film company since she was a child. She knew that she could not make too much noise now, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Ryan, are they shooting science fiction films?"

"Dear, they are shooting martial arts films." Ryan also lowered his voice. It seems that after the movie was released, most viewers and media in North America would regard it as a science fiction film.

"Martial arts?" Taylor obviously didn't understand.

"It's a kind of action movie."

As soon as Ryan finished his explanation, Taylor seemed to remember something, "By the way, when I went to Sydney, I also saw Nicole and the others flying around with steel wires, but it was not so exaggerated."

She suddenly pointed to the back of the camera. There was a guy covered in pimples. "He was also on the set in Sydney at that time. Was he an action director?"

Following the little guy's hand, Ryan found that the man was Yuan Heping and nodded immediately.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the crew temporarily stopped filming, and Ang Lee came over, "Mr. Jenkins."

"Just call me Ryan." Ryan shook his hand.

"Okay, Ryan."

After all, if you want to develop in Hollywood in the future, Ang Lee understands that it will be no harm to establish a good relationship with Ryan. "Can we go over there to talk?"

He pointed to the temporary resting place next to him.

"Okay." Ryan nodded.

The temporary resting place of the crew is very good, just on the edge of a green bamboo forest. Although it is summer, the weather in Hangzhou is not particularly hot. Jade Girl Spring is a famous place to cool down, and the breeze that blows from time to time always brings a hint of coolness.

"Ryan, can I go and play by myself?" Taylor had the patience to sit in the bamboo chair and listened to him discussing work with Ang Lee.

"No tricks or treacherous."

Seeing Ryan nodding, the little guy left the place with curly hair, and the two bodyguards immediately followed.

"This is the best West Lake Longjing."

Under the gaze of several actors resting on the other side, Lee An filled Ryan with tea, "Although it is different from the black tea we are used to drinking, it has a unique flavor."

"Well... it's really different." Ryan put down the teacup and went straight to the topic. "Lee, I've seen the samples and plans you sent. To be honest, a production budget of ten million dollars is enough for this movie."

"Ryan, after coming here and seeing the scenery and Mr. Yuan's action design, I realized that under the original theme, the picture can be more beautiful, and the action fighting can be more elegant. I also plan to do some articles on the soundtrack. Tan Dun, who is living in the United States, has made some soundtracks. I plan to invite Yo-yo Ma to play."

This is just to make the movie better. Ang Lee understands that this is not enough. "If the movie's North American box office does not reach five times the production budget, I will automatically give up the pay and dividends."

Ryan was stunned for a moment. Obviously, he didn't expect that Ang Lee was so courageous. But I think so, if he didn't have courage, how could he dare to shoot "Brokeback Mountain" in his previous life after the Hulk's defeat.

How much was the investment in this movie in my previous life? Ryan frowned and had no impression.

He can remember that the films with the production budget are among the few, most of which are super blockbusters with overwhelming publicity, such as the "Titanic" and "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and the low-cost movies such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" only know that the box office in North America exceeded 100 million, and the global box office reached 200 million US dollars.

"How much investment is needed?" This is the focus of Ryan's concern.

"Six million dollars!"

After thinking about it, Ryan said, "I agree in principle, but Ms. Stewart needs to be considered, which will take about a while."

"As long as you get it in place before the post-production starts, you can." Ang Lee was very energetic. With enough funds, he had the confidence to win the Oscars.

When the project was launched, Ryan read the script. Although there were some changes in small details, the theme of the movie was like in previous lives. Ang Lee was a smart person and knew that pure martial arts films could not impress North American audiences and Oscar judges.

The Asian cloak and American art are the right choice.

This movie is also a co-production film. Jenkins Pictures has received a small part of Xu Ligong's investment. Otherwise, if it was simply produced by Jenkins Pictures, it is very likely that it will not be able to pass the review of the Oscars' best foreign language film in the future.

Ang Lee went to take a look at the movie again. After watching it for a while, Ryan saw an acquaintance standing not far away, and went over to say hello.

"Hi, Mr. Yuan, I didn't expect we would meet again." He said with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Jenkins." Yuan Heping squeezed for a long time before showing a smile.

Ryan didn't mind either. After all, if you do too much poaching, it is normal to be held revenge on others.

After the crew started to rest again, Ryan found Taylor. The little guy sat quietly on a chair, watching the makeup artist taking care of the headdress for a young actress, and his eyes were blinking and seemed very interested.

"Dear, what are you doing?" Ryan sat in the chair next to her.

"Learn Chinese hairstyles." Taylor pulled his golden curly hair, "Ryan, during the school anniversary, would it cause a sensation if I changed to such a hairstyle?"

"It's not for you." Ryan shook his head.

Blonde hair and blue eyes paired with pure Chinese hairstyles are simply inappropriate.

Taylor wrinkled his nose, stood up and asked, "Have you finished your work?"

"Hmm~"

"Okay, we can go and have a trip."

The weather is not suitable for going too far. Ryan and his friends just walked around the Jade Girl Spring. These scenery was full of exotic style in the eyes of Taylor, George and others, but he thought it was just ordinary.

"According to legend, Su Dongpo..."

In a small shop selling tourist souvenirs, Chen Jiazheng was explaining the origin of a souvenir to Ryan and Taylor. "Su Dongpo is a very famous poet in ancient China. He likes the spring water of Jade Girl Spring very much. He sends people to fetch water every day, but is afraid that people will be lazy and get the water off the bag. He specially made marks with bamboo and handed them to the monks in the temple as certificates for water withdrawal. Later generations called it the 'water adjustment talisman'."

"Is that just this?" Taylor flipped through the bamboo tube in his hand, then returned it with interest, pointed to a green bamboo and asked, "What is that? Can bamboo be sold in the store?"

"That's the bamboo flute, a traditional Chinese musical instrument."

When Ryan talked about the instrument, Taylor's eyes immediately lit up and he said to Chen Jiazheng, "Chen, can the boss bring it over and take a look?"

The green bamboo flute quickly took it to her hand. Taylor looked it up and down carefully, scratching the curly hair on his head, "Ryan, how do you play this?"

"I'll try it."

Although it was the first time that the bamboo flute was used, Ryan had simply learned the flute when he was in London. Without much effort, he played a short section of the Brandenburg Concerto.

“Choose it!”

In addition to the bamboo flute, Taylor also specially selected a few other things, "Dad, mom, Austin, tomboy, little fat girl, and Nicole..."

Then, she stopped Ryan who wanted to pay, "I'll pay myself!"

"You have money?" Ryan was curious.

Taylor wrinkled his nose and took out a small wallet from the bag that was slanted, with a few green US dollars.

"I like the pocket money," she explained, "this is a gift I gave to my friends, of course I have to buy it with my money."

Fortunately, there are probably foreigners here often, and the boss does not refuse US dollars.

"Ryan, it seems that your influence is not as great as I thought."

While the few people were resting in a small pavilion, watching the tourists coming and going, Taylor sucked the juice hard and muttered, "After so long, no one knows you."

After all, it is not the future. Hollywood stars are far from being in the mood for great success. Ryan has changed his style that is completely different from Jack Dawson, with shoulder-length black hair and large sunglasses on his nose, which are the best disguise.

"It's relatively more important to be closed here." Chen Jiazheng was speaking, "especially the media and entertainment industry."

"You are going to join the WTO, that's the challenge the film industry has to face?" Ryan remembered what he and other Hollywood companies are doing, "of course it is also an opportunity for change."

"I heard that the negotiations have made significant progress." Chen Jiazheng nodded.

"Jenkins Pictures is going to speed up its development here."

Hearing Ryan's words, Chen Jiazheng was somewhat complicated. He knew that his classmate and friend had always been salivating at the market here.

Moreover, the commercial production produced by Jenkins Pictures is indeed excellent. Such movies are definitely not something that domestic movies can compete with.
