Chapter 1865 Cultural Differences

In the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai flew to Los Angeles to prepare to shoot Forrest Gump.

I don't know how the news was leaked, Xiao Yunhai was blocked by hundreds of media reporters as soon as he came out of the airport. TV station reporters, entertainment reporters, and financial reporters all joined the battle, making Xiao Yunhai tireless.

After answering a few questions, Xiao Yunhai, with the help of his bodyguards, passed through the crowd of reporters and got into Raul's car.

"Raul, who spread the news about my coming to Los Angeles?" Xiao Yunhai asked.

Raul said: "I guess it's Los Angeles or New York airport. These reporters came here in a hurry and didn't know it before. Mr. Xiao, you really cheated $4.5 trillion from the Bessie family. "

When Xiao Yunhai heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "You're calling it a misnomer. What is deceiving me, that is selling. If the Bessie family is really deceived, can they let me go? Stop joking. "

But the next phone call slapped Xiao Yunhai's face.

"Mr. Xiao, you are such a bastard, and I, Vanessa, have been deceived by you again."

Vanessa's voice was so loud that it almost deafened Xiao Yunhai's ears.

Apparently, Raul next to him heard Vanessa's words, and burst out laughing.

Xiao Yunhai glared at him fiercely, and said helplessly: "Miss Vanessa, our cooperation is very pleasant. I made money, and your Bessie family got the shares of Citi and P. This is a win-win situation. What is cheating? That word is too inaccurate."

Vanessa Bessie angrily said, "You team up with Apollo and use Li Jiazhi to trick me. Mr. Xiao, you really deserve to be the best actor in the world."

Xiao Yunhai said: "You misunderstood. I"

"I didn't misunderstand." Vanessa Bessie said coldly: "When Fu Luoda first told me, I didn't believe it, so I specially asked people to investigate the financial movements of the Anderson family. Recently, they simply did not believe it. There is no big move, let alone a $3.2 trillion acquisition. Mr. Xiao, I regard you as a friend, but you use me every time. First, you took away more than 9,000 employees from Stellroth. Employee, then used that batch of gold to defraud us of more than 1.6 trillion US dollars and trillions of shares, and now you have defrauded us of 4.5 trillion US dollars of capital flow through Apollo. I know you. The most unfortunate thing in my life, I will never forgive you, you big bastard. You."

After Vanessa Bessie vented fiercely on the phone, she hung up the phone without waiting for Xiao Yunhai to answer.

Xiao Yunhai looked at the phone,

Said: "Am I so bad?"

Turning his head to look at Raul, who was about to be unable to hold back, Xiao Yunhai said angrily, "You heard it all, just laugh if you want to."

"Hahaha."

Raul snorted and laughed.

He knew that Xiao Yunhai never cared about such details and was a boss who could make jokes, so Raul had no scruples.

After laughing for a while, Raul said, "Boss, this is the worst scolding I've ever heard of you. It seems that you have completely offended Miss Vanessa."

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "Do you think I'm really sorry for her?"

Raul shook his head and said, "Of course not. Mr. Xiao, you and Vanessa are enemies rather than friends, and you are even more rivals with the Bessie family. There is nothing to be sorry for. If you are weak, I am afraid that you are now scolding the other party. It's you."

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "You are right. The Bessie family has hired someone to kill me, can't I use some means? Don't worry about these messy things. How is the translation work of the Twelve Citizens?"

So far, Twelve Citizens have received 4.2 billion download fees in China, which is much better than those regular movies.

During the few days Xiao Yunhai stayed in New York, the Twelve Citizens had already expanded to other parts of Asia, and received almost 2.8 billion.

These 2.8 billion were obtained from the Yunqing mobile phone video app, and the 12 citizens did not enter the video stations of other countries.

If it wasn't for the agreement with Xianyue Video before, Xiao Yunhai would not have put the movie there either.

Before coming to the United States, Xiao Yunhai sent the Twelve Citizens' films and asked Raul to find some people to translate them properly.

Unlike the Xianxia movie, the translation of the lines of the Twelve Citizens is not difficult, so Xiao Yunhai gave it to Raul with great confidence.

Raul said: "Mr. Xiao, the Twelve Citizens have already been completed. It's just"

Xiao Yunhai saw his expression of hesitating to speak, and said, "What is there to say, there is no need to hesitate."

Raul said sternly: "Mr. Xiao, I don't think this film is suitable for screening in Europe and the United States. Many of the values ​​in it are a bit out of tune with those of European and American fans."

Raul is right, the family and social concepts inherited from China's 5,000-year-old culture are almost 108,000 miles away from those in Europe and America.

In the play, the taxi driver played by Wang Guoan was heartbroken because of what his son did, but in Europe and the United States, children are adults when they are 18 years old. Too much control, and even violates the child's sexual rights.

Another example is the problem of the real estate boss and the female college student, which may be viewed differently in China, but is normal in the United States. Not to mention the difference of twenty years, there are many people who are more than fifty years old.

Xiao Yunhai was confident that he would turn the 3 billion Huaxia currency box office into 3 billion US dollars, which is obviously too optimistic. However, the Asian side has reached seven billion, and it is not far from this goal.

Xiao Yunhai said: "I have thought about this issue for a long time. If it is really inappropriate, I can download it once for one dollar, and let European and American movie fans understand Chinese culture."

Raul said: "Mr. Xiao, have you ever thought about changing it? The Marvel editorial department said that your movie idea is very good, and the actors in it have performed exceptionally well, and their acting skills are textbook-level. Change it into a movie suitable for European and American fans to watch."

Thinking of the Twelve Angry Men in the previous life, Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Alright. I will let people send the master film before editing, and they can change it as they want. Just when it is released, the original version should also be passed on. Go up, it's free."

Raul nodded and said, "Okay, I see."

The two talked, and soon came to the headquarters of Marvel Comics.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Yunhai saw Hollywood actor David Hartnett standing at the door at a glance.

The two hugged and Xiao Yunhai said, "David, how are you ready? This movie can be said to be basically your one-man show."

David Hartnett said: "I can't wait."

Raul said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, the set of Forrest Gump was fully prepared a week ago. Mr. Hartnett helped a lot, and he also rejected several plays."

Xiao Yunhai nodded, and while walking, he said:

: "It seems that you really like this character."

David Hartnett said: "Yes. After reading this script, I have a hunch that Forrest Gump is likely to become an iconic figure in America."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "The most important thing for an actor is self-confidence. Only self-confidence can form a strong aura and allow oneself to be infinitely close to the characters in the play. David, Forrest Gump is a very, very attractive character. If To be able to perform perfectly, as you said, he will definitely become an iconic character. From now on, you have to enter the world of Forrest Gump, and try to use his way when thinking about problems, every minute and every second Don't leave the clock. Except for acting, don't let anything from the outside interfere with you. If you can do it, then I can tell you clearly that Forrest Gump will make you the best actor in the entire history of the movie. No one."

In the previous life, Forrest Gump was synonymous with American movies, whether in Europe, America or China.

Clicking on the rankings of those video stations, Forrest Gump is definitely ranked in the top three in terms of praise. He won almost all the Oscars that year. Xiao Yunhai hopes to keep improving and make it even better than his previous life. As for the box office, Xiao Yunhai didn't care at all.

Of course, with the fame of himself and David, even if a ticket of ten dollars is estimated, it should not be difficult to break through five billion dollars.

David Hannett nodded and said, "Mr. Xiao, no, director, I will do my best to interpret this role perfectly."

Xiao Yunhai patted his shoulder and said, "I trust you."
