Barber personally experienced Yang Ming's amazing talent in screenwriting, but he didn't know much about Yang Ming's talent in music. He only heard about it and knew that Yang Ming had some very classic English songs.

Moreover, Yang Ming is also the winner of the Academy Award for Best Film Score, and it’s a double-yolked egg, with two film scores winning at the same time.

But music and pop songs are completely different things.

Although he was worried about Yang Ming's solo concerts in the United States and Europe, seeing Liu Xinsheng's unusually confident look, he felt moved and prepared to go back and listen carefully to Yang Ming's music.

Compared to Barber's worries, Liu Xinsheng is full of confidence in Yang Ming, even more confident than whether Yang Ming's movie will be a hit.

If there is anyone in the world who understands Yang Ming's talent in music better, Liu Xinsheng patted his chest and said that it is him. There is absolutely no other person who understands Yang Ming's terrifying talent in music better than him.

Therefore, not only was he not worried about Yang Ming's solo concert in the West, he was even extremely looking forward to it.

After the three of them chatted about the schedule of Yang Ming's concert for a while, the topic turned to Hollywood, especially the development plan of Oriental DreamWorks' Hollywood branch.

Connection Film Company was wholly acquired by Oriental DreamWorks. This film company can only be regarded as a third-tier film company in Hollywood. It does not have many classic films that it can produce, and its copyright library does not have the film rights that other film companies are interested in.

During the time when Barber took over the company, he reorganized and reorganized all aspects of the company's business and put in his old subordinates who had been poached from Pan American Entertainment. At the same time, he also personally reviewed the filming that the company had planned to carry out.

plan.

Originally, all the filming plans of the Film Company were stopped by Yang Ming, but he was too busy and couldn't spare the time, so he had to leave all these matters to Barber and hurried back to China.

After Barber carefully looked at all the movie shooting plans that were stopped by Yang Ming, he was secretly glad that Yang Ming stopped them in time.

He looked down upon these movie shooting plans.

If these movie shooting plans were still executed by the previous C-line Film Company, there wouldn't be much of a problem, but for the current Oriental DreamWorks, that won't work.

Because these movie shooting plans are not in line with Oriental DreamWorks' positioning in Hollywood.

Barber himself would not allow these plans, which would only turn out to be third-rate movies to barely break even, to be implemented in his hands. He couldn't afford to lose this person.

During this period of time, he used various channels and relationships to find some excellent scripts that fit the current conditions of Oriental DreamWorks.

But he searched around and couldn't find a suitable movie script for Eastern Dream.

Good movie scripts would either go to big film companies or be held in the hands of other film companies and it would be impossible to let them go; bad scripts, even those that could make a small profit, he would not despise.

Maybe someone will say that Barber is not Goldfinger? Does he often dig up some under-the-radar movies?

But you must know that the current reputation and popularity of Oriental DreamWorks in Hollywood are not as good as those of Pan American Entertainment, which he previously controlled. The two are currently not on the same level at all.

"Barber, do you have any shooting plans over there now?" Yang Ming asked.

Listening to Barber's narration of his recent work report, Yang Ming not only asked with concern that he had been too busy a while ago and had hurried back to China before he had time to sort out the shooting plan there.

"Not yet. I've already asked someone to look for it. I have to say that the copyright resources in the hands of C-line Films are too few. There is basically nothing worthy of our money to shoot now. Those old copyright resources cannot afford our

Request." Barber shook his head and said solemnly.

Yang Ming slowly thought about Barber's words in his mind and understood what he meant. Although Barber's requirements were a bit too harsh, they were more in line with his taste.

Either don’t do it, or do it well if you want to do it.

Oriental DreamWorks is not the previous online movie, and its goal is just to make ends meet. In his mind, Oriental DreamWorks is destined to compete with those giants in the future to seize the movie market from them. In this case, how could he possibly

You will relax your requirements on yourself!

But the current situation of Oriental DreamWorks in Hollywood is too tricky for Barber. Although the several scripts he used to attract Barber are all classic movie scripts, each of them wants to be filmed.

Movies take a lot of time.

And according to the plan, those scripts need to gain a certain popularity through comics or foreshadowing, and only after they have a certain audience base can they be made into movies and released on the screen.

Far water cannot quench near thirst!

Yang Ming calmly thought about Barber's current situation in Hollywood. With Barber's past reputation in Hollywood, life is indeed not easy now.

But I will definitely devote myself to the filming of "2012" in the next few days, and I can't help Barber much. Otherwise, he can find a few popular commercial movies from his previous life and make Oriental DreamWorks first.

The scene was propped up.

But he is really incompetent.

"Can you find a director suitable for making gunfight movies?" Yang Ming thought of something and said thoughtfully, "Or someone who is good at making police and gangster movies!"

"Huh?" Barber was stunned for a moment, then recovered. He frowned and thought for a while, then said slowly: "After Lianxian was acquired by the company, I took a look at the directors who often cooperated with the company. There are several directors.

I have made shootout films for the company, but they were all average, but with my reputation, I can still find better directors, but that depends on the quality of the script."

Having said this, Barber suddenly understood what Yang Ming meant.

Yang Ming nodded and said, "I have an idea here. Let me share it with you. If possible, it should be no problem to make it into a series."

A series?

Both Barber and Liu Xinsheng looked up at Yang Ming with surprise. In the film industry, excellent movie scripts are relatively rare, especially movies that can be made into a series, which are even rarer.

After all, as long as the first part is successful and the subsequent sequels don't have too many problems, you can just sit there and make money in a very comfortable way.

Yang Ming didn't notice the surprise of Barber and Liu Xinsheng, and then he started talking about his idea.

Detective John came to Los Angeles from New York to meet his wife Holly, who had been separated for half a year. He was invited to attend a Christmas party held on the 30th floor of a building. However, a group of gangsters broke into the building's vault and stole the money.

They blocked the building and took the people attending the party hostage. John managed to escape and launched a fierce struggle with the gangsters alone.

Originally, when Barber heard about Yang Ming, a police detective named John, he didn't feel anything special, and even Dian didn't take it seriously.

Why?

Because in Hollywood, police and gangster movies have been poorly made for a long time, and even several police and gangster movies are released every year, with only mediocre box office results. It can be said that from the moment the movie was born, the story of police and thieves began to be played out in movies.

After so many years of non-stop filming, it can be said that the routine of police and gangster movies is already dead.

But as Yang Ming slowly began to narrate the next plot, Barber became more and more interested as he listened, because he felt that this was a somewhat unique police film.

Especially when he heard that Yang Ming's setting for the movie was an action movie in which a group of thugs occupy a small space, and the police, as ordinary heroes, fight with bare hands, his eyes lit up, and he became more and more interested the more he listened.

When Barbour heard John calling for help using the fire alarm and radio, but failed, he threw the body of a gangster from the upstairs and hit the black police officer Powell who came to patrol.

In the car, the alarm is considered successful.

He himself couldn't help but booed slightly, feeling happy that John had successfully called the police.

Next, Barber was completely attracted by the idea of ​​​​this police film produced by Yang Ming, and he couldn't help but become addicted to it. Even he didn't notice it.

After half an hour, when Yang Ming stopped talking, Barber suddenly realized that the script was over.

He immediately flashed his eyes and said excitedly: "oo, roo! Yang, your idea of ​​a police and gangster shootout movie is really great, especially in your setting, where the police and gangsters are confined to a small space.

, it can be said that this idea is really great, I can say that this idea has never appeared in Hollywood!"

Yang Ming smiled and joked that this movie was the signature scene that established Bruce Willis as a super action star in his previous life. It also created a new model of action movies in which a group of thugs occupy a small space and ordinary heroes fight with bare hands.

However, he still reminded Barber: "To make this movie, the director must use highly professional action film processing skills, especially for the creation of tense atmosphere and explosion effects, which must be able to make the audience sweat.

Stimulating effect.”

After hearing Yang Ming's words, Barber said cheerfully: "Yang, don't worry, there is no other in Hollywood. Directors and actors will never be lacking. I will definitely find a suitable director for this great script."

.”

After Liu Xinsheng listened to Yang Ming's script, he couldn't help but said: "Mr. Ming, can this script be filmed in China?"

"No, no, Liu, don't compete with me for this script. I have to wait for this script to be cooked!" When Barber heard Liu Xinsheng's words, he couldn't help but uttered the last sentence in Chinese, which made Yang Ming and

Liu Xinsheng laughed heartily.

However, Yang Ming thought for a while and realized that China could also shoot another version. Then the two different versions might have unexpected effects.

Regarding Yang Ming's proposal, Barber and Liu Xinsheng thought about it and had to admit that it was very marketable.

"Mr. Ming, what's the name of this movie?" Liu Xinsheng asked.

""Die Hard"" Yang Ming said softly.

"Yang, do you have any more ideas? You know that the company in Hollywood wants to quickly open up the situation, and this script alone is not enough." Barber asked casually.

Unexpectedly, Yang Ming frowned and thought for a while, then said: "It really does!"

Suddenly, both Barber and Liu Xinsheng were stunned.
Chapter completed!
