Chapter 482 I invested 12 million!(1/2)
(Four thousand words of big seal are sent! Huh!)
Hollywood is a place full of psychedelic hope, but it is also a desperate world.
Every year, countless young people who think they are very talented come here to pursue their dreams, and then every year, countless young people will lose their way and quit the Hollywood stage sadly.
"Sorry, Pete, if you can't get any investment, then I choose to withdraw from the movie "Night Blood". I also choose to withdraw from your Romon Company. You haven't paid my salary for three months!"
"Even, didn't you say that you would make this movie even if you didn't make money? And now is a critical period for our company, and you can't leave!"
"Not making money? Haha, Pete, if you were not a classmate in our university and your script still has some potential, I wouldn't have agreed to act in your movie. I regret it now. I ask you, how much investment has your "Night Bloodline" been now?"
"I……"
"It's only more than 100,000, right? And more than 100,000 is the money you have to start a company and piece it up to people? You still want to make movies for more than 100,000? What international jokes are you making?" Alvin looked at Pitt and sighed deeply. "Peter, forget it, isn't it good for you to go to other film and television companies honestly now? You must start a company and be a director, but the key is, who will pay attention to you? Who do you think you are? Are you God?"
"I... Alvin, I hope you can hold on for a while, okay?"
"Peter, tomorrow, tomorrow morning, if you don't get another $3 million investment, I will withdraw from your company immediately... and I hope you can pay my salary before I leave, otherwise I will sue you for defaulting on employee wages!"
“…”
Pete looked at Alvin leaving the remote cabin with a hint of gray eyes.
Before graduation, he was ambitious to make a career in Hollywood. After graduation, he did plan a lot of things, such as perfecting the script of "Night Bloodline" that he had written for nearly three years, opening Romon Film Company, and recruiting a group of media company employees who could barely be considered professional...
However, after five years of graduation, the imagined outbreak has not arrived. Instead, the number of employees has decreased day by day, and the company has become more and more difficult.
Apart from some advertising planning businesses, there is no other business in the company, let alone making movies.
Hollywood is indeed a crazy place, it can make you famous overnight and it can also make you bankrupt overnight.
Pete knew he was going bankrupt.
Peter's total possession is only about 500,000 yuan. 500,000 yuan is a sky-high price for a college student who has just left the society, but it is a bit unsatisfactory to make the original funds for Hollywood to make their debut.
What can I do if I have a half hundred thousand?
Especially in a so-called film and television company that cannot even make a movie, what can he do?
Make a movie?
What a joke.
As night slowly fell, Pete locked the door and looked at the dim lights of the bar in the distance. From time to time, there were bursts of excited shouts. This was indeed a world full of hope.
But Peter felt desperate!
"I will go out and invest again. I will definitely shoot "Night Bloodline" and I will definitely!" Peter gritted his teeth.
In fact, Peter also thought of handing the script to some big companies and selling it. In this way, his Romon company could last for a few days without going bankrupt, but the reality was quite cruel and he slapped him hard.
"Night Bloodline" is very good in Pitt's opinion. As long as it is shot, it will definitely have the potential to be popular, but it is worthless to others.
How many scripts do these large film companies receive in a year?
Will people care about you, Pitt, who is not famous? Will people care about whether you are "Night Blood" or "Night Player"?
This is reality!
Yes, Chilulu's reality.
When he came to the bustling streets of Hollywood, Pete held the script and continued to find the stars he knew and famous, or seemed like rich suckers. Unfortunately, Pete was finally disappointed after wandering around.
There may be suckers in Hollywood, but when Pitt looks like this, she will have a little bit of a dick. She doesn't have suckers and will listen to what investment and movies Pitt talks about.
At this moment, he felt that his Romon Film Company was a useless person.
Apply for a company to go bankrupt?
After all, the company has invested countless efforts to buy countless shooting equipment, and these shooting equipment are brand new. If it applies to go bankrupt, it will basically lose all its money, which is a pity.
But, if he doesn't apply for bankruptcy, how long can he last? It lasts for three or four days at most, when the landlord comes again to ask about the rent...
OK, if you go bankrupt, you go bankrupt.
How great would it be if there was a sucker who could like my script and buy my company by the way.
He was like a little match girl in a fairy tale, very sad.
But, where is it?
Just as Pete was about to give up, he suddenly saw a young man sitting next to the fountain in the middle of the street holding an English book reading.
Yes, it's a young man!
The Chinese, who is about 25 or 26 years old, wears a pair of black-framed glasses and a hat, and looks like a nerdy person.
Of course, Pitt usually doesn't care about this nerd, but at this moment, Pitt can tell at a glance that this nerd is very rich or too rich.
Nonsense, the clothes worn by this nerd are the latest styles that are popular in Benny Road this year!
Pete accidentally checked the price of this dress online, and a coat alone costs about 300,000 US dollars...
It’s not important to have more than 300,000 yuan. What’s important is that this dress is a limited edition, and only one thousand pieces are limited to the world!
Then when Pete got closer, Pete suddenly saw the watch in the young man's hand.
This watch is the Swiss luxury watch KH series.
The name KH may not have been heard by ordinary people at all, but Pete accidentally heard it from an upper-class party.
Every watch in KH Company is a limited edition, and each watch is worth a small building in Los Angeles...
After five years of tragedy in Hollywood, Pi was particularly unaware of it, but he learned how to look at people...
A rich man, a sucker, is so fooling!
Pete had this idea instantly.
Pitt's heart twitched, trembling, and even felt a little stressed!
Pete breathed a long sigh!
He was very glad that he learned Chinese when he was in college and did a good job. His tutor praised him for his talent in language.
He plans to use the knowledge he has learned in the past five years to fool the Chinese. Even if he fails in the end, it doesn't matter if he is called the police and goes to jail.
He is really at a dead end!
He can only fight one thing, what if he succeeds?

After Chu Qing finished filming today's "Insomnia" mission, he found a place in Los Angeles with a pretty good environment and took out his English book and started learning it.
It’s really a fucking thing to know how to speak English in Hollywood. Just like I’m a mute, I look very helpless.
It’s casual, Chu Qing learned from his mistakes and must learn English.
"Hello..." At this moment, Chu Qing heard a very crappy Chinese voice sound next to him.
Chu Qing looked up and saw a tall American young man.
"Hello." Chu Qing was a little surprised. He didn't know this American young man.
Did you come here to ask for directions?
I don't know the way if I ask for it.
"I'll introduce myself. I'm the boss of Romon Film Company. Pete, this is my business card..." Pete tried hard to speak Chinese language that he thought was very professional and smooth, and respectfully handed his business card to Chu Qing. Of course, this looked very much like an insurance salesman, although Pete himself did not think so.
"Oh..." Chu Qing put down the book and took the business card with both hands, and took a serious look.
The business card is beautiful.
It looks quite tall.
Well, to be honest, he can only understand a few words on the business card. Apart from a few words, Chu Qing didn't know what the sentence written on the business card meant.
"Hello, is there anything I can help you?"
However, although I don’t understand the meaning of business cards, Chu Qing still showed an expression and smile that I could understand.
There is a chance!
After seeing Chu Qing's expression, Peter suddenly felt excited!
"That's right. I'm preparing for a movie now. The name of this movie is "Night Bloodline". Well, this is my script..." Peter put together a copy of the script of "Night Bloodline" and handed it to Chu Qing.
"..." Chu Qing looked at the dense English letters on the script and was stunned.
What's this?
You know that I am not very good at English now, so you show me this. What do you mean?
"Oh, sorry, I got the wrong one, it was this script."
After looking at Chu Qing's confused expression, Peter suddenly remembered that this rich sucker was not very proficient in English. He quickly took out another script that was almost yellowed from his pocket.
Thank goodness, I'm prepared...
In fact, it is not just Chinese scripts, but also scripts in at least three languages.
Well, there is plenty of preparation.
To be continued...
