"Boring …" After hearing Lin Hao reveal James' identity, Hong Dali disdainfully twitched his mouth. "What has that got to do with me? Although I'm planning to make a few movies, it's purely for fun. I'm not really thinking of going to Hollywood to develop my career. "
"This …" Lin Hao was a little depressed. After thinking for a while, he said, "Then, Young Master, you can put it this way. One more friend means one more path. Think about it, in the future, what if you feel that movies are fun and really want to open up the market? As long as James says so, your movies will be able to enter Hollywood in the future. That's all box office! "
He wasn't being alarmist. This James was indeed a real famous director. He had made a few blockbuster movies and was very influential in Hollywood.
If Heavenly State's movies wanted to be screened in Merika, it was just a matter of a word from James.
Of course, if James said that this movie was not good, then it was basically impossible for it to enter Hollywood.
"It doesn't matter." Hong Dali nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders. Anyway, he really wasn't thinking of going to Hollywood to develop his career. He had money and people. He wasn't like Liang Yifeng who flew all over the world to chase after girls. He made movies just for fun, and whether he made it or not was another matter. Hence, he naturally didn't care much about this James.
So what if you're awesome over there? You earn money and don't let me spend it. I can't beg you either. Why should I lower myself and say good things to you?
However, the problem was that he was brought here by Lin Hao. As the saying goes, if one doesn't give the monk face, one has to give the Buddha face. Hong Dali could ignore James, but he couldn't not give Lin Hao any face. He instantly nodded and said, "Alright, I'll talk to him. Hmm, I forgot to ask, what did he come to find me for? To get investments from me? "That's good. I'm just afraid that I'll spend money slowly …
"Well, he seems to be planning to get you to invest in him. But I don't know how. I didn't ask for the details." Lin Hao saw that Hong Dali's tone had softened, and he was finally relieved.
"Oh, I'll go and ask." Hong Dali instantly walked up and smiled as he asked, "It's Mr. James, right? Then, why did you come to find me today?" The translator hurriedly conveyed Hong Dali's words.
"…% ¥…&& *&…" James said.
The translator said at the same time, "Mr. James said that Mr. Lin must have already told you his identity. He came today to borrow the alligator snapping turtle to shoot his new film. Of course, you won't be borrowing it for free. You can consider it as 10% of your shares. "
F * ck me! He was actually here for this? Don't you know what our Big Turtle represents?
Borrow more? You want to borrow a yellow-haired monkey just because you say so? Ten percent shares? Do you think I'm stupid?
Hong Dali didn't even think about it and directly shook his head. "No!"
"This …" Hearing Hong Dali's rejection, the translator was a little depressed. He didn't know how to reply to this message. After holding it in for a long time, he finally translated it to James in English.
“WHY？！” This time, Hong Dali understood what James said. Of course, that was only limited to this one word. The rest of the words were still gibberish to him. "% ¥% ¥# # * (& &) *) *) (* — —) (("
"What kind of sh * t is this fellow talking about?" Hong Dali tilted his head and looked strangely at the translator.
"Uh …" The translator felt that this was the most difficult thing to translate ever since he started working as James's translator. But out of professional ethics, the translator still chose to tell the truth. "Mr. James said that the alligator snapping turtle only grew a little bigger. Our film cost 22 million US dollars. It's a big production in history. 10% of the shares is equivalent to more than 2 million yuan. This is money falling from the sky. If you don't agree, Mr. Hong, he will express his doubts about your … IQ."
Indeed, from James's point of view, it was indeed like money falling from the sky to get 10% of the shares just by shooting a few scenes.
If it was some other animal, Hong Dali would agree. There was no harm in it anyway. It was just shooting for fun, it didn't matter.
But if it was Big Turtle, he definitely wouldn't agree.
What kind of image did Big Turtle have in China now? China's divine beast, the Black Tortoise! A godly creature like a totem! It was fine if he played with it when he was free. After all, he was the one who helped it turn over the land. But Merika wanted to use it to shoot a movie? Two million? Not even 20 million!
Once he really did that, it would mean that Big Turtle would easily fall from its pedestal. By then, it would definitely not be worth it!
Doubting my IQ? If I borrowed it, there would be a problem with my IQ!
"Well, ask him if he understands our Heavenly State's culture first. Does he know what Big Turtle represents? " At this time, Hong Dali couldn't be bothered with James anymore. But seeing that Lin Hao was on good terms with him, he spoke a few more words with him. Otherwise, he would have thrown him out long ago — I'm not begging you, what's there to be arrogant about?
"OK." Instantly, the translator conversed with James for a while. Then, the translator said, "Mr. James said he knows what Big Turtle represents. But he also said that those are all absurd things. Big Turtle is Big Turtle, just an especially big alligator snapping turtle. There's nothing great about it … "Speaking up to this point, the translator saw that Hong Dali's expression didn't look too good. He hurriedly and carefully added," Young Master Dali, I'm just a translator. I have to translate whatever Boss says. Please don't blame me. "
Hearing that, Hong Dali was amused. He nodded and said, "En, don't worry. I promise I won't make things difficult for you. Tell him that Hollywood is just a small place. To put it nicely, it's called the center of the world's film industry. To put it bluntly, it's just a small county. I really don't care about it. "
Once Hong Dali said that, Tang Muxin instantly applauded. "Dali, well said! Domineering, I support you! I'll give you 32 likes! "
Li Nianwei, Lin Zixuan, and the nine lackeys all gave him a thumbs up.
The lackeys all thought in their hearts, "Following Young Master, the realm is indeed different! You won't lose out no matter where you go! "" Young Master has steel! Look at what he said. He just said that Big Turtle is just an ordinary alligator snapping turtle, and Young Master said that Hollywood is just a small county. This is a good slap in the face! "
The translator wanted to translate Hong Dali's words into English, but he didn't expect that James would actually pull the translator aside and angrily walk in front of Hong Dali. Their foreheads were almost touching. James angrily said in rusty Chinese, "Mister Hong, what do you mean by this!? Are you looking down on our Hollywood? Our Hollywood is not only the birthplace of global fashion, but also the center of the global music and movie industry! We have the world's top entertainment industry and luxury brands, leading and representing the highest level of global fashion! "
"Oh …" Hong Dali stepped back and turned to look at the translator. He waved his hand and grinned. "You, translator. Yes, you, come here."
"Me?" The translator pointed at his own nose and hurried over. "Young Master Dali, what can I do for you?"
"En, help me translate one sentence." Hong Dali sniffled. "What does it have to do with me! Just this sentence! "
"This …" The translator was sweating profusely, but he naturally didn't dare to reject Hong Dali's request. He hurriedly translated at the same time. "Mr. James, Young Master Hong Dali said: I don't care …"
Before he finished speaking, Hong Dali directly pulled him aside. "Not imposing at all!" Saying so, Hong Dali turned around and asked Tang Muxin, "Xinxin, if you want to translate it directly, say it according to the word!"
"Okay!" Tang Muxin grinned. "Close, my, bird, thing."
"En." Then, Hong Dali looked at James and said, "Close my bird thing!" At the end, he didn't forget to add, "Understand?"
"You! Do you know that you are making an enemy out of the whole of Hollywood!? " James angrily said, "Everyone has to respect me over there. Even those movie giants don't dare to speak to me like this! Even our honorary mayor of Hollywood has to show respect to me! We have a deep background in fashion and the support of magnificent technology. We have always been imitated by people all over the world. Many celebrities in your Heavenly State want to develop their careers there even if they want to bribe us! "
"Oh, I'm so scared by what you say!" Hong Dali still had that cheeky look on his face. "But what has this got to do with me? I said I won't borrow, so I won't borrow. Translate, synchronize it! "
"This …" That translator was really depressed today. He could only start translating for James. He mumbled again. "¥% ¥… &% (*) (* * —) —"
Tang Muxin and the rest almost died from laughing. This Hong Dali was really too good at playing pranks. At first, he brought a translator, but after a few sentences, this James started to speak Chinese. Hong Dali, on the other hand, didn't let the translator stay idle. He started to ask the translator to translate his words into English and then returned it back …
Actually, speaking of which, everyone present really didn't have a good impression of this James. They all hated him.
You said you can speak Chinese, so why did you have to bring a translator to act cool? What's the use? To show that you have a noble status? Our Young Master isn't awesome, but he didn't do this!
"You are making an enemy out of the whole of Hollywood!" James gritted his teeth and said, "I can guarantee! From now on, any movie related to you will definitely not be allowed to enter Merika! Definitely not! "
"Oh, actually, I have something to say to you too." Hong Dali grinned. "Don't act cool. If you act cool, you will be struck by lightning." After saying that, Hong Dali sniffled and added, "Also … Who made the rule that Hollywood must be in Merika?"
