"It's really a great thing that you can make gangs disappear. Unlike the United States, there are several gangs here in Los Angeles. Whites, blacks, and Soviets all have gangs here. Shootings happen even in broad daylight. It's really
It’s fatal.”
Lucas is very dissatisfied with the security of his country.
"There's nothing you can do about it. You Americans are allowed to have guns. With guns, ordinary people dare to confront the police. If President Reagan ordered that people not be allowed to own guns, I believe your United States would be much safer!"
"That's not okay. Holding a gun is a basic right for Americans. Not to mention the third-rate actor like Reagan, even President Washington has no right to issue such an order. In that case, the entire United States will be in chaos!"
In the eyes of Americans, it is the president of the United States' business to return society to chaos. You cannot attribute the responsibility to the common people. To them, it is a matter of course for the common people to hold guns, just like breathing and eating.
"George is right. Article 2 of the Bill of Rights in the Constitution clearly states: A well-organized militia is necessary to the security of a free country. The right of the people to keep and bear arms is inviolable. That's it."
This short sentence guarantees Americans’ freedom to own guns and their ability to defend themselves. If we want to control guns, we must change the Constitution, which is impossible!”
Sun Mingren spoke at this moment.
"Then there is no way. While guns have given you Americans the ability to defend yourself, they have also brought too many serious consequences that you have to bear. Our country's tradition has the theory of harmony between yin and yang. Now you have yin and yang that are out of harmony.
If you want to recover, it depends on the ability of your leader. Anyway, I have no choice, and I even want to buy a gun for self-defense!"
Liu Lang smiled.
"No problem! If you want, I can think of a way. Any pistol or rifle will do, even a submachine gun. You don't have to buy it. I'll just give it to you!"
Lucas had more than a dozen guns and nearly a thousand rounds of ammunition in his home, and his firepower was comparable to that of a squad of regular soldiers.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things anymore...!"
Liu Lang waved his hand. The quality of America has nothing to do with him. He is here to study and make money.
"Everyone, now we are going to enter the record business. Since we are going to do it, we must do our best. My goal, as I mentioned just now, is to achieve a profit of at least 100 million U.S. dollars within two years, 500 million U.S. dollars within three years, and strive to become a
The best record company in the world, whether you have confidence or not, I have confidence anyway!"
"If Mr. Liu says it can be done, it will be done!"
Lin Guodong and Sun Mingren shouted in unison, and Lucas on the side curled his lips. These two guys really obeyed Liu Lang unconditionally... But seeing Liu Lang's confidence, he also murmured in his heart: Is this little guy?
Can it really be done?
Of course, Lucas hopes that Sandown will become bigger and bigger, and it is best to kill Universal and Warner.
But thinking back, in Lucas's view, it is almost impossible to defeat those companies, because they have too many resources, and they have too many stars to count. What does Santang have now?
I don’t have a single star, I haven’t even seen any works, I’m really broke, I don’t even have a single hair and I dare to say that I can defeat a giant company, it’s really a bit of a dream.
In the eyes of Quentin Tarantino, Liu Lang, Lin Guodong and George Lucas are all big bosses. The big bosses are discussing the future development of the company. In Liu Lang's depiction, the future Shengtang will definitely be in Hollywood.
It occupies a position in many large companies.
But why didn't they say what they were going to do after they talked about it? Just now Liu Lang clearly said that he wanted to invest in his own script, why did he ignore it in the blink of an eye?
"Mr. Liu, what do you think of my script?"
Quentin Tarantino found an opportunity to interject.
"Script? The script you just told me?"
Liu Lang asked back.
"Yes, yes, that's it! But I haven't finished yet!"
"Quentin, your idea is good, but it's not complete yet. This script needs at least three storylines to explain the entire story completely!"
Liu Lang waved his hand.
"Do you need three more paragraphs?"
Quentin Tarantino was shocked. The script was indeed not finished yet, but he couldn't figure out how to write it next. He just felt that the current idea was right, and as long as the whole plot was sorted out smoothly, it would be sure
It's a classic script.
But Liu Lang directly told him that he needed three more stories to complete the story. How to add it?
"Mr. Quentin, I still like this script very much. Get me a copy and I'll take a closer look. As for investment, don't worry. What I said is true. Your first movie will be yours."
The story I just told, but the specific time... maybe in the second half of this year, George, since we already have a record business, we must also start the movie business. You are an expert in making movies. Think about this business.
!”
Liu Lang "instructed" Lucas.
"Jimmy, no one knows how to make movies better than me. As long as you have money, I can find good projects. It's better than finding some unknown scripts and shooting them yourself. It's too risky!"
As a well-known director, Lucas knows all the procedures of a movie from project establishment to shooting to final release.
First, a group of screenwriters write out the script. If the company thinks the script is good, it will start the project. Then it will continue to polish the script until there are no major problems. Then it will set a budget, and then find a director. Once the director is confirmed, it will
Research the script and maybe make some changes.
After the script is finalized, it’s time to find actors. There are many actors in Hollywood, and most of them are professional actors. They come from various drama schools, and some are Broadway actors. However, they can only play supporting roles in most movies and cannot
To prop up a play's box office, if a movie wants to be a hit, the easiest way is to hire Hollywood stars to participate, otherwise no one will watch it.
Again, the place where Shengtang currently leads other companies is the creativity of Transformers and the production of animation special effects. Apart from this, it has no other advantages, including money and talent.
Even if Quentin Tarantino really has a good script, he doesn't have the money to hire a star to act in it. Nowadays, the salary of a popular Hollywood star must not be more than one million US dollars. This price is a bit high for Saint Tang.
, so Lucas is not in a hurry to get into the movie business now. It's not that he won't do it, but he feels that the time has not come yet, and he will at least wait until the "Toy Story" project is completed.
"oops!"
Lucas' words made Quentin so angry. Why did he become a high-risk person?
"Mr. Quentin, please polish the script again and give it to me in a month. Then we will polish it again. By the way, does this script have a name now?"
