Chapter 674 Hey, I'm under pressure that I shouldn't have at this age
Hollywood.
Duncan, who is in his fifties, already has some gray hair on his head.
Of course, the spirit is very good.
After all, he has traveled to almost all parts of the world in the past five years. After resting and leisurely for such a long time, can he be in poor spirits?
Although he is in good spirits, deep down in his heart there is more or less the pride of youth.
Yes, proud!
Just over ten days ago.
The news spread almost immediately in film circles around the world.
That is, a movie that came out of nowhere, "The Pianist" has been infinitely close to "El Niño", and the Hollywood box office tetralogy of "El Niño" is about to become history!
When he saw the news, he didn't care at first. He thought it was just a publicity stunt.
In recent years, how many movies have raised their box office revenue to that of "El Niño" in order to gain popularity?
But what happened next?
Later, these movies were all released, and they were all tragedies.
A few days later, Duncan suddenly received another message. When he saw the message, he was instantly stunned.
The movie "The Pianist" has been released, and it has officially surpassed "El Niño" with a box office of 630 million!
He couldn't believe it!
I even thought I was dreaming.
When he confirmed again and again, and even personally called Hollywood to confirm that the news was truly regretful, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
It would be fine if the creator of Beyond "El Niño" is a Hollywood colleague...
But when he saw that the founder turned out to be a Chinese, he suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable!
Of course, he is not racist like some others.
But it just feels very unpleasant!
Where is China?
This is no secret anymore, right?
It is undeniable that China's economy has indeed developed rapidly in recent years, and its entertainment industry has indeed gradually increased.
But!
Hollywood has always been the leader in the film industry!
From the perspective of Hollywood, China is just a relatively large market.
Hollywood movies have always entered China and dominated the headlines by wreaking havoc on China. It has always been Hollywood movies that suppress Chinese movies. They are the existence that Chinese movies can only look up to!
This is like a sense of superiority imprinted deep in the soul, allowing Hollywood to overlook China and even the Chinese people.
but……
"The Pianist on the Sea" suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Not to mention that it exploded at the box office all the way and even surpassed his own "El Niño" in the end, and the creator was a Chinese!
The whole of Hollywood felt a very strong storm coming!
Makes them quite uncomfortable!
At the same time, Duncan felt a sense of being provoked, like an eagle being overlooked by ants.
How could he bear this?
then……
Duncan finally made a decision at that moment!
He decided to take action!
He shouted out to this Chinese guy on Twitter!
Duncan always felt that the success of "The Pianist on the Sea" was too accidental, even though the piano music in it was very nice, and even though Lu Yuan, a Chinese, had good acting skills...
But it was still accidental!
However, what Duncan never expected was that it would be two days!
Yes, it's been two full days.
James, who had been extremely arrogant on Twitter, suddenly lost his voice. At the same time, Lu Yuan's reply has not appeared yet!
Although all the media in Hollywood were talking about Lu Yuan being frightened at this moment, he was too frightened to respond. Although Duncan also knew that this was probably the reason, he still felt very uncomfortable!
He felt as if his fist had been filled with strength but hit the cotton hard...
It is really weak!
He doesn't like this.
What he hopes to get is that this Chinese man can't bear his ridicule, and then responds to him, saying some big words!
When these things brewed to a certain extent, I took a slap on his pride.
Let him know that no matter how hard he works, he is just a foil, and his so-called talent is just a joke!
It feels so good to make him feel so desperate!
But……
This lack of response makes people feel uninterested.
but!
hehe!
Is this how you want to escape from the past?
Feel sorry!
no!
Since you choose to escape, let me add something more to you!
"Mr. Lu Yuan, I haven't received a response from you these days. I thought about it carefully and I think you should also know what an eagle is and what an ant is. Very good, Mr. Lu Yuan, I appreciate your
Self-knowledge... Of course, many times, I have to remind you,
It is not enough for a person to be self-aware, he also needs to be polite, know how to respond to the words of his predecessors, and know... Those who escape can only be cowards in their lives... Of course, if a company is opened by a coward, the people in the company will also be cowards.
All, I hope you can come out..."
After this tweet was posted, it was immediately flooded with countless negative messages.
Although Duncan expressed his appreciation, he was actually mocking Lu Yuan for being a coward who only knows how to escape...
All the media in Hollywood are excited!
They all look forward to Lu Yuan's response.
If there is no response to this, then...
This Chinese...
Too cowardly?
…………………………………………
"Boss, have you read Duncan's Twitter? I really can't help it. Who does this person think he is? Who does he think he is? He is just a has-been old ***, God! Boss, I really can't help it.
I can't stand it anymore...just respond!" James was going crazy on the phone!
"..."
"Boss, although this person is very powerful, we don't need to be afraid of him at all. Really, we can give him a try. I don't think my "Wolverine" will be bad at the box office. Boss, otherwise, I am recommending
Please respond to him! Let's not keep silent anymore, people are saying this about us!" Andorra looked obviously angry on the phone.
"..."
"Damn it, Ayuan, why the hell did you get married with such big news, and you didn't fucking tell me? Ahhh! Ayuan, I'm going crazy, really, I'm going crazy, you've really changed
Now, you used to come to me whenever there was any big news, but now you don’t come to me even if there is news. You are no longer the A Yuan you were before! And, A Yuan, Deng over there
I'm so sarcastic about you, and they say you're a softie. Are you really going to be a coward? Impossible! This is not your character at all. What are you holding back? Tell me, okay? I want to do it.
An exclusive!" Zhou Shuai was so angry that he yelled several words on the phone. After venting his anger, he asked Lu Yuan in a very expectant mood.
"..."
"Ayuan, something happened in Hollywood. After hearing this provocation, I felt very angry, but why didn't you respond at all? This is really unlike you!" Fatty Wei also called strangely.
.
"..."
afternoon!
Yes, Lu Yuan has been answering the phone since the afternoon.
The "remote" companies in Hollywood are now very dissatisfied and all are very angry.
Almost everyone is filled with indignation and can’t help it!
After answering these calls, Lu Yuan appeared on the international news and saw that Duncan was mocking himself and even provoking him in a very unpleasant language.
Lu Yuan suddenly felt a little angry.
What's going on with this guy?
Do I even know you?
Ignore him and he still jumps happily?
In fact, when Lu Yuan himself faced the first provocation, he was actually very calm.
Especially after receiving the certificate today, for some reason Lu Yuan suddenly felt that his life had begun to reach a new level.
Going up the stairs like this is like turning a boy into a young man. It feels like many things have changed!
It seems that except for a home, other things have become less important.
As for Duncan’s previous provocation?
Lu Yuan somehow felt that it didn't matter.
Eagles and ants, do you have the final say?
If you say I am an eagle, I will be an eagle. If you say I am an ant, I will be an ant?
Why don't you fly up to the sky and let me have a look?
Lu Yuan found it extremely funny.
but……
But today.
When people almost pointed their noses at him and laughed at him for being a coward, and even called the company a bunch of cowards, he became really angry.
finally……
He took a deep breath.
"Brother Zhou..."
"Ayuan!" Zhou Shuai called and was suddenly very excited!
"Do you have a Twitter account?"
"have!"
"Okay, I'll take a video and send it to you."
"God, Ayuan, are you finally going to explode? I'm already so thirsty for news!" The other end of the phone shouted excitedly!
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan was silent for a while and took out his mobile phone.
"Mr. Duncan... First of all, let me make it clear that I am not a coward, and no one in my company is a coward..."
"Secondly, Mr. Duncan... please forgive my ignorance. You can also understand my arrogance. Of course, these things are all yours. After all, I don't know you. Before this, I didn't know who you were.
who……"
"I always feel that there is no need to respond to a provocation from someone I don't know. What do you think? After all, it is never anyone's decision to decide who is the eagle or who is the ant."
"Later, I learned that you were the creator of "El Nino". I deeply regret this. At the same time, I also want to say sorry to you. Well, I'm sorry... I accidentally broke your box office record.
No, I don’t want to. I originally just wanted to make a movie casually, but who knows... Hey, I won’t pretend anymore, I’m showing my hand. In fact, I am very busy, really, I am very busy..."
"I never mean to show off, but you have to know that the person you are talking to now is a screenwriter, poet, writer, songwriter, director, actor, piano composer, game developer... Oh,
Sorry, I seem to have too many identities, Mr. Duncan, I hope you can understand, after all, so many identities are really too tiring!"
"Since...you must ask me to give you a polite response, then I can only give you a response."
"Oh, by the way, I am the boss of a medium-sized entertainment company. In fact, as the boss of an entertainment company, although I don't want to, I have to put up an advertisement. By the way, the company currently wants to
I have made many movies, such as Mr. Andor's superhero series "
"Wolverine", Mr. Thomson's "Star Wars", Mr. Forrest's "Rocky"... Everyone is very busy, and I really don't have time to bully you on the Internet... Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I exploded
Sorry, as the screenwriter of these movies, I should be a very qualified person..."
"Of course, the company has other things, so I won't talk about them. After all, I'm also busy. I'm also busy with a big movie "Titanic" with an investment of 200 million US dollars! Hey... really... I'm still the first
Being such a big director at once...it's really stressful. In fact, I just want to be a salted fish waiting to die. Why? Mr. Duncan, do you think I'm so busy?"
"I remembered again, I am still a singer... I will release an album soon..."
"Hey, it's a lot of pressure! I have endured pressure and handsomeness that I shouldn't have at this age. I really want to... relax a little bit!"
"But fortunately, I'm married! This morning, I received the certificate and I'm married!"
"..."
When Lu Yuan finished recording the video, he hesitated for a moment and then sent it to Zhou Shuai.
