Chapter 24 Zhao Jingmai is shocked! Is Miss St1 still single?
That night, Chu Xuan just stayed up late to film some of the night scenes, and it was already midnight when he finally got home.
That's right, he bought a small second-story single-family house worth $600,000 directly in Chino Hills, the metropolitan area of Los Santos.
He can afford to buy a mansion in Beverly Hills, but most of the funds must be reserved for the company. Chu Xuan can live alone, and he doesn't pay much attention to it.
Even his car is an "unremarkable" Bentley Continental GT, and the top model is only $200,000.
Out of his love for "Power of Evil", he also bought the 1967 Impala muscle sports car he rented before and collected it, which is equivalent to the surrounding of American TV series.
After the movies make money, Chu Xuan will have time to buy luxury houses, luxury cars and so on.
Dragging his tired body home, he heard the bell ring as soon as he fell asleep.
Stumbled to pick up, but heard a sweet and glutinous voice, speaking Chinese.
"Chu Xuan! Are you selling calves over there?"
"What?"
"Could it be a gamble? Chu Xuan, although you started with a trick, but with your temperament and acting skills, you will definitely become a star again, there is no need to go down the wrong road!"
"No, Zhao Jingmai, what are you talking about?" Chu Xuan was at a loss.
"The 100 million RMB of Rui Shi Bank, is it yours in my name?"
"Yeah, this is the box office split paid to you. I agreed to give you a 10% split. After all, the cost of shooting is all your investment."
"Wait...the box office split? Are you really making money by making movies?"
Zhao Jingmai was completely dumbfounded.
In her opinion, 40,000 RMB, which is more than 6,000 US dollars, can make a movie? What about trouble?
When she paid Chu Xuan money, she just hoped that he would act well there and win the appreciation of a certain director.
Or go to the music scene, Chu Xuan's singing and dancing skills are very good.
Use the $6,000 to create an album Demo and go to major record companies.
There will always be someone who appreciates Chu Xuan, invests in him to make an album, and makes his debut in the North American music scene.
As for being a director and making a movie, how is that possible?
In more than two months, what kind of film can you make with $6,000? Can you still make millions at the box office?
This kind of thing has subverted Zhao Jingmai's cognition.
"Yeah, "Ghost Story" released in North America some time ago is my movie."
"Eh? Didn't notice."
Zhao Jingmai laughed guiltily, she seemed to have misunderstood Chu Xuan.
"Damn, it's not a good movie. Anyway, if I promise you, I will definitely give it to you."
"I'm not short of money now. Otherwise, you can use the money. If you really want to open a film company, you will definitely need money."
Zhao Jingmai is also worried about Chu Xuan.
"Hahaha, don't worry. Thanks to your start-up capital, it's not bad now. By the way, how have you been filming recently?"
"Let's be so-so." Speaking of this, Zhao Jingmai was also a little helpless.
It wasn't long before she really entered the public eye. The popular suspense TV series "Endpoint" made her a little popular.
Other works that can come out are only TV dramas such as "Youth Party" and "Farewell".
It's not even a female number one, at most a female second or third.
The only big-screen movie he starred in was the comedy "I Can't Stand My Brother".
She plays Miaomiao, the best friend of the female advocate Zifen.
Zhao Jingmai looks a little baby-faced, very sweet and attractive, but not the type that is stunning at first glance.
Among actresses in the film and television circle, her popularity is also slightly weaker than Zhang Zifen.
After all, Zhang Zifen is a resident guest of "Mushroom House". She Zhao Jingmai doesn't pursue much, she just wants to act well and pushes down a lot of announcements.
She dreams of being a real female lead on the big screen.
Chu Xuan also seemed to hear Zhao Jingmai's unwillingness, so he comforted him.
"After a while, I may make a film about the Yanhuang culture. I may let you play at that time."
"Ah? Really! Then I'll wait for your good news!"
Zhao Jingmai smiled happily.
In fact, she didn't believe it and thought Chu Xuan was just polite.
After all, the right to speak in Hollywood is still in the hands of others, how can it be possible to attach importance to oriental culture.
And Chu Xuan is probably just a rookie director who started out through horror films, and it will take several years to grow up.
Since Chu Xuan has this intention, Zhao Jingmai is already very moved.
The two casually chatted for a while, and then she could hear the exhaustion in Chu Xuan's voice and urged him to go to sleep.
At this time, the time in the Dragon Kingdom was still in the afternoon, and Zhao Jingmai had nothing to do, and curiously searched for entertainment news in North America.
Generally, North American horror films are not released in Dragon Country, and few people will know the North American box office rankings.
No one will pay attention to who the director of a new film is.
As a result, Zhao Jingmai searched the North American news and once again dropped his jaw!
"The Youngest Billionaire", "Chinese-American Talent and New Director", "The First-of-its-kind Shooting Technique", "Father of Pseudo-Documentary", "North American Box Office Champion for 6 Weeks in a Row", "$6,000 Earning 240 Million Box Office!"
The superposition of these buffs made Zhao Jingmai doubt his life.
The boy who was originally forced to leave, in just three months, has transformed into something that makes people unable to look directly at him!
"He's already so strong!"
...
The shooting progress is going smoothly, and "La La Land" is almost coming to an end.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of September, and Los Santos was tinged with a touch of autumn.
In the film, the male protagonist Seb and the female protagonist Mia have broken up peacefully after a quarrel.
Mia's audition is successful, and she can go to Paris to realize her dream of being a star;
Seb also chose to let it go and continued to work hard to realize the dream of a jazz bar.
From startup to completion, Chu Xuan only took 30 days, which is much faster than the 40 days of the original version in the previous life.
On this day, there was only one scene left in the whole film, which was the most memorable and classic scene in the whole film.
Mia, who had already made a name for herself, had already married. She and her husband went out for dinner. When she turned around on the way, she stumbled upon a bar with melodious jazz music.
The two walked into the bar, but Mia was surprised to find that the pianist was her former love.
Without saying a word, Seb sat down silently and played a familiar melody.
Mia seemed to be revolving around in her mind, reviewing the bits and pieces of how the two got along.
What would have happened if...you hadn't broken up in the first place?
Unfortunately, the song ended. The past will never come back.
Mia looked at Seb one last time before leaving.
This look is full of complex emotions, which has made Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone NG many times.
"Ryan, you have a great look and a perfect performance."
Chu Xuan praised the high commander, turned his head and said helplessly to Sister Stone.
"Emma, have you...haven't been in a relationship before? Recall it carefully and look for the feeling of relief and blessings after breaking up."
But I saw Emma Stone blushing embarrassedly: "I, I don't."
This time it was Chu Xuan's turn to be silly.
No, Sister Stone is 27, still single? *
