Chapter 911 Looking for the Director

Sure enough, the Director's Guild just spread the news. Good guy, in just one day, hundreds of directors came to submit their resumes.

Xiao Yunhai spent one night reading all the resumes carefully, and finally chose five of them.

However, instead of letting the five come together, he arranged them in order based on their achievements and his own expectations, and asked them to audition one by one.

It's a pity that although the first four directors had dazzling light before, their shooting concept did not conform to "Spider-Man", which made Xiao Yunhai very disappointed.

The fifth director, Plancico, is a very special person. He has made seven films, the first three were big hits, the middle two broke even, and the last two failed without even panties left.

The reason why Xiao Yunhai paid attention to this guy was mainly because he said on his resume that the reason for the failed films was not him, but the producer behind him who directed randomly, messed up the entire crew, and seriously deviated from his directing. The idea, coupled with the film's untimely birth, and the hits of the time, created a problem.

In order to judge the authenticity of his resume, Xiao Yunhai found out the news at the time from the Internet. Indeed, this guy was unlucky enough.

Even the last film that failed was related to Xiao Yunhai, so he ran into his "Heroes of Jingwu".

With the exception of a few great directors, other directors in Hollywood only have the right to fail twice. Plancico failed to make money for investors in four consecutive films, and the result can be imagined.

For more than a year, no company or investor asked him to film.

In a Los Angeles bar, a middle-aged man with messy hair is drinking with a emaciated young man.

If there are movie fans around, you will be able to recognize that both of them are very famous figures in Hollywood, the older one is Plancico,

Young people are Hollywood A-list actor Lance.

Lance is an actor brought out by Plancico. He played a supporting role and a leading role in two of Plancico's best-selling films, which made him instantly become a first-line movie star from a film school student.

Therefore, the relationship between the two is very good, comparable to father and son.

"Teacher, you can't drink any more." Lance stopped Plancico's hand that was about to take the wine glass, and said, "You should take a good bath now, clean up yourself, at least when you go to the interview, give it to Mr. Xiao Make a good impression."

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Plancico's face, and he said, "Interview? How is that possible? It's been two days since I submitted my resume, and I haven't received an interview call at all. I heard that he has met four popular directors. And we talked very much. It is estimated that the director of "Spider-Man" has already been selected. Lance, I am really grateful that you can still remember me as an old man. You know? With your size and acting skills, Spider-Man is this The characters are just made for you. Unfortunately, I'm not the director, otherwise I'd definitely use you."

Plancico ignored Lance's dissuasion and took another swig of beer.

Lance shook his head and continued to persuade: "Teacher, you once said to me that opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. You are only in a temporary downturn now, and everyone in the circle knows that the two movies have Failure has nothing to do with you at all. You are just a scapegoat for others. I believe that people with vision will soon find you to film. Even if they don't find you, you can write your own script. "

Plancico said with a dazed eye: "In the past year or so, I have written three scripts and cast almost all the film companies, but they are all dead, and there is not even a trace of news."

"Hehe, I really envy Bi Kewen, an investor as generous as Mr. Xiao who can give the greatest autonomy."

Plancico took another sip of wine and said, "Unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity he did. Maybe, my directing career is over."

After saying that, he lay down on the table.

Just then, the phone that Plancico had placed on the table suddenly rang.

Seeing that Plancico was sitting there unresponsive, as if he was about to be drunk, Lance shook his head helplessly and answered the phone for him.

"Hello."

"Is it Mr. Plancico? I'm Raul, the general manager of Marvel Comics. I wonder if you are free tomorrow. Our boss, Mr. Xiao, wants to meet with you to discuss issues related to "Spider-Man". "

When Lance heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, looking at Plancico who had already fallen asleep, and quickly said: "Mr. Raul, I'm Lance, a Hollywood actor. Mr. Plancico is in the bathroom and it's not convenient to answer the phone. .I will inform him of the good news."

Raul smiled and said: "It turns out to be the famous Mr. Lance, hello. Then please tell Mr. Plancico, if you are interested in "Spider Thread", please come to our Marvel Building at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. "

Lance suppressed his excitement and said, "I think he will be very happy to hear the news. Thank you, Mr. Raul."

Raul said: "You're welcome."

After the conversation, Lance put the wine money on the table, and then returned to his residence with Plancico, who was already unconscious.

At seven o'clock the next morning, Lance came to Plancico's bedroom and saw that he was still sleeping with a dead pig. He couldn't help shaking his head, stepped forward, and woke him abruptly.

Looking at his sleepy eyes, Lance said loudly, "Teacher, if you don't get up again, I think you will really miss Spider-Man."

Hearing this familiar name, Plancico was stunned for a while, then suddenly widened his eyes and asked with an incredible expression, "Lance, you... What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly."

Lance said with a smile: "Teacher, congratulations, Mr. Raul from Marvel Comics called you last night and told you to meet Mr. Xiao at nine o'clock this morning. It is ten ten now, if you are late After a while, maybe you're really going to end your directing career."

As soon as Plancico heard this, he immediately cheered, like a corpse, and got out of bed with excitement on his face, just stood up, suddenly stopped, and said suspiciously: "Lance, you are not To make me happy, lie to me."

Lance shrugged and said nonchalantly, "If you think I'm lying to you, you don't have to go."

Looking at Proncico's expectant expression with a hint of doubt, Lance finally couldn't help laughing: "Okay, teacher, we're already running out of time. I already called the clothing brand company I endorsed last night. I got the phone and asked them to bring you a suit according to your size. It is estimated that they will be here at 7:30. My full-time stylist will arrive at 7:40 and let her fix it for you. Mr. Xiao He's a world-renowned director who doesn't get fooled like other investors. You have to take advantage of this opportunity."

Plancico completely believed it at this time, and said gratefully: "Lance, thank you. When I asked you to be an actor in my movie, I really did not find it wrong. I believe that as long as I and Mr. Xiao Talk for half an hour and I'll be able to impress him. Get ready, my Spider-Man."

"Oops." Speaking of which, Plancico suddenly patted his thigh and said: "Broken, I wrote some of my thoughts on "Spider Thread" on my laptop. No, I have to Hurry back and print them out."

Lance said with a smile: "Teacher, last night I saw you giving up on yourself in the bar, and I was quite worried. But now it seems that you are well prepared. Don't worry, let's have breakfast first and wait for the stylist to come. I'll drive to your house to get your notebook. It's not far anyway, twenty minutes at most."

Plancico nodded and said, "Alright. Lance, thank you."

Lance said: "Teacher, you have thanked you many times."
