Chapter 701 Big Director Bikwen's Phone

"Hi, Mr. Beekwen, good evening."

Bikoven's old but loud voice came over the phone.

"Hello, Kerry. You seem to be in a good mood from the tone of your voice."

Kerry smiled and said, "Of course. My good friend Xiao came to Hollywood from China. He just had a great dinner at his place and drank a lot of red wine. He had a great time."

"Xiao?" Bikoven paused and said, "Is that the young Huaxia director who filmed "Heroes of Heroes" and "Infernal Affairs"?"

A sly look flashed in Kerry's eyes, and he said, "That's right, it's him."

Beekwen said: "I have seen two of his films, and they are really good. This young man is a genius. He seems to understand the preferences of fans and is good at using small costs to get big box office."

Kerry said: "Mr. Beekwen, you may not know that in addition to being a director, he is also a world-class rich man worth tens of billions of dollars. Isn't your "Lord of the Rings" always attracting investment? You can find it he."

Bikoven paused and said, "Kerry, the reason why you said Mr. Xiao is to divert my attention and disguisedly refuse to invest in my movies, right?"

Kerry smiled bitterly: "Mr. Beekwen, I've said it countless times. I really can't do anything about your "Lord of the Rings". MGM is all against it, what do you want me to do?"

Beekwen said: "You should believe in my ability."

Kerry said: "But everyone, including my father, didn't believe it, and I really had nothing to do. Mr. Beekwen, Xiao is a great director and a great businessman. He has sharp eyes, deep pockets, and more. The important thing is that you have two of the strongest special effects companies in the world, Fantasy and Magic. So, as long as you can convince him, everything can be solved.”

"While chatting tonight,

I mentioned you and your Lord of the Rings to him. He seems to have read the novel, and he is very interested in his words. I think you can try it with him. "

Bi Kewen thought for a while and said, "That's fine. I'll go to him in two days, hoping he can bring me good news."

When Kerry heard this, he quickly said, "He understands that he will be returning to China in the afternoon. If you want to see him, you can only see him tomorrow morning."

Beekwen said: "Oh, that's too bad. Kerry, can you help him to wait another day? I have a very important thing to deal with in New York right now, and I can't be in Los Angeles at the earliest tomorrow afternoon."

Kerry said: "Mr. Beekwen, don't worry, I can give you Xiao's phone number, you can talk about it first. If you can successfully make him interested in "The Lord of the Rings" during the call, then Xiao is sure Willing to wait for you. On the contrary, if you can't do it, it will be of no use to see him tomorrow afternoon."

Bikoven said anxiously: "Then you quickly give me the phone, I want to have a good talk with him."

After Kerry told him Xiao Yunhai's cell phone number, he hung up.

Jesse next to him saw his smug look and said, "Kerry, isn't it inappropriate for you to do this?"

Kerry shook his head again and again and said sternly: "Jesse, you are wrong. You should say that I gave the two great directors a chance to communicate. They are all talented movie wizards, and they must have a lot of common language. With Huaxia In other words, it is called sympathy and mutual confidant. Maybe they will thank me."

Jesse said: "But what I seem to see is that you are tricking him."

Kerry said: "But Jesse, don't forget, this seems to be an idea you gave me."

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

In the manor villa, after Kerry and Jesse left, Xiao Yunhai chatted with Chu Heng and Jiao Fangtao for a while, then went back to their rooms to rest.

Xiao Yunhai took a hot bath and was about to play online for a while when the phone on the bed suddenly rang. When I opened it, it showed a stranger's phone number, and it was an American number.

"Hello, I'm Xiao Yunhai."

"Hello, Mr. Xiao, I'm Bi Kewen. I'm sorry to bother you so late."

When Xiao Yunhai heard this, a clear smile appeared on his face.

He knew that Kerry must have betrayed himself to escape Beekwen's harassment.

However, this was exactly what Xiao Yunhai wanted.

Beekwen is the most famous director of fantasy movies in Hollywood, and his ability is no less than that of Peter Jackson in his previous life.

Xiao Yunhai's predecessor had seen several of his films, all of which were very good, and the box office was even more terrifyingly high. If it weren't for the fact that "The Lord of the Rings" needs to create a realistic Middle-earth world, the layout is too large, and the funds needed are astronomical, it is estimated that a film company would have looked for him long ago.

These things flashed in Xiao Yunhai's mind, and he said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Beekwen, it is an honor to receive your call. If I guess correctly, my phone number should be Kerry told yours."

Bi Kewen said humorously: "That's right. Kerry may have been entangled with me and couldn't stand it, so he introduced you to me. In Chinese, it should be called disaster."

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Bi Kewen to be so humorous, and he seems to be very proficient in Chinese culture."

Bi Kewen said: "When I was young, I stayed in China for three years, and I was very interested in the extensive and profound culture there. Unfortunately, after so many years, I almost forgot about it."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Then you can go to Huaxia again. Compared with before, Huaxia has undergone earth-shaking changes."

Bikwen said: "I visited it once the year before last, and it has indeed changed a lot, but the Chinese cuisine has not changed, and it is still so delicious."

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "If you have the opportunity to go to Yanjing, I can take you to eat the entire Yanjing city."

Bikoven said with a pun: "I hope this opportunity will come as soon as possible. Mr. Xiao, I think you should know the purpose of my call, right?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Kerry told me that after you finished filming "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", you have been busy with the preparations for "The Lord of the Rings", and it seems that the progress is not particularly smooth."

Bikwen said without concealment: "It took me a month to find more than 30 large and small film companies, and none of them were willing to invest in the "Lord of the Rings" film. Mr. Xiao, you are also a world-class filmmaker. Director, what do you think of The Lord of the Rings?"

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said, "I know very well what those film companies think. The background of "The Lord of the Rings" is too huge, and there are many races. In terms of special effects alone, it is impossible to win without a billion dollars. If you add the actors' remuneration, the cost of shooting, etc., hehe, the three movies will cost at least about 2.5 billion US dollars. Therefore, even if you are One of the most powerful directors in Hollywood, and no company dares to take this risk. Because it is crazy. If there is a problem, their company may also be destroyed.”
