On the 27th, the great director Spielberg was going to hold a party at home and invited a group of friends, including Liang Kun.

The first week of the movie "Munich" has a normal box office in North America. If you want to make a comeback, you mainly look at overseas results. The good news is that the movie has a good reputation and you should be able to compete for the Oscars and Golden Globes next year.

Paramount has just settled the acquisition of "Dreamworks" and Spieburg is also confident to create big-name movies.

The two movies "Escape from the Clones" and "Red-Eye Flight" failed one after another, which directly led to DreamWorks having to sell out its ending. However, this is not a bad thing. Speech still has a lot of say and is still working with familiar big companies. It is just that it has to discuss with Paramount's senior executives when making movies.

The change is mainly about the choice of the theme of the film. If Paramount acquired DreamWorks in the first half of this year, they would not want to see a movie like "Munich", and they would definitely not be able to shoot it.

For Liang Kun, DreamWorks was acquired without any impact. He only wanted to make high-box commercial films.

In the morning, Teresa asked expectantly: "Do you need a female companion when you attend a party?"

Liang Kun refused her firmly. "Sorry, no, I mainly go to meet people this time. If I take you there, Steven might be unhappy."

"Then forget it..." Teresa wanted to see the world, but Liang Kun would not force her if she didn't agree.

A young actor of her level will not be noticed by any big director when he goes to a party. At most, he will chase stars when he sees stars and will not have the opportunity to cooperate. Those who can play the heroine in blockbusters must also be stars, with box office appeal, and Teresa has nothing.

It’s really not good for Liang Kun to bring his female companion to him. He is just a newcomer and the only movie has not been released yet.

When "Happy Death Day" is released, there will be no premiere.

There is no star in the crew, and the director is also an inexperienced newcomer. Even after holding a premiere, it will not attract any media or fans. If the movie wants to become famous, it must first gain a good reputation before attracting more people to the theater.

In the afternoon, Liang Kun was wearing an Empo Japanese-Armani casual suit and attended the party alone. Li Renjie drove him in a rented Mercedes-Benz car. He might have had two glasses of champagne with someone at the party, but no one sent him to drive back and became drunk.

Liang Kun's style can attract a lot of attention because he is Chinese, and he is tall and has a good figure, with wide shoulders and thin waists, just like a supermodel.

After not planning to participate in boxing competitions, Liang Kun adjusted his figure with red permanent props, all of which were set according to the best standards for international supermodels. There were no people in the world with better figures than him, and George Armani was 100% satisfied with him as his spokesperson.

Liang Kun came very early. When he entered the villa, he greeted Spieburg and the man with a long face beside him.

This big long face came earlier and was close to 190cm tall. Liang Kun recognized this big brother as director Michael Bay, nicknamed "Explosion Bay". His "Escape from the Island of Clones" this year made DreamWorks awful, but Speech still admired him very much.

Michael Bay is indeed a talented director, and has filmed famous blockbusters such as "The Brave of the Island", "The Peerless Driller", and "The Tragic Love Triangle of Pearl Harbor".

"I'm glad to see you, I'm Michael Bay."

"I have long admired Daming, and I like your movies very much." After introducing each other, the two shook hands.

"Liang, why did you come so early? This is not the time I inform you." Spieburg asked with a smile.

"I am a newcomer in the circle, and it doesn't feel good if I arrive late. Come early and if you have anything to help, I'm happy to serve you." Liang Kun said with a smile.

What can I help with in this kind of party? Spieburg cannot let Liang Kun be a waiter. At most, he will greet Spieburg when he receives guests.

Liang Kun stood beside Spieburg and greeted people. After the party started, it was different to ask someone to say hello to him. With Spieburg, people would guess their relationship. If Spieburg didn't say a word, people would also look down on Liang Kun. He went to talk to someone himself, and the big names might not bother to pay attention to him.

How many Chinese directors who have only made small-cost movies want to work with him? There are only a handful of Chinese directors who have made movies in the United States. Liang Kun is too young, and even if he is talented, everyone will take a wait-and-see attitude.

If Liang Kun wants to rise quickly, he must take the path of "hugging his thighs".

Early birds eat insects. They don’t need Speech to understand this principle.

Spieburg smiled at Michael Bay and said, "Did you see it? This is what I call a genius, and it's excellent in all aspects."

If Liang Kun had not been excellent in all aspects, he would not have been able to visit Speechburg's house. He had cooked twice. Speechburg's wife and children liked him very much. If Liang Kun was a Jew and settled in the United States, Speechburg would now want to recognize him as a child.

Before the other guests arrived, the three of them started talking about the movie.

Michael Bay's situation has not been good recently. After "Escape from the Cloned Island", no one asked him to make a movie, and the compensation was too bad. The investment cost of the movie was 122 million yuan, and the box office in North America was only 35 million yuan, and the global box office was only 162 million yuan in the end.

Michael Bay is a very personal director. He pays attention to visual effects. The film has no depth, even a little depth. The first-class action scenes have created Michael Bay and also restricted the height he has reached.

He likes to do explosions so much that his understanding of movies is always simple and crude. The first half of "Escape from the Cloned Island" carefully constructed some suspense puzzles, and even the extended inferences about the value of life are actually pretty good, but in the second half he filmed waves of explosions and car chase scenes.

In fact, the style of the second half is similar to the first half, so it is better to talk more about human nature and soul. But he is a "explosion shell" after all. If he doesn't shoot the explosion, he will feel uncomfortable all over.

I chatted with Liang Kun for a while today, Michael Bay was feeling comfortable all over. He felt that Liang Kun's words were "good".

When talking about his movies, Liang Kun always expressed some advantages and expressed his admiration for his talent. He believed that his next movie would definitely have a big box office.

"I don't know what to shoot in the next part yet, do you think I will definitely win a high box office?"

"Yes, I like your movies very much. You make big scenes and have gorgeous visual effects. The box office failure you directed is just a chance, and it is impossible to happen for the second time. I firmly believe in this."

In parallel worlds, Michael Bay has another advantage of being able to control costs. Paramount in "Transformers 2" budgeted 200 million, but he used less than 195 million. It is rare for blockbusters to not increase costs but return them, and Michael Bay used the remaining money as a patching effect.

The cost of "Transformers 3" is $190 million, because robot modeling can be reused, and that movie was the lowest cost among super blockbusters back then. Michael Bay's ability to control costs is obvious to all. He never overspents or timed out of filming, so the producers especially like him.

This is a capable man. Later, the Transformers series of movies were particularly popular in China. Michael Bay went to China for publicity many times. Liang Kun had a good relationship with him and might have the opportunity to cooperate in the future. Compared to playing a color scheme in Transformers, he wanted to learn some shooting techniques with Michael Bay.

Liang Kun thinks that the evolution of the Transformers movie is meaningless. The male protagonist must belong to Spieburg's godson Shia LaBeouf. Liang Kun can't play him well even if he decides to play him. Sam is a 24K pure silk, and Shia's image is more in line with it.

Liang Kun knew that he could not play the male lead without audition. His figure was generally called a "male god". Except for the male and female protagonists, no one else was outstanding. The real protagonist was a robot.

Even if he doesn't have the chance to work with Michael Bay, when he succeeds, it will be good for the two to play with each other in business.

Liang Kun commented on the movie "Munich" and his words were also very nice. He expressed the various advantages of filming, saying that the box office was generally because of the niche theme of the movie and could not attract young people.

The box office of filming movies with this kind of theme is no longer bad, and there are probably not many directors who dare to shoot this story.

Spieburg asked with a smile: "Aren't you young? Is the movie attracted you?"

"I feel average when watching this movie from the perspective of a young audience. My friends and I prefer special effects blockbusters, action, love, comedy movies. From a director's perspective, I like this movie and learn something."

Liang Kun didn't just talk about the advantages, after all, the movie's North American box office is indeed very average.

Guests arrived one after another, and Liang Kun met many familiar stars, Tom Hanks, Leonardo DiCaprio, Christopher Nolan, etc.

Everyone was curious when they saw Liang Kun beside Spieburg. Spieburg greeted someone and mentioned him simply, just like an elder introducing the younger generation.

Spieburg also mentioned the movie "Happy Death Day". "Although this is a small-cost movie, Liang made it very well. I believe that the movie will achieve good results, and his talent is greatly beyond my expectations."

Many people immediately understood that the news was true. Spieburg really admired Liang Kun and was willing to support him.

After more people, they start chatting with people and talking about movies. Usually, actors and directors are chatting to see if there is any opportunity to cooperate.

Liang Kun was not in a hurry to chat with the director. He first looked for "Little Little Lion" Leonardo to get to know him.

At this time, Little Lizi had already released the red mission to become the best actor of the Oscar, and Liang Kun took it. This was the only thing he needed to help. After starring in Jack in "Titanic", Lizi became a super international superstar, not lacking in money or fame, and only had higher pursuits in his career.

In order to win the award, he no longer wants to play a cool character and starts to play ugly. Actors can impress the Oscar judges even more. At this time, he would never have thought that he would start a long journey of running around, and it would not be done until 10 years later.

Liang Kun didn't know how to help Li Zi win the Best Actor in advance, but it was beneficial to take on the mission. He had a permanent prop to see images of specific objects...
