reborn in the fiery age

Sun Zujie didn't know what the chief was thinking, so he would definitely complain a few words if he knew it. I'm a professional ninth-dan, shouldn't it be right to be a referee and give some pointers?

He helped the chess team to start this group arena, the sponsorship fee was paid by the bus, and the Huatou department sponsored the group arena heroes. Then Mr. Shiguang came to see the poor state of the chess academy and asked someone to help repair the chess academy.

After three things in a row, can Qiyuan be unhappy, can it not be grateful, so isn't it normal to be invited?Sun Zujie was very curious and wanted to watch Nie Sheng's game, and this was the scene where he was the referee.

However, a lot of things have changed a lot after his disturbance. For example, a 17-year-old chess player named Li Xiaoqiang in Huaixi won five consecutive victories, which surprised him. The key is why this chess style is so tough. , there are people in my hometown!

Then Uesugi from the Wa country finally played. At this time, Uesugi, who has already achieved great success, is recognized by the Wa country as a super first-class chess player.Uesugi stopped the young Xiaoqiang with a mature performance, and then he won six consecutive victories all the way with a big knife, and hacked to the door of Nie Sheng's house.

So Sun Zujie watched this classic battle with his own eyes as a referee.At the critical moment, Nie Shengchao, who was about the same age as Sun Zujie, played at a level and blocked Uesugi. The game was so exciting that Sun Zujie couldn't help joining the discussion after it was over.

Although he has been away from the arena for many years, his reputation is still circulating, so Sun Zujie can comment complacently.

He smiled and said to Uesugi, "Uesugi-kun, after today's game of chess, I think you must have found a way to move on, remember that your position should be above the Sixth Super League, not as famous as them, you have such a Strength."

"Hi! I will definitely keep working hard!"

Sun Zujie said to Nie Sheng in the tone of a senior again, "Your peak period came a bit late, but it should be soon after this game of chess. But Xiao Nie, you must know that an excellent chess player should know how to control his desires. I hope you can guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and maintain the peak period for a few more years!"

Sun Zujie can criticize and point out Nie Sheng without hesitation. This is because even now, Nie Sheng has not achieved the results he achieved when he was 15 years old, so Nie Sheng may never become a chess master in his life. good thing.

After Sun Zujie commented on the two, he called Xiaoqiang, the score planner, to his side. Looking at the excited children, Sun Zujie said gently, "Xiaoqiang, there are too few domestic competitions, which has affected your progress. You should go abroad to study."

Sun Zujie turned to Uesugi again and said, "Uesugi, please make arrangements to take Xiaoqiang to Japan to study for a few years, so that he can hone his shortcomings as soon as possible."

After saying this, Sun Zujie seemed a little sad and said, "I feel a little sad when I see you, and I will watch less chess in the future. If there is no such accident, I can still play chess, how wonderful it would be!"

After explaining for a while, after pretending to be coercive, Sun Zujie immediately suppressed his smile, pretended to be a little disappointed and left.Only three people were left looking at his back, silently thinking what would happen if Sun Zujie was still playing chess?

Chapter 338 Value

Zhang Guowu thought for a while, he shouldn't be too anxious, don't be afraid that he will be scared away.So after thinking about it, I started another topic, "How about your gorgeous co-production movie? For you, you actually transferred a teacher. It's really not doing your job properly."

Sun Zujie said unconvinced, "Boss, this is a pure market behavior. He's International paid 1000 million Hong Kong dollars for that teacher. Why didn't you complain when you collected the money?"

Zhang Guowu was a little embarrassed after hearing this, he forgot about it.He glared, "You brat, spending money is like running water, a movie costing tens of millions of dollars, you are really willing.

Our country is the major shareholder of Heshi International, if you are going to lose money, how do you explain it? "

"Don't worry, we will never lose money on this movie, but will make a lot of money."

The leader asked curiously, "Could it be possible that you still make movies?"

"Sir, of course I don't know how to make movies. The reason why I am sure that movies will make money is because of the word Shangri-La."

The reason why Sun Zujie is so confident, and the reason why his gorgeous co-production film project can catch the big fish of Warner is also because of the word Shangri-La.

In the eyes of Westerners, Shangri-La is a utopia, an ideal country, representing a beautiful, remote and sacred place.The beautiful and mysterious Shangri-La appeared on the big screen for the first time. Can foreigners come and take a look at such a movie?

The second is that martial arts movies in Hong Kong Island are good at hanging steel wires. The martial arts action design is much more elegant than the hard bridge and hard horse in Europe and America in this era, and it will definitely attract the attention of many people.

Then there is a big scene played by the People's Liberation Army of a division in Huaguo, which finally made the dream of Western filmmakers who were envious of Lao Maozi's Liberation series finally come true this time.

The last thing is the special effects of the movie. The electronic engineers in the Tianyi Group formed a team of interested people, equipped with the best computers now. Of course, due to the reasons of the times, at this time, some special effects can only be used on some parts to make the picture as beautiful as possible. magnificent.

Of course, if these four effects are taken away, it will be a bad Hollywood adventure movie, which is not uncommon at all.But this kind of bad street stuff is precisely the one with the widest audience.

It's just that since such a movie has special effects and helicopter aerial photography, the cost is of course gone, so in order to reduce the cost, the He's Fund had to use unknown American young actors as the leading actors, of course the male A handsome woman can't escape her beauty.

Anyway, this is a quasi-scenic film, selling scenery. If everyone goes to see the stars, who will watch the scenery, so the publicity is the gimmick of Shangri-La and the first gorgeous co-production movie. As for who the actors are, apart from a few Other than the photos, there's not much publicity at all.

Of course, it’s not easy to do all of this. Sun Zujie doesn’t have that much capital to let those directors he doesn’t know take his money to shoot things he doesn’t know, so he found Cameron at the beginning. The money is great, but it is definitely worth the money and will not disappoint the owner.

Cameron was just filming the first failed Virgo, he was unknown, and he was trying to get people to invest in Terminator, but no one liked him.

When the Wo Foundation worked hard to find him, although Cameron was very interested, he was worried that Warner would not accept him as the director. In addition, he was too busy to let him go because of the Terminator.

Sun Zujie made Heshi Fund promise to invest in the Terminator regardless of whether Warner liked him or not, and signed a formal agreement with him, so that Cameron agreed, anyway, it would be postponed for a year or two. He really has no reason for such a good thing reject.

Warner felt incredible that he had hired a truck driver, and of course he was unwilling to give him such a project that they valued so much.

However, the negotiator of the Heshi Fund told Warner that what we sell is a landscape film, let's let this guy take the landscape shots and make a documentary first, and see the effect, and the money will be paid by Hua Fang.

Warner had nothing to lose when he heard it, so of course he agreed. At this time, Cameron had almost accumulated, and the scenery he showed left Warner with nothing to say.

In this way, Cameron finally became a director and started his own legendary road.Of course, Cameron’s bad habit of procrastinating for the first time has not yet been developed, and spending money is normal, so Warner’s producer watched, and Hong Kong Island’s assistant director Martial Artist helped design the martial arts. The film was finally released on time, and the total cost of filming was about 1000 million US dollars. This was also in China, where prices were very low.

Although Cameron thinks it can be more perfect, both Jiang Zhiqiang and Warner are very satisfied with the shot. I don’t know the story of this movie, but the picture is absolutely beautiful. Based on this, there is a high probability that the cost will be recouped.

"Mr. Sun, how do you know about this director?

I really never thought that a truck driver in the United States has such a high level? "

When Sun Zujie got off the plane, Jiang Zhiqiang couldn't wait to ask him as soon as he picked him up.

"My friend in the United States introduced him, saying that although this person is not well-known, he is definitely full of talent. You know, some people have to buy face."

After finishing speaking, Sun Zujie pretended to be a little curious and asked, "Is it really that good?"

Jiang Zhiqiang nodded without thinking, "Mr. Sun, the filming was really good. We will definitely make money this time, and it will be a lot of money."

"Is it really that exaggerated? This time we spent so much money, but the bulk of the revenue went to Warner.

According to the agreement, half of our shooting cost was more than 500 US dollars.However, except for the 20.00% of the box office in the North American market, we only obtained all the revenue from the Japanese and Southeast Asian markets.

Calculated in this way, plus taxes, the North American box office must be at least 500 million US dollars in order to protect our capital. Are you really so confident? "

"Mr. Sun, I didn't say this sentence, it was the president of Warner who said it. Now they regret the conditions they agreed to us."

In the beginning, the He Foundation contacted Hollywood through the Jiang family's relationship. Unexpectedly, there were many interested parties. After hearing about it, Warner became interested.

However, Sun Zujie’s descendants have heard about how Hollywood bullies overseas investors.

So Sun Zujie put forward quite harsh conditions. In addition to the Far East market, he also wanted a [-]% share of the U.S. imperial box office, such information with clear data.

Of course, the premise is that he voluntarily gave up a lot of things such as video tapes, TV networks and other big profits and copyrights.Even so, Warner didn't agree. They thought the Hua people were too ridiculous to ask for so much.

However, Sun Zujie did not budge. The exclusive subject of Shangri-La will definitely make money. Why did I let it so much? In the end, Warner heard that the film could be listed in Huaguo, so they reluctantly accepted most of the conditions of Heshi International. Of course, the box office share became 20.00 %20.00, and the remaining [-]% goes to Warner.

Huaguo is a virgin land, and Shaolin Temple's [-] million box office let them see the potential of the Huaguo market. In addition, Sun Zujie was able to get a master to assist in the filming, which made them see the great energy of the collaborators, so for the future , Warner backed down.

"Did something happen, or the movie hasn't been released yet, what do they regret?"

"In order for Cameron to be the director, we paid for the documentary by ourselves. Some TV stations paid us $550 million. I am ready to sign a contract with them."

Sun Zujie was dumbfounded, "The emperor of the United States is really too proud, he is really too rich!"

Sun Zujie had to be convinced, the richness of American Emperor Television Station, if it received the 550 million, wouldn't Huatou recover its capital?
