Entertainment: Start with Succubus and play Hollywood - Chapter 40On the back seat of the car, a middle-aged man with a slightly Jewish character, with a fat head and big ears, looked at it and revealed a seemingly cheeky smile:
"Mr. Zhou's restaurant, it seems that this kid likes Chinese food."
Saying that, he had already pushed the car door and got out of the car.
At the door of the restaurant, Martin's agent, Jeff, was already waiting.
Seeing the fat man coming over, he quickly stepped forward, and the two came to a big hug, like good friends who had not seen each other for many years.
In fact, before this, the two basically did not intersect, although they were all mixed in this circle, and they didn't look up when they looked down, but they could only barely be regarded as nodding friends.
"Harvey, Martin is already waiting in the box, let's go in."
"Wow, I can't wait to meet our little genius, when I saw this script, I was shocked that an eleven-year-old child could write such a script full of loneliness and family affection, which is worthy of genius!"
Harvey Weinstein complimented Martin in front of Jeff without blushing.
Before this person did not float, his reputation in Hollywood was actually good, gentle and frugal.
So, human nature is only revealed when you reach your peak.
Because at that time, there were very few people around who could make you restrain.
Mr. Zhou's restaurant is one of the few restaurants in the United States with a private room, probably because of its Chinese heritage.
Martin settled on the Chunhua Room, a very magnificently decorated banquet hall in line with the Chinese style of the American people.
Pushing open the door of the box, Harvey Weinstein saw a handsome young man with a calm temperament get up from the sofa and walk towards him.
This is Martin Meyers? More handsome and temperamental than in the photos!
A smile immediately appeared on Harvey's face, and before Martin was ready to come over and shake his hand, he took two steps forward and held out his hand first.
"You're Mr. Martin, hello, I'm Harvey Weinstein from Miramaxfilm."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Harvey Weinstein."
Jeff then walked in and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk!" "
Martin smiled and guided Harvey, the guest, to sit down like an adult before returning to his seat.
Harvey was amazed in his heart, this kid was really... Unlike children, are geniuses precocious?
After the three sat down, Martin was not in a hurry to talk about the script, but rang the bell to summon the waiter.
The waiter's black eyes, black hair and yellow skin should be a Chinese descent, judging by his behavior and temperament, maybe he is still an international student working here.
From the early 90s to 2010, Chinese college students regarded studying abroad as the best way out, and many college students from top Chinese universities came to the United States from the other side.
Then I found that it didn't seem as good as I thought, employment difficulties, rising ceilings, racial discrimination... But the people have already come, and they are embarrassed to flee back to the country in ashes, so they can only grit their teeth and insist.
For the sake of face, they also had to try to beautify the situation here when communicating with relatives, friends and classmates in China to show that their choice was right.
Martin and the waiter chatted briefly in Chinese, this is indeed an international student, graduated from the top Mizuki University in China, but can only find part-time jobs such as serving dishes and dishwashers here, without connections and friends.
The same domestic students as him basically walked three ways——
One is to curry favor with the local white students and serve as a follower to get some resources.
Second, their own people huddle, try not to contact with the locals, play their own, this group of people are basically rooted, have money and resources, live without worry, so there is no need to bow their heads.
Third, there are no roots, and I can't pull my face to mix circles, so I can only rely on myself. Most of these people will work in Chinatown or other Chinese restaurants during their studies, endure exploitation, and it is also difficult to find jobs after graduation, some really can't stick to returning to China, and some are eventually smoothed out by reality and become the first kind of people.
Of course, the above is all about the generation of immigrants.
If it is those second-generation immigrants, the fathers have worked hard, and the language and customs have been completely Westernized, that is, what we commonly call banana people, this kind of situation will be better, but it is also limited.
All in all, Chinese immigrants who want to get ahead in the United States, either have good connections, or excel, or are willing to be dogs!
The waiter who graduated from Mizuki University in front of him is obviously not, so he can only serve the plate.
(PS: Actually, there is a fourth way, but the author does not dare to write. )
After some conversation, the Chinese waiter left the private room with a surprised look, this American child speaks Chinese very well!
Harvey also looked at Martin in amazement and said, "Martin, you can still speak Chinese!" "
"Yes, it will be a little bit, you know "Kung Fu Panda", when I first wrote this book, I thought that the protagonists were - lions, cheetahs, dogs, cats, and finally chose pandas, because I like Chinese culture."
"You are too modest, looking at the way you chat with that Huaxia waiter, it doesn't look like it's just a little bit."
Martin's shy smile, with the shyness of a young man, made Harvey happy in his heart, it seems that compliments are useful, Martin Meyers is no matter how genius, after all, he is just a child.
But soon, he regretted the idea.
As the American specialties of Chinese cuisine were served, the three began to communicate about the script.
It was mainly Jeff and Harvey talking, but every time Martin interjected at a key point, inexplicably, Harvey was at a disadvantage in the negotiations.
This kid is a demon!
Harvey wiped the cold sweat from his head.
"Martin, can you talk about your original intention or inspiration for this script?"
After all, Harvey is an old quack, and when he saw that the situation was not right, he cunningly changed the topic.
Martin smiled slightly, wanting to change the subject, no way!!
He showed a look of memory and said slowly: "The original intention? Inspiration? "
"Put it this way, Mr. Weinstein, you should also see that although I positioned this script as a thriller and suspense theme, in fact, this is actually a family ethics film with warmth."
"You know I've seen a lot of movies that I shouldn't have seen at my age, such as horror movies - American, Europa, Dongying, Kimchi Country, Thailand, Xiangjiang, etc., I find that there is a big difference between Eastern and Western horror films."
"Western horror films use a large amount of plasma and brutal destruction of human bodies to make the audience feel frightened, while the East will pay more attention to the creation of atmosphere and environmental horror." I classify the first category as visual horror films and the second category as psychological horror films. "
"So I thought, can we Westerners accept this kind of psychological horror film?"
"At the same time, when I watch horror films in Heungjiang and Thailand, I find that there are many other elements that can be added to horror films – comedy elements, family elements, action elements."
"So I added a little bit of family to the script."
"After the first draft was finished, I read it myself and felt that something was still missing."
"I happened to be watching Sherlock Holmes, so I added some suspense elements to it, and I completed the script."
