Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 187 Film Shooting Plan
Douglaston, New York.

Still in Mr. Eisen's study, the two sat opposite each other.

"If there really were succubi in this world, they would definitely look like you," Mr. Eisen said jokingly, "You've been making subtle insinuations against Korean culture, yet the media is still praising you."

"Luck, it's just luck." Lin Yuan replied.

"Don't rely on luck for everything. Then how do you explain why Samsung Group immediately changed its stance after you went to Seoul?

"When it comes to huge investments, there's no room for leniency or luck," Mr. Eisen asked.

"Maybe it really is a matter of favoritism and luck?" Lin Yuan replied.

What he said was true. Lee Boo-jin bet everything on him, and it had to be said that favor and luck played a big role.

"Lee Boo-jin is very beautiful, right? Can she resist your charm?" Mr. Eisen suddenly showed a smile that all men understand.

"No matter how beautiful she is, she is much older than me. And she is already married." Lin Yuan guessed what he wanted to say.

"Isn't it more exciting for a man to have a married woman? Are you really not tempted at all? This is a great opportunity to gain both wealth and beauty!"

After we got to know each other better, Mr. Eisen became less and less serious. The serious look of a traditional old gentleman that he had when we first met was completely gone.

"I am a person with a bottom line. I'd rather forget about having an affair involving a third party and destroying other people's marriages," said Lin Yuan.

"Then I don't know why Samsung Group offers such good conditions." Mr. Eisen handed an agreement to Lin Yuan.

Although the intention was reached by Lin Yuan and Lee Boo-jin at the Shilla Hotel, the specific agreement was still handled by Mr. Eisen.

Lin Yuan flipped through a few pages and roughly understood the content, which mainly included two points:

Samsung Group, as a major shareholder, agreed to the fund's $20 billion investment.

In addition to the fund investment, Samsung Group will also invest another US$80 billion in the subsequent US$20 billion fund raising.

It can be said that this has solved most of the problems in fund raising.

No wonder Mr. Eisen felt that things were going so smoothly.

All things are difficult at the beginning. After solving the initial funding problem, the subsequent work will become smoother and smoother under the influence of inertia. This is the importance of gathering momentum.

Lin Yuan was not comfortable discussing the private agreement between Lee Boo-jin and him, so he asked, "The initial funding has been secured, and I'll leave the subsequent projects to you."

"You can't just sit back and do nothing. Although I've found professional managers for you, you need to interact with them more to get to know them better.

On the other hand, you also need to consider selecting a suitable person to help you supervise." Mr. Eisen said.

For the Oriental Film and Television Platform project, Mr. Aisen helped Lin Yuan find two professional managers, who were responsible for the two major project directions, Fanyu Film and Television City and CBD respectively.

In these two projects, the most important thing for candidates is loyalty, while ability is not that important.

After all, Lin Yuan has already planned the direction forward, and all he has to do is proceed step by step.

Loyalty comes from recognition and supervision, both of which are indispensable.

Lin Yuan needs to gain more recognition from these two professional managers, and at the same time he also needs to provide necessary supervision over them. By taking these two approaches together, he will be able to firmly control the company.

"There really isn't enough time!" Lin Yuan sighed again, "I still have a lot of movies to shoot."

"The two movies haven't even started filming yet, and you've added another one. I really don't know if you're busy enough to handle it," said Mr. Eisen.

The new one is a movie customized by Lin Yuan for Liu Yufei. The shooting location is in China and it will be filmed after the two Hollywood movies.

"Of course it will work. You know I've always been very efficient in filming movies." Lin Yuan said with certainty.

Mr. Eisen nodded. The most difficult and time-consuming part of shooting an action movie has always been the exciting action scenes. But these difficulties seemed to be non-existent in front of Lin Yuan.

Other crews may have to shoot an action scene for a week and still not be satisfied with it, but Lin Yuan can usually finish it in just one or two scenes, and the results are amazing.

This can indeed save a lot of time, and time is money. As a result, the production cost of the entire project has been reduced a lot because of Lin Yuan.

"Let's not talk about the domestic film for now. How are the other two films being planned?" Lin Yuan asked.

"'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest' has to wait for cooperation from Disney, so the filming time will be slightly delayed, tentatively scheduled for the end of this year," said Mr. Eisen.

"It's this damn time again. It's really uncomfortable to jump into the sea in the middle of winter!" Lin Yuan complained.

He recalled the experience of filming in the freezing sea water last winter when a cold wave swept south.

Even with his physique, it was a bit too much for him, let alone Depp and Anne, who really suffered a lot.

However, the underwater scenes in "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" do not involve Depp and Anne much, and are mainly played by Lin Yuan.

It seems that he will suffer alone this time.

"What about "The King of Spy"? " Lin Yuan asked.

The spy war movie that Lin Yuan wants to shoot is tentatively named "The King of Spy".

This movie was a major revision of the script of Tom Cruise's later hit movie "Mission Impossible 4".

The most important change is Lin Yuan’s identity.

The protagonist in the original script was a CIA agent, which was definitely not suitable for Lin Yuan.

He didn't want to play a character working for the American intelligence agencies in the movie.

Spy means intelligence.

"The King of Spy" happens to be Lin Yuan's role in the play.

Lin Yuan's identity was changed to a third-party intelligence dealer.

He is a private intelligence expert who makes a living by selling various intelligence.

During an intelligence transaction, he was unfortunately involved in a fatal crisis.

He was plotted against and was blamed for stealing absolutely forbidden information.

Governments around the world are hunting him down, but the real murderer is using him to attract attention and hide behind the scenes.

In order to clear his suspicion, Lin Yuan had to catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

However, in the process of tracking down the murderer, he discovered the shocking conspiracy of the mastermind behind the scenes.

In this story, the top brass of the American intelligence agencies are the real villains.

Like "Rambo", using high-ranking officials as villains is a common tactic, but American audiences are particularly fond of it.

The script has been confirmed, so Lin Yuan wants to know when filming can begin.

"I was just about to tell you this. The director and the cast of important roles are waiting for you to finalize," said Mr. Eisen.

"Let me decide?" Lin Yuan was a little confused.
