Chapter 109: Cooperation Opportunity and New Movie
Chapter 110 Cooperation Opportunity and New Movie (10,000 words complete! Requesting monthly votes!)
In a separate room in the hotel, Giorno, now dressed in black, sat upright on the sofa.
Although the style of his black outfit is the same as the purple one he wore before.
They're all equally flamboyant.
Sitting opposite him, Fang Bie crossed his legs and spoke first: "Mr. Joestar, no, Mr. Joebana, I wonder what brings you here?"
Although he really liked Giorno Giovanna from the original anime, that was, after all, an anime from his previous life. This parallel world counterpart was just a stranger with the same name, similar appearance, and somewhat similar experiences.
After dealing with the Su family, Yoshikage Kira, Chen Yongren, and the others, Fang Bie finally understood things.
These people may have a hidden side to their personalities that is unknown to others, but in this peaceful world, they are just ordinary strangers.
That's it.
Therefore, he wouldn't feel particularly excited.
Of course, if his fictional wives from his past life were to appear, that would be a different story.
But at most, I'd just ask for a photo and an autograph.
Giorno across from him nodded slightly, speaking respectfully: "Mr. Fang, you may also call me Shioka Hatsuru. My mother is also from the East, Japan."
He pointed to his blond hair and said helplessly, "This place is rather xenophobic, especially towards us Easterners, so we have no choice but to be this way."
As is well known, the homeland in this parallel world was the complete victor, so there are also troops stationed there in Japan.
And as everyone knows, the soldiers of our motherland are not like the soldiers of the United States who talk nonsense.
Therefore, the people of Japan in this world clearly have a stronger sense of kinship with their homeland.
vice versa.
So Giorno is trying to close the distance between the two.
He is a calm and collected person who is good at observing and thinking.
When they first met, Fang Qian could tell that Fang Bie seemed to have a good impression of him. Although he didn't know why Fang Bie looked at him with a strange sense of familiarity, it didn't stop him from using this to get closer to him.
After all, we need their help.
"Hmm." Fang Bie remained noncommittal. "Then what exactly does Mr. Giovanna want?"
They can't expect me to help them find arrows, can they?
The other person looked to be in their twenties, and even if the incident that ended within nine days did happen, it must have been at least eight years ago.
Besides, there are no superhumans in this world.
Why would the other person contact me?
Giorno spoke calmly and respectfully: "Mr. Fang, it was Mr. Smith who introduced me to your film 'Shadow of Light,' which greatly inspired me."
Giorno, who always found Kira Yoshikage's movies rather odd, clicked his tongue and asked, "So?"
"I was abused by my mother and stepfather, and I was in despair. But someone from an organization saved me. He said we were both from the East, so he didn't want me to go astray," Giorno said, recounting his past. "Later I found out he was an undercover agent from China, working to combat drugs. I learned Mandarin from him. Italians idolize football superstars, but I'm different. That person was my superstar. So I had a dream: I wanted to be a superstar among thugs."
He paused, then continued, "It's been over ten years since I became the boss of 'Passion.' Under my leadership, the drug trade had gradually reached a dead end, so I led everyone to start a clothing company to support our families. But..."
"But Italy's economy is deteriorating, and the organization is gradually becoming unable to make ends meet, so many people have started to have bad intentions again. But I can't say anything because they all have families to support. So Mr. Fang, I want to fund a movie for you to make, a superhero movie that belongs to Italy. I want them to understand that the Italian mafia is no longer the thugs of the past."
Italian gangster films: Golden Wind or The Godfather?
However, Fang Bie has forgotten almost everything.
Or how about making an Italian version of "Election" or "Young and Dangerous"?
He shook his head: "Mr. Giovanna, thank you for your kind offer, but I have no plans to make any more movies recently."
Eating, drinking, and having fun here is a way for everyone to relax after the second movie ends.
Anyway, he never thought about winning an award.
After we finished playing, we'd pat our butts and go back to play games while watching the young lady finish catching up on the songs.
Isn’t it wonderful?
Making a movie?
What's the point?
And being exposed to the wind and sun every day is simply a waste of time.
Giorno remained calm; he wasn't one to wear his emotions on his sleeve. "Then, would you grant me another request?"
Fang Bie nodded: "Tell me about it."
Giorno turned his gaze to Su Mulin, who was sitting quietly next to Fang Bie as a foil: "As a fashion designer, I have long admired Miss Su. I wonder if I could give 'Passion' a chance to collaborate with Tiffany."
Since cost-cutting is not an option for the time being, we have no choice but to open source.
Tiffany is a top-tier luxury brand internationally, and "Passion" could greatly benefit its own development by partnering with Tiffany.
Moreover, judging from the close relationship between this Miss Su and Fang Bie, it's possible to use this connection to get in touch with Fang Bie later.
That's right, his ultimate goal was still to get Fang Bie to make a movie.
His biggest concern is to completely reverse the public's perception of the "Passion" organization.
To reverse this image, the organization must first stop treating itself as a rogue.
Therefore, they need to be given a source of emotional support.
The "father of superhero movies" also created an Italian superhero film, whose background was also from the mafia.
Through this subtle and gradual influence, their image might be able to be reversed.
Giorno has an idol in his heart, which is the policeman who went undercover in the mafia.
He also wanted to become that kind of person.
However, the Italian police force was corrupt, and he had joined the organization at the age of fifteen, so he could only change the organization from within.
Fang Bie wasn't moved by him, but he was willing to support other people's dreams.
So instead of saying no, he turned to Su Murin and asked, "Murin, what do you think?"
But the young lady is really amazing. It seems that her talent is not as simple as she said, that she has only designed a few clothes.
To be known and admired by an Italian fashion designer, Miss Su is terrifyingly so.
You're so talented in music and fashion design, why did you choose to become a big star?
They even wanted to drag me into making a movie.
It's one thing to film, but hopefully she'll stop thinking about becoming an actress.
She really doesn't have that talent.
Su Mulin nodded: "Okay, I'll contact my family later and ask. They might send someone to Italy to investigate. If there aren't any major problems, it wouldn't be a problem for you to 'enthusiastically' become Tiffany's Italian general agent."
This way, I can do Fang Bie a favor and help him build connections in Europe.
Moreover, some European countries—no, I should say all countries—both have a mixture of respect and fear for their motherland.
They respect your money and power, but they also fear the same things.
So in such xenophobic places, it's not bad to have a local strongman acting as a buffer.
Su Mulin never refuses a win-win situation.
"In that case, I won't disturb your rest any longer." Giorno stood up and handed over his business card with both hands. "Mr. Fang, if you need anything, please feel free to contact me. This is my private phone number. In Italy, there may be things the police can't do, but there's nothing 'passion' can't do."
After Giorno left, everyone crowded into Fang Bie's room.
Liu Mang found it rather strange: "Old Fang, why not make it? Anyway, those guys who control the narrative in the domestic film and television industry don't like us, so why don't we have a Sino-Italian co-production to slap them in the face?"
Although Fang told him that she didn't think much of the Golden Phoenix Award and that the timing conflicted with the Venice Film Festival, she didn't go.
But Liu Mang was still unhappy.
None of your movies are any good!
Do you think you're qualified to suppress Fang Bie?
Fang Bie is unlike him; a talented person with impeccable morals can do well anywhere.
"There will be opportunities for collaboration in the future." Fang Bie rubbed his temples. "I already owe someone a movie in Hollywood, and now I'm owing them another one in Italy. So when do you think I can finally relax?"
I still need to play games.
"Oh, right, there's something else I wanted to tell you."
Fang Bie patted Liu Mang on the shoulder: "You'll be directing the next movie, I'm not doing it anymore."
Liu Mang followed him around for two movies, helping him out but doing more harm than good. He noticed this.
Fang Bie was originally waiting for Liu Mang, that fat guy, to bring it up himself, but the guy remained silent, so he had no choice but to take the initiative himself.
And this might even be a trap.
Liu Mang was quite excited: "Really?!"
Then he immediately realized, "No! Where are you going? Are you planning to go to Hollywood and abandon us?"
"I'm not going to Hollywood, you idiot!" Fang Bie said irritably. "This is because I trust you, and it's not good for you to be without any official status. I'll give you a permanent position, okay?"
I saw the news on the plane yesterday, which said Liu Mang was a "troublesome fat passerby".
Although it was quite funny, upon closer reflection, Fang Bie also felt sorry for Liu Mang.
He was busy with the production of both films, doing much more work than Fang Bie, the main person in charge, but in the end, all the credit went to Fang Bie.
Although he didn't actually want these things, he still felt quite sorry for Liu Mang.
Liu Mang finally felt relieved: "So, what's the next movie? Lao Fang, you can't leave me out of the script stuff!"
After experiencing setbacks, he then worked with two different film crews.
Liu Mang is not worried about his directing skills now.
But what he was worried about was the script.
Without a different script, they could only make a popcorn movie with special effects.
Although they themselves had no idea how badly their clumsy actions had "tricked" them.
Fang Bie shrugged: "You can figure out the detailed script yourselves, but I can give you a core idea."
"What's the thought process?"
"A science fiction film with only one main character. It has only one theme: 'I go back in time, fall in love with myself, give birth to myself, kill myself, and am killed by myself.'"
Liu Mang looked completely bewildered: "What do you mean?"
Fang Bie smiled slightly: "Figure it out yourself."
I don't know what it means, but I think I saw a similar movie in my past life. I've forgotten most of the plot, but I still remember the core idea.
Anyway, this movie has nothing to do with me, you guys go have fun.
"Who should we cast?"
"I."
Miss Su spoke up: "I'm very interested. I'll star in this movie."
Liu Mang opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
He had experienced Miss Su's acting skills firsthand; she couldn't even play a corpse properly!
Is she going to be the lead actress now?
He gave Fang Bie a resentful look; no wonder Old Fang wasn't directing this time.
Su Mulin seemed oblivious to this, pointing away and saying, "He's the male lead this time, and the theme of this movie is science fiction romance."
Since you don't have the courage to confess your feelings yet, then make it happen in a movie!
As for the film's quality, with its core message being unique, how could it be bad?
Her faith in others had almost reached the level of blind faith.
Fang Bie: "."
What's going on? Miss, are you messing with me?!
I woke up from a nap in the afternoon and my anus was ruptured twice in a row. It hurts!
