Reborn Capital Madman

After the peanut stewing activity came to an end, Yi Huirong and Wu Zhibing were about to return to Canada.

Gao Xian asked Yi Huirong, "The 27th of this month is the Spring Festival. When will you go back to Xiangjiang?"

Yi Huirong replied hesitantly: "I don't want to go back anymore. Canada is quieter and just happens to concentrate on her studies."

Seeing Gao Xian's face showing regret, Wu Zhibing quipped: "If you can't bear to leave, just walk around Canada frequently."

Gao Xian thought about it again and again, even if Yi Huirong is in Canada, she can save herself a little worry if she has no competitors to worry about it.

When they parted at the airport, Gao Xian unexpectedly saw that Chen Xiangmei had also come, and she looked inseparable from Yi Huirong.

Gao Xian couldn't help but wonder. "When did the friendship between these two people be so good?"

However, this was not difficult for Gao Xian. After listening to the content of the conversation for a while, he understood the general reason.

Chen Xiangmei's grandfather Liao Fengshu is brothers with revolutionary founder Liao Zhongkai; Liao Chengzhi, son of Liao Zhongkai, is an important leader in China's overseas Chinese affairs.

Yi Huirong's father Yi Mingzhe has a close relationship with the senior executives of Yanjing; how is his relationship with Liao Chengzhi? Just look at the origin of the famous garden hotel in Yangcheng and you will know what is it.

Gao Xian suddenly realized that in addition to "the world is big and the circle is small", how can the "temple" and "jianghu" be so clear? In the final analysis, it must be implemented in terms of connections and value.

Chen Xiangmei, who was versatile, also said kindly to Gao Xian: "In the future, if David needs my help if he needs anything, just speak up and don't be polite."

Although he knew that he could not help for nothing, Gao Xian still said sincerely: "Then I will thank Ms. Chen in advance."

...

Yi Huirong and Wu Zhibing returned to Canada by plane. Gao Xian did not stop too much when stewing peanuts, and took the plane directly from the East Coast of the United States to the West Coast of the United States.

Gao Xian is in Los Angeles, and there are many things to deal with.

First of all, the US Ministry of Commerce will officially announce the implementation of a quota system for Asian textiles in the past few days, and Gao Xian will wait for the moment when the boots land at the office of the Xiangjiang Cotton Textile Industry Association.

Secondly, Huanyu Electronics and Ruixia, the general agent of the United States, have to discuss the next step of cooperation.

In addition, there is an independent film that has been filmed most of the time but has to be "cold" and waited for Gaoxian to decide whether to find a bargain.

This is not the end. Trivial matters such as taking Linda and her children to Xiangjiang to reunite with Li Xiaolong are not rare.

In Gaoyi American Company, which is adjacent to the Xiangjiang Cotton Textile Industry Association Office, Zhou Wenyao sent a photo frame, "Boss, according to the size requirements you explained, the photo frame has been made."

Gao Xian took out a few photos, firstly framed himself and Nixon's photo carefully.

"Is this the President of the United States?" Zhou Wenyao was very surprised. Although he knew that his boss had gone to the White House for a banquet, he could not have thought that he could bring such a reputation back.

Gao Xian pointed to the photo and asked with a smile: "Can you suppress evil?"

Zhou Wenyao nodded repeatedly, "Not only can heal evil, but he can also attract wealth."

Gao Xian was amused and laughed. He didn't believe that the Americans were the three friends of the Han Dynasty. It was just that the admiration of the powerful and the authority was a different form.

At this time, the front desk called to report that a filmmaker named Tom Laughlin came to find the boss.

Zhou Wenyao said: "Boss, this Tom Laughlin is the western star you told me to find."

"However, I have repeatedly verified that the movie "Billy Jack" that Tom Laughlin is producing has been abandoned by the US International Film Company and Twentieth Century Fox. The boss should be cautious."

"We will have a chance if others don't like it." Gao Xian sighed and asked uncertainly: "Is "Billy Jack" so disgusted? Isn't even given at least a chance to complete the production?"

Zhou Wenyao replied in a positive tone: "The two film companies did withdraw from the middle of the filming. It is said that the difference is that there are too many violent elements and the subject matter involved is not likable."

"This is a kung fu movie, and there is much violence?" Gao Xian raised his brow and thought to himself, were these senior executives in Hollywood so squeezed that they even squinted their heads by the rise of the TV industry.

Gao Xian ordered Zhou Wenyao to pay special attention to "Billy Jack" because he knew that this movie was the prelude to Li Xiaolong's kung fu film before shocking Hollywood.

"Billy Jack" is also a kung fu film, but it is just "Aikido" kung fu. It tells the story of a **** named Billy Jack who uses "Aikido" kung fu to stand up for justice.

If there is anything special about "Billy Jack", it is that its protagonist, Billy Jack, is rarely set as an American native Indianavajo, which is the Hollywood movie "The Whisperer" directed by John Woo

Yes, the tribe that uses the mysterious language of this clan to convey military intelligence.

Another special thing is that Billy Jack stood up for his unfair goal and was an "anti-mainstream" student in a relatively closed school. Because these children were humiliated and bullied by evil forces, Billy Jack stood up and killed him.

.

The reason why the executives in Hollywood look down on Billy Jack is that this movie is rather alternative. It just takes the American natives who were almost killed during the colonial period as the protagonist, but they are still "anti-mainstream"

.

This is the difference between Gaoxian and Hollywood's perspective. He can see that the "counter-mainstream" culture that defeated the authoritative world is indeed prevalent at this stage. One of the manifestations of the United States is to force the attitude towards the Vietnam War.

The original "active participation in the war" turned into "resolute anti-war".

The box office of "Billy Jack" for more than 30 million US dollars shows its market value.

You should know that the box office annual championship record of this era is still quite far from 100 million US dollars.

Perhaps, the "anti-mainstream" of "Billy Jack" will really make the United States environment disharmonious, but what does this have to do with Gao Xian, who is an outsider? He only needs to return on investment and accumulate funds quickly.

When I met Tom Laughlin, a western star, Gao Xian told the other party straight to the point, "The reason why I am interested in "Billy Jack" written, directed and acted by you is because I have invested in it.

I want to touch the market from "Billy Jack" in a kung fu film."

Tom Laughlin's eyes turned away from Gao Xian's photo with Nixon, and nodded, "I understand. The budget for "Billy Jack" is 800,000 US dollars, if Gao is willing to invest 100,000 US dollars.

, can get 15% of the box office return."

Gao Xian said with displeasure: "Laughlin, are you bullying me? Don't you understand the situation? The director, screenwriter, and the hero are all you, and the heroine is your wife Taylor, you

Tell me about the shooting budget, there is really a lot of elastic space."

"In addition, there must be a reason why the US International Film Company and 20th Century Fox gave up "Billy Jack" one after another, and I have to consider the risks."

"Perhaps you can tell me that the other investors you found before coming to me were kind and generous."

Tom Laughlin's waist collapsed slightly, and he lowered his voice and asked, "So, what are the conditions for high?"

Gao Xian said without any doubt: "Give me a box office return of 30% and after signing the contract, you can take away the check of 100,000 US dollars on the spot."

“In other words, the speed at which you get the money you need to restart Billy Jack depends on how quickly you figure out the stakes.”

Tom Laughlin struggled for a moment, and finally nodded and surrendered: "Okay, just follow the high requirements."

Looking at Tom Laughlin's back as the lawyer left, Gao Xian said to himself with regret for Ma Yongda who was staying in Hong Kong at this time: "Brother Yongda, you are so interested in movies, but why do you always miss opportunities.

Woolen cloth."
