Hardy Empire 1945

Hardy received a call from Director Nolan, "Red Dead Redemption" is finished, and you can watch the movie at any time.

Hardy is going to see for himself first, if there is any dissatisfaction, he can let Nolan modify it and ask Ava to come to Noah's company.

In the screening room, Noah’s top leaders came, including the director and several leading actors. The movie was being screened, and a melodious whistle sounded.

"This piece of music is adapted from the whistle given by Mr. Hardy, and it is about 2 minutes long." Director Nolan introduced.

In the wilderness of Mexico, there was the sound of horse hooves. The surrounding wilderness was desolate. A man rode into the field of vision on a not-so-strong horse.

Walking into a small town, the town is not big, and the streets are empty. The man saw the well. He was a little thirsty to get some water to drink. A five or six-year-old boy ran out to attract the man’s attention, but the boy ran up to him. In front of a house on the opposite side, he had just got into half of his body when he was scolded and scolded.

Two strong men threw the child into the street. One of them took the revolver and fired at the child's feet repeatedly, making the child cry and run away.

At this moment, a window of the house full of iron railings opened, and a beautiful woman appeared in the camera, it was Ava Gardner. She looked at the child being shot and driven away, tears in pain with her expression.

The movie starts here.

......

The plot of the whole movie is very compact, exciting, and occasionally a little humorous. The protagonist in the play is naturally the Red Dead Redemption. In the film, he is astute and witty, turning the two forces around.

Ava doesn't have many scenes, but as soon as she comes out, the camera suddenly feels bright, and her scenes are performed very well.

For example, she was locked in a house and could not go out, sitting by the bed and watching the moon behind the iron fence, singing the Scarborough Fair, sad and poignant.

Nolan's Red Dead Redemption is slightly different from the movie he has seen in his previous life, but it is equally exciting. Even Hardy, the screenwriter, is also very enjoyable.

At the end of the movie, the Red Guardian wiped out Romon and the town restored peace. Afterwards, the Red Guardian rode a horse and left the town to continue his wandering life, much like a Chinese knight who left his clothes behind and hid his fame.

This is the end of the movie.

Shattering~~!

Applause broke out in the projection room.

Just then Nolan stood up and pressed his hand, "It's not over yet, keep watching."

Everyone was taken aback and looked at the screen again.

The Red Dead Disappeared in the mountains and began to play subtitles. At this moment, the figure of Ava appeared on the screen. She was wearing a long dress worn in the movie and walking slowly in the wilderness. The camera gave a close-up shot. , The huge screen is only half-length.

On the screen, Ava is so beautiful that no one can help but focus on her. Ava walks and sings the Scarborough Fair.

In the movie, Ava only hummed a short paragraph, but here is the whole song, it's just one song.

Although everyone in the screening room had heard this song, they were still fascinated by it while looking at the camera.

at last,

The movie ends.

Everyone applauded warmly again.

"I dare you to say that this is the best movie I have ever watched this year. It is exciting and full of pictures. The Fistful of Justice finally saved everyone in the town."

"I think Ava's performance is wonderful. Although there are not many scenes, I remember this role deeply."

"I can foresee the success of this movie."

General Manager Cohen looked at Hardy and said with a smile: "Mr. Hardy, the box office of this movie shouldn't be bad. Congratulations in advance."

Back in the office, Hardy called Meyer, the boss of MGM.

"Mr. Meyer, the movie "Red Dead Redemption" I made before is finished, and I want MGM to help announce it."

Although Noah also has the qualifications to publish films, he is far behind the eight major film companies in terms of advertising ability, so Hardy found MGM.

"Of course it's okay, I'll send someone over to get in touch." Meyer smiled.

Meyer is naturally happy to come to business.

in the afternoon,

The director of MGM's publicity department brought people over and watched the movie again. After watching it, they were very optimistic about the movie.

"I think this movie is worth investing heavily in publicity, advertising in newspapers, posters in movie theaters, and trying to build momentum."

"Mr. Hardy asked Miss Ava to release songs. This is a very good gimmick and will attract a lot of audiences. My suggestion is to let Miss Ava perform in other cities to promote the film."

Hardy said,

It seems that later generations of film announcements are also the same.

Advertising in the media,

Variety shows at star events.

Take the protagonists to run city by city for publicity.

Premiere, press conference and so on.

The head of the publicity and distribution department calculated the bill, and it turned out to be 800,000 US dollars. Hardy relied on it, and it cost less than 300,000 to shoot the movie himself. The publicity cost turned out to be three times the shooting cost.

"How about this fee paid by MGM, and will pay it back when I make money?" Hardy said shamelessly.

"I can't be the master of this, you need to discuss with Mr. Meyer." The main channel of the Propaganda Department.

Hardy called Meyer again, and Meyer happily agreed and was willing to advance the funds. Of course, it was mainly because MGM was able to make a large sum of money in the publicity expenses that he was willing to advance the money.

Ava is gone.

Follow the crew to other cities for publicity.

Hardy had just been idle for two days, and received a call from Lolita Taylor that day. Hardy checked the time. It was ten o'clock in the morning.

"Should you not be filming at this time, you don't have your role today?" Hardy asked.

The little girl said in a gloomy tone: "Something happened to the crew, and work has been suspended now."

Hardy was taken aback.

He is one of the investors in this film. If the crew stops working, his money will be lost.

"What happened to the crew?"

"Yesterday when we were filming, there was an explosion scene in which two stuntmen were injured. Later, the government management department came to make the crew temporarily suspend work. We can only relax, Mr. Hardy, I heard them say that if things are too big , It may take a long time to stop, or even cancel our permission to shoot here." Taylor said with some worry.

"How could it hurt people?" Hardy asked.

"I heard from the staff that the explosives division seemed to put too much explosives, and the explosion intensity was not well controlled, which caused an accident." Taylor said.

"Where did the blaster hire?"

"It was invited in New York."

"What about the stuntman, who is from MGM?"

"No, it's also someone invited in New York."

New York is also one of the art centers in the United States. The earliest film center was in New York. Later, after the rise of Hollywood, it gradually moved to Hollywood. However, there are still many film companies in New York.

It's impossible to bring all the people when filming in New York, and many of them are in New York directly looking for other people to cooperate.

"Mr. Hardy, when do you have time to come to New York, I miss you a bit." Elizabeth Taylor said.

The little girl's emotional expression is very straightforward. She has an inexplicable sense of dependence on Hardy and hopes to see him.

"I will visit you in New York if I have the opportunity during this time." Hardy said.

Mike's TV company has already started production. Mike called to tell him a few days ago that production is basically on track now, with a daily output of about 120 sets and an annual output of more than 40,000 sets.

Now Mike is mainly engaged in sales. New York malls have already put MEBO TVs, and daily sales are gradually increasing.

Mike invited Hardy to have time to go to New York to see the company's development. After all, he is also one of the company's major shareholders.

After the chat with Tyler was over, Hardy just wanted to call MGM and ask if they knew about the accident in the filming. Unexpectedly, before he picked up the phone, the phone rang by himself.

"Hey, this is Hardy."

"Hadi, this is Meyer. I have news to tell you that something went wrong with the killer crew in New York." Meyer said.

"I happened to chat with Tyler just now, and she told me the news, saying that the blaster made a mistake and injured two stuntmen, right? I just wanted to call you to find out about the situation. No one wants this kind of thing to happen. , Give some medical expenses and compensation to the injured, find the management department to clear it, it should be able to solve it." Hardy said.

"It's not as simple as you think." Meyer said.

"Oh, is there anything inside?" Hardy asked.

"Now the injured side costs 100,000 U.S. dollars."

"One hundred thousand!"

Hardy was surprised to hear this price.

One hundred thousand in this era could kill many people, and he realized that it might be a little bit difficult.

"Is there anything inside?" Hardy asked.

"I know you can guess that I am looking for a relationship to communicate with the other party. The other party has a gang background, or that this thing may be done by the New York gang. The demolitionist may be theirs and deliberately put more explosives. , Created this trouble."

"I also contacted the film management department. The management department now has a very strong tone, saying that this matter is not handled properly and will not be allowed to start. I suspect that some people in the government are also involved. To put it bluntly, I intend to cheat our crew. "Meyer said.

Hardy got it.

This is a professional encounter with porcelain.

Make the means cause trouble.

The injured demanded exorbitant compensation.

The government puts pressure on it.

Reasonable and legal.

For such accidents, the crew can also be included in the shooting costs, and the film company can also reimburse it.

When the money is ready, those people will divide it up.

It's really a good way.

"What are you going to do?" Hardy asked Meyer.

"I found a gangster who is familiar, and the other party said that this matter is best solved with money, otherwise it is very troublesome, and it will cost at least 60,000 US dollars~www.novelmt.com~ Meyer said in a deep voice.

"We are partners, I called you to ask your opinion, do you agree to pay the money?" Meyer asked.

Hardy said heartily.

The other party relied on being a local snake, ready to take a bite.

So let him pay.

He was very upset.

"Is there no other way?" Hardy asked.

"My energy can only do this step." Meyer said.

Although he is the big boss of MGM, but the manpower is sometimes poor, Meyer's relationship in New York, it is not easy to do this step.

Hardy thought for a while.

"Mr. Meyer, I'll give a call and try."
