"So why didn't I go to Hawaii, but instead I accompany you to do physical work? No way, no, I'm too tired, so I will take a break."
Looking at the small yellow shovel and blue pickaxe in his hand, Mickey wiped the sweat from his forehead, and threw the plastic toy small head aside, regardless of whether the ground was dry or not, just pretending to be dead on the ground motionless.
I thought I was just helping Lu Ze go to the flower shop to pick up a batch of flowers, instead of loading the cart myself, I just helped unload the cart, and I could mix in a Chinese meal of big fish and meat. This transaction was very worthwhile.
But I never expected that Lu Ze caught the young man within two minutes of unloading the truck. There was no extra small pickaxe at home and Mickey was not allowed to rest. I went to a neighbor’s house and borrowed a small toy pickaxe for children to dig sand and let Mickey work.
Construction of the greenhouse started when Lu Ze was preparing to raise animals. The aluminum alloy frame and the glass ceiling have resulted in the thermostats not being delivered yet, and the temperature inside is not low, let alone the thin-skinned Mickey, even Lu. Ze and Wang Zixuan's faces were flushed.
This means that the work efficiency of British workers is too slow. They were replaced by Huaxia workers in two days, but three British workers did a full 20 days. The work was completely completed the day before yesterday. Otherwise, Lu Ze would have to spend the job. Think of another reason to trick the Mendeleev brothers into a partnership.
Wearing a sun hat and pink sleeves with a scarf around to protect the sun, Lu Ze with his pick slightly turned over the soil, and his back to Mickey looks well-fitted from behind. Words, just took two steps back a little, and then shoveled the soil back vigorously.
The moist and agglomerated soil flew up and sprinkled accurately on Mickey's body. He got up quickly as if he had fallen into a fire pit, bending over and spitting several times.
"Bah, baah, are you sick? I swallowed!"
"It's okay, and there is no fat on it, just a little bit of soil, not bad for eating, or... I will give you some animal fat?"
"Fuck him, I won't do it! Whoever wants to do it, go to whom."
He patted the dust on his body, he got up and prepared to leave, at least to return the child's shovel, so as not to be embarrassed when the child came over to shovel, but just half a leg out of the greenhouse gate, he heard Wang Zixuan squatting and moving. When he made a low whisper.
"Hey..."
My ears moved, I looked back, the blue veins on my forehead were all up, I looked up at the sun, and shook my right hand that was wet after wiping the sweat, cursed in a low voice, and he held it sullenly and was about to collapse. The old waist squatted down.
"I don't believe it anymore, I can't do a girly movie."
In fact, he really can't do it...
Within five minutes, he lay on the ground again and began a painful cycle.
"Is North America offline?"
While working, Lu Ze asked. Actually, the workload today is not too much, but only 30 potted flowers. It is not that kind of very delicate variety. Three people clean up together, and it doesn’t take an hour. It can be done right away, and it will be a huge project when the customized lifting rack, constant temperature system, fluorescent lamp, and water circulation system all arrive.
Just when he was working, Lu Ze always didn't like to talk. He was even more reluctant to communicate with others when he was addicted to his favorite hobbies. He waited until his work was about to finish before he brought up this topic.
"Well, several states in Magnesium are offline, a large part of Canada is offline, and Australia is completely offline. Only the Asian theaters are screened normally. Skip this question. I'll be upset if I think about it."
In the three days since "Dead Life" was released, conflicts broke out at the gates of many movie theaters, and even a small-scale parade was launched. The demands of the parade were very mixed. After all, it was a parade without organization and leadership, and the demands of various places were also different. Not the same.
This is also a blessing in misfortune. At present, ZF in various places has seen the incitement of "Departure", and they have paid attention to this film. I believe that the future organizations with ulterior motives will not be able to make any waves. After all, they would not think of it. , The fuse of the conflict is actually a movie, they have missed the best time to instigate.
At present, Lu Ze is most worried about this problem. Once a large-scale demonstration is organized, all the main creators of "Dead Life" will have to be hurt and burned. The fines do not matter. If you go in for two years in prison because of "Departure" Things are very interesting, but now that the country has begun to control it, Lu Ze's heart only relaxed slightly.
Don’t think it’s impossible. You have to know that their company is in the UK, and there are a large group of Irish people in this country who want to be independent. If you really use "Departure" as an excuse, there will be civil unrest or even armed conflict. Can you let go of these instigators?
But the interesting place is also in the area where the movie goes offline or passively reduces the number of screenings. Think about which countries have forced the offline of "Death"? They are all countries where life is relatively comfortable and the gap between the rich and the poor is small. As for the states of Magnesium, do you think it is really good to show such movies in a chaotic city like Detroit?
Of course, in cities like Britain and Germany, the gap between the rich and the poor is actually not big, but there are indeed many internal problems, such as refugees, right...
On the contrary, in many countries where life is under great pressure, or cities under great pressure, the number of screens has increased a lot, even compared with "Women's Federation 6" which competed with "Departure". Such a move is really intriguing. .
In just a few days, "Departure" was labeled as a movie that could destroy adults. It is said that people who are over eighteen should watch it with minors. It also allows those of the Film Association to reclassify "Departure". The management is quite a headache.
At first, the rating of "Departure" was R18, but now think about it, it is completely different from those movies that are full of flesh and blood or are not suitable for children. The target of "Departure" is this group of sane adults, but the children can't understand it. , The impact on them is not great.
How to divide? Children's drama? Nonsense is not it!
More importantly, the news from Japan and South Korea, where the movie was just launched today, has not yet been sent out. It is mainly Xiaori... Japanese people who have a good life. Under that kind of social system, how much will "Departure" cause? Waves...Don't even think about it.
Everything needs time to answer.
The last bunch of flowers were planted and poured with a nutrient solution diluted with water. Even if Lu Ze’s Secret Garden came to an end, the three of them took a bath and changed their clothes. Comrade Xiao Wang put the iced watermelon juice on the table. , The happy hour to cool off has come, but just after drinking the first sip of juice, the unpredictable weather in the United Kingdom gave the three people a dark cloud, causing the three to look at the watermelon juice in their hands, and suddenly it was not sweet. Up.
Then Mickey received a box office report from the investor company. In an instant, his face became gloomier than this ghostly weather...
Up to now, "Women's Federation 6" has a global box office of 220 million U.S. dollars on the first day, and a cumulative box office of 630 million, while "Death"...The first day of the box office is 45 million U.S. dollars, and a total of 150 million U.S. dollars in three days. Up...
Although I have been mentally prepared, seeing people rushing to hold so many fragrant notes, and I am ranked second but so far from the first, there will always be some psychological discomfort. So far, Mickey has started the autistic mode. , Drank the drink silently, without saying a word for a long time.
Raindrops fell sparsely outside, evaporating on the warm ground, forming a mist of water, floating in the sky, at first glance, it looks like a cloud of smoke, as if it has come to a fairyland on earth.
Xiao Wang turned off the air conditioner and opened the windows. The natural wind was healthier. It was very soft on the body, and the sound of rain was more pronounced, making people lazy. At this time, Mickey opened his mouth.
"Lu Ze, I want to ask your opinion about something."
"Say."
"There is a company that has investment intentions in Universal Brothers."
This incident was originally known to Mickey before the release of "Departure", but was busy with the release of "Departure" and thought that if "Departure" was done, he would have a bigger bargaining chip, so he has not been with each other. Cha Chan, as soon as there is time, this matter has become a top priority.
When signing the share transfer contract, Lu Ze had already promised Mickey that he would not interfere in the company’s operations, only take dividends, and the first round of financing would not affect Lu Ze’s shares. Logically speaking, he only needs to be in the shares. After the transaction was completed, it was OK to tell Lu Ze exactly how many shares to allocate to the investor, and Lu Ze could not say anything.
But after all, he is a good buddy. Mickey is not willing to wait until the shares are sold to tell Lu Ze that without Lu Ze, there would be no Universal Brothers. Compared with the company, Mickey felt that the brotherhood with Lu Ze was more important, so he Still taking the initiative to talk about this with Lu Ze is equivalent to taking the initiative to give up the original agreement with Lu Ze.
Lu Ze didn't speak, he lit a cigarette, and pushed his empty cup forward. Upon seeing this, Xiao Wang got up and went to the kitchen to get juice.
"What are the conditions for the other party?"
"30 million euros, 20% of the shares, do not interfere in daily operations, the other party will send people over for important decisions."
"What do you think?"
"35 million euros, 10% to 15%."
"Can you still talk?"
"I can."
The conditions offered by the other party were not too harsh. They obviously came with sincerity. Of course, the greatest sincerity is the real money. In just two movies, the valuation of Universal Brothers has soared from the original several million pounds. At 150 million euros, to be honest, even Lu Ze thinks this valuation is inflated and a lot higher. Even if the filming cost of "Departure" is not low, the box office can still look forward to it. .
Mickey can also feel the sincerity of the other party, so he is not too tight in the amount of financing. 25 million euros is his highest psychological expectation. If the other party really fits with him and has sufficient background, it may be more than 1,000 Wan was sold, but 15% of the shares were his limit.
"You should have your own negotiating team."
"Who wouldn’t tell me, UU read www.uukanshu.com, but things are urgent. I didn’t expect to have an investment so soon. Fortunately, I contacted a negotiating company and I had to sign a contract. I just wanted to talk to you. I want to add something else."
The lighter was pinched with his thumb and index finger, and when he flicked his middle finger, he turned it around. There was a soft clanging sound on the table. Lu Ze was also thinking about any terms that are within the opponent’s ability to accept and are very beneficial to him. .
"What is the origin of the other party?"
"Gabbiano Pictures. (Making
"The one in Italy?"
"Ok."
"interesting……"
Gambiano Pictures, the oldest film company in Italy, was established in 1924, and is now a well-deserved giant in Italy and even the entire European film industry, and has a pivotal position in the world film industry.
The top directors, screenwriters and actors from all over Europe gather here, and its representative works include "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", "Brilliant Life", "Paradise Cinema", "Beautiful Life" and other classic movies that have a long history. "And "A Beautiful Life" even had a very significant impact on Lu Ze's career.
Such predators want to invest in Universal Brothers. Lu Ze is a little surprised, but it is not incomprehensible. After all, the movie ghost of Mickey Taylor is still here, but there is one more thing in front of us. Lu Ze and Mickey need to go. Consider whether or not to accept investment from Gambiano Films. .
After all, Gabbiano Films is in the hands of the Gabbiano family, and the Gabbiano family was one of the oldest families in Italy before the transformation and bleaching.
