Chapter 628 Can't Wait for Catherine
The discussion with Shao Liu ended in "Meeting Next Time", and the other party did not give him a clear answer.
Li Zitao was not surprised either. Now he is not the sixth uncle, and he is not a promise in the Shaw Brothers company. Naturally, such a big matter is not up to him.
However, Li Zitao believed that he was tempted. There were no strings attached, and he only wanted to make money from investing. He didn't believe that Shao Liu could resist the temptation.
If he could bear it, Li Zitao didn't mind finding other people, but the conditions were not so generous.
Whoever makes Shao Liu's success 'predictable', of course he can boldly delegate power.
Li Zitao doesn't want to waste his money on other people who don't know. Five million dollars is not much to him, but it is a huge investment in any industry.
In other words, does this kind of limelight make Lawrence's "angel investment" more appropriate, "Forget it, after all, this is a private matter!"
In terms of film and television cultural output, there are two successful companies in the future, one is 'Hollywood' and the other is 'Bollywood. '
Of course, Korean dramas are also very successful, directly distorting the sexual orientation of the new generation in Huaguo.
The Huaguo market in the future will be divided into two levels. Men will go to watch American blockbusters, while women will go after small fresh meat Oppa dramas.
As for domestic blockbusters, apart from a few works of conscience, the rest are hurt once and disappointed once, and they are short of catching up with the national football team.
Those so-called big names, steel cannons, old schemers, play with the audience as if they are mentally retarded every day, and they are so plausible that the audience is rubbish. '
The decline of Hong Kong films has left the Chinese market without truly representative works. Li Zitao feels helpless when he thinks about these.
Now the reason why he supports Shao Liu and wants to build an oriental Hollywood is to change this situation.
However, judging by Shao Liu's personality, he may prefer to see the Shaw family dominate the big family, thinking that only he can promote Chinese films.
This kind of self-confident attitude is also the motivation to support him to go on. No one can tell clearly whether it is good or bad.

Hollywood, DreamWorks.
Aymo and Bank Group representatives were in the process of signing the final deal, after which Paramount would be out of their control.
"Happy cooperation." The moment he put down the pen, DreamWorks completed the acquisition of Paramount.
Because before the transaction with the banking group, Aimo had already obtained the equity transfer letter from Adolf Zucker and Froman Brothers.
The corresponding debts were also transferred to DreamWorks, otherwise it would not be him who signed with the banking group, but Zhu Ke and the Froman brothers.
"Congratulations, I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future." The representative of the bank group was very polite to Aimo.
Standing behind this woman is a giant crocodile, a financial tycoon who commands the wind and rain on Wall Street, who would want to fight against such a figure.
Asking the secretary to send the representatives of the banking group away, Aimo pointed to the chair in front of Zhu Ke who was sitting on the sofa next to him.
"The boss of your plan agrees in principle, but he has the final say on the subject matter of the shooting. Here is the script he provided." Ai Mo's face was a bit helpless.
Seeing her expression like this, Adolf Zucker's heart sank, guessing, 'It must be that the script is so bad that even a layman like her can't stand it. '
"Ms. Aymo... our agreement... the shooting should be in my hands." If possible, Adolf Zucker really didn't want to mention this at this time.
The two parties have just reached a cooperation and have not yet entered the honeymoon period. He has not yet received the stocks and investment promised by the other party. It would be very unfavorable for him to fall out now.
But Adolf Zucker is paranoid when it comes to filming. He can tolerate the change of ownership of the company, he can also accept no shares, or even a low salary, but the only thing he can’t bear is to let him shoot a pile of shit.
"You should read it before you talk!" Realizing that the other party seemed to have misunderstood something, Ai Mo pointed at the script and waited to see his performance.
The preconceived 'prejudice' made Zhu Ke think that it was the impulsive impulse of the rich, but with the sound of paper turning, he could no longer look away from it.
So much so that even he couldn't help but gasp when he saw the last "no upper limit".
This is more than a big deal, it is simply going to blow a hurricane in the global film industry.
People will use all kinds of contemptuous words to describe him, 'ego maniac,' 'idiot,' 'arrogant nouveau riche,' 'a layman who doesn't understand movies'...
No words of praise could be imagined in Adolf Zucker's mind.
But I have to say that this script is very attractive to him, and it will be even more sensational if it can be made.
It's just whether it can make a profit in the end, and Adolf Zucker prefers the latter.
It is not that there are no works that are popular but not sold in Hollywood, on the contrary, there are many.
Especially after the big production of "Hell's Angels", some companies that saw business opportunities began to try to shoot on the big screen.
However, most of them failed and lost their fortunes, but the eight major film companies have always maintained a cautious and steady style.
Now Li Zitao wants to shoot a film with an investment of more than 20 million US dollars, this is the figure Zhu Ke obtained based on his experience.
If he knew that Li Zitao had already acquired White Star, and was planning to renovate the "Olympus" and let Howard build a 1:1 model, Zhu Ke would know that his budget was far from enough.
Keng Keng.
There was a knock on the door, and looking at Catherine behind the glass, Aimo smiled and said, "Catherine, come in!"
"Amo...Mr. Zhuke, it seems that we are already a family with Paramount." Catherine said in a relaxed tone, sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed very generously.
Aimo's attitude towards her is already commonplace, but this new star known as the 'Emperor' is somewhat independent.
Aimo doesn't care about these, as long as she cooperates with the company's work and can earn a lot of money for DreamWorks, fans like her like this.
After selling for a long time, people will either become more and more resistant to it, or it will be integrated with the personality and completely become a real personality.
Catherine does not have this confusion. She is like this. She just needs to be herself. What fans like is her own appearance.
"Yes, we are a family from today on." Aymo laughed.
Regarding the acquisition of Paramount by DreamWorks, there was a lot of buzz in Hollywood, let alone someone like Catherine, even a random tourist on the street would know about it.
"That's really great. Does the company have any shooting plans?" Catherine didn't come here today to chat, but with a purpose.
She hasn't started work for half a year. Since the end of the last drama, she has been in a gap period, and her opportunities have been taken away by the 'new favorites' one by one.
The reason why she came uninvited today was because she couldn't wait, and another reason was that she had received news that Paramount was about to make a big move.
