Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 514 What’s the use of just saying thank you?

Compared to Xuelin Fenn, who has not yet adapted to Hanyu Hideki's rhythm, Jenny Wright next to her seems much more casual.

After Jenny Wright ate the meat, she asked Hanyu Hideki with a smile, "Sir, can you tell us the information about Blood Corpse Night now?"

Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu took a bite of the pulled pork burger, then wiped his mouth and hands with a tissue, shook his head and said, "The pork is good, but the sauce is a bit sweet."

After saying that, he looked at Jenny Wright.

"I thought Manager Bill would tell you."

Hanyu Hideki's words made Jenny Wright's expression freeze, and she instantly had a bad feeling in her heart.

But even so, she could only say to Mr. Hanyu with a forced smile.

"Manager Bill told me a few things. For example, there were some changes in the script of the sequel compared to the first movie."

Hideki Hanyu nodded, "Yes, although the budget for the sequel has increased, the content is not directly connected to the first one, because Yunshang Pictures intends to focus on the work of Blood Corpse Night, and is preparing to expand the derivative world view, and even consider tying up with the manga. Wei, Elf Entertainment collaborates to produce comics and games.”

Hanyu Hideki's answer made Jenny Wright feel slightly better.

This is why many Hollywood movies failed at the box office, but sequels are filmed one after another.

"I am very willing to!"

At this time, Jenny Wright didn't care that Xuelin Fen would see that she was strong on the outside but weak on the inside. After all, she couldn't protect herself.

Although according to general Hollywood practice, the starring actors will not be changed in the sequel movie.

Xuelin Fen agreed without hesitation, not caring about the sad Jenny Wright next to her, even if the other party introduced her to Hideki Hanyu.

Just when Jenny Wright was at a loss, Hideki Hanyu looked at Xuelin Fen.

"Your character will still exist."

But the next sentence that followed made her feel like she had fallen into an ice cave.

Once the IP core style is successfully created, the benefits will be more than just movie box office.

Although this woman is not the particularly scheming or clever type.

Not to mention marginalizing Jenny Wright's role, Hanyu Hideki even asked that the second film be shot strictly in line with the long-term plan of the story, even if it is not so profitable at the box office.

In addition to comics and games, you can also shoot spin-off series and other works.

If Jenny Wright really had an extraordinary relationship with Hideki Hanyu as she said, then how could Hideki Hanyu not tell Jenny Wright about changing the script until now.

After all, the management of Yunshang Pictures did not have the foresight like him to know that the books he bought and the movies he selected had the potential to be big hits.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Jenny Wright who looked disappointed next to him, and did not say any words of comfort.

Besides, in this era, in addition to box office, there are many channels for profit, such as the video tape market, TV series, game distribution, etc.

Therefore, after finally launching a successful work, I naturally hope to continue the success.

It is based on the content of the first movie, expanding the world view and story background of the entire movie, and blending the story of a vampire, heavenly forces, and human ghost hunters.

Therefore, we must make major changes, and then use comics and games to expand our influence and maximize this IP.

Besides, Hideki Hanyu just said that "Night of the Blood Corpse" will be the next key project of Yunshang Pictures. With the linkage of comics and games, how famous will she gain?

Friendship in Hollywood is cheap, but opportunity is luxurious.

As long as the sequel is successful, the IP of Yunshang Pictures will be trapped in a virtuous circle and can continue to be filmed.

Compared with most producers in this era who prefer one-shot deals, Hanyu Hideki undoubtedly sees further, has more patience, a better overall view, and the ability to cultivate IP.

The production scale of "Night of the Blood Corpse" has increased, which should have made her happy, but now it makes her not happy at all.

Because this is Hollywood.

Now she also understands that many of the things Jenny Wright said to her before were probably just false bragging.

Because maintaining the unified style and characteristics of the work is the most important, only in this way can long-term benefits be guaranteed.

As soon as Hideki Hanyu said this, Xuelin Fen was about to say it didn't matter.

"Miss Xuelin Fen, I think there is a female villain in Night of the Blood Corpse who is very suitable for you. The role of the second female protagonist should be considered important. You can consider it."

But for more important and longer-term goals, it is natural for some people to sacrifice.

But Jenny Wright’s depressed, desperate expression was too easy to distinguish.

She couldn't choose to go forward and retreat with Jenny Wright just for this trivial favor.

"But the character is no longer the protagonist like in the first film."

"Very good, but the audition may not start immediately because Yunshang Pictures is still looking for a suitable director for Night of the Blood Corpse. Once the director is confirmed, we will notify New Century Agency to audition."

At this time, looking at everything happening in front of her, Xuelin Fen across from her gradually understood the situation.

Jenny Wright's first reaction was to get up and sit across from him, close to Hanyu Hideki, and asked, "Sir, what about my role?"

Hideki Hanyu read the script for the sequel to "Night of the Dead" and even gave some suggestions for revisions.

After all, no matter how big the investment is, no matter how much attention she gets from Yunshang Pictures, if her character loses her status, what does that mean to her.

After hearing these words from Hideki Hanyu, Jenny Wright could no longer maintain a smile.

Kathryn Bigelow's first work is a bit small in scope. Before it was transformed by Hideki Hanyu, it was completely a pornographic film wrapped in a vampire shell.

But before he finished speaking, he heard a man's voice coming from the entrance of the store.

"Xuelin! What are you doing here!"

The man's voice was loud and full of questioning, which immediately attracted the attention of many people in the barbecue restaurant.

Of course, this also includes Hanyu Hideki’s table.

Hideki Hanyu turned around and glanced, and found that the person who asked the question was none other than Xuelin Fen's boyfriend, Johnny Depp, who had just become famous with "The Boys".

I have to say that the young Depp is really handsome. The most important thing is his slightly melancholic temperament, which is completely different from Captain Jack Sparrow in the later "Pirates of the Caribbean".

Huh?
Seeing Depp, Hideki Hanyu thought that although the IP of "Pirates of the Caribbean" cannot be filmed now, it does not prevent him from taking advantage of it in advance.

How about getting ahead of Glory and developing a version of the "Voyage"-type game with pirates as the protagonists, and the name is simply "Pirates of the Caribbean".

As long as the plot content is pretty much the same, we’ll see how Disney competes with him.

After all, rides like pirate ships are not exclusive to Disney.

When Hideki Hanyu was thinking about a plan to make money, he didn't care at all that Johnny Depp was already walking towards him after questioning him.

There were several people following the other party, and they looked like they were here to catch his girlfriend cheating on her.

Of course, it's just that the place where you catch the adulterer is a bit weird.

After all, it's a bit unreasonable to think of certain things like the bold and arrogant Texas Barbeque Restaurant.

As for why Hideki Hanyu didn't care, it was because Johnny Depp and his group were stopped by several of Hideki Hanyu's black-clad bodyguards before they even got close.

Although Johnny Depp was a bit young and frivolous due to his popularity, fortunately he didn't take drugs before coming today, and he didn't do anything impulsive when faced with several cold-blooded bodyguards.

The most important thing is that the agent who followed him had participated in the Producers Alliance event and immediately recognized Hanyu Hideki through the bodyguard.

Even though Hanyu Hideki's back was turned to them from beginning to end, at most he could only see his side face.

But there is only one such handsome young super-rich man in the world. It is hard not to be deeply impressed by anyone who has seen him.

The agent immediately whispered in Johnny Depp’s ear and told Hanyu Hideki’s information.

Then Johnny Depp froze.

He had previously received news that his girlfriend Xuelin Fen had turned down a project he introduced and was following an actress from the New Century Agency, suddenly leaving without saying goodbye.

Then it happened that a friend saw his girlfriend eating here, so he rushed over with others, wanting to question Xuelin Fen why she didn't accept his kindness.

But the friend didn't tell him who was eating with Xuelin Fen.

In the moment of silence, Hanyu Hideki, who didn't care what was going on around him, finally finished thinking about his "Pirates of the Caribbean" game plan.

He stood up slowly, straightened his clothes and said to the two women, "I'm full. This is the situation on Blood Corpse Night. I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he left his seat and walked out of the restaurant surrounded by bodyguards.

The moment he passed by Johnny Depp, Hideki Hanyu looked at the future Captain Jack Sparrow and nodded slightly with a smile on his face.

In another time and space, he still liked the character of Captain Jack Sparrow very much.

As for Johnny Depp’s character?

Whether it's taking drugs, being a celebrity, or being pulled on the bed by his wife, what does that have to do with him.

They do not belong to the same class, and it is difficult to become friends.

If there is a chance to cooperate, it is enough that the other party can help him make money. Today, Depp is the favorite fried chicken among teenagers.

Hideki Hanyu’s attitude surprised Johnny Depp.

However, out of instinct, he also nodded slightly in response the moment they passed each other.

Next, when Hanyu Hideki left with his entourage.

The agent next to Johnny Depp said with some excitement.

"Depp, it seems that this gentleman has a good impression of you. If Yunshang Pictures has an event in the future, I can take you to participate. Maybe you can participate in Yunshang Pictures' movies. I heard that they are producers Several projects were confirmed at the event.”

Johnny Depp nodded, "I know."

After saying that, he strode towards Xuelin Fen again.

At this time, Xuelin Fen was still thinking about what Hideki Hanyu said to her.

She is the second female lead in the sequel movie, and it is a big production with a budget of about 10 million.

Such an opportunity fell on her head so easily.

Xuelin Fen still feels a little unreal.

Just at this moment, Johnny Depp walked up to her and said in a questioning tone.

"Xuelin! Why did you turn down the job I introduced you to? Do you know how many good things I said to the producer for you?"

When Xuelin Fen heard Depp's tone, she immediately felt a little unhappy.

A big shot like Hideki Hanyu was not so bossy even when he recommended her to be the second female lead in a movie.

But what about Johnny Depp? He just helped her find a walk-on role in "Young Boys", but he disrespected her ideas so much.

Thinking of this, Xuelin Fen stood up and said unceremoniously, "I didn't ask you to help me find opportunities!"

"What are you talking about?" Johnny Depp was a little angry.

Xuelin Fen's attitude remained firm, "I'm not your toy. I have my own ideas. Is there anything wrong if I don't do things according to your help?"

The young and energetic Johnny Depp glared at Sherlyn Fenn and said, "Remember what you said, it's best never to come to me for help!"

"Don't worry, I won't come looking for you."

Sherlyn Fenn, who had already been recommended by Hideki Hanyu, didn't care about Johnny Depp's threat at this time.

And after saying that, she no longer wanted to pay attention to Johnny Depp, turned around and left the restaurant.

But Johnny Depp grabbed Sherilyn Fenn's hand and said, "What do you mean!"

Xuelin Fen turned around and shook off Johnny Depp's hand, speaking firmly.

"Can't you hear it? We're done!"

Then, the blonde beauty strode out of the restaurant.

In the restaurant, Johnny Depp shouted angrily after a moment, "Bitch! I'm done with you too!"

After that, the popular star also left with his people.

Jenny Wright was the only one left in the originally crowded seats.

Although Sherilyn Fenn and Johnny Depp's breakup drama was exciting, she has no intention of watching it now.

Because Hanyu Hideki has clearly told him that although she can still appear in "Night of the Blood Corpse", she is destined to be a marginal role.

On the contrary, Xuelin Fenn, whom she originally planned to use, unexpectedly got an important role.

Of course she was not reconciled to this result.

She got up and ran out of the restaurant quickly, wanting to pray to Hanyu Hideki one last time, willing to pay any price.

But at this time, the roadside was empty. Not to mention Hideki Hanyu, not even the taillights of the cars could be seen.

……

Where is Hideki Hanyu?

The scumbag had already taken a car to Nicole Kidman's house in West Hollywood.

It's rare to spend a few days in Los Angeles, so I can't waste my time.

A twenty-year-old Australian white girl, of course, should take advantage of her young body and soft body to enjoy it.

These actresses who work in Hollywood often lose their appearance very quickly due to irregular working hours, dieting, plastic surgery, and other reasons.

If I don’t enjoy it now, I don’t know when I will stop talking.

But when he arrived at Nicole Kidman's house, the Australian white girl seemed to know something and asked tentatively.

"Hideki, have you gone to see Naomi in the past two days?"

Hanyu Hideki has always been a scumbag.

So when faced with Nicole Needleman's temptation, he answered bluntly.

"Yes, the day after she moved out, Jingzi called me and said that Naomi was robbed in the hotel and hoped that I would help her."

Nicole Kidman asked, "What then?"

"Then I went. I couldn't watch her live on the street. I helped him rent a house in Westwood District, and asked Fred to help her find some job opportunities."

When Nicole Kidman heard this, she couldn't help but asked loudly, "Why are you helping her!"

Hanyu Hideki frowned and said in a calm voice, "Why can't I help her?"

Nicole Kidman said, "But she wanted to steal my role."

"She is not only your friend, but also Jingzi's friend. Even for Jingzi, I will help her."

When Hanyu Hideki said this, his tone became more and more indifferent.

Nicole Kidman had already realized that something was wrong with Hanyu Hideki's expression and tone.

She quickly hugged Hanyu Hideki to try to save her, "I'm sorry, I just felt sad because of her betrayal, so I lost control of my emotions."

"Nicole, the casting for that movie hasn't started yet. Although I promised to recommend you, in the end it still depends on the director's decision. If you continue in your current state, it may be difficult to get a role."

Having said this, Hanyu Hideki pushed away Nicole Kidman who was holding him, looked at the other person and said in a disappointed tone.

"So, you'd better calm down and learn how to control your emotions."

"Sorry……"

Hanyu Hideki ignored the Australian girl's apology and pleas, left the woman's house, got in the car and drove away.

For Hideki Hanyu, a woman who cannot provide him with emotional value, no matter how beautiful she is, is useless no matter how famous she was in her previous life.

He is willing to provide resources, money and opportunities, but he will not be a woman's emotional outlet.

Of course, staying alone in an empty room at night is not the style of a scumbag.

If Nicole Kidman can't do it, then Naomi Watts will be the one.

After entering the house with a bad expression, Naomi Watts immediately saw it.

He quickly asked, "What happened? Why are you so unhappy?"

"I just went to Nicole's place..."

The scumbag took the opportunity to tell what happened to Nicole Kidman.

Of course, he would definitely add fuel to the fire and say that his unhappiness was all because of Naomi Watts.

After Naomi Watts heard this, she was naturally very happy. After all, Hanyu Hideki lost his temper with a certain Bichi because of her.

In this matter alone, Naomi Watts felt that she had initially defeated that woman.

Overjoyed, Naomi Watts immediately got into the scumbag's arms and said in a touching tone, "Thank you for everything you have done for me."

"Of course you have to thank me. After all, I am very angry now because of you."

"I……"

Naomi Watts wanted to say something else, but the scumbag grabbed the woman's hair.

"What's the point of just saying thank you? Come with something practical to cheer me up."

After saying that, Hideki Hanyu tightened his grip on Naomi Watts' blond hand and pressed it down hard...
