Chapter 215: Road to Hollywood? "Fast and Furious"!(1/2)

Marco Müller and Thierry, Takeshi Iwata used to be, they were interested but not that concerned.

Or should I say it this way, Takeshi Iwata thinks Marco is pretty good. At least he is a China expert and has contributed to the promotion of Asian movies to the world.

As for Thierry, Takeshi Iwata is not very familiar with him, but I remember that this guy also became prosperous later on.

But there are some things about France that people just can’t understand.

This country not only has a white flag...ahem...

Let’s not talk about White Flag first, let’s talk about the movie.

They seem to always like to come up with something and always like to stick to something of their own.

It's hard to understand.

On the one hand, he emphasizes how noble he is, but on the other hand, if you understand the history of some small countries in Africa, you will immediately understand what a hypocritical country France is.

In fact, they still do it and still do it now.

This is somewhat similar to the United States.

They always say that this is good or that is good, but when it is done, it is not a big deal.

The old father is kind and the son is filial.

Cannes Film Festival, if you just talk about movies, then this film festival is good.

However, at certain times or under the influence of certain forces, things will happen that are messy and look ZZZQ to white people in Europe and America.

Then, it's disgusting.

Takeshi Iwata really just wants to make a good movie, and he doesn't get involved in that aspect. If the movie wins awards, he is also happy.

But he had to be careful, otherwise, he might be used as a gun one day.

So, just tell Thierry...

Familiar but not that familiar yet.

What are these two people doing looking for me?

As soon as they appeared, Takeshi Iwata had an idea in his mind, that is, would Luc Besson be interested in "This Killer Is Not So Cold" and then he would like to film it?

If this is the case, Takeya Iwata is not an unkind person, right?

However, it was still beyond his expectation.

After the three of them exchanged pleasantries, Marco and Thierry explained their intentions.

"Mr. Iwata, we are here to bring you good news."

"Director Iwata, this is really great news."

A Frenchman and an Italian spoke to Takeshi Iwata in English. Fortunately, this fierce-looking supervisor understood him quite well.

"What exactly is the good news?"

It seems a little confusing for the three of them to talk like this. Let's just let Thierry let Marco do the talking.

This person simply used Chinese directly, which may be more accurate.

"Big companies in Hollywood are interested in you and your work!"

Takeshi Iwata felt a little proud when he heard this, but he still had to ask for details.

"Which one is it? And what works of mine are you interested in?"

He also spoke in Chinese, which seemed to make communication much more convenient than before. At least everyone's accents were not so difficult to understand.

Marco looked excited and spit out two names.

"Universal! Martin Scorsese!"

When Takeshi Iwata heard this, he immediately became enlightened.

Could it be...

Soon, these two guys verified his guess.



He won the Palme d'Or in Cannes before, but on another level, that is, in business, Takeshi Iwata is not idle either.

Toho was originally helping with the operation, so his role as supervisor naturally gave him face.

And, what is this going to do?

Director Iwata wants to break out of Asia and go global!

Well, to be precise, Takeshi Iwata is going to Hollywood!

Hollywood is a term that no filmmaker of this era can avoid.

Even if he is as strong as Akira Kurosawa, so what?

He also made an impact in Hollywood, but his character was too weird and he insisted on his own principles too much, so he had a very unhappy relationship with Hollywood.

For the movie "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!", he was directly replaced by Hollywood.

This thing seems simple to say, but in fact, anyone who knows some workplace rules understands it.

The other party showed no mercy to the master known as the Emperor of Movies.

Kurosawa himself said that his suicide was directly related to this incident.

The old man was okay and didn't cover up the matter.

As for Takeshi Iwata, from the perspective of a supervisor, there is actually no need for him to say his future development goals.

Everyone in Japan knows that he will definitely go to Hollywood to make a career.

It should be said that according to his age, it is still a little early for him.

But considering his momentum, even if he goes now, it won't be a big problem.

The same is naturally true for Toho's operations.

Marco and Thierry, of course, think so.

Ever since, the two of them started taking action.

To put it simply, these two guys formed an international syndicate of movie villains.

If a gang commits a crime, it belongs.

Introducing Takeshi Iwata to Hollywood companies is the first task of their group.

Not to mention, Hollywood responded very quickly.

After all, Takeshi Iwata now has the title of Palme d'Or winner, which is quite a powerful halo.

Dongbao actively cooperated with us, and soon the results were achieved.

Universal Pictures is a film company with a long history in Hollywood, and its name is quite international.

Many major Hollywood companies are expanding beyond the United States, and Universal is a relatively export-oriented company.

Moreover, there is a key figure here.

Martin Scorsese.

This great director once shot a scene for half a year. He is absolutely dedicated to his movies.

In addition, he is also a frequent visitor to the Cannes Film Festival and a winner of the Palme d'Or.

So, it was actually Thierry and Marco who approached this well-known director first, and Martin Scorsese is currently working with Universal Pictures.

Regarding Takeshi Iwata...actually, the director was not that concerned at first.

After all, he was also very busy, but one day in 1990, after he saw the work of director Iwata...

I can’t stop!

A director who was very dedicated to the camera and would even shoot for one shot for half a year, he soon fell in love with the Japanese director's camera techniques.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Very interesting.

As for Toho's various cooperation, it was natural for them to take over all kinds of films.

Ever since, so many elements came together.

That’s right!

Martin Scorsese hopes to remake Takeshi Iwata's "Infernal Affairs"!

In fact, Takeshi Iwata guessed this result as soon as he mentioned the great director's name.

It's indeed a bit surprising that it's not Luc Besson.

But since it's him, it doesn't matter.

Although Martin Scorsese has won the Palme d'Or, he has never had the Oscar for Best Director.

Yes, he is a runner, just like Haruki Murakami.
