Chapter 490 The bishop's helplessness Chapter 491 The arrival of the president and the pope!(1/3)

In other words, what I care most about during Northrop's trip to Asia was not how he and the Goryeo sticks, but what he did in China.

"You've arrived in Shanghai?" I asked with a smile.

Northrop nodded and became excited.

"I arrived in Shanghai for the first stop. Before I went there, I called Zhang Shichuan and Zheng Zhengqiu. Boss, you don't know, the welcome I received in China is simply unimaginable!" Northrop stretched out his arms and gestured hard.

"What's wrong? The Shanghai people threw bricks at you?" I laughed.

Northrop's face turned red and said, "From the dock to the city, there were crowds of welcomes on both sides of the road, slogans and slogans, and brought us into Shanghai like heroes. I have never been so solemn and warmly welcomed!"

"Zhang Shichuan led the mayor of Shanghai to receive me personally. When I was having dinner at the city government in the evening, I asked Zhang Shichuan privately why he was so enthusiastic about us. What do you guess he said?" Northrop became mysteriously secretly.

"I'm a bitch, hurry up and say, keep it in your mouth and cut off his tongue!" Gans and the fat man reached out and beat Northrop.

Northrop smiled and said, "Zhang Shichuan said that since Chinese films won the first Harvey Award for Best Foreign Language Film with our help, the news has reached China and the whole of China is in full swing. Zhang Shichuan has become a hero in the minds of the Chinese people in the blink of an eye, and the star film company has received strong support and help from the government. And our Dream Factory, especially your boss, has now become the most loyal friend in the minds of the Chinese people!"

"By the way, I have brought you a lot of gifts from Chinese friends. I guess you will like them and put them in your bedroom." Northrop pointed to my bedroom.

"Zhang Shichuan and their star film company are developing well?" I asked.

"Okay. Very good! Zhang Shichuan used the factory that we gave him land money to expand, and the government gave them a lot of subsidies. Now the celebrity film company has completely become the overlords of the Chinese film company. And when I went there, Zheng Zhengqiu had already gone to Hong Kong to establish a branch factory. It can be said that they are now thriving, and the company's films are also in a hurry to shoot."

"That's good. What should you do with that batch of arms?" I sat upright.

Northrop grinned: "What else can I do? I'll sell them the lowest price as you told me."

"Of course I know you sold it, the key is who did you sell it?" I looked at Northrop.

Northrop answered readily: "Sold to two groups of people."

"Which two batches?"

Northrop lit a cigarette and said, "The first batch was introduced by Zhang Shichuan. He was the representative of the Chinese government, named Zhang Zhizhong. This man is very good, with courage and a sense of justice. He expressed his welcome to sell weapons to them. I asked him indirectly as you told him about his attitude towards the Japanese, but he hated the Japanese very much. He also advocated that as long as the Japanese dared to invade, they would resist bravely and drive the Japanese out. I thought it was good, so I sold half of the arms to him."

I laughed.

If Zhang Zhizhong had no sense of justice, I am afraid that no one in the huge China would have a sense of justice. This general, who later became a banner of anti-Japanese war, broke out in the "October 2.8" campaign, led his troops to severely attack the Japanese. Later, he was always on the forefront of the anti-Japanese war. I don't worry.

“Where is another batch?”

Northrop smacked his lips: "I was careful and didn't sell it out. After staying in Shanghai for a while, I led the fleet to Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, I met Zheng Zhengqiu and I visited their local branch in Hong Kong. Although the place was a little smaller, it was very good. Under his introduction, I sold the arms to another group of people."

"This group of people is a little strange. I don't know their origins. The person they sent to contact me has a very strange name, called Pengpai."

The name "Pengpai!?" made my heart beat wildly.

"Have you figured out the origin of this person?" I asked.

Northrop nodded: "How could I not figure it out? I told him that if he did not introduce himself clearly, I would not sell arms to him. As a result, he said that he was the person who is now called the Reds by the Chinese government, and this Pengpai is the local people around Hong Kong, and it seems that they are from Guangdong Province."

Well, I understand. Zheng Zhengqiu had a good relationship with left-wing people. If I guess correctly, the Pengpai who later participated in the Nanchang Uprising and later established the Hailufeng Soviet Government.

This bitch is so lucky that I was so satisfied with this job.

"Boss, did I sell the wrong one?" Northrop felt a little nervous as he looked at me as he looked blue and white.

"No, you did this very beautifully!" I praised it.

Northrop immediately smiled because at DreamWorks, I usually don't praise people easily.

"By the way, boss, this Pengpai said that there will be such excellent and very cheap arms in the future, so you must sell them." Northrop looked at me and said solemnly.

"How did you answer him?" I couldn't help laughing.

Northrop pouted and said, "I didn't agree at that time, and there was no positive answer."

"Then do you think we should work with them?" I smiled.

Northrop was stunned for a moment and said, "Boss, I think the Pengpai introduced by Zhang Shichuan and Zheng Zhengqiu represent two completely different forces. Zhang Zhizhong represents the current Chinese government, and Pengpai represents it, so I can't say it. Personally, I think that Zhang Zhizhong and others are rich and have a good attitude towards us. Pengpai are very poor, but they are very good, so I can't say it."

I laughed and said, "Forget it, let's ask your subordinates to divide the arms into ten pieces each time, sell them three pieces to Zhang Zhizhong, and sell them seven pieces."

"Okay!" Northrop laughed.

After tinkering with this, it will probably be lively in the future.

I don’t care whoever I am, as long as he fights against Japan, I will sell him arms. This is my idea.

"boss,

There is another big gain in Hong Kong!" Northrop whispered.

"You kid is really good this trip. I have accomplished a lot. Tell me, what are the big gains?" I took a sip of tea.

"When I was in Hong Kong, I wandered around while I had nothing to do. Later, when I walked to a place, someone came over to sell drugs to me. They seemed to be called opium." Northrop's words raised my heart.

"opium!?"

"Yes, opium. At first I was a little strange, thinking it was transported by the British, but later on, I found that only 10% of these opium were transported by the British. They were all sold to mainland China. In addition, 90% of the places came from several small countries in southern China. Some people specialized in planting poppy and then transported to Hong Kong through various channels. They spread out from here, some sold to mainland China, and some sold to other countries."

"A British man raised by a bitch!" I cursed in my heart.

Hong Kong and the mainland are closely together. If the British do this, the Chinese will suffer.

"Boss, I thought you would tell us not to let us sell drugs to China. But the British did this and they were completely against you. And the drugs leaked from those small countries would also have an impact on our drug markets in Japan and other places, so I did it boldly!" Northrop gritted his teeth.

"You boy won't have established a branch of an American Asian trading company in Hong Kong, will I?" I laughed.

Now I find that I am more and more fond of Northrop.

"By the way! Hong Kong is now a British colony. It does not violate the order you gave me. I set up a branch there. On the one hand, I can use Hong Kong as our transit station through Hong Kong through selling arms and weapons. On the other hand, I can cooperate with the Hong Kong branch of the celebrity movie company to promote their connection with DreamWorks. More importantly, we can here accept most of the drug business in Asia, which can not only prevent the drugs you confessed from flowing into China, but also earn profits by smuggling drugs to other countries. Doing this can kill multiple birds with one stone." Northrop said with a spit.

"Why didn't I find that you are so good at brain!" Gans and others patted Northrop and laughed.

"Okay! Northrop, your idea is very good! I see that these things in Asia will be left to you in the future. I have nothing to say. The only thing I want to remind you is to be careful and careful, because what you do is shameful, and it is also not to harm the Chinese. I don't care about other countries. Of course, if you are willing, you can sell drugs to Europe." I told Northrop.

"Boss, don't worry, I will remember!" Northrop nodded vigorously.

"Northrop, go back and tell your second brother and Natalia that they can apply your successful experience to Europe. You can set up an American and European trading company in various European countries, so that you can do all kinds of things."

"clear."

The trip to Northrop to Asia achieved great results, which made me very satisfied. Later, a group of people suggested to go to the Imperial Hotel to have fun and celebrate, and I agreed.

I had fun all night, and when I woke up the next day, it was already past twelve o'clock noon.

In the next few days, from the 12th to the 16th, the director formed the busiest people in DreamWorks, I, Steller, Griffith, Munau, and Dunar, rarely leaving the editing room for almost twenty-four hours a day.

Anyone who knows something about movies knows that compared to shooting, editing is a very labor-intensive and very boring thing.

When making a movie, you can spend a few months shooting those shots slowly, and you can relax a little in the middle and get a little bit of fun, but editing is not possible. So many films must be completed in a short time, and you must try your best to make the editing of these films perfectly conform to your intentions and express your ideas perfectly. This is a very nerve-wracking thing.

Fortunately, on the one hand, when I was writing the script, I took the relevant matters of editing. When shooting, the camera was shot very well in line with the original script, which brought great convenience to the editing. On the other hand, Griffith and others were experienced. With their help, it saved me a lot of effort.

Just worked day and night. On the afternoon of the 16th, the editing of "The Passion of Jesus" was finally completed.

Although further running-in and modification are needed, the main work is basically completed.

When I watched the last shot be edited, I immediately collapsed on the editing stage.

Sitting opposite me, Griffith was so tired that he couldn't sit up, and Stiller and others were all haggard.

"Boss. It's really not possible. I only slept for two or three hours a day in these four days, so I have to have a good sleep!" Stenberg's eyes were so red that they looked like rabbits.

"Okay, I'll give you a few days off. What do you want to do? The company will reimburse the expenses." I waved powerlessly.

"yeah!"

There were so many ghosts and wolves howling in the room.

"Let's go back and sleep for a day first. Then go to the Imperial Hotel!"

"That's what I think! By the way, let Natalia pick a few beautiful girls for us!"

"I want a Japanese woman this time!"

"Then I want a stick!"

...

Thump, these guys who were dying just now suddenly felt energetic, but just as they were shamelessly arguing with each other, their boss had fallen from the chair.

Stiller and others slept and played, but I couldn't be as happy as they were.

After sleeping for a few hours, I was screamed out of bed by Jimmy.

"Boss, your phone number."

"Who called?"

"Mr. Grant."

I lazily got up and walked to the office outside to answer the phone.

"Andre. Have you disturbed your sleep? Haha. Are you free tonight?" Grant's tone was very happy.

"If I were to go out for fun, I wouldn't have time. I just finished editing "The Passion of Jerusalem". I was so tired that I was almost exhausted." I yawned.

“The Crucifix of Jesus is finished!

Lant suddenly became excited.

"Yes. I just finished cutting it. I still need to modify the hair." I let out a long sigh.
