Chapter 41 Signing the Screening Contract

"Ladies and gentlemen, a few minutes ago, I told my partner outside the door that our movie failed. Why do you say that? That's because the movie theater is too quiet. It makes me feel nervous." I grabbed the microphone with both hands so that I couldn't fall down. Suddenly I couldn't hear a little sound, only seeing the mouths of the people below the stage.

The mouth and tongue are dry and the whole body is limp. It turns out that the feeling of success is like this.

"Ladies and gentlemen, more than a month ago, someone came to my house to tell my father that this cinema would be taken back by July, the main source of our family's income. For the sake of life, I decided to make a movie. In order to make a movie, my mother took the jewellery she had treasured for the rest of her life! Half a month ago, when I was cutting this movie, all the people in Harvey Street took the initiative to stand guard for me. A week ago, when the company didn't have enough money to print and copy, all the employees took the initiative to hand over the wages they had worked hard to get out and hand over their hard-earned money!"

The more I spoke, the more excited I became, and my voice was choked.

"Ladies and gentlemen! This movie, I dedicate to my dad, mom, to my partner Berg, Gans, to every employee of DreamWorks, you can see them all in the movie! Dedicate to Mr. Johnny Grant, to Mr. Malskolov, Mr. Fox, Miss Lenny, and Miss Heidi, to those lovely Harvey Street people! Without you, there would be no such movie! Thank you!"

When I finished the word after I said it, I almost fainted on the stage. Gans and Berg held me tightly behind me so that I didn't make me fool of myself.

"Mr. Corleon, we Harvey Street people are proud of you!" In the last rows of the cinema, a group of Harvey Street people who came hiking from Harvey Street shouted and rushed to the front desk, and they lifted me up high.

People left their seats one after another, took out flowers from the flower basket next to them and threw them all out. Everyone sang and danced, obsessed with fanaticism. Lao Ma took my actors to take out the prepared champagne from the backstage and sprayed them everywhere, and the scene was chaotic.

It was midnight when the crowd gradually dispersed. I couldn't hold on. I was helped by Gans and Berger to bed and lie until dawn. I couldn't sleep at all. I heard the shouts of the crowd. When I closed my eyes, I was almost distorted because of excitement. Many times, I felt that I was dreaming, and all of this was dreaming, but the screams of Gans and the fat man coming downstairs proved that this was not a dream, but a real reality.

It was only when it was dawn that I fell asleep. When I woke up, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon.

"Boss, you finally woke up! You snore and thunderously sleeping, which made us envious." The fat man had woken up and quickly helped me up.

"You haven't slept?" I asked in his swollen eyes.

The fat man shook his head: "I'm so excited! Boss, hurry up and wash up. We're busy today!"

"What's wrong?" I walked to the bathroom next to me to brush my teeth and wash my face, and started washing.

"What's wrong?! Our company is almost all over. The Hollywood heads have basically gone through it. There are posters of "Lust and Caution" everywhere. The cinema has never stopped one after another since last night. The front page headlines of major newspapers are us again. The focus of the various programs on the radio is also our movies. Boss, this time we are completely popular!" The fat man was extremely excited and saliva struck me.

After signing the contract, I went to the company. Everyone in the company was busy, and people kept coming to discuss the film screening business. During this period, a large number of reporters rushed over to interview me.

After finally receiving these people, while I was sitting in the office and resting for a while, Gans threw a stack of newspapers onto my table.

"Boss, please do it." He looked depressed.
