Sometimes, it is really an art.

Making the other party so angry that he had to grit his teeth and bow his head at the end. This is a requirement for ability. The most important thing is to know the other party's bottom line. If you stab the knife to the right place, you will stab the other party to death. If the other party is killed, they will not agree. If you slapped it twice, it will be shallow. It is just a skin injury and scratched itch through the shoe. Not only will you feel unhappy, but you will also feel heartbroken.

I have rarely snatched the bamboo robberies before, especially such a big one. But fortunately, there is a former president Mr. Coolidge who is particularly good at snatching the bamboo robberies. I shouted the price and he dealt with it. The cooperation between the two was perfect.

In front of the two of us, Old DuPont and John Rockefeller were angry but were dumb and could not speak.

"John, stop talking. If you say it again, I think Andre will add it." Old DuPont whispered at the angry little John Rockefeller.

His words really made the little John Rockefeller jumping up and down honestly. Old DuPont said it right. If John Rockefeller was really so noisy and annoying to me, I would really add it.

"Andre, let's discuss it. "Old Dupont pulled John Rockefeller over and muttered to the side.

"Boss, I don't understand, why did you agree to them?" Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gans, who had been holding back his words, walked over.

"Do you think we shouldn't promise them?" I laughed.

"Of course we shouldn't agree to them! Anyone with discerning eyes can understand what's going on in this matter. They are using Lockettke TV to practice. Once they are proficient, they can go to the national TV station to shoot TV series and deal with us in turn. Aren't we going to attract wolves into the house?" Gans couldn't understand what I expected.

"Gans, I don't think about this thing as much as you do. To some extent, your idea is good at all. They are indeed practicing with our TV station, but for our TV station, this thing brings more benefits. First of all, the TV films filmed by Chaplin can increase the richness of our TV station programs, can bring us great reputation to Lockettke TV station, and secondly, can also bring us huge economic benefits. The benefits of their TV films are not only us, but also have to pay us advertisements.

Fei, this is not quite good. Besides, the copyright of the TV movie belongs to our Rockettec TV station. The state TV station can’t make any cheaper in this area. In addition, there is another point that we can win over Chaplin. Chaplin told me about his current situation in the Thunderbolt Hua Film Company. He is now out of a difficult time, so we will pull him. This means that he will invest in him in the future. Chaplin is now in conflict with Carey Rockefeller Cat. Maybe he will become a sharp blade for us to deal with Thunderbolt Hua at any time!”

My words made Gans frown and relieve his brow. "But, if Chaplin's ground-based TV movie was not responding well after it was broadcast on our TV station, or even being scolded by the public, wouldn't that have smashed our ground card?" Gans continued.

"So I just made a condition with them. That is, they must undergo my review before the TV movies they shoot. I'll come here in person. Don't worry. The TV movies are good or bad. I can basically tell the difference. In this regard, there is no need to worry about anything." I'm still very confident about this.

We are talking here. John Rockefeller and DuPont, the old have already discussed it.

Looking at the little John Rockefeller's dejected look, I knew they had finished it in negotiation.

"Andre. We just discussed the two conditions you mentioned. We promised you." Old DuPont shrugged.

"Okay. Happy cooperation." I smiled.

After knocking their robberies, these guys won't stay for long, so I got up and sent them out.

Little John Rockefeller was the first to go out. The guy seemed to be unwilling to stay here for a second. Chaplin and Sisidimill naturally followed him out. But Old DuPont stayed until the end and started to procrastinate with me.

"Andre, why didn't I realize that you are even more cruel than me?" Old Dupont looked at me with a bright smile on his face, which made me not understand. Is this praising me or damaging me? "What do you mean? I regret marrying my daughter to me?" I smiled.

Old DuPont quickly shook his head: "That's not. On the contrary, I feel relieved to see you like this. I'm even more cruel than my old DuPont. Natalia will definitely not suffer any pain when she follows him. Haha, Andre, I was worried before that you are a little too kind now. It seems that this judgment is completely my willing thought."

"You really plan to get involved with those consortiums in the future and fight against us?" I asked at Old DuPont.

"Fight against you? Haha, I don't have such an idea. In the eyes of my old DuPont, there has never been any distinction between enemies and friends. There is only money in my eyes. As long as I can make money, I can spend 10 billion US dollars to buy 10% of your Lockeke TV station, and I can also use 2 billion US dollars to buy 20% of your National TV station's shares like now. For me, whether it is Lockeke TV station or National TV station, there is no difference, it is just my investment. Andre, you don't know me, you have never had any grudges. If there are grudges, it's really money. So if I find that I can get greater returns on your side in the future, I will definitely be on your side. On the contrary, I may also be against you for money. You know, I won't let you go just because you are my son-in-law."

Old DuPont is still the same virtue, snobbish, and snobbish openly.

But I like his temper very much. If you don’t say anything else, at least it’s not as hypocritical as some people. They are intimate with you in person, and they are playing tricks on you behind your back, and they are playing tricks. Old DuPont is not like this. If you do things with him, you just need to think about whether you can bring him money. If you can make money, he will definitely get along well with you, but if you make him suffer heavy losses, then you should consider his revenge.

Such a person is simple and true in nature, which is also the fundamental reason why we two have always been able to tell us about it soon.

"But Andre, as Natalie's father and Wapoli's grandfather, I want to remind you that you must be careful and careful in your work in the future. You also know that it is no longer the Republican world. There are so many people who can't eat well or sleep well every day to plot against you all day. Sometimes, I wonder if you are the only one of Andre Corleon, who doesn't have any three heads and six arms, nor are you superman. Why do you have the ability to disturb those people without any peace at all?"

"Sometimes, I feel tired for those people and want to break your head all day long. If others don't say it, Franklin Roosevelt's hair is falling down and he has started to use vegetative."

When Old DuPont talks about these things, his tone is sarcastic and makes people laugh.

"How capable I am. You can see from the fact that your baby daughter was taken down by me as my wife gave birth to a baby. Do you still have to think about it?" I squeezed my eyes at Old DuPont.

"We'll talk again when we have time, I have to leave." After walking out of the tavern, Old Dupont waved at me and walked away.

"Don't you go see Natalia and Vapori anymore!" I shouted at his back.

"I really don't have time this time, so I won't go. When I have time next time, I will definitely go! Tell Natalia and Vapori that I love them!" Old Dupont didn't look back, stretched out his hand and waved it, and got into the car.

"This old thing!" I shook my head repeatedly as I watched the car gallop away.

"Boss, today we have cut a piece of their meat!" Coolidge stood beside me and said happily.

"Calvin, do you know what I'm thinking now?" I whispered.

"What do you think? Do you think this piece of meat is not enough?" Coolidge smirked.

"That's of course. I'm thinking now that it would be beautiful when I can swallow the Rockefeller consortium."

"You are called greed." Coolidge looked at me, turned around and walked back to the tavern.

"Nonsense, without greed, how can I get the appetite!" I laughed.

"To be honest, Andre. Your greed is a little bit small. You should target the consortium on Wall Street. When can you swallow ten or eight of those consortiums and become the first consortium in the United States? That's what a American "Calvin, you are a bitcher-raising land than me!"

"Nonsense! Otherwise, how could I become the president of the United States and you are just a little director?"

After the "battery" incident on the state TV station, John Rockefeller and others returned to New York in a mess. However, these guys were also trustworthy and immediately let Gans fly over on behalf of Rocketke TV station. In New York, the two sides signed a series of contracts, and the agreement we agreed on that night reached a written document.

This incident naturally aroused enthusiastic media reports. Although most people think that Lockett TV did this ruthlessly, these people were very happy because they also felt it was a pleasure!

In this incident, DreamWorks breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head. However, everyone quickly calmed down their inner pleasure and turned to work hard.

It's July. With our hard work, "The Godfather" has come to an end, and there are fewer and fewer scenes left, and it will basically be completed in a while.

At this time, I divided the director group into two parts. Stiller and Visconti followed me to continue shooting the movie, while Griffith and Bresson began to systematically organize and edit the film we completed and conduct preliminary editing. This way, we can greatly save time.

In July, the craze for blockbusters in Hollywood became more and more intense. The successive screenings of a number of blockbusters that require scenes, quality, artistic and artistic, etc., such as "Troy", "Legend of the Wind", "The Legend of the Wind", "The Legend of the Condorned Ark", etc., which have made Hollywood a hot situation that has never been popular, so many media have defined 1932 as the "Hollywood Year".

After these movies premiered, the following movies also attracted a tsunami-like viewing frenzy.

In early July, the blockbuster "Bible Genesis" invested by Paramount Film Company made its debut. This film was criticized by many film critics as an immortal masterpiece of Hollywood religious films after "The Passion of Jesus", "The Ten Commandments" and "The King of Kings".

Paramount Film Company attaches great importance to this movie, and Adolf Chuck has repeatedly claimed on various occasions that Paramount's hope of winning the trophy at the 1932 Harvey Awards ceremony depends entirely on it.

At the same time, Paramount was also the best among all film companies when promoting this movie.

Because it is the highlight and a huge investment in blockbusters, many Hollywood film companies such as MGM and Warner Bros. deliberately close internal news about the movie when their filming is being filmed. This is a routine that Hollywood film companies have always promoted. This can make the audience feel more and more mysterious, and it can also make them yearn for the movie.

But this time, Paramount Film Company was not like this. They picked out some exciting scenes during the filming of the film and edited them into several five-minute promotional films. Before other films were screened, they would show these promotional films. On the one hand, they would let the audience understand the general content of the film, and on the other hand, because it was only a five-minute promotional film, it was like giving an opium ointment to an opium person, which further aroused the audience's appetite.

Paramount's promotional program is not just about screening the promotional video once. During the filming of "Bible Genesis" for several months, they will produce the latest promotional video as the film progresses, which makes the audience more and more curious about the movie. Finally, when the curiosity of life reaches, "Bible Genesis" premieres.

As a result, the audience almost squeezed out the cinemas where the movie was screened.

It can be said that this time Paramount not only presented a good movie to the audience, but also presented a wonderful publicity model to Hollywood.

The premiere of "Bible Genesis" was a huge success. The film directed by John Houston won unanimous praise from Hollywood filmmakers and the public for its majestic scenes, magnificent religious fanaticism and breathtaking artistry.

The success of this film also continues the trend of winning all Hollywood blockbusters this year!

In the past, when the mid-year period of Hollywood comes, the movies screened by Hollywood film companies often have uneven situations, some of which succeed and some fail extremely badly. However, this year, one is unprecedented and one is popular! It is no wonder that the media calls this year the Hollywood Year.

This victory greatly inspired the major companies within the Red Dragon Alliance because of this glory. For these companies, it has been a long time since they were not obtained.

"Andre, when you asked the film companies within the Red Dragon League to have a collective outbreak, we were still worried, worried about a crushing defeat. Now, that kind of worry is simply ridiculous! Look, now, our movies are popular after each movie comes out, and Hollywood has completely become the world of the Red Dragon League! Lei Dinghua, Columbia, Fox, these films produced by these film companies so far have completely submerged in our vast ocean! It's so cool! It's so cool!" The words Adolf Chuck said to me at the cocktail party after the premiere of "Bible Genesis" were unanimously agreed by Marskolov and his group.

"When Roosevelt came on stage, we were still afraid. Now it seems that what we are afraid of them! As long as we unite and as long as we are united, Hollywood will always be ours under the leadership of Andre! I have thought about it. In the future, I will listen to Andre. We will shoot whatever Andre asks us to shoot!" Marskolov laughed, Sam Warner and others nodded. It can be said that the brilliant victory of blockbusters produced by these film companies within the Red Dragon League not only caused the evil alliance led by Lei Dinghua Film Company to be completely suppressed by us, but also caused the confidence of these film companies in the Red Dragon League to soar, making them sure that as long as they unite, they will not only be able to defend Hollywood's position, but will achieve greater glory!

This form is obviously what I want to see.

In short, "Bible Genesis" should be the first super blockbuster directed by John Houston. This young director has now become the pillar of Paramount Films. Although it was his first directing, the grandeur and calmness that John Houston showed in this movie is as majestic and smooth as that movie. It has been unanimously praised by Hollywood filmmakers.

"In the past, we always said that John Houston was good at shooting medium-sized movies with tight rhythms, so when Paramount told him to direct "Bible Genesis", many people were worried about the young director. John Houston's ability and directorial level were recognized by everyone, but in blockbusters, he really had no experience, especially in such a movie. It is not only the cost of investment, but more importantly, in plot, it is more difficult than ordinary blockbusters."

"Compared with big scenes like "Troy", "Legend of the Wind" or "Raiders of the Lost Ark of the Death", "Bible Genesis" requires more magnificent scenes! In movies like "Legend of the Wind", the big scenes that are monetized are wars. In this regard, although the director's superb scene dispatch ability is required, the objects he dispatches are at least easy to control. Those troops are composed of people, and the director can effectively issue instructions to mobilize them so that they can achieve their predetermined goals."

"But "Bible Genesis" is obviously not that simple. You should know that the content of this movie is a considerable number of people who create the world in order to show that God created the world, the sky collapsed and the earth changed. Many of the big scenes in the middle were formed by changing the nature. The difficulty of such big scenes should be the most difficult thing to express in the blockbuster! Now, it is placed in front of John Houston, who directed the blockbuster for the first time, and in front of a young director."

"But we see that John Houston has almost perfectly completed this difficult task. The sky and the earth are broken, the floods are raging, and the wind and clouds are changing. In the camera of John Houston, it is so magnificent! It's so beautiful that it's suffocating! It's extremely difficult!"

"When shooting a movie like this, it is easy for directors to get into a misunderstanding. This misunderstanding is possible for almost all directors to shoot blockbusters. That is, because the grand scenes in the movie will make the director focus their energy and attention on how to show such grand scenes, and ignore the theme and spirit of the entire movie. This approach is obviously putting the cart before the horse. This misunderstanding is very simple to say. Sometimes, most directors can think of it. But once they enter the shooting, sometimes the director is completely in control. Because the screening time of a movie is basically fixed, one and a half hours, or two hours, in this relatively fixed time

On the other hand, if you have to spend a lot of time and cameras to show the grandeur of these big scenes, it will inevitably compress the sculpting of the theme and the inner spirit of the whole movie. The former must be expressed, because if you do not show these, the theme and inner spirit of the movie will be extremely empty, but the former cannot be expressed too much. If you go too far, the whole movie will become another magnificent scene. When the audience watches it, they may feel very happy, but if you leave the cinema and savor it carefully, they will find that the movie has a huge scene, nothing, no thinking, no art, and nothing that can make people excited or tremble. Such a movie is a failure."

"So, when shooting blockbusters, there is a problem of controlling grand content. How to master this degree is crucial. In contrast, at this point, "Bible Genesis" is the most difficult. First of all, the scenes in the movie are even more grand than ordinary blockbusters, and it takes time to express them. In addition, the theme that this movie wants to express is a praise to God. This theme is a bit empty and difficult to grasp, so it is easier for the director to make mistakes when combined."

"But we see that John Houston solved this problem almost perfectly during the filming. He showed those grand scenes just right, and at the same time, through these scenes, he reached the theme setting of praise to God. What I want to say is that John Houston's most successful thing is that to this extent, he went further and completed the spiritual level of the film."

"Many audiences, including filmmakers, think that this movie is to praise God when talking about this movie. If John Houston did this perfectly in his movie, he would obviously be successful. John Houston did it, but he was not satisfied. On this basis, he improved the spiritual realm of the movie and completed a perfect transformation! He put the final point of the entire movie on people!"

"The sky collapses, the wind and clouds change color, and God creates the world. This is really too broad. Although it is also exquisite, from an artistic point of view, it is like one end of a seesaw, and it is too heavy. It needs to be balanced on the other hand. John Houston shows the value of human beings in his movies. Through the display of God's Genesis, under such a grand background, John Houston has given a series of major philosophical themes to think deeply about human nature, belonging, the meaning of human survival, the good and evil of human nature, and the ultimate truth of life, etc. This movie has not only huge scenes, but also touching details, but also profound artistic thinking, and then transforms from a successful movie into an artistic masterpiece! This leap is amazing!"

"When I was most moved, John Houston showed his unique religious fanaticism throughout the movie. Note that the religious fanaticism mentioned here is not a derogatory term, but an extremely rare thing. Compared with ordinary Hollywood movies, religious movies may be the most difficult type of movie to shoot, because compared with ordinary movies, it has an additional attribute, which is the attribute of faith."

"Religious belief is the brightest thing in the world, the noblest thing, and the thing that people value the most, so there are many harsh requirements for religious movies. It is generally thankless to a director when shooting a movie, because if it is another movie, you make a bad shot and the audience will finish scolding you. However, in religious movies, if you make it so dissatisfied with the audience and even anger them, then what is waiting for you is not just a scolding you and finishing it. This is also the fundamental reason why there are so few religious movies in world movies. This is a very difficult thing."

"The key to a director's success in shooting religious films is that he is a man of religion, and a director with a fire inside his heart will inevitably ignite the raging fire in the hearts of the audience and make them deeply resonate! So, in my experience, if you are an atheist, if you are a director who has no feelings for religion, I suggest you never touch religious films, because if you do that, first of all, you cannot make a real religious film, and secondly, your mistakes will have a fatal impact on you."

"There are very few directors like Hollywood, and there are very few people who have both ability and faith. John Hugh Houston is obviously such a person. In the movie, his fanaticism is almost all the scenes. During the filming, he can use explosives to blow up a mountain, blow up dams and let villages and towns be swallowed by floods, and even crazy enough to lead the crew to erect lightning equipment on the mountain to shoot lightning shots. This is all at risk of life. These shots, if the director does not have that fanaticism and that madness, would be impossible to complete!"

"But John Houston did it! When I watched this movie, I burst into tears. Many people around me were like this. We saw the greatness of God and the excellence of mankind. This movie is an unforgettable masterpiece!"

After the premiere of "Bible Genesis", a long article was published in the "Movie Manual". This article was considered to be the most perfect interpretation of the movie and was reproduced by countless media. "Bible Genesis" was also more life-prominent because of this article.

"Mr. Corleon, your evaluation is my greatest honor!" After this article was published, John Houston excitedly came to thank him in person.

All I did was pat his shoulder.

"Bible Genesis" achieved brilliant success, and after him, there are two movies that are even more exciting!

"Bible Genesis" is the most successful film made by John Houston and the most successful blockbuster of Paramount Film Company. It is of great significance to Paramount Film Company. For the entire Red Dragon League, this film is also unique among many blockbusters, which continues to expand the advantages of major film companies in the Red Dragon League in Hollywood.

"Bible Genesis" should be a symbol, a symbol of the mid-year film schedule in 1932. After the film premiered, people couldn't help but focus on several other films that were on their premiere list.

Three days after the premiere of "Bible Genesis", two more movies appeared one after another. These two movies have longed for the audience.
