Chapter 138 Gunshots Ring Out (Part 1)
Tupac met Frank.
But Frank doesn't remember very clearly anymore.
After all, it happened more than ten years ago. Back then, Tupac was taken in by Xu Jiadong, who had taken him to several dinner parties.
Frank was just a child then, and he only vaguely remembered that there was a little black boy.
But we're old friends!
Tupac has now achieved great success and returned home in glory.
Everyone was very happy to be together, and they inevitably toasted and drank.
Xu Shengjie suddenly regretted coming to the brothel.
He's only nineteen, so he can't drink in public. He can only watch helplessly as Tupac and the others clink glasses.
Actually, Roger wasn't old enough to drink alcohol.
But he had a fierce aura, so nobody paid any attention to him.
The key question is, who is Roger?
Nobady.
Xu Shengjie is now a celebrity, and anyone who knows him knows that he is only 19 years old.
He ordered a sparkling juice, ate the steamed sea bass with a fierce glint in his eyes, and waited menacingly for Roger.
This is the guy; I recommend the third-ranked scholar.
I always felt that there was a hint of schadenfreude hidden in his smile.
There are bad guys in Chinatown!
He was so angry that he took another big gulp of juice.
That evening, Tupac and his two companions returned home having a great time.
This guy got really drunk, so Xu Shengjie had to carry him to a hotel, where they got two rooms.
-
While others pick up corpses by picking up girls, he had to carry around a dark-skinned, drunken old man who reeked of alcohol.
In the hotel, Xu Shengjie became increasingly angry as he thought about it.
So he called Theron to confide in her, and Theron laughed so hard she couldn't speak.
He wasn't a good person either.
The next day, Xu Shengjie took Tupac to the base, where his entourage was already waiting in the lobby.
Xu Shengjie handed the still-drunk Tupac over to Mario. Before parting, he asked Tupac what his plans were. Tupac said he would be going to the recording studio in the next few days to sample and produce beats. Coincidentally, Xu Shengjie was also going to discuss arrangement with Menken in a couple of days, so he made an appointment with Tupac to meet at the recording studio then.
"Be careful lately. It's best to go out with someone and not wander around alone."
Why?
"I've heard a rumor that Puff is going to cause you trouble."
Surprisingly, Tupac didn't ask any further questions.
He merely frowned slightly, then said, "I understand, Jeffrey, thank you!"
"Nonsense, see you in a couple of days."
"good!"
Tupac left with his men.
Meanwhile, Xu Shengjie continued post-production work in the editing room.
The soundtrack for "Run Lola Run" is complete, and Menken contributed a lot to it.
Most of the background music was produced in Vanessa's recording studio, but Xu Shengjie decided to sing the theme song "Run Lola Run" himself.
In the original timeline, this song was written and performed by the director of "Lola".
This guy is indeed talented.
This movie is essentially Tykwer's future savior.
Xu Shengjie felt quite sorry for him, and was thinking that if all else failed, he might recruit him in the future.
The Running Suite could be completed in Vanessa's recording studio.
However, this song, "RunLolaRun," requires a more professional recording studio and the help of a more professional producer.
Manken has agreed and has begun preparations.
Xu Shengjie took advantage of the two days to speed up the post-production process, and the creation of Tomb Raider also accelerated.
December is almost here!
Xu Shengjie hopes to finish all the post-production work before Christmas.
Time flies by in the blink of an eye.
On November 30, Xu Shengjie did not go to the editing room and decided to take a day off.
At the same time, he completed the outline of "My Best Friend's Wedding" and also wrote an outline for another script, "I'm Crazy for Mary".
The reason he thought of this movie was when he was recalling the plot of "The Wedding". He remembered that although the movie starred Jessica Chastain, the actress who played the second female lead, Kimberly Juarez, was a beautiful Hollywood star.
Cameron Diaz!
Last year, she rose to fame with the movie "The Mask".
He's now considered a second-tier Hollywood star.
Thinking of Cameron Diaz, Xu Shengjie was reminded of one of her representative works, "There's Something About Mary".
With a budget of 23 million, it grossed 360 million worldwide.
Since we've already snatched "The Wedding," there's no guilt in snatching "There's Something About Mary" as well.
Xu Shengjie admitted that he was very attracted to Cameron Diaz's beauty in the 1990s.
But he doesn't know Cameron!
Besides, if someone takes a liking to this script in the future, it might be a good thing to get to know Cameron.
The two films are similar in style but slightly different.
Toni Ann chose to write "I'm Crazy for Mary," while Tim Herlich chose "Wedding."
The two of them are very motivated right now.
For her work on the screenplay for "Buffy," Toni Ann earned $90,000, while Herlich received over $50,000. This was undoubtedly a considerable sum for two currently struggling screenwriters.
The fees for movie scripts can be just as high as those for TV series.
With complete story outlines and character designs in hand, the two were ready to write extensively and have a bountiful Christmas and New Year.
Tim had to stay in New York to continue producing Saturday Night Live.
But Toni has already decided that once the script is approved, she will take her children on vacation to Miami.
New York winters are so cold and damp!
At the same time, Xu Shengjie's membership in the Screenwriters Guild was also confirmed.
Actually, it won't be that fast.
However, with the endorsements of Dan Petrie and John Searles, and with Xu Shengjie's first film, "Run Lola Run," already finished filming, and the script for "Buffy" already completed, the requirement of 24 units had long been met.
Herb Sargent, head of the WGAE (Writers Guild of the East Coast) and president of the WGA, approved the expedited review process. Xu Shengjie's Writers Guild membership was approved at the end of November.
Subsequently, Xu Shengjie asked Zhou Wenqiong to pay the membership fee of $1000.
He naturally became a member.
However, the directors' union hasn't finished the process yet.
Despite Dan's endorsement, unions are places rife with factions.
Even Petri cannot make decisions unilaterally; the necessary procedures still need to be followed.
Fortunately, Spike, Sells, and Woody Allen all expressed their approval of him, which made things much easier, even though there were still procedures to follow.
Petri called Xu Shengjie specifically to tell him that the process would definitely be completed in December.
Damn it, another 240 to go!
Xu Shengjie despised this kind of association from the bottom of his heart.
Whether at the University of Tokyo or in the United States, joining such organizations is still very necessary. Especially in the United States, if you really run into trouble, these GHs (Government Advisors) can really stand up for you! Of course, they need to offer some benefits, otherwise no one will work for free.
Regardless, I now have an identity.
Even if Xu Shengjie regrets it now and doesn't want to join anymore, it's too late.
He was too lazy to think about all that nonsense.
He completed the scheduled activities in the editing room in the morning, and then drove straight to the recording studio in the afternoon.
Today is Wednesday, Christina and Britney have to go to school, so they're not in the recording studio.
The two little girls have been working very hard lately.
Xu Shengjie had previously asked them to form a group and even wrote two songs for them.
One is Wannabe, and the other is "2Become1," which I wrote for them a while ago. Yes, they are both songs by the Spice Girls.
Xu Shengjie is indifferent to hot girls.
I dislike Victoria even more.
If Victoria hadn't become famous, would Benitez have stayed at Manchester United?
He wasn't a Manchester United fan, but he still felt a bit disappointed about Benitez's departure.
Damn it, you're so handsome, why get married? Just focus on playing football and having affairs, isn't that better? That way, even if you have an affair with the nanny, no one will bother you, and Brooklyn won't expose the Beckham family's secrets and lose face.
For Beckham, Posh Spice must die!
However, although these two songs were given to Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears, it was only for the performance rights.
Furthermore, the song can only be performed by a duo. All rights to the song belong to Xu Shengjie, but he doesn't want any profits—he plans to establish a foundation to help children who have suffered domestic violence.
First person to help: Britney Spears.
However, Xu Shengjie has not yet taken any action.
Christina and Britney wouldn't care about that. The only problem was Britney's parents, a couple who only cared about money. However, Xu Shengjie had consulted Jessica, and Britney's parents, to save trouble, had transferred her custody to Christina's mother and Manken. As long as they agreed, it would be effective.
Even if her parents pursue the matter in the future, custody is in the hands of Kelvin and Menken, and they have the right to make a decision.
And it's charity!
This is a charitable foundation, which will greatly benefit Britney's reputation.
"They'll lose the lawsuit one hundred percent of the time!"
Jessica patted the plump bear and made a promise to Xu Shengjie.
