Chapter 957 Three little guys
When Spielberg returned, he was accompanied by "Shrek" director Andrew Adamson.
Andrew Adamson has long blond hair and a thin figure. If you look at him from behind, it is easy to identify him as a blonde beauty.
But if anyone has any special expectations of him because of his back, he might be shocked when he sees his face. It’s not that he is ugly, it’s just that he has almost no eyebrows and his brow bones are bare, so when he looks at it,
It looks a bit fierce.
Andrew Adamson was born in the same year as Yu Dong, and even his birthday is later than that of Yu Dong, but he looks much more mature than Yu Dong. Standing together, the two of them even give people the feeling of two generations.
Andrew Adamson was very happy to see Yu Dong and others. He quickened his pace with a smile. When he arrived, he smiled and said, "YU, HCQ, you are welcome to come."
Jimmy next to him joked, "YU, hcq, these two names sound quite rhyming when pronounced together."
Although Hu Changqing was not good at English, he could understand such simple words and responded with a smile, "Hello, hello, long time no see, see you happy."
"Happy, happy, very happy."
Although Hu Changqing did not speak English with standard grammar, these sentences are often used in the United States, so it is not surprising that Andrew Adamson can understand them.
Hu Changqing chuckled, "Andrew, you are a good boy."
Andrew Adamson looked at Yu Dong with a smile and said, "Is the visit of your writers group over?"
Yu Dong nodded, "The trip here in the United States is over. After attending the premiere of "Shrek" today, we will go to Germany tomorrow."
Andrew Adamson regretted, "It was too hasty. When I talked to Joe on the phone yesterday, he even said we could meet together if we had time. He seemed to be very interested in your new script "Inception"."
Jimmy smiled and said, "Well, he has already contacted me. Does he want to invite you to be a lobbyist?"
"That's not the case. Judging from his tone, he doesn't seem to have much hope. Besides, I am committed to the company and will not be a spy for him."
Andrew Adamson's relationship with Deep Space is not a mere partnership, he is also an employee of Deep Space.
Andrew joined PDI Special Effects Studio in 1991. During this period, he did special effects for movies such as "Batman Forever", "A Time to Kill", and "Batman and Robin".
These three movies were all directed by Joe Schumacher, and Andrew can almost be said to be Joe Schumacher’s special effects artist. The two have a particularly good relationship.
Later, in order to take over the production of "Shrek", Deep Space Company merged with PDI Special Effects Studio. As a member of the studio, Andrew also joined Deep Space Company with the studio.
Jimmy had previously considered asking Andrew to participate in the special effects production of "The Lord of the Rings" because Andrew is also a New Zealander, but due to schedule reasons, he ultimately did not participate in the filming of "The Lord of the Rings".
Jimmy smiled and stopped talking about Joe Schumacher. Instead, he asked Andrew about his future plans, "Now that "Shrek" is about to be released, do you have any new plans next?"
Andrew was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that "Shrek" hadn't been officially released yet, and Jimmy started asking him about his new plan.
"Well, I don't have any new plans for the time being, but if nothing else happens, my next step is to prepare to film "Shrek 2". Of course, this will depend on the box office of the first part."
Yu Dong shook his head and smiled, "You don't need to look at the box office of the first part. Just now, reporters outside asked me if I would make a sequel. I told them that no matter how the box office of the first part is, our company will make a sequel to "Monster"."
"Shrek" to make a sequel. You don't have to worry about the box office of the first part, just start preparing the script for the second part. The release date of the first part was postponed due to various reasons, I hope the second part can
Make up for lost time.”
Andrew was very happy to hear that Yu Dong fully supported them in filming the second film, "I will definitely try my best."
Yu Dong smiled. In fact, he still had something to say to Andrew. Just a week ago, Deep Space Company had won the film and television adaptation rights for "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". He planned to wait until Andrew finished filming "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe".
After Shrek 2, this new plan was handed over to Andrew.
…
A few people chatted for a while, and then the premiere ceremony officially began.
Because "Shrek" is a cartoon, the director is the protagonist of today's premiere ceremony. As a special guest, Yu Dong only went up and walked through the scene and did not participate in the speech.
Naturally, there were no surprises at the movie's premiere. The cartoon received unanimous praise from those present, and many professional film critics said they would recommend the movie to ordinary audiences.
After the premiere ceremony, Yu Dong didn't stay too long and took Hu Changqing directly back to the hotel.
After returning to the hotel, Hu Changqing said he couldn't bear it any longer and went back to his room to sleep. Yu Dong went to Yu Hua's room and took a look around first.
Yu Hua and the others were naturally playing cards. Yu Dong stood by the card table and watched for a while before returning to his room.
About half an hour later, Jimmy came back.
When Jimmy arrived, he held several boxes containing CDs and said, "Show me the outline of the jailbreak. This CD contains videos of potential young players. You can take a look."
Yu Dong nodded, took the CD from Jimmy's hand, and asked, "Are there no paper materials?"
"No." Jimmy shook his head and took out a USB flash drive from his pocket. "The information about these children is all in the USB flash drive. In addition to the written information, there are also some photos. You can take a look."
Yu Dong first took the synopsis of "Prison Break" out of his bag and gave it to Jimmy, then plugged the USB flash drive into his computer and started browsing the information on potential stocks that Yunchi had found.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! There is a roster in the USB flash drive. Yu Dongdian glanced at it, and then his eyes widened.
There were many names on the roster, at least fifty or sixty, but Yu Dong casually glanced at three familiar names.
One is Antoine Griezmann, the other is Karim Benzema, and the other is Harry Kane.
After seeing these three names, Yu Dong didn't look at the other names carefully. He looked directly at the serial numbers to find their information. He wanted to confirm first whether these three people were the three people he knew.
After reading the information, I was basically sure that these three people were the three stars of later generations.
Among the three, Karim Benzema is the oldest, almost fourteen years old, and is now in the youth training team of Lyon Football Club in France. His performance in the youth training team is very, very good, and he has the highest rating among the three.
It received a rating of 8.5, which puts it in the category of very talented people.
The other two are younger, Harry Kane is the youngest, and he just turned eight last month.
The reason why Yunchi saw Harry Kane was because this kid is currently in the youth training camp of Arsenal Football Club. His performance in the youth training camp is quite satisfactory and can only be regarded as ordinary, so his score is only 6.5 points.
Another Antoine Griezmann is ten years old this year. Because of his short stature, he was rejected by the youth training camps of many professional clubs. However, Yunchi’s scouts believe that although Griezmann is short in stature, he will not be as tall as an adult.
Too short, good technique, clear thinking when playing football, still has some potential, score is 6.3 points.
Whether it's Harry Kane's 6.5 points or Griezmann's 6.3 points, they both seem to have just passed, which doesn't seem to be good. However, this is already a pretty good score. Some young players' ratings are still not good.
Be lower.
Yunchi's approach to finding players is actually different from how ordinary scouts find players.
They rarely look for young players who are too dazzling, because such players have already been watched by other scouts. If you want to sponsor them, you need to pay too much, and you may also face a lot of competition.
In addition, the appearance of the players is also taken into consideration. The young players on the list, no matter which country they are from, are pretty good-looking, at least they are not ugly.
The reason why Griezmann got a passing score is because he has good looks and is a handsome boy. In the sports world, good looks mean higher commercial value.
After reading the information of these three people, Yu Dong looked at the information of other people and could not find any familiar names.
Yu Dong watches a lot of football. Since he hasn't heard their names, it means these people will probably not appear in the five major leagues in the future.
As the number one sport in the world, football has a lot of people participating in it, but very few people can succeed in the end.
Only a few can eventually become professional players, let alone enter the five major leagues.
In fact, the list sent by Jimmy has exceeded Yu Dong's expectations. In terms of star level, these three children will all be first-line stars in the future, and they are at the top of the pyramid.
It's not easy to have three stars of this level in a roster of 50 or 60 people.
Jimmy over there quickly read the synopsis of the story. After all, it was just a synopsis of the story, and there were not many words in it.
After reading the outline, Jimmy asked Yu Dong with a smile, "How do you like it here?"
“I’ve almost read the information, but haven’t watched much of the video yet.”
"Why don't you watch the video first and then we can talk about it after watching it?"
Yu Dong shook his head, "No, you go ahead and I'll watch their videos later. It's more time-consuming."
"Well, just watch it. Some of the videos don't make much sense." As he said, Jimmy took a picture of the synopsis of "Prison Break" and said, "This story is very good. If you find a handsome male protagonist to play it, it will definitely become a hit."
"Well, as long as you think it's good, then find someone to write the script. As for the protagonist, I'll recommend one to you later and you can see if it works."
"It's up to me to see if it will work. After the director is found, let the director make the selection. I don't have the time. I will throw your outline to the screenwriters and I won't care about the rest."
Yu Dong smiled, pointed at the screen and said, "This list is all from the UK and France, why are there no other countries? Aren't the youth training in Spain, the Netherlands, and Portugal all very good?"
"Of course there is. This is just a partial list. In addition to Europe, we have also looked for it in some places in South America."
Yu Dong nodded, "Then show me the other lists later."
"No problem. It's rare that you are so concerned. I will have other information sent over tomorrow. You can study it carefully when you are free. Maybe you can do it better than those scouts."
"Okay, it's not too early now. If you have nothing to do, go back. I'll watch the videos of these young players myself."
"great, see you tomorrow."
…
The next day, Yu Dong got up early. As soon as he went out, he saw Yu Hua walking in the corridor with his head lowered. He smiled and said, "It's strange that you can get up so early."
Hearing Yu Dong's voice, Yu Hua raised his head, startling Yu Dong, "Oh, you have been beaten by someone, the circles under your eyes are so dark."
Yu Hua rubbed his eyes, "Is it dark? Well, I'm getting older and can't stay up late anymore."
"Don't tell me that you didn't just get up, but that you didn't sleep at all."
Yu Hua nodded, "Played cards all night."
Yu Dong couldn't help but shook his head, "You guys are really capable. When we arrived at the hotel yesterday, both of us said we were tired. We didn't go to bed when we were tired. Instead, we set up a table to play with. We just set it up and played all night.
."
"It's not like that guy from Feiyu. He won't leave after losing money."
Yu Dong sneered and said, "You can pull me down. I think it's not that Feiyu doesn't want to leave after losing money, but it's that you won't want to leave after winning money."
"Hey, if you win money, you can leave. Branded products won't work. I would rather endure physical pain than lose branded products."
Yu Dong rolled his eyes and said, "We are leaving in the afternoon. Do you want to go back and sleep for a while, or follow me to the restaurant to have dinner and then sleep?"
"I'd better go back to sleep and eat when I wake up."
After saying that, Yu Hua wandered back to his room.
Yu Dong pouted and went to the restaurant alone. After arriving at the restaurant, he saw Jimmy, who also had a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
Looking at Jimmy's dark circles, Yu Dong asked curiously, "Did you stay up late yesterday too?"
"Also? Who else stayed up late?"
"You gamblers, why did you stay up so late?"
Jimmy bared his teeth and said, "I stayed up late to write a script."
Yu Dong asked in surprise, "What script, prison escape?"
"Well, it's Prison Break. I originally thought about throwing it directly to the writers, but when I went back last night, the story just couldn't get out of my mind, so I tried to write it, and I couldn't stop writing it."
Seeing Jimmy sighing, Yu Dong realized that Jimmy was also a screenwriter.
"Where's your script?"
"In the room."
"I'll go take a look later."
"Watch and see, but you can only praise, not criticize."
"Don't worry about this. The main theme is one word: praise."
"That's good." Jimmy narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Did you watch the video last night?"
Yu Dong nodded, "After reading some, I think there are three little guys that are good. I will write their three names to you later."
