Chapter 1049 The Future Oscar Winner
When the plane from Los Angeles, USA, landed safely at Kai Tak Airport, Tom Hanks let out a long breath.
When he saw such a complicated surrounding situation and the surrounding houses, for a moment, Tom Hanks felt that he might have to say goodbye to this world.
As an ambitious young man who had just started his Hollywood career, he certainly did not want to pass away like this.
If it weren't for the fact that the person he wanted to meet was so powerful, Tom Hanks would not have been willing to cross the entire Pacific and come to such a strange place.
But after arriving in Hong Kong, and sitting in the car that came to greet him, driving through the streets full of British style, Tom Hanks' mood improved again.
At the same time, his sense of expectation was heightened by an uneasiness.
The 25-year-old Tom Hanks has started his acting career for three years. He is an actor who has appeared in many TV series and movies, but has never had any good works.
However, this summer, a person claiming to be from Kirin Film Company came to Tom Hanks and strongly invited him to join Kirin Film Company.
Qilin Film Company is such a company, of course Tom Hanks knows it.
He also went to see "Speed of Life and Death" filmed by Yin Jun, the boss of Qilin Film Company. Although it didn't make much sense, the entire atmosphere rendering, rhythm control, and the design of various action scenes were all very outstanding and absolutely worthy of it. It simply puts the good results of "Superman 2" below it.
Kirin Film Company cannot be considered an outsider in Hollywood, because it acquired United Artists Film Company, one of the seven major Hollywood companies, at the beginning of the year. By the way, Disney, which makes theme parks and animations, was also acquired by them. The two companies After the merger, it became one of the top three large entertainment groups in Hollywood.
Tom Hanks was very excited to join such a company, and they also promised Tom Hanks that they would give him the leading role and tailor a movie for him.
However, when the negotiations actually started, Tom Hanks realized that he was happy too early.
Qilin Film Company is preparing to cultivate itself well, but the conditions they gave are too harsh.
The first is a 15-year filming agreement, which means that you can only film with them for 15 years. Even though California does not allow such overbearing clauses, there are many regulations in it to ensure that after the contract is signed, , will be executed.
The second type of contract is to shoot 10 movies for Kirin Film Company within 20 years. The price is increasing step by step. But the problem is that giving them all ten movie contracts in one go is equivalent to almost ten movies. I will devote all my time to Qilin Film Company.
Two different contracts, neither of which suited Tom Hanks's heart, so he rejected it immediately.
However, when the next film "Beverly Hills Cop" produced by United Artists Pictures once again shone in the global film market, Tom Hanks really had a heartbeat again.
Who is Eddie Murphy?
Before going to Xiangjiang, I couldn't even be a regular guest on variety shows, I could only be an occasional substitute.
But as soon as I went to Xiangjiang, under the cultivation of Yin Jun, I made my debut with "Police Academy", then played a major supporting role in "Speed", and now I have made a breakthrough with "Beverly Hills Cop" Became a hot new star!
The entire time has not even taken him three years!
In just two years, Eddie Murphy went from unknown to a big star. This experience is enough to make any Hollywood actor who aspires to become a star envious.
At the same time, they also admired the Oriental genius boy who created Eddie Murphy even more, and they wished they could win his favor and become the star he promoted!
It was at this time that Tom Hanks met the staff member of Kirin Film Company again. This time he did not persuade Tom Hanks to join Kirin Film Company, but gave him a ticket to fly to Hong Kong.
"Our chairman, Mr. Yin Jun, wants to talk to you. If you have expectations for your future, go to Xiangjiang!"
The staff said this to Tom Hanks.
And Tom Hanks did feel a little flattered that Yin Jun personally invited him. After thinking about it for a day, he decided to come.
Tom Hanks was different from Stallone. When he came to Xiangjiang, he did not cause any sensation. Even the staff of Kirin Films who came to pick him up did not know who he was.
Of course, Tom Hanks stayed at the Peninsula Hotel. This style made Tom Hanks more familiar and reduced his sense of unfamiliarity.
Tom Hanks took a shower in the hotel, took a rest, and then went to the cafe for afternoon tea. The fatigue from the journey dissipated.
At this moment, he saw a young man walking over.
In Europe and the United States, where the media is developed, Yin Jun's photos have been published in weekly magazines many times. When Tom Hanks came to Hong Kong, of course he paid attention to Yin Jun's appearance.
For people in Europe and the United States, the recognition of Easterners is not very high. If you don't recognize them clearly, it will be embarrassing.
When the plane from Los Angeles, USA, landed safely at Kai Tak Airport, Tom Hanks let out a long breath.
After more than ten hours of flight time, he was already very tired, but when he saw such a complicated surrounding situation and the surrounding houses, Tom Hanks immediately became nervous.
For a moment, Tom Hanks felt that he might say goodbye to this world.
As an ambitious young man who had just started his Hollywood career, he certainly did not want to pass away like this.
If it weren't for the fact that the person he wanted to meet was so powerful, Tom Hanks would not have been willing to cross the entire Pacific and come to such a strange place.
But after arriving in Hong Kong, and sitting in the car that came to greet him, driving through the streets full of British style, Tom Hanks' mood improved again.
At the same time, his sense of expectation was heightened by an uneasiness.
The 25-year-old Tom Hanks was not originally a student majoring in acting, but he entered the entertainment industry because he liked acting.
It has been 3 years since he started his acting career. Tom Hanks is an actor who has appeared in many TV series and movies, but has never had any good works.
However, this summer, a person claiming to be from Kirin Film Company came to Tom Hanks and strongly invited him to join Kirin Film Company.

However, when the negotiations actually started, Tom Hanks realized that he was happy too early.
Qilin Film Company is well prepared to cultivate itself. The conditions they agreed to are all written in the contract, but the conditions they require of themselves are really too harsh.
The first is a 15-year filming agreement, which means that you can only film with them for 15 years. Even though California does not allow such overbearing clauses, there are many regulations in it to ensure that after the contract is signed, , will be executed.

The entire time has not even taken him three years!
In just two years, Eddie Murphy went from being an unknown to a big star. Such experience and luck are enough to make any Hollywood actor who aspires to become a star envious.
At the same time, they also admired the Oriental genius boy who created Eddie Murphy even more, and they wished they could win his favor and become the star he promoted!
It was at this time that Tom Hanks met the staff member of Kirin Film Company again. This time he did not persuade Tom Hanks to join Kirin Film Company, but gave him a ticket to fly to Hong Kong.
"Our chairman, Mr. Yin Jun, wants to talk to you. If you have expectations for your future, go to Xiangjiang! If you talk, I believe he will give you a satisfactory answer."
The staff said this to Tom Hanks.
And Tom Hanks did feel a little flattered that Yin Jun personally invited him. After thinking about it for a day, he decided to come.
This is a good thing about Americans. They like to try and are willing to try. Even if the hope is not high and it requires traveling thousands of miles to talk, Tom Hanks is not afraid.
For a Chinese, it would be very troublesome to leave the city where you live, let alone go to a foreign country thousands of miles away to talk about something that may not necessarily succeed - this is simply mindless behavior!
Tom Hanks was different from Stallone. When he came to Xiangjiang, he did not cause any sensation. Even the staff of Kirin Films who came to pick him up did not know who he was.
Of course, Tom Hanks stayed at the Peninsula Hotel. This style made Tom Hanks more familiar and reduced his sense of unfamiliarity.

In Europe and the United States, where the media is developed, Yin Jun's photos have been published in weekly magazines many times. When Tom Hanks came to Hong Kong, of course he paid attention to Yin Jun's appearance.
For people in Europe and the United States, the recognition of Easterners is not very high. If you don't recognize them clearly, it will be embarrassing.
So he immediately judged that this handsome boy was the genius boy Yin Jun, the chairman of Qilin Film Company who invited him here!
Tom Hanks quickly stood up and extended his hand to Yin Jun with a smile: "Mr. Yin Jun? Hello, I am Tom Hanks. I am very happy to meet you here!"
"Hello, hello." Yin Jun also smiled and shook hands with him before sitting across from him.
Different from Uncle Tom who gained weight in middle age, Tom Hanks is still a young boy with thick eyebrows, big eyes, prominent edges and corners, and is very handsome.
But there are too many such people in Hollywood, and he doesn't stand out.
In fact, most of the stars who have become famous in Hollywood are not handsome guys, but rather distinctive men who are more likely to stand out.
"Tom...is it okay if I call you this?" Yin Jun said, "How does it feel to come to Xiangjiang?"
"Except the air is a little more humid, I don't feel much different from Los Angeles, but it is more like London, England, which I have been to before. After all, this is a place managed by the United Kingdom... and the United Kingdom." Tom Han Kers said, "But the people here are all Easterners. They give this city a different feeling from London, which is very unique."
I don’t know if Tom Hanks was talking about the scene, but Yin Jun smiled and said: "Thank you for your compliment. It won’t take long for you to see what kind of things the people here and I have created." A cinematic miracle.”
"In fact, from the moment "Speed" was screened, I knew that there is more than just Hollywood in this world. Hong Kong, the Eastern Hollywood, will also have a strength that cannot be ignored." Tom Hanks complimented, "What's more, you are here, Mr. Yin. You are a greater film genius than Li Xiaolong. He can only drive the progress of one category of movies, but you drive the entire Hong Kong movie."
Knowing that Tom Hanks was flattering, Yin Jun couldn't help but laugh.
There are two most famous Toms in Hollywood, one is Tom Hanks and the other is Tom Cruise, but they are two completely different people.
The previous Tom had a very high emotional intelligence. Even though he didn't make many movies later, his status in Hollywood was still very high.
The emotional intelligence of the latter Tom is a bit worrying. Let’s not say what kind of leader he is. Let’s just say that he fell out with his wife and manager successively. In the end, he could only rely on one "Mission: Impossible" in Hollywood. To continue his film career, it seems like a failure as a human being.
Now Yin Jun can see that Tom Hanks has high emotional intelligence, which is really a talent. He can speak so smoothly and calmly at the age of 25. How can ordinary people do it?
"You are very good at talking, Tom." After smiling, Yin Jun looked him up and down, "But your current image is too handsome and handsome to be good."
Tom Hanks is so smart, how could he not understand what Yin Jun meant?
He immediately said seriously: "Mr. Yin, if it is necessary for acting, I will definitely change my image."
Yin Jun nodded, "Have you seen "Forrest Gump"?"
"I've seen it." A hint of surprise flashed in Tom Hanks's eyes, and his hands were trembling: "I've seen it many times, and I like the character Forrest Gump very, very much!"
"Very good." Yin Jun said, "The filming of "Forrest Gump" will start the year after next. If you are ready, you can go back and take over the two films. After practicing for a while, start preparations!"
After hearing what Yin Jun said, Tom Hanks' expression calmed down.
He understood what Yin Jun was talking about. If the contract with Qilin Film Company could not be negotiated, then this role would not be his.
But thinking of the novel that caused a sensation in the United States, Tom Hanks felt that it was a pity to give up!
Such a classic novel will definitely make it famous if it is filmed!
Didn’t I just want to have such a movie through my hard work and search?
but!
Whether it is a 15-year contract or a 20-year 10-film contract, they are both extremely demanding. If there is even a chance, Tom Hanks will definitely not sign it.
"Tom, I know you are a genius in acting, but what Hollywood is most indispensable for is talent." Yin Jun looked at him and said slowly: "You have to know that our resources are limited, and we cannot give it to everyone. People. I hope that with the help of Qilin Films, you can reach the top of Hollywood! Believe me, if we work together, you will definitely be able to do it!"
"I need to think about it again." Tom Hanks took a deep breath and rejected the urge in his heart.
"good!"
Yin Jun said, "You should think about it carefully these days!"
He wasn't worried at all.
Since Tom Hanks is willing to come to Xiangjiang, he has actually shown his inner tendency, just like Stallone and Bruckheimer!
