Chapter 41: Lin Ti returns
"Okay, but I'm tired, don't get your hopes up, you also know that military-themed movies don't sell well. Li Lan said in a soft tone, feeling a little embarrassed to persuade.
"It's okay, if it really doesn't work, forget it, I'll shoot it myself in the future. Lin Ti said with a smile, and at the same time silently calculated in his heart, with the quality of "The Center of the Earth" and the release of Chenguang, it should be no problem to pick up the box office of seven or eight billion yards at that time, and he has five percent of the box office share, if it is calculated at 800 million......
Million?
Not enough......
This movie requires at least 200 million investments.
Forget it, let's talk about it depending on the situation.
"Don't say that, the main reason is that the box office of "Star Rescue" does not meet expectations, and the company's situation is not very good, so let's take a look at it then, if the company does not agree, then my aunt will invest in you privately, and then help you contact some investors. Li Lan is very good at talking, and Lin Ti's heart warms when he listens.
"No need Aunt Lan, there's no hurry, if it doesn't work, forget it, I'll shoot a few more other films to save money. Lin Ti said in a good state of mind, he was not in a hurry.
Compared to when there were no resources before, it is much better now, just move forward steadily little by little, life is like this, many times the more you show that you care about something, it will know how to treat you, and it will not let you succeed, you are calm, and some things will be met unexpectedly.
It's so cheap, what can you do with it?
After a brief chat, Lin Ti just put down the phone and heard his grandfather shouting, he hurried to his grandfather's room, and saw that his grandfather was struggling to get up on the bed, Lin Ti took two steps forward to help him up: "Grandpa, what do you want to do?"
Grandpa was like a child: "I want to drink milk." ”
Lin Ti took him a carton of milk funny, and saw that his grandfather drank a carton of milk with tons and tons of two sips, he suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Grandpa, this is about to eat, you drink milk again, will you not eat again?"
Grandpa frowned, and said with disgust: "Your grandmother's cooking skills have not grown for decades, and I heard her say that today's fried potatoes." ”
"Her potatoes are salty and old, I can't eat them, I'll eat less if I drink some milk, and you will take this box and throw it away, don't tell her. ”
Lin Ti couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, I won't tell her." ”
Dozens of minutes later, when my grandmother cooked the meal and saw that my grandfather had eaten less, I went to see the milk carton for the first time, and after I understood it, I recalled it, and suddenly straightened up and became angry, pointing at my grandfather and saying, "Who let you drink milk and skip meals at this time!"
"You old thing, don't you want to live anymore?! What should I do if you don't want to live? You must finish this bowl of rice for me today!"
Lin Ti smiled in the next room.
Grandpa, even if I lose the box, do you think you can hide from your grandmother who has been in charge of you for decades?
Naive......
Lin Ti was thinking about it, and his grandfather's stubborn voice came from next door: "I didn't drink it!
Lin Ti: "......"
Co-author has been thinking about selling his grandson for a long time, right......
There was a commotion at home, the voices of aunts and aunts persuading grandma, and the chatter of fathers and uncles were mixed up.
That's life.
In the afternoon, my aunt and aunt were leaving, today was the fifth day of the new year, and they were going back to work, and they took turns to greet their grandfather's bed before leaving.
"Dad, wait a few days for you to get better, and we'll take you to Yangcheng to play." ”
"You pay attention to your body at home, you should eat, you don't always want to take medicine. ”
"Dad, tell us when you want to go to Yangcheng!"
"We're gone......"
Sending her aunt away, grandma began to wipe her tears, Lin Ti walked up to grandma and hugged her shoulders and comforted: "Don't cry, grandma, aren't we still at home." ”
"Yes. Grandma nodded with red eyes, her eyes kept looking in the direction they were leaving, and she just looked at them...... Drifting away.
Lin Ti stayed at home for a few more days, and the day after his aunt and they left, he went to the county town on the side to watch a "Star Rescue", and after a movie, Lin Ti's face was already full of seriousness.
The situation is much more serious than he imagined, the 120-minute movie, it may be that director Deng Huatao wants to talk about a lot of things, such as human nature in that situation, and digging deep into the characters, but he didn't control the rhythm well, making the whole film look a little boring most of the time, the special effects are very shocking in big aspects, but the details, such as the scenery on the planet, creatures, etc., are not rich enough.
In short, in Lin Ti's opinion, there are many problems, not that the movie is bad, but it lacks something exciting to do, and he can't feel the feeling of being eager to share it with others.
This is a movie that I watched for the first time and didn't want to watch it a second time, and because of the rhythm problem, the foreshadowing was not enough, and the places that should be moved were not moved.
To have a box office of 660 million in five and a half days is already a big investment and Li Yifeng's appeal is strong, and now the theater chain is already reducing emission films, and the follow-up box office is not easy to say.
And the facts also prove Lin Ti's vision, starting from the afternoon of the sixth day, the reputation of "Interstellar Rescue", which was already in decline, fell precipitously, and was beaten into the ranks of bad movies overnight, and the box office was cut in half, from 70 million the previous day's box office fell to less than 40 million.
This is good, all of China knows that "Interstellar Rescue" is a bad movie.
Knowing this news, it is not surprising that Li Lan has not replied about the new movie, and Lin Ti stayed at home to write the script of "No. 003", but compared to when he first came back, he could feel that his heart was starting to stir.
On February 9th, Lin Ti received a call from Li Lan when she was basking in the sun at home, and her voice sounded a little tired: "Xiao Ti, have you rested? If there is nothing to do, come back quickly." ”
Lin Ti was silent for a while, nodded and said, "Okay." ”
didn't talk much, the two quickly hung up the phone, and after putting away the phone, Lin Ti sighed, it seemed that the situation was much worse than what he saw......
The next day, February 10th, Lin Ti said goodbye to his grandparents early in the morning: "Grandma, you will go to Yangcheng or us to live in March, and when you leave, I will ask my father to find someone to build a villa for you to live in." ”
"I don't want a villa, I want a villa, and I'm tired of climbing the stairs when the time comes. Grandma said with a frown.
"I'll install the elevator for you," Lin Ti said with a smile.
"I don't want to. Grandma said stubbornly.
When their generation was young, they were really used to it, and the first thing that came to mind when they heard about the villa was not how much they enjoyed, but how much it would cost!
Lin Ti no longer persuaded him, and when the time came, he just did it quietly: "Okay, then I'll go." ”
"Yes. Grandma's expression suddenly became sad, she lowered her head and didn't speak, Lin Ti was a little funny, grandma is so old, why is she the same as a little girl now, I remember when he was young, grandma's temper was so fierce that he didn't dare to make a sound.
He looked at ......
Saddened.
After hugging his grandmother and finally waving goodbye, Lin Ti stepped on the train to Tianhai.
It's his turn.
