Chapter 601: A Big Movie with a Box Office of 1.5 Billion?
I quit my job?
I happened to be on the rise of my career and you asked me to quit?
What does that mean?
Brain-broken?
Under the moonlight.
Andorra looked at James a little dazed.
He didn't know what James meant by this sentence that popped up out of nowhere.
"Mr. James, I only need a few years for this project, and in a few years, the first film I use to test the waters will come out...... Then, in Hollywood, I'm going to be able to create an era, aren't you optimistic about that era?"
After a moment's loss, Andorra felt that James must have been frightened by his crazy thoughts, so he patiently told James about his next plan.
Although I only have a vague concept now, I can create a heroic universe in the future, including the possibility of combining many elements, diversifying and developing together, and the details can be explored slowly......
"Mr. Andorra...... It's not that I'm not optimistic about that era, but ...... In short, you're not the first to have this plan. ”
"What do you mean?"
"A lot of things are confidential issues of the company, and I can't disclose ......"
"Company secrets, are you!" James was stunned for a moment, and then looked at James in disbelief, "Are you ......?"
"Mr. Andorra, I am a disciplined person, I will not divulge anyone's secrets, as a friend, I just kindly remind you...... All I can say is that someone is more ahead of your time, clearer in their thinking than you, and even has a very well-thought-out plan for something that is terrifyingly well planned......"
"Oh God, Mr. James, don't be kidding!"
"Am I like a joker?"
"What about you...... Who's that guy!"
"Sorry...... I can't say anything until you resign, although we are friends now, we are competitors......"
"I see, don't you ......?"
“......”
Andorra was silent.
Andorra sensed that James had changed a little.
There is a feeling of inexplicability.
It seems that he wants to stop talking.
The meal was a little awkward, and after drinking, the embarrassment became deeper and deeper.
There seems to be some estrangement between the two.
In the past, after he expressed his thoughts and thoughts, James would usually make some constructive suggestions, but now......
Everything is starting to look different.
Very thorough to the point of horror......
Ahead of time......
Clarity of thought......
These adjectives all say something.
That's...
On the "remote" entertainment side, there are already people working on this plan.
"Could it be that he is also discussing with those comic book companies?" Andorra, who was silent for a long time, then looked at James.
"No ......"
"That ......"
"I'm sorry, you'll know in two days, and now, I can't say anything...... I'm sorry, Mr. Andorra, I have to leave, and finally, I hope you can resign sooner, I don't know what to say other than that......"
“......”
Andorra watched as James stood up and left.
I don't know why, at this moment, he had an indescribable bad premonition in his heart.
................................................
May 29.
When the first rays of the morning sun shone on the land of Los Angeles, an obscure grocery store in the suburbs of Hollywood was simply renovated and hung with the Chinese word "remote" anime.
When the company opened, there were no firecrackers or other activities.
Everything is so shabby, like a leather bag company.
No one knows what this company does, and no one cares what it does......
In short, in this place where it can be said that there is an inch of land, there are too many companies that are such a mess.
Every day there are openings and there are closings.
In short, these are the norm.
Lu Yuan silently looked at everything in the company, as well as more than a dozen employees who looked immature and were full of curiosity about the future, Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction.
These employees were all recruited by Lu Yuan in the talent market, all majoring in comics, and they were all ......
The kind of person who is poor and will draw comics for you as long as he gives some bread money.
Although the manga industry in the United States is not as good as that in Japan, it is not bad, and several best-selling manga are released every year.
But......
It's a pity, this is like a pyramid, the people who make money are always the top of the pyramid, as for those at the bottom of the pyramid, they are hungry, poor and poor, and they change their careers to do so-and-so harmonious comics......
In short, life is too bleak......
However, even so, there are still a group of people who just persevere and work hard for their dreams.
And these people picked by Lu Yuan are young people who are too poor to be good, but they insist on dreaming for the sake of their dreams......
In Lu Yuan's opinion, these people still have a lot of potential.
"Ladies and gentlemen, from now on, we are about to launch a project called Spider-Man The main author of this project is this Miss Liu Wanqing next to me, everyone, I hope you can assist her to complete this project, I know that you are a group of people with dreams, at this moment, I understand your feelings, before the completion of this project, I will always provide you with the necessities of life, including a certain amount of funds, of course, you will have surprises in the future, as for what surprises in the future, for the time being, it can only be kept secret, everyone, come on!" Lu Yuan looked at everyone and said what he wanted to say seriously.
The morning sun shone on Lu Yuan's face, and Lu Yuan showed a kind and sincere smile, which was hard to resist.
Liu Wanqing, who was next to her, suddenly felt that Lu Yuan's smile seemed to penetrate into the depths of her heart, like this sunshine, which made her unforgettable......
From now on, she is also a member of the "remote" company.
She had a great sense of happiness.
The others looked at Lu Yuan, although they didn't feel anything, and at the moment they were just stuck in the idea that there was a company that could take them in and provide them with some help in life for a short time, but they were still very happy.
Lu Yuan doesn't like to draw some so-called flatbread with them, saying what the future will be.
After saying this, he nodded at everyone and left the company amid applause.
He's busy right now.
In addition to filming the plot in "The Pianist at Sea", he also has to practice playing the piano seriously at night, in addition, he also has to write the script of the movie called "Rocky", at the same time, Lu Yuan also regularly goes to the headquarters of the Micos Cinema Line to see the decoration over there, and then debugs those messy instruments together......
After going to the R book, Lu Yuan had to fly back to Huaxia to participate in the Golden Rooster Award Nomination Award ceremony......
This year's Golden Rooster Award is not the same as previous years' Golden Rooster Awards.
After a series of reforms and adjustments by relevant departments in China, the Golden Rooster Award in November was adjusted to June, and some rules have also undergone a series of rectifications.
The Golden Rooster Awards Gala is scheduled for five o'clock in the evening on June 5......
In short, the messy work made Lu Yuan's brain buzz, and he felt that his head was big.
He didn't know why he had created so much of a mess.
There is no turning back when the bow is opened, after all, I have seen my assets wiped out, and "The Pianist at Sea" will need a lot of expenses in the future......
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan sighed faintly.
I made hundreds of millions of dollars at the beginning, isn't it good to be a happy salted fish?
What do you do in Hollywood, what do you do when you buy a theater?
Isn't it fragrant to put a billion yuan in the company's account?
At night.
When Lu Yuan arranged some filming on the Hollywood side and was about to go to R Ben, Lu Yuan received a call from Wei Fatzi.
"Ah Yuan!"
"What's wrong?"
"The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" is ready to premiere in theaters nationwide on June 1...... Is the theater chain in the United States renovated?"
"June 1st?"
"Well, it's going to be half a month late......"
"It will take another half a month?"
"Well, yes, I'm going to release it with "Chainsaw", "Chainsaw" is almost the end of filming here, James has some ways over there, and a few days ago, James told me that it will be released on June 15. ”
"So, it will be released simultaneously with our movies from those years?"
"Well, yes. ”
"Okay! By the way, Ah Yuan, there is one more thing, you should still be in Huaxia on June 3rd, right?"
"Do what?"
"Our separate company on Taiwan Island, the branch on Taiwan Island is almost decorated now, and everyone hopes that you will cut the ribbon, and at the same time, everyone will ask for a good lottery. ”
"Ribbon cutting, the branch on Taiwan Island is really ......open," Lu Yuan was stunned.
"Yes, Ah Yuan, didn't you agree before?"
"Hmm......" Lu Yuan was slightly silent, and then scratched his head.
Agree, he agreed, but he really didn't expect that Wei Fatzi's speed would be so efficient.
This speed ......
Lu Yuan didn't know what to say for a while.
"Ah Yuan, you say, how much box office can "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" get?"
"Probably tens of millions. ”
"Hahahaha, Ah Yuan, you are so humorous, but I also humored in front of the media. ”
"What are you humorous about?" Lu Yuan felt that the humor in his heart and the humor in Wei Fatzi's heart seemed to be completely different concepts.
"When I was interviewed, I said that the final box office of our movie was only 200 million!"
“???”
"Hey, why is there no sound?"
"You are so bragging, you are not afraid of being scolded by reporters?"
"What kind of braggadocio am I, I'm humble...... Han Lu's "City Fortress" is a big cowhide......"
"What's that?"
He publicly told the media that his film will break the box office of one billion yuan, and it will become the first big movie in the history of Chinese films to break 1.3 billion, which will open the door to Chinese science fiction films, and become a milestone movie like "This Man is from Earth...... Now, all the media is in the news about "City Fortress", and the movie is a hit...... By the way, Ah Yuan, what do you think of this movie?"
"I don't know. After hearing this name, Lu Yuan could only choose to be silent.
"How much do you think this movie has grossed at the box office?"
"I don't know ......"
"Do you think this movie can really break the record in the history of Chinese films?"
“......”
"Wait...... Could it be ......" On the other end of the phone, Wei Fatzi suddenly felt a shock.
....................................
May 31.
Taiwan Island.
Joaquin Branch.
After the interview, Han Lu returned to the company and silently waited for the next day.
The moonlight is as bright as it is.
He suddenly felt a little apprehensive.
Mr. Chen...... Is it really okay for me to say that in front of the media?"
"What's wrong? Are you not confident in yourself, or are you not confident in our whole team?"
"I ...... I always felt a little uneasy. ”
"Are you afraid?"
"No, I'm on the cusp now. ”
"It's all propaganda...... It's all concerns, and I hope you can understand that. ”
"But ......"
"Don't worry, we are invincible in June. Chen Jianfeng patted Han Lu's shoulder, "Go back to sleep well, and wait for the ending tomorrow......"
"Oh. ”
