After the movie ended, Han Chudong's two friends left, and Steve Spielberg did not leave.

When he was walking in the courtyard with Han Chudong, he asked: "At the price you negotiated with Universal Pictures last year, the global box office must be at least $70 million or more to recover the cost." And that's just recovering the cost, more than $70 million to make a profit, and it puts a lot of pressure on me, I mean, if something goes wrong, it won't kick me out of the Resident Evil crew, right? ”

"When Jaws is released and the box office is counted, you will definitely already start shooting that new movie, and it may even be finished by then, so there is no need to worry that I will replace you for no reason, I can see the logic from your movie, this is what I need. ”

The yard is relatively large, and the house is located in the middle, surrounded by flowers and trees, surrounded by high walls, and at the same time, trees are used to add some concealment.

Little Orika, who almost hung up because of canine distemper and survived after being injected with the new vaccine, was following behind Han Chudong at this time.

A large Alaskan Malamute, which has become more energetic with the recent colder weather, not only shaves but also relies on air conditioning to survive in the summer. On weekdays, he sticks to whoever he sees, and he is unsuspecting, and he is really not the type that can take care of the home, so the bodyguards also suggested that they should raise one or two more ferocious dogs such as bull terriers and bulldogs, Han Chudong was afraid that they would fight, so he didn't agree, and spent money to purchase a batch of visual devices for monitoring.

Steve Spielberg didn't know that the reason why he was valued by Han Chudong was also a special feeling.

Thinking that "Resident Evil" will start filming at the end of January, it seems that it will really be completed when the time comes, so he suddenly stopped being entangled, and asked instead: "I have a question, why were you willing to spend so much money to invest in the work shot by my rookie director?"

Han Chudong smiled and said nonsense: "A friend knows the general plot and recommended this movie to me, don't ask who it is, it's not convenient to reveal it to you, and I am personally more interested in this kind of disaster movie, I think it can mobilize the audience's emotions, so I talked to the people from Universal Pictures about buying it out, the process was easier than I imagined, it seems that they are not like me, thinking that it can achieve far more box office results than expected." ”

When Steve Spielberg heard this, he subconsciously thought that Han Chudong knew someone in the senior management of Universal Pictures, so it was inconvenient to disclose it.

I was stupid to ask the end about this kind of thing, and my emotional intelligence was not bad, and I replied with a smile: "As long as the post-publicity is sufficient, I am sure that you will recover the cost by "Jaws", I don't know the high-level executives in Universal Pictures who can make decisions, but my friends there are all sorry that they chose to sell this movie to you, and feel that it will make the company lose a good movie." ”

Just the right amount of self-selling and boasting, young people, there will always be this arrogance.

Han Chudong smiled on his face and said: "I'll know when it's released, I must do my best to make the movie "Resident Evil" well, you should be able to see from the end of the script that the story is not finished yet." If the first one succeeds, there will be sequels later, maybe three, or five, or more, maybe this is your chance to become a first-line director, as long as it is filmed well, I promise that you will never be short of good scripts. ”

When others say this kind of thing, it is easy to think that they are bragging, but Steve Spielberg has not forgotten that the Chinese next to him, who is a few years younger than himself, is one of the richest people in the world, and an impulse instantly appeared in his heart, as if he had seen the day when he became famous, and said with a serious expression: "Please rest assured, I will definitely put all my energy into it, if even this kind of script is ruined, then I might as well jump off the Golden Gate Bridge." ”

"I'm sure you can, by the way, have you heard of any interesting scripts or movies being filmed recently? The two DreamWorks movies won't be released until December this year at the earliest, and it's still too small to be released, and your shark hasn't been released for half a year. ”

As a director, understanding the market is a basic skill.

Steve Spielberg replied fluently: "There's a movie called 'Crazy Asylum Leap' that interests me, but the producers value it very much, and even if you can buy it like Jaws, the price will be huge, and even though it's just finished, people say it has a chance to win an Oscar." There's also the movie "Hot Afternoon," which is based on true events and tells the story of a bank robbery, which I often hear people talk about. In addition, there are also war films "Nashville", "Love and Death", which tells the story of the assassination of Napoleon, etc., which should be released this year, which is considered our competitor, if necessary, I can count a list and give it to you. ”

"That's a great thank you, it's better to pick out the films that are in the pipeline, and I want to pick some of them as supplements. ”

Han Chudong plays movies, is willing to spend money, and has great ambitions, which are a bit child's play in Steve Spielberg's eyes.

However, the new director did not say what he thought in his heart, the number of contacts was not much, and the relationship was not good enough to say anything, even if it may be some kind reminders, it will always be like offending people.

He only said to Han Chudong: "It should be able to be counted tomorrow and night, will it be sent here then?"

"Directly hand it over to my secretary, they will help bring it to me, how did you come here tonight, I asked someone to drive you home?"

"No, I just bought a new car, so I won't bother, Mason......"

————————————

As soon as the 5th ended, the employees began to return to the company to clock in and go to work, and the goods produced in the factory continued to be shipped to various places, and the backlog of things was waiting to be resolved.

Assistant Arthur helped to organize the day's schedule, most of which were meetings with company executives, from half past eight in the morning to twelve at noon, leaving half an hour for dinner and rest, and continuing the meeting in the afternoon.

Only when he sees these schedules will Han Chudong remember that he has won so many companies and has so many things to do.

After coming to the office, he made himself a cup of coffee, brewed it himself, and asked Arthur to bring a cup with a coffee pot, during which he asked: "What's going on with Aurora Games, I thought it had been resolved, why did Bushnell turn his face again?"

Assistant Arthur shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "Isn't it black-hearted, so far I haven't earned a penny from Aurora Games, and I have invested a lot of money, but Atari can bring him hundreds of millions of dollars in profits every year, and the Bushnell CEO wants to tear his face with you......"
