Chapter 514: Five hundred million dollars

"It's the 21st century now, why is your propaganda plan still old-fashioned!" Lu Qiujian flipped through this propaganda plan, and couldn't help but feel a pain in the face, the content of this is still the same as before, what is forgetting to sleep and eat for work, and having no time to take care of your family when you are sick; what is willing to be poor, refuses the huge annual salary offered by the enterprise, and would rather use the meager salary of the Xihe plan to contribute to the country.

Is this here to publicize or to smear people! If such a program is broadcast, how will I recruit new people at that time? The propaganda department can't keep dragging its feet like this!

"What, what's the problem? That's what we did when we interviewed Yuan Lao and other old scientists before?" Lu Rui asked with an innocent wink.

"Forget it, let's just use your questions! But when the time comes, whatever our staff will answer, you can just publicize it according to his original words! There is no need to use your preset answers!" In fact, the questions they raised are quite reasonable, but the preset answers are a bit depressing. The whole article gives people the feeling that to do scientific research, we must be able to endure loneliness and poverty.

It is true that he can endure loneliness, but the treatment given by Xihe Planning is definitely not bad! The scientist who can work here and the poor are completely incompatible.

"It's just tomorrow that we're going to hold a commendation meeting at the base, so let's go shoot with you when the time comes!

"Okay!" Lu Rui couldn't help but think of the last time she interviewed Lu Qiujian, indeed, how can a person who can afford to ride a million bicycles not be said to be poor! Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and hurriedly asked, "Professor Lu, I heard that you signed an advertising endorsement contract with Apple, and the endorsement fee is 100 million US dollars?"

When she said 100 million US dollars, her voice couldn't help but tremble, the total advertising revenue of the Athens Olympics broadcast by the imperial court television station that year was only 700 million yuan, and Lu Qiujian's income from shooting a short film was almost equal to the income of the imperial court station for a month's hard work; however, due to the instructions of the propaganda department, this figure was not broadcast on the imperial court station. That's why Lu Rui will confirm again with Lu Qiujian.

"yes! The commercial film will probably start filming in the near future! The heroine is Natalie Portman!" Lu Qiujian said lightly.

"Then how much is Natalie's appearance fee?" Lu Rui continued to ask curiously.

"It's not clear that the exact number, it seems to be millions of dollars, right?" Lu Qiujian replied vaguely.

"Well, your appearance fee is $100 million, and Natalie is only a few million?" But compared with Lu Qiujian, it is not worth talking about at all.

The other party is a Hollywood star! Moreover, she is a big star who has won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress, and it is even rumored that she will be the first actress born in the 80s to hope to win the Oscar for Best Actress.

As far as she knew, Yao Ming's annual income in '08 was only $52 million. This is already the No. 1 star income in China! Compared with Lu Qiujian, Yao Ming's hard work in a year is only half of a commercial film.

Lu Rui thought about it and understood that Natalie's influence was limited to the film industry, while Lu Qiujian's aura was much more, Nobel Prize, Fields Medal, Olympic champion, World Footballer, Champions League champion and NCAA champion, he can already be regarded as the most legendary figure in the world today, as long as he is willing to advertise, those big companies are willing to spend more money!

Settle down, take a few deep breaths to soothe your excitement. Lu Rui asked another question that everyone was concerned about, "Professor Lu, what are you going to do with this money?"

While waiting for Lu Qiujian to answer Lu Rui, she secretly speculated that according to her previous experience with other scientists, the money might be used in real life, or donated to charity?

However, Lu Qiujian's answer once again surprised her, "Oh, I plan to use this money to shoot a movie, and now the story and director have been contacted, so I'll wait to talk to him in two days!"

"All the 100 million dollars are used to make movies?" Lu Rui is in no state today, and the news thrown out by Lu Qiujian makes her seem to have returned to when she first entered the industry. I couldn't react for a stupid half a day.

"A big investment of 100 million US dollars! I remember that the film with the largest investment in our country this year is "The King of Kung Fu" by Brother Long and Li Liangjie, and the total investment of this film is only 80 million US dollars! And there is still a lot of water in this number! You have set a record for the investment of our country's films!" Wang Qiju, who came with her, saw that she had not come back to her senses for a long time, so she hurriedly interjected, "That's right." Are you going to spend all that 100 million dollars on making a movie?"

"How could it be!" Lu Qiujian smiled.

Lu Rui was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, but the second half of Lu Qiujian's sentence came over, "$100 million is enough!" I also plan to contribute another $100 million, and Hollywood studios may add the same amount of investment. The total investment in this film is probably about 500 million dollars, right?"

"Five hundred million dollars?!" Lu Rui's brain was dizzy, and she sat on the sofa, the photographer's hand shook, and she almost threw the expensive professional equipment to the ground, and the other reporters who were drinking tea sprayed Wang Qiju's face with a sip of tea, and then coughed desperately, Wang Qiju didn't react at all, and her mind was full of the words $500 million.

Coach, next time I come to interview him, I must be prepared for a quick-acting heart-saving pill! If we all know his roots, I'm afraid that after listening to these words, we will think that I have entered a mental hospital! Listen, 100 million US dollars in advertising endorsement fees, 500 million US dollars in film production fees, bragging is not so bragging!

"Yes, the total investment of this film will exceed 500 million US dollars, and Apple's Jobs wants me to introduce James Cameron from Hollywood, and he will come to Chang'an to meet me in two days!" Lu Qiujian said lightly.

"James Cameron, the one who filmed "Titanic"?" Lu Rui subconsciously reached into his pocket, what about the medicine! My little heart really can't stand this continuous stimulation! )
