Chapter 443

$63.49 million at the box office.

In the midst of everyone's doubts, "Forrest Gump" has created one box office miracle after another.

The total global box office in the first week was $329.44 million.

In the second week, the global box office not only did not decline, but increased slightly.

$345 million.

As for "The Girl Dancer", because of the box office, the screening has long ended.

Jayne's status in the company has also plummeted, and he has even been hidden by the company.

The sneering expressions of the top leaders still echoed in his mind.

"You didn't cherish the last opportunity given to you by the company, and you just cared about fighting with Huaxia Li.

Hua Xia Li is a genius in the entertainment industry, he can make a billion-dollar movie in a month, but you are a pragmatic director, and if you want to make the same movie, it will take a year or more.

There is an old saying in China, I remember it very clearly, people have self-knowledge, and live to learn from all the time.

Many Hollywood directors know that they will not fight to the death with Huaxia Li.

Because they know what they are capable of. ”

After saying this, without waiting for Jayne to say anything, he walked out without looking back.

This incident hit Jain really hard.

He's even starting to doubt himself.

In the dead of night, he asked himself, is he really inferior to Li Dabao?

After this incident, he became suspicious of himself.

But he also knows that even if he wants to prove himself, he doesn't have that chance.

The company won't give him that chance.

Li Dabao didn't know that Jayne's self-confidence had been completely shattered by him.

He was filming "Titanic" at this time.

During the shooting, I encountered many, many problems.

This requires Li Dabao to learn slowly.

He knew that it was difficult to shoot this movie, and he also thought about filming "Avatar", but he didn't do that, after all, the difficulty of filming "Avatar" was that too many special effects were used, and the cost of this special effects was quite expensive.

It's all measured in seconds, and a second can cost millions of dollars.

There is another one, he just wants everyone in the film industry to take a look, not that literary films are not profitable, but the problem of the creative team.

Li Dabao began to throw money into the movie frantically.

This made everyone in the film industry question that the money made from the previous movie was smashed into it like this, and only a loser like him would do this.

In everyone's hearts, they think that this movie is a small fight, and the reason why Li Dabao said that it is an investment of 200 million US dollars must contain a huge amount of water.

But in fact, less than a third of the way through the filming of the film is now, and $100 million has already been spent.

This made Shangguan Qing'er worried.

Seventy percent of Dabao Studio's funds were smashed into this movie.

Even the proceeds of the early settlement of "Forrest Gump" were thrown in.

She really thought that this movie would burn money, but she didn't think that this movie would burn money so much.

Although worried, she still chose to stand behind him and silently support him.

Gradually, doubts appeared among major media and netizens.

"Li Dabao's "Titanic" has invested 100 million US dollars, so much money has made Dabao Studio completely fall into a place of no return, if you are not careful, Dabao Studio will be dragged down by "Titanic". ”

Some netizens commented that Li Dabao has a nickname since then, Li Daring, there are only things you can't think of, and there are no things that Li Dabao doesn't dare to do. ”

"Didn't some film companies say they wanted to support Li Dabao before? Why don't you see them come out and make a statement now?"

"What are you kidding? If a literary film can recover its cost, it will already burn high incense, so that so many people will not rush up stupidly.

The reason why everyone says that is also to pull in the relationship with each other.

If you want to throw money into a movie that loses money, is it okay to cut a piece of meat off them?

Dabao Studio closed down before it was seen.

I guess not only did these people not think of lending, but now they may be discussing how to carve up the cake of Dabao Studio. ”

At one o'clock in the morning of the next day, Li Dabao solemnly posted on Weibo, saying that "Titanic" had to accept financing because of insufficient funds in the later stage of filming.

He really didn't want to do it, but he knew how much money the movie had earned in his previous life.

It can be said that because of this movie, the two major companies of Fox Films and Paramount Pictures quickly became the ranks of Hollywood entertainment predators.

But there is no way, if he continues to shoot, Dabao Studio is definitely in danger of being dragged down.

This is something he hadn't considered before.

"Titanic" also encountered the same thing in the previous life Cameron during filming.

Cameron encountered a shortage of funds when he was filming, and he was not favored by anyone, and he didn't expect it to be the same in this life.

Cameron was subjected to cynicism from investors and other directors.

However, Li Dabao is relatively better, because he has the universe invincible follow-up system.

Suffice it to say, he doesn't lack anything at all now.

He just wants to prove his existence.

By this time, the filming progress of "Titanic" had slowed down.

If you don't, Dabao Studio will be in real danger.

Even so, the daily consumption of the crew of "Titanic" is amazing.

To his disappointment, however, no one contacted him.

That's it, one day, two days.

Li Dabao has given up.

Shangguan Qing'er walked over and poured him a cup of tea.

"Dabao, let it go, let's start anew, okay?" Shangguan Qing'er persuaded with a smile.

"Let it go?" Li Dabao said bitterly, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was answering Shangguan Qing'er.

Being able to shoot "Titanic" has always been a dream of his.

The dream was just given up?

Does it really have to be like this?

But he also knew that if he wanted to complete the shooting, it would cost at least $150 million.

This is definitely not a small amount.

With such a huge amount of money, there are only a handful of companies that can come up with so much money at once.

There are only a few big companies that invest in films.

And taking out so much money is not something that these companies can decide on alone.

A bad one will ruin the results of these companies' hard work for so many years.

So there are no people who dare to do that.

I didn't expect it to be such a result.

Suddenly, Li Dabao's gaze was firm.

"Mortgage Dabao Studio to the bank and borrow $200 million. Mortgage all the patents. Even if I start from scratch, I'm going to make this movie.

I'm going to show those who look down on me how the movie is made. Li Dabao said categorically.

Li Dabao posted on Weibo again: "I'll give you another day to think about it, I really don't know why you can't understand it, financing now, can't you think of the benefits in the future?"

What did I Li Dabao do and lose money?

You can say that follow me, I will never let everyone suffer.

One day, this is my chance for everyone, a chance to soar.

Everyone should cherish it, you must know that there is no such store in this village. ”

Li Dabao's Weibo has set off a huge storm in the entertainment industry.

What do you mean?

Do you give someone a chance?

It's as if everyone is begging you.

"Bao Ye deserves to be Bao Ye, and the way of asking for people is different from others. I'm wondering if the box office of "Forrest Gump" won't come down soon?

I heard that the preliminary calculation is that there is a billion dollars at the box office.

If it is in the hands of Li Dabao, how can there be 300 million US dollars?

Can't Bao Ye wait?"

"You don't know. Even if there is a box office of one billion US dollars, it is estimated that it will be 200 million US dollars in the hands of Bao Ye. This thing is very slow, I heard that Bao Ye has already taken 50 million US dollars, even if it adds this 150 million, it is still not enough. That's why he's going to raise money.

And the daily consumption of a big crew like "Titanic" is also quite amazing. ”

"Bao Ye's thoughts are different from others. ”

Not a single person contacted Li Dabao, not even many of the people he had worked with before.

They all pretended not to see.

The day passed slowly.

Li Dabao didn't even rest much.

The next day, he told Shangguan Qing'er with a pair of panda eyes: "No matter what method you use, borrow 200 million US dollars from the bank." ”

Li Dabao was also ruthless this time.

He was very sad, he didn't expect that things would come to this point.

No one lended a helping hand.

No one helped him in this time of crisis.

$100 million is not a small amount.

Dabao Studio has just stepped into the right track, preparing to sprint to a first-class entertainment company in China, and is preparing to change the studio into an entertainment company.

Li Dabao actually used such a huge amount of money.

In the eyes of many industry insiders, Li Dabao should take a slow, and in another year or two, when the time is ripe, filming "Titanic" is definitely a breeze.

If it succeeds, it's fine, but if it fails, Dabao Studio will definitely fall into a place of no return.

It will not be easy for it to regain its former glory.

What's more, Dabao Studio does not pay attention to cultivating newcomers, and puts all the treasures on Li Dabao.

Professional people know that no matter how talented a person is, it is impossible to create a steady stream of good works throughout his life.

Focusing on cultivating new talents is the primary issue, and only with the continuous injection of fresh blood can enterprises develop vigorously.

In the eyes of many people, people who are as smooth sailing as Li Dabao and who are lucky will always fall one day.

Li Dabao is a stark example.

For a while, he was about to become a negative textbook.

After a few more days, Shangguan Qing'er found Li Dabao and said sincerely with a hint of pleading: "Dabao, give up, okay?"

Li Dabao knew from Shangguan Qing'er's tone that the loan of 200 million US dollars from the bank was not successful.

He didn't say anything, just sat in his chair, and since he came here, he had never experienced such a big trouble.

It is understandable that such a large amount of money has not been loaned out of the bank.

If the film succeeds, it's definitely a big credit, but what if it doesn't?

If something goes wrong, no one can afford to take the blame.

"Dingdong, why don't you go out for a walk?

Pete, the world's god of dance, will hold a grand event in Los Angeles, where 100,000 dance lovers from all over the country will participate, and more than 200 countries around the world will be broadcast live on TV.

It's a great time for you to make a name for yourself.

One is not good, and it is not difficult to completely recover from the godhead.

When the time comes, what else will be difficult for you?

Don't say a small $200 million, it's not like play?"

"Dingdong, the system mission is to participate in the grand event held by the dancing god, and the kicking hall is successful.

The mission fails, and the host and the system die together.

The mission was successful, and the follower godhead was completely unsealed. ”

Li Dabao was completely shocked?

Is he really not ready?

How did it end?

He thought he would have to fight for many more years.

"Ding Dong, the world is impermanent, and no one can predict what will happen in the next second. ”

Li Dabao sighed, everything has not been going well recently, and it is time to go out for a walk.

He thinks that people sometimes just don't know how to be satisfied.

He doesn't lack anything now, he doesn't lack food or clothing, he doesn't have to go to work every day, even if he doesn't do anything, he can spend the rest of his days comfortably.

These things are definitely the goals that many people have to pursue for a lifetime.

At this time, he finally realized that the ancients said that those who are content are always happy.

"Titanic" stopped filming again.

Li Dabao said to Shangguan Qing'er: "Wait for me." ”

He disappeared from everyone's sight again.

His disappearance was complained of by many people.

"I didn't expect you to be a coward, what is your failure? Do you know how good you are? Even if you don't make movies, you can do something else.

Whether it's a poet, a mathematician, a chemist, a writer, or a dancer, if you do it, you can do it well.

What kind of literary film do you make?

I haven't heard of a literary film grossing more than a billion dollars.

That's a minefield.

Even if you are stuck there, there is nothing, it does not mean that you are not capable. ”

He is such a person, he has to run away from something that cannot be solved, but escape is not the solution to the problem. I hope Li Dabao will not run away again. ”

"I think there is a reason why Bao Ye did this. This time he didn't take Shangguan Qing'er away, I believe him, and it won't be long before he comes back. ”

"Don't scold him anymore, he's not even twenty years old, although he's a genius, he's still a small child, we have to know that. ”

"Yes, he's not even twenty years old, and that's the time to rebel. ”

"You've heard that Pete, the world god of dance, is going to have a big event in Los Angeles, and he's going to show everyone and talk to people about dance, and he's going to invite a lot of dance lovers to perform on stage.

Of course, you can also challenge him for the title of World Dance God. ”

"You can pull it down, how many realms have been held? hasn't his title of the god of dance been retained until now? I really don't know who else can shake his position. ”

"If only Bao Ye was here, I believe that even if he can't win the title of the god of dance, it won't make the status of Chinese dancers in the world so unbearable. ”
