Chapter 0600 Perform their duties, talk and laugh

Continuing from above,

The reason why Li Wenxing knows that John Williams has been matched with "Stealing the Dragon and Turning the Phoenix", understands his background and resume, and can compliment the other party in such a timely manner.

It's not from the information I saw in the encyclopedia in my previous life, his memory is far less exaggerated, and he can even remember a Hollywood soundtrack.

It's just that when he was looking for a soundtrack for "Tomb Raider", Carla mentioned the other party and gave him a science about this soundtrack.

Then, remembering that this was Spielberg's future royal composer, he agreed to use it.

As for what you like about this person's music, it's just a casual talk, of course I like it, but I don't like it much, it's just a routine compliment to show that I value it.

In this way, even if Li Wenxing and Lucas brought over, the three Hollywood film and television industry peers who are currently at their peak know each other.

Coppola's proposal is of course uncountable, and at this occasion, where is the time to talk about the script?

Li Wenxing came to the United States on purpose, but he planned to show his face a little today, if he was dragged by a few people in front of him to discuss the movie,

Not to mention that with his English level, he can't discuss topics related to film majors at all, and maybe he can't describe a simple use of lenses.

Not to mention that the script he mentioned was completely a pretext, a non-existent thing, and it hadn't been written at all.

The script he is talking about actually refers to the "Saving Private Ryan" that Spielberg will shoot in the future, or "First Blood" that Stallone will play in the future.

However, he has not yet begun to write the scripts of these two movies, whether it is the story structure or the plot, they are still just outlines, and there are no specific details at all.

In such a situation, how can we start a discussion? As soon as we talk about it, we will reveal the stuffing, and there is not even a specific plot, where is the script? Isn't it bluffing? Is it relying on on-the-spot improvisation? That is even more, and he can't send it back.

Therefore, after getting to know Williams, Li Wenxing just laughed silently, directly skipped Coppola's proposal, and began to ask about Lucas's "Star Wars".

In this way, Coppola also knew that there was no play, so he could only stop and listen to the chatter of several people.

Li Wenxing's side, through some conversation, he learned that "Star Wars" has completed all the production, the finished film has been submitted for review, and when the approval is over, it can be used for printing and arrange publicity and release.

This is definitely good news, the release of "Star Wars" means that Superstar Pictures has at least $150-200 million in box office share,

Not to mention the peripheral copyright income, such as videotapes, comics, toys, and original soundtracks, these are the real big heads.

Just because Fox is not particularly optimistic about "Star Wars", it does not strive for the sharing of peripheral copyright revenues in the negotiations, and Superstar Pictures can get 70% of the peripheral revenues.

Li Wenxing can foresee that the top management of Fox will cry and faint in the toilet in the future, they could have taken the opportunity to rise, but the result was to give up this opportunity.

Fox is now in a huge crisis, and it is only $26 million a year, which is not enough to repay the $470 million in loan interest.

Well, these are the intelligence collected by Cai Shiyi's Xinghai investment team in the past year, which is to prepare for the future acquisition of Fox in advance.

Except for this, it is no coincidence,

Spielberg's side, "Contact of the Third Kind" has also completed 70% of the filming progress,

It's not enough, but now this guy has a new idea, and he wants to make a few more big scenes, and while talking, he also tried several times whether he was willing to invest more.

In this regard, Li Wenxing's face remained unchanged, but he frowned secretly, I'm afraid that this guy really treats him as a Kaizi?

However, after a little thought, it was agreed that an additional $5 million would be added, and that it would need to be shared with Colombia, and that the film would have to be released in the summer vacation next year.

As a result, Li Wenxing is so refreshing, he really asks for money and responds to requests, Spielberg is very happy, he is simply smiling, no film director does not like to be generous investors.

"Star Wars" and "Third Kind of Contact", several topics chatted, all of them were good news, Li Wenxing, Lucas, Spielberg, all three of them were very satisfied, and the atmosphere of this chat suddenly became up.

Of course, he will not snub Coppola and Williams, just care about the three of them chatting on the sidelines,

Inevitably, soon talking about Coppola's "Apocalypse Now", Li Wenxing took the opportunity to express his interest, and if he lacked funds, he could say hello,

As for Williams, Li Wenxing directly invited him to score his next movie,

Well, it's the movie that is going to fight the hype of "Star Wars", "This Man is from Earth".

The reason why Li Wenxing mentioned this matter here is also to mention it to Lucas, so that Lucas will not be surprised by him, after all, before the box office results are released, he will definitely be disliked if he dares to bundle up hype.

Lucas is very open-minded, saying that as long as it helps the promotion of "Star Wars", it doesn't matter,

It's normal, Li Wenxing quickly figured it out, he is an investor in "Star Wars", if he really wants to mess up, he will also lose money, and it is estimated that Lucas will not mess around.

However, what Li Wenxing didn't expect was that his invitation was to bring out the famous Hollywood classic gambling contract between Lucas and Spielberg.

It was the two who bet that Spielberg would bet that the box office of "Star Wars" would definitely surpass "Contact of the Third Kind", but Lucas did not believe it, and the result was obvious.

This bet can be said to be very dramatic, although it is only an interaction between good friends, but it also shows that Spielberg has more confidence in "Star Wars" than Lucas,

You must know that Spielberg is not a time-traveler, but he also believes that "Star Wars" will be a big hit in the future, and it can be seen from here that the other party's vision is really powerful.

Perhaps the other party took the initiative to invite him to invest in "The Third Kind of Contact", and there was also a reason for this, based on the common aesthetic concept and common judgment and determination, which produced a psychology similar to that of being a confidant in the air.

It's just that with this episode, it's not easy for him to remind Lucas in person, after all, it's not good to directly dismantle the stage of this new confidant, it's too inauthentic.

It's just a harmless thing, at most next time to give Lucas a trick and then gamble back.

If so, that's it,

From the premiere party of "Tomb", Carla was responsible for negotiating with major Hollywood studios and distributors, while Li Wenxing talked and laughed with three major Hollywood directors and a gold medal soundtrack.

The text narrative seems to be complicated and long, but in fact, it doesn't take long in total, only a dozen or twenty minutes.

At the same time, in the side hall of the banquet hall, the staff of Superstar Pictures, who had been ready, were silently counting down the countdown, and the ceremony was about to officially begin. You have to find the latest chapters by yourself to read books?
