Chapter 0170 - Selling the Right to Shoot (Fourth Update)

Chapter 0170 Sell the right to shoot

Time passed in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, "Terminator 3" was finally completed after more than 30 years of filming, and entered the post-editing and publicity stage, and the box office of the second part also hit a new high, directly breaking the record held by the first part before, to an astonishing 3.1 billion US dollars.

Such a box office result can be called a rebellion, but it is not the end, because the May 1st schedule of "Terminator 3" is coming soon, which makes the audience who have watched "Terminator 2" even more expectant, and many people even predict that the third part will have a higher box office than the second part.

Lin Huan did not make any response to this, but announced an extremely shocking news, that is, the script and filming rights of the next two parts of "Terminator" were transferred to the outside world.

As soon as this news came out, the world entertainment industry was shaken, and everyone turned their attention to Lin Huan for the first time, because they didn't know why Lin Huan would transfer the filming rights of the last two films under this high box office, isn't this giving the opportunity to make money to others in vain?

You must know that the two "Terminators" have made this series a big IP, as long as it is filmed, it will definitely make money, not to mention that the third part will be released, which will make this series even more popular.

Therefore, when the entertainment industry was shaken, many reporters interviewed Lin Huan for the first time and asked him about copyright transfer.

And Lin Huan's answer to this matter was simply like a joke: "Didn't I say that I was going to make a love blockbuster, of course this "Terminator" couldn't be filmed, so I transferred it." ”

"Mr. Lin, don't you have several companies under your umbrella? Aren't you going to let other directors in your company shoot?" The reporters obviously couldn't agree with Lin Huan's answer.

"Of course not, if my company shoots all the good films, then how will foreign film and television companies survive in the future, I can't squeeze all the film and television companies in Wuhan, so I will give them a chance." Lin Huan shook his head and said very sincerely.

"Uh......" Now the reporters are completely speechless, because as long as they are not fools, they all know that the film and television companies in Haolaiwu will be eager for Lin Huan to disappear, will Lin Huan be so kind to help his opponent?

However, Lin Huan's answer, I remember that there is no choice but to report, but the reporter's report stimulated the film and television companies in Haolaiwu, and while accusing Lin Huan of arrogance on the Internet, he also sent people to contact Lin Huan, preparing to buy the script and filming rights of the last two parts of "The Terminator".

Lin Huan looked at more than a dozen representatives of foreign companies who came to talk about the filming rights, and he was also relieved, to be honest, the reason why he made the decision to sell the script and filming rights was after careful consideration, and the first purpose was to give the upcoming "Terminator 3" to do publicity, because as long as the news is released, Lin Huan believes that the audience will be shaken, and they will treat this third part as the last one, because no matter how the script and shooting rights are transferred, it will not be filmed by the same company and the same actors, so even if there is a continuation, people will reduce their expectations a lot, so that the third part will become a 'closing work' in a sense, giving people enough satisfaction.

The second reason is that Lin Huan himself also thinks that this "Terminator 3" is already the end, because the ending of "Terminator 3" is the nuclear explosion of the world, and if you continue to shoot it, you will feel like you are slapping yourself in the face, and this is why you will be criticized when you reach the fourth and fifth parts in your previous life.

The third reason, of course, is that Lin Huan is reluctant to let these last two parts go to waste, after all, he has already created this IP, how can he sell it for some money, as for the 'pot' that makes this series bad, it is naturally carried by foreign film and television companies, he just needs to make money.

And Lin Huan feels that he is not at a loss in this way, because although the box office seems to be extremely high in the first few films, there are not many expenses that really fall into his pocket, after all, there are four giants who have invested in it, but if you sell the shooting rights and script, it will be different, this thing belongs to him personally, and how much money he sells is naturally pure profit.

Under such calculations, Lin Huan naturally hopes that the more people who come to buy it, the better, of course, before this, the four giants did not want to win the filming rights, and even many domestic companies have expressed this intention, but Lin Huan refused for various reasons, and claimed that this thing will only be sold to foreign film and television companies.

Such an answer made the Big Four and domestic film and television companies realize something, but they didn't feel embarrassed anymore, and some people even released news that the fourth and fifth parts were actually super bad.

Foreign film and television companies have naturally heard of such news, but in their opinion, this is nothing at all, because as long as they win the script and shooting rights, how to shoot at that time is their own business, as long as they have this big IP, what they shoot can definitely be better than Lin Huan, so it has contributed to such a multi-party purchase situation.

When Lin Huan faced representatives of more than a dozen film and television companies, the final price offered was 300 million m for the two scripts plus the shooting rights, although more than a dozen companies said that it was too expensive, but Lin Huan did not let it at all, and finally it was bought by a company called 'Huana' in the United States.

And as soon as Huana Company won the script and filming rights, it announced to the public that it would start filming as soon as possible, and then strive to release the fourth part after the morning song on "Terminator 3" to meet the audience's expectations.

This news undoubtedly made the audience boil again, because although Huana Film and Television is not as famous as Lin Huan's company now, its strength is stronger than Lin Huan's company, and it belongs to a veteran film and television company that has been in business for several years.

It's just that Lin Huan didn't say anything about this, but after finishing the editing of the third part, he quickly released "Terminator 3" worldwide in 'May 1st gear'.

The explosive shots, fierce battle scenes, cold male and female robots, and all kinds of physical effects made "Terminator 3" detonate the audience's attention as soon as it was released, especially the sample opening of Zhang Min Quanguo's appearance, which made countless otaku ready to hand paper.

So when the box office on the first day came out, not only was it not worse than the second part, but with a small advantage of 460 million, it directly broke the first-day box office record of 450 million in the second part, and then the overall box office went all the way up, becoming the strongest dark horse in the May 1st file.

In addition, Zhang Min's cold and glamorous image has also been more and more praised by the world audience, and his fame is getting bigger and bigger, and Yanran has the momentum to become a 'otaku god and goddess'.

It's just that at this meeting, Lin Huan did not comment on the third part, but announced to the public that his first love blockbuster "Titanic" will be filmed urgently, and it is likely that he will meet you in the summer.
