Chapter 251: Don't Underestimate Hollywood
The company doesn't limit the amount of time guests can spend on the island, but Layla has lost interest and stays on the island for her future films. 13579246810
That's right, it's the Golden Isle and its golden beaches that she's eye!
They all thought that she was sitting under the parasol to enjoy the waves and the sea breeze, but in fact, she was merging everything in front of her with the imaginary movie images in her mind. Otherwise, how could she lie on the beach for most of the day?
She spent the next few days in her room sorting out her ideas and ideas, and if it weren't for Nabhani and his strange fiancée, she might not have stayed for a while. But with those two, no matter how beautiful the island is, she also feels a little unappetizing.
So on the fourth day after the banquet, she finally decided to return to Hollywood.
Osvid was in favor of her decision. He had to return to New York after the banquet because of the company's business, which made him very worried about Leila, who was left on the island, afraid that the delicate flowers he had managed to raise would be plucked by the filthy beasts again before he was noticing.
As for Janet, who also stayed on the island in search of inspiration, he didn't bother to bother at all. With his previous "experience", he also knew that he couldn't control his daughter at all, so it was better to let her out and see if any unlucky man could take her in.
"You're leaving?"
As Leila and her group packed their bags, Prince Nabhani ran to her room in a huff. The expression of "finally sending the plague god away" made Leila really look unpleasant.
"Are you happy?"
"Of course I'm happy!" The thought of finally not having to run to her every day in a daze, His Royal Highness the Prince smiled like a brilliant chrysanthemum.
"It's good if you're happy. Leila smiled insincerely, then pushed him aside, "You're in my way." ”
Only then did the prince remember the purpose of his visit: "By the way, are you going back to make a new movie?"
"Yes. ”
"That rumored action movie?"
"Hmm. ”
The prince was depressed: "I said you can't answer a few more words, but I came to you as soon as I heard important information." ”
Leila put down the manuscript in her suitcase that she was about to put in her suitcase: "Did your fiancée find the movie that knocked me down?"
"How do you know?" Nabhani's eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost. He'd just overheard the news and came to ventilate, so there's no reason she'd know it sooner, right?"
"You're thinking too much. Leila was speechless about his brain. He first talked about the movie, and then said important information, plus he knew very well that the eldest lady was not pleasing to her, and it was too simple to guess the truth.
"And then?" she asked.
Naibhani's mood as if he was offering a treasure just now was swept away, and he found a sofa and sat on it depressedly: "You really aren't worried at all?"
"What do I need to worry about?" asked Leila.
"Of course, it's Faize's investment! I've heard that the action movie she's going to invest in is a very good director and editor. ”
Leila shook her head amusedly, still saying the same thing as before: "Don't underestimate Hollywood." ”
Why is it that when a movie with a good box office pops up in Hollywood, there are a lot of works that follow the trend? It is because no matter how powerful the film company and filmmaker are, they can't find the audience's interest. That's why I saw a movie making money, so I frantically followed the trend to make the same type of movie.
Before Layla took over the Immortal Bird Company, Reynolds's people did something similar, except that they followed the trend more clumsily, not only following the trend, but also following the trend that was too cheap to be cheaper. B-grade film companies are not called in vain, a movie can be shot for tens of thousands of yuan, set props or something, can be made for one dollar, and one piece will never be used.
Naibhani is not a person in the film industry, so naturally he doesn't know the rules inside. But he, like many people, thinks that as long as the money arrives, and then find the best director and screenwriter, even if he can't create a movie like Titanic, he can always make hundreds of millions, right?
He never thought that if the movie was so profitable, as long as he invested, he would have income, why would so many rich bigwigs put such a big cake and not take a bite?
"Don't believe it, I heard their conversation, it's really a pretty powerful movie!" Nabhani glanced in the direction of the gate twice, then lowered his voice, and whispered at a volume that only the two of them could hear: "John McTilnan knows, right?
"Oh?" Of course Leila knows that he is the one who filmed Predator and Die Hard, and his strength can definitely be filmed into the ranks of first-line directors.
Naibhani continued: "And the screenwriter, who is said to be the father of high-tech thrills, has written a lot of bestsellers. He was also made into a movie by a particularly powerful director, and it seems that he made a lot of money. What's it called?"
He lowered his head and thought, and then slapped his palm suddenly: "That's right! It's called Jurassic Park! It's the director named Spielberg who made a movie!"
"Yo?" Leila raised an eyebrow, again uttering a monosyllable that represented surprise.
This is really an incredible combination, both the director and the screenwriter are very powerful. Not to mention the director, the screenwriter is really good, and he has written a lot of awards. Not only Jurassic Park, but even the story of the show's emergency room was created by him. That's a shortcut for many people to step into top stars, such as George Clooney, didn't he come out of that series?
Her calm and breezy appearance made the prince anxious for her: "Why haven't you figured out the situation yet? I have heard that the budget of that movie is at least more than 100 million." Come to think of it, when Fai releases such a great movie at the same time as yours, do you think the movie you spent so much money on can compete with them?"
Leila smiled slightly, "I know, I'll pay attention." "It's rare that the other party has the heart to report to her in advance, whether it is effective for her or not, she can't be unappreciative at all, right?
"Do you really know?" Nabhani looked at her suspiciously, as if her words were fooling him.
"I really know. "Leila is too lazy to explain the rules of Hollywood to a layman.
No matter how powerful a director is, there are times when he misses, such as John Woo's Wind Whisperer, or Spielberg's Happy Terminal. A successful director only has a few more chances to fail than the average director, and he thinks that people who have made good movies will not fail, and that is what only laymen will say.
