"Xichu" will invest in filming a "400 million US dollars" A-grade film, this news spread throughout Hollywood overnight like wings, and the next day the door of "Xichu" was full of reporters who came to interview, and everyone couldn't wait to know if it was true. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The KTLA TV station in Los Angeles even dispatched a live broadcast car, and stopped at Kalf Road, where "Xichu" is located, early in the morning, hoping to get first-hand news about the matter, and employees came to the company one after another, and almost everyone who went in would be stopped to ask about it, but the answers were very vague.

After waiting until half past nine, after some negotiations between the Los Angeles KTLA TV station and "Xichu", they agreed to be interviewed by Luke Tang, the head of the film production department.

The blonde hostess in professional attire was led by the front desk to enter this small film company, found Luke Tang's office, and after some greetings, the host couldn't wait to cut to the topic and asked: "Mr. Tang, does your company really plan to invest in a '$400 million' movie?"

Luke Don, who was sitting in his office, smiled and replied, "There is indeed a plan, and our boss has already set off early this morning to start looking for a suitable location to build a set. Then Luke Don added to himself, "Maybe it's ...... to build a city."

The host keenly noticed that the person in charge of the production department may not be too optimistic about this movie, so he asked: "Is it really going to invest 400 million US dollars? If it is really 400 million, this will be the largest investment in Hollywood history, and this budget even exceeds the 380 million "Batman v Superman" jointly invested by Sony and DC Comics, which will be released in the Christmas schedule in 15 years.

Luke Don shrugged his shoulders and said: "It must be 400 million US dollars, this is still the previous estimate, according to the plan, maybe 400 million is not enough! Our company is very well funded, even if only the box office income of "Horror Movie" and "Death is Coming" is basically enough to support the investment.....""

Then Luke Downton said, "As for success, nothing in the world can guarantee 100% success, and our company has been questioned since its inception, but it seems that it has been working miracles...... Yesterday, our boss, Mr. Cheng, said a very wonderful thing, he told us: the so-called growth is not only to have dreams, but also to have the courage to gamble everything for dreams. Life is a gamble. Gambling on your career, gambling on your future, betting that your dreams can eventually survive reality, betting that your reality can overwhelm the restlessness of your dreams, betting that your lover can finally fall in love with you, and of course, you can also bet that time can make you forget your former lover. The key is that you understand why you can be willing to gamble and lose. ”

When the blonde hostess heard this, her expression froze for a moment, and then she asked, "WOW! What a provocative statement! So is the director or Director Cheng personally in battle? What kind of story is this dream worth $400 million? As a director who is good at small-budget films, does Director Cheng have the confidence to control such a big production?"

Luke said with a smile: "Of course, the director is still our boss himself, he said that this story has been in his mind for a long time, as for the content of the story I must keep secret at present, and we are very confident in Director Cheng's directing ability." ”

.......

On January 27, 2014, the MTV Movie Awards announced the list of nominees for the winners, "Horror Movie" was shortlisted for the Best Kiss Scene Award and the heroine Nancy was shortlisted for the Most Breakthrough Actress Award, and the official awards ceremony will not wait until the end of March, but this "Golden Popcorn Award" voted by netizens did not pay much attention, but the name of director Cheng Xiaoyu appeared in almost all newspapers and media.

Not only the whole of Hollywood was shocked, but even the whole of the United States was shocked by this incredible film investment, a Chinese film company, about to shoot the most expensive film in the history of the world in the United States, newspapers and media across the United States are questioning.

"Hollywood Observer" - if 400 million is not Huaxia coins, but US dollars, then we can only think that one or two accidental successes have plunged this young Chinese-American director into a state of madness. If this is true, I think this film company called "Xichu" will definitely be short-lived, and it should only be a matter of time before it goes out of business. ”

"Los Angeles Times" -- The future star of the year, Hollywood director Kevin Costa, also after the success of three or four films, pulled Universal to shoot "Future World" with a $200 million investment, and the North American box office was 80 million, and Kevin Costa even lost his pants, I think this young director should talk to Kevin Costa about how to sell pants for a high price.....

The New York Times -- This is really sensational news, almost half of the top 10 films in Hollywood history are losing money, I really don't know where this Chinese-American director, who only made two blockbuster low-budget horror films, got the courage, maybe it is really easier for him to make money, it's time for him to lose all his money, so as to understand what a cruel place Hollywood is......."

Even the Wall Street Journal, a financial newspaper, devoted a lot of space to the incident: "Undoubtedly, the young Chinese-American director, who is known as the future star of horror films, felt that he had to give it the starting point after acquiring the 'digital realm'....... Didn't you say I couldn't pull in business? It doesn't matter, I can't pull in business, I can create my own business..... Peter Kopella is happy, Kenichiro Takahashi is happy, Sony is happy, everyone doesn't understand, he can make "Horror Movie 2" or "Death 2" is a safe and profitable movie, but he is risking his desperate gamble to make an A-grade movie..... None of us know if he is a bold careerist or a dreamer with a lot of self-confidence! In any case, he is a desperate madman who will surely leave his ......mark on the history of Hollywood."

There is also a lot of discussion on the Internet, although no one knows what the specific content of this "$400 million dream" is, but no one is optimistic about this movie with the largest investment in history, and most of them are cynical.

"400 million US dollars? I think this is just a gimmick, 400 million Chinese coins, I can still believe that 400 million US dollars of big investment films, even the big six Hollywood companies will find other film companies or investment companies to share the risk, why is a small company? I also think this Chinese director is crazy......

"Although I like "Horror Movie" and "Death is Coming", I think Director Cheng made a very unwise decision, he should stick to the ...... of making small-budget films"

"If it is really an investment of 400 million US dollars, I can only say that this director is really naïve, today's Hollywood A-grade films are all big IP films, and this Chinese film company has no IP worth investing 400 million in its hands, I really don't know how much money this Chinese director has to make such a decision....."

"This reminds me of Kevin Costa, thinking that Kevin was much sharper than Cheng Xiaoyu, and his performance was brilliant, and in 1990, he was the director and producer of "Dances with Wolves", which won seven Hollywood awards in one fell swoop! Universal spent $230 million on "Future World", and I think that "Universal" has not dried up its tears to this day, and "Universal" has to ask Staven Bell to make three commercial films in a row to recover the loss...... And Kevin Costa has not received any film contracts for nearly ten years, and has to shoot astringent films to pay off his debts..... I don't know if director Cheng Xiaoyu will follow in the footsteps of Kevin Costa, I am personally not very optimistic about this dream ...... worth 400 million US dollars"

Peter Koppura jumped out again and said: "This Chinese director who doesn't know the height of the sky, thinks that he is lucky to get two lucky successes, and fate will always favor him, I am sure that he will use the largest film investment in Hollywood history of 400 million US dollars to cast the biggest joke in the history of Hollywood films...... "Horror Movie" is a movie that makes people want to vomit, "Death is Coming" It's just a movie that relies on ticket swiping and Justin Bieber's brain-dead fans, and this Asian is just a speculator when it comes to movies, especially horror movies...... None of his two so-called 'horror movies' made people feel scary in the slightest, and he just showed off some cleverness to cater to the audience..... Everyone who has watched "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 4" will understand what a textbook-level horror movie is......"

Peter Kopla's remarks are naturally to rub off on Cheng Xiaoyu's popularity, and by the way, he advertises his movie, hoping that everyone will watch his own movie, as long as he can lower the box office of "The Grim Reaper", he will try his best to do whatever he wants..... Although the effective fruit is not seen.

In fact, at this time, Peter Kopla's requirements are not high, as long as the box office of "Death is Coming" is not as high as that of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 4", he feels satisfied......

Cheng Xiaoyu naturally saw what Peter Copla said, this time he didn't plan to endure it, after more than a year, he posted "drizzle" again, he reposted Peter Copla's humiliating remarks about himself, and then @Peter.Copla, I want to have a gentleman's battle with him.

"Director Peter Kopla, you said I don't know how to make horror movies, so do you have the courage to have a competition with me? Let's make a horror movie in a week and see who has the best box office..... Whoever loses, who is not allowed to make horror movies in their lifetime!

(I'm sorry, it's a little late, because there are more things in the past two days, so I'll make up the big chapter of 3,300 words first, and I'm updating 6,000 words during the day, and I'll make up for the update I owed yesterday)
