"Lee, I'm the protagonist. Mobile phone access m. Nicole said dissatisfied.

"Yours too. ”

Li Mo took out a few more pieces of manuscript paper from the drawer.

Nicole is a famous beauty, but she is also a famous box office poison, especially when she died and turned down the film contract of "Titonic ". But thinking of her acting skills in the sample film, even if Li Mo signed Nicole in the future, he didn't dare to persuade her to take this film, maybe because of Nicole, she could ruin this movie.

However, if you choose a general among the short people, you can still choose some films, such as "Island Horror", "Golden Compass", "Cold Mountain", "Troubled Times in Australia", and several other films can barely make do with the box office, but Li Mo has not seen it, has not seen it, so don't say anything. And with her appearance linked to the endorsements of various companies, even if the movie doesn't make much, it is equivalent to earning.

Then there's the issue of copyright.

There are many movies that have original copyrights, such as Vanilla Sky, which is a remake of the Spanish movie "Open Your Eyes", and Leng Shan has an original book, and it is quite famous in the United States.

Li Mo remembers a lot of these original copyrights. Even if Li Mo doesn't remember these two films, it's not a big problem, they haven't come out yet.

But some, Li Mo didn't remember, and if he came out again, there would be a possibility of a crash.

But it doesn't matter, last time he asked so many ghostwriters to write indiscriminately, and some humanistic pens are still good.

Li Mo asked the Io studio to select about twenty people from it and signed a contract with them. They have two tasks, one is to continue to write with Li Mo's outlines, and the other is to read books, watch movies, and watch TV on weekdays. If there is a copyright conflict, it is necessary to send someone to negotiate with the holder. In this regard, Li Mo said in the name that I am worried about the BBC story again. can be explained, Li Mo is not copied from the original text, there are so many "ideas", it is inevitable that there will be creative similarities.

Looking at the dozen or so sheets of manuscript paper, Mr. and Mrs. Tom began to look at each other.

On the one hand, the performance is just a little more open, and on the other hand, it is a great career prospect.

They had no choice but to agree, but they couldn't actually agree, so would they dare to violate the contract? Besides, they took it off, and Li Mo just asked to be more open during the performance.

Tom hesitated, and suddenly stared at a musical instrument next to him: "Lee, what kind of instrument is this?

It's not a musical instrument, it's not good for him to agree directly and find a step for himself.

Musically, Tom is not good, Nicole is okay, and later in "Island Cry", the piano in it was played by herself, not by others, and then filmed in a dislocation technique.

"It is a kind of musical instrument of our ethnic minorities in southern China, called gourd silk, and bagpipes are of two different natures, I have not studied for a long time, and I am not very good at playing for the time being, but I can play a section. ”

Li Mo took the gourd silk off the instrument rack and played a classic gourd silk song "Phoenix Tail Bamboo in the Moonlight".

"What a wonderful instrument, why hasn't it ever been seen in the United States?"

"In fact, it's the same everywhere, after all, the United States has not been founded for a long time, Nicole, you Australia too, where to Europe and Africa, and our China, because of the long history, there are many national unpopular musical instruments, even I, I can't recognize them one by one. ”

Although the gourd silk is relatively unpopular in the world, it is not an unpopular musical instrument in China.

There are many really unpopular musical instruments, such as pipes, if you don't understand, it has a very elegant term, 筚節, maybe more than ninety percent of people will also use it as a kind of flute.

Or take the gonghou as a harp, the three strings as the erhu, the yueqin as the pipa, the zither can be used as a guqin without rubbing the strings, and some strange and unpopular instruments, Li Mo can't name them.

After talking about musical instruments for a while, Li Mo asked Uncle Li to send them to the hotel.

The next day, Paul and Michael didn't come, so Tom went back first.

Although he had a marriage, he is still a pink young man who can't wipe his face.

Then Paul and Michael arrived with some of the staff.

Li Mo had already prepared the equipment and borrowed it from Shangying.

Li Mo took them to the old bungalow that Freeman and Banksy had arranged, and the prop masters, makeup artists, lighting artists and other staff began to get busy.

Once the setup was set, Paul began to clear the scene, including the gaffer, who kicked him out.

There are only four people in the room: Paul, Limer, Michael and Nicole, and during the shooting, the gaffer needs to adjust the lighting, and the photographer is needed, but these two jobs are done by Michael and Limer.

Shooting begins.

That is, the scene where the two protagonists roll the sheets in the middle of the movie, because the scene is a sea-view room, if this section is filmed, when you return to the United States, you will continue to shoot some shots. But the most violent scene was solved in this room.

Maybe Tom did his wife's ideological work last night, or maybe because of some promises and persuasion from Li Mo, Nicole finally let go today. But......

Li Mo looked at it for a while and said, "Card, card." ”

Everyone stopped, and Li Mo said, "Nicole, let's analyze the heroine in the same way." First of all, she is a highly intelligent psychologist and also has a good talent, so she has written several best-selling ones. With her talent, IQ and mastery of psychology, she has the confidence and confidence to play all men and police in the palm of her hand. But the movie is not, it can't be expressed in words, so she has to use some shots to portray her mentality. What kind of shot, her movements are lazy, because the things of the world do not interest her. The corners of her mouth are often upturned, and her eyes are often slightly sarcastic, because no one else will let her look at them, or she looks at others with the mentality of looking at ants. ”

Because of her mentality, as well as some of her experiences, she likes to kill, and the goal of killing is not to kill people, but after killing, she can still write a book, but let the law and the police have no way to deal with her, so this process makes her enjoy it very much. ”

"Treat sex above...... Do you scream like an A-movie when you and Tom make love, and what kind of big movements, is that sex, or is it desperate?"

Nicole blushed.

Paul and Michael laughed on the sidelines.

"You don't need to shout like that, and occasionally moan softly, it will make the man feel happy, so you are not letting go of these actions, but learning A movies, and if it is really screened, then your reputation will become very bad. I'll talk about the heroine again, she is very open to sex, because her mentality is that it doesn't matter, she focuses on enjoyment, including Lala and the opposite sex, she can accept it. Because of her indifferent mentality, it's really letting go, not performative yelling, and after really letting go, it's all about devotion, so the male protagonist said, you are the most powerful master of doing and love, and then let the male protagonist be completely addicted. ”

Don't think that exposing your flesh will sell high at the box office.

If it weren't for Sharon Stone's sultry acting, maybe that instinctive box office wouldn't even reach $100 million.

"Li, you're right, no wonder I couldn't find the feeling when I was directing. Paul said.

But Li Mo sighed in his heart, Nicole is really not suitable to make such a film.

Even if she later became an "old fritter", she also made big moves in some movies, but she didn't leave much impression.

I had to grind it slowly and grind out the feeling.

After filming for a while, Li Mo couldn't stand it on the side, and said loudly: "No, then let's do it." ”

Michael was scared and trembled, he really did it behind his back, he couldn't wait to do it, could he really do it in person?

Nicole's forehead also sweated: "Lee, let me find my feelings again." ”

Day 2, Day 3...... Li Mo walked over.

"Lee, I haven't got my clothes on yet. Nicole protested.

There's no way to shoot that, "dedication to art", but my ** is not for you to visit.

"Don't move. Li Mo shouted. Li Mo didn't take advantage of her, of course, if Nicole took the initiative to be willing, during the filming process in the past few days, Li Mo also stirred up some "anger", and Li Mo was unwary of extinguishing the fire. But Nicole didn't have this will, Li Mo wouldn't touch her, and there were two men next to her.

He let Nicole lie down and looked at it for a long time, then finally patted her head and said, "That's right." ”

He has always felt that it is inappropriate, not only Nicole's acting skills, but in fact, after grinding for three or four days, Nicole's acting skills are gradually making do. It can't be the same as Sharon Stone, as long as it can meet the requirements that Li Mo said.

But because the two images were conflicting in his mind, Li Mo still felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't find anything wrong. After looking at it for a while just now, he saw some moist soil in Nicole's yellow grass, and Li Mo thought of one thing.

The difference is the hair.

One is straight and the other is curly. It's not that curly hair is bad, but in this movie, straight hair will make the heroine appear more capable and sharp, wild and charming, which is more in line with the heroine's mentality. Dare to love Li Mo is still influenced by the previous instinct, but so what's the matter, as long as Ni may play ** into the taste of Sharon Stone, with her beauty, she can fascinate the audience, and this movie will be a big hit.

"Change your hairstyle, so don't I have the shots I took before?" asked Nicole in surprise.

"What do you say? ”

Warner sent someone over, too.

But when Warner heard the news, he had no objections.

Some time ago, a professional newspaper in the United States published a very in-depth article.

The new line's "Fatal Bend" has been offline, the new line has begun to project "Fatal Bend 2", and soon it will also set up "Scream 2", Li Mo only asked Io Studio to fund, but did not participate in the preparation of the outline, the new line can be compiled according to the ideas written by Li Mo to the next episode, the big deal is to show Li Mo after the script is written, and after the movie is filmed, let Li Mo edit it. Li Mo will not participate in the rest.

Fatal Corners also had ads inserted, and Coca-Cola spent $200,000 on the first Fatal Corners to insert ads. That is, several actors drank Coke and exposed the Coca-Cola logo of the can, a total of three shots, passing by in disguise.

But it is also very cost-effective, not to mention its super high box office, there will be videotapes in the future, and even genuine pirated VCDs in the future, as well as online resources, even if one in a hundred viewers notices it, Coca-Cola has also made a profit.

Think about how much Coca-Cola costs for every commercial on TV.

got the benefit, and heard that the second fatal curve project was established, Coca-Cola sent someone to negotiate again, and took the initiative to raise the price to $300,000. The new line is hung in the face, 300,000 dollars, haven't you seen its box office?

After several negotiations, Coca-Cola finally increased the implant fee to half a million dollars. Don't look at this as an NC-17 movie, just when the project was initiated, it has obtained nearly two million dollars in advertising placement revenue, and with the start-up, maybe it can make one or two million placement income.

What does it mean for a film produced by a small or medium-sized production to earn three to four million dollars? Before the start of production, nearly 30 percent of the production cost has been recovered.

And there are subsequent derivatives, such as last year's Halloween, the mountain man hood and screaming skull mask alone, a total of more than two million were sold, and the mountain man costume, the black cloak of the screaming murderer, also sold hundreds of thousands of sets.

and some other peripheral products, sales reached more than 20 million US dollars, and for this alone, the new line took another 5 million US dollars in profit sharing.

Don't worry, there's the tape behind.

That is to say, in the future, only peripheral products can keep their production costs, and if the later films are not bad, maybe the publicity and distribution costs will also be preserved.

The rest of the box office dividends are completely net profits.

Don't look at it as a plasma film, it also makes a lot of money.

This article begins with an analysis of this matter.

In Li Mo's previous life, from this year onwards, Hollywood big-budget movies began to gradually increase. There are three reasons, one is that the Gulf War made the world see the strength of the United States, and more people recognized American culture, including movies. The expansion of the influence of the United States has also increased the overseas box office year by year, such as "Pacific Rim", if it is not supported by the Chinese market, it will lose very badly. The risk is shared at the overseas box office, which allows Hollywood companies to dare to shoot big-budget movies, and the more big-budget movies, the higher the overseas box office revenue, forming a virtuous circle. But this year is not very obvious......

The second is the application of new technologies.

The third is the maturity of peripheral product development, such as many animated feature films, if there are no peripherals, they are also loss-making. But with peripherals, the box office seems to be losing, but it is actually earning.

The first two have nothing to do with Li Mo, but the latter one made Li Mo perfect it very early.

However, the sponsors are also not sure about the effect of sponsorship, and the 007 series of movies is definitely needless to say, but if you want to implant advertisements in it, the cost is too great, and the income may not be able to keep up with what is produced.

If you want to sell a large number of peripheral products, they must be sold when the movie is released, so they must be designed and produced before the movie is released. However, in the case of uncertainty about the box office, how many toy manufacturers are willing to design merchandise related to early production, unless the producer pays a deposit, but the producer himself dares to guarantee it?

With the success of Li Mo's movies one after another, it has gradually become a golden sign in Hollywood, and these problems have been solved.

Just like "Fatal Bend 2", it got more than three million implant income in advance, which was used for production, and the film will be more well-made and used for profit, and the cost of film production will become very small. That is, in the future, Li Mo will form a small monopoly effect on Hollywood.

Of course, this article is about facts, and the author will not say anything about Li Mo's threats.

No one has entered the film company, what kind of threat to talk about, if this is a threat, the Hollywood giants even wish there were a few more "threats".

Warner is not a new line, it is a big company, a giant.

Li Mo reminded that what people have is talent, expand the income of product placement, such as the pajamas worn by Nicole are Bess pajamas, Bess gave two million product placement advertising fees, which is still a friendship price, otherwise it is higher. Peripheral products, not only Warner's talents, but also Rong Deke's assistance, and even Li Mo himself expressed some opinions.

But the article drew Warner's attention to another problem, and that was the box office of each of these films planned by Li Mo. Li Mo overturned all the shots taken by Nicole before, and went into battle in person, which had nothing to do with Nicole's appearance, after filming every day, everyone went back to the hotel honestly, Li Mo went home, and nothing happened...... What does that mean, Li Mo has super high confidence in the box office of this movie.

Such a toss will undoubtedly waste a lot of production costs, but as long as there is a high box office, what is this cost?

Besides, except for the part where the heroine's best friend crashed into the car, there was no big scene in this movie.

Warner also acquiesced to the shot that Li Mo had taken before overthrowing Ni.

But it took seven or eight days to shoot these sets of shots.

Of course, it can also be used as an important reference for Nicole's performance in other scenes of this movie in the future.

Michael wiped the beads of sweat on his head and said, "It turns out that it's not easy to shoot color and love movies." ”

"Michael, this is a commercial suspense blockbuster in a pornographic skin, and it can't be simply regarded as a sex movie. ”

Li Mo said, but he has been tossing enough in the past few days.

The group returned to the United States.

Li Mo is preparing to go to Xiangjiang, which has nothing to do with Li Jiaxin, but the annual meeting of various companies. Many high-level executives of TSMC and Asus are from Wanwan, and it is very inconvenient to run to the mainland. The headquarters will not be completed in two or three years, but a temporary headquarters has been built. From this year onwards, most of the headquarters meetings will be held there.

At this time, Lao Chen took one person to Li Mo's house.

Li Mo greeted first: "President, Professor Zhang." ”

This Professor Zhang was originally a lecturer in the school, because he was good at materials science, he participated in the research and development of lithium batteries, and was its main force.

Lithium batteries are almost entirely developed domestically, the right to use belongs to Li Mo, and the right to reputation belongs to various universities.

Even the technology mentioned by Bush Sr. is of course very important above.

As a meritorious officer, Lecturer Zhang was not only rewarded, but also promoted from lecturer to associate professor.

Li Mo invited them into the house and asked, "Principal, Professor Zhang, why are you free to come to my house today?"

Professor Zhang lowered his head and said, "Li Mo, I'm guilty." ”

Li Mo was not inexplicable, but immediately reacted: "Professor Zhang, how much data did you leak, and that company in that country came to you?"

"Lee, I'm the protagonist. Mobile phone access m. Nicole said dissatisfied.

"Yours too. ”

Li Mo took out a few more pieces of manuscript paper from the drawer.

Nicole is a famous beauty, but she is also a famous box office poison, especially when she died and turned down the film contract of "Titonic ". But thinking of her acting skills in the sample film, even if Li Mo signed Nicole in the future, he didn't dare to persuade her to take this film, maybe because of Nicole, she could ruin this movie.

However, if you choose a general among the short people, you can still choose some films, such as "Island Horror", "Golden Compass", "Cold Mountain", "Troubled Times in Australia", and several other films can barely make do with the box office, but Li Mo has not seen it, has not seen it, so don't say anything. And with her appearance linked to the endorsements of various companies, even if the movie doesn't make much, it is equivalent to earning.

Then there's the issue of copyright.

There are many movies that have original copyrights, such as Vanilla Sky, which is a remake of the Spanish movie "Open Your Eyes", and Leng Shan has an original book, and it is quite famous in the United States.

Li Mo remembers a lot of these original copyrights. Even if Li Mo doesn't remember these two films, it's not a big problem, they haven't come out yet.

But some, Li Mo didn't remember, and if he came out again, there would be a possibility of a crash.

But it doesn't matter, last time he asked so many ghostwriters to write indiscriminately, and some humanistic pens are still good.

Li Mo asked the Io studio to select about twenty people from it and signed a contract with them. They have two tasks, one is to continue to write with Li Mo's outlines, and the other is to read books, watch movies, and watch TV on weekdays. If there is a copyright conflict, it is necessary to send someone to negotiate with the holder. In this regard, Li Mo said in the name that I am worried about the BBC story again. can be explained, Li Mo is not copied from the original text, there are so many "ideas", it is inevitable that there will be creative similarities.

Looking at the dozen or so sheets of manuscript paper, Mr. and Mrs. Tom began to look at each other.

On the one hand, the performance is just a little more open, and on the other hand, it is a great career prospect.

They had no choice but to agree, but they couldn't actually agree, so would they dare to violate the contract? Besides, they took it off, and Li Mo just asked to be more open during the performance.

Tom hesitated, and suddenly stared at a musical instrument next to him: "Lee, what kind of instrument is this?

It's not a musical instrument, it's not good for him to agree directly and find a step for himself.

Musically, Tom is not good, Nicole is okay, and later in "Island Cry", the piano in it was played by herself, not by others, and then filmed in a dislocation technique.

"It is a kind of musical instrument of our ethnic minorities in southern China, called gourd silk, and bagpipes are of two different natures, I have not studied for a long time, and I am not very good at playing for the time being, but I can play a section. ”

Li Mo took the gourd silk off the instrument rack and played a classic gourd silk song "Phoenix Tail Bamboo in the Moonlight".

"What a wonderful instrument, why hasn't it ever been seen in the United States?"

"In fact, it's the same everywhere, after all, the United States has not been founded for a long time, Nicole, you Australia too, where to Europe and Africa, and our China, because of the long history, there are many national unpopular musical instruments, even I, I can't recognize them one by one. ”

Although the gourd silk is relatively unpopular in the world, it is not an unpopular musical instrument in China.

There are many really unpopular musical instruments, such as pipes, if you don't understand, it has a very elegant term, 筚節, maybe more than ninety percent of people will also use it as a kind of flute.

Or take the gonghou as a harp, the three strings as the erhu, the yueqin as the pipa, the zither can be used as a guqin without rubbing the strings, and some strange and unpopular instruments, Li Mo can't name them.

After talking about musical instruments for a while, Li Mo asked Uncle Li to send them to the hotel.

The next day, Paul and Michael didn't come, so Tom went back first.

Although he had a marriage, he is still a pink young man who can't wipe his face.

Then Paul and Michael arrived with some of the staff.

Li Mo had already prepared the equipment and borrowed it from Shangying.

Of course, this article is about facts, and the author will not say anything about Li Mo's threats.

No one has entered the film company, what kind of threat to talk about, if this is a threat, the Hollywood giants even wish there were a few more "threats".

Warner is not a new line, it is a big company, a giant.

Li Mo reminded that what people have is talent, expand the income of product placement, such as the pajamas worn by Nicole are Bess pajamas, Bess gave two million product placement advertising fees, which is still a friendship price, otherwise it is higher. Peripheral products, not only Warner's talents, but also Rong Deke's assistance, and even Li Mo himself expressed some opinions.

But the article drew Warner's attention to another problem, and that was the box office of each of these films planned by Li Mo. Li Mo overturned all the shots taken by Nicole before, and went into battle in person, which had nothing to do with Nicole's appearance, after filming every day, everyone went back to the hotel honestly, Li Mo went home, and nothing happened...... What does that mean, Li Mo has super high confidence in the box office of this movie.

Such a toss will undoubtedly waste a lot of production costs, but as long as there is a high box office, what is this cost?

Besides, except for the part where the heroine's best friend crashed into the car, there was no big scene in this movie.

Warner also acquiesced to the shot that Li Mo had taken before overthrowing Ni.

But it took seven or eight days to shoot these sets of shots.

Of course, it can also be used as an important reference for Nicole's performance in other scenes of this movie in the future.

Michael wiped the beads of sweat on his head and said, "It turns out that it's not easy to shoot color and love movies." ”

"Michael, this is a commercial suspense blockbuster in a pornographic skin, and it can't be simply regarded as a sex movie. ”

Li Mo said, but he has been tossing enough in the past few days.

The group returned to the United States.

Li Mo is preparing to go to Xiangjiang, which has nothing to do with Li Jiaxin, but the annual meeting of various companies. Many high-level executives of TSMC and Asus are from Wanwan, and it is very inconvenient to run to the mainland. The headquarters will not be completed in two or three years, but a temporary headquarters has been built. From this year onwards, most of the headquarters meetings will be held there.

At this time, Lao Chen took one person to Li Mo's house.

Li Mo greeted first: "President, Professor Zhang." ”

This Professor Zhang was originally a lecturer in the school, because he was good at materials science, he participated in the research and development of lithium batteries, and was its main force.

Lithium batteries are almost entirely developed domestically, the right to use belongs to Li Mo, and the right to reputation belongs to various universities.

Even the technology mentioned by Bush Sr. is of course very important above.

As a meritorious officer, Lecturer Zhang was not only rewarded, but also promoted from lecturer to associate professor.

Li Mo invited them into the house and asked, "Principal, Professor Zhang, why are you free to come to my house today?"

Professor Zhang lowered his head and said, "Li Mo, I'm guilty." ”

Li Mo was not inexplicable, but immediately reacted: "Professor Zhang, how much data did you leak, and that company in that country came to you?"
