795 Revisiting the Past

(Thanks to my friend yangpan 8 monthly pass for encouragement)

took Cameron and Leonardo around the company, and then had a sumptuous dinner in the cafeteria, and then arranged for someone to send the two back to the hotel. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"$300 million for Project 880, $100 million for "The Departed", $150 million for "War of the Worlds", you can spend money." George said, snapping his fingers.

"It's not a one-time expense, and I don't expect the 880 Project to start filming in at least two years." Liu Anran shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Cameron and I are very much on the same page, and we both like to get the preparation done to perfection before we start shooting."

"But you're really not worried that he's going to spend more on the production costs this time?" George asked with a smile.

"Super is super super, anyway, the films he directed are very good at the box office. In fact, when talking today, he said that if the production cost exceeded 300 million, he didn't even want dividends. But I didn't agree, since we have invested, we still have to ask for a better quality film. ”

"3D technology is indeed a popular shooting method nowadays. But at present, there are also many shortcomings, and there are many films that will bring people uncomfortable feelings when watching. Edward spoke.

"We've talked to Cameron about that and his technology is largely avoidable. And pay more attention when shooting, the position of the camera, the framing position of the lens, can be improved. Liu Anran nodded.

In fact, he finished writing the script in 1996. has been limited by technology, so he will put it in the box. Now that this technology is approaching maturity, he will take it out again. ”

"Brothers, wait for this film to make money. I expected it to be like "Titanic" back then, which surprised people all over the world. ”

"I hope that in this way, everyone can also share more bonuses. By the way, we also made tentative contact with AMC, but there is some hope. Edward said, lighting a cigar.

Liu Anran frowned, "Didn't we discuss it?" If you really make a move against AMC, I'm afraid you will encounter a lot of obstacles. ”

"It's just a commercial thing." Edward smiled and nodded, "Carmichael's side is backing down a bit now, and we have to throw this smoke bomb as well." However, depending on their meaning, they are also interested in this, but it is estimated that they will choose the way of cash + stock. Edward explained.

"What are the chances of eating both?" Liu Anran asked.

"Actually, I don't think the problem is the problem of eating two." Edward said with a frown.

"If Carmicha can successfully acquire it, there should be no policy obstacles on AMC's side. The main reason is that if we really acquire these two theater chains, it will definitely attract the attention of all parties. In terms of film scheduling rate, we must also be cautious. ”

"Although the business of the cinema chain is okay, it is also very hard to operate. The gross profit margin is very high, but the net profit is very low, and sometimes it loses money. ”

"Hasn't our company been competing with the theater chain for so long, and they have taken the initiative against small distribution companies. However, for the big issuing companies, the initiative is reversed. What other theater chain dares to blatantly reduce the number of screens of our company's films? ”

"However, the approval department is still a major problem, and your public relations must be in place. You can't relax when you are looking for a broker, you can spend money when you need to, and don't be stingy at this time. The cinema chain is too important to us, don't be able to get one by then. Liu Anran said with a smile.

"Judging from the information we have now, there is no big obstacle, but it may also be because it has not really entered the acquisition stage." George nodded.

"Andy, you really should consider my previous advice. If you are a U.S. citizen now, all our problems will be solved. All obstacles will no longer be obstacles. ”

Hearing George's old story mentioned again, Liu Anran also shook his head helplessly, "This is the difficulty, we in Huaxia are not allowed to have dual citizenship." I don't just have an industry in the United States, I also have an industry in China. And you have also been to Huaxia with me, so you naturally know how big the market in Huaxia is. ”

"Besides, I really don't think there's any benefit to being a U.S. citizen. And the taxes on the rich are also increasing, and I don't want to be trapped here again after becoming an American citizen. ”

In the United States, the tax rate standards for people with different incomes are also different, and the tax rate of the entertainment industry can be regarded as a high standard. Even if there is a professional team to help Liu Anran take care of his property, he pays a lot of taxes every year.

If you don't pay it, you can't pay it, but the U.S. Internal Revenue Department has someone to keep an eye on it, even if you are just a little bit, as long as you are found, you will be picked up and tossed.

"Well, then we're going to have to work harder. Hey, these people eat people and don't spit out bones. Regardless of whether it is successful or not, they charge a fee for consulting. George said with a sigh.

"Don't worry, it's all small money, as long as they can help us solve the problem, we can raise them for nothing." Liu Anran waved his hand and said.

"You also try to get your own money out of it and put it into my investment company. Just like last time, as long as we can make a big profit, you will be real billionaires. ”

The current investment company is just making some small money, and the aura of the last time has gradually disappeared, and he has become an ordinary member of many investment companies, and everyone is more inclined to Liu Anran is shit luck.

"Andy, do you think the subprime mortgage crisis will really break out?" George asked in a deep voice.

Liu Anran nodded, "It's just a matter of time." As long as there is a downturn in the economy in a given year, this problem will be highlighted. Under the combined effect, there is a new economic crisis. ”

"Bruce: They've been keeping an eye on all kinds of data in the subprime loan market right now, and judging by the algorithm they've come up with, it's actually starting to go downhill right now. It's just that these banks are very cleverly covered up, and if you don't pay attention, you will only think that the real estate market is still thriving. ”

"I really don't know how many murders will be killed." George said with a sigh.

Liu Anran shrugged his shoulders, "This is fate, in fact, even if we issue an early warning now, do you think it can have an effect?" We'll think we're crazy. ”
