138 Get Spielberg
(Thank you friends, I'm hahahaha, yuelan, heart first reward encouragement)
"Andy, can you tell us how much you spent on the remake rights to steal the day?" After eating for a while, Smith asked curiously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The outside world is also very curious, and they don't know the cost of Liu Anran's purchase of "Stealing the Day", which can be sponsored so much by BMW.
"Smith, don't think that I drink too much and take my words, the copyright purchased has a confidentiality clause." Liu Anran said with a smile.
"It's your company, I'm in a hurry to use the reproduction rights of "Ghost Shadow" to exchange with you, and you won't change it. Do you really think that "Fast and Furious" can have a high box office return like "Ghost Story"? ”
"It's hard. Horror films have the lowest investment cost and are often the easiest to succeed. Smith said, shaking his head.
"By the way, I didn't pay much attention to it, when will your "Fast and Furious" be released?" Liu Anran asked after taking a bite of steak.
"June 22nd of this year, no, what are you thinking?" Smith replied and asked cautiously.
"June 22nd? It's a bit of a rush. I don't know if I'll be able to finish post-production for my second film by then, and I really want to play against you. Liu Anran pretended to say.
"Andy, you're not going to be so stingy, are you?" Smith said with a smile.
It's just that now he can't determine whether Liu Anran is serious or not. His first "Ghost Record" was filmed in a little time, and it is estimated that the filming time this time will not be long. And now that his company has grown, it is not a problem to grab the release around June 18.
He was really afraid that Liu Anran would be stingy, so he had to touch Universal on this film, but he really couldn't touch it. The cost of people's investment is small, and there is the accumulation of so many viewers in the first part.
"Andy, don't scare Smith, he's very timid. I don't think you're going to let go of Halloween. Spielberg on the side said with a smile.
He admires Liu Anran a little, how much time is it? He was still promoting his films everywhere when they first met, and now? I'm afraid that some films with large investments will have to avoid his release period.
As Smith feared, no one could afford to compete with these low-budget horror films. The investment in "Fast and Furious" is about 40 million, and Spielberg estimates that Liu Anran will invest 2.5 million if he dies in "Ghost Record", which is too much.
"Well, Smith gives me a pretty good feeling. We've always had a good time, so I'll rule the Halloween schedule. Liu Anran thought for a while, and said after glancing at Smith.
"Andy, it scared the hell out of me just now." Smith said with a smile.
"What is there to worry about, you are all big companies, but I am a small business." Liu Anran said indifferently.
"Andy, is your company really planning to invest in the horror market?" Spielberg asked curiously.
"That's pretty much, that's why I'm going to find a director and train me to be the successor of horror movies. In the future, we will launch different series, at least one per year. Liu Anran said with a smile.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid some studios won't have much to do." Smith said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"What can I do, if I want to avoid you big companies, I can only invest more in horror movies. Whether it's a commercial film or an art film, I think with our company's current qualifications, I'm afraid that the number of screens that we can win when it is released is very limited. Liu Anran said helplessly.
"Unless I ask you to help with the distribution, I don't want to give up this part of the profits. I'm not Spielberg, his name is the signboard, as long as it is his movie, all the theaters are rushing to release. ”
"So you're going to ask him to help you shoot "Impunity"?" Smith asked with a smile.
Of course, he can not only invite big-name movie stars, but also make the future film schedule less difficult. Most importantly, Spielberg also likes this genre very much. Liu Anran said with a laugh.
"I'm really going to be calculated to death by you, as if the 5% box office share I want is going to be less." Spielberg said with a wry smile.
"It's already quite a lot, okay, how about I ask Leonardo and Hanks to play the two protagonists respectively?" Liu Anran said with a smile.
"With the two of them? Do you already have a prototype of your script? Spielberg asked, after a moment's thought.
"Almost, I'm going to have Leonardo play the archetype of Abanel and Hanks to play the role of an FBI agent." Liu Anran nodded and said.
"Why Hanks?" Spielberg then asked.
"Actually, I value his honesty in "Forrest Gump", if he plays a simple and somewhat smart FBI agent, it should be very good." Liu Anran explained.
"Well, although I have worked with Hanks a lot, I think the choice of actors should be based on the script. Abanel's archetype chose Leonardo, which was a good one. Spielberg thought for a moment and said.
"Give me three days and I'll send the script to you. At that time, you will be solely responsible for the selection of actors, and I will not interfere in the filming process. But I can only start filming next year, and I don't have enough money this year. Liu Anran nodded and said with a smile.
"Andy, you can write that script in three days?" Spielberg asked differently.
"Three days is a bit much, but tomorrow is fine. It's just that I've been doing a lot lately, and I don't know if there will be any emergencies. I've been thinking about this script for a long time, so it's not difficult to write it. Liu Anran shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Andy, as far as I know, except for the "Sniper Phone Booth" that you have already filmed, which is not a script written by you, are the rest of the movies and the TV series you have already filmed all scripts written by you?" Spielberg looked at Liu Anran and asked.
"Yes, you have to give the screenwriter money to find a screenwriter, just use your own brain to think about it." Liu Anran said indifferently.
This is really no trouble for me, let alone these scripts, it doesn't matter if there are more. As long as you have it in your head, it's basically converting images into words. Especially if you don't need any style to write a script, it's not just that you can write it if you want to.
After writing so many scripts, it seems that my English writing ability has also strengthened a lot.
He was telling the truth, but Spielberg and Smith's eyes widened. can be regarded as a producer, so they naturally know how important a good screenwriter is in Hollywood. (To be continued.) )
