797 Unscrupulous press conference

Liu Anran was very satisfied with the reaction of the reporters below, and received the expected results. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Before I tell you about this film, there are some things you need to know." Liu Anran cleared his throat and said.

"The first one, the script for this film, was written by Mr. Cameron in 1996. The second, which will be a pure 3D movie. Third, this movie shows you a different world. ”

"When filming will start and when it will be released, these are all to be determined. Because Cameron needs perfection, to have perfect technical support, but also to show everyone the most perfect picture. And in this play, our investment is 300 million dollars. ”

The production cost of 300 million US dollars really scared the reporters on the scene. Even in today's era, a film with a production cost of $100 million is already an investment above the mainstream film. Like the 150 million of "War of the Worlds", it belongs to the ranks of blockbusters.

And 200 million US dollars or a little higher, it belongs to the ranks of super blockbusters. The money is easy to invest, but the box office is not good to make money back. How many films have invested more than $200 million in the past two years? That is, there are more films under Dream Media. But even if Dream Media is rich, it really invests 300 million US dollars, and it is super bold.

Hearing the number reported by Liu Anran, even Spielberg was a little curious. After all, they are all insiders, and they know that there are still many links that need to cost money in the middle of a movie from investment to publicity to on-screen screening, and the cost of publicity and distribution has continued to increase in the past two years.

And for a film with an investment of 300 million US dollars, if you use tens of millions of US dollars in publicity expenses, you will be sorry for this movie. It can be said that the total cost of this movie will definitely exceed 400 million US dollars.

"Okay, now it's time for the highlight of the press conference." Liu Anran said with great interest.

"Everyone has also gathered news from various sources, and I will remake a gangster-themed film brought from China next year. Leonardo and Matt? Damon, they're my two main actors. ”

"But recently, the company has been short of funds, and I have made investments in these two films, so I only left my film with a production cost of 100 million US dollars, which is pitiful."

"Okay, I'll leave the rest of the time for you to ask questions. If we can finish earlier, we can go to the cafeteria to eat earlier. ”

At George's motion, a reporter stood up and asked, "Mr. Cameron, I wonder why you worked with MGM?" And not twentieth century Fox. ”

"Actually, it's more appropriate to work with Andy than with MGM." Cameron said after thinking for a moment.

"In the early stages of the application of any new technology, there is an unavoidable problem, and that is the increase in cost. For this film, I carefully created every shot, using the dual-camera technique that I developed. Correspondingly, the cost of shooting will increase a lot even if the shooting is smooth. And when the number of NGs increases during the shooting process, the shooting cost will be higher. ”

"I'm happy to work with Andy. Originally, my estimated cost of this film was 200 million or slightly higher, but Andy said that if I was used to it, the money would definitely not be enough to spend, so it was directly set at 300 million US dollars. He also said that if it was not enough, it could be added. ”

"Every director, in the work he shoots, wants to show the most perfect shot to the audience. However, there will be a lot of accidents during the filming process, and there are many factors that are not controllable. But he can support me to try new technologies with unlimited funds and unlimited time, and I have no reason to refuse him. ”

It was the first time Cameron had explained the whole thing so patiently, and in his opinion, Liu Anran's support for him was really great.

"Mr. Spielberg, during the filming of 'Get Away with Impunity,' there was word that you had some unpleasantness with Andy. So how did you win Tom down this time? What about Cruise's involvement in filming? At George's motion, another reporter stood up and asked.

"Wait a minute." Before Spielberg could answer, Liu Anran grabbed the microphone, looked at the reporter and said, "I remember you, when you eat at noon, you must ask the canteen to give you less dishes." ”

At first, Liu Anran really startled the reporter when he said it, thinking that Liu Anran was going to be mad, but after hearing his words, he realized that he was joking.

He had just entered the industry, and he didn't expect George to choose him to ask questions, so he was a little routine when he asked questions, and now he is a little embarrassed.

"There is one thing, I want to say, your news is not bad, the two of us did have a conflict during the shooting." Spielberg said very seriously.

The reporters at the bottom are interested, this is the rhythm of really breaking the news.

"Leonardo and Tom were the ones we were going to use? Hanks, but Andy eventually convinced me to boldly use the new actor. Spielberg continued.

"If you think about it from the perspective of the two of us, the film was a success, even if it didn't do very well at the box office. But it's a bold attempt, Matt? Bomo and Tim? Dikai's acting skills have also been recognized by everyone. ”

"And in this play, in fact, I only have to choose Dakota? Fanning's right, Tom? Cruise was booked directly by Andy. ”

After finishing speaking, Spielberg also put on a very helpless look.

The reporters below laughed heartily, Spielberg just wanted to use such words and actions to tell everyone that the relationship between him and Andy was real.

At George's signal, another reporter stood up, and the object of the question this time was Liu Anran, after all, for the three films, the first to ask questions had to be the three directors, "Andy, we noticed that you had a small discussion on the forum. ”

"It's mainly about a social software that is circulating among college students, and we know that you have invested $20 million in this software. Can you tell us why you are so optimistic about this software? Or is your next investment area in the tech sector? ”

"You're a little off-topic, this is the press conference of the film, you should ask me how much I have expectations for this film, and what form will it be filmed." Liu Anran said a little depressed.

Liu Anran is so serious, but everyone doesn't buy it, whether it is the reporters or the people sitting on the rostrum with him, they are all happy.

This press conference is indeed a bit improper.
