Chapter 139: Disaster Movie?

Bow and thank him, love to pet her, surnamed Xiaoyu, Shiwei gave a big reward~~~!!

-------------

Carnivals, drinking parties, celebrities and dinners coming and going, for a whole month, Zhou Shaoming was very excited to accept the life of the American upper class, but soon, all this made him tired and made him a little helpless.

If it is any other director, it is normal to make a blockbuster movie in a few years, and the rest of the time is either to enjoy life or to find a better film to shoot.

And Zhou Shaoming, now that he has enjoyed enough, he suddenly wants to pick up the microphone more and more, stand in front of the monitor, and roar loudly to direct the crew and actors to make exciting movies.

It is difficult for other directors to find a good movie, and sometimes it can even be said that it is unattainable, but for Zhou Shaoming, as long as he wants to make it, there is no difficulty at all.

"It's so boring, it's so aggrieved, I've had enough!"

Waking up from the hangover again, Zhou Shaoming looked at himself in the mirror with black bags under his eyes, and suddenly shouted.

"I'm going to make a movie, I'm going to keep making it! I want to make the best movie in the world, it's my dream, and I can't stop for a moment! Holding on to the wall, Zhou Shaomingzai carefully stared at his eyes that almost came out of sparks, and the kind of unstoppable ** erupted like a volcano, so hot that he couldn't calm down.

"System, come out, give me a task! I want to make a movie! Calling the system in his mind, Zhou Shaoming suddenly felt a little funny, he used to always refuse the system to shoehorn his tasks, but once the voice of the little Lori in the system did not appear, he felt that the world was boring.

"Host-sama, do you miss me? hoho~~~ It's fun! Little Lori's voice sounded, sweet, full of joy.

"I don't want you, I want movies! I want to make a movie! Zhou Shaoming sat on the sofa angrily, opened it casually and listened to the Coke, and poured it violently.

"Okay, let's start choosing ......"

"No, no, no, I don't want to choose randomly, let me make my own decisions, I want to make the movie I want!" Zhou Shaoming hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth and interrupted Xiao Lori's words.

"That'...... Well, what kind of movie would you like to make, host-sama? ”

"Do you need to ask? Of course, it's a disaster movie, that kind of devastating scene, so that even if I wake up in the middle of the night, I will feel the deep throbbing! Since the last time Zhou Shaoming was suddenly hit by a tornado, he has never forgotten the disaster movie, at this time he sat up straight, first rubbed his face hard and tried to make himself sober, and then couldn't help but say happily.

"Do you have any movies in your heart?"

"Haha, a lot, first of all, I want to make a disaster movie like "The Day After Tomorrow" or "2012" with amazing special effects and popular all over the world!" Zhou Shaoming thought about it, the two movies in the image are the movies that exploded at the box office in later generations, and they are also movies that he is very familiar with and likes.

"The Day After Tomorrow" is a 2004 American science fiction film that depicts the catastrophe brought about by global warming and global cold. The film is the sci-fi blockbuster of the year at 20th Century Fox, with an investment of $125 million. Lori said slowly, then paused and continued: "2012 is a disaster movie about global destruction, which tells the story of the protagonist and the people of the world struggling to survive when the end of the world comes in 2012; The film is known as an upgraded version of "The Day After Tomorrow" with an investment of more than $200 million, and is another masterpiece of disaster film master Roland Emmerich. ”

“**! One 125 million, one 200 million!! Is there any mistake about investing so much? Zhou Shaoming was taken aback, if this is added to the later publicity costs, then it will not be 200 million for "The Day After Tomorrow", and "2012" will even reach 300 million?

After counting on his fingers for a long time, Zhou Shaoming found that although he could shoot these two movies, he basically had to empty all his net worth, even if he was half of Lionsgate, he would have to pay at least $100 million!

Let Lionsgate pay for me to shoot? In the middle of the imitation, Zhou Shaoming thought of another solution, but quickly shook his head and ruled out this idea in his mind.

He doesn't want the studio to interfere with his films, he wants complete control, which is the same as Jessica, who grabs the steering wheel with him, full of control that has no other possibility.

It was my movie, and from start to finish, it was up to me to call the shots, and it wasn't anyone's turn to dictate!

"Not only that, Lord Host, these two movies are disaster films, and the biggest selling point is to be achieved through visual effects, and according to the computer technology and strength in 2000, to achieve the effect of the original version, it may have to increase by about 50%, then it is "The Day After Tomorrow" 187.5 million US dollars, "2012" even if it exceeds 400 million investment, it is very likely that it will only reach 90% of the original level!" Little Lori seemed to have counted for a long time, and then said slowly.

"Oh my God! Spend so much money to achieve the effect of the original? Zhou Shaoming almost wanted to cry.

After human society entered the new millennium, the level of computer hardware and software has advanced by leaps and bounds, and the visual effects of movies have to rely on the upgrading of computer technology, and the hardware of computers has to be updated in less than a year, from 2000 to 2004, the span of four years is not to wave a checkbook, you can get everything.

"Host, do you want to make these two disaster movies?" Lori then asked.

"No, don't shoot it, spend 200 million 400 million to achieve the original effect. I don't want these, I want my movies, they have a box office and sensational effect that far surpasses the original movie, I want super jumping, not copying! If only the same as the original, what do I shoot it for! Zhou Shaoming thought about it and said very seriously.

has made two movies in a row, and the current director Smith Zhou is also arrogant, if you don't do it, you have to do it better!

But disaster movies rely on amazing visual effects, and without this, it can't constitute the key to attracting audiences for disaster movies!

"Then I can't help it...... Why don't you make some other disaster movie, host? Little Lori reminded in a low voice.

"What other disaster movie can be made? If not a natural disaster, then a man-made disaster? Zhou Shaoming fell on the sofa, patted his head, picked up Coke and took a sip, and suddenly thought that although the box office in later generations was not too high, there were countless fans, which can be called a movie that created an era!

Resident Evil!

In a sense, "Resident Evil" is also a disaster, but this disaster is not a punishment from nature, but from the greed and madness of human beings themselves.

Although it's a science fiction film, you can always catch up with the disaster, and it doesn't go against your original wishes!

Zhou Shaoming was so happy that he jumped up from the sofa directly: "Haha, I thought about it, I want to shoot "Resident Evil"! ”

"The host really didn't insist, he said he was going to make a disaster movie, and now it's changed to a science fiction movie!" Xiao Lori's tone was very disdainful, as if Zhou Shaoming's imminent change of film made her very unhappy.

"Haha, the zombie virus is also a disaster, but it is not a natural disaster, it is a man-made disaster. Show me the basics of Resident Evil. Zhou Shaoming ignored the little Lori in the system, and just fantasized about filming "Resident Evil", which became popular all over the world, and was so excited that he danced.
