"Mr. Zhao Chen, please come in! It's a bit messy at home, please don't mind! ”

James? Cameron hurriedly opened the door and welcomed Zhao Chen into the room. As he said, his home was indeed a mess and had not been cleaned for almost a few days. Of course, this is not actually a home, but is it James? Cameron's studio, after all, his wife and family are not here.

"Mr. Zhao Chen, you should have been waiting at the door for a long time, right?" James? Cameron put a cup of coffee in front of Zhao Chen, and then asked.

"It didn't take long, it's the same everywhere anyway!"

"I'm really sorry, I didn't know that Mr. Zhao Chen was coming today, otherwise I would have stayed at home and cleaned up by the way!"

"Actually, I was negligent, and you don't need to be sorry for it at all!"

After Zhao Chen said this, the two became silent, Zhao Chen usually doesn't like to talk, and James? Cameron is completely thinking about Zhao Chen's intentions, and in the end it is James? Cameron, the host, once again took the lead and said:

"Mr. Zhao Chen's name has been circulating in the United States all the time, and a basketball team was acquired a few days ago, I heard that Mr. Zhao Chen is still a cartoonist?"

"Yes, personal favorites!"

"I just don't know what happened to Mr. Zhao Chen coming to me this time?" Americans really don't like beating around the bush, James? Cameron couldn't think of other words to deal with the scene for a while, so he had to get to the point.

"I've seen the movie directed by Mr. Cameron, and I feel that Mr. Cameron has a lot of potential, so I hope to cooperate with Mr. Cameron accordingly!"

After hearing Zhao Chen's words. James? Cameron visibly froze, and his head couldn't turn for a while. He didn't expect Zhao Chen to come to him for this purpose.

"So I don't know if there's anything I can do to help?" That's the point, as long as it's not too bad a job, James? Cameron feels that the job is not too bad, and he can do it, after all, his life is not good now, especially the material conditions.

Zhao Chen didn't answer immediately, but took a sip of coffee before slowly taking out a bundle of paper from his leather bag and saying, "Mr. Cameron." Here's a script I recently wrote, you can check it out! If you can, I hope you can direct this movie! ”

"Script?" James? Cameron didn't know that Zhao Chen could write a script, but the movies written by Zhao Chen before basically couldn't enter the American film market, and even if he did, the box office would be miserable. It's also pure normal that Cameron hasn't heard of it.

James? Cameron held back the doubts in his heart. As a result, the bundle of paper, I saw that it said "Home Alone"!

"Home Alone" is also known as "Baby Smart Multi-Star", originally directed by Chris? Christmas' 199o Christmas movie not only brought infinite joy to movie lovers, but also made it the 29th grossing film in American film history, and the best comedy ever made in the United States. Surrounded by many sci-fi blockbusters. The film grossed $530 million worldwide and is a series of films. It can be said that as long as this film comes out, there will naturally be a lot of profits.

James? Cameron was actually a little contemptuous at first, after all, Zhao Chen is both a cartoonist and a pianist, how can he write a good script when his energy is distracted. Just after a few glances. He felt that he had made a big mistake, and the script called "Home Alone" caught his attention. Soon the whole person indulged in the joy brought to him by the script, and when he saw the highlights, he couldn't help but have all kinds of funny pictures in his mind, and he couldn't help but smile on his face, and occasionally he couldn't help laughing, but some of the scenes in it were too funny.

Waiting for James? After Cameron put down the script, Zhao Chen finally asked, "How is it?" Mr. Cameron! ”

"Very... Very good! I didn't expect Mr. Zhao Chen to have such a good talent in script creation! If this movie comes out, it will definitely be welcomed by people, and the box office may not be low. ”

"I think so too, but if this movie is going to be released, it's better to show it at Christmas!"

"Mr. Zhao Chen, what you said is very right, I can direct this movie, but I don't know who the investor of this movie is?" James? Cameron has a unique vision, and he believes that as long as the filming of "Home Alone" is successful, it is likely to be popular, and he can also take this opportunity to get out of his current situation.

"It's me! I wonder how much budget Mr. Cameron thinks is needed? "When it comes to the budget, the original Home Alone only cost five million dollars, of course, that was eight years later, and now the US economic crisis makes the budget even lower.

"About three or four million, and I have to count it in detail! If you want to invite those well-known actors, I am afraid that the budget will increase significantly! ”

James? Cameron calculated carefully, after all, this is a comedy scene that is easy to solve, and you only need to borrow a few houses or villas, there are not many actors, and there are no special effects, so naturally the budget is not high. Of course, the salary of well-known American actors is another matter, and every time a well-known actor is added, the budget will naturally increase significantly.

"Forget about well-known actors, just find a rather clever child actor plus two second- and third-rate actors who are used to playing harlequins, and you can see the rest for yourself. The budget can be increased, you just need to shoot him well, and at the latest before Christmas. ”

The movie "Home Alone" did not have well-known actors in the previous life, all of them were character actors, and the budget was not high, but it was able to get such a high box office, the most important thing was naturally the funny and funny script, followed by the director and the main actors.

"Mr. Zhao Chen, you can rest assured that this "Home Alone" is not very difficult, it will only take four or five months to complete!"

"Well, Mr. Cameron, I heard you write your own scripts? If so, you can show me! While talking, Zhao Chen suddenly remembered James? Carnegie's famous work "The Terminator", this movie is James? Cameron wrote the screenplay himself.

"What's the matter, there's no time at all!"

"Yes! Oh, by the way, I actually have a script at home, I'll give it to you when you're ready in a few days, and it's up to you to decide whether you want to direct it or not, and I'll still invest in it! ”

Zhao Chen's eyes lit up, although the box office of "Terminator" is far inferior to "Home Alone", it also has a lot of popularity, and it is also a series of movies. As long as these two classic movies come out, Zhao Chen's status in the United States or the world will be directly raised.

And the evaluation of the film "Terminator" is also good, and the most important thing is that the budget is not high. The action scenes, sets, and plot rhythm of this film are excellent, and it will push Cameron and Arnold's careers to a new level in the future. Arnold gives the impression of a real machine, with no expression on his face, making people feel that nothing can stop him, so that the atmosphere of the film is shrouded in "despair" from the beginning to the end, and there is a sense of fear that makes people feel at the bottom of their hearts. And Connor's mother, who transformed from an otherwise fragile woman to a strong woman, embodies feminism. "The Terminator" became an enduring blockbuster with its fast-paced and tight plot. The stunt shots in the film reflect the future colors of the film, and foreshadow the direction of science fiction films in the future, which is impressive, and the unusual approach has a strong competition in the face of the endless emergence of science fiction films.

is also one of the best sci-fi films in recent decades, a B-grade film with talent. The film was released in 1,112 theaters in North America and grossed nearly $80 million worldwide, including nearly $40 million in the United States.

"Then trouble Mr. Zhao Chen!" James? Cameron's eyes lit up, but his heart was full of excitement, he didn't expect his luck to be so high. Zhao Chen not only took the initiative to find him, but also brought a good script and directed it by him, but he didn't expect that there would be surprises later, how could he not be overjoyed, and suddenly regarded Zhao Chen as his Bole.

"Next, let's talk about Mr. Cameron's remuneration first!"

James? After all, Cameron has only directed one movie, and he is considered a rookie director, and his salary is not high, only 100,000 US dollars. As for the actors of "Home Alone", you can go to the Actors Guild or Warner Bros. Entertainment to find them, and I believe that there will always be suitable actors.

When Zhao Chen continued to stay in the United States for half a month, he returned to the island country after he was ready.

It's just that when Zhao Chen routinely checked the cartoonists who wanted to join the Tianxia Society, he saw a name he hadn't thought of.
