Chapter 662: Seeing the Money

Although with the development of the times, the revenue from peripheral products accounts for an increasing proportion of the revenue of film companies, but generally speaking, no one can think of peripherals like a ship.

After all, if you make a movie about a ship, the ship can be sold as a merchandise, so if you make a movie about arms, can Hollywood also sell arms?

Although in Charlotte's original time and space, "Lord of War" released in 2005 did show off like this - not only was it a perfect commercial for an arms dealer, but many of the arms in it were indeed real arms, and they were really sold afterward.

But such violent peripheral products, after all, are not common.

Moreover, in this time and space, it has not yet reached the year 2005, and no one knows about it except Charlotte.

...... In short, Charlotte pointed to the three large wooden boats in the huge tank of Rosarito, and said that these were all "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie peripherals, and they all sold the hole in advance, which still made everyone in the crew admire it.

And in fact, he did not lie-

Of the three ships, the "Intrepid" was booked in advance by a wealthy Australian man whose family has a lot of mines.

- This is still the thread that Nicole Kidman pulled;

And the "Interceptor" was bought by Elote Rhodes, a wealthy man in Silicon Valley in the United States.

- Silicon Valley Duo Geek, this new rich man who has made a fortune on the Internet wave, but he prefers old-fashioned wooden sailboats, and among the weirdos in Silicon Valley, he can only be regarded as ordinary.

And he was able to get to know Charlotte because Charlotte invested in Google.

- Elote Rhodes is also one of Google's investors, and Charlotte is also a nodding friend.

And after hearing that Charlotte was planning to make a pirate-themed commercial blockbuster, the Geek billionaire who likes wooden sailboats approached Charlotte......

As for the last "Black Pearl", the buyer was Charlotte herself.

The reason-

"What, you're going to have the Ovilia ghost ship attached directly to the Black Pearl!?"

When chatting in private, Ruifan, who heard Charlotte's plan, only felt that his boss's brain hole had simply broken through the sky.

"Did you do that, did you discuss it with Charlize?"

Because Alexis was filming "Island Cry" in the UK, Riven felt that he couldn't stop Charlotte, so he had to move the name Charlize.

And yet—

"I'm just for Sally!"

Charlotte looks like a good man who loves his wife,

"Sally loves the feeling of driving the Orvilia around the world, but the problem is that she's a living person, and she's always piloting a ghost ship in spirit form, which is not good for her health after all. And if the Orvilia is attached to the physical "Black Pearl", then she may be able to sail in the open sea in real form!"

“......”

It wasn't until this moment that Riven realized that he and Charlotte were not of the same class.

- Even if Ruifan is still alive and his career is at its most prosperous, he is just a new star in Hollywood, playing yachts or something, although it is not impossible, but after all, it is a little bit worse.

And today's Charlotte, with a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, is naturally free to play yachts like many rich people.

What's even more commendable is that as a master speller, he can also play with the wooden sailing ship attached to the ghost ship......

"Ruifan, don't even think about stopping him!"

Sitting on the side, photographer Addison Young, who is also an insider, looked very open,

"After all, using a ghost ship as a yacht or something, it does sound very emotional. I'm more interested in something else now—"

As he spoke, he looked at Charlotte,

"After we sold these boats, did we save the cost of filming?"

"It's not just saving!"

Charlotte shrugged,

"After selling the Dreadnought and Interceptor ahead of schedule, we have already earned back all the cost of manufacturing these three prop ships, and we have made more than two million additional dollars. ”

“......”

"Charlotte, let's just build all the boats in your second and third scripts!"

Addison Young's eyes flashed with the golden light of dollars,

"If you can build a "Flying Dutchman", it will definitely sell for more expensive, right?"

“...... Maybe!"

Looking at Mr. Photographer's fanatical appearance, Charlotte suddenly felt that he had entered the wrong profession.

In fact, it was not only Addison Young who was shocked by the price of Charlotte's super merchandise.

When Charlotte, as the first producer of "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew, finalized the sales contracts for the ships and sent them to Philip Bierman, who was the executive producer, to discuss the details, the producer, who was busy negotiating contracts with a group of agents, was shocked.

He flew directly to Rosarito, and as soon as they met, he made a similar suggestion to Mr. Photographer -

"Let's build a few more!"

“...... How can it be so easy!"

Charlotte smiled wryly and shook her head,

"Although there are many rich people in this world who have quirky hobbies, there are only a few who are willing to spend a lot of money to buy this kind of peripheral prop boat!"

"You're right!"

Philip Bierman was also a little embarrassed.

He understood that Charlotte was right.

In fact, if it weren't for Charlotte's name, "Pirates of the Caribbean" would have become popular before it was released, I'm afraid that this kind of good thing of selling prop ships as peripheral in advance would not have appeared at all.

And when he had already encountered two miracles and wanted to continue to pray for more miracles, Philip Bierman felt that he was indeed thinking too much.

But—

"Can we try to find a buyer first, and if we do, then rebuild the prop boat?"

With the money in hand and not making money, Philip is not so open-minded.

In response, Charlotte shrugged,

"If you can do it — though, I'll say in advance, I can sell these two boats for that high price, not only because the buyers themselves like old-fashioned wooden handmade boats, but also because they were part of the Pirates of the Caribbean — if you're too slow to find a buyer, the boat won't be built in time. ”

"I understand this!"

Philip Bierman nodded,

"However, if the second and third parts are to be filmed immediately, then the "Flying Dutchman" will at least be built, right?"

"Yes. ”

Charlotte didn't deny this,

"However, this is the only one, and I don't plan to build all the other ships in a real way—a ship that doesn't come out much, doesn't need so many real things. ”

"Okay!"

Philip understood what Charlotte meant,

"I'll try to figure out a way for the crew to build more real boats. ”

"Then it's up to you!"

Charlotte said lightly. (https:)
