In mid-June, "Resident Evil" began to be promoted in Xiangjiang, and it was full of topics for a while.

Of course, this topic does not include Lin Zuhui's role as a zombie, and this must not be used for publicity, or even made public immediately.

The real topic is that the film has invested a whopping $16 million, making it the largest investment in Hong Kong's history.

However, although it is full of topicality, the industry is unanimously not optimistic that the film can recover its cost.

First of all, this is a movie in which the actress will be the absolute protagonist;

secondly, Liu Dehua also does not have Cheng Long's appeal;

In the end, the theme is actually a zombie sci-fi film.

Of course, everyone was waiting to see the DreamWorks jokes.

Lin Zuhui didn't care much about the box office, and he didn't even pay attention to the news at all. He has decided to privately allocate 100 million yuan a year to cooperate with ATV Group to shoot two to three 'big production' movies a year.

I can't say anything, anyway, he just wants to do something, and I feel that I don't need to use that memory, as if it's a bit of a waste, that's it.

As for those Hollywood blockbuster investments that cost hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn, of course he would not be stupid enough to invest in filming; If you have that idea, you might as well find a way to buy a Hollywood studio!

Of course, he wasn't very interested in making movies, and the reason why he asked DreamWorks to make some blockbuster movies was because he only needed to give a simple command, and it wouldn't cost him time and energy.

But if he buys Hollywood Studios, it's obvious that he's going to have to spend time, and it's a waste of energy. Invest in a few tech companies casually, and make money I don't know how many times it is.

DreamWorks.

Lin Zuhui found Pan Cheng and said: "You prepare another action blockbuster, the content is a pair of male and female killers who meet in Colombia, and then end as a couple, but they don't know each other's identities, and the two handsome men and beauties have been living a peaceful life." But life may be too peaceful, and both of them feel that marriage is almost like a grave, so that even the marriage psychiatrist can't solve the gap between them...... To put it simply, it tells a series of absurd and funny stories that occur between two killers from meeting to falling in love, and then discovering that the target is each other...... The script is probably like this, still looking for Liu Dehua and Yuan Liangliang to star, with an investment of about $15 million....... It's still a simulation of the shooting of Hollywood, and you can even go to Hollywood to find similar movies for reference. ”

He thought of talking about it there, and there was no order, after all, he could only remember some general content and style, but the plot of the Hollywood blockbuster itself was simple.

Pan Cheng listened and wrote, and after putting the pen away, he asked, "The funds invested?" ”

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "I'll let ATV Group give it later, you prepare first, and strive for the Spring Festival release." Remember, I gave you the opportunity to shoot a blockbuster in the hope that your team will grow up, and you must not waste the opportunity. ”

He thought about it carefully, don't rush to pay for it yourself, ATV Group is not without money, why pay for it yourself!

What's more, Lin Zuhui plans to let ATV invest in stocks later, so that he can easily earn back the investment in movies.

After all, the long-term benefits of these movies are impossible for ATV to lose money, and there is no need to pay for it yourself.

Pan Cheng nodded seriously and said, "Boss, rest assured, our group is learning the new shooting mode carefully, and we will soon be familiar with the set of Haolaiwu." ”

"Well, do it as soon as possible and ignore what outsiders think. DreamWorks is to have dreams, to be a good dock in Asia, the group has sufficient funds, can create the golden sign of 'DreamWorks'. ”

Pan Cheng's spirit was shocked, and he immediately said: "I have been taught, boss, I must build a dream factory." ”

Of course, if you have money, you can do whatever you want, and the mainland can already allow Xiangjiang movies to be released, Cheng Long's "Drunken Fist 2" will be released in the mainland Spring Festival this year, Lin Zuhui still remembers that there are tens of millions of box office. As for overseas markets, South Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia, Taiwan Island, etc., can all be released, as long as you have a big cast.

Golden Harvest Films.

Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang, Cheng Long and others are also chatting about DreamWorks' "Resident Evil".

A few years ago, DreamWorks had Zhou Xingchi, Li Lianjie, and Zhou Runhua in its hands, and the annual box office net profit accounted for half of Xiangjiang, which overwhelmed Jiahe. Especially Zhou Xingchi is in DreamWorks, shooting four or five movies a year, and shooting 18 movies in four years, which is simply a box office machine. Li Lianjie signed for three years, and also filmed nine kung fu films, which also performed well. Chow Yunhua's several series of movies have exploded at the box office. For a while, Xiangjiang movies were all DreamWorks performances.

However, after the contract between Zhou Xingchi and Li Lianjie expired, he immediately established his own film company. didn't have a conflict with DreamWorks, it was a peaceful breakup.

These actors are not like Cheng Long, who have a lot of appeal overseas, so there is no need to become a satellite company of DreamWorks. DreamWorks generally issues overseas, in the form of buyouts, which is simple and trouble-free.

Zou Wenhuai said: "I thought that DreamWorks was going to quit, but I didn't expect to make another big production." But can they recover half of the cost of the 16 million principal? ”

He frowned slightly, but he did not despise it, he thought that DreamWorks dared to invest 16 million US dollars, and Pan Cheng did not have this right; Even the president of ATV Group does not have this right. Therefore, it must have been approved by Lin Zuhui.

In this way, with Lin Zuhui's vision, I am afraid that he will not fail easily.

Cheng Long said: "I have watched the promotional video of DreamWorks, and I feel very creative, plus they invited the team of Hollywood to participate in the shooting, it must be very interesting, I have to go to the premiere to see." ”

Cheng Long and Lin Zuhui's past grievances have already been laughed at, and naturally they will not say stingy words.

Fu Wenhuai continued: "There is nothing worth discussing about a movie, but Pan Cheng of DreamWorks has recently publicly said on some occasions that Xiangjiang's films have gone downhill and will die in the late 90s, citing the impact of Hollywood, as well as the impact of piracy, plus the decline in quality. In this way, DreamWorks wants to copy Haolaiwu, no, it is a copycat Haolaiwu! ”

He Guanchang said with a smile: "What's the use of copycat good docking, only by entering good docking, can you earn dollars." However, they don't have a calling star like Jack, which is equal to wild. ”

He Guanchang naturally couldn't let go of what happened back then, but Jack was his friend, and he almost made the two resentful back then.

The group couldn't discuss the reason, but they undoubtedly had the idea of going to see it for the first time, after all, DreamWorks was too hard a few years ago. Is it a resurrection or a final struggle?
