Chapter 486 Jurassic Park
A deserted island in the Caribbean finally welcomed its first batch of guests. The island, named Jurassic Park, once again entered the public eye.
The film production speed of White Pictures has obviously slowed down in recent years, especially those so-called blockbuster films. Not to mention the 007 that keeps skipping tickets, even the legendary Jurassic Park has never been followed.
Well now, since the richest man is on vacation, he should have some clues about that Jurassic Park movie.
Spielberg was very conflicted, and William White gave him a difficult problem. Yes, the movie will be in the latest IMAX technology.
Speaking of this IMAX company, it can be regarded as a great achievement for William White. What a few young people fiddled with, although very amazing. However, without funding and no support, to be honest, without William White's shot, this company may be over.
3D movies are not a new thing in Hollywood. This thing was popular for a while in the 1970s. It is a pity that due to too many shoddy productions, after the craze is over, it will naturally be a piece of chicken feathers.
Spielberg's hesitation was only for a moment. For him, although money is important, what is more important is a breakthrough for himself. Without a doubt, Jurassic Park is exactly that type of movie.
"Old man, don't get entangled. I'm trying to say that he only let me invest 10%. He has high hopes for this movie. If it wasn't for me, I couldn't make it. Alas, damn it, you are so enviable."
"George, just talk about it. You know very well that if this thing is feasible, Star Wars should benefit the most. Haha, didn't they say it, the price is whatever you want."
"Hmph, I don't know how to sell, that's my child." George Lucas had a proud face, and he didn't take the old friend's ridicule very seriously.
"A filming budget of 60 million US dollars, Lucas, this is really a rich man." Spielberg obviously didn't intend to continue the topic just now, so he couldn't help but talk about the budget this time.
"Hehe, it's definitely considered a big deal. Including post-production and publicity, it's close to 100 million yuan. I think this is the movie with the largest investment in the world, right?"
"The biggest in the world? George, look at this paradise under your feet. There is no billion dollars, so you don't even have to think about it."
Having said that, Lucas is also a little relieved. With such a large investment, of course it will not let outsiders take advantage of it. If it wasn't for him to have a special effects company with a 13-year-old special effects company, people wouldn't bother with it at all.
Jurassic Park, of course, is not as simple as a few dinosaurs. There are not only aquariums, but also very exciting rides. Games such as rapids and roller coasters are all missing.
The employees of the company naturally like this place very much, and they come to play with their families. These things that children like very much are naturally very popular.
If you are a little tired, you can also choose to go to sea. Of course, there are also golf courses and tennis centers on the island. In short, everything you can think of is here. Best of all, it's completely free.
Well, it’s not accurate to say that it’s free. To be precise, the boss is responsible for paying the bill, as long as you have fun.
"Honey, there are so many people in your company?"
"How is it possible? Those are their relatives. Husband is bleeding heavily this time. You should comfort him."
Jiaxin's little beauty gave this guy an angry look, the little beauty was a little funny, this guy, when he played a rascal, he was like a child.
"Hmph, what else do you want, everyone is like that. Or, wait until the baby is born."
"Well, well, really, say that every time."
In desperation, William White could only seek comfort in other places. As for the absurdity of it, there is no need to say much.
"Jason, how is it? Are they having fun?"
"That's right, it's been a long time since we've had such an event at home."
"Still, it seems that Chinese people are like this. They don't like traveling or spending money."
Jason Gao was powerless to complain. What William White said is indeed true. It is not easy for Chinese to enter the mainstream society of the United States. This is also an important factor.
"It's been better recently, but it seems to be a bit overdue. Anyway, there are fewer and fewer people in that Chinatown, and many young people are unwilling to go back."
"Cut, what's there to do in a messy place?"
"That's right, the law and order is so bad, the rich will naturally choose to leave."
This is not William White's nonsense, no matter where Chinatown is, the location is not good.
Since the location is not good, the house price will not be too expensive. Rates are collected here in the United States, that is, property taxes. The higher the housing prices, the more they will be charged. The money is used to pay police salaries.
Of course, Chinatown is passable, the worst is the black dude neighborhood, Queens in New York, Old Town in Detroit, if there is no shooting in these places for a day, it is basically a miracle.
"Boss, the scene here is bigger than Lanai Island. Will there be so many tourists in the future?"
"Hehe, there's nothing to worry about. You'll know when the film is finished. It will definitely attract a lot of tourists. Besides, even if there aren't too many tourists, it's not a big deal. The staff recreation center is also good. I didn't expect that there would be so many people."
Well, the employee entertainment center, this one is indeed very rich.
"Boss, you don't want to pay taxes, do you?"
"Hahaha, smart, that's it. At the end of the year, you will spend your money desperately. Instead of handing it over to those bastards to fight the war, it's better to make the employees cheaper."
After breakfast, the group decided to play golf. After all, they are not children, amusement parks or something, just make a point of it.
The outside world is also full of curiosity about this island, but the security here is much higher than that of Lanai Island. Lanai is still a helicopter like Black Hawk, here is the Apache and Ka 50. If you don't have permission, it's better to stay away from this island.
The paparazzi who are planning to come here to try their luck have never seen this posture before. These bastards really dare to shoot.
Facing such a domineering guy, a group of paparazzi are helpless. To put it bluntly, if they were accidentally killed by others, it would be bad luck. Including the island and the surrounding sea, those are private territories.
Of course, the black buddies in the Bahamas are somewhat dissatisfied, but who made them greedy for money. If you go to buy islands now, there will be many restrictions, and you will never be so unscrupulous.
As for those that have already been sold, there is nothing to be done. If it's an ordinary local tyrant, it's easy to handle. Let's forget about the richest man in the United States.
Someone said, why are you making so many moths? Those who open an amusement park can make money if they can't make money.
Hehe, this place is really bad. The Americans banned alcohol, so they secretly shipped the wine to Miami. The Americans did not allow the sale of Cuban cigars, and they remained the same. You can't do business without flexing your muscles with a bunch of assholes around.
