Chapter 826 The Jurassic Project Starts

Putting down the materials, Yang Cheng rubbed his eyes, the smile on the corners of his mouth could not be concealed, and he could never make too much money.

"By the way, speaking of Stephen, have you discussed the Jurassic project with him?"

At the beginning of the year, Donna Lande and Yang Cheng reported their overall plan for the new era film industry. The most important thing was to prepare a signature IP series. They aimed at the creatures of the ancient century——dinosaurs. Unknown things are always full of enthusiasm. Even though "Jurassic Park" has been released for 20 years, when people mention dinosaurs, they can always think of the domineering images in the movie.

Therefore, Yang Cheng is very optimistic about this plan, and he doesn't know how the preparations are going.

Donna Round couldn't help laughing, looking very confident, "At first, I wanted to cooperate with Stephen and give him a part of the investment, but after thinking about it, this matter has nothing to do with him, even in his name, At most, it saves a little effort in publicity, and it doesn’t have much positive effect on the final box office, after all, it is a completely original IP, so why should we share the cake?”

Yang Cheng laughed and shook her head, "So, how is your plan going?"

Donna Round pulled out another blue folder with "Jurassic World" written on it, and handed it to Yang Cheng, "This is a short novel that I asked someone to recreate. It almost restructured Jurassic Park. These ancient creatures were placed on a small island far away from the mainland, which is the paradise that modern children most yearn for.”

Yang Cheng opened the file, and the first page was a rendering of Jurassic Park. In the picture, there were green mountains and green waters, a brontosaurus roaring up to the sky, a blue dragon dominating the sea, and a bloody tyrannosaurus rex. At the same time, each This kind of sci-fi amusement facilities are all over the island, just a rendering, constructing the world of dinosaurs in people's fantasy.

Then I turned to the novel part at the back and scanned a few pages at a glance. The plot was roughly the same as the "Jurassic World" produced by Universal. If Donna Lande was still at Universal, I'm afraid this project has already started~

However, Yang Cheng and New Era Pictures are now cheaper.

"Very good. Now that the novel has been released, the script will be ready soon, right? When will the filming start? What are the planning cycle and budget?"

Yang Cheng closed the folder and slapped it on the table, which seemed to be a complete finalization of the big plan.

Donna Round said solemnly, "My plan is to make a trilogy first, with the plot as coherent as possible, with a total investment of 500 million U.S. dollars. The first part is expected to cost 150 million U.S. dollars, and most of the funds will be used for special effects. The production, if all goes well, will meet the global audience in two years, and then maintain the rhythm of one film a year, and re-enter the hearts of this IP for three consecutive years."

Yang Cheng tapped his fingers on the table and pondered for a moment, "Budget is not a problem, even the budget for the first film can be adjusted to 200 million US dollars, we must create the best visual effects, and strive for a good reputation at the box office."

Every time money is involved, Donna Lange will be full of relief. Yang Cheng, the boss, always maintains a positive attitude when it comes to investment. Unlike other bosses, for 100,000 US dollars, it takes several days to make a deal. Decision, not to mention the time delay, will also dispel the enthusiasm of employees.

"Boss, don't worry, this budget has fully considered all aspects and is definitely sufficient. The reason why it seems insufficient is because we do not plan to invite long-established stars to star. After all, we want to create a series.

It is not suitable for the main creative team to change too much, so in the selection of actors, we must focus on those second- and third-tier stars who are just a little famous and not high in salary, but their acting skills are acceptable, so as to leave room for their future salary increases. "

Donna Round explained patiently.

Yang Cheng suddenly realized that, sure enough, there are too many twists and turns in Hollywood, even though he is now half of the people in Hollywood, and he is a top Hollywood boss, but some details are still unclear. Come on, otherwise New Era Pictures will have to rely on his prophetic advantage, which has only a few years left.

"That's fine, let professional people do the professional things. I'm assured. If you need anything, just mention it. I'll do my best to help you."

Yang Cheng said it casually, but who would have thought that Donna Lande would really need it, "Boss, I heard you bought the Lanai Island in Hawaii?"

"Uh~ That's right, what's wrong?"

"That's right, we are planning to put the filming location of "Jurassic World" in Hawaii. After investigating several major islands, we found that Lanai Island is the most suitable, of course, including Dinosaur Bay on Oahu and Kualoa Ranch , are all excellent shooting locations, so I would like to ask the boss for your convenience."

Yang Cheng thought about it. Indeed, these places are very suitable for interpreting Jurassic World. Dinosaur Bay is considered to be one of the best diving spots on Oahu Island. It is the home of various fish and corals.

Crystal clear waters, shallow coves, everything is beautiful and can be reached on foot or by driving down a steep path.

When driving through Dinosaur Bay, you will also see the sea spring spout. After the white foamy sea water flows through a lava tunnel, it will make a huge wave of 18 meters high, which is perfect as the habitat of the mosasaur.

The Kualoa Ranch is also known as the hometown of the ancient Hawaiians. The strong trade wind blows here all the year round, causing the mountain to be eroded into an accordion shape by the strong wind. Coupled with the perennial dense vegetation, Kualoa has formed a very peculiar green landscape. , very Jurassic sense of sight.

It is also the filming location of "Jurassic Park", where the dinosaurs ran wild, the place where fat Hurley played golf in "Lost", and the monster footprints in "Godzilla" were all filmed here.

Because of the magical natural scenery of Gualoa itself, coupled with the strong influence of Hollywood movies, Gualoa Ranch has been branded with such a profound cultural symbol as "God's Land". The filming location of "Romance World" is also reasonable.

Coupled with the charming scenery of Lanai Island, with today's special effects technology, it will definitely be able to best present the view of paradise on earth!

Yang Cheng didn't hesitate at all, "Of course, you can go there to take pictures at any time. The only requirement I ask of you is to protect the local environment. I don't want to see a movie finished and my private resort island be destroyed and turned into a garbage dump."

Tang Na knew that Yang Cheng was teasing, but she still gave her a guarantee, "Boss, it is our responsibility to protect the environment. Please rest assured that we still have to charge fees that should be charged, as long as there is an appropriate discount!"

Yang Cheng laughed, "No problem~"
