Chapter 1212 Various Thoughts (Part 1)
I can't blame this friend for being tempted suddenly, it's James' blockbuster movie! As long as there is a relationship, a pig can fly! If the artists of our own company can have the opportunity to participate in this, it will be an international model!
Think about those actors who have worked with James before, which one is not a big hit? Mr. Governor, Xiao Lizi, Fat Wen, just pick one out, aren't they all popular superstars, top Hollywood?
Wouldn't it be great if my company could produce an international first-line star? I feel excited just thinking about it!
"Supporting roles are also okay?" Zhao Xiangbei looked at his friend with an inexplicable taste in his eyes: "Mr. Zhuang, co-author, you mean, you still want to try the leading role? A Hollywood blockbuster with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, you Do you think I have the ability?"
"Hi!" Mr. Zhuang is also using the domestic set just now. He wants to intervene if there is any good project, and with his energy, as long as he is willing, he can basically reach into domestic projects if he wants to. At least It also has to be a big match. I got used to it, and even forgot that I was facing Zhao Xiangbei, not a member of the circle: "I'm talking bald. Punish yourself a cup, punish yourself a cup!"
The Zhao Xiangbei in front of him is a good friend, but he is not the kind of friend in the film and television industry who brags about the mountains. To put it bluntly, this man is a proper arms dealer. In terms of energy in the country, he can beat him by ten blocks. This is the master who can casually eat and chat with the commander of the military area and the police area. It's not those scammers in their circle.
After punishing himself with a cup, Mr. Zhuang carefully asked again: "Mr. Zhao, you also know that this is an excellent opportunity. Our domestic stars have never been able to go out. If there is a chance, let alone a supporting role. sure!"
"You're talking lightly, the Hollywood crew can fill in people at will?" Zhao Xiangbei's face softened a little.
"No, Director Zhao, aren't we sponsors?" Mr. Zhuang smiled and toasted: "Isn't it normal for a sponsor to put someone in the crew?"
"That also depends on how much sponsorship is?" Zhao Xiangbei rolled his eyes at Mr. Zhuang and said, "For a big project totaling 500 million US dollars, I've sponsored 10 to 20 million US dollars, and I still want the right to speak? Thinking about something beautiful ? And if I want to sponsor, should I say both.”
Mr. Zhuang was speechless again. Sponsorships are all 10 to 20 million US dollars, which doesn't account for the bulk. If it were in China, the 20 million US dollars would be enough to invest in a big production! The most surprising thing is that I'm afraid I can't find a place to invest with money, and it's not necessary for others.
However, it's normal to think about it! That's the work of director James. A sponsorship of 10 to 20 million dollars, isn't that a small sponsorship? It is estimated that the big director will not even meet the representative of the sponsoring company.
Zhao Xiangbei was just asking about Hollywood's return channels, knowing that Guo Tailai's investment could indeed be returned, so he was relieved. As for the idea of other people wanting to put stars in the crew, Zhao Xiangbei didn't let it out at all, don't even think about it.
Although I don't know how Guo Tailai and director James will work together, Zhao Xiangbei also knows that Guo Tailai will definitely arrange for Miss Xiaoshi to join the crew. Forget it, Fatty has never straightened Miss Xiao Shi, so let him do it!
Alas, if it wasn't for Yan Yan, where would there be these problems? Zhao Xiangbei also had a headache. Let's wait and see what the superiors think, whether they will approve this outrageous way of publicity and promotion, right?
Zhao Xiangbei also thinks that making a movie is a trivial matter. He just asked a professional to ask about Hollywood's profit model. It's a trivial matter. However, when Boss Zhuang lamented drinking with a vice president in the company and accidentally leaked a little bit of his words, the entire domestic entertainment circle immediately boiled.
Some units in China plan to sponsor the project of the great Hollywood director James, and can they talk about it? When I got this news, it wasn't the bosses of one or two companies who were tempted. A group of celebrities who I thought were famous and respectable were also shocked. What would happen if I could join this crew?
There are some things that I can't think about, and I can't help it when I think about it, and the more I think about it, the more excited I get. So without Zhao Xiangbei's knowledge, countless people have already wondered how they could have something to do with Director Zhao and say something nice.
Zhao Xiangbei's request for a report was called up, but there was no reply from above. That afternoon, Zhao Xiangbei's phone was almost ringing off the hook. They are all people who think they can talk to Zhao Xiangbei. They want to set up a suit with Zhao Xiangbei, ask about Hollywood blockbusters, and see if they can get involved in such a world-class film and television blockbuster project.
"Fatty is just planning to make an advertisement, how can he play so big?" Zhao Xiangbei really didn't know that James could have such great energy in the film and television industry, but now he knows it even if he doesn't know it. This is not an advertisement, it is clearly a rocket! When I called my wife Mr. Ding and said that I would not go back for dinner, I couldn't help expressing emotion to my wife on the phone.
"Our family's Yan Yan's vision, so what's the point?" Mr. Ding was proud for a while. He knew that his son-in-law-to-be was not someone in the pool, and he was even more happy now: "Mr. Well, anyway, you don't make the decision, and it just so happens that Mr. Cheng and I have made an appointment to have dinner together, so you don't have to wait for me."
It's not just Zhao Xiangbei and Mr. Ding who are feeling emotional? Almost all the people in the domestic film and television industry are sighing, who has such a big hand?
In other words, as long as director James opens a new movie, it will definitely cause a sensation in the world, but James didn't have any filming plans in the past few years. Why didn't the domestic film and television companies think of asking James to make one or two movies? In the final analysis, isn't it because the domestic market environment is not prosperous enough, and the heads of film and television companies are not bold enough? Of course, it is also related to resisting the impact of Hollywood to a certain extent. However, this is only the case for projects that have no chance to intervene. If there is a chance to intervene, why not?
Han is always a top figure in the domestic film and television industry. As long as Han Sanye's prestige is in the domestic circle, who will not give a thumbs up when he hears it? Contacted Zhao Xiangbei through the relationship, Zhao Xiangbei thought that Han Sanye just wanted to ask if he could put actors in the crew, but Han Sanye had further ideas.
"Participate in investment?" Even Zhao Xiangbei, who casually handed over US$1 billion to 800 million, was shocked when he heard Mr. Han say his thoughts straight to the point: "Let's not talk about whether people will accept it or not. The problem of not being able to invest. Our domestic box office last year alone was just over 100 million US dollars. With such a large investment in this film, how much do you want to invest, Mr. Han?"
