"It seems that their confidence is higher than that of me as an investor. I don't know if the movie they make will be as good as this movie. After all, this is a new genre. It can be controlled well." There are not many directors of this movie. Maybe except for George Lucas and Cameron, there are no other directors in the United States who are good at this type of movie. They don't want to make a good movie. Easy. It is very likely that the movie will be made in the end, but the effect will not be satisfactory. Just like our uncle Liu in Hong Kong, he once saw that Star Wars was very profitable, so he immediately made a movie of the same type, known as It¡¯s Hong Kong¡¯s Star Wars, but in the end, even the capital was not recovered, let alone making money.¡± Li Mingbao said jokingly that the movie Uncle Six asked people to make has now become Hong Kong¡¯s. What a joke. Even because of Uncle Liu's rash move, in the Hong Kong film industry, people are trying out all kinds of movies, but no film company boss is willing to invest in this kind of science fiction movie. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Thirty years later, Hong Kong's science fiction movies will only be those soft science fiction movies by Ni Kuang at most, but the effects are still not very good, which has become a weakness of Hong Kong movies. So although it is very satisfying for others to make a lot of money, when it comes to yourself, you may not be able to continue to make money. This type of movie, even in the United States, only became popular two thousand years later. At that time, people on Wall Street and Hollywood were willing to spend money, and film technology had made great progress. This made this type of movie, It began to glow with new vitality. Before this, it was difficult to see two sci-fi films that were enjoyable to watch. Otherwise, Cameron's debut film would not be rated so highly. It's not because this movie is really that classic and unforgettable, but because the production of this movie is a miracle. It is the debut film of a new director. Long is a white man, which makes people in the upper class interested in promoting hype. If a black director or a director of other skin colors had made such a movie, even if it was a success, it would not have much influence. It will be that big. This is the reality here in the United States. If you want to truly succeed, you must have various opportunities and come up with things that others cannot refuse. Only then can you truly succeed. The fact that Li Mingbao made so much money when he came to the United States is actually in line with this rule. First of all, he made money from the horror film market, which Hollywood did not pay much attention to in the United States. Secondly, he had a relationship with 20th Century Fox from the beginning. , used his own interests to open the door of this large company, and this gave him the foundation for doing well in the United States. After that, Li Mingbao continued to be a money-splitting boy, and only then did he have his current foundation, which directly allowed him to He gained recognition from local consortiums. Without these, it would be impossible for him to make money here. ??Zou Wenhuai is a model of failure. When he brought Chen Long to the United States, he very grandly said that he would dump 60 million US dollars in Hollywood and pretend to be an international superstar. What was the result? The money was thrown out, but the effect was not that ideal. Although he did not lose much in the end and even made some small profits, Chen Long's popularity in Hollywood in this era is really not that high, otherwise he would You won¡¯t be so angry that you go back to Hong Kong to make movies. It¡¯s not that you can¡¯t survive. Why do you think Chen Long wants to go back? Regarding Li Mingbao's words, John said unconcernedly: "If this market can really make a lot of money, then Hollywood will always be able to find enough people to participate in this type of film production. In There is basically no shortage of anything in Hollywood, especially in the film field. There are so many talents. It has absorbed industry talents from all over North America and Europe. The potential that Hollywood can explode, even those of us who are the bosses, I don¡¯t know to what extent it will reach, so don¡¯t underestimate the people here. With enough benefits, what can¡¯t they do? Of course, that must be done with benefits, and now. Well, your movie will become a touchstone for them. If the effect is good, then people behind will definitely flock to it. If the effect is not good, or it cannot achieve their inner goals, then this type of movie will It still needs to wait and develop. They definitely have enough patience to wait for good news. To a certain extent, the reason why your movie is released and promoted so smoothly is because of the Christmas schedule. It's very tight, everyone is preparing to make a lot of money during this period, and the competition is quite fierce. However, when your movie was released, there were no too aggressive movies before and after, and the film schedule was quite large. Yes, the premiere can have more than 2,000 screens. For other movies, if you want to achieve the same effect, the price you pay will definitely be higher than what you paid.? costs more. " Hearing what John said, Li Mingbao suddenly remembered that the promotion and release of the Terminator movie did seem to be a little too smooth. Before, Li Mingbao thought this was because of the recent good performance of DreamWorks, coupled with the two Because of his relationship with Tenth Century Fox, he was able to get such preferential treatment. But now that he heard what John said, Li Mingbao naturally knew that it could not be that simple at all. This was because someone was treating him as a stepping stone. Give him some benefits, and then see if there is a market for this type of movie. Regarding such a thing, Li Mingbao was really dumbfounded. It seems that when the movie "Terminator" was released, there was no such preferential treatment. How did it end up here? , but it has so many benefits? He didn't believe that when The Terminator in the Past Life was released, the bosses of the film companies couldn't see the benefits of such a movie, but why didn't the Terminator in the Past Life get such treatment? The box office performance in the previous life was not ideal. The global box office did not exceed 100 million. Although it made a lot of money, after all, it cannot be compared with those popular movies. A good reputation does not mean A good box office. This is like some good films that are called tear-jerking by film critics, but in the end they flop at the box office. There are too many examples of this. Li Mingbao himself must not know why he receives such preferential treatment, but in the John on the side is very clear about why the giant companies in Hollywood treat Li Mingbao so favorably. It is not that they want to gain Li Mingbao's favor. For them, Li Mingbao is still a small character. Although his strength is quite good, he is not good at it. As for making them kneel and lick, the reason for this is entirely because Li Mingbao has made quite a lot of achievements in genre films, and people have to pay attention to it. When Li Mingbao came to the United States, he made a comedy. Home Alone. This movie brought Li Mingbao countless praises, and it also brought him countless money. Although it is not uncommon for people like Li Mingbao to become famous in Hollywood, it is not uncommon. It's rare. Every year or two, one or two foreigners will appear like this. The difference lies in whether they earn more or less, so it's not worth many people's attention if they want to continue to be lucky. , is not that easy. But after Li Mingbao gained so much capital from comedy films, he immediately started to enter a new field, the horror film industry. This industry has never been taken seriously by people in Hollywood. There are too many types. Niche, on the screen, can't sell for much, and only in the video tape market, there is still a certain profit. In such a field, a newcomer is looking for death. But Li Mingbao is a different kind. , not only did he not kill himself in this field, on the contrary, he has achieved unprecedented success in this field. Up to now, although the horror movie genre is still a niche movie, it has Profits have been exploited a lot by Li Mingbao. Not only did DreamWorks make money, but even those giant companies also made a lot of money from this type of movies. Once is luck, but twice is still luck? For people like Li Mingbao who have made many investments without failure, it would be really nonsense if people in Hollywood don¡¯t take him seriously. Anyone in Hollywood who knows how to make money and can make money will not ignore them. Even if this person is a nigger or a yellow-skinned person, they will still pay attention to them. They look down on people of color, but that doesn¡¯t mean they look down on Franklin. With Franklin's existence, even if they make a deal with the devil, it won't be a problem for them. This is the quality that a true American upper class must possess. Those top people in Hollywood naturally belong to this class. So when Li Mingbao started developing a new type of movie, everyone naturally started to pay attention. When Li Mingbao got rich for the first time, they couldn't benefit from it. When he got rich for the second time, they only had some leftovers, and Li Mingbao made the majority of it. This kind of thing is definitely a very uncomfortable thing for those arrogant white people. And now, Li Mingbao is obviously going to enter the third movie type. As long as they are not stupid and don't have trouble with their own money, of course they have to let this type of movie fully shine with his brilliance. Only in this way can he Can they accurately judge whether this type of movie is a gold mine? Is it something that everyone has ignored like the two fields that Li Mingbao entered before? It is for this reason that Li Mingbao's movie went extremely smoothly both in terms of promotion and release. It's not because those American consortiums want to sell Li Mingbao well, but because they regard Li Mingbao as a pathfinder. If this type of movie is really that good, thenThey will definitely occupy this new field quickly without hesitation, and will not give Li Mingbao time to accumulate at all. Regarding this point, even John has such thoughts. It's just that he and Li Mingbao are still partners, so he needs to give Li Mingbao some warning. If Li Mingbao can understand, that's naturally a good thing. If he can't understand, John won't continue to talk.
