Chapter 781 Is 80 million dollars a lot of investment in a play?
"This sequel will be far beyond the previous work. The characters are full, the theme is profound, and the connotation is rich. If the special effects are done well, this film will be an epoch-making science fiction masterpiece. "Almost at the same time as Schwarzenegger, James Cameron also received an invitation to film.
However, unlike Schwarzenegger's agent, there is only a story summary, Cameron got the complete script.
Because Qiao Feng had extensive communication with Cameron when he was writing this script.
To the God of Card, Qiao Feng gave great respect.
Although it was a work of plagiarizing the God of Card, Qiao Feng did not occupy the honor alone, but instead brought Cameron to write the script together.
Firstly, it is out of respect for God of Card, and secondly, many of the latest special effects and models are used in this movie. Qiao Feng needs Cameron to have an in-depth understanding from the screenwriter stage and have a shooting plan in advance so that the shooting can be smoother.
After all, this is not the same as the first one. The first one was a script written by Cameron himself, so he was familiar with all the links and the effects he wanted to achieve.
Qiao Feng gave respect, and Ka God also expressed great recognition and high evaluation of the story framework proposed by Qiao Feng and the details in it.
Speaking of which, Qiao Feng had no choice. He wanted to shoot the Terminator, but was afraid that Cameron would not have this idea yet. After asking Cameron that he did not have a clear plan, Qiao Feng had to write the script himself.
You should know that Ka God is a super ink-like director. When he takes the initiative to shoot, he will have to wait for a year if he doesn't do it well.
Take the first Terminator for example. According to Cameron himself, that was an idea that he had in 1979.
In 1979, James Cameron was not called the God of Ka.
One day, when his career was at a low point, he had a dream - a metal man walked out of a raging fire, his skin was burned, revealing his hideous steely face.
Taking this dream as the starting point, Cameron completed the script.
The movie was released in 1984 and won $90 million in box office for a cost of $6 million. The movie fans and critics cheered.
The name of this movie is "Terminator".
In five years, Ka God only devoted himself to such a script, a movie, and then became a hit.
Unlike other popular directors who work overtime to shoot more new films, Kassan only made two movies in six years and wrote three scripts, two of which were filmed by him. In other words, Kassan actually produced three works in six years, an average of one in two years.
This span is not to mention Hong Kong, which has made several movies a year, but is considered a very low-yield director even in Hollywood.
And now it has been another year since the Abyss of the last work of Kashen.
The Terminator is finally put on the shooting schedule.
"Cameron's investment requirement for this drama is 80 million US dollars. Is this investment too big?" After Qiao Feng hung up Cameron's call, Li Zhi asked with some confusion and concern.
She thought that the terminator could have 30 to 40 million yuan, which would be as high as 007's murder license.
Just then she felt that the investment was too big and wanted Qiao Feng to be cautious and cautious.
As a result, Cameron called to praise the script and then made an investment requirement that was far more than twice her expected investment amount.
Lizhi listened so hard that she was not choking to death.
This guy is too brave to ask for it.
Now that Hollywood invests $30 to 40 million, that is a super big production, with an investment of $80 million. Is Cameron going to make a movie that has never been before and has won all other films at the box office?
No, such investment requirements are too excessive.
Lizhi felt that Cameron must be crazy and that he must stop Qiao Feng.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Lizhi's doubts, Qiao Feng smiled indifferently, as if he had no feeling at all when he spoke to Cameron's lion.
Of course, Qiao Feng didn't feel anything about the investment of 80 million US dollars.
Even if his net worth is more than 20 billion US dollars, his investment of nearly 100 million US dollars is still not a small amount.
However, Qiao Feng believes in Cameron, just as he believes that with the advantage of the rebirth, he will definitely stand on the top of the world.
He is full of confidence.
Because Cameron is the God of Casino, and because this movie, which is expected to invest 80 million US dollars, is called Terminator.
Terminator is one of Qiao Feng’s most unforgettable Terminator series, and even the original time-space contact Terminator series begins with this Terminator Doomsday Judgment.
At that time, Qiao Feng was completely confused when he finished watching the Terminator.
Just like the brief deafness after the explosion, there is only a buzzing sound.
Qiao Feng feels that this movie may have established the concept of American blockbusters for the first time in the movie history of many people.
People at that time had not seen much of the world.
What is an American blockbuster?
It's the kind of film that can make you "don't stop!" and "don't stop".
To be honest, this feeling has been a long time.
Thirty years later, Hollywood movie special effects upgraded, with complete industry and accurate division of labor, and still mass-produced standard and qualified fast-moving consumer goods.
But how long has it been since people felt the suffocation of being manipulated by the God of Movies?
For people thirty years later, that feeling has been long.
Even if the Terminator is viewed thirty years later, it is a God-like existence.
Records of time.
When it was filmed, the first movie in the history of film that invested over 100 million US dollars was also released.
Kass is worthy of being the creator of the record.
A big bet that won a global box office of $500 million, and it will remain the most profitable film in the series thirty years later.
Thirty years later, when Kathy God was about to start filming "Terminator 6", he chose to follow the plot of "Terminator" and directly ignored the subsequent sequels.
For the Lord of Cards, "Terminator" is undoubtedly the one worthy of "continuing".
Because the Terminator has timeless thinking.
A doomsday trial initiated by artificial intelligence.
The intelligent missile defense system "Skynet" developed by the United States has created self-awareness and regards all human beings as a threat.
It fired a nuclear bomb at Russia, triggering a nuclear war, and billions of people died on the same day.
In order to master the right to write history, "The Future" sent two types of robots to "The Present" to murder and protect the little boy John Connor, because he would become a human leader when he grew up.
Artificial intelligence, nuclear war, time travel... Thirty years later, it is still a hot topic in science fiction films.
As for the Moji of Ka Shen, he is indeed Moji, and this is irrefutable. No one can say that the Moji of Ka Shen is a very efficient director.
But the ink traces of Kashen have the truth. The films he made can create history almost every time, which even Spielberg could not do.
Chapter completed!
