World-class director in the entertainment industry

Phoenix.

On the edge of the city, in the middle of the desert.

"Oh...oh...oh..."

"Kill...kill..."

"Blood donor, you can't escape..."

A rusty oil tank truck with a shovel installed on the front ran wildly in the desert.

Behind and around, there are many motorcycles and various modified cars chasing him.

Everyone on the vehicle was basically covered in white and scary, bald men who looked like leukemia patients, yelling like crazy, shouting from time to time, mixed with words threatening the people inside the tanker.

"Chairman, it's lunch time, and the booked air ticket is at one o'clock."

When Qin Dong finished filming a new story, Zheng Dajun came over to remind him.

"understood."

Qin Dong paused for a moment before he understood what he meant, raised his loudspeaker, stood up and shouted to the crew:

"Okay, today's shooting is over, I will give you a day off, and I will be shooting tomorrow afternoon."

"yeah..."

"Okay..."

Many people cheered, it is really hard to shoot in the desert in this summer.

Qin Dong looked around and found that most of the people shouting were foreigners, and these people were representatives of not being able to endure hardship.

"Oh, Qin, you finally realized your conscience. I can take a good rest. I'm basking in the sun in the desert every day. I'm almost turning into a black man."

Nicolas Cage walked over with Charlize Theron, but the voice arrived before anyone arrived.

"Nicolas, if Charlize said this, I agree, but you, you have been on leave for more than a month and have been on leave for ten days. You are not qualified to say that."

Qin Dong complained bluntly when he heard the words.

"No, Qin Dong, although I asked for leave for a few days, it was also for the promotion of your movie [Super Human Body]. This is your movie."

Nicholas had an expression that you got a cheap deal and acted like a good boy.

"Well, you can rest well, but don't cause any trouble."

Qin Dong also knew this, so he didn't say much, and finally gave a warning.

Nicolas Cage is also one of the leading roles in [Super Human Body], or the supporting role is suitable, and it is also one of the three important supporting roles. In the case that Mr. Li Xuejian does not come to North America, and Wu Zhenyu's reputation is not enough in the world. According to the main female lead, Scarlett can't be counted on alone. Nicholas, a veteran superstar, must go out and make frequent appearances to promote the movie.

Even if the new movie is being shot now, Qin Dong still wants Nicholas to go out to promote it, but it's really annoying to run back and forth like this. Nicholas complains, and Qin Dong understands, so he doesn't say much.

"Don't worry, I know your habits and will be honest during the filming."

Nicholas nodded and agreed.

This Huaxia director didn't have the habit of going to nightclubs or smoking marijuana. These Nicholas knew it and were willing to cooperate for the sake of the future. The big deal was to go home and smoke slowly after the movie was shot.

"Qin, I didn't expect you to have a movie released again. Congratulations again, and I wish your movie a big hit at the box office."

Charlize waited until the two men had finished speaking before smiling and congratulating them.

"Thank you, but this is my screenplay, not my movie."

Qin Dong nodded with a smile and explained.

When I wrote the movie script of [2012 Doomsday], I originally kept it for myself, but Qin Dong did the calculations carefully and found that the special effects for this movie were too expensive. At that time, there was no capital to exchange for artificial intelligence. In this case, you can only find a few special effects companies in Hollywood, and the budget must reach 2 million U.S. dollars, which is not worthwhile.

If there is no accident, it is a bit difficult for this movie to make money at the box office. In order not to affect his reputation, Qin Dong gave up.

At that time, director Roland Emmerich wanted to shoot doomsday themes. Qin Dong simply opened his mouth and asked for a high share of the global box office. This would not affect his reputation, but he could also take the opportunity to make some money and praise his country. artist, perfect.

This movie cost more than [-] million U.S. dollars in the previous life, tens of millions of publicity expenses, and the final box office seemed to be only about [-] million U.S. dollars.

It looks like a lot, but if you calculate it carefully, it is not, because the box office in North America is small.

1.6 million in North America and more than 5 million in other regions.

The 8000-15.00 opening in North America is only 20.00 million, while the box office in other places is between 8000% and 5000%. That is to say, the box office profit in other regions is between [-] million and [-] million.

In other words, the best result of this movie is that the box office will be divided into about 3000 million.

But the film cost more than [-] million yuan, plus tens of millions of publicity fees, not to mention [-] million, it would be nearly [-] million.

No matter how you calculate it, you won't make money, at least for the box office, it's good to keep your capital without losing money, let alone make a profit.

The follow-up can only be paid back by offline discs and other copyrights.

At that time, Qin Dong didn't have enough money to exchange for artificial intelligence, and the cost was too high. At that time, the capital was not enough, so it was not worthwhile, so he naturally gave up the movie.

It can be filmed, and the 7 million box office can also make a name for itself, but Qin Dong has so many scripts, there is no need to spend all his net worth, and finally make a movie that cannot be returned at the box office.

......

6 month 21 day.

Los Angeles.

Seven o'clock in the afternoon.

As night fell, the lights of the city flickered on.

Huaxia Grand Theater.

The busiest theater in the world, too many movies hold their world premieres in this theater every year.

【2012 End of the World】.

At this time, a large film and television sign was hung in the cinema, and the name of the film was flashing on the lights.

On the poster, a Chinese middle-aged man drives an ultra-long Rolls-Royce and flies up from the crack in the ground that is more than ten meters long. Behind the car is a picture of a tall building collapsing, and in the distance is a plane emitting smoke. Falling, there are flames everywhere in the city, and a poster can tell at a glance that this is a city scene where a major disaster has occurred.

At this time, the red carpet has been laid, fans on both sides are in place, and the reporters have set up their shooting tools early.

Everything is ready and waiting for stars from all walks of life, as well as the film director and actors of the premiere to appear on the red carpet.

"Huaxia Qin..."

"Oh... Blake..."

"Kate, I love you..."

Without keeping the fans waiting for a long time, stars from all walks of life appeared one after another.

Now in the theater...

"Qin, let me introduce you to Columbia's president, Jeff Black. Director Roland Emmerich collaborated with Columbia on the [2012 End of the World] movie."

Martin pulled Qin Dong to introduce him.

This is not a movie he made. Qin Dong was naturally too lazy to walk on the red carpet at the back. He stepped on the red carpet at the front and came to the theater.

Looking at the elderly Caucasian man in front of him, Qin Dong remained calm, did not smile, and did not take the initiative to extend his hand to say hello, just quietly sized him up like this.

"Director Qin, nice to meet you."

Jeff Black's face changed, but he still smiled, stretched out his hand and explained:

"I know that Director Qin may have misunderstood me and Columbia, but it is really a misunderstanding. Columbia has sued Judi Danqi. This bitch has nothing to do with Columbia, and it has brought us bad influence. Not only the influence The box office of [007] also caused Director Qin to misunderstand us, this time Columbia will definitely sue to the end and make this bitch compensate for the loss."

Why Qin Dong is so indifferent, Jeff Black understands very well.

Although Jeff has a bad impression of Qin Dong, after all, this Chinese director has caused Colombia a lot of losses.

[007] is a super-long movie series that has exploded all over the world, and it is also a money-making machine for Colombia.

But this Huaxia made the latest movie [007 Skyfall] not be released in China, and it lost tens of millions of dollars. Thinking of this, Jeff feels distressed.

But impressions are impressions. As the president of Columbia, Jeff Black is not a single-minded person. He knows the reason, so he naturally pulls the sinner out and whips the corpse once. He doesn't want to offend Qin Dong.

A [007] crisis made Jeff understand the influence of the Chinese director in front of him. He didn't want Columbia's films to be released in China in the future, so he had to be patient and laugh with him, or maybe the film [ 2012 Doomsday】may not even be in China.

This kid was scolded a few times, and even took hundreds of millions of dollars to file a lawsuit. Zhen Nima's temper is too explosive, and this kind of person is not easy to provoke.

This is the conclusion reached after discussions with Columbia's internal management.

"Sued the bitch Judy? Martin, is that true?"

Qin Dong didn't speak until he heard the words, but he still made sure to his manager that he couldn't just believe what others said.

"Well, Qin, Jeff didn't lie. I know about it. Columbia has indeed sued Judi Danqi for damages."

Martin nodded.

"Wow, Columbia made the right decision, President Jeff, nice to meet you."

When Qin Dong heard this, his face immediately changed, he smiled, and reached out to hold the other's hand.

"..."

Jeff Black laughed too.

In his heart, he felt that he understood Qin Dong better.

This person's temper is very changeable, and he is really narrow-minded.
