Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 604 Pretty Face

  You must know that the total global box office of the first and second films alone is more than 800 million US dollars. Although there is inflation in the middle, there is now a third film.

The cost of   50 million, and the investment budget for each film is about 17 million. If the three films are folded in half, the total global box office of 500 million is not much.

  500 million total box office, how can you make 200 million US dollars.

   Of course, the premise is that CAA can help him make Home Alone well. If it fails to meet the standards of later generations, there is a high chance of losing money.

As for finding the original cast of later generations to shoot, Yang Chen said that his ability is limited and he can't do anything for the time being. Not to mention the nine-year distance in the middle, the main actor of a shot doesn't know where he is, so he said that the protagonist in Home Alone, the little boy, Whether he is born now is a question.

  The main actor, director and so on, he doesn't know who it is, he only knows one, that is, Home Alone was produced and distributed by 20th Century Fortune.

   However, knowing these is of no use. Whether it can be filmed well and whether it can make money can only be known after the film comes out.

   After reading the script, Michael Ovitz asked directly, "Mr. Yang Chen, is the investment amount of these three films the average score, or is it?"

  Yang Chen: "Find a director to budget it. If it's not enough, the upper limit is no more than 10 million. You ask Kelly to call me."

   "I don't care about the director and the actors, but it's best to use the same director and the same cast for the three films, and they will be released together on Christmas after the filming."

   "To be released together?" Michael Ovitz was stunned for a moment.

   "A week apart, let everyone watch the first part, and then want to watch the second and third parts, and let everyone watch the movie as a TV series."

   "Uh..." Michael Ovitz was dumbfounded.

   Chasing movies as TV series, this is probably only what the person in front of me thinks out, and if it is someone else, I really don’t have that strength.

  'rich, willful'

  Michael Ovitz kept two labels on Yang Chen again.

   Actually, I don't blame Yang Chen for doing this. The main reason is that the box office difference between the first and second films of Home Alone is a bit big, and he directly cut it in half.

  Tell me, who can endure this?

   Anyway, he is not bad for money. If the three films are successful, and they win the total box office of over one billion US dollars in one fell swoop, then he will really make a lot of money. The box office share alone is enough to make his pockets.

In the United States, movies are generally released for a long time. As long as the box office is not very bad, it is common for them to be released for two months. The three films of Home Alone are released together. There is no problem at all. The only problem is whether the theater chain is willing or not. support.

   After all, Christmas isn’t a place for everyone.

   Of course, if Home Alone can play to the level of later generations, then this problem will no longer exist.

   Actually, Yang Chen didn't think about entering Hollywood and acquiring two movie giants.

   But when he thinks that the Hollywood giants of later generations have a smooth surface, and the inside is miserable, haha, miserable, one pit after another, Yang Chen doesn't have much interest in Hollywood.

  Hollywood's water is deeper and turbid than any other industry. Step into it and keep your shoes wet.

  Especially after the emergence of blockbuster special effects, Hollywood movies will become a head-to-head beast of gold. If you win a movie, you will reach the pinnacle of your life in one fell swoop. If you lose, you will be heavily in debt and go bankrupt.

   There will be no Hollywood movie giants in later generations that are not burdened with excess debt, and the whole Hollywood lives relatively well, that is, companies like CAA.

   The risks are all borne by the investors. CAA is only responsible for working and collecting money. No matter how bad the box office of the movie is, it will not delay CAA's money.

   "Pfft..." Because of curiosity, Lin Qingxia watched for a while, and when she saw the exciting part, she finally couldn't help laughing.

   Seeing Yang Chen and Michael Ovitz looking over, Lin Qingxia couldn't help blushing, "I'm sorry"

   "Then what, Ah Chen, how did you come up with this kind of story? The thief in it is too stupid!" Lin Qingxia's beautiful eyes flickered, and when she laughed, it evoked slightly, making people unconsciously attracted to it.

  Yang Chen froze for a while, then recovered quickly, and immediately said proudly: "How is it? Is the script okay?"

  Although Yang Chen's smug look is very awkward, but I have to say that this is indeed a good script. From her own point of view, it is like this.

   Lin Qingxia reminded aloud: "Achen, this script can also be filmed by ATV."

   "Will you give me these three films? I have nothing to do next year. I want to try a transformation and see if I can do the behind-the-scenes work."

Yang Chen didn't speak, but smiled and nodded to Lin Qingxia, expressing his agreement. In the face of Goddess Lin who seldom asked him, Yang Chen naturally wouldn't refuse such a small request, no matter if Lin Qingxia was good or bad. , the result is not the most important, as long as the other party is happy.

   Seeing that Yang Chen promised herself, Lin Qingxia was so happy that she got carried away, and regardless of where she was, she took the initiative to send a kiss, ignoring Lan Mei and Michael Ovitz and others beside her.

   Seeing Yingying and Yanyan beside Yang Chen, the beauties compete with each other, Michael Ovitz envied them, and at the same time he didn't want to stay here as a light bulb anymore.

  Michael Ovitz: "Mr. Yang Chen, I'm going to print out two movie investment contracts. Excuse me."

After Michael Ovitz left, Yang Chen beckoned to Kelly, pointed to the seat where Michael Ovitz had sat, and motioned for her to sit down, and then said, "Kelly, I told you last time. thing, remember?"

   Hearing Yang Chen's words, Kelly suppressed her inner excitement and asked cautiously, "Is the boss talking about the CAA director?"

Yang Chen nodded and said, "When Michael Ovitz returns, I will tell him that you are my sole shareholder representative in the company. After you go to CAA, in addition to performing your directorship, try not to Interfering with CAA internal affairs..."

"I have a TV station in Hong Kong. In the future, the Asian media industry will be dominated by your boss and my family. Whether you can return to Hong Kong to work for me will depend on how much you can learn in CAA. "

   Kelly said seriously: "Boss, I will work hard."

Seeing her tensed face and serious look, Yang Chen couldn't help but smile and said: "Effort is a matter of time, and some things can't be successful just by working hard. If it really doesn't work, go back to Yu Chenghui and continue. Work."

   Anyway, Kelly has done her best these days. No matter where they go, Kelly can get everything ready as soon as possible.

   Moreover, the most rare thing is that the other party not only can speak Chinese, but also has a beautiful face.

  Cough, well, it's mainly the role of that pretty face.

  ——

   Thank you for the 500 rewards for the rest of your life 110 bosses again, thank you for your support, and toast to the boss???? . .
