1314. I, the big director, make money
After hearing Chen Gelin's thoughts, Zhao Dongming was in a bad mood.
But he couldn't, yes, he just couldn't refuse directly.
Because Chen Gelin is the first big director to vote, although Chen Gelin's qualifications or grades are not as good as them compared to other big directors, he is also a big director.
To be honest, even if Zhao Dongming doesn’t understand the movie, even if he comes from the perspective of an ordinary person, he doesn’t like this movie at all.
Why?
Because this person who stepped on the horse had no idea whether this movie was going to be a big deal!
Don’t watch other people’s literary and artistic movies, as it seems to make people feel confused, but at least, a good literary and artistic movie will not be so outrageous.
Moreover, Chen Gelin's idea requires no low cost at all!
Zhao Dongming was a little embarrassed!
He wanted to buy horse bones with a fortune, but he knew it was a pit but still jumped in. This was not a small cost of millions. According to Chen Gelin's description, the cost of this movie would definitely not be too low.
Although the plot is bloody, there must be a lot of special effects for aliens or something.
However, if Zhao Dongming can become the ceo of Ali Media, he will naturally not be so cunning!
"So, Director Chen has thought about how much budget this movie requires?" Zhao Dongming asked.
He also wants to make his last effort. If the cost is not too high, he will be confident that he can convince the board of directors even if it is for a fortune to buy horse bones for a thousand dollars.
Or, if it is less than 20 million, he can make the decision directly.
Chen Gelin smiled and pointed to the information and said, "Mr. Zhao, I have been preparing for this movie for many years. In terms of budget costs, it is all in the subsequent information. Maybe there will be some differences when shooting the actual filming, but I think the difference will not be too big. You can use it as a reference!"
Zhao Dongming nodded, then opened and found the budget list that Chen Gelin said!
I have to say that Chen Gelin does have the style of Hollywood in this regard, and this budget list is very detailed.
Each item has annotation, why is this number, and how it is.
However, when Zhao Dongming saw the last number, he couldn't help but gasp.
I said to myself, good guy, good guy!
Because Chen Gelin's budget is so scary.
Two hundred million US dollars! Zhao Dongming won’t say anything about the final number.
But this is scary enough.
He didn't know why, but suddenly some people were inexplicably angry and some people wanted to laugh.
Why?
To be honest, even for Hollywood, even for such a project, it is very cautious.
At the same time, Hollywood has not many directors who can handle such high-cost big productions. Chen Gelin, why are you?
2 billion yuan in domestic box office?
Yes, Zhao Dongming admitted that Chen Gelin may indeed be a bit capable, but it costs 200 million US dollars, and it is such a script. To be honest, Zhao Dongming feels like he was fooled.
What is Chen Gelin who is Ali?
What is Zhao Dongming when he is?
Me, the big director, do you make money?
He couldn't help but think of some so-called literary and artistic film directors' routine of cheating money.
If you talk to him about money, he will talk to you about art, if you talk to him about art, he will ask you for money!
I am an artist, pay money!
Zhao Dongming didn't know what to say for a moment.
Looking at Chen Gelin who looked confident, Zhao Dongming sighed in his heart.
Then Zhao Dongming smiled and said, "Director Chen, to be honest, this budget is a bit high."
Chen Gelin nodded and said, "Yes, this budget is indeed a bit high, but if you want to make a good movie, you still have to spend this money. Science fiction movies and special effects shots are very important."
"Of course, I believe that after Mr. Zhao looked at my budget list, he would find that I, Chen Gelin, did not speak out casually. I have a place to go for every amount of funds. Moreover, I went to Mr. Zhao because I knew that China, Ali Media had the ability to invest in my project."
Zhao Dongming complained in his heart, what did you think of Ali as?
But he said, "Director Chen, of course, we Ali has such ability and strength. But I am frank, if it is a low-cost movie, I can directly pass it. However, for projects as big as Director Chen, even Ali Media and Alliance Film, they also need to go through the green light system. I hope Director Chen can understand this."
Chen Gelin nodded and said, "This is natural, but I believe this is not a problem."
Zhao Dongming didn’t understand at all that Chen Gelin’s confidence was brought, and it was simply honey confidence!
He can guarantee that if Chen Gelin's project really enters the green light system of the Alliance Film Company, he will not be able to pass the first round.
Because, this one who rides a horse costs 200 million US dollars, that's just such a thing?
There is another point that Zhao Dongming didn't say, it can be said that he didn't believe it at all. In addition to Wang Yifan, there is no other director in China who can really control such a high-cost movie.
This is true. Chen Hang tried it and Zhou Zhan tried it, but the result was all failed.
Especially Zhou Zhan, the "Five-level Realm" was a failure.
Even if he had bought a horse bone with a wealthy fortune, Zhao Dongming had completely given up.
Because, this Chen Gelin can be said to be completely expanded to the point of no end.
Of course, on the surface, Zhao Dongming was still very polite.
"Of course, I believe it too! Director Chen, I hope we can cooperate happily!" Zhao Dongming said with a smile.
"I hope so too!" Chen Gelin also said with a smile.
After seeing off Chen Gelin, the smile on Zhao Dongming's face disappeared immediately.
He rubbed his eyebrows!
"Xiaolin, who is next?" Zhao Dongming asked the assistant.
Of course, Chen Gelin is not just an option for Ali Media to throw such a big bait.
In fact, although there are not many great directors, there are still many excellent directors who have proven themselves in China to invest.
After all, that's a big Hollywood project.
It is an extremely rare opportunity for most directors in China.
“…”
In the next few days, Zhao Dongming contacted many directors to make an appointment.
But what made Zhao Dongming uneasy was that none of the top directors came to him.
However, many other directors from China came.
But in the end, nothing could satisfy Zhao Dongming.
Although these directors are also excellent directors in China, they have allowed them to control large productions with investment of over 100 million US dollars. To be honest, Zhao Dongming really doesn't have that confidence.
In fact, many directors are not saying that they are not strong enough, but the key is that they are not experienced enough!
You know, the investment of over 100 million US dollars in a movie is more than 600 million Chinese coins.
This kind of movie is a focal edge in China.
Most of these directors who come to the door have directed movies that cost 100 million or 200 million yuan.
It is quite a bit like letting them direct such a high-cost movie.
However, Zhao Dongming naturally would not let the other party come to the door for nothing.
In fact, for Ali Media and the Alliance Pictures, there is really no shortage of projects, but people are missing.
