The script Liu Qingshan came up with this time is called "Jumanji: Battle in the Jungle". In fact, this script is not "original". There was a work of the same name as early as ten years ago, starring the legendary Hollywood superstar Robin Williams.

He had some considerations in bringing it out. Now that Marvel movies are rampant, if he wants to get rid of other people's copyright restrictions, he must create a series of movies with his own copyright.

But now he doesn't have much appeal in the film market, so he can't come up with new types of films that have no audience base.

If you want to form your own series, the only shortcut is to remake it. It just so happens that the original version of "Jumanji" has no infringement, and the story is already very different from the original story.

So he wanted to borrow the title of the work ten years ago to develop a new generation of jungle series, so that he would not only have a certain audience base, but also develop his own movie series.

More importantly, the first "Battle in the Jungle" does not require him to bear the investment pressure, nor does he need to worry about box office issues. If it is a hit in the future, others will ask him to write scripts again, which is a sure thing.

Even if the movie ultimately fails, it has nothing to do with him. After all, he is just a script provider.

But he still seriously underestimated his influence. At the auction site, the script was sold for a sky-high price of US$5.13 million.

In the end, Tracy, who arrived at the scene, gave him the answer: "Your "The King's Speech" and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" have grossed over 100 million in global box office; although "Chicago" has not yet been filmed, it has already become a major Oscar winner."

Popular; "The Irishman", "Avatar" and there are rumors that new technologies have been developed, so your screenwriting talents in Europe and the United States have long been classified as gold medal screenwriters!"

Liu Qingshan was still shocked by the five million US dollars, "But you can't conclude that my script has such great commercial prospects, right? This is five million, which is enough to make a small-budget movie.

!”

What he said is also well-founded. It is true that future European and American film production costs will easily reach hundreds of millions, but in 2005, it was still very rare for millions to be spent solely on purchasing scripts.

Even for truly gold screenwriters, the scripts they produce usually only cost around 2 million, and only a few specially customized scripts will command a higher price.

Tracy smiled and said: "You can't think like that. This charity auction is a huge gimmick. Using the extra part for publicity is far more effective than other methods! Do you think these investors are stupid? This is all

After going through the team's market research, once in and out, they actually took a big advantage and saved more publicity expenses!"

Liu Qingshan suddenly realized: "It turns out there is so much knowledge in charity auctions!"

"Well, especially in Europe and the United States, self-proclaimed charity is a very common thing. Even ordinary people also value charity. Otherwise, why do you think those rich people can invite them? So today's script auction itself

, it will have a huge social sensational effect, which is equivalent to free publicity for future movies!"

"Then I feel much more comfortable. Perhaps because of this bid, I have a good price reference for future scripts!"

"That's it. Net worth is invisible and intangible, and there are no strict restrictions. The evaluation standards announced by the Directors Guild are conceptual in many cases, and other things that the screenwriter can really get are

It’s actually much lower, but you are an exception! With this public auction, your screenwriter’s value will only rise, not fall!”

"I won't take out too much in the future. The purpose is to use it for my own filming. As you know, my first directorial work will begin after returning to China!"

"I've heard of this, but I suggest you that this movie must first build on the Chinese audience. Only with directing experience and box office foundation in your own country can you gradually develop your career overseas.

go!"

"Aunt Tracy, thank you for your teachings, I have remembered them all!"

"Don't always tell me nice things, my aunt knows that you have your own ideas! By the way, the filming of "Chicago" is in progress, and many of the songs you came up with have been unanimously praised by Broadway, but they all

It’s strange why you can write so many purely Western songs that are obviously in line with local customs, common cognition and humanistic sophistication.”

"It's good to be recognized. In fact, it's not surprising. "Turandot" is not only watched by Western countries. "The Sound of Music" is also regarded as a classic in the Eastern world!"

"Those guys will like your explanation very much! How about, Broadway hopes to invite you to visit and even perform on stage through me. Are there any considerations in this regard?"

"Even if I had, I wouldn't dare, that's the truth! Broadway is an important place for dramas and musicals, synonymous with musicals. At my level, I wouldn't dare to perform on stage, but during the premiere of "Chicago", I had time

Maybe you can take a trip if you want."

"I suggest you go. Then I will introduce you to some old guys from the academy. Also, I will help you promote the Changyu Shaju you gave me!"

"Aunt Tracy, you haven't understood the concept of soju! Its brewing success depends on great chance, and many precious medicinal materials are indispensable! So I don't want my aunt to help me promote it, because it's

In the future, the output will be very low, so you can drink it yourself when you grow old, and others won’t be able to buy it even if they want to!”

After hearing this, Tracy Gerald began to really pay attention, "You mean it's not for business? Only we have the opportunity to drink it?"

"Just think of it as something that has long been lost in the world. In fact, Zhangyu Shaojiu does come from an ancient recipe a thousand years ago, and its medicinal effects are very magical. You will know it after drinking it.

My body has improved significantly!”

"That old guy Mike Wallace also became young because he drank your wine?"

"That's not true. I treated Uncle Mike myself. My Zhang Yu Shaojiu hadn't been brewed at that time, otherwise there would be no need to spend so much energy! You already have it and you don't need my treatment anymore.

So it is very precious, so don’t think about giving it to others, because you will lose it after one sip, and it will be difficult to get it again in the future!”

At this time, Tracy didn't know what she was thinking of. She didn't even care that the auction was still going on, and hurried to the place where the wine jar was placed.

Jin Xishan suppressed his laughter and whispered: "The old man is worried. He needs to find a place to hide quickly!"

"I didn't even give it to Bill Gates or Steve Jobs. She was just placed in an office where many people come and go. It's strange that I'm not nervous now that I understand!"

"Not much will be brought out this time. Do you still have enough to go home for the New Year?"

"Don't worry, I asked Shengyang to put it all in a small bottle and keep it alone!"

"Is it really impossible to brew wine in the future?"

"How can I? If I don't say this, some people won't pay attention to it. It will be very distressing to use it to win over people! By the way, this time when I go to the Li family's ancestral home, I will also spend a day to search for it in the deep mountains and old forests of Ulleungdo.

You can’t follow the medicinal materials, it’s very dangerous there!”

"I know, but you have to take Sheng Yang and Xiang Ling with you. There will be people to help you when you encounter a crisis!"

"I will take Sheng Yang, the Zhang brothers, Che Geng, and Pa Jaye with me. There won't be much danger. The two little guys also need a certain amount of bloody training!"

"They are still young. It would be too dangerous to meet a tiger or a lion!"

"There are no wild beasts that are too big to be seen on Ulleung Island, otherwise the news would have spread out long ago! Ordinary wild wolves and wild boars are no match for them, and they cannot coddle children when it comes to training. This will actually harm them!"

"Okay, okay, I understand! But is it okay if the girl group is also taken to the Li family's ancestral home? Will it cause too much trouble to others?"

"Didn't you listen to what Li Binghe said just now? Mu Tongxin and the others are now the new idols of the younger generations of the Li family. The children of the Li family are very willing to have a girl group come over!"

"Okay, let's just treat it as a vacation. It's so happy to be your artist. You can go around with the boss, eat and drink. Unlike me, after the first day of signing the contract, I have to go around to make announcements.

I have to visit several houses a day!"

"They will also have days like this in the future. I heard from Sister Jinghua that a TV station has already invited them to perform on stage around the Spring Festival."

Just as he was talking, Tracy rushed back, with a look of joy on her face: "Fortunately, you told me in advance, otherwise the jar of wine would have been used as a staff seat by someone sitting under your butt!"

Jin Xishan said cheerfully: "Where did my aunt hide it? Are you going to take it on a plane today?"

Tracey patted her head fondly: "You are making fun of me, an old woman, aren't you? Not to mention, I had this idea, but Adela rejected it. A ten-pound jar is not light!"

The one Liu Qingshan gave her was the smallest one. Only she and her husband drank it. Ten kilograms was enough for a year.

"Let the airport provide special packaging, otherwise it will be really unsafe if it is thrown around. I checked it here and applied for a separate warehouse!"

While he was giving Tracy the idea, the auction was coming to an end. Once it was over, it was lunch time, but none of the group would stay. It was still three or four hours' drive from the Li family's ancestral home, and they needed to leave as soon as possible.

.

Taking this opportunity, he bent down and ran to Gates' table and had a brief exchange.

Who would have thought that both Gates and Jobs laughed, and after explanation from their deskmate Li Changying, they found out that both of them actually agreed to his invitation and would go to the Li family's ancestral house to stay together for two days.

"You are all very busy people. It is said that you have to fly away quickly even if you don't even eat lunch. Why do you have time to be a guest this time?"

"I didn't know you were in Seoul before, and we are greedy for the fine wine collected by Mr. Li! Shanzi, you are a bit unreasonable, you actually hid such a good thing from us!"

This is Steve Jobs complaining.
