Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

With this idea in mind, Reiter asked the question directly:

"Kevin, I have two problems, and if I can solve them, I am willing to let MGM invest 20 million dollars."

As the president of MGM, his authority is still very large in day-to-day times, greater than Kevin, a major shareholder.

Of course, there are rights, and naturally there are responsibilities.

If the investment loses money, he is also responsible.

"First, this Hong Kong director has never directed this investment masterpiece, are you sure he is capable enough to direct this film?"

"Second, judging from the current Sino-US situation, are you sure that the mainland will agree to go to the mainland to make a movie?"

Kevin smiled and explained one by one:

"Shushan, I will arrange my assistant Ai Li to be the producer, if there is a specific problem, she will communicate with me, and at the same time, I will arrange an experienced assistant director to assist Tsui Hark, the director of Shushan."

"Don't worry about that."

"I can be sure that he is a spiritual director."

The director's ability is divided into technical, that is, the use of various Hollywood lenses and equipment.

The other is called spirituality.

This kind of thing, there is no way to tell the difference, but everyone can feel it.

For example, a new director, when his lens shoots, there will often be a lot of flaws, but the audience can find that his lens language is very good.

The shots he shoots always touch the hearts of the audience.

This kind of thing can be called talent or spirituality.

And Tsui Hark is undoubtedly a talented director, here, Kevin has to repeat the old thing.

A certain Kai director is obviously talented.

He just lacks one, good producer.

The film industry of the mainland and Hollywood, the difference is here.

The mainland is a director-centric system, the entire crew revolves around the director, and the producer is a tool man.

Hollywood, on the other hand, is a producer-centric producer, and the producer has the most power in a crew.

This leads to the fact that in the mainland, once the director goes astray, no one can correct him.

But Hollywood, as long as it is not those top directors, other times, the producer can even directly change the director together.

"As for the second point, don't worry, I have news that in a few days, there will be a big change in policy, and Sino-US relations will enter a friendly period."

"Once the policy changes, for the sake of friendship between the two sides, these are not problems."

In addition to promoting Chinese culture and making a little money himself, Kevin can also be regarded as giving back to the motherland.

He had the confidence to bring a wave of travel.

At that time, how much money the mainland can make with this wind depends on their ability.

Ray nodded, and Kevin gave an explanation that he could accept.

At present, Kevin's undefeated golden body has not been shattered for this reason.

Since it was a project he recommended, MGM was willing to take the risk and try it.

"Well, MGM is willing to invest $20 million, but where will the remaining $20 million be raised?"

Kevin rubbed his temples and came up with an idea.

"You say, how about creating a fund?"

Listening to Kevin's words, Reiter suddenly smiled bitterly.

"We at MGM have such a fund, but because MGM has not produced overly profitable films for a long time, there is not much money in the film fund."

"But because of you, the situation has been much better this year."

"If it's a film you're officially involved in, whether it's a producer or a director, I'm sure raising $20 million will be simple."

"However, if only Sunrise Movies and MGM invested, it would not be too attractive."

LTECH analyzed it thoroughly.

Kevin suddenly fell into thought.

After a moment, he raised his head:

"In this way, you help me release the wind, and I will see if any investors take the initiative to come to the door."

Ray nodded, and he was supposed to do this.

After dealing with this matter, Kevin left here directly and went back to continue to deal with the special effects shots of The Matrix.

......

On the other side, the premiere is going on normally.

As a sequel to a blockbuster movie, the focus of publicity has changed.

You don't need to try to create word of mouth, just let the Americans know that Pirates of the Caribbean 2 is released.

Five million dollars, turned into posters and overwhelming advertising.

And the effect is also obvious.

There are quite a few families who plan to buy tickets to see it immediately after the premiere.

The premiere of Tornadostorm, which premiered at the same time as Pirates of the Caribbean 2, was very deserted.

Looking at the sparse media, Robinov couldn't help but feel melancholy.

Although he knew that it was not as good as Pirates of the Caribbean 2, he did not expect the premiere to be so deserted.

This scene instantly made his confidence collapse.

But at this point, there is nothing to do.

I can only hope that the word of mouth of the tornado storm will break out, thus breaking through the suppression of Pirates of the Caribbean.

-------------------------------------

as a big fan of Steve Kevin, film critic Vic lives very well in the critic circle by bragging about any movie associated with Steve Kevin and attacking other movies.

Although his behavior was abused by other film critics in various newspapers.

And also won a film critic disgrace title.

But Vic was relieved.

Although he does not understand the truth that black traffic is also traffic, the money that the newspaper pays him is the most real.

If there is money to earn, others will scold it.

He occasionally appeared in the newspaper, published articles, and started a scolding war with others.

I have to say that the audience is really happy with this kind of scolding.

It's human nature to watch lively.

The price given by the newspaper is really not low.

Relying on this money, their family now does not know how moisturized, even her wife has lost a lot of weight.

It has to be said that in the United States, thinness is a reflection of value.

After all, people with poor family conditions do not have the right to choose food at all.

Those greasy and high-calorie fried chicken, pizza, and cola are their regular recipes.

Coming to the theater, Vic sat down peacefully and began to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 2, followed by his wife and two children.

The film soon began to show.

Looking at the screen, maintaining the same shots as the first one, Vic knew that these two cutting-edge directors still inherited Steve Kevin's skills.

As for the story, Vic didn't need to look at it to know what it was.

Large-scale commercial films in the United States are actually very similar.

The audience may just be Tu Yile, but as a film critic and a famous film critic, his appreciation ability is still there.

If it is an ordinary film critic, it is often critical of this kind of film.

But of course, Vic is not an ordinary film critic, he is here to find merits, and it makes sense to boast, this is his principle.
