my time as a director

Thomas thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, how about Director Li giving us the right to adapt the great white shark?"

"Oh, how much does your company pay?" Li Qian was surprised. Hollywood bought the adaptation rights of Chinese-language movies. It was Infernal Affairs last time.

"How about 800 million US dollars?" Thomas gave a high price.

"5000!" Li Qian smiled.

Thomas almost choked, $5000 million scares me to death.

For 5000 million US dollars, it is enough to invite two 2000 million clubs, just to buy the adaptation rights, which is too outrageous.

"$1200 million."

"4000."

"1500."

"Your company can earn two 3500 million for the third film, continue to use the title and routine of Jaws, make three more films, and your company can earn 4000 million US dollars, [-] million!" Li Qian said very conscientiously.

"1800 million, no matter how high it is, I can't decide." Thomas shook his head.

Li Qian said with a smile, "There is an old saying in our country, each one has a bright future, so it is better to make a compromise, 3000 million."

Thomas struggled for a long time before he said with a look of embarrassment, "I need to report to the board of directors."

"Then I'll wait for news from Mr. Thomas."

Just like buying vegetables in the vegetable market, they sold the adaptation rights of Jaws for 3000 million US dollars like a joke.

Nearly 2 million yuan, if other companies know about it, they will be scared to death.

However, the price is not expensive at all, just $3000 million.

Jaws 3 can generate at least 7000 million profits. After the adaptation, it is no problem to replace white actors and release one movie every two years, and then just two bad money.

$3000 million for nothing, sometimes money is as simple as that.

In fact, it is not easy. Before Tengxun launched WeChat, Li Qian bought some stocks and made more than 1 million yuan without doing anything.

This trip to Hollywood was not bad. In the end, Li Qian wanted to mention the Oscars to Thomas. After all, going to the Olympics must be marketing, and Warner has experience in this area.

But I still didn't say it. After all, the higher-ups haven't given an answer yet. It would be bad if they were slapped in the face.

After finishing his work, Li Qian flew back to the capital overnight, and there was nothing to do in Milijian.

On the third day after returning to China, the higher-ups finally made a choice that Truman's World will represent Chinese-language films in the 2013 Oscar Film Festival.

It's not too early, and there is still more than a week in September. In order to meet the entry requirements, Truman's World officially started screening in a movie theater with only 23 seats in the suburbs of Jiangning, where it was filmed.

There is no publicity, just like this, the cinema opens early, and it is shown at 7 o'clock every morning, and even the tickets are bought in advance.

Ordinary audiences had no idea that it would be screened, and they couldn't see it on the ticketing platform. They could only buy it on the spot, and not a single ticket was revealed.

The "audience" was specially arranged to go in, and the ordinary audience didn't even know there was such a thing.

However, the requirement for commercial screening is here, and it is impossible to hide it. It is called an internal secret screening, not a regular commercial screening, and must be made public.

Even if it is a suburban movie theater, where there is a movie theater, it will not be too remote, and some audiences will go to see it. Some attentive audiences will see the information about Truman's World screening from the ticket information scrolling on the big screen of the movie theater on the first day.

However, when I bought the tickets, I was told that a total of more than 150 tickets for the seven games in the next week had already been sold out.

As soon as this news came out, it would be a blast. The movie I had been looking forward to for a few months, I thought it would be released in a few months, but suddenly it was ordered. The key is that I can't buy tickets!

Chapter 399 The present and the future belong to Li Qian

"Truman's World begins its bid for the Olympics, and will represent Chinese-language films to compete for the 2012 Oscars. This is the first time for a new generation of directors to compete for the Olympics!"

"The Truman World will represent the mainland to participate in next year's Oscar competition for the best foreign language film. In order to cooperate with the "Olympic bid", a one-week screening has begun in Jiangning on the 24th. The reporter of this newspaper has confirmed this to the International Exchange Office of the Film Bureau. .”

"The fifth generation of directors has failed to compete in the Olympics for 20 years, and the new generation of directors has officially taken over the banner of the Olympics. Can Li Qian break the curse of the mainland film Oscar?"

"The Truman Show is mysteriously screened. More than 20 tickets in the screening hall with more than 150 people are all sold out. Although it has been screened for two days, the information about the movie is still only a few words. , covered with a veil of mystery."

"The annual trip to the Olympics has officially started with the screening of Truman's Secret World. Can the best domestic commercial director and talented director Li Qian represent mainland movies and win the Oscar!"

The first day of screenings began on September 9, and this move was immediately noticed by the media.

Li Qian has not disclosed the information of the movie before, but this time the only explanation for the screening is Chong Ao!

The Film Bureau did not keep it secret either, and the International Office confirmed the matter in an interview with reporters.

Ever since, Truman's world rushed to Austria, and suddenly rushed to the hot search.

However, it has been two days since the screening, and what the audience is most concerned about is what kind of story the movie tells, and they still have no way of knowing.

Originally, everyone thought that since the show was ordered, even if they couldn't buy tickets, there were other viewers who went to see the movie, and they would always know.

But two days have passed, and some viewers who have watched the screening have spoken out.

but

"Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to go to the screening of Truman's World. Although it was only in a small hall with a small screen, the movie really shocked me. It was a shock from the bottom of my heart and soul. I never thought about it. Li Qian is worthy of the name of a genius director if he can still shoot like this, The Truman World has already booked the best movie of the year, and it can even compete for the best movie in Chinese film history!"

This evaluation comes from a well-known film critic with a good reputation on Weibo.

"After watching the movie, when I walked out of the cinema, I already doubted life. Looking at the blue sky and white clouds above my head, I fell into self-denial, and I haven't recovered until now."

"Li Qian is amazing, this movie is too scary, I would like to advise everyone, audiences with weaker minds should not watch it so early, you will doubt life, and then watch other people's spoilers, it will not be so uncomfortable psychologically .”

Although more than 150 movie tickets were taken away in advance, Li Qian also distributed the tickets.

Except for distribution in Jiangning City, employees of the ground network go to punch a card every day, which accounts for two-thirds, and the other 50 are distributed to reporters and film critics.

They are all acquaintances, and they are trustworthy. Although these two professions have no moral integrity, no matter what group they are in, there will always be some people with a bottom line. After all, there are good people even in the underworld.

The evaluations of the movie on the Internet are basically from the fifty reporters and film critics, but they did not disclose any details of the movie, and they are all praises.

Day after day has passed, and it has been four days since the screening, but still haven't seen any useful information, and the fans are dying of anxiety.

"Li Qian is playing with a hammer. The film is finished, so it's time to release it. The National Day holiday is such a good opportunity. If I don't go on a trip, I will go to see the world of Truman!"

"I found that Li Qian's kung fu of tantalizing people has already reached perfection. It started from the opening press conference, time and time again, every time, but he just kept on doing something!"

"It's no wonder that a horror movie like Jaws that grabs people can be made. Have you noticed that this movie has some news again and again, just like Jaws that every time a shark appears, I suspect that Li Qian is on purpose!"

"It's the same as some movies in the island country. It's played by the same teacher, but there are a few well-made ones, which can be called classics and make people's hearts itch. Even if they are coded, they are more attractive than those without. Worth treasuring."

"Li Qian is a scumbag, he will leave us alone after flirting!"
