Chapter 706 Have you ever seen a lion? (seeking subscription)
To be honest.

When Gu Miao saw Bald Qiang's wooden house for the first time, she actually felt a little envious of him in her heart.

This area is really big!

For one person, two or three rooms are enough.And the spacious yard outside made Gu Miao, who lived in the concrete forest and used to living in high-rise buildings, even more envious.

Living in a bustling city, although enjoying all kinds of conveniences in education, medical care, and work, it is difficult to have a small farmyard like Bald Qiang, which is big enough to park four or five cars.

Not to mention, the bald Qiang who lives here can not only have a signal, watch TV, but also deliver goods to his door, which is amazing...

Perhaps the only regret is that the wooden house is too old, and it is troublesome and far away to go to work.

But that's nothing.

If there is such a kind of forest cabin in reality that is connected to the Internet and can be delivered by express delivery, even if you spend a little more money to renovate it, it is actually very cost-effective.

of course!

The premise of all this is to be rich. If you are as poor as Bald Qiang, then living in this wooden house is probably not a pleasure, but a torture.

Setting up the scene is a bit time consuming.

Just as Gu Miao was leading the production team of "Bear Infested" to study and design the "details" around Bald Qiang's wooden house, Du Hao came back from North America.

He came back with good news!

MGM and Warner, which rank among the top eight giants in Hollywood, are both very interested in the project of the animated film "The Lion King".

However, Warner was obviously more greedy and wanted to get involved in the copyright of the project, so Du Hao politely rejected it.

MGM, on the other hand, was full of sincerity, not only agreeing to Wanbao's conditions, but also promising to handle the global distribution of the film.

"Then Mikomy!"

When Gu Miao heard MGM's name, she subconsciously felt a little dazed, and thought of the "Tom and Jerry" animation being produced by the North American branch.

What a fate!

After missing out on the animation "Tom and Jerry", they actually wanted to cooperate with Wanbao in "The Lion King", which sounds abstract.

The main goal of Gu Miao sending Du Hao to Hollywood is to win over another giant who has made a lot of "achievements" in the animation field.

But Du Hao told him.

That Hollywood animation giant is currently focusing more on the field of "live-action film and television", and some look down on Wanbao from Huaguo and disdain to cooperate with it.

"Look down on us?"

The corner of Gu Miao's mouth twitched. She didn't expect the other party to be so arrogant and conceited. She didn't even look down on the animation company ranked number one in Asia?

What kind of giant are you?

People look down on Wanbao, so naturally Gu Miao won't be a licking dog, putting her hot face on someone's cold ass, in fact, Mi Gaomei is also pretty good.

Although in the field of animation, the results are not very good, and the field of live-action film and television has gradually declined in the past two years, but the foundation is still very strong.

Cooperating with them, Gu Miao at least doesn't have to worry about the release of the movie, let alone worry that the partner is too strong and will eat up Wanbao.

Of course, there are far more than the MGM family participating in the "Lion King" project platter, there are a total of more than a dozen!
It's just that other capitals are not giants in terms of energy and grade, and cannot be compared with Wanbao and MGM.

So Gu Miao didn't care.

The total investment of the movie "The Lion King" project is estimated to be as high as 5500 million US dollars, which was originally not that much. After Michael Miga came in, he invested another sum of money in the project team.

That's all it adds up to.

This is only the pre-production budget, and does not include the publicity and promotion. When the movie is scheduled to be released soon, an exaggerated publicity budget will definitely have to be added.

"too exaggerated!"

"Do you really want me to be the director of a movie with such a large investment?" Du Hao asked a little nervously.

The total investment is tens of millions of dollars!The unit is US dollars, equivalent to hundreds of millions of RMB!
Du Hao said that he was not in a hurry or nervous when he was asked to take over such a big plate, it must be a lie, in fact he is in a panic right now.

"What are you afraid of?"

"Below your director, isn't there a foreign assistant director appointed by MGM?" Gu Miao raised her eyebrows, "If you don't dare to shoot, then I'll let him take over!"

"Don't!"

When Du Hao heard that his position was likely to be replaced by the assistant director appointed by MGM, he immediately gritted his teeth and said, "How can our production team let a foreign devil be the boss?"

This is a matter of face!

No matter whether he panics or not, or whether the pressure is great or not, he has to stand up.Otherwise, no one will be chosen. Is it true that the foreign assistant director will be replaced?

"Do not worry!"

Gu Miao patted Du Hao's shoulder with a smile, and comforted him: "I'm the producer, what are you afraid of if I'm watching you?"

Do it with confidence.

Regardless of whether it is good or not, this kind of thing must be done first in order to accumulate rich experience.

With the idea of ​​cultivating professional talents, from a long-term perspective, Gu Miao also felt that it would be okay to lose this investment.

The days to come are still long!
If you don't dare to take the first step, then what plan are you talking about going to sea?Simply curl up in a comfortable nest for a lifetime.

Du Hao's position as the director was actually a forced appointment. After all, Gu Miao needed complete control over the "Lion King" project.

Change to another director, such as a foreign assistant director recommended by MGM?Maybe the finished film will be better, but that will not benefit Wanbao Animation at all.

Use your own platform to cultivate talents for others, and you have to thank them for helping you when you are done. Is it cheap?

"Go find them first."

Gu Miao ordered: "Communicate with that foreigner assistant director more, he is a famous animation director in Hollywood, and he must be very capable."

"Okay, I see."

Du Hao nodded, and was about to get up to say goodbye when he suddenly heard Mr. Gu's question again.

"Speaking of which, how do you plan to shoot this movie, and where do you go to shoot it?"

"what??"

Du Hao was stunned, he didn't understand what Mr. Gu meant by asking this question.

Where else can animation be filmed?
If you don't do it in a company, why don't you go to Hollywood to do animation?This is too far!Once back and forth, the air ticket alone costs a lot of money!
"no……"

Gu Miao shook her head and explained: "That's not what I mean, I want you to go to Africa."

"Africa?!"

"Yes, Africa!"

Gu Miao grinned and said, "Have you ever seen a real lion? If you haven't, how could you possibly make a perfect animation of "The Lion King"?"

Really, a lion?

Is it panting and biting?
Du Hao was quite frightened. Just when he was about to say "no need", Gu Miao continued: "One or two may not be enough..."

"So I asked you to take people to Africa, and arrange enough lions for you, all kinds of lions, as well as giraffes, zebras and other animals, so you can get in touch with them closely!"

I thank you!
Du Hao's face turned pale instantly when he thought of the scene where he was running on the African grassland with a group of lions chasing him wildly behind him.

　Wangcai, the dog loved by everyone in the family, was drugged and limped. I don't know who is so vicious...
