sluggish.
dumbfounded.
Shock.
The expressions on the faces of all netizens who saw this announcement became extremely exciting.
Everyone just stared at the content of the announcement, and it seemed that thunder was exploding in their minds.
at last.
Screams resounded in countless places around the world, piercing the silence.
"God!"
"What do you mean?"
"Lin Xuan didn't run away?"
"My God, it's only been a few days since Lin Xuan made a bet with all the directors in Hollywood, right? His script has already been written? Has the project even been approved?"
"..."
Blasted!
Netizens who were still discussing Lin Xuan's running away just now were all blown up, especially when media reporters saw the announcement issued by Second World, everyone's hearts were in a state of trembling. How could this be?Instead of running away, Lin Xuan even wrote the script at an unprecedented speed, and has already approved the film project.
To everyone, this news was a shock.
However soon.
Someone shouted: "Big brothers and sisters, Lin Xuan's film project approval is not the point at all!"
Yes!
That's not the point at all.
Because more people are attracted by the other items in the movie, everyone has an unrealistic illusion when they look at these lines:
Movie Genre: Romance.
Film investment: 2.6 million US dollars.
special.
Almost every netizen felt absurd in their hearts.
Someone had a face full of disbelief: "A romance movie? The movie that Lin Xuan used to compete with more than [-] top directors in the world is actually a romance movie? Am I really not mistaken?"
Another person marveled: "When Lin Xuan made his first Hollywood movie, he chose mecha science fiction. At that time, I thought he was too unconventional. But compared to this romance film, Lin Xuan's choice at that time was really It’s so normal. To be honest, I never dreamed that Lin Xuan would actually choose a romance movie. Who gave him the courage to choose this genre? Of course, maybe the romance movie wasn’t enough to shock me, it really made me feel absurd What is the investment of this movie. If I read correctly, it is not 260 million, nor 2600 million, but 2.6 million. Oh God, 2.6 million dollars for a romance movie? May I ask you Lin Xuan Want to invite God to fall in love?"
absurd.
It's ridiculous.
Many people even feel that the Second World's announcement is simply to deceive people.
Especially all the directors in Hollywood have ridiculous faces.
Gustav laughed dumbfounded: "Lin Xuan wants to use a romance movie to confront us?"
Gerald spread his hands: "To be honest, I can't figure out what Lin Xuan is thinking. I can't even understand whether the second world's announcement is true or not.
If it is true, what kind of psychology does Lin Xuan have to make a love movie to bet against us?What kind of love movie can spend 2.6 million US dollars in investment?It should be noted that Lin Xuan's last "Transformers" was basically all cool special effects screens, and it only cost 2 million US dollars.
If it was fake, why did Lin Xuan make such an announcement?What is the point of him doing this?Is he just out to disgust us?And we can find out that his movie has indeed been approved successfully. "
No one can figure it out.
Everyone was at a loss.
It is not clear what the hell Lin Xuan is doing.
But what is certain is that Lin Xuan did not run away, he is indeed going to make a movie.
then.
The directors warmed up again.
"Very well, since Lin Xuan didn't run away, just wait."
"Let Lin Xuan know what a top director is."
"Kill him to death!"
"Oh, he really wants to fight us? That's what he wants."
"You really laughed your ass out of your teeth, and confront us with a romance movie?"
"He's probably just trying to be different."
Of course, there are also some steady directors who frown: "Lin Xuan is a bit strange. Before, all of us in Hollywood were rushing to the street on mech sci-fi, but he made "Transformers" and pioneered mecha sci-fi. He has opened up a brand new path. Therefore, this person cannot be viewed from the eyes of ordinary people, and it is not necessarily true that romance films can reach new heights in his hands."
Gustav also nodded: "That's right, Lin Xuan is not a fool. Since he wants to make a romance movie with such a big fanfare, maybe this romance movie is different from other movies."
There are also directors who disagree: "Maybe Lin Xuan is really special, but how good can a romance film be? How about I give him [-] million, [-] million or even [-] billion box office? Before Lin Xuan "Transformers" was able to explode at the box office because the base of sci-fi fans is already huge, so as long as he finds the right direction, the box office will of course be good. But romance films don't have a fan base, how can he get box office? Movies have always been unfavored by the Oscar judges, except for a better reputation from fans, they basically don’t get box office and honors.”
What this person said also made sense.
Looking at the top few hundred of the global movie box office list, there is no shadow of romance movies, and it can be seen that this type of movie does not attract much box office.The real box office overlord will always be blockbusters such as science fiction, fantasy, and action.
There are different opinions.
Some people are cautious.
Some people showed disdain in their eyes.
Of course, the vast majority of directors didn't care, and let Lin Xuan make troubles.
No matter how capable Lin Xuan is, he can't turn the world around.
……
China.
Netizens are all happy.
"Romance movies? Damn it!"
"Invest 2.6 million? Damn!"
"Then this kind of movie competes with a big Hollywood director? Damn it!"
"Fuck! F*ck! F*ck!"
"Hahaha, it's still Brother Xuan that I know well."
"Brother Xuan is as coquettish as ever."
"Who the hell said Brother Xuan escaped?"
"That's right, the last thing Lin Xuan can do is run away."
"Sure enough... Sure enough, I didn't guess Lin Xuan's intention."
"Laughing to death, those European and American media and netizens were probably dumbfounded when they saw that Brother Xuan wanted to make a romance film. Only our fans know that this is in line with Brother Xuan's operation. If Brother Xuan casually shoots an ordinary Hollywood blockbuster , I'm going to be surprised."
"Brother Xuan, use romance movies to defeat those arrogant Hollywood directors."
"I predict: [-] billion at the box office!"
"..."
At this moment, someone asked: "Huh? Strange, since Brother Xuan didn't run away. At this critical moment, why didn't he stay in Hollywood, but returned to China?"
Soon, someone found out the news: Lin Xuan's Hollywood blockbuster will all be shot in China!At that time, all European and American actors will come to China.
Because of this, Lin Xuan returned to China.
He came back not to escape, but to shoot a movie!
There was another exclamation.
It is unprecedented for a Hollywood blockbuster to be filmed in China.
Huaxia netizens are excited again.
"Brother Xuan is amazing."
"Brother Xuan is giving us Huaxia face."
"Excited, so excited."
"Can you make Hollywood blockbusters in China?"
"Brother Xuan is awesome."
"..."
Seeing the comments of Huaxia netizens, the foreign media slandered in their hearts: a bunch of idiot fans.
But they also had to admire Lin Xuan's prestige in China.Even though Lin Xuan chose such an unreliable movie, fans still supported him.
As for Lin Xuan's decision to make a movie in China, many insiders of course scoffed at it.
It's not that Hollywood movies can't be shot in China, and even before that, several blockbuster Hollywood movies have been filmed in China, but it's just for shooting.The real big scenes had to be shot in North America.Otherwise, the crew, logistics, resources, equipment, etc. will not be able to keep up.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Lin Xuan's operation is completely incomprehensible.
Even internationally, someone launched a vote.
[Lin Xuan's film project has been approved, who do you think will win in this duel? 】
"It's useless to think about it? The big Hollywood directors will definitely win."
"There is no comparison at all."
"Even if Lin Xuan comes up with another groundbreaking movie comparable to "Transformers", he can't win."
"Yes, no matter how high the box office of his movie is, it is doomed to lose. After all, this time the comparison is not only box office, but also word of mouth, and Oscar..."
"There's no need to vote at all."
"Haha, it's just a joke."
Soon, the voting results will be announced.
96% chose a Hollywood director to win.
4% of the people chose Lin Xuan to win.
It is really a surprise that 4% of the people think that Lin Xuan can win.
Probably some of Lin Xuan's diehard fans.
Of course, it is also possible that netizens are just joking.
……
After the initial shock, many people in the industry finally focused their attention on Lin Xuan's movie "Titanic".
Through the name of the movie, everyone easily found the ship related to the movie, and at the same time knew the huge shipwreck more than a hundred years ago.
"Lin Xuan wants to make such a movie?"
"A real historical event?"
"interesting."
"But the limitations are also great."
"Yes, there is no room for play."
Especially Hollywood directors frowned.
Because many directors have filmed this kind of shipwreck movie before, but basically they didn't get much response.Because such a movie has too little room to operate, most of the shots can only be confined to one ship, which makes the movie less interesting and anticipating.
monotonous.
dull.
Relatively uninteresting romance plot...etc.
Because of this, the box office of such movies has a ceiling, maybe not too low, but definitely not too high.
……
for outside voices.
Ever since Second World announced the establishment of the "Titanic" project, Lin Xuan never paid attention to it.
On the first day, an emergency meeting of the company's top management was called.
The next day, I rushed to Lu Province with the company's top management to negotiate and formally sign the filming location.
On the third day, field trips.
On the fourth day, the venue was settled.
On the fifth day, Lin Xuan called the engineering team in and started a vigorous site rectification.
On the tenth day, when the site was slightly completed, several planes transported a large logistics crew from North America to start the construction of the film and television site.
Next, apart from the basic contact with relatives, friends, and important company matters, Lin Xuan cut off almost all external contacts, and began to sink into the preliminary construction of "Titanic".
The shooting process of "Titanic" was not very troublesome for Lin Xuan. The most troublesome thing was the construction of the shooting site and the building of the hull model.This process, without more than half a year to a year, is not enough at all.Moreover, Lin Xuan must keep an eye on the progress of the project all the time, without any slack.
In the previous life, due to funding problems, Cameron only built half of the ship, and the other half was fused with the other half after a later stage.
But this time, Lin Xuan, who is rich and powerful, is going to build the entire ship.In this way, the pictures taken at that time will be more shocking and magnificent.
rich!
capricious!
This can be regarded as the project that Lin Xuan has worked on for the longest time and with the largest investment since his debut. Only when he really invested in the pre-production of the film did he feel how much preparatory work the film requires, even if it is "Changjin Lake" " is not worth mentioning in front of it.This is still the feeling when he has a clear memory and copied his predecessors.If he didn't have these memories and started everything from scratch, he couldn't imagine how cumbersome the preliminary work would be.
The more this is the case, the more he can appreciate the greatness of Cameron.
"Maybe, only a director like Cameron can make "Titanic"?"
Lin Xuan admired in his heart.
It was so difficult for him to shoot according to his memory. It is really impossible to imagine how Cameron managed such a huge movie back then.
……
time flies.
One month.
two months.
Three months.
Outside, the films of many Hollywood directors have finally opened their premieres.
After all, among the thirty-three directors, the works of major Hollywood directors who are dueling with Lin Xuan are released basically every month, and they don't stop every month.
The international film world is full of excitement.
The first Hollywood director to confront Lin Xuan was Joseph.
One of Hollywood's legendary directors!
The director directed the futuristic sci-fi film "Interstellar Voyage" eight years ago, which achieved a box office of 8.8 million US dollars and was sought after by a large number of sci-fi fans.This time he brought "Star Trek 2", which is definitely a surprise for science fiction fans.
The day the movie was released.
Countless theaters around the world are buzzing.
"Ahhh, it's so enjoyable."
"The premiere of Joseph's movie is on."
"I remember that his movie was supposed to be released at the end of the year, but it turned out to be a few months ahead of schedule."
"It seems that it's all due to Lin Xuan's bet. Thanks to Lin Xuan, we have such a blessing."
"Hurry up and buy tickets. It's Star Trek 2. I've been looking forward to it for several years."
"my favourite."
"Must support."
Soon, the box office for the premiere came out.
Excluding China's box office, the first-day box office of "Star Trek 2" was as high as 5128 million US dollars!
A dazzling achievement!
Countless movie fans and media reporters exclaimed when they saw this achievement.
The box office on the first day was more than [-] million, which means that the final box office of the movie has a high probability of breaking through one billion US dollars.
Everyone was stunned.
"My God, the box office of the first movie was so high?"
"Proper billion club."
"It's so beautiful, it's not surprising that it has a box office of one billion."
"Lin Xuan is going to be dumbfounded, the first director is so powerful."
"The box office of "Transformers" was only around [-] million at the time, right? In other words, it is only Joseph who is the first person, and it is possible to put Lin Xuan on the ground."
"terrible."
As a result, before "Star Voyage 2" was released.
The second big Hollywood director has arrived with his movie.
This person is none other than Gustav!
Another legendary Hollywood director!
This time, Gustav's movie is called "The Lone Ranger 3", which is also a series of movies.In the past fifteen years, "The Lone Ranger" and "The Lone Ranger 2" directed by Gustav have achieved outstanding results of 8.5 million US dollars and 11 billion US dollars respectively in the world. This time he brought "The Lone Ranger 3" Come, obviously full of confidence.
really.
After "The Lone Ranger 3" was released, it grossed $6725 billion at the global box office on the first day.
Shocked the world!
"Oh my God!"
"The single-day box office is nearly [-] million?"
"Scary!"
Especially in the following days, the box office trend of "The Lone Ranger 3" is hardly in a sluggish state, but has been firmly dominating the global box office list all the way.
There are fans in the industry, and there is a high probability that the final box office of this movie will exceed 12 billion US dollars!
This is 12 billion US dollars excluding China's box office!
If China's box office is included... well, forget it, now that Chinese netizens are actively boycotting Hollywood movies, "The Lone Ranger 3" has simply canceled its release plan in China, so there is no data for the time being.
Joseph.
Gustav.
Two legendary directors completely started this shocking game.
half a month later.
The third legendary director stood up: Gerald!
Since Gerald's films have never competed much for the box office, "The Lone Ranger 3" is still on the air worldwide for a few days, but he still opened the premiere of his film.
The movie is called "My Lonely Life". This movie thoroughly dissects human nature, but after the first day of premiere, the movie's box office on the first day was fixed at 1491 million US dollars.
Seeing this data, many Huaxia netizens finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"The box office on the first day was only over [-] million?"
"This is not threatening."
"Brother Xuan can ignore this person."
"The box office of the first two Hollywood directors scared me to death."
But soon, someone shouted: "Brothers, don't be too happy, don't you read the news carefully? The comparison between Gerald and Brother Xuan is not the box office, but word of mouth! Word of mouth!"
Everyone was stunned.
Many netizens who were able to overcome the wall were shocked and quickly opened Rotten Tomatoes.Then everyone was shocked to find that, just half a day after its release, the word-of-mouth rating of "My Lonely Life" on Rotten Tomatoes reached 9.3 points!
Rating up to 9.3 points!
When Lin Xuan's "Transformers" was released, the score on Rotten Tomatoes was 8.5 points.Although for a commercial film, 8.5 points is already extremely remarkable.
But now, "My Lonely Life" is as high as 9.3 points!
Huaxia netizens fell silent.
Everyone lost their voices.
On the contrary, European and American movie fans are very excited.
"Gerald is amazing!"
"Oh my god, a 9.3 rating?"
"Those with over nine points are all classics, and Gerald is worthy of being a legendary director."
"With such a high score, it is estimated that it can hit an Oscar!"
Generally speaking, a movie with a high reputation has the possibility of hitting the Oscars. Even if it doesn't win the hearts of the Oscar judges, it is still no problem to win one or two finalists.
now.
Somewhere in North America, Gerald was secretly surprised when he saw the data of the movie.For the film's score of 9.3 points, he was not surprised. What really surprised him was the box office: the box office on the first day was nearly 3 million!This means that the final box office of this movie has a high probability of reaching [-] million US dollars.And when he made this movie, he didn't care about the box office at all, he just went for word of mouth, an in-depth movie specially shot to hit the Cannes and Berlin Film Awards.
In his original guess, the highest box office of this movie is about [-] million US dollars, or even tens of millions.
Unexpectedly, the current box office has greatly exceeded his expectations.
Hollywood directors.
"How come Gerald's movie box office is so high?"
"That's right, I thought the box office on the first day was at most five million."
"This is a literary film."
"My heart trembled because of the high box office."
Gerald: "I was surprised too."
Soon, Gustav said: "I think this matter may have something to do with Lin Xuan."
Everyone stayed.
Is it related to Lin Xuan?
The box office is high, why is it related to Lin Xuan?
Gustav said: "The box office of my movie was also higher than I expected. Originally, in my estimation, the box office on the first day was at most just over 6700 million US dollars, but in the end it was as high as [-] million US dollars. Many countries and the local premiere, the box office even broke the local record. I also asked Joseph, his movie box office is also surprisingly good. If only one person has such a situation, I can still think it is an accident, but the few of us The box office all exploded unexpectedly, which means that because our bet with Lin Xuan is too popular in the world, many people who would not have watched our movies have also attracted them."
When everyone heard it, they suddenly realized.
"Haha, it's really possible."
"So betting with Lin Xuan has this benefit?"
"Lin Xuan couldn't win in the first place, so he will be even more desperate."
"Lin Xuan probably never dreamed that he indirectly made wedding dresses for us."
"Lin Xuan is making things worse."
"I feel a little sorry for him."
the next day.
One legendary director after another stood up.
Or a new movie comes out.
Or announce plans for a new movie.
One.
two.
ten.
twenty.
In the past few decades, it has been difficult for movie fans to see scenes of collective explosions of major Hollywood directors.In the past, it was difficult for these top directors to produce a movie in five or ten years.But now, because of Lin Xuan's bet, many directors have released and filmed the originally planned movies in advance.
The whole of Hollywood set off a movie feast.
In this way, movie fans are feasting their eyes.
Even the world's film industry can't help but sigh, this is an unprecedented scene.
"Oh my god, Elton's movie box office exploded again?"
"Shocked, isn't it? Jia Aisi's new movie has a reputation of 9.4 points."
"Another blockbuster movie?"
"This movie is definitely the strongest Oscar contender."
"Ahhh! Pete actually announced that he will be filming "Death Plan 3"."
"What? Ferdinand finally filmed "The Devil 3"? I've been waiting for five years."
"These big Hollywood directors are all crazy?"
Exclamations came and went.
Even the media began to become numb after seeing each big news.
Kill crazy.
They all went crazy.
Many people were dumbfounded when they saw it. These big directors in Hollywood didn't give Lin Xuan a chance at all.
Originally they were the top directors, but now everyone's performance broke out again, Lin Xuan was scared to death.
……
China.
After nearly half a year of large-scale construction in the early stage, hundreds of millions of dollars have been invested.A beach more than [-] kilometers south of Qingdao has been transformed by Lin Xuan into a super-large film shooting base.
"Finally done."
Looking at the deserted beach in front of him turned into a modern film base, Lin Xuan felt a strong sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Everything is ready.
Then the filming will officially start.
However, before filming, Lin Xuan decided to relax with the logistics team who had been busy here for several months. Most of the staff here are from North America.It just so happened that the place where they worked was not very far from Mount Tai. After some discussion, Lin Xuan decided to take them to visit Mount Tai, the first of China's Five Sacred Mountains.
First, it can make them relax and start more intense work in the future.Second, it can also let them feel the great rivers and mountains of China.
A few days later, everyone went straight to Mount Tai.
What Lin Xuan didn't expect was that because he disappeared for several months, countless media reporters went crazy looking for him.
therefore.
When he appeared on Mount Tai, he immediately alarmed the media reporters.
At least dozens of reporters rushed to Mount Tai with dozens of kilograms of photographic equipment in desperation, preparing to interview Lin Xuan.
then.
When Lin Xuan climbed to the top of Mount Tai, he saw a group of reporters following him, and he was stunned: "You guys are working too hard? Are you following to the top of Mount Tai?"
The reporters got excited, and countless questions began to pop up.
"Brother Xuan, Joseph's movie box office exploded, what do you think?"
"Gustav's new movie has a box office of 12.8 billion. Are you under any pressure?"
"Jia Aisi's new movie has a word-of-mouth rating of 9.4 points. How can you surpass him?"
"Ferdinand is preparing to shoot "Demon King 3". According to industry analysis, its box office may reach 15 billion. What do you do?"
"Are you stressed?"
"Can you win?"
"What should I do if I lose?"
"..."
Hearing these reporters' questions, Lin Xuan finally understood why the reporters were in such a hurry.In the past few months, in order not to affect his work, he blocked almost all news from the international entertainment industry.Until today, he didn't know that so many major events had happened internationally in the past few months.
Lin Xuan was stunned.
There was a storm in my heart.
isn't it?
Those big Hollywood directors who are fighting against him, have their box office and word-of-mouth hit new highs?
Even several directors started the shooting of the big movie series in advance?
The global film boom?
Is it all because of him alone?
Beside, several staff members were also dumbfounded.
"My God, why is the box office so high?"
"Then how do we compare?"
"The highest box office is already 12 billion?"
"Oh my god, are we still going to fuck up in this duel?"
"Ruined."
"How to do?"
Originally, these big Hollywood directors were scary enough, and coupled with the explosion of the other party, no matter how powerful Lin Xuan was, it was not enough to watch.
Everyone looked ugly.
Even the good mood to play is gone.
Looking at the burning eyes of the reporters and the discouragement of the staff, Lin Xuan suddenly showed a bright smile on his face, and he said, "I won't answer these questions one by one. I just came to climb Mount Tai today. , how about I read a poem here?"
What?
Read poetry?
The reporters were bewildered.
They worked so hard to follow Lin Xuan up Mount Tai just for the interview in front of them.In the end, Lin Xuan didn't answer their questions, but went to recite poems. What does it mean?
Especially the staff next to him almost vomited blood: Brother, what time is it, are you still in the mood to recite poetry?
However, Lin Xuan didn't look at them. He stood on the top of the five mountains, facing the cold wind blowing from the top of the mountain, overlooking the cloud-shrouded scenery at his feet. "Wang Yue"!"
Then, his voice rolled and resounded in all directions:
"How about Dai Zongfu? Qi Lu Qingwei is now.
Chong Shenxiu, yin and yang cut faintly.
Zeng Yun was born with a chest swing, and he decided to enter the home bird.
Will be Ling Jueding, at a glance... the crowd!Mountain!Small! "
(End of this chapter)
sluggish.
dumbfounded.
Shock.
The expressions on the faces of all netizens who saw this announcement became extremely exciting.
Everyone just stared at the content of the announcement, and it seemed that thunder was exploding in their minds.
at last.
Screams resounded in countless places around the world, piercing the silence.
"God!"
"What do you mean?"
"Lin Xuan didn't run away?"
"My God, it's only been a few days since Lin Xuan made a bet with all the directors in Hollywood, right? His script has already been written? Has the project even been approved?"

"Let Lin Xuan know what a top director is."
"Kill him to death!"
"Oh, he really wants to fight us? That's what he wants."
"You really laughed your ass out of your teeth, and confront us with a romance movie?"
"He's probably just trying to be different."
Of course, there are also some steady directors who frown: "Lin Xuan is a bit strange.

"I predict: [-] billion at the box office!"
"..."
At this moment, someone asked: "Huh? Strange, since Brother Xuan didn't run away. At this critical moment, why didn't he stay in Hollywood, but returned to China?"
Soon, someone found out the news: Lin Xuan's Hollywood blockbuster will all be shot in China!At that time, all European and American actors will come to China.
Because of this, Lin Xuan returned to China.
He came back not to escape, but to shoot a movie!
There was another exclamation.
It is unprecedented for a Hollywood blockbuster to be filmed in China.
Huaxia netizens are excited again.
"Brother Xuan is amazing."
"Brother Xuan is giving us Huaxia face."
"Excited, so excited."
"Can you make Hollywood blockbusters in China?"
"Brother Xuan is awesome."
"..."
Seeing the comments of Huaxia netizens, the foreign media slandered in their hearts: a bunch of idiot fans.
But they also had to admire Lin Xuan's prestige in China.Even though Lin Xuan chose such an unreliable movie, fans still supported him.
As for Lin Xuan's decision to make a movie in China, many insiders of course scoffed at it.
It's not that Hollywood movies can't be shot in China, and even before that, several blockbuster Hollywood movies have been filmed in China, but it's just for shooting.The real big scenes had to be shot in North America.Otherwise, the crew, logistics, resources, equipment, etc. will not be able to keep up.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Lin Xuan's operation is completely incomprehensible.
Even internationally, someone launched a vote.
[Lin Xuan's film project has been approved, who do you think will win in this duel? 】
"It's useless to think about it? The big Hollywood directors will definitely win."
"There is no comparison at all."
"Even if Lin Xuan comes up with another groundbreaking movie comparable to "Transformers", he can't win."
"Yes, no matter how high the box office of his movie is, it is doomed to lose. After all, this time the comparison is not only box office, but also word of mouth, and Oscar..."
"There's no need to vote at all."
"Haha, it's just a joke."
Soon, the voting results will be announced.
96% chose a Hollywood director to win.
4% of the people chose Lin Xuan to win.
It is really a surprise that 4% of the people think that Lin Xuan can win.
Probably some of Lin Xuan's diehard fans.
Of course, it is also possible that netizens are just joking.
……
After the initial shock, many people in the industry finally focused their attention on Lin Xuan's movie "Titanic".
Through the name of the movie, everyone easily found the ship related to the movie, and at the same time knew the huge shipwreck more than a hundred years ago.
"Lin Xuan wants to make such a movie?"
"A real historical event?"
"interesting."
"But the limitations are also great."
"Yes, there is no room for play."
Especially Hollywood directors frowned.
Because many directors have filmed this kind of shipwreck movie before, but basically they didn't get much response.Because such a movie has too little room to operate, most of the shots can only be confined to one ship, which makes the movie less interesting and anticipating.
monotonous.
dull.
Relatively uninteresting romance plot...etc.
Because of this, the box office of such movies has a ceiling, maybe not too low, but definitely not too high.
……
for outside voices.
Ever since Second World announced the establishment of the "Titanic" project, Lin Xuan never paid attention to it.
On the first day, an emergency meeting of the company's top management was called.
The next day, I rushed to Lu Province with the company's top management to negotiate and formally sign the filming location.
On the third day, field trips.
On the fourth day, the venue was settled.
On the fifth day, Lin Xuan called the engineering team in and started a vigorous site rectification.
On the tenth day, when the site was slightly completed, several planes transported a large logistics crew from North America to start the construction of the film and television site.
Next, apart from the basic contact with relatives, friends, and important company matters, Lin Xuan cut off almost all external contacts, and began to sink into the preliminary construction of "Titanic".
The shooting process of "Titanic" was not very troublesome for Lin Xuan. The most troublesome thing was the construction of the shooting site and the building of the hull model.This process, without more than half a year to a year, is not enough at all.Moreover, Lin Xuan must keep an eye on the progress of the project all the time, without any slack.
In the previous life, due to funding problems, Cameron only built half of the ship, and the other half was fused with the other half after a later stage.
But this time, Lin Xuan, who is rich and powerful, is going to build the entire ship.In this way, the pictures taken at that time will be more shocking and magnificent.
rich!
capricious!
This can be regarded as the project that Lin Xuan has worked on for the longest time and with the largest investment since his debut. Only when he really invested in the pre-production of the film did he feel how much preparatory work the film requires, even if it is "Changjin Lake" " is not worth mentioning in front of it.This is still the feeling when he has a clear memory and copied his predecessors.If he didn't have these memories and started everything from scratch, he couldn't imagine how cumbersome the preliminary work would be.
The more this is the case, the more he can appreciate the greatness of Cameron.
"Maybe, only a director like Cameron can make "Titanic"?"
Lin Xuan admired in his heart.
It was so difficult for him to shoot according to his memory. It is really impossible to imagine how Cameron managed such a huge movie back then.
……
time flies.
One month.
two months.
Three months.
Outside, the films of many Hollywood directors have finally opened their premieres.
After all, among the thirty-three directors, the works of major Hollywood directors who are dueling with Lin Xuan are released basically every month, and they don't stop every month.
The international film world is full of excitement.
The first Hollywood director to confront Lin Xuan was Joseph.
One of Hollywood's legendary directors!
The director directed the futuristic sci-fi film "Interstellar Voyage" eight years ago, which achieved a box office of 8.8 million US dollars and was sought after by a large number of sci-fi fans.This time he brought "Star Trek 2", which is definitely a surprise for science fiction fans.
The day the movie was released.
Countless theaters around the world are buzzing.
"Ahhh, it's so enjoyable."
"The premiere of Joseph's movie is on."
"I remember that his movie was supposed to be released at the end of the year, but it turned out to be a few months ahead of schedule."
"It seems that it's all due to Lin Xuan's bet. Thanks to Lin Xuan, we have such a blessing."
"Hurry up and buy tickets. It's Star Trek 2. I've been looking forward to it for several years."
"my favourite."
"Must support."
Soon, the box office for the premiere came out.
Excluding China's box office, the first-day box office of "Star Trek 2" was as high as 5128 million US dollars!
A dazzling achievement!
Countless movie fans and media reporters exclaimed when they saw this achievement.
The box office on the first day was more than [-] million, which means that the final box office of the movie has a high probability of breaking through one billion US dollars.
Everyone was stunned.
"My God, the box office of the first movie was so high?"
"Proper billion club."
"It's so beautiful, it's not surprising that it has a box office of one billion."
"Lin Xuan is going to be dumbfounded, the first director is so powerful."
"The box office of "Transformers" was only around [-] million at the time, right? In other words, it is only Joseph who is the first person, and it is possible to put Lin Xuan on the ground."
"terrible."
As a result, before "Star Voyage 2" was released.
The second big Hollywood director has arrived with his movie.
This person is none other than Gustav!
Another legendary Hollywood director!
This time, Gustav's movie is called "The Lone Ranger 3", which is also a series of movies.In the past fifteen years, "The Lone Ranger" and "The Lone Ranger 2" directed by Gustav have achieved outstanding results of 8.5 million US dollars and 11 billion US dollars respectively in the world. This time he brought "The Lone Ranger 3" Come, obviously full of confidence.
really.
After "The Lone Ranger 3" was released, it grossed $6725 billion at the global box office on the first day.
Shocked the world!
"Oh my God!"
"The single-day box office is nearly [-] million?"
"Scary!"
Especially in the following days, the box office trend of "The Lone Ranger 3" is hardly in a sluggish state, but has been firmly dominating the global box office list all the way.
There are fans in the industry, and there is a high probability that the final box office of this movie will exceed 12 billion US dollars!
This is 12 billion US dollars excluding China's box office!
If China's box office is included... well, forget it, now that Chinese netizens are actively boycotting Hollywood movies, "The Lone Ranger 3" has simply canceled its release plan in China, so there is no data for the time being.
Joseph.
Gustav.
Two legendary directors completely started this shocking game.
half a month later.
The third legendary director stood up: Gerald!
Since Gerald's films have never competed much for the box office, "The Lone Ranger 3" is still on the air worldwide for a few days, but he still opened the premiere of his film.
The movie is called "My Lonely Life". This movie thoroughly dissects human nature, but after the first day of premiere, the movie's box office on the first day was fixed at 1491 million US dollars.
Seeing this data, many Huaxia netizens finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"The box office on the first day was only over [-] million?"
"This is not threatening."
"Brother Xuan can ignore this person."
"The box office of the first two Hollywood directors scared me to death."
But soon, someone shouted: "Brothers, don't be too happy, don't you read the news carefully? The comparison between Gerald and Brother Xuan is not the box office, but word of mouth! Word of mouth!"
Everyone was stunned.
Many netizens who were able to overcome the wall were shocked and quickly opened Rotten Tomatoes.Then everyone was shocked to find that, just half a day after its release, the word-of-mouth rating of "My Lonely Life" on Rotten Tomatoes reached 9.3 points!
Rating up to 9.3 points!
When Lin Xuan's "Transformers" was released, the score on Rotten Tomatoes was 8.5 points.Although for a commercial film, 8.5 points is already extremely remarkable.
But now, "My Lonely Life" is as high as 9.3 points!
Huaxia netizens fell silent.
Everyone lost their voices.
On the contrary, European and American movie fans are very excited.
"Gerald is amazing!"
"Oh my god, a 9.3 rating?"
"Those with over nine points are all classics, and Gerald is worthy of being a legendary director."
"With such a high score, it is estimated that it can hit an Oscar!"
Generally speaking, a movie with a high reputation has the possibility of hitting the Oscars. Even if it doesn't win the hearts of the Oscar judges, it is still no problem to win one or two finalists.
now.
Somewhere in North America, Gerald was secretly surprised when he saw the data of the movie.For the film's score of 9.3 points, he was not surprised. What really surprised him was the box office: the box office on the first day was nearly 3 million!This means that the final box office of this movie has a high probability of reaching [-] million US dollars.And when he made this movie, he didn't care about the box office at all, he just went for word of mouth, an in-depth movie specially shot to hit the Cannes and Berlin Film Awards.
In his original guess, the highest box office of this movie is about [-] million US dollars, or even tens of millions.
Unexpectedly, the current box office has greatly exceeded his expectations.
Hollywood directors.
"How come Gerald's movie box office is so high?"
"That's right, I thought the box office on the first day was at most five million."
"This is a literary film."
"My heart trembled because of the high box office."
Gerald: "I was surprised too."
Soon, Gustav said: "I think this matter may have something to do with Lin Xuan."
Everyone stayed.
Is it related to Lin Xuan?
The box office is high, why is it related to Lin Xuan?
Gustav said: "The box office of my movie was also higher than I expected. Originally, in my estimation, the box office on the first day was at most just over 6700 million US dollars, but in the end it was as high as [-] million US dollars. Many countries and the local premiere, the box office even broke the local record. I also asked Joseph, his movie box office is also surprisingly good. If only one person has such a situation, I can still think it is an accident, but the few of us The box office all exploded unexpectedly, which means that because our bet with Lin Xuan is too popular in the world, many people who would not have watched our movies have also attracted them."
When everyone heard it, they suddenly realized.
"Haha, it's really possible."
"So betting with Lin Xuan has this benefit?"
"Lin Xuan couldn't win in the first place, so he will be even more desperate."
"Lin Xuan probably never dreamed that he indirectly made wedding dresses for us."
"Lin Xuan is making things worse."
"I feel a little sorry for him."
the next day.
One legendary director after another stood up.
Or a new movie comes out.
Or announce plans for a new movie.
One.
two.
ten.
twenty.
In the past few decades, it has been difficult for movie fans to see scenes of collective explosions of major Hollywood directors.In the past, it was difficult for these top directors to produce a movie in five or ten years.But now, because of Lin Xuan's bet, many directors have released and filmed the originally planned movies in advance.
The whole of Hollywood set off a movie feast.
In this way, movie fans are feasting their eyes.
Even the world's film industry can't help but sigh, this is an unprecedented scene.
"Oh my god, Elton's movie box office exploded again?"
"Shocked, isn't it? Jia Aisi's new movie has a reputation of 9.4 points."
"Another blockbuster movie?"
"This movie is definitely the strongest Oscar contender."
"Ahhh! Pete actually announced that he will be filming "Death Plan 3"."
"What? Ferdinand finally filmed "The Devil 3"? I've been waiting for five years."
"These big Hollywood directors are all crazy?"
Exclamations came and went.
Even the media began to become numb after seeing each big news.
Kill crazy.
They all went crazy.
Many people were dumbfounded when they saw it. These big directors in Hollywood didn't give Lin Xuan a chance at all.
Originally they were the top directors, but now everyone's performance broke out again, Lin Xuan was scared to death.
……
China.
After nearly half a year of large-scale construction in the early stage, hundreds of millions of dollars have been invested.A beach more than [-] kilometers south of Qingdao has been transformed by Lin Xuan into a super-large film shooting base.
"Finally done."
Looking at the deserted beach in front of him turned into a modern film base, Lin Xuan felt a strong sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Everything is ready.
Then the filming will officially start.
However, before filming, Lin Xuan decided to relax with the logistics team who had been busy here for several months. Most of the staff here are from North America.It just so happened that the place where they worked was not very far from Mount Tai. After some discussion, Lin Xuan decided to take them to visit Mount Tai, the first of China's Five Sacred Mountains.
First, it can make them relax and start more intense work in the future.Second, it can also let them feel the great rivers and mountains of China.
A few days later, everyone went straight to Mount Tai.
What Lin Xuan didn't expect was that because he disappeared for several months, countless media reporters went crazy looking for him.
therefore.
When he appeared on Mount Tai, he immediately alarmed the media reporters.
At least dozens of reporters rushed to Mount Tai with dozens of kilograms of photographic equipment in desperation, preparing to interview Lin Xuan.
then.
When Lin Xuan climbed to the top of Mount Tai, he saw a group of reporters following him, and he was stunned: "You guys are working too hard? Are you following to the top of Mount Tai?"
The reporters got excited, and countless questions began to pop up.
"Brother Xuan, Joseph's movie box office exploded, what do you think?"
"Gustav's new movie has a box office of 12.8 billion. Are you under any pressure?"
"Jia Aisi's new movie has a word-of-mouth rating of 9.4 points. How can you surpass him?"
"Ferdinand is preparing to shoot "Demon King 3". According to industry analysis, its box office may reach 15 billion. What do you do?"
"Are you stressed?"
"Can you win?"
"What should I do if I lose?"
"..."
Hearing these reporters' questions, Lin Xuan finally understood why the reporters were in such a hurry.In the past few months, in order not to affect his work, he blocked almost all news from the international entertainment industry.Until today, he didn't know that so many major events had happened internationally in the past few months.
Lin Xuan was stunned.
There was a storm in my heart.
isn't it?
Those big Hollywood directors who are fighting against him, have their box office and word-of-mouth hit new highs?
Even several directors started the shooting of the big movie series in advance?
The global film boom?
Is it all because of him alone?
Beside, several staff members were also dumbfounded.
"My God, why is the box office so high?"
"Then how do we compare?"
"The highest box office is already 12 billion?"
"Oh my god, are we still going to fuck up in this duel?"
"Ruined."
"How to do?"
Originally, these big Hollywood directors were scary enough, and coupled with the explosion of the other party, no matter how powerful Lin Xuan was, it was not enough to watch.
Everyone looked ugly.
Even the good mood to play is gone.
Looking at the burning eyes of the reporters and the discouragement of the staff, Lin Xuan suddenly showed a bright smile on his face, and he said, "I won't answer these questions one by one. I just came to climb Mount Tai today. , how about I read a poem here?"
What?
Read poetry?
The reporters were bewildered.
They worked so hard to follow Lin Xuan up Mount Tai just for the interview in front of them.In the end, Lin Xuan didn't answer their questions, but went to recite poems. What does it mean?
Especially the staff next to him almost vomited blood: Brother, what time is it, are you still in the mood to recite poetry?
However, Lin Xuan didn't look at them. He stood on the top of the five mountains, facing the cold wind blowing from the top of the mountain, overlooking the cloud-shrouded scenery at his feet. "Wang Yue"!"
Then, his voice rolled and resounded in all directions:
"How about Dai Zongfu? Qi Lu Qingwei is now.
Chong Shenxiu, yin and yang cut faintly.
Zeng Yun was born with a chest swing, and he decided to enter the home bird.
Will be Ling Jueding, at a glance... the crowd!Mountain!Small! "
