Accidentally became a great director

Chapter 323 320 Honor
On January 1th, Lin Runze ended his road show again, but he couldn't rest, he had to meet someone.

Seeing Zeng Li with shaved face and heavy makeup, Lin Runze felt a little distressed, but his mouth was still unrelenting: "Why bother, I have never seen you before, but you really turned into a vixen."

Zeng Li's eyes turned red when he heard the long-lost teasing. Looking at Lin Runze, who was getting more and more handsome, he opened his mouth and asked after a while, "Have you recovered from your cold?"

"Okay, if it's not good, I won't go to the road show. You know, I care about my body."

Lin Runze's heart was softened by this question of gentle concern, and he stopped teasing and calmed down.

"Why do you care so much about your body? That time you didn't come out for a month..."

Without even thinking about it, Zeng Li retorted, but stopped in the middle of the sentence, with a slight arc at the corner of her mouth, and her voice became dry: "It's fine."

After a pause, he said again: "Congratulations, the movie "I Am Legend" is a big hit. Maybe the box office will reach 60 billion yuan when it is released."

Zeng Li looked at Lin Ruize with a trace of admiration. Sure enough, the man she liked did not disappoint her. In just three years, he reached a peak that others could not reach.

"I Am Legend" was released for 10 days, with a total domestic box office of 19.6 billion yuan and a total overseas box office of 3.3 million US dollars. According to the general curve, the box office in the first 10 days will account for 2/3 of the total box office. That is to say, "I Am Legend" If the follow-up of "Legend" is still strong, then his global box office will be 59.1 billion yuan!

If the curve is good, it is very possible to break through 60 billion yuan!
Ha, this seems to be the first Chinese movie to have such a high global box office.

Why doesn't she adore this man?
"It is impossible to break through 60 billion yuan, and even 55 billion is too much."

Lin Runze shook his head.

"Why? Is there anyone still picking up the stumbling block?"

Zeng Li didn't believe it, "I Am Legend" is not just a private movie now, it is also a symbol, and the national power will definitely support it behind it. At this moment, no one in the Chinese film industry dares to hold back.

"The box office is so high now, it's because it's just in time for the holidays, China is Shuangdan, North America and other Western countries just catch up with the Christmas holiday, the next box office will not be so high, even if there is an extension key, it should be seen People have already finished watching the movie, after all, there are very few people who watch it twice and three times, so starting today, the box office should have a big drop."

Lin Runze thought so too at the beginning. After all, this is his script and the movie he directed. If he can really reach 60 billion yuan, then he is really a war god, but after thinking about it, it is impossible, Shuangdan Once it's over, there will be no festivals, and now it's the Lunar New Year period, and new movies will be released one after another, even if he wants to keep it flowing.

The limit of this movie should be more than 50 billion, not more than 55 billion.

"That's a pity."

Zeng Li believed Lin Runze's judgment, with a bit of pity on her face, and then she smiled again: "55 billion is too much, domestic 19.6 billion, today's box office will surpass Transformers' 19.76 billion, right? So starting today, increasing the box office a little every day is breaking the domestic box office record."

国内票房最高记录就是《变形金刚4》的19.76亿，紧接着就是10年《阿凡达》的17.15亿，然后就是98年《泰坦尼克号》的13.06亿，接下来才是中国人自己的票房记录，12年12月12日上映的《人在囧途之泰囧》的12.70亿，和周星驰的《西游降魔篇》12.46亿。而此时此刻，林润泽却直接把国人的记录至少拉升10亿以上！
"Why don't you talk about our country's foreign box office? What's the matter in the nest?"

Lin Runze suddenly returned to the previous mode of getting along with each other, just to show off his achievements.

"Yes, I forgot about this. The best overseas box office of our Chinese film is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Ang Lee. I remember that it was more than 2 million US dollars. Now you have raised it to 3.3 million US dollars. Oh, heck, I think many people will hate you, and when the final box office comes out, it may be 4 million U.S. dollars. At that time, it will be difficult for others to break your record."

Zeng Li also seemed to have returned to the days when she got along with each other, she laughed coquettishly, and gave Lin Runze a charming white look.

"Hey, people don't care about the overseas box office, the domestic box office is enough for them to eat!"

When Lin Runze said this, there was a hint of disdain. He felt that as a Chinese director, at least he should not be abusive, but should go out and express the values ​​that belong to Chinese movies.

For example, this time, he did a good job, at least let people know that not only God, but also Nuwa created human beings.Moreover, after hearing the super super superman Pangu he said, some fans in the United States began to compare Pangu with Marvel heroes.

They also want to hold a big ax and be the men who cut through the chaos of the universe!
Zeng Li said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

She naturally knew what Lin Runze meant. Although she agreed with Lin Runze's statement with a little pride, she just thought about it in her heart, and it's better not to say it, so as not to be overheard by others and cause unnecessary trouble .

"I heard that the crew of "Taking Tiger Mountain Outwitted" complained, saying that they were leaning towards "I Am Legend" in terms of film schedule, so that their film schedule was so small that their box office was not very good. "

Zeng Li shared the gossip she had heard.

"Ha, I can't blame me for this. Only the first three days have a high production rate, which is only 45%. It is not as good as Jiang Wen's "One Step Away", whose production rate is more than 52%. It's still 5 days. If they want to be jealous, they can't be jealous of me."

Lin Runze couldn't help but laugh. He doesn't take the blame for this. He only has three days of high-ranking movies. The rest of the time is for the audience to decide. If it looks good, it will naturally buy your movie ticket. If it isn't good, then it won't buy your movie ticket.

Of course, if both films are good-looking, but the audience's budget can only watch one, then it's considered that the one that is slightly worse is unlucky and bumps into each other.

"Their box office is also pretty good. It seems to be almost 5 million now."

Lin Runze didn't care much, because from the first day, the two films were not rivals at the same level.

"Well, their cost should be more than 1 million, and 5 million has just returned. I heard that there will be a celebration party soon."

Zeng Li nodded and said another piece of news.

"Pfft..."

Lin Runze smiled.

"why are you laughing?"

Zeng Li gave Lin Runze a white look, and she could naturally hear the meaning in Lin Runze's laughter: "When will your celebration party be held, won't it be held recently?"

After all, the domestic box office is about to exceed 20 billion. This number is very meaningful. The first is to surpass "Transformers 1" and become the first domestic box office. The second is an integer, which is in line with the usual habits of Chinese people.

Lin Runze nodded: "They've wanted to open it for a long time, but I just thought that it will open when the domestic box office reaches 20 billion. It's already set, that is tomorrow night, do you want to come?"

"Why should I go? I didn't play a role, so I won't go."

Zeng Li shook her head.

"You are an investor, and you have [-]% of "I Am Legend"."

Lin Runze reminded Zeng Li: "I remember I told you last time, did you forget?"

Zeng Li's eyes widened, and it was difficult to understand what was going on in her heart. Not only were her eye sockets red this time, she even burst into tears when she blinked.

"No way, what about you? "Bloody Mary", "Black Swan", "Those Years", you earned as much as me from these movies, right? It must have 4 million yuan. "I Am Legend" box office Although it is high, but you only have 60% of the share, even if it is calculated at 2 billion, you only have an income of [-] million, why are you crying?"

Lin Runze turned on the teasing mode again.

"I do not want!"

Zeng Li whispered while wiping her tears.

"I invested in the name of our company. The company earns, and we each have half. I want to get all of it, but the law stipulates that half is yours. If I take it all, I have to go in and sit down." How many years in prison?"

Lin Runze continued to play with the flower gun.

"I do not want!"

Zeng Li raised her head and glanced at Lin Runze, with an obsession inside.

"Whatever you want, if you don't want it, then give it to me, I can still hire a few little stars!"

Lin Runze got angry and said hurtful words.

Zeng Li's tone froze, and the words "I don't want" were held back in her heart, but she turned her head quickly, and she had already made a decision in her heart, and she knew how to solve this problem.Then don't get entangled in this issue, let's talk about business.

"I came to you today because I want you to explain the characters in the new movie to me."

She asked Lin Runze to come here today to talk about this matter.

"Okay, no problem, oh, by the way, does uncle know that you are coming to see me?"

Perhaps Lin Runze was still angry, and talked about taboo topics between the two of them.

"He knows that you have used the state to suppress people, can he not know?"

If Zeng Li rolled his eyes, this bastard would take advantage of the situation to bully others.The secretary of a dignified leader came to do ideological work for her father, and even talked about national honor, so what could her father do, he had to give in.

Of course, they also guaranteed that it was just work and there would be no private contact. They even said that if you are always worried, you can supervise the whole process.

As for this meeting, they were all in the coffee hall, so it shouldn't be considered private.

"I didn't do anything to suppress someone. I just asked him to say that this film might win some international honor. It's your daughter's loss if your daughter doesn't accept it."

Lin Runze shrugged, he would not admit the name of taking advantage of others.

"Can the new movie really win an award at the World Film Awards?"

As an actress, although Zeng Li has a very Buddha nature, she also wants to win an award. This is the recognition of her acting skills and the desire in her heart for so many years.

"After my training, I can get awards."

Lin Runze puts "teaching" very seriously.

"Bah, dogs can't spit ivory out of their mouths!"

As the former pillow, Zeng Li couldn't understand the meaning of Lin Runze's words, and this little bastard took advantage of her again.
