Meiyu: I don’t care about the cost when making movies

Chapter 14 Good sister?
Time flies and comes to the housewarming party two days later.

As expected, except for Sierra and Jessica, who had already known about it in advance, everyone else, including Natalie Portman, saw the luxurious Wayne Manor and learned about Wayne's generous useless loans, so they paid the full amount directly. After buying it, I was also shocked.

Not to mention those little sisters from school who were deliberately called over by Mia.

"What did you say? This mansion was bought by that poor boy Wayne Anderson?!"

Mia raised her chin slightly and smiled: "Wayne is not a poor boy, and didn't you see the name on the gate of the manor? Isn't the name 'Wayne Manor' obvious enough?"

"Oh my god! I thought some Batman fanatic gave his manor such a name!" someone exclaimed.

Mia smiled disdainfully and said: "Let me tell you, Wayne has acquired our family's Hemera Pictures and just invested 1000 million US dollars to shoot an independent film. The idea for this film also came from For Wayne, the rights have now been bought by Warner Bros. for 1950 million."

"hiss--"

The sound of gasping suddenly sounded.

Even if Wayne is rich, he can actually write a movie that Warner sees and buys. This is undoubtedly more tempting for students like them at the Film and Television Academy.

"In addition, Wayne will invest another 3000 million US dollars to shoot a new movie."

At this time, the seven or eight 'good sisters' surrounding Mia were all dumbfounded. It took them a while to come back to their senses and look at a handsome man in a suit not far away, holding a wine glass and talking to Serra. When Wayne talked about his new project, his eyes widened.

1500 million to buy a luxury house and 3000 million to invest in movies. Looking at the whole of Hollywood, it's not much that can be done, right?

Mia held the wine glass elegantly and glanced condescendingly at everyone. Seeing how they wanted to eat Wayne one by one, she couldn't help but feel proud in her heart, and her vanity was greatly satisfied.

Although there are only seven or eight people here, she believes that there is no need to wait until tomorrow. When these people go back tonight, the news will spread throughout most of the school.

When she thought of this, she was in a good mood, and even the little depression that Jessica was about to move in quickly dissipated without a trace.

As for whether Wayne will be seduced by these little sisters of hers.
Haha, if she really thinks she has no brains, will she invite a beautiful woman who can threaten her?

With her looks and figure, there are not many people in the entire school who can compare with her. None of the little sisters in front of her can compare with her.

As for technique, under Wayne's guidance during this period, she was confident that she would not lose to these little sisters.

What's more, she can also help Wayne's career, and she gave it to him the first time. All things considered, she doesn't think anyone can replace her position in Wayne's heart.

In fact it is.

After all, Mia was the first woman he came into this world, and her position was indeed quite special.

But special is special, and he who is determined to enjoy this cheating life will definitely not have the only woman Mia.

So after tonight's party, Jessica, whose body has been completely conquered and whose soul has rapidly fallen, will stay and live in Wayne Manor.

"I've thought about new projects."

After dealing with several of Mike's actresses who came over to show their courtesy, Wayne called Sierra and, together with Mike, came to a corner of the party.

"I plan to divide the funds this time into two parts."

"Part of me plans to continue writing and starring in a horror movie. The heroine will be given to Jessica. I will try to make the budget more than 800 million."

"Do you need me to contact Bill?" Sierra asked.

"No, I plan to find James Wan this time."

Wayne knew that Serra had probably never heard of this name, so he took the initiative to introduce it: "He just wrote and directed his first movie "The Dark" this year. Although it was a low-budget horror film, it was well made. Especially in creating thrillers and suspense, he looks very talented." "Okay, I will contact him as soon as possible."

Although James Wan, a future famous horror film director, was approached in advance, Wayne did not plan to film his famous work "Saw" now.

After all, there are no major roles suitable for him and Jessica in "Saw."

So he chose "Happy Death Day".

More than ten years later, this small-budget suspenseful horror movie was produced with a production cost of only US$480 million. It tells the story of the heroine Terry who is trapped in a time loop and is repeatedly killed on her birthday night. Finally, with the help of the hero Carter, she finally The story of finding the real murderer and breaking the time loop.

Even in 2017, when the time loop setting is no longer new, it still achieved an impressive box office of US$5543 million in North America, and the global box office exceeded [-] million.

If this were placed in today's era when even Butterfly Effect would not be released for several years, the box office and reputation would be even more impressive.

The most important thing is that this movie is very difficult to shoot. Because of the time loop, there are very few scenes required. If everything goes well, it will not take longer than the previous production of "Admission Notice".

If the production budget can be increased to about US$1000 million, it will definitely be more efficient than spending four or five months making an action movie with a budget of 3000 million.

As for science fiction and fantasy films whose production time is usually measured in years, he would not even consider them.

"With the remaining 2000 million funds, I plan to set up a new project team. In the name of the project team, I will buy the film adaptation rights of Robert Ludrum's best-selling novel "The Bourne Supremacy" and start preliminary preparations. "

"I plan to shoot this series into a trilogy. I plan to hire Doug Liman, the director of "Onward," as the director, and Tony Gilroy, the screenwriter of "The Devil's Advocate," will be in charge of the screenplay."

"I'll play the male lead, Bourne."

"The production cost of the first part will be increased to 5000 million as much as possible."

"As for the publicity and distribution part, it's too late to consider it after the film is produced. Anyway, we won't have financial pressure. We just need to improve the quality of the film."

"Even if we can't reach a promotion agreement with giants like Warner and Fox, we can still release it in theaters in North America first."

"It is true that there are only seven giant companies with global distribution capabilities, but if it is only released in North America, there are too many companies with distribution capabilities, such as DreamWorks."

"We can even try to establish distribution channels in North America ourselves."

"As for overseas release, after the film becomes famous in North America, some overseas film companies will contact us to purchase overseas rights. At that time, it will be up to us to take the lead whether to pay a share or buy it out in one go."

“In this way, we don’t need to worry about overseas promotion issues ourselves.”

Yes, after thinking over and over for the past few days, Wayne not only decided to film "Happy Death Day", he also set his sights on the classic series of movies "The Bourne Supremacy" starring Matt Damon in a parallel world.

Different from the gorgeous and exaggerated styles of the "007" and "Mission: Impossible" series, the style of "The Bourne Supremacy" is more realistic and sharp. Not only did it explode at the box office and word-of-mouth, it was not particularly difficult to shoot and the production cycle was not too long. It’s too long and very flattering.

Before filming The Bourne Supremacy, although Matt Damon was well-known and had won many awards and nominations, it was not until he starred in The Bourne Supremacy that he became widely known and became a hot Hollywood A-list star.

Of course, if he could travel back to this world a little earlier, his first choice would definitely be the "Fast and Furious" series.

He definitely wouldn't be able to play Dominic Toledo, but Brian O'Connor, played by Paul Walker, suits him very well.

Unfortunately, it's already mid-August, and the first Fast and Furious movie has already started filming.

"By the way, how is the publicity on the admission notice? I don't seem to have seen any publicity in the newspapers recently?"

After explaining the work, Wayne asked about the announcement of the "Admission Notice".
