Go abroad to become a director and overturn Hollywood at the box office

Chapter 36 Writing the Matrix! 800 million meters of gold arrived

The movie officially begins.

When everyone watches their performance on the big screen, it feels completely different from the feeling on the set.

There is a familiar feeling of strangeness that is very novel.

As the story of the movie unfolds, the discussion surrounding the identity of the male protagonist John has been in an escalating state.

The plot and ideas are fascinating.

Everyone was not only watching the film, but also paying attention to the reactions of other viewers.

Find your own satisfaction from the audience's viewing experience, and of course, there are also performance issues.

After an hour and a half, the movie ends.

The audience was very satisfied and no one left the venue during the performance.

There was a lot of discussion as we were leaving, praising this as a very special film.

Afterwards, Qin Feng invited everyone to have a midnight snack.

Everyone recalled interesting events on the set and discussed their respective performances.

He suddenly discovered:
Although these actors are not big names, they are extremely dedicated to acting and take their work extremely seriously.

Everyone has a shining point.

David Smith and Qin Feng drank a lot of wine.

Everyone was happy this night.

……

The next morning, Qin Feng was still asleep.

Jingle Bell--

Scarlett called.

"...Hello? Scarlett."

"Qin Feng, I watched our movie with my friends yesterday. They all said it was very beautiful!"

"The reviews online are also very good, and netizens are very supportive of our movie."

"Oh~~ You went to see it. I thought you didn't have time on the set...We were all here last night, but you were the only one missing."

"I know, I'm really sorry."

"It's okay~" He yawned, "When will you come back?"

"It's still early! Huh? You haven't woken up yet?"

"Don't mention it, Smith and I drank a little too much, and our heads are still a little dizzy."

"Qin Feng, please pay attention to your health and rest first, bye~~"

"Bye~~"

……

Jurassic Park has been in theaters for three weeks.

According to the contract between Universal Pictures and the theater chain, it is time for the first box office split.

It is currently being released one after another around the world, with a total box office of 7 million yuan.

Theaters and various taxes account for about 55%, and producers account for about 45%.

The total cost is 1 million and the net profit is 2.1 million.

After various personal tax deductions, Qin Feng's share can be more than 800 million yuan.

And there will be income in the future.

Of course, each company's contract with the theater chain is different, and each movie will also be different.

It was the first time that Qin Feng got such a huge sum of money.

He was happy, but just happy, because he knew that as the movie continued to be filmed and released.

His wealth will accumulate even more.

So fortunately, he wasn't too excited.

He made a special trip to the bank and spent half a day to settle the paychecks of David Smith and others.

At this time, there was more than 700 million yuan left on hand.

Get out of the bank.

He walked along the road, his expression full of confidence.

Wealth gave him a firm heart.

Pedestrians passed him by in a hurry on the road.

"Everything is almost done..."

"It's time to think about the next movie."

I found a bench and sat down.

Close your eyes slightly.

In my mind, it was pitch black.

Suddenly, a green letter appeared in front of him.

Then, there was another letter, and in an instant, countless letters appeared.

They are constantly moving and converging, forming neat lines of code.

It runs extremely fast from top to bottom, like a time and space tunnel.brush--!
Qin Feng opened his eyes, he knew what he wanted to take next!

--"The Matrix"!
The Original World was released in 1999. It is a science fiction and action movie classic. The original director was the Wodesky brothers.

The trilogy was filmed first, and then the fourth film was filmed.

Among them, the first part of the movie is about:
A young cyber hacker, Neo, discovers that the seemingly normal real world is actually controlled by a computer artificial intelligence system called "The Matrix".

Neo investigated the matter on the Internet.

Under the guidance of a mysterious girl, Trinity, he met Morpheus, the leader of the hacker organization.

Morpheus has been searching for the legendary savior in the Matrix.

Neo also returned to the real reality under the guidance of Morpheus.

From then on, we embarked on the journey of resisting the matrix!
Qin Feng made a decision and drove home immediately.

Back to the apartment.

Make a cup of tea bought from a Chinese supermarket.

Open your computer and documents,
Type the next line of text.

He struck quickly, almost without thinking, like a musician playing familiar piano music.

A few hours later, a script was completed.

Qin Feng rubbed his eyes and moved for a while.

Check and modify again at the end.

Finally you're done!

He leaned back and fell into deep thought:
"The Matrix" is not a low-budget film.

It requires corporate operations and a lot of investment, which may be similar to the entire cost of Jurassic.

In this case, you still have to vote for Universal...

But no matter what, I have to be the director this time!
Otherwise, you really have to find another company.

thought here.

He called Katherine Kennedy.

"Hi, Manager Kennedy."

"Hey Qin Feng, tell me."

"Do you have time this afternoon? I'm going to talk to you about something."

"Afternoon, okay, you can come over at 4 o'clock."

"OK, see you at 4 o'clock."

……

in the afternoon.

Universal Studios Headquarters.

"We meet again, Manager Kennedy."

Kennedy smiled and said: "Qin Feng, you always surprise me every time you come here. What's wrong? Have you received the screenwriter's money?"

"I received that. I came here for other reasons."

"Don't tell me, you have just created another movie in the past few days?"

"...That's not true. I brought a script this time."

"Huh??" Kennedy exclaimed, "You really surprised me again!"

This Qin Feng is really awesome!

Your script writing has almost caught up with the novel's update.

"Did you write another notebook?"

"Yes."

Qin Feng took out a stack of manuscript paper from his bag and handed it over.

"Only half this time."

Kennedy took it, "The Matrix, Qin Feng, is this another science fiction movie?"

"Yes."

Kennedy flipped through it roughly and said, "Not bad! It has a very novel world view. It can be seen that it is another big production."

Qin Feng moved forward and said, "Manager Kennedy, let me be the director this time! Do you think it's okay?"

Kennedy rubbed his brows and looked troubled, "Qin Feng, the company has regulations, and there are certain standards and conditions for the appointment of directors."

"Let me tell you the truth, the production cost for a new director will not exceed 3000 to [-] million... This is also the reason why there are relatively few science fiction films on the market. Unless you are a big director, you really don't dare to invest now. Vote!"

"I think you can't afford 3000 million!"

Qin Feng frowned and said, "Can't you just make some changes?"

"There is only one way."

"Oh? What way?"

Kennedy looked at him and said sincerely:

"Unless you become an assistant director again, have another experience, and achieve success at the box office, I will definitely find a way to let you direct future blockbusters!"

"Do you want to?"
