China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 550: High Expectations

Chapter 550: High Expectations
As for the issue of pay.

Lin Gao despises the practice of using friendship to squeeze out pay.

He can't do it, and he doesn't bother to do it.

After all - he is not short of money.

Weiwen laughed after hearing this and couldn't help nodding.

"makes sense."

The pay for this film is as much as 70 million yuan.

Converted into US dollars, it is 10 million.

The film pay in North America and Hollywood is 20% higher.

Lin Gao was really generous in giving.

"Well, I won't cheat you this time. If there's a chance, we'll see you on the next set."

I'll give you a good meal then.

Lin Gao stared, looking shocked.

"Wow, Weiwen, your Chinese speaking skills have improved by leaps and bounds."

“He even knows how to use the word ‘kill’!”

Director Nolan brought Guo Fan over and they started chatting.

Everyone expressed shock at Lin Gao's decision to give away the car just because of a disagreement.

The filming has ended temporarily. Although he still has to focus on post-production and dubbing work, at least at this moment, Director Nolan is relatively relaxed and can enjoy some relaxing leisure time.

He came over and patted Lin Gao's shoulder with emotion.

"Lin, are you sure this won't lose money?"

Without even a few seconds of discussing with anyone, he just waved his hand and gave away tens of millions.

Director Nolan saw with his own eyes that Lin Gao's assistant's eyes almost popped out of his head with horror after hearing Lin Gao's decision.

Before he came over to chat with Lin Gao, the young assistant had huddled in a corner, looking like she was crying, complaining to someone with the phone to her ear.

I have been in China for a few days.

Director Nolan's Chinese has also made great progress, just like Weaving's.

The distance of ten meters was enough for Director Nolan to vaguely hear what the assistant said.

It seems to be something like: "Sister Lianlian...each person has a car...can't stop...the crew has more than a hundred people..."

Director Nolan's smile widened and his eyes became teasing.

I wondered in my heart, maybe he was reporting Lin Gao's prodigal behavior to Lin Gao's "housekeeper".

"The investment is quite large, so I'm not really afraid of losing money at the box office."

Guo Fan also raised his eyebrows and asked.

Unexpectedly, Lin Gao burst into laughter after hearing this and almost couldn't stand up straight.

"What are you talking about, hahahahaha——"

It's like hearing a huge joke.

Lin Gao looked at Guo Fan, then at director Nolan.

Finally, he looked around, his eyes falling on all the creative teams around him.

When he turned back, his smile faded, but his eyes were still full of joy.

"With you guys as the box office guarantee, I'm not afraid of losing money."

"How is this possible?"

"Let's not talk about other things, just Director Nolan, your name will definitely sell well at the box office internationally."

First, he praised Nolan a few words.

Lin Gao did not favor one over the other and started praising Guo Fan again.

"And you."

The fingertips fell on Guo Fan and tapped him.

"A little confidence, okay?"

"You are the director of The Wandering Earth, which is currently the top-grossing science fiction film in China."

You also have a place on the total box office list.

As he spoke, Lin Gao rolled his eyes.

"Why are you so unconfident?"

"And you're still saying I'm going to lose money? Bah, bah, bah, you're cursing yourself?"

As for why Lin Gao said that Guo Fan’s "The Wandering Earth" is temporarily number one on the science fiction box office list.

That's because the movie he's currently shooting, The Matrix, is also a science fiction film. Lin is confident.

Once the release date is set, "The Wandering Earth" will have to move down one spot on the list.
"Oh yes—and Mr. Weaving."

Lin Gao smiled deeply and nodded at Weiwen with his chin.

"The popularity of The Lord of the Rings has not yet passed, and Mr. Weaving's fans will definitely be willing to contribute to the box office."

Weiwen couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Lin Gao did not favor one over the other.

"In addition, there are the Titanic movies. My name is quite well-known internationally now, so the international box office should not be too bad."

"so."

Lin Gao spread out his palms and made a summary and evaluation in a casual manner.

"No matter how you look at it, I won't lose money."

The faces of the people who were named were all speechless.

After they looked at each other, they couldn't help but speak.

"You are the one who guarantees the box office, right?"

Guo Fan even rolled his eyes at him.

"In terms of popularity, how can we compare to you, a big star?"

Director Nolan listened with great interest and nodded in sincere approval.

"You're right. I'm beginning to wonder if you have a special physique that makes you suitable for this line of work. Whatever movie you star in, the box office will explode."

Lin Gao felt that his ability to travel through time was quite abstract and magical.

So I didn't respond, but just agreed half-jokingly.

"Since you all think so, wouldn't it disappoint you if I don't say a few words?"

"How about this, let's hope that our The Matrix will be a big hit at the box office and break the $3 billion mark in January?"

Lin Gao’s goal is really too big.

If it is a popular IP movie, such as Marvel adaptations and "The Lord of the Rings", it is actually possible to break through 2.5 billion or 3 billion.

But the subject matter Lin Gao chose this time is science fiction electronics.

In the eyes of director Nolan and others, a box office of 2 billion US dollars is already a blessing from God.

Over three billion.

Even director Nolan, who was optimistic about the script, had never thought of this before.

So when he heard this, his smiling face paused, then he looked at Lin Gao seriously and made a promise.

"Well, let's see what kind of results this movie can achieve in the end."

"If I can really achieve the box office figures you mentioned, you can always ask me to make a movie for you again. I won't charge you a penny and will work for you for free."

A sci-fi movie with a box office of 3 billion.

It would also be a dazzling achievement when placed on the resume of a famous director.

If it can really be achieved, why not make another movie for Lin Gao for free?

"Okay."

Lin Gao replied.

"That's it."

Lin Gao agreed very quickly, but he didn't take it to heart.

It’s not that I don’t believe in director Nolan’s promise.

He said the three billion, it was just a joke...

Just joking.

Lin Gao is confident that the final box office of this movie will be around 15-18 billion US dollars.

That's why I said that as a joke.
