Entertainment: God-level director

“I thought Nazha was suitable for this role, so I cast her. Lin

Ran replied with a smile, and then asked:”Journalist friend, do you think Nazha is not suitable?””

“Ah, no.”The reporter quickly shook her head.

Even if she felt that Gulinazha was indeed inappropriate, she did not dare to show it directly.

Just kidding, if she said that she was inappropriate, it would not be questioning Gulinazha, but a slap in Lin Ran’s face..

Lin Ran is a great international director who won the Oscar for Best Director. Isn’t it better to be a reporter who understands actors than you?

Seeing that this annoying reporter was pushed back by Lin Ran, Gu Linaza was very happy and couldn’t help but feel sweet to Lin Ran. sweet smile

“Director Lin, can you announce the cost of this movie?”The next reporter asked Lin Ran again.

“The production cost is US$150 million.”

Lin Ran naturally won’t hide it. This is a good publicity point.

“150 million US dollars, which is almost 1 billion yuan, a proper big production!”

“Only $150 million? With so many big-name stars and good special effects, are the funds enough?”

“Bro, is the cost of US$150 million still low? If you put it in Hollywood, it would be considered an A-level production.”

“The US$150 million that Brother Ran mentioned must be real. Unlike some domestic movies that spend US$800 billion on publicity, in fact, the production cost can be as high as three to five billion.”

“The lineup looks luxurious, but in fact, Dwayne Johnson’s salary is just a little more expensive. Other domestic stars who star in Lin Ran’s movies should not be that expensive.”

“Yes, this is Lin Ran’s movie. How many big-name stars don’t have the chance to star in it for free.”

After hearing that the production cost was US$150 million, netizens who watched the live broadcast started talking again.

Netizens guessed right. Except for Dwayne Johnson, the salaries of other actors are not high.

Even Brother Cheng Long is no exception.

Because he There were not many scenes in the film, so Cheng Long only received a friendly price of 10 million yuan, about 1.5 million US dollars.

For a blockbuster with a production cost of 150 million US dollars, this salary is really very low.

The next one was The reporter who called the movie asked along the way:”Director Lin, what are your expectations for the final box office?”

“Set a small goal, $1.5 billion globally.”

Lin Ran thought for a while and replied with a smile.

US$1.5 billion worldwide?

Hearing Lin Ran’s words, the reporters at the scene were in a commotion and full of excitement.

The box office of US$1.5 billion is definitely not an easy figure to reach.

Every year, the global There will definitely be no more than 5 movies that can exceed 1.5 billion in box office, or even just one or two.

In other words, Lin Ran is trying to win the annual global box office championship.

“Brother Ran 666, it was 1.5 billion US dollars as soon as he opened the mouth!”

“1.5 billion U.S. dollars, converted into RMB, has exceeded 10 billion. Is money so worthless now?”

“Brother Ran, stop bragging, be careful of getting slapped in the face.”

“There’s no need to make too much of a fuss. The box office of”Inception” was US$1.128 billion. Now it’s not too outrageous to set a small target of US$1.5 billion.”

“Hahaha, from when Brother Ran announced that the box office of”Wolf Warrior 2″ would exceed 3 billion, countless people thought that he would be slapped in the face. However, now every time Brother Ran’s prediction has come true, so don’t worry.”

“Don’t tell me, I really expected Lin Ran to be slapped in the face once. It seems too unreal to be successful all the time.”

“I would like to solemnly remind you that this is Lin Ran’s own bragging, and it has nothing to do with us fans after being slapped in the face.”

At the press conference.

The next reporter asked:”Director Lin, when will this movie be released?”

“Summer vacation next year.”

The filming of this movie is planned to take four months. The filming will start at the end of April. If everything goes well

, it will be completed by the end of August. If it is scheduled to be released in July next year, there will be almost a year for post-production, which is enough time.

For a blockbuster like this The most time-consuming part of post-production is the special effects, but the special effects shots are not started after the movie is finished, but will be added from the beginning.

Since there are a large number of special effects shots, the special effects company will also send special effects shots at that time. A team comes to connect with the group to determine the specific design of the special effects shots.

After shooting this set of special effects shots that day, they will be sent back to the special effects company to start post-production.

“Johnson……”

Next, reporters continued to ask questions to Dwayne Johnson, Cheng Long, Chen Daoming, Chen Kun, Gulinazha and others.

Even if each person only asks three questions, it will take a lot of time to ask them all.

Therefore, the originally scheduled half-hour question time was extended to forty-five minutes.

After the press conference, reporters rushed back to write articles as soon as possible

“Lin Ran, are you really confident of getting a box office of 1.5 billion US dollars?”

Wang Ziwen said suspiciously.

She is also here today. She just hosted the press conference.

“We still have to have dreams, what if they come true? Lin Ran smiled and said

“Lin Ran, you are really confident. Even when I was at my peak, I would not dare to shout out this box office figure even if I were beaten to death.”

Cheng Long gave Lin Ran a thumbs up.

Others also nodded. In view of Lin Ran’s past achievements, they still believed in it.

“Big Brother has won the award. Times are developing, and we definitely can no longer use past box office results to make direct comparisons.

The simplest example is that more than ten years ago, there were only a few domestic box office films that exceeded 100 million yuan per year, but now it easily reaches 30 to 4 billion yuan. Lin

Ran smiled and said

“Domestic box office is now high, but the quality of the film is also required to get it.

You see, several of my movies were flopped, with only one or two billion in box office.”

Cheng Long shrugged, mocking himself.

“Brother Cheng Long, it’s not that your movies are bad, it’s just that people have seen them too many times and there’s no freshness in them anymore.”Chen Kundao

“Yep.”

Others also offered words of comfort.

Even though Cheng Long’s movies in recent years have indeed been a bit too sexy, he was too successful in the past and everyone still respects him. It can be said that before Lin Ran’s rise, Cheng Long was the only one. There are very high-profile Chinese stars all over the world.

Li Eucalyptus is the director. His highest-grossing movie is”Life of Pi”, which only cost 610 million U.S. dollars. He is not well-known in the world outside the Chinese.

Zhang Ziyi , the same goes for Gong Li and others. They may be somewhat well-known in the industry, but among ordinary audiences around the world, they are completely unknown.

While they were chatting, the relevant content of the”Jurassic World” press conference was already posted on Weibo. caused widespread heated discussion.
