I Know Everything
Chapter 862: An International Director Who Spends Money Like Water
Many people are Chu Liuxiang's book fans.
However, his recently published Jurassic Park did not sell well in China.
Since its publication in mid-August, it has sold only 7 million copies in two months.
This achievement, which any other author would be ashamed of, is an out-and-out slight failure in Teacher Chu Liuxiang's book.
Not to mention the best-selling The Gift of Room No. 7, the regular edition, the refined edition, and the collector's edition together have sold more than 100 million copies.
Let's just say that Xiaoba's Story, which was assembled and published after the Spring Festival this year, has sold more than 70 million copies so far.
There are many reasons for the bad sales.
Jurassic Park did not have any warm-up before, and it is a story with a bit of sci-fi adventure, which is completely different from the warm or profound social problem stories written by Mr. Chu Liuxiang before.
The fans of the two books do not overlap much.
Many people didn't buy it after reading the reviews.
However, this does not hinder the popularity of Jurassic Park in Taiji and Japan, let alone the popularity of Jurassic Park in Europe and the United States.
Taiji Kingdom and Ribenz are because they admire Chu Liuxiang very much, so they will read all the books written by Chu Liuxiang.
Besides, as a sci-fi thriller, Jurassic Park itself is very good-looking, and they have a strong reading habit, of course they can accept it.
This is even more so in Europe and the United States.
The story of dinosaurs and scientific research, the horrific atmosphere and effect, just hit their hearts.
The New York X has been in the top ten of the best-selling list for two consecutive months, which proves its strong strength.
You know, the books that can be ranked in the top ten of this list are all written by super masters.
Chu Liuxiang, a foreigner and a native of China, was able to enter the list directly, which is definitely a great achievement.
Kallenberg was not at all surprised by this.
He didn't even look at the public's reaction, back in August when he saw the preprint of Jurassic Park,
The contract has already been signed, and as the producer and director of the movie version of Jurassic Park, the preliminary preparations have begun.
Kallenberg, as one of the top directors in the United States, of course has his own team.
With a start-up capital of 100 million US dollars in hand, of course he is not stingy at all.
As soon as he came up, he spent 10 million US dollars to a special effects company and asked them to make some dinosaur models.
The size, shape, etc. must be the same as the real thing.
Shen Huan felt a little terrified when he heard the report from Weibo Film and Television.
When Spielberg produced Jurassic Park in the 1990s, it was because there was no excellent computer technology at that time that a large number of dinosaur models were produced.
But now computer technology can fully support the creation of dinosaurs, and post-production special effects can make up for all effect defects.
As a result, Kallenberg insisted on making dinosaur models, because he said it would make it feel more real.
All right.
You are the director and producer, you call the shots.
Shen Huan thought that he and the truck driver had no experience, almost the same stubbornness, and almost the same talent, so he decided to endure it.
When the truck driver made Titanic, two of the top seven Hollywood companies almost went bankrupt, and the producers of the two giants were discouraged and wanted to jump off the building to escape.
The current Kallenberg has not reached this point yet.
As a matter of fact, Kallenberg was more motivating than Shen Huan imagined.
Not long after this happened, at the beginning of September, two Hollywood special effects giants had already received his orders, each worth almost 20 million U.S. dollars.
There are two giant companies, one is doing motion capture special effects, and the other is focusing on special effects for large and complex scenes.
Kallenberg gave them his requirements and renderings in advance, so that they could prepare in advance.
This is not a big deal, Kalonberg is also planning to charter an island to make movies on the spot.
Calculated in such a way, basically the production has not yet started, and almost half of the 100 million US dollars has been spent.
When he saw these bills, Zhou Dou couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly, and said to He Yuchang beside him, It's a good thing that Shen Huan didn't agree to co-produce, otherwise, even we would be distressed by this investment!
Isn't it?
He Yuchang smoked a cigar and said with a smile: According to Kallenberg's lavish habit, how could 100 million dollars be able to afford it? It should be at least 150 million dollars, or even more!... Tsk tsk, a movie can cost you ten dollars. Hundreds of millions of RMB, Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang are really cowboys!
Who is it that people are so popular and have so much money? Zhou Dou sighed, It's different now! With those Internet companies stepping in, our traditional film and television companies are simply incomparable!
What Zhou Dou was talking about was Shanhai.com.
The compensation that Shanhai.com gave Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng was beyond the imagination of the film and television industry.
Lu Xiaofeng starred in Youth Di Renjie and received a salary of 50 million, setting a record for an actor's sky-high salary!
Even just a few months ago, they actually used 1% of the shares to obtain Chu Liuxiang's 10-year cooperation authority.
Shanhai.com has not yet been listed, but it has reached a super high valuation of 120 billion US dollars.
1% of the shares is 1.2 billion US dollars, 8.4 billion yuan.
Such a sum alone is equivalent to one-third of Zhou Dou's wealth, which is already higher than He Yuchang's.
So Fengxiang Film and Television took out 150 million U.S. dollars, and there was no pressure at all.
Let's not mention this. We have the distribution rights, but it's a good thing. At least this movie has great box office potential in Europe and the United States. He Yuchang waved his hand, Calenberg is urging the heroine to join the crew Alright, who did Shen Huan choose? Are our actors capable of acting?
Not for now. Zhou Dou shook his head.
Could he choose his little girlfriend again? He Yuchang frowned and said, With Shen Huan, Buyiyi really has the momentum to skyrocket! It's a pity that we don't have much cooperation with us!
It's not Bou Yiyi. Zhou Dou said, Ms. Chu Liuxiang originally wanted to choose Chen Qian, but Chen Qian was filming Xiao Ba's Story and couldn't leave at all. Bou Yiyi was also filming Huan Zhu Ge Ge 2 There is no way to spend the first half of the year with Kallenberg.
They're just hanging around among a few acquaintances! Don't worry about them being supportive! He Yuchang said with envy.
Zhu Mei, Guo Hang, Chen Qian... These second- and third-rate talents who were not well-known before have grown into existences that they all must respect.
When I was waiting for someone, why didn't I think about getting along with Chu Liuxiang?
Mistake!
