In Xu Cun's office of DreamWorks (US G branch).

Xu Cun put down the financial statement that Jeffrey brought, and said, It's not bad, with a profit of more than fourteen million U.S. dollars.

Jeffrey said sourly: Boss, if you don't sell the copyrights of ET and Home Alone to 20th Century Fox Film Company, the financial statements will definitely look better!

Xu Cun looked at Jeffery and smiled, Old man Jeffery, are you blaming me?

Jeffrey shrugged and said, I just feel that it's a pity. These two series of films are both series of films that can make a lot of money. Well... If possible, I hope that the boss will not release the copyright of Back to the Future any more. It was also sold. You know, DreamWorks has not had a trump movie until now.

Xu Cun looked at Jeffrey and said, Are you so confident in Back to the Future?

Jeffrey shook his head and said, I have confidence in your talent, boss!

After hearing Jeffery's flattery, Xu Cun said with a smile, I will consider your suggestion.

After a pause, Xu Cun asked Jeffrey: How is your Mermaid filming going?

Jeffrey replied: More than half of the filming is finished. You know, making an animation is not like making a movie. It takes more time. Well... I think it will be released by the end of the year or early next year.

Xu Cun nodded, and then asked, Where is Cameron's Terminator?

Jeffrey complained: Cameron is the slowest director I know to make a movie! It's been eight months, and he's only made a small half of it, and the production fee of Terminator has exceeded the budget.

Xu Cun shook his head slightly, and said: It's slow enough, but if Cameron can make a good movie that makes money for us, then his excesses are not unforgivable.

Jeffery nodded and said, I've seen the part that was filmed, and it's not bad. It should have a good box office.

Xu Cun said: That's good... By the way, have you received any good movies recently?

Jeffery gave Xu Cun the seven or eight scripts he had prepared a long time ago, and said, There are a few good ones, such as Ghostbusters and Little Monsters... Ghostbusters is a very good one. Good adventure movie, the only bad thing about it is that it was made on a budget of thirty million dollars, but Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis already got fifteen million dollars from Columbia Pictures, and now They're still short of $15 million...Compared to the investment of Gremlins is much less, Joe Dante said Gremlins only needs 10 million production costs. Gremlins One of the freshest scripts I've seen in years, and I wanted to buy it and have Joe Dante direct it.

Seeing Jeffery's keen eyesight, Xu Cun nodded secretly!

but--

Xu Cun didn't say anything immediately.

It wasn't until Xu Cun read through all the scripts brought by Jeffery before he said: DreamWorks can provide the 15 million dollars that Ghostbusters lacks, but we want all the Ghostbusters Copyright, um... at least half of the rights to Ghostbusters. All copyrights.

Then, Xu Cun took out another script from the seven or eight scripts, and said: Out of Africa actually combined Out of Africa, Shadows on the Grass, Isaac Danson, a novelist My Life and The Silence Will Be Broken are adapted together, which is a bit interesting... How much does it cost to produce?

Jeffrey said: At least 30 million. I suggest you, boss, think carefully about it—Out of Africa ​​is a documentary after all, and American G people don't like documentaries.

Xu Cun looked at Jeffrey and asked, Then why did you show me the script of Out of Africa?

Jeffrey shrugged: Well, I admit, I was attracted by the plot of Out of Africa.

Xu Cun smiled and said, Since it can attract you, Jeffrey, then Out of Africa ​​is worth our investment.

Jeffrey said: I think I have the obligation to remind you that DreamWorks (US G branch) does not have the funds to invest in these three films at the same time, and our working capital is only enough to invest in one film.

Xu Cungu said helplessly: Then you can choose one, and the other two are my personal investments, and they will be handled according to the previous rules.

(DreamWorks (US G branch) has 10% of Jeffrey's shares, so the results of Xu Cun's personal investment and DreamWorks (US G branch) investment are different——Movies invested by Xu Cun All the money earned belongs to Xu Cun, and Xu Cun only needs to pay DreamWorks (US G branch) some affiliated management fees according to the market price. And the money earned from the films invested by DreamWorks (US G branch) Xu Cun only owns 90% of it, Jeffrey owns 10%, and Xu Cun does not need to pay the affiliate management fee.)

Without even thinking about it, Jeffery said, I choose Little Goblins.—Obviously, Jeffery has long been optimistic about Little Goblins.

Michael J. Fox, who played Back to the Future star Marty, has signed on to star in Birth of a Family. The producers of Birth of the Family felt that Fox was crucial to the success of the series, so they refused to let Michael J. Fox play the leading role in Back to the Future, especially after more than half of Back to the Future The shots had to be shot in Xiangjiang. Later, Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis repeatedly discussed with the producer of The Birth of the Family before they won Michael J. Fox to join Back to the Future, but the premise is that the Back to the Future The Birth of a Family.

In this regard, Xu Cun originally wanted to replace Michael J. Fox willfully, but Marty played by Michael J. Fox really impressed Xu Cun, and Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis kept lobbying Xu Cun said that Michael J. Fox must be the best candidate for Marty, and Xu Cun pinched his nose and agreed to let Michael J. Fox join Back to the Future.

Claudia Wells, who plays Marty's girlfriend Jennifer, was born in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and came to the United States after graduation-she is a beautiful G girl who grew up in Asia.

Prior to this, Slaudia had only played a secondary role in two American dramas and one TV show, and had never played an important role.

The reason why such an inexperienced Claudia was able to get the role of Jennifer was all because of Xu Cun's support.

That's right, the big pervert Xu Cun has taken a fancy to Claudia, an American girl, again this time.
