Chapter 1148 (2/2)
Spielberg knows that Li Mu is not short of money. Tens of millions of dollars or even 100 million dollars are nothing to him. What's more, Li Mu's appeal in China is very strong. A small-cost love film can break through 400 million box office and keep rising. If such a big production is promoted, it will surely get higher box office returns.And his influence in Hollywood is not vegetarian. Such a movie integrating Chinese and American elements will certainly attract the attention of American audiences. Moreover, if Hollywood companies distribute overseas, not only in North America, but also in other countries, the box office will be guaranteed.
In this way, Li Mu is responsible for the release and box office of China, DreamWorks is responsible for the release and box office of North America and other countries. As long as everyone performs their duties, they can guarantee at least 300 million US dollars of global total box office.
What's more, Li Mu's YY has become a global super Internet product. Its number of users, influence and information delivery ability are surprisingly strong around the world. With it, the global box office can be further improved. Therefore, even if the film really needs to spend a total budget of 100 million dollars, it can definitely earn without loss.
Spielberg thought about money, while Li Mu thought about the image of the country and the nation in the world.
He knew that if he invested tens of millions of dollars and asked the Hollywood team to make a domestic anti Japanese War campaign, as long as the budget was in place, he would be able to make the most of those classic campaigns, and also be able to make the heroic and tragic Chinese people's resistance to RB fascist aggression in those years. Moreover, such a movie might not be more than Saving Private Ryan and Si The battle of Stalingrad, the tiger and tiger, or the battle of the chainsaw ridge are not good.
But the most critical problem is that Li Mu's basic goal is to make some commercial films that the whole world can accept and like about the Anti Japanese war in China. The key point is to make the whole world accept and commercialize absolutely. At present, the global film industry can only be accepted by the whole world by Hollywood, so Li Mu's films must be Hollywood elements have to be brought in.
From the same business point of view, Spielberg chose such a story with the actual participation of Americans. Otherwise, if it's all Chinese's own story, Hollywood elements can't be intuitively highlighted, or can't break through the world.
Moreover, the commercialization of Hollywood is really out of reach, which can be seen from Spielberg. He purposely set the characters of this movie script in such a sharp contrast. In fact, it is for the sake of commercialization. Whether it is background selection, plot design or love story, it is very commercialized, full of Hollywood characteristics Point.
If this movie is made, first of all, for westerners, they will never be excluded. For Americans, this is the story of Americans helping other people get freedom and liberation overseas, which can cater to their world police psychology. Moreover, there are so many Hollywood stars and famous directors, which will have a strong influence on the Chinese people.
< br Needless to say, no one dares to think about the 100 million dollar budget Chinese Anti Japanese war movie in 2020. Li Mu has realized it, which will probably make the whole country full of blood;
for people in other countries, except Rb, people in other countries don't need to think about so much. Hollywood + Spielberg + Tom Hanks + Leonardo DiCaprio + 100 million The dollar budget is enough to get them into the cinema.
Film and television works have a strong ability to instill values, which is the ultimate means to truly moisten things silently. If this film achieves commercial success in the world, it will surely achieve deeper success.
Li Mu wants to let the world know the real Chinese history, the real Chinese people and the Chinese culture and spirit through this movie.
Spielberg didn't expect Li Mu to be so straightforward. He could make decisions in less than $100 million. Even a famous director, he had never met such generous and cost free investors. For him, this is a good chance. Because of the budget, he can make the movie as perfect and realize his own as possible All ambitions.
So Spielberg was very excited and said, ”Mr. Li, please give me a name for this movie.”
Li Mu shook his head and said with a smile: ”I can think of the best Chinese name is Zhuang Lingyun, but it has been occupied by your top gun. Although I think this movie is more suitable for the four characters of Zhuang Lingyun than top gun, I don't want to crash with that kind of idol movie. If you have no opinion, I suggest Flying Tigers under the most simple name. As for English name, also use literal Name: Flying Tigers! ”
Spielberg immediately said, ”no problem! That's the name! Flying-Tigers!”
”Steven, come up with a script and a detailed plan as soon as possible. We need to get this movie moving as soon as possible,” Li chuckled
Spielberg was also very excited, nodded and said: ”please rest assured, I will be as soon as possible!”
On the other hand, elder martial brother Liu promised us $100 million as soon as he heard Li Mukai's words. He couldn't help but remind him in a low voice: ”Li Mu, the story is really a good story, but you still have to think about it. The story directed by Spielberg mainly revolves around the American Flying Tigers and the Chinese flying tigers. But the Chinese flying tigers in those days were all the teams of the GM party. The story structure of this movie Without the plot of our party's resistance to the Japanese army, would it be met with some resistance? ”Li Mu shook his head and said seriously, ”elder martial brother Liu, you are a little bit of a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart.”
Elder martial brother Liu's eyes were wide and his face was puzzled.
Li Mu said, ”have you seen” blood war tez district ”? It's one of the most classic war movies in China. It was made in 1985, but it's all about the story of the GM Party's army fighting against the Japanese army in tez district. This is the national history, and it's all the historical facts of the Chinese people's resistance to the RB invaders. ”
Elder martial brother Liu blushed in an instant and said with embarrassment: ”I remember that you said so. I've seen the blood war tez area many times. It's really good Blame me, blame me... ”
