Chapter 1866: release

When he came to his president's office, Xiao Yunhai asked Raul to find Neil Felton, the deputy director of Forrest Gump.
When Xiao Yunhai was filming prison escape, Neil was the assistant director. Later, Neil made a TV series with very good ratings and earned more than 50 million US dollars for the company.
I had already found a script for a movie, and Neil planned to make it. Who knew when Raul wanted to invest, Raul told Forrest Gump about the lack of an assistant director.
Today, Neil Neng has relied on Xiao Yunhai's support. Raul mentioned that he agreed without thinking and became the deputy director of the film.
The set-up of the set, the preparation of props, the purchase of costumes, etc. were all made by Neal according to Xiao Yunhai's intentions.
But these are all costs, not to mention labor costs, the crew will have to pay a lot of rental fees just for the set aside.
After changing to other crews, I must prepare while filming and try to save money, but Xiao Yunhai, as the world's richest man, naturally doesn't care about this little money.
The so-called money can make the ghosts grind, under the temptation of Marvel's powerful funds, everyone's efficiency is very high, less than two weeks, they are ready.
Soon, Neil Felton took a steady step and came to Xiao Yunhai's office.
"Mr. Xiao, you are finally here." Neil said, holding Xiao Yunhai's hand.
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "I'm a little guilty for what I said. Neil, thank you for helping me to support Forrest Gump's booth. I saw the set video you sent me, and I did a very good job. ."
Neil said: "No, I am very honored to be the deputy director of Forrest Gump. This script is by far the best script I have ever seen, and it will definitely be popular all over the world."
Xiao Yunhai said: "Thank you for your compliment. Now let's talk about the actors. Forrest Gump does not need many role actors. Among them, the heroine Jenny is the key, and there is Forrest Gump's good brother Dun Taylor."
Neil said: "We have made a preliminary decision. Of course, with your consent. Jenny is played by our company's actress Lumina, and Deng Taylor is played by Tom Hardy, who has worked with you in Inception, Bab Bruyu"
Except for the actress Lumina and Tom, the other actors Xiao Yunhai have never heard of it. Fortunately, Neil prepared the photos, otherwise Xiao Yunhai's eyes were really blackened.
After Neal finished the introduction, he asked: "Mr. Xiao, would you like to let them try it out?"
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "No. Lumina and Tom's acting skills, I know very well that it is not difficult to win these two roles. As for the other roles in our movie, there are not many roles, which has nothing to do with the overall situation. . Tell them that if their performance does not satisfy me during the filming process, I will replace them at any time. Forrest Gump is very important to me, and I do not allow any flaws to appear."
Neil nodded and said, "Okay."
At 9:30 the next morning, more than 200 media reporters gathered in the conference room of a five-star hotel, waiting for the appearance of the main creator of Forrest Gump.
"What kind of film is Forrest Gump like it's not a commercial film, right"
"Of course not. I heard a student from Marvel Comics say that this is Mr. Xiao’s
A literary film. "
"I heard it too, but I just couldn't believe it."
"What's the matter? Even if Mr. Xiao went to make a cartoon, I wouldn't be surprised. He is all interested in making movies now, and the box office is nothing to him."
"Yes. A rich man with assets of $52,330 billion can still calm down and make a movie. If Mr. Xiao doesn't really like it, I don't believe it if he is killed."
While the reporters were whispering, in the hotel reception room, Xiao Yunhai was chatting with the film creators.
"Mr. Xiao, thank you very much for allowing me to play such an important role as Dun Taylor." As soon as Tom Hardy came in, he thanked Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Mr. Tom, I need to say in advance. If you don’t play this role well, I will change your role immediately. Therefore, you may not be an actor in our crew, but you are only in the inspection period. Except David , And so are others."
The actress Lumina was not happy anymore, and said, "Mr. Xiao, the heroine of me is pending."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "That's right. However, I don't think that the role of Jenny can be hard for you. If you don't play well, it can only show Miss Lumina, you are not serious."
Lumina said helplessly, "Is this a compliment, but why is it so strange to me?"
Everyone laughed.
At ten o'clock exactly, Xiao Yunhai walked into the press conference with the main creative staff.
Seeing a room full of people, Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "It seems that the conference room I was looking for is a bit small. Thank you friends from the journalists for coming. Today is the day when Forrest Gump starts. First, let me introduce the movie. The main creative staff of. Next to me is the deputy director Neil, who was also the deputy director who escaped from prison. He is very capable. The male protagonist David and the female protagonist Lumina are the best talents in Hollywood. Everyone is familiar with them. Now, I won’t talk about it. That’s Tom. Everyone should remember his wonderful performance in Inception. That one is"
After five minutes, Xiao Yunhai introduced all the actors, and soon entered the question and answer session.
"Mr. Xiao, is this Forrest Gump a commercial film or an art film"
"Art film."
"Then why did you shoot an art film? We all know that your commercial film has achieved great success all over the world, and the top two at the box office are films directed by you. In this case, is your sudden transition a bit risky? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "I am a director. Whether it is a commercial film or a literary film, even a documentary, I want to try it. As for whether it is adventure or not, it is obviously not. I am interested in filming, a hobby, and the box office is just a box office. Metrics. What I care more about is what people think of my movies."
"Mr. Xiao, I heard that preparations for this play had already begun before you came to America, and even the set was set up, right?"
Xiao Yunhai pointed to Neil and smiled: "He is the great hero of our crew~EbookFREE.me~ The set of Forrest Gump was made by him. I watched the video and it was very good."
"Then how long do you think will be able to complete this Forrest Gump story, how big the investment will be"
"I will try to finish the auction within two months. As for the investment, there is no upper limit, but it is estimated to be between 300 million and 400 million US dollars."
"Generally speaking, compared with popular commercial films, the box office of literary films is not one and a half stars. Do you think Forrest Gump can achieve the same results as your commercial films?"
Xiao Yunhai was happy and said: "Do you think it is possible? Take Zhu Xian for example. Its global fare is about 60 US dollars on average, and Forrest Gump is transmitting this 2 telegram.
Movies cost 20 dollars at most, and even only ten dollars in China. Even if the number of viewers is three times that of Zhu Xian, the box office still can't match it. So when it comes to literary and artistic films, everyone should not be more than the box office, but should be more than the audience. "
"Then how many people in the world do you think will go to the cinema to watch this Forrest Gump"
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "500 million person-times should be fine."
