If you want to sell your "Qianyuan" mobile phone with "Baidu earth" in the United States, you can't rely on your successful advertising experience in Japan, South Korea and other countries. Different countries, different nationalities, different skin colors, different cultures, if the advertisement suitable for oriental people is copied to Westerners, it will only encounter a painful failure. Therefore, if you want to impress Westerners, you must make ads that are in line with their aesthetic views to impress them.
Originally, Lin Feng wanted to invite Spielberg to shoot, but now Spielberg is shooting the "hero" series. Out of confidence in the "hero", Spielberg finished the script of the first season of "hero" given by Lin Feng at one time. Therefore, there is no time to shoot such ads at present. This has made Lin Feng quite tangled. After all, it is the hope that Lin Feng can compete with Google. Although there is an "artificial intelligence program" now, this program is only in the initial stage of use, and its real power can only be highlighted in the future. At this stage, there is no better weapon than Baidu earth to fight against Google. When "Baidu earth" is temporarily frozen by the Supreme Court of California, "Qianyuan", which binds "Baidu earth", is Lin Feng's biggest reliance.
Now, James Cameron has come to the door on his own initiative. If this Hollywood gold medal director doesn't make much use of it, he will be very sorry for himself.
Then, at the appointed time, Lin Feng received James Cameron's gold medal director and accompanying Spielberg in Avril's "Neverland".
"Mr. Cameron, I've heard so much about you. It's a great honor to see you today." Lin Feng warmly greets James Cameron.
"Mr. Lin, your reputation is well known all over the world. It's amazing that you did that at the Oscars." James Cameron sighed.
Since the establishment of "Oscar" in ancient times, no one has dared to make such a fuss at the "Oscar" award ceremony. Although it is not that no actor or director has been wronged in the past, most of them swallow their breath. After all, if you want to be in this business, you can't offend people like the "Oscar" Organizing Committee. But Lin Feng didn't care. If he offended, he offended. And in front of hundreds of millions of audiences around the world, James Cameron really admired his courage.
"Well, Mr. Cameron, in that case, aren't you afraid to be implicated in contacting me?" Lin Feng took the opportunity to inquire.
Although Spielberg suggested that James Cameron should come to find himself this time for the legendary avatar, Lin Feng still wanted to confirm what attitude James Cameron held towards his bad relationship with Oscar. If you look for "Oscar" in the future, which side will James Cameron stand on!
James Cameron is also a mature man. How can he not understand the meaning of Lin Feng's words. He naturally knows that Lin Feng hopes to embarrass the "Oscar" by his name or potential. However, like Spielberg, he is a famous figure in Hollywood. Their worries are not as big as Lin Feng's imagination. No matter what they do, they only depend on their personal likes and dislikes and never care about other people's opinions. Of course, it doesn't mean that they are willing to be shot by Lin Feng.
"Ha ha, Mr. Lin, I'm just a director. The director's duty is to make a good film. As for the rest, it's none of my business James Cameron said with a smile.
Lin Feng's eyes brightened when he heard the words. James Cameron's words have two meanings. First, on behalf of James Cameron, he will never intervene in the dispute between Lin Feng and the "Oscar" Organizing Committee; As for the second meaning, if Lin Feng can help him make a good movie, he doesn't mind being used by Lin Feng. Of course, there is a premise, that is, whether Lin Feng can help him make a good film.
But obviously, Lin Feng has the ability to help him. Otherwise, he would not have contacted Lin Feng through Spielberg.
"Mr. Cameron, what can I do for you?" Lin Feng added a cup of coffee to James Cameron and put the topic directly into the main topic.
"Since Mr. Lin is pleasant, I'm not polite. I have a script carefully planned for several years in my hand, but this script not only needs huge funds, but also has some small technical problems, and Mr. Lin can help me solve these two problems! " James Cameron said very sincerely.
When it comes to movies, James Cameron seems to be a different person, with a pious and fanatical face. Maybe he was born for movies.
At the moment, Lin Feng is sure that the script James Cameron said is Avatar. Although Lin Feng didn't know how much "Avatar" would sell in the future, it was a movie that was concerned about all over the world at that time, and the box office was absolutely not so bad. What's more, I'm falling out with "Oscar" now, and I want to revenge "Oscar", but I can't do without people like James Cameron.
"Mr. Cameron, what's the script you're talking about? Can I have the privilege of seeing it? " Lin Feng pretended to be very curious.
James Cameron gives Lin Feng the script he has already prepared with a smile.
Lin Feng took the script from James Cameron very devoutly. Although Lin Feng himself is only for entertainment, he doesn't think it is sacred. Most of the so-called sacredness is added artificially, just hoping that others will pay more attention to it. But in the face of the old man James Cameron, since he attaches so much importance to the script that may be "Avatar", it doesn't hurt that Lin Feng is devout at all. Anyway, piety doesn't need money.
On one side, Spielberg looks at the script in Lin Feng's hand, and his eyes are yearning. Spielberg himself is also curious about the script that James Cameron never forgets. But he is different from Lin Feng. Like James Cameron, he is both a director and a famous Hollywood director. Therefore, in order to avoid suspicion, he must not read the script in the hands of James Cameron. Therefore, we can only look envious.
Lin Feng took over the script and looked at it carefully. It turned out to be avatar. Then, open the script, "Avatar" that wonderful world suddenly showed in front of Lin Feng, at first sight, it can be said that shocking, moved. Although Lin Feng knew about the movie "Avatar", before Lin Feng's rebirth, "Avatar" only heard its voice, not its shadow. Lin Feng also knows that "Avatar" is a science fiction film, the rest do not know.
Now, after reading the script in James Cameron's hands, I just found that this movie Avatar is really a rare good movie. It's a big play of alien love. People on earth and people on Pandora fall in love, and it's xxoo. Lin Fengzhen admires the imagination in James Cameron's mind. I really don't know what he thought, he would think of earth people and aliens to do that, and earth people would like to become aliens. You know, in the script description of "Avatar", the "Navi" people on Pandora's planet are all blue. I really don't know how the protagonist is affected.
Pervert—— Lin Feng sighed heartily.
"Mr. Lin, how do you feel about the play?" Although James Cameron has great confidence in Avatar, he still hopes to get approval from others. It's not that James Cameron doesn't have self-confidence, but that when a person has a very good thing, he instinctively wants to show off and show off, so as to get the approval of others.
And this "Avatar" script is James Cameron's first time to share with others. The excitement can be imagined.
Er... Hearing this, Lin Feng was shocked. You can't let Lin Feng directly say that this play is abnormal. The hero is willing to become an alien with very long limbs and a blue tail to have sex with aliens. It's really abnormal! Then James Cameron will turn over.
What's more, seeing that James Cameron is so looking forward to the admiration of others, it's not easy for Lin Feng to attack the old man.
"Mr. Cameron, I think it's a good play. It can tell us that even if we have strong force, we should not invade others. The world needs peace, and different races can coexist peacefully. " Lin Feng thought for a while and gave some reasons.
James Cameron's eyes sparkled when he heard this. Although what Lin Feng said is only one aspect of this "Avatar", it has made James Cameron quite satisfied. Since Lin Feng appreciates avatar so much, James Cameron naturally wants to strike while the iron is hot.
"Mr. Lin, since you enjoy this avatar so much and your" second entertainment "is also a film entertainment company, I wonder if you are willing to invest in this avatar?" James Cameron is looking forward to asking.
Lin Feng nodded. If you let James Cameron come, you will definitely invest. Besides, this "Avatar" was so prosperous at that time, it should have a good box office.
"Mr. Cameron, how much money do you need?" Lin Feng asked at will.
"Not much, 500 million is enough!" James Cameron said with a smile.
what! 500 million dollars—— When Lin Fengwen heard the words, he took a cool breath. It costs 500 million dollars to make a movie? Did you hear me right—— Lin Feng was shocked. You know, James - Cameron gently spit out these words, really let Lin Feng startled.
Not to mention that Lin Feng was shocked, the Hollywood director Spielberg was also shocked. He has made so many films, but none of them cost $500 million. It's really shocking.
"Mr. Cameron, I remember that the most expensive movie to invest right now is the 250 million dollars you used to make Titanic! This time, it costs 500 million dollars, which is doubled. Am I right? Are you going to build a Pandora planet Lin Feng had to ask James Cameron to confirm.
Although Lin Feng is rich and the richest man in the world, most of his funds are stocks, not cash. Unless Lin Feng sells all his shares, he will have tens of billions of dollars in cash. But unless he is a fool, no one will want to sell all his shares and be a man with huge cash. You know, money will depreciate, but some companies will increase in value. Therefore, it's a bit hard for Lin Feng to spend 500 million dollars at a time. Although Lin Feng worked hard, there was no problem. But it's a bit too much.
Spielberg nodded to one side and agreed with Lin Feng. 500 million dollars for a movie, which is absolutely beyond Spielberg's imagination. But if you look at James Cameron, it seems that the films he has made in recent years are expensive, but the box office is also very good. The Hollywood director, who is as famous as himself, seems to be gradually moving towards big investment and big return.
James Cameron also understands Lin Feng's surprise. The budget for this movie is 500 million dollars, which is really shocking. James Cameron has also been looking for some investors, but as soon as they heard that the film would cost $500 million, they immediately backed out. This is also the reason why James Cameron has been writing and revising the script of avatar. No one dares to invest!
Although Titanic invested 250 million US dollars and made 1.8 billion US dollars, the investors did not dare to guarantee that James Cameron would make 3.6 billion US dollars by investing 500 million US dollars this time. You know, no matter how famous the director is, there will be times of bad luck or Waterloo. If this film encounters Waterloo, it's not bad for investors!
"Mr. Lin, there are two reasons why this avatar needs so much money. One is the special effects in the film, which will be the most special effects film in history; Second, I plan to make it into a 3D movie. If I want to make it into a 3D movie, the cost is much higher than that of ordinary movies. However, only when it is made into a 3D film can the world of avatar be fully displayed. Mr. Lin, I believe this "Avatar" will definitely get an absolutely good box office James Cameron said confidently.
Lin Feng looks at James Cameron with a confident face. He is a little weak in heart. Now they are a little short of money. In order to ensure the normal flow, the two banks have no extra funds to provide to Lin Feng after they acquired the shares of Baidu portal. After all, neither the second bank nor the Standard Bank of South Africa are completely private banks of Lin Feng. They also have their own inherent customer groups, It is impossible to abandon those customers completely for the sake of Lin Feng, which is not good for the development of the bank. Therefore, it is a bit difficult for Lin Feng to suddenly spend $500 million now.
What's more, Lin Feng really doesn't know whether this avatar will be a big hit in the future. If it doesn't sell, it's a loss. After thinking about it, Lin Feng looks at Spielberg, hoping that he can give himself an opinion.
Spielberg naturally received Lin Feng's eyes, but he is not sure at the moment how far this "Avatar" can reach. After all, he didn't even read the script at the moment, so he couldn't judge. Unless he's shown the script, maybe he can infer something. However, his identity is absolutely not to see the script of "Avatar", unless "Avatar" has officially started shooting.
After thinking about it, Spielberg shook his head slightly, indicating that he could not give Lin Feng any advice. This matter can only be solved by Lin Feng himself.
Lin Feng had a headache. After thinking about it, I finally decided to invest. It's only $500 million. If you lose it, you'll lose it. Besides, before his rebirth, "Avatar" was legendary. Although there were many films that were not popular, Lin Feng didn't believe that he would be so unlucky.
"Mr. Cameron, 500 million dollars is absolutely no problem for me. I have only one small request Lin Feng said with a smile.
When James Cameron heard that Lin Feng was willing to invest, he was immediately pleased. However, hearing that Lin Feng still had a request, his brow suddenly wrinkled slightly. He just doesn't like people telling him what to do when he makes movies. At that time, in order to get rid of the future soldier in his mind, he sold the script to the producer for $1. And Lin Feng asked at the moment, James Cameron naturally worried about whether Lin Feng would intervene in the shooting.
"Well, Mr. Cameron, I will never get involved in the shooting. Since you are a director, you has the final say from the beginning of the investment to the end. Lin Feng saw at a glance that James Cameron had no cover up at all, and quickly explained.
James Cameron nodded. Wait for Lin Feng.
"Ha ha, my request is very simple. I just hope that you can see the figures of Li Zhiyou and Lin Zhihui in your movies. You don't need to be the leading role, just be a supporting role. Anyway, there have to be two. " Lin Feng pointed to Li Zhiyou and said.
Li Zhiyou, who is accompanying the wives of James Cameron and Spielberg, is stunned. He did not expect that Lin Feng would suddenly bring the topic to himself and play a role in this $500 million blockbuster. You know, this is a Hollywood movie. Maybe it will be a global blockbuster in the future. Although it won't be the leading role, it's very exciting to have a role in it.
James Cameron looks at Li Zhiyou and nods. Li Zhiyou's appearance is good. Anyway, the world of avatar is the future world. The earth has been unified for a long time. It's good to have an Asian. Instead, it can attract Asian audiences.
See James - Cameron nodded, Lin Feng a smile. At the beginning, I boasted that I wanted to make three films in Korea in five years. This year is the third year, so I can't delay any longer. At present, Huang Meixi takes his baby Lin Youxi wholeheartedly, so he can only hold Li Zhiyou and Lin Huihui for the time being. There is no doubt that it is a shortcut to play a role in Hollywood blockbusters( To be continued, if you want to know the future, please log in www.qidian.com , more chapters, support authors, support legitimate reading!)
