Chapter 113 Cameo [Saving Private Ryan]

Is the chance great?
You shouldn't ask me this, but you should go and see [Godfather 1], the old godfather's feelings for the family and heirs.

That's basically the attitude of Francis Coppola towards his nephew Nicolas Cage.

"So -- such a project directed by me, with James Cameron, Spielberg, George Lucas, Roland Emmerich, Luc Besson, Francis Coppola.

And I will personally bring [-] million US dollars into the project of the group.

How much do you think is worth the investment?

How many people are willing to invest? "

Zhang Nan smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Alan Toby with slightly narrowed eyes, his eyes were not sharp.

But Ellen Toby was so stressed by this look, finally took a few deep breaths, solemnly stretched out two fingers, and then changed again, "I am willing to pay 2 million, no, 3 million US dollars .”

A year later, New Line will invest [-] million U.S. dollars for the trilogy project based on the adaptation of the "Lord of the Rings" novel.

Now that Xinxian said it would spend [-] million yuan, it is definitely not bragging.

And hearing Alan Toby's very face-saving answer, Zhang Nan knew that he was making the right move.

With the [-] million U.S. dollars from New Line Cinema, plus his own [-] million U.S. dollars.

For the remaining [-] million US dollars gap, there are so many giants in Hollywood, no matter who you look for, you can make up for it.

But Zhang Nan will not immediately agree to the investment amount of Allen Toby.

Because the reason why he first went to New Line Films to discuss this new project in detail, instead of going to Columbia, who had already let Old Luke reveal some news about the new project.

The purpose is just to let New Line Cinema act as the catfish in the catfish effect in this project, so that Hollywood giants will actively invest.

Rather than really wanting New Line Cinema to become the largest investor in this project.

In that case, he worked so hard to set up such a stall, but it can be regarded as making wedding dresses for Xinxian.

"Alan, the number you gave is very sincere. I also know that this is the greatest sincerity and ability you can show, but it has not met my expectations. But even if it meets my expectations, I will not Will agree."

Zhang Nan declined with a smile, then stretched out a finger, and said, "I can only give you an investment share of [-] million US dollars at most, and it's just a verbal promise now. When the project starts, I'm not sure I can give it to you." How much share do you keep. But I can give you one guarantee, that is, this project will never leave New Line Cinema behind.”

Hearing Zhang Nan's words, Alan Toby's whole momentum collapsed.

After being in Hollywood for so many years, I still can't understand the meaning of Zhang Nan's words.

At this time, Allen Toby understood Zhang Nan's operation.

This time Zhang Nan asked him to meet and discuss with him the investment of the new project, which cannot be said to be false.

But it is definitely not Zhang Nan's main purpose.

Zhang Nan's main purpose is probably to let him and New Line Pictures act as the catfish in the catfish effect in this project, so that other Hollywood giants will readily pay for it.

But things have come to this, and this project, he is really moved.

So... this catfish should be taken as well.

But——he also wanted to figure out what Zhang Nan's expected production cost for this project was.

"So, what is the production cost of this project?" Alan Toby asked.

Zhang Nan smiled, stretched out a hand, and said lightly, "[-] million!"

"hiss--"

Ellen Toby took another sharp breath.
-
[Saving Private Ryan] crew.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Da da da!!"

"Whoosh whoosh!!!"

On a stretch of sand.

All kinds of explosive points buried in advance were continuously detonated, showing a fierce battle scene in front of the camera.

Zhang Nan, who was dressed like cannon fodder, shuttled through the war scene like a headless chicken.

Then the cannon fodder played by Zhang Nan found a comrade who was injured and fell to the ground according to the script, and then Zhang Nan dragged his comrade's thigh and ran towards the military doctor.

During the process, the camera was focused on Zhang Nan's body, and the simulated gunfire at the explosion point continued to explode and blast out dust and gunpowder smoke. Together with the flying limbs and falling postures of the surrounding special agents, the atmosphere was extremely dangerous.

And when Zhang Nan finally dragged his comrade-in-arms to the military doctor.

Turning around, I realized that the comrade-in-arms only had one leg left.

This kind of injury is obviously no longer a military doctor, and there is a way to treat it.

I have to go to God to see if I can do a little help in reincarnation, and it may be faster to get better by joining a team.

Then Zhang Nan was stunned, the blood pack on the helmet on his head exploded, and the whole person fell down.

"click~"

Spielberg, sitting behind the monitor, with a small speaker, announces that the sequence is over.

Zhang Nan also got up from the ground.

After negotiating an investment of [-] million U.S. dollars with Alan Toby, the president of New Line Pictures, Zhang Nan originally planned to go directly to Columbia to discuss.

But the crew of "Saving Private Ryan" who can't stand Spielberg's side is about to wrap up.

Zhang Nan could only let go of Columbia and go to the crew of "Saving Private Ryan" first.

But Zhang Nan didn't expect that his one-day one-day salary of one million US dollars cameo performance was actually the opening scene of the movie "Saving Private Ryan", which shows the cruelty of war.

To be honest, the title of the turning point battle of World War II in the future was transferred from the Battle of Stalingrad to the Normandy landing on the Internet.

In addition to the North American propaganda offensive, the beginning of this "Saving Private Ryan" also contributed a lot.

It was really exciting to shoot.

"Steven, is this scene over?" Zhang Nan moved closer to Spielberg and asked Spielberg who was watching the scene just now.

Spielberg looked at it carefully several times before he raised his head and said, "Zhang, your $100 million salary is too easy to earn."

The meaning of these words is obvious, Zhang Nan's scene is over, and at the same time it is over.

"Steven, you can't say that. Do you know how much the crew asked me to be a guest star after [Titanic]?" Zhang Nan retorted jokingly.

[Titanic] came out with a shocking box office of more than one billion.

The one who benefited the most is naturally director James Cameron.

The cafe took off directly on the spot.

From a level lower than Spielberg and George Lukes, he jumped to a level higher than the two.

The second is the hero Xiao Lizi.

Directly from the traffic niche in North America, he became a world-class idol superstar.

To give a vivid example, it is to Tom and Will in Hollywood, just like Liu Yifei in the Mainland in [-] is to Sidan Shuangbing, and it is even worse.

Then came Zhang Nan.

Once again, he proved that his reputation as a box office mascot was not built.

All the crews in Hollywood, wanting to take advantage of Zhang Nan's luck, have gone crazy.

The high price of 100 million US dollars in a single day is already a thing of the past.

Now the Hollywood production crews offer Zhang Nan a minimum price of 300 million US dollars a time.

And there is no need to go to the scene, just cut out the picture.
