Meiyu: I don’t care about the cost when making movies

Chapter 143 Clingy Amanda
And even if the production of "The Bourne Supremacy" is completed and he gets the 1.68 million system funds, he will not be able to invest in so many projects at the same time. After all, "Resident Evil", "Mean Girls", "The Rescue" and "The Notebook" and "League of Assassins" also require large sums of money.

The most important thing is that he also plans to acquire Industrial Light and Magic!

At present, Serra has been in contact with Lucasfilm again. According to the evaluation made by professional organizations, Industrial Light and Magic is currently worth almost US$1 million, and has a good upward momentum.

If he wants to acquire Industrial Light and Magic, he will have to pay at least a 20% premium, which is 1.2 million.So after thinking about it, he reluctantly put other projects on hold for the time being and was only prepared to invest in "Spider-Man 1".

However, without the right to choose the heroine, just 24% of the priority box office share cannot satisfy his appetite.

So after deciding to invest, he immediately contacted Avi Arad and asked him to lead the Marvel team to join Serra's negotiating team and start negotiations with Sony Columbia.

Next, after a week of negotiations.

Hemera Pictures finally invested US$3000 million and obtained a 21% priority box office share, as well as priority investment rights in subsequent series sequels, and the most important shared copyright of Spider-Man.

This means that Hemera Pictures can now shoot its own Spider-Man movies and directly use the Spider-Man character in other movies.

When Wayne received a call from Sierra on the set of "Mean Girls" and learned the good news, he couldn't help but clenched his fists with joy.

Not to mention the box office returns, just by being able to get the shared copyright of Spider-Man at such a small price, he has made a lot of money, right?

When "Spider-Man 1" is released, let alone 3000 million, even if it raises the price tenfold and spends 3 million US dollars, Sony may not sell it.

Afraid that Sony Columbia would regret it, Wayne withstood the financial pressure and made the first payment of US$1000 million that day.

The remaining 2000 million will be divided into two parts and will be paid when the filming progress reaches 60% and 90%, but there is no need to pay now.

But even so, his system funds are almost at the bottom.

【Name: Wayne】

[Remaining film and television investment funds: 770 million]

[Film and television projects currently in progress:]

[The Bourne Supremacy 1: The production budget was 5600 million, and 5100 million has been invested so far]

[Resident Evil 1 and 2: The production budget was 6500 million, and 3310 million has been invested so far]

[Mean Girls: The production budget is 2000 million, and 870 has been invested so far]

[Hurricane Rescue: The production budget is 3500 million, and 560 million has been invested so far]

[Arhat Eleven (18%): Estimated investment of 1500 million, currently 700 million has been invested]

[Pirates of the Caribbean (16%): Estimated investment of 2000 million, currently 0 invested]

[Spider-Man 1 (22%): Estimated investment of 3000 million, currently 1000 million has been invested]

Taking advantage of a break in filming, Wayne opened the system panel to check, and then couldn't help but frown when he looked at the only 770 million US dollars left.

To be honest, at this moment he wanted to give back the first $150 million he received from "Mean Girls."

If he wants to get a triple refund of the $5600 million he received on "The Bourne Supremacy," he needs to pay the remaining $500 million in remuneration to the director and actors before production is completed.

So in fact, the remaining funds are only 270 million.According to the progress given by Doug Liman, "The Bourne Supremacy" will take about 5 days to complete.

Although a contract has been signed for "Pirates of the Caribbean", because it is still early to start filming, the agreement is to wait until all shares are raised before payment is made.

The audition time for "Hurricane Rescue" is currently scheduled for early March, so no new investment is needed for the time being.

But even if only the filming costs of "Mean Girls" and "Resident Evil" are left, the 270 million may not be enough to last for five days!

"Emmm! It seems that the steps are a bit too big and too far-fetched! If it doesn't work, we can only use the company's daily operating funds first."

Wayne muttered in his mind and closed the system panel.

Just at this moment, a sweet and cloying voice suddenly sounded beside him, and then a sweet aroma of chocolate floated into his nose.

"Hey, Wayne, so you're here? These are the cookies I made myself. Do you want to try them?"

Wayne turned around and looked at Amanda, who was holding a box of chocolate chip cookies dotted with cranberries in both hands. He couldn't help but have a look of helplessness on his face.

Although Amanda has reached the legal age at this time, there is no problem even if he eats it, the problem is that his time has been too full recently.

Catherine Zeta Jones and Rachel Weisz, who have experienced his powerful strength, are willing to communicate with him in depth even if they do not give him resources, plus Nicole Kidman, who has finally regained her freedom.

During this time, except for taking care of Charlize Theron and the three women at home, he didn't go there much with the other women.

There is no time to develop new ones.

Even with Keri Russell and Isla Fisher, whom he had previously made appointments with, he squeezed out time to communicate with them in depth in order not to break his promise.

However, Amanda also has a stubborn temper, especially after learning that in the entire "Mean Girls", except Megan, who is not up to the age limit, and has not had in-depth communication with Wayne, the other three have already been Wei. After loving the woman, she refused to give up even more.

It was as if she wanted to taste what others had tasted.

But it's no wonder, because Wayne is so outstanding in terms of appearance, figure and temperament.

Therefore, Amanda ignored other people's looks and opinions, and would come over to talk to Wayne whenever she took a break. Even if Martina, Anne, and Scarlett were right next to Wayne, she had no scruples at all.

And this also made all three of Martina, who was ignored, very unhappy with her.

But judging from their beauty standards, Amanda is indeed very beautiful.

Big eyes, small face, round legs, slender waist, and most importantly, the Jade Rabbit is much bigger than them.

Although they didn't want to admit it, they also felt in their hearts that Amanda would become their sister sooner or later, so they were just unhappy and did not express it directly.

This can only mean that women’s beauty standards are indeed different from men’s.

"Thank you!" Wayne hesitated for a moment, then picked up a chocolate chip cookie and took a bite, then politely praised: "It tastes good."

Only then did Amanda put down the snack box on her finger with satisfaction, and started chatting with him without anything to say.

Fortunately, his cell phone suddenly rang.
