Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Thinking of this, Gu Ming's actions in writing the script sped up a lot.

Gu Ming had only watched this film before he was reborn. He had watched it dozens of times and filmed it, which was equivalent to writing a script based on the answers.

It's not as lengthy as when other people wrote the script, and even when it was shot, you had to make choices and other things, it was just based on the finished film.

The speed is naturally very fast.

Even though he still had to worry about the Olympics, Gu Ming only had time at night. It took him five days to finish the script.

As for project planning documents commonly used in Hollywood, Gu Ming was too lazy to write them.

That's what directors who need to attract investment need to write.

Show your name to me, Gu Ming, and make money.

People who want to invest in their own movies can line up from Los Angeles to San Francisco.

Writing this is a waste of time.

You like to vote or not.

As for the rest of the shots, Gu Ming decided to go to Los Angeles and paint again.

By the way, allocate the early things, and then you don’t have to do it yourself.

This kind of movie is said to be a superhero movie, but at its heart it is actually a crime movie.

There aren't that many special effects shots or big scenes, and it doesn't require much investment. Fifty million would be a big deal.

There wasn’t much difficulty in filming, it was mainly about the actors’ performances.

Just go out and take some pictures yourself, and just keep a little eye on it in post-production and you'll be fine.

Of course, the reason why I went to Los Angeles was because Big Dipper was there, so the filming location of this film definitely couldn’t be Los Angeles.

It can only be New York, the prototype of the famous crime city Gotham.

……

Come to the office of Beidou Star Entertainment.

A phone call called Sophia over, and Gu Ming pointed to the script in front of him, "My new film."

"You're going to make a new movie again? That's great!"

Sophia immediately took the script over.

She was completely convinced by Gu Ming and would never give in at all.

"Casino Royale", which has been released for nearly two months, is still a few million short of 007 million U.S. dollars at the North American box office, but it can be said to be a certainty that it will break million U.S. dollars. Sony will buy it even if it buys the box office. Two hundred million.

The key is that the overseas box office of this film is also quite good.

The countries where it has been released now add up to 300 million US dollars.

Calculating according to the practice of other Hollywood blockbusters, after it is released in most countries, the global box office of this film is likely to hit the level of 700 million US dollars.

This will be the highest-grossing 007 movie in history!

Do not!

Strictly speaking, Casino Royale is now the highest-grossing 007 movie.

If it can really reach 7 million, judging from last year's global box office rankings, it will not be a problem to enter the top five of the year.

In addition, there is also "Night at the Museum", which he wrote and acted as the script. The North American box office is also very likely to exceed 270 million!

Two box-office hits are related to the man in front of them.

This made him unable to suppress his curiosity. In order to show his curiosity about Gu Mingxin's script, she immediately flipped through the script and started reading it.

"joker?"

"You want to make a superhero movie based on the Joker license you obtained from Warner?"

Sophia was shocked when she saw the title of the film.

No way?

Big Hollywood directors don't always like superhero movies.

That is to say, after filming "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Li Eucalyptus, who wanted to establish a firm foothold in Hollywood, regarded this kind of movie as a favorite.

If the film goes well, it’s because of my superhero’s influence, but if it goes poorly, it’s because of the rubbish director who ruined my youth.

Who wants to get involved with this!

Moreover, for a well-known director to make a superhero movie, it is somewhat low-key.

This is definitely not a subject that a rising director should choose. Of course, seeing that Gu Ming didn't explain, she stopped asking and looked quietly.

After reading it, she secretly exhaled.

This is not a superhero movie!

It's clearly a crime film, and it even has some artistic qualities.

"Boss, this film is really suitable for you. I think it will definitely be a success!"

"Go get my crew together."

"It is estimated that the investment of 60 million will definitely be enough. You can discuss my remuneration with other shareholders. My bottom line is 20 plus 15 North American box office shares."

Now his shareholding in Beidou Star Entertainment is only half.

Then everything has to be based on market prices.

And based on his performance in "007", this offer is definitely very reasonable.

"I understand, we must make them agree to this offer."

"Also, find the discs of the movies that Joaquin Phoenix has acted in the past three years and let me take a look." The first thing Gu Ming thought of was the actor from his previous life.

But now we still have to see whether he is suitable or not.

"Forehead."

Sophia responded and left.

After a while, she asked her assistant to buy the discs and came to Gu Ming's office in person and handed a total of six discs to Gu Ming.

They are "Hotel Rwanda", "Mysterious Village", "Ladder 49", "Walking with the Song", "Let's Have the Night", and "Road to Impact".

"Huh! You've done a lot of acting!"

While Gu Ming was drawing the shots, he looked at the works of this clown actor in his previous life in recent years.

The more I look at it, the more inappropriate it becomes.

There aren’t enough wrinkles on your face, brother!

It's very difficult for me to do this.

But it's normal to think about it. In his previous life, he was forty-five when he was filming the clown, but this year he is only thirty-four, so he is a young man.

After watching all the discs, Gu Ming threw away the idea of ​​using him. No matter how suitable it was in the previous life, it was not suitable in this life.

I need someone who is between forty and no more than fifty-five years old, has wrinkles on the face to show shadows, and has excellent acting skills.

It saves me that I have to train the protagonist’s acting skills when the time comes.

"The acting guy."

"White actors of this age..."

Gu Ming tapped his fingers on the table subconsciously, and a name appeared in his mind.

Daniel Day Lewis.

Born in 57, he successfully won the Oscar in 90 for his outstanding performance in "My Left Foot".

Many subsequent films also featured impressive acting skills.

If I remember correctly, he will win the best actor award again in 2008 at the Oscars for "There Will Be Blood".

In his previous life, he successfully achieved the triple crown of Oscar winner, becoming the first actor in history to achieve this achievement.

"Uh, just him."

Such a person will definitely not be a drag on his acting skills.

As for box office appeal and so on.

This year he wants to win the Oscar for Best Actor, which is a bit of a gimmick. Besides, doesn’t he still have himself?

His box office appeal is also not low.

However, Gu Ming decided on him, but he couldn't decide immediately. This person is very picky about his roles.

"Maybe I have to take action myself!" (End of Chapter)
