Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 697 The Hungry and Thirsty Reporters
Laila, whose eyes were fixed on the big screen, was thinking about other things in her mind.She remembers very clearly that in her previous life, the original version of this movie made a box office of more than 5000 million US dollars at a cost of 7 million.

This is undoubtedly a very beautiful result. If it is compared with other movies, he may really win.It's a pity that Michael's luck is really bad, and he bet on "The Lord of the Rings". You must know that the first Lord of the Rings won more than 8 million box office.

Laila is also aware of this result, so she throws away such a bet that the odds of winning in the eyes of outsiders are slim.

When the box office of "Transformers" comes out, I believe Michael Bay will be in a good mood for a whole year.But it will only be a whole year, because after "The Lord of the Rings" comes out, he will know that there is a kind of person in this world who is the favorite of heaven.Ordinary people should hide and tremble honestly.

Compared with the original version, the film is almost the same. Although the filming time is a little earlier, the special effects processing is still acceptable. After all, the special effects company under Leila is already the most promising one in the industry.

In addition to the work within the company, today's special effects companies will also accept some film cooperation from outside.When other companies are reducing the jobs and positions of special effects artists, this company has become an oasis, and its life is much more nourishing than other companies.

Therefore, many special effects artists hope to come here, at least they don't have to worry about being laid off after finishing the work in hand.Not only them, some animators are also in a similar situation.

Laila can see the future of special effects, so naturally she will not give up on animation. Don't look at her filming outside, in fact, she has already arranged someone to help her with the company's affairs.It was precisely because she was not around and did not reveal any information that the acquisition could be carried out in the dark, and those who wanted to dig it could do so smoothly.

It is believed that in the near future, she will own an animation production company of her own.By then, she'd have a lot of good ideas to put to use.

After the premiere, Leila was caught by the reporters surrounding the door.

After not seeing her for a whole year, how could the hungry reporters let her go so easily?

"Director Moran, you are back to attend the premiere of "Transformers" this time. Are you very optimistic about this movie?"

A reporter who squeezed to the front asked him a question.

Laila also knew that if she didn't satisfy these people today, it would be impossible for her to leave smoothly.She also happened to have some small projects that needed "help" and naturally answered questions very cooperatively.

"Yes. I am very optimistic about this movie. Mr. Michael Bay is a very good director. He has completely shot the effect I want to see. I am very honored to have chosen him to direct."

"Director Moran, since you are so optimistic about this movie, why didn't you choose to shoot it yourself?"

Lyra glanced at the reporter who asked the question, and smiled when she saw the logo on his body.It was a media with which Michael Bay had a good relationship. When the two of them fought against each other, this media had always stood by the other side and spoke for him.It seems that Mr. Bang Bei still has some entanglements about her giving up the directing rights.

"This question is very simple. Although I am a director, it does not mean that I can shoot all types of movies. Every director has his own mature shooting techniques. Some are good at love and some are good at action. Just take me Well, I may be good at some types of movies, but for the parts I am lacking, obviously Mr. Michael can do better. In order to make the movie achieve the best effect, I think it is very important to choose the most suitable director important."

"Then, Director Moran, did you have a high opinion of this movie before it was shot?"

"Of course, the money we invest is not blown by the wind. Every penny needs to be invested in the most correct place. I can't take a hundred or two million dollars and throw it away, can I?"

Leila spoke very carefully, mainly because she wanted to use this question to tell Michael Bay that she signed him because she really liked his director ability, not for any other purpose.

I don't know if what happened last time cast a shadow on this great director. Regarding the matter of her handing over such a script to him, this gentleman seems to be worried that "there will always be troublesome people who want to harm me".

In fact, sometimes she really thinks that after the explosion, she thinks too much. No matter how rich a person is, he won't spend [-] to [-] million U.S. dollars just to punish a defeated subordinate, right?That's why the ancestors of the East left a saying "The heart of a villain measures the belly of a gentleman". If it weren't for his potential, she wouldn't even bother to explain it.

"Director Moran, can you predict the box office of this movie?"

Laila thought for a while: "I watched the movie just now, and I also felt the atmosphere in the theater. I think the audience likes it very much. I believe it will be no problem to break through [-] million. If everyone likes it, it is not impossible to reach [-] million. possible."

[-] million?[-] million?
The reporters were all excited.She knew that as long as this eldest lady appeared, there would be good news to explode.

Not 7000 million, but [-] million!Still dollars!Is such a box office really easy to achieve?According to what she said, she just took a look at the atmosphere of the theater. If this can successfully predict the box office of the movie, what else do professionals need to do?
Michael Bay, who was being interviewed on the other side, looked towards Laila in surprise.He didn't expect that she would watch his movies so highly.After the filming was completed, he also felt that the film he made this time could get a very high box office.But this high, at most, is between [-] million and [-] million, which is already a very satisfactory result for him.

But Leila actually said it was six or seven billion, or in front of so many reporters and media, she is not afraid of being laughed at by these people if she guesses wrong?Or is she really so confident that this movie will become such an excellent commercial movie?
Or... did she say that on purpose?Once the box office does not reach such a high level, even if he gets a very good four to five billion yuan, will he still be ridiculed by the mass media?

Michael's face was gloomy, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had guessed the truth of the matter.Otherwise, why is she willing to spend so much investment and send such a popular film to herself?I should have figured it out a long time ago, how can I let myself be seen as a joke by others when the film is successful!

How about there is an idiom called "Suspicious Neighbor Stealing Axe"?When you suspect that someone is wrong, no matter how you think about this person, the more suspicious you are, and you are using your brain to do anything.
