Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 991
"Mr. Martin, do you mean that you want to invest in a movie?" She smiled pretendingly, "Of course there is no problem, our budget for "Blood Diamond" is [-] million US dollars, how much are you willing to pay? "

"[-] million?" Martin's eyeballs almost popped out.It took all his strength not to show himself in an ugly posture in front of his subordinates.Just kidding!If he has [-] million US dollars, does he still need to live a bloody life in this small country?Already took the money to go abroad to live a chic life, okay?
Laila faced him face to face, just enough to see his momentary shock in his eyes, and already understood that this man was indeed a layman who didn't understand anything.Seeing that the movie got so much box office, I was jealous, and thought I could also get a hand in it.If it were really that easy to make money, wouldn't directors all over the world have become the most popular investment targets long ago?

"Yes." She sighed: "At first, I thought 5000 million would be about the same, but now it is estimated that there is still a shortfall of about [-] million. If Mr. Martin is interested in investing, that would be great."

The corner of Martin's mouth twitched, he couldn't even get 5000 million!In order to keep the diamond producing area, a lot of money was sent to the officials in charge.However, his luck was not good, the mine kept producing low-quality rough stones, and it was rare to find a top-quality blue diamond that was stolen by his subordinates and sold to others.Let alone 5000 million now, it is impossible for him to take out 500 million!

He didn't need to look back now to know that his subordinates must be laughing at his wishful thinking, so he stood up abruptly in embarrassment, walked up to Laila, and swiped the dagger in front of her face a few times.

"Director Moran, I think you may have some misunderstandings. I invited you here not to tell me what to do, but to work for me. It's a pity that the movie you are making can no longer be made. From now on In the beginning, all you need to do is to make movies for me and make money for me!"

The dagger with a cold light dangled in front of his eyes, leaving no doubt about its sharpness.Lyra's ice-blue eyes shone with the same coldness under the light of the knife, but those sharp eyes were all hidden by the long eyelashes that drooped under the eyelids.

The more this time, the calmer she is.Many people have said that she is an overly sensible person, and she was very helpless about this before.But at this time, she felt that it was great that she could still guarantee this calmness.

Only by maintaining the most calm state can we find a way to save ourselves.

"Mr. Martin, I think you may have some misunderstandings. A movie can't be shot just because it's made. First, you need a good script, then you need enough investment, and then you need a lot of helpers, such as makeup artists, prop artists, and lighting. , drama, etc. Even if the film is finished, it is still necessary to find an excellent editor to cut the film out, and then invite the soundtrack, dubbing, and special effects to do the post-production. Even if all these are done, it is still necessary to find a cooperation The distribution company, they are responsible for the distribution of the film, and then they have to sign a screening contract with the theater owners..."

The corners of Martin's mouth twitched.It felt like there was a group of sparrows in his head, chirping non-stop, making his brain almost explode.How did he know that it would be so troublesome for a movie to make money?

That's what Laila wanted, and what he said could only be said by a super-layman, and even ordinary people would know how difficult it is to make a movie.So she simply spoke more professionally to persuade him to give up that unrealistic and absurd idea.

Martin's face was cloudy and uncertain. He didn't know if the movie budget of 5000 million or [-] million just now was real, but the other party was in his hands, and he could kill her at any time. It is right to tell such a lie in front of you.

Just when he was hesitating, a person came up to his ear and said a few words.

After listening to his words, Martin's expression suddenly turned ferocious, and he looked at Laila with unfriendly eyes: "Director Moran, I am a civilized person, and I prefer civilized communication methods. But if you refuse to cooperate, put I don't mind being rude if I play around like an idiot. You don't want to be treated like that either, do you?"

Lyra's eyes narrowed, and out of the corner of her eye she glanced at the man Martin had just spoken to.It was a man in his thirties, wearing glasses and a neat white shirt, who looked more like an elite white-collar worker than one of a gang of gangsters.

But from the scene just now, it can be known that this person should have a high status next to Martin, the leader, and he probably belongs to an organization's intelligence quotient, that is, a military adviser.

Such a person was much more difficult to deal with than the simple-minded and greedy Martin, and let Laila know that the plan she had just made had to be revised.

To be honest, she would rather face a reckless man with a gun than a smart person with a brain.

"Mr. Martin, I don't seem to understand what you mean." Laila deliberately pretended to be timid to reduce the vigilance of the other party.This look is more in line with what she should be like at this time. If she keeps a calm look, it will only make the other party more wary of her.

Those present did not expect a young woman to remain calm in the face of them who were holding weapons and tied her up.Basically, women who can talk to them with such a fluent voice as her are rare.

Martin snorted coldly: "I heard that the first film directed by Moran earned 10 U.S. dollars and sold [-] million at the box office, right?" It can be exchanged for [-] million, as long as he makes a few more films, he can still make a lot of money!

Laila immediately understood what he meant, and even sneered at his amateurishness.

"That's true. But that's just an example. If I can really earn box office so easily, do you think I will spend hundreds of millions to make movies?"

When Martin thought about it, it seemed to be the same reason.If 10 yuan can earn [-] million yuan, who would use hundreds of millions to do it?How many movies can be made with hundreds of millions of dollars?Can't you make more money?
Laila actually changed a concept secretly.One hundred thousand can earn [-] million, but hundreds of millions can earn more than one billion.No matter how powerful she is, she is only one person, even if she shoots a year, it is impossible to make a few films. Under the same time, making commercial films or special effects blockbusters can earn more.

As a result, the next moment, she saw the dog-headed military division say a few words in Martin's ear.

Although I couldn't hear what he said, I could see that his words had an effect.
