Another World Under My Pen

Chapter 1011: Ambitious

In the second week of its release, "Terminator" showed great resilience and potential.

The domestic box office of 220 million is enough to satisfy most people, including Sun Peng himself. With the addition of three additional countries for release, the overseas box office of "Terminator" has accumulated to 19 million US dollars-this is still in the case of no official release in North America!

"The most important thing is the appeal of Teacher Lao Bai!"

After looking through the box office data of the latest week, Gao Runqing couldn’t help but sigh: “Whether we talked about these distribution companies at the beginning or finally determined the number of screens to be released, including the current box office data, I am afraid that most of them will be Credit to Teacher Lao Bai!"

Gao Runqing was envious of the process of negotiating with those overseas filmmakers.

In the beginning, those filmmakers who were above the top were quite optimistic about "Terminator", but the asking price was basically hundreds of thousands of buyouts. But when they saw that Lao Bai's name was hung in the screenwriter column and he was still creating alone, the buyout price quickly changed from hundreds of thousands of Chinese coins to hundreds of thousands of dollars! In addition, publishers with effects in Southeast Asia and Europe have even agreed to use box office sharing to cooperate, which is a completely different attitude!

For a small company like Takagi Pictures, that's a treatment that has never been given before.

And for the domestic box office, Gao Runqing is also quite satisfied-you must know that in order to invest a little more in production costs, they have saved a lot of publicity costs, almost carrying the name of Lao Bai to make publicity everywhere. In terms of the creation lineup and production cost of "Terminator", this kind of performance definitely satisfied him.

"Hehe, slowly you get used to it."

Compared to Gao Runqing’s exclamation, Wei Xiaolin had already taken all this for granted, and soon said with a smile: "But next, can there be a second part, or when to start working on the second part? I can see what Lao Bai means."

"Director Wei, when do you think the preparations will start?"

Hearing what Wei Xiaolin said, Gao Runqing's expression immediately became a little nervous. In fact, he is not worried about whether there is a second film. Let’s not say that the quality and box office of "Terminator" are quite good. Lao Bai himself has repeatedly expressed his satisfaction. Just talk about the relationship between Wei Xiaolin and Sun Peng. The best guarantee!

"The second one?"

Thinking of what he promised to Sun Peng that day, Wei Xiaolin couldn't help but said with joy: "Don't think too much about it. It seems that guy's expectations for "Terminator 2" are really high. I'm afraid he will have to wait until next year at the earliest. It will start at the end or the next year!"

"..."

Hearing what Wei Xiaolin said, Gao Runqing was naturally a little disappointed.

Finally caught the super **** Lao Bai, and the movie's box office and word of mouth are also good, Gao Runqing also wants to strike while the iron is hot, and quickly launch a sequel. But he also has no way. The script counts on Lao Bai. Of course, the more important thing is that the copyright is still in his hands. What can he do?

Seeing his old friend's disappointed look, Wei Xiaolin couldn't help but smile: "Well, I expect to be disappointed here, so it's better to save more money quickly!"

"Save money? Why?"

After blinking, Gao Runqing was puzzled.

"Nonsense, of course it is preparing for the future "Terminator 2"!"

Seeing Wei Xiaolin's natural face, Gao Runqing suddenly widened his eyes in surprise: "No? Old Wei, we can make him at least several hundred million yuan from this film? Isn't that enough?"

"Cut, several hundred million?"

Wei Xiaolin couldn't look down upon Gao Runqing's arrogant look.

According to the current box office trend of "Terminator", the domestic one billion is definitely no problem. If you are lucky to have a 1.23 billion, then the box office alone will not only recover the cost, but also make a lot of money... if you add At the box office outside Shanghai, for example, it’s not impossible to make another one or two hundred million for the release that is being discussed with other Americans!

For Gaomu Pictures, this is a good meal.

But after making a few movies with this old white, how can Wei Xiaolin get the results of "Terminator"? Think about the Matrix, think about hurricane rescue, think about the Lion King and Frozen?

An ambition suddenly emerged in his mind. Wei Xiaolin shook his head vigorously and said: "Of course not enough! According to my understanding of Sun Peng, since he values ​​the sequel of this film so much, the production cost must be very huge. Let alone five or six billion..."

...

There is no doubt that, in the eyes of many people, the results of "Terminator" do not meet Lao Bai's box office standards.

So during this period of time on the Internet, various voices are also disturbing.

But for Sun Peng, these are not things he wants to pay attention to, because from the time he wrote the script of "Terminator 1", Sun Peng knew that the box office of this film was not high. After all, it is a very long film, and there are no big stars, no stimulating special effects and big scenes. Why do movie fans have to buy it?

If the plot is not good, I am afraid that Lao Bai's iron fan will be uprising.

What Sun Peng is looking forward to is "Terminator 2" which will be filmed the next year or later. That is the best one in the entire series. As for the present...

"The contract for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has been finalized and will be officially launched next month!"

On the fourth day of Sun Peng’s return, the second sister brought him good news: "And not only is the English version available in Europe and North America at the same time, the Chinese version of this book will also be on sale at the same time...Of course. The cooperating publishing house is still a light wheel, but the other party's conditions are slightly lower, and the first print is only 500,000 copies."

"It doesn't matter, the first print is not important."

Waved his hand, Sun Peng said with a smile: "I like the stamina of their books. As for the previous words, don't worry... By the way, sister, have you finished reading the book Murder on the Western Express? How do you feel? "

"This one……"

After hesitating for a moment, Sun Ya shook her head and said: "I don't like to read mystery novels, so you have to ask me how this book is... To be honest, I think the ending is quite unexpected, and the process in between is quite interesting. As for whether this book is very exciting or appealing to reasoning lovers, I can't judge it."

The second sister was very frank, and Sun Peng was not surprised.

Although the fan base of mystery novels is large, there are still many people who still don’t like it, especially the long and tedious process of inference and reasoning. What fans watch is racking their brains, sometimes even thrilling, but those who don’t like it don’t care. You can't see the flowers at all!

So he didn’t care about the second sister’s opinion at all. Sun Peng just smiled and said, “It’s okay, then you can help me find some reliable people to review this book. If there are publishers interested, you can start talking with them. It's..."
