The Goddess Shines on America

　　 Being an angel investor in the start-up of the good sister's father next door, and also planning to help write some scripts, this is not a trivial matter, so that night, Alice and the whole family came to the living room of the Lawrence house for dinner.

"The current situation is that I have received 4 million US dollars in cash from friends, and I can get 5 million US dollars on loans. In terms of scripts, I have many friends who work in the Screenwriter Association, and it is not difficult to get excellent works. ."

The dining table was filled with hearty delicacies, and the dining chairs were full of guests. Mr. Lawrence enthusiastically introduced Alice: “But Alice, you have to be clear. The threshold of the film industry is very low, but it’s also too low to succeed It's difficult. No one can accurately judge the box office of a movie, and it also involves cooperation with theaters, and the allocation of schedules is a very complicated matter."

　　 "That's for sure."

　　 Alice put down the knife and fork, and shrugged: "No industry is so easy to engage in. After all, the winners in every industry are billionaires. Is it easy for these monopoly to be? Definitely not."

After taking another bite of the filet mignon, she said: "Anyway, I'm just an angel investor. Throw some money in, throw a script in, and then as an investor, you can appoint a director and an actor, and that's it. It’s not because you are talking about the mess of theaters and schedules."

Mrs. Lawrence toasted and laughed: "Look, my dear, how easy it is to make money with Alice, my dear. Unlike you, you still need to keep in touch with people in the industry day and night. Some hard work."

　　 "Auntie, you are not right to say that~"

Sitting in the corner, Hannah had just finished drinking the juice and wiped her mouth and said, "Is not tired or not easy, mainly because I am not good at it. It is like, although my sister only takes a week to write a script, but Uncle must be very difficult to braid even if his hair is gray; uncle can easily become the protagonist at the banquet and let many people listen to him, but my dad can only hold the book and let the students in the class listen to him. , You may not love to listen to it!"

　　 After finishing the last sentence, the whole table suddenly fell into a burst of laughter, and Hannah even straightened her back, and said to James with full expression: "Am I right, daddy?"

　　 "Yes! Yes! Haha! That's right! Students who can love to listen to history lessons are really rare!"

　　 James couldn't laugh or cry, and at the same time he was full of emotion. He really knew his class situation better than anyone else. As a history course that teaches cowboy history, it was originally an elective course, but it was basically just used by the students to collect credits. It often takes less than 20 minutes to get out of half of the number. Those who really learn this course seriously, Very few.

　　 "Ahem, anyway, Mr. Lawrence, have you thought about the name of the film company?"

　　 This is the most important question. As an investor, of course you have to ask clearly. Mr. Lawrence opened his mouth and said: "I have thought about it a long time ago. It is called DreamWorks!"

　　 "It's called DreamWorks!"

　　 "It's called DreamWorks!"

　　 "DreamWorks!"

　　 "Factory!"

　　 "Factory!"

　　 Well, this time it was not artificial echo.

　　 But these words really kept rippling in Alice's mind.

　　 DreamWorks?

　　 Just this afternoon, I just spoofed an SOS group of "Alice group that makes the world more lively"...

　　...Is this retribution?

　　 Alice's brain instantly plunged into a thought storm.

　　 But, it doesn’t seem to be retribution.

　　 "Good! Great!"

Of course, everyone else will not have any extra thoughts. James first stated: "Carrying your dream, Roger, after more than ten years of investment in the entertainment industry, the dream ship finally set foot on the ocean road. This registered name is really like you. It's so matching!"

　　 "Yes, Roger, DreamWorks, DreamWorks, this name is really great! Alice, it seems you have a good vision, with this name, I support the shareholding!"

　　 So, after naming the great SOS group in the afternoon, Alice witnessed the naming scene of DreamWorks Film Company, which is in Mr. Lawrence's restaurant.

　　 According to the discussion between the two families after a meal, the biggest problem facing the new film company is exactly what Cici said. It is not that the funds are not in place, nor that the contacts are not sufficient, but that Mr. Lawrence, as a senior investor in the entertainment industry, has a very high vision. The works of small actors and small directors are inconspicuous, but high investment is not something he can afford Yes, so there has been no action for a few months.

"In fact, Roger has good eyes and low hands. Now he has his mouth and his mouth. When he really wants to take action, he must have started filming from a small film. Which film company does not do this, even the current eighth big, it is not used. It has been accumulated bit by bit over a period of decades."

　　 Finally, the wife laughed at her husband.

　　 So, Mr. Lawrence quickly changed the subject: "Speaking of which, can Alice's "Jurassic Park" be adapted into a movie? Although the novel is not yet sold, this theme is very good!"

Alice shrugged indifferently: "If you can make Lucas’ Industrial Light & Magic make a real digital dinosaur, then I’m fine. But if it’s a few models like Ultraman, or like "King Kong" If you build a machine like that, I will never authorize it."

　　 Alice’s answer is categorical. After all, she grew up watching Spielberg’s version of Jurassic Park, and that movie has full historical significance. But its wonderful plot itself, the first movie that uses digital CG technology to create characters, and it can be made so lifelike, such a treasure-level movie, if it is casually discharged at this time...Who can bear it? ?

Mr. Lawrence is not reluctant. After all, the original novel has not yet been published. At least he has to look at the market and consider whether to adapt the movie: "Let’s do it like this~www.readwn.com~Alice, I can The funding used to make the first film is about five million US dollars. Based on the size of this funding, you can write a suitable script. Of course, it is better if you also have investment."

　　 "Then in terms of profit distribution, in terms of the script alone, when the movie is released, you can get 25% of the revenue, how about it?"

　　 The terms that Mr. Lawrence throws out are extremely tempting, and it is definitely an insider transaction, which is enough to prove that James and Sophie take a cold breath.

　　 Alice knows that this is entirely because she is a neighbor and a friend of Cici. Because just as a movie screenwriter, you can get 25% of the box office revenue. From the industry regulations, this is definitely something that has never happened before.

　　 If any ordinary screenwriter is asked to hear this kind of welfare, no, any screenwriter who hears it will have to faint with happiness!

　　 To be reasonable, how much is a script worth? How much can a movie have the worst box office?

　　 One is a one-shot deal for an individual to sell his work to a company. The text version of a two-hour movie is worth tens of thousands of dollars. The other is the box office of movies released in the city, the state, the country, and even the world!

　　 So, Alice instantly understood that Mr. Lawrence wanted more than just the script of this movie. As a venture capital manager, he certainly knew the best way to cooperate.

　　 "Then we have to clarify the situation, Uncle Roger."
