Chapter 1440 The Potential of Bad Films
The next day, at two o'clock in the afternoon, in the HN Films headquarters, in the press conference hall.
"Wow, so many colleagues."
"Bibi C, Twisting Times, Wall Street Journal, C um C, Huaxia TV, Reuters... I feel like all the major media in the world are here."
"Isn't this entertainment news, why are so many big media here?"
"It's not because Li Feng is the hottest person in the world right now, where he appears represents traffic."
"It's really an era when traffic is king..."
The media reporters present couldn't help but sigh after seeing many colleagues gathered together.
"I don't know what kind of movies HN Pictures and Shengtang Entertainment are going to co-produce."
"There is a high probability that it is a superhero movie, which is the hottest subject in recent years."
"I also think it's a superhero movie. After all, HN Pictures also has its own superhero IP."
"Let's think about how to ask questions later. I believe that this new film briefing will talk about the subject matter."
While everyone was whispering, Li Feng came to the press conference room accompanied by a group of executives from HN Films.
As soon as he entered the venue, he murdered countless films. Facing the flashing lights, Li Feng didn't even blink his brows. He looked like a superstar walking through countless red carpets.
"First of all, I would like to thank all media friends for being there. As a thank you, everyone will receive a small gift prepared by HN Pictures when they leave the venue later."
Li Feng adjusted the position of the microphone and smiled.
There was a burst of laughter on the sidelines.
It is an unspoken rule of the industry to prepare gifts or even red envelopes for the reporters present.
Journalists have a pen in their hands and want them to give positive comments or even business guidance. How can they do it without giving them some benefits?
Since it is an unspoken rule, naturally, as expected by the reporters, there was no particularly enthusiastic response except for Xiao Xiao.
Then a reporter raised his hand.
Li Feng glanced at him and found that it was a Chinese face. When he looked at her work card again, it said "Huaxia TV", and suddenly smiled: "This reporter friend of Huaxia TV, what's the problem?"
"Can I know what gift you prepared for us?" The beauty reporter stood up and asked curiously.
"Of course, it's just a bottle of rosy water." Li Feng said with a smile.
"Hongyanshui?!" The beautiful reporter of Huaxia TV couldn't help but exclaimed.
The other reporters were also stunned for a moment, followed by a burst of exclamations one after another.
try{mad1('gad2');} catch(ex){} With the explosion of Tongyan Shui, almost no one knows about Tongyan, Hongyan and Runyan, the three fist products of Oswelli.
Tong Yan auctions a bottle every week, which is the most in-demand product. Most people can only dream about it, and they can only buy beauty or moisturizing.
As we all know, the price of Hongyan is 20,000 a bottle in China, and 3,500 pounds a bottle after tariffs are added abroad.
At present, there is no Oswili agent in the United States. If you want to buy it, you can only find a purchasing agent, and the price is even higher.
The price given by the daigou is almost 4000 pounds a bottle.
The number of reporters present was about 300. Let’s take it as 300. A bottle of beauty water for one person is 1.2 million pounds, which is enough to buy a villa.
Li Feng is too generous, right? !
"Yes, it's Hongyanshui, one bottle per person, and the old man is not deceived."
Li Feng shrugged and smiled.
"crash"
There was a burst of warm applause and cheers in the press room.
Don't say anything else,
They are so generous with Li Feng. After the press conference, they have to write more good words to Li Feng, and blow up the movie that has not yet started shooting.
When the applause stopped, Li Feng began to introduce the new movie: "I think everyone is very curious about the theme of the movie that HN Pictures and Shengtang Entertainment will be co-producing, right?"
The reporters nodded frantically.
"It's not a science fiction movie, it's not an action movie, it's not a superhero movie, it's a disaster romance movie," Li Feng said slowly.
Reporter present: "???"
Disaster romance? This has the potential to be a bad movie when you hear it!
In recent years, there have been few excellent movies with love themes, and there are quite a few disaster movies, but it is difficult to balance the box office and word of mouth.
The key is that there has never been an excellent disaster romance movie in the history of world cinema. What did Li Feng think about making a movie with this theme?
Li Feng had long expected this kind of reaction, and immediately smiled: "Does everyone know about the Titanic?"
Most of the reporters shook their heads and said they had not heard of it.
It was a beautiful reporter from Huaxia TV who said, "Is it the Titanic that was silent at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean on its first voyage?"
Li Feng nodded: "Yes, that is the cruise ship."
"Ah, aren't you planning to film the sinking of the Titanic?" the beautiful reporter from Huaxia TV asked in surprise.
Li Feng's mouth twitched, but he didn't hide it: "Yes, but this is only part of it. This movie is very grand, because the plot is very grand. Of course, in the final analysis, the concept is grand enough."
try{mad1('gad2');} catch(ex){} Everyone: "???"
How big can a cruise ship of the last century hit an iceberg and sink, and how big can aliens attack the earth? Can a superhero save the world?
It itself limits the plot, okay!
However, Li Feng had already sent out a portion of Hongyanshui, and everyone could only hold it in their hearts temporarily if they poured cold water on him.
"Mr. Li, how much is the investment for this drama? Are you sure?"
asked a reporter who was asked.
Li Feng smiled playfully: "It starts with $1 billion, and it will not be capped."
"what?!"
"My God, $1 billion to start with, it's insane!"
"The world's largest investment movie seems to cost less than 400 million US dollars, 1 billion US dollars can make two and a half!"
"Mr. Li, you must be joking with us, right?"
All the reporters are going crazy, $1 billion is a staggering amount.
"Of course I'm not kidding, I'm serious." Li Feng said in a deep voice.
According to the script, the film was set in 1996 in an alternate universe and cost $250 million.
This is the number 24 years ago. Now, including inflation, how can it cost 2.5 billion US dollars?
So he wasn't kidding when he said $1 billion started.
Li Feng said so, what else can the reporters say? It can only be said that Li Feng is rich and powerful.
When calm returned to the scene, a reporter stood up and asked, "Mr. Li, is the director of this drama confirmed?"
"Of course, and the director does not charge any fees." Li Feng said with a smile.
A group of reporters: "???"
No...a movie that starts at $1 billion, and the director doesn't charge anything? Just kidding!
When everyone was shocked, Li Feng said with a smile: "No doubt, because this director is me, and it is the first movie I am about to shoot. Are you looking forward to it?"
A group of reporters: "..."
Damn, they finally understood why Li Feng invested so much. It turned out that he wanted to electrocute the director!
Big investment, new director, unpopular theme, this is the rhythm of booking the first bad movie in history!
