Chapter 150: Sophie Marceau

"$130 million?"

Tom Rothman read aloud, shook his head helplessly, and said, "I need to go back and discuss it with the board of directors."

Even Helen-Solomon, Sophia-Coppola and Gail-Anne-Hurd on the side couldn't believe it.

The budget Ryan mentioned was simply too high.

"Orion Films can bear half of the investment, and together with 20th Century Fox will be responsible for the North American distribution of the film. As for the overseas distribution of the film, the 20th Century Fox family will be responsible." Ryan said.

A very common way of cooperation between Hollywood film companies.

"$65 million is still not a small amount." Tom Rothman was a little silent, "Even I can't decide it easily."

Even with Orion Pictures bearing half of the investment, 20th Century Fox still needs to pay more than $65 million in budget, which is not a small amount.

"In this regard, I understand very well that half of the investment is also a very large number for Orion Films. It will take a certain amount of time to solve the funding problem through financing." Ryan said.

He never considered that 20th Century Fox would use its own funds, definitely through financing, to solve the funding problem, and even Orion Pictures would do the same.

"Financing also takes a certain amount of time." Tom Rothman said, got up and left after finishing.

He needs to seek the opinions of other high-level officials to finally decide whether to continue the project.

"From a director's point of view, Ryan, you are too anxious." James Cameron was the only outsider left now, and he said in a deep tone: "You can come a little bit."

Come little by little!

Ryan glanced at him, are you sure it's not a little bit of additional investment?

However, what James Cameron said is indeed a solution, first report two-thirds, or half of the budget, and then quickly spend the money, and continue to add funds to the investment company~www.wuxiaspot.com~Welfare] Send you a cash red envelope!

In this way, there are only two options before the investment company. The first is to continue to increase funds, and the second is to change a director, which also needs to continue to increase funds.

As for terminating the project!

For a project that has already cost tens of millions of dollars in investment, no Hollywood film company or investment company dares to terminate the entire project, otherwise it will only cause greater losses.

"So there is only one Cameron in the world." Ryan was speechless for a while, he was not James Cameron, chasing the top executives of 20th Century Fox to ask for additional investment.

"Okay, let's change to a lighter topic." After finishing speaking, James Cameron fixed his eyes on Ryan and said, "Leave Spider-Man to me and let me direct the first Spider-Man movie." !"

"Then, a little bit of additional investment?" Ryan asked back.

"We can invest together." James Cameron has no intention of giving up directing Spider-Man.

"Okay, James, Orion Pictures has no plans to shoot Spider-Man for the time being, and you don't have a schedule either." Gail-Anne-Hurd stood in front of James-Cameron, lest he continue to pester Spider-Man.

"Gale, you're right. Orion Pictures won't be making a Spider-Man movie for at least a few years."

Ryan tapped the table lightly, and continued: "Compared to the cooperation on Spider-Man, I hope to invest in the digital field."

Although when he was in the crew of "The Evil Spirit", he once rejected the digital field and chose Industrial Light and Magic.

But it cannot be said that he does not pay attention to the digital field, and is even very interested in investing in the digital field.

"In your own name? Or Orion Pictures?" James Cameron froze for a moment, then asked.

"Is there a difference?" Ryan asked.

"If you invest in your own name, I would welcome it very much." James Cameron did not answer this question, but stood up and said, "Winston, I have long hoped that new investors will join."

Stan Winston, in addition to James Cameron, is another founder of the digital field and a long-time friend of James Cameron.

"Then in my own name." Ryan understood what he meant, but he didn't want to get involved in the disputes between film companies.

James Cameron didn't stay for long, he said his goodbyes, and left the banquet. Before leaving, he and Ryan set a time to go to the digital field to experiment with the effect of bullet time.

As soon as James Cameron left, Helen Solomon frowned immediately and asked, "I want to know, where did you go to find financing channels, Wall Street? Or overseas!"

Hollywood's traditional financing channels almost all have a looming relationship with several giants, and it is difficult for Orion Films to find a suitable financing channel.

"Overseas." Ryan said two very short words, which made Helen breathe a sigh of relief.

Compared with Hollywood's traditional financing channels, overseas financing channels are much simpler and far less complicated.

In the previous life, DreamWorks was the financing channel obtained from India.

"Next, let's relax." As he spoke, Ryan asked the waiter for a glass of red wine, and walked towards the target he had chosen.

"The lower body thinks about animals." Sofia Coppola complained.

"Men are like that." Gail-Anne-Herd nodded in agreement.

"Hello, Miss Sophie-Marceau!" Ryan walked up to Sophie-Marceau with a glass of red wine, his eyes brightened.

She wore a very **** black tulle evening dress, with her snow-white skin looming, exuding a fatal temptation.

Besides, the current Sophie Marceau is not a young actress, but a real European goddess, the dream lover of countless men.

"You are?" Sophie Marceau showed a little hesitation, then recognized Ryan's identity, and said very happily: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Director Ryan."

"Me too." Ryan looked Sophie Marceau up and down, and invited, "Will you have time soon?"

"We can go have a cup of coffee together."

Sophie Marceau hesitated for a moment, but thinking that he had just bought Orion Films, she couldn't help but nodded, "Yes."

Next, the two chatted for a few words and left the banquet together. Sophie Marceau seemed to have drunk a lot of red wine and became slightly drunk.

Ryan talks about The Terminator with Tom Rothman the whole time, just over a glass of red wine.

"Looks like I left my car keys with Sophia."

Ryan took out his pocket, turned to look at Sophie Marceau, and said helplessly, "If you don't mind, I can act as your driver."

Sophia!

Sophie Marceau has naturally heard of Sofia Coppola's name, "I should be honored."

She took out a bunch of keys from the lady's bag and handed them to Ryan, then came to a red Porsche.

"A beautiful sports car."

Ryan praised, opened the car door, let Sophie Marceau sit on it first, and then he sat in the driving seat, started the car, and left Beverly Hills.

"Where are you going?" Ryan asked.

"Malibu, I have a house there." Sophie Marceau glanced at Ryan and said an address.

Malibu is next to Beverly Hills ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ has the famous Star Beach, where many Hollywood stars live,

Of course, housing prices are also very expensive. Even the cheapest house costs millions of dollars.

"Starlight Beach?"

"Maybe I should choose Malibu instead of Beverly Hills." Ryan turned a corner and drove towards Malibu.

"If you like the sea, Malibu is a good choice, and it is next to Beverly Hills." Sophie Marceau is very familiar with Malibu.

"The price can also be cheaper." Ryan said casually.

Compared with Malibu, the housing prices of Beverly Hills are famous all over the world.

"You also care about this!" Sophie Marceau looked at Ryan with some surprise. She had heard of some of his deeds. The "Chain Saw" series of films alone created an astonishing amount of income.

What's more, there is "The Truman Show" which is currently in theaters.
