Rebirth of Hong Kong's tycoons, shorting Eagle Sauce

Wang Lei was stunned when he heard the offer of 100 million.

He thought he had to bear all the expenses Fox had invested, but he didn't expect it to be much cheaper.

Shirley said hesitantly:

"There is a reason why they offer low prices. Now everyone in the industry knows that Cameron has burned 140 million US dollars before filming.

Almost everyone believes that Titanic will suffer huge losses like Cleopatra.

So... Fox would rather suffer losses and sell the project."

Wang Lei couldn't help but smile:

"Okay, I will transfer the money as soon as possible, and you will immediately hand over the project to Fox."

The Fox executives cried with joy when they saw the 100 million US dollars in their accounts.

With this money, they can do anything else, and they can carry out three or four major projects at the same time.

As for the tens of millions of losses, they didn't care.

They even felt that they had made a profitable business.

The entire 20th Century Fox Film Corporation was in a carnival.

Kembauer also joined in with a bohemian manner.

He called Guy without paying attention to anyone else:

"Brother, I have good news for you. Wang Lei spent 100 million to buy the Titanic project!"

Guy was also stunned when he heard this. He always felt that things were too smooth. Didn't Wang Lei notice that this was a movie that was destined to lose money?

Although he couldn't figure it out, he still congratulated Kembauer and said:

"Congratulations, if nothing unexpected happens, you have cheated Wang Lei again."

This is why Kembauer is really happy. The elders will definitely give him a reward afterwards.

"This is the result of the joint efforts of our little league..."

And the director of Titanic, James Cameron, left the Fox building with a gloomy look and his assistants holding a cardboard box.

After receiving the notice, he was very surprised. He didn't expect that the final result would be like this.

When they came to get the documents, they saw that Fox was holding a celebration party, and they felt a little uncomfortable.

"Boss, if we can't keep people here, we'll have other places to keep people. Mr. Wang Lei has always wanted to cooperate with us, and this is a good opportunity.

As long as we do a good job on the Titanic project, the other party will definitely not treat us unfairly."

The assistant's words cheered Cameron up again, and he agreed;

"You're right, now is not the time to be dejected. Only by doing a good job on the movie in front of us can we wash away the world's prejudice against us."

Cameron is not deaf, he naturally knows how the outside world evaluates him now, thinking that he is a paranoid lunatic.

Madmen and geniuses are actually the same kind of people, he must rely on box office results to prove himself again!

Thinking of this, he and his assistants came to Paramount's office building.

To the surprise of several people, Paramount put up a big banner to welcome them.

Ms. Shirley and a dragon man wearing sunglasses stood at the door with a large group of people to greet them.

"They are here."

A group of beautiful housekeeping ladies handed them flowers, and the cartons in their hands were also taken over by enthusiastic security guards.

"Director Cameron, I'm honored to have the opportunity to work with your team."

Cameron then realized that this was the famous financial son Wang Lei.

Although this was the first time the two met, it was not the first time that the other party invited him to join United Elite.

He always felt that he did not need an agent and that his own studio could complete all business cooperation.

But now he was also moved by Wang Lei's sincerity and attention.

A tiger in the plain is bullied by a dog. The entertainment industry seems more real than any other industry.

When you are happy, you are surrounded by flowers and applause. Once something goes wrong.

Everyone avoids you and regards you as a flood and a beast.

He also experienced the warmth and coldness of the entertainment industry.

At this time, Wang Lei's polite attitude towards others made him very happy.

He couldn't help but feel a sore nose and a trace of tears in his eyes after he was over mid-aged.

"Director Cameron, I'll take you around the company. We'll go to Shirley's office later to discuss the next budget issue."

"Sir, let's talk about the budget of the project first. We'll have a long time to spend together, and we can slowly get familiar with each other."

Knowing that Cameron was afraid of seeing the cold eyes of Paramount employees, Wang Lei did not continue to force it.

Everyone sat down on Shirley's sofa.

After being ruthlessly abandoned by Fox, Cameron's stubborn temper was restrained a lot, for fear of making Wang Lei unhappy.

He said hesitantly:

"Sir, I wonder how much budget you plan to give us?"

Looking at the other party's cautious look, Wang Lei smiled:

"Director Cameron, how much is the budget, I should be the one to ask you, you don't have to be polite with me, I will agree to any budget you want!"

"II am not a short-sighted person. If the situation allows, I will not block any of your budget applications! "

Hearing this, Cameron and his assistant were stunned. They did not expect that Wang Lei, who was usually promoted as a big devil, would be so easy to talk to.

At Fox, every budget application is a long torture.

They are afraid that if they ask for too much, they will not approve it. Even if they agree to give it, the original budget will be greatly discounted.

It has left a great psychological shadow on the entire team.

Cameron asked a little unbelievably:

"Really, how much budget do I want, will you agree to it?"

"Of course! I will never regret what I say."

Hearing Wang Lei say this, Cameron was surrounded by a warm trust, and he asked excitedly:

"If I ask for another 200 million, will you give it to me?"

"Yes, why not? "

Shirley was so frightened that she couldn't speak. She didn't know why Wang Lei trusted Cameron so much. If Cameron really increased the cost to 300 million, Titanic would become the most expensive movie in the world, no doubt about it.

Wang Lei looked indifferent and didn't joke.

You know, including the re-released version, the total box office of Titanic far exceeded 2.2 billion US dollars. Even if Paramount burned 300 million, it would make a lot of money.

Cameron felt Wang Lei's sincerity again, and he said frankly:

"Sir, it doesn't take that much. My subordinates and I recalculated the cost.

It is estimated that we need to add about 60 million US dollars to the budget, and we can complete the filming of Titanic!"

Wang Lei was anxious when he heard this:

"Director Cameron, I really want to cooperate with you. I appreciate your paranoid side in filmmaking. You must not be influenced by the outside world and change your original intention of making a good movie.

It is my responsibility to raise funds for you. I don't need you to save unnecessary costs for me. "

After hearing this, Cameron finally believed that he had met a soulmate who understood him.

The assistants were also speechless for a long time, and they all sighed in their hearts that Wang Lei was worthy of being a big boss with a net worth of tens of billions. This kind of temperament was incomparable to those clowns in Fox.
