Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

When Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin came out from behind, the audience immediately became excited.

"Lin...Lin...Lin..."

They shouted the word Lin, but what they were shouting was not Lin Daoqiu, but Brigitte Lin next to Lin Daoqiu.

"Let us welcome Lin Daoqiu and Lin Qingxia, two handsome men and beauties, to "Late Night Interview"."

Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin waved to the audience.

"Please take a seat, both of you."

Lucas invited them to the sofa next to him.

"I believe everyone already knows that there is a popular movie being aired recently. It is the movie "Tomb Raider" starring Mr. Lin and produced by Ms. Lin. Has anyone seen this movie live?"

After Lucas finished asking, many people at the scene raised their hands.

Seeing the few audience members who raised their hands, Lucas nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, to be honest, I'm very envious of you. "Tomb Raider" has been released for several days, but I haven't had time to watch it yet. I'm really jealous that you can see it before me."

Although he said this, in fact, Lucas was just saying polite words.

If he really wants to watch it, a 90-minute movie won't take up much of his time.

"The movie "Tomb Raider" has been in theaters for five days. The box office exceeded 80 million US dollars yesterday. If nothing happens, the box office should be expected to exceed 100 million today. Some people predict that "Tomb Raider" will eventually

The box office is expected to break through the 300 million mark, what does Mr. Lin think?"

The performance of "Tomb Raider" is indeed very good. It started from 12 million US dollars on the first day and has been rising all the way. By the fourth day, it directly reached 80 million US dollars.

The single-day box office has also increased from 12 million to 18 million. If everything goes well, there is indeed hope to exceed 100 million today.

"Judging from the feedback from the release of "Tomb Raider" in the past few days, the audience is still very satisfied with this movie, and this was my original intention in making this movie."

Talking about box office is too vulgar, although Lin Daoqiu's original intention of producing this drama was just to make money.

But telling the truth often depends on the situation. It is impossible to tell the truth all at once. If someone does that, then he is just a fool.

"I appreciate Mr. Lin's words very much. As long as the movie is well-made, you won't have to worry about the box office. Judging from the box office of "Tomb Raider" these days, this movie is indeed very good."

Lucas also helped to promote "Tomb Raider" at the right time.

After all, Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin Qingxia are specifically here to promote. As the host of "Late Night Interview", Lucas naturally has to help say some good words.

"Before the interview begins, let's take a look at the trailer for Tomb Raider. I heard it was newly cut?"

"Yes, this was specially edited for the program "Late Night"."

Lin Daoqiu nodded.

"Oh... I didn't expect that Mr. Lin could do this for me. I'm so touched. In that case, let's watch the latest trailer of "Tomb Raider"."

The thirty-second trailer is indeed completely different from those previously shown on TV stations.

In fact, many people in the audience in front of the TV have never seen this movie. It was not until this that they knew that such an awesome movie was being released.

After the trailer was played, there was a burst of warm applause, and some people even stood up from their chairs.

"Lin...Lin...Lin..."

Everyone shouted Brigitte Lin's name, and she looked really embarrassed.

Compared with the audiences in Xiangjiang and Baodao, people here in Hollywood are more courageous to express their emotions and they are more enthusiastic.

"Thank you all for liking this drama. As an actor, I really appreciate you all."

Lin Qingxia stood up and wanted everyone to nod and thank her.

For an actress in the Chinese film industry, becoming famous in Hollywood is not an easy task.

Even if you want to participate in a big Hollywood production, it is not easy.

That is to say, in later generations, due to market relations and the promotion of sponsors, Chinese stars appeared in some films.

But there are almost zero Chinese female stars with real box office appeal in Hollywood.

In this life, Brigitte Lin became the first female star to truly have box office appeal in Hollywood, although she is still in her early stages.

But even so, the achievements she has achieved at this time are already difficult for anyone to match, and this is just the beginning.

The interview lasted about half an hour, and Lucas did not embarrass Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin.

After he slightly humiliated Longmeyer because of "Home Alone", he was later slapped in the face.

However, at the end of the show, Lucas still chatted with Lin Daoqiu about the topic of the next drama.

"Mr. Lin, I remember that it has been almost two years since your last movie "The Mummy" was released in Hollywood. I wonder if your next movie will also make the audience wait for two years?"

Regarding Lucas's question, Lin Daoqiu smiled and shook his head.

"In addition to "Tomb Raider" this year, I have another movie that will be released during Christmas."

Now that this topic has been discussed, Lin Daoqiu naturally has to advertise for "Godzilla".

"When did Mr. Lin become so efficient? Can you talk about that new drama?"

Lucas seems to be very curious about Lin Daoqiu's new drama.

"This new movie is a monster-themed movie that I spent about three years filming."

"Monster theme? Is it a movie like "King Kong"?"

If he was just curious about Lin Daoqiu's new movie before, Lucas immediately became interested when he heard that the other party was filming a monster-themed movie.

"The movie's name is "Godzilla" and it cost $150 million to shoot."

When Lin Daoqiu finished saying this, everyone present, including Lucas, opened their eyes wide.

Spending 150 million US dollars to make a movie is simply unheard of. You must remember that this was still Hollywood in 1984, not the era of later generations when billions of dollars came and went.

"Oh my God, 150 million to make a movie? Mr. Lin, are you kidding me? This is simply unbelievable, my God..."

Lucas kept exclaiming there, and not only him, but also the audience at the scene were frightened by what Lin Daoqiu said.

"'Godzilla' will be a special effects movie that transcends the ages. The special effects in this movie will be unheard of."

As soon as Lin Daoqiu talked about the movie "Godzilla", he showed a very confident expression on his face.

After all, people in this era who are willing to spend 150 million US dollars to make a movie can be counted on one finger, and he, Lin Daoqiu, is one of them.
