Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

When those reporters heard what Brigitte said, it was basically impossible for them to continue asking any more questions. After all, it was impossible for them to help Brigitte pay hundreds of millions of yuan in compensation, because they would not be able to make much money from this news alone.

Of course, the reason why Brigitte Lin said this was all taught to her by Lin Daoqiu. The purpose was to prevent those reporters from continuing to pursue this issue.

However, although there is no actual answer, Brigitte Lin's statement actually answers this question from the side, that is, her salary is not as high as everyone said, breaking tens of millions. It must be at least several million, but as for how much

A million is unknown.

"Tomb Raider 2" was officially released a week before Christmas, and the screen allocation of 3,500 yuan was MGM's high-standard preparation for this movie.

This is not the first time for Brigitte Lin to spend Christmas in Hollywood, but for her, compared to the Spring Festival, although the atmosphere of Christmas here in North America is very strong, she still prefers to spend the Spring Festival at home, because that is her

festival.

And not only Brigitte Lin thinks this way, but Lin Daoqiu also thinks the same as her. They are not interested in Christmas. Even though the atmosphere on the street is very strong, they don't think they have anything to do with this holiday.

"Where are you going to spend Christmas this year?"

Lin Qingxia snuggled into Lin Daoqiu's arms and asked softly.

In fact, she doesn't care too much about where to spend Christmas, the most important thing is who to spend it with.

"I guess I can only stay in LA, at least until the Spring Festival."

The filming preparations for "Spider-Man" and "Captain America" ​​have just begun, and even if Lin Daoqiu wants to leave, he will have to wait until these matters are dealt with before he can leave.

And Lin Daoqiu also has to keep an eye on the progress of "Power Rangers", because this movie will be MGM's first special effects blockbuster next year, and it will also be the first movie starring Brad Pitt. Lin Daoqiu has

Check it carefully.

When she heard that Lin Daoqiu was staying in LA for Christmas, Brigitte Lin seemed a little depressed, but she could also understand why Lin Daoqiu made such a decision.

After all, "Tomb Raider 2" is still being released, and as an actor who is the protagonist, he should stay here.

"By the way, how much do you think the box office of Tomb Raider 2 will be?"

As the protagonist of "Tomb Raider 2", Brigitte Lin certainly hopes that the box office of this movie can be as high as possible, because this will allow Lin Daoqiu to earn a large amount of US dollars, which will ease his financial difficulties in acquiring Columbia Pictures.

pressure.

"Richardson has talked about this topic with me before. He guessed that the global box office of "Tomb Raider 2" will reach 1 billion, but I don't think it will be that high, probably around 600 to 700 million.

.”

Lin Daoqiu's box office was 300-400 million less than Richardson's prediction, but it was not because he was not optimistic about "Tomb Raider 2", but because in his opinion the potential of this movie was so great.

It is obviously impossible to attract more people to the theater without the blessing of special effects.

If even a movie like "Tomb Raider 2" can get over one billion at the box office, then Lin Daoqiu thinks that "007:M" might also be able to break one billion by then, but this is just a beautiful idea.

Hard to come true.

"One billion dollars? I don't think it's possible. It seems like Richardson is a little too optimistic about Tomb Raider 2."

Brigitte Lin and Lin Daoqiu basically have the same idea, but she also feels that the box office of "Tomb Raider 2" should not be as high as Richardson said.

At this time, the phone next to him suddenly rang. Lin Daoqiu reached for the phone and called.

Lin Qingxia, who was nestling next to Lin Daoqiu, heard Richardson's voice on the phone.

"The first-day box office of "Tomb Raider 2" has been released, and it reached 23 million US dollars on the first day."

This box office result is already very good. If it can be maintained, the box office of this movie in the North American market after more than a month of release should reach around 300 million predicted by Lin Daoqiu.

"Very good. If you think it's necessary, you can increase the intensity of publicity. You can decide these things."

Lin Daoqiu feels that the potential of "Tomb Raider 2" has almost been released. If the third part does not have a big breakthrough, then I believe "Tomb Raider 2" will be the highest-grossing film in this series.

Department.

Of course, if Lin Daoqiu is willing to let this movie go for more than ten or twenty years before remaking it for nostalgia, then the box office results will definitely be very satisfactory.

"I think we can still increase publicity efforts. I think this drama still has a lot of potential that can be unleashed."

"No problem, just decide."

After putting down the phone, Richardson immediately asked the people in the publicity department to increase the promotion of "Tomb Raider 2". This time he added an additional three million in publicity fees.

Even if "Tomb Raider 2" failed to rise to a point that satisfied Richardson in the end, as long as it could maintain its current box office trend, MGM was already making a lot of money, with a mere three million

The publicity fee is simply not worth mentioning.

Although Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin said they would stay in LA for Christmas, in the end he decided to take Brigitte Lin to visit other cities in North America.

When LA was already cold enough to wear a coat, Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin had already gone to Miami to spend Christmas.

Compared with the cold in LA, Miami here is much more welcoming. Although it is not as hot as in the tropics, the weather with a minimum of more than ten degrees still makes Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin feel a lot more comfortable.

Lin Daoqiu's yacht has also been brought over in advance, so Lin Daoqiu takes Brigitte Lin out to sea almost every day in Miami these days.

"I am Lin Daoqiu..."

When Lin Daoqiu was still at sea, he suddenly received a call from Richardson from LA.

"I have good news for you. The single-day box office of "Tomb Raider 2" has increased to 35 million, and it has accumulated a box office of 120 million."

Richardson on the phone had a trembling voice when he said these words, and Lin Daoqiu could clearly feel the excitement revealed in the other party's tone.

"Well done, increase your publicity efforts, maybe your premonition will come true this time."

Lin Daoqiu did not feel any dissatisfaction because his prediction was wrong. After all, the better "Tomb Raider 2" sells, the higher MGM's income will be.

If "Tomb Raider 2" really breaks Lin Daoqiu's previous predictions and gets a global box office of over 1 billion, it will really be a Christmas gift for him.
