Chapter 422 Spielberg's Purpose

When Zheng Yan returned to the vineyard, she found that Spielberg was visiting the manor with his wife Kate Capshaw and daughter Sasha. This made Zheng Yan regretful that he had to come back in such a hurry.

As early as a few months ago, Spielberg had contacted Zheng Yan, hoping to discuss the filming of "Titanic" with him. Zheng Yan had always changed the filming date of "Titanic" on the grounds that he was not in the United States.

Put off again and again.

It's not that Zheng Yan doesn't want to make "Titanic", it's really that Zheng Yan regrets it. In order to further win over Spielberg, he took out this script, but now Zheng Yan discovered that Spielberg

Not suitable for directing this movie.

Because Spielberg is particularly interested in extraterrestrial creatures, this also affects his movies. Among the movies directed by Spielberg, a large part of them show the contact between ordinary people and extraordinary people, or in the special world.

The search for self in the environment.

The film "Titanic" focuses on the portrayal of vivid characters, the control of macro scenes, and the application of various computer special effects. None of the above are areas Spielberg is good at.

Zheng Yan thought about it a lot. If he wanted to perfectly present the movie "Titanic", maybe James Cameron is the best choice. And the question now is how to do it without offending Spielber.

If there is a problem, take back what you said.

"Hi, Steven, long time no see." Although Zheng Yan didn't want to meet Spielberg now, she still said hello with a very warm look.

"Oh Zheng Yan, you're finally back. I heard Liu Wei said you went to Illinois. How was it? Did everything go well?"

After hearing Spielberg's words, Zheng Yan couldn't help complaining about Liu Wei's big mouth. As for the purchase of commercial rights to the Mosaic web browser, in Zheng Yan's opinion, the fewer people who know about it, the better. But that's good.

The only person who knows is Spielberg, a person who has basically nothing to do with the Internet.

As for how Spielberg knew the news about his return to the United States, Zheng Yan knew it without having to think about it. It must have been leaked from Liu Wei's mouth.

of.

"Not bad, it went smoother than I expected. By the way, why do you have time to come to my house as a guest? Your Dream Factory has just been established, don't you need to be in charge of it yourself?"

"It's really surprising that you actually know about DreamWorks, which I just established. But it's better this way. I'm here just for DreamWorks."

Spielberg had some understanding of Zheng Yan's acting style, so when Zheng Yan mentioned DreamWorks, Spielberg was very happy.

"Zheng Yan, I believe you still remember that when Long Teng entered the United States, it was with "Schindler's List". Now that DreamWorks has just been established, we also need such a film, so I want to cooperate with Long Teng to bring

"Titanic" was filmed."

He was really afraid that something would come his way. As soon as Spielberg's words came out of his mouth, Zheng Yan knew that something was going to happen. He was originally thinking about how to get "Titanic" back, but now it seems that there is no chance.

"Steven, you should know that I value the movie "Titanic" very much. I don't know how you want to cooperate?"

Spielberg didn't know what Zheng Yan was thinking. Seeing Zheng Yan agree, he happily said: "That's what I think. This time it will still be jointly funded by both of us, and then DreamWorks will be responsible for the distribution. The later profits will be shared with us.

We can make a concession, Dragon Soaring is six, we are four."

Having said this, Zheng Yan knew that Spielberg would direct "Titanic" no matter what. "You can just discuss the profit sharing with my third brother. I only care about one issue.

What do you think is the appropriate budget to make this movie?”

Although "Titanic" is not the most expensive movie in history, it is still one of them. If there is not enough investment, the effect of the film will definitely be greatly reduced, which Zheng Yan will never allow.

"I think 100 million US dollars should be about the same. You and I each contribute 50 million. The most expensive part of this film is the construction of the simulated ship hull. The investment in other aspects is not very much. If it exceeds a little, we can add more."

."

In today's Hollywood, it costs 100 million US dollars to shoot a movie.

It's already considered a big production, even Spielberg thinks so, but it's still far from Zheng Yan's requirements.

Hearing Spielberg's words, Zheng Yan shook his head and said: "Steven, 100 million US dollars is definitely not enough. I have already said that I have very high expectations for this film, and every detail must be refined.

Try to restore the sunken Titanic as completely as possible."

"At the beginning of the filming, we had to send people down to the depths of the Atlantic Ocean to inspect and film the Titanic. This part of the footage also needed to be added to the film. In addition, we also needed to conduct a survey of the Titanic based on the captured footage.

reduction."

"In addition, everything used inside the cabin, whether it is furniture, lighting, tableware, porcelain, or even a small carpet, must be customized according to the standards of the European upper class in the early twentieth century. This is

Never be careless."

"Also, the extras in the film must undergo a long period of training. Whether it is sitting, standing, conversational behavior, dining etiquette, etc., they must also meet the standards of the upper class at that time before they can be hired. In the film, absolutely

Discourteous scenes are not allowed."

"As for the appearance of the hull, it must be built one to one according to the original drawings. Of course, in order to save costs, we only need to complete half of it. We only need to use two sets of opposite text props when shooting, and then put

The complete hull can be pieced together by playing the movie upside down."

"In short, I only have one request: to give the moviegoers the illusion of going back in time, so that everyone feels that what they see in the movie is the real Titanic, and everything that happens in the movie is

A picture submerged in history.”

Zheng Yan doesn't care who directs the movie, but Zheng Yan will never allow shoddy production to happen. And thinking about it on the other hand, Zheng Yan has already watched "Titanic" directed by Cameron. If it were replaced by Spear,

Berg, maybe there will be different surprises.

It's just that Zheng Yan was only talking about himself and didn't notice at all. As he told the story, the expressions on Spielberg and Liu Wei's faces became increasingly ugly.
