October 1st.
The whole of China was celebrating and the event was extremely lively. All the media were reporting on the circumstances and details of the military parade and the flag-raising ceremony. The atmosphere was filled with joy and prosperity.
In stark contrast to the jubilation in China, Hollywood on October 1st was filled with a sense of impending storm.
And these feelings started with two tweets!
Yes!
When all the media were paying attention to the record-breaking box office of "Batman", no one could have imagined that Century's CEO Andrew and Cobia's CEO Wilson posted two tweets at the same time.
Andrew: "On the evening of October 1st, the company will officially announce something that will shock the entire film industry. If you don't come, you will regret it!"
Wilson: "On the evening of October 1st, the most expensive movie in Hollywood history, with the most luxurious lineup, is about to kick off!"
As soon as the two tweets were sent out, they were screenshotted, reposted, and commented on by countless people...
Hollywood, which had been relatively calm, was suddenly swept by a huge wave!
After all the media saw these two similar tweets, they instantly smelled a scent of explosive news.
after all……
Neither Andrew nor Wilson had ever posted such shocking news on Twitter.
So, what are they going to do?
Not long after these two tweets were sent out, almost all well-known Hollywood media received an invitation letter.
Even before the media had carefully digested the contents of the invitation, Lorraine, the director of "Titans," the second-highest-ranked of the four Hollywood films, suddenly and without warning posted a tweet.
"On the evening of October 1st, I will announce the start of filming of my new movie. Don't ask me what kind of movie it is. If you really want to ask, I can only say that this is one of the four movies I will use to impact Hollywood, and it is also the movie that will soon become the number one movie in the world!"
One stone can cause a thousand ripples!
Everyone was scrolling through Roland's Twitter in disbelief. After confirming that the tweet was correct...
The international film industry exploded!
he!
Are you finally going to take action?
"Titan" once set an astonishing global box office record of one billion US dollars. At the Oscars, "Titan" won all the nominated awards it could get. At the official awards ceremony, it won all the important awards!
All film critics and fans call the movie "Titan" a true watershed in the history of Hollywood science fiction movies, and a true blockbuster unprecedented in the history of Hollywood science fiction!
Since "Titan", Hollywood has truly ushered in its own science fiction era, and subsequent Hollywood science fiction films have officially exploded, shocking the world!
Loran, he is not just a director, or rather, he is a supreme god in the hearts of all directors!
Of course, after "Titan", Lorraine gradually stopped making movies.
Someone once asked him whether he would make a new movie.
His answer was very simple!
I won't leave the mountain now.
However, if he encounters the right script and the right actors, and when he is confident that the movie he is shooting can surpass "War and Roses" to become the world's number one, he will definitely make an official announcement.
Although Lorraine was already 45 years old when he filmed Titans, he was already 50 years old when it was released.
But no one questioned what Roland said, and no one thought that Roland would retire!
Everyone is waiting for Loran’s new movie, waiting for Loran to create a new miracle, and this wait has lasted for ten years!
Yes, it has been exactly ten years since "Titan" was deified.
In the past ten years, countless talented directors have emerged one after another. Like meteors, they have left their own marks in the history of film. Some of their films have exploded in box office and reputation and are called classics, some are called comparable to "Titan", and some film directors have been deified because of this...
However, in the past ten years, no science fiction movie has ever surpassed "Titan", and no director has ever boldly said in the media that he has reached the level of director Roland. Even Andor, who was just starting out, did not dare to say anything arrogant when talking about Roland with endless respect, but instead called him "Teacher Roland"...
Actually!
In terms of world director status, Director Lorrain is no less than Director Nino, who made the world's number one film, "War and Roses".
Both are on equal level.
so……
Director Lorraine is going to make a new movie, so what does that mean?
This means that Lorraine’s new film is confident that it will surpass “War and Roses” and become the world’s number one!
So……
October 1st evening!
etc!
When the international news and entertainment media linked this to what Andrew and Wilson said on Twitter, everyone suddenly realized that something big might really be happening in Hollywood!
Of course, you think that's the end?
No!
No!
"On the evening of October 1st, I will be playing the leading role in a movie!" Lyon, one of the top Oscar winners, announced another big news on Twitter.
"On the evening of October 1st, when I received the script, I knew it was an unprecedented attempt. However, I felt an endless desire deep in my heart. Perhaps, I was witnessing history. At the same time, I was lucky enough to be one of the key figures in making history!" Oscar-winning actress Erin also posted a tweet.
"I can't describe what kind of movie this is, but I can feel that this is the pinnacle of my life, the pinnacle I've been pursuing! On the evening of October 1st, here I come!" Oscar winner Cage Osborne also tweeted...
“…”
“…”
Just half a day.
Many well-known movie stars posted a tweet at the same time. In addition, some of the most famous artists from all over the world also released news about October 1st in major media.
Everyone expressed the same idea.
That is...
They would make for a great movie!
There will be a character in this movie.
The media went crazy.
They thought this was a big deal in Hollywood, but now they found out they were wrong.
This isn’t a Hollywood thing, but…
A major event in the world film industry!
Loran, with his new movie, is coming with great momentum!
The record of "War and Roses" is about to be broken, history...
About to be born?
…
"Hello, Mr. Andrew. Is what you posted on Twitter this morning true?"
"Hello, Mr. Andrew, can you tell me in detail about Century Company's next arrangements?"
"Hello, I heard that Century Company invited Mr. Lu Yuan from Remote Entertainment and others to the new movie launch conference. What is the purpose of this? Will there be any conflict?"
"Mr. Andrew..."
"Excuse me, how much is the total investment for this first joint film between Century and Columbia?"
“…”
noon.
A luxurious extended version of Lincoln stopped outside Chaos Theater, the largest theater in the United States.
Then……
Andrew slowly got out of the car.
When the reporters saw Andrew, they felt their blood boiling, and then they swarmed around Andrew, asking him a series of questions frantically.
When Andrew saw everyone's questioning expressions, he smiled slightly and a hint of mystery flashed across his face.
Lights, lenses, cameras, countless voices and distant screams surrounded Andrew.
In fact, he enjoyed the feeling.
"There are still seven hours until evening."
“No one will be disappointed!”
"However, I am sure that Mr. Lu Yuan will be there!"
“…”
“…”
After leaving this sentence, Andrew turned and walked towards Chaos Theater.
The reporters looked at each other.
They both saw a hint of excitement in each other's eyes.
Then they looked at the majestic plaza of the Chaos Theater…
They were a little dazed!
…
"Ayuan, have you seen the news?"
“I have.”
"Andrew and Wilson have made a big splash this time. I got the news that the total investment in this movie is estimated to be over $500 million!"
"Five hundred million dollars?"
"Yeah! And, this is a movie directed by Loran, so the power of this movie is absolutely terrifying!"
“…”
When Lu Yuan heard such an astonishing number of words from Zhou Shuai, a huge wave rose in his heart.
If it was 500 million RMB, Lu Yuan could still accept it.
But five hundred million dollars!
Oh my god!
Isn't this crazy?
There was no movie with an investment of 500 million US dollars in the original world. Even if the earlier conversion ratio was used, "Cleopatra", which was known as the movie with the largest loss in history, did not have such a crazy investment!
In the original world, even "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" had an investment of less than 400 million US dollars!
Lu Yuan fell into a trance.
Five hundred million dollars!
Oh my god!
Director Loren...
The god of science fiction directors.
he……
What kind of movie do you want to make?
"Ayuan..."
“…”
"Ayuan?"
"Ah, what's wrong?" Lu Yuan was in a daze for a long time before he heard Zhou Shuai's voice.
"I think we should just go..." Zhou Shuai, standing in front of Chaos Theater, hesitated for a long time and finally shook his head.
"Leave? Why?"
"This time they are trying to intimidate us. With such a terrifying lineup and investment, no matter how powerful we are, we can't compare to them!" Zhou Shuai, who has always been lawless, now has a very solemn expression.
"Yes, Ayuan, let's go. Andrew and Wilson will definitely target us at this press conference. It seems that this is really a Hongmen Banquet. I think we should leave..." Fatty Wei, who had been following the two of them with a complicated look in his eyes, finally spoke.
Lu Yuan looked around the theater.
Then he looked at the two people behind him.
After an unknown amount of time, he shook his head.
"Go in. It's not appropriate to accept an invitation and leave halfway..."
Then, Lu Yuan took the lead and walked towards Chaos.
The two people behind looked at each other, and finally nodded and followed.
However, every step closer to Chaos Theater, they felt uneasy...
Just at this moment.
Another car stopped.
Then...
"Mr. Lu Yuan?"
"Mr. Wilson?"
“…”
“…”
