440 Chapter 437 "Resident Evil" Series (2) (1/2)
Paul Anderson is very pleased with the support of Lyman's view.
Putting aside the shackles of the game, it was a relatively unassuming step for him.
He is a little afraid that after losing the ashes of the game fan market, ”Resident Evil” can make money.
But after thinking about it, his movies can't always refer to games.
If the version of the game is not updated or unpopular, don't the movie series of ”Resident Evil” have to stay in place?
Especially after seeing the success of original scripts such as ”A New York Trip”, Paul Anderson is more determined to overthrow and rebuild the film's follow-up shooting plan.
As soon as the two communicated, Paul Anderson's attitude towards Lehman was getting better and better, but he did not say anything about cooperation.
Lehman didn't know what Paul was thinking, and thought he was embarrassed to open the investment.
So he hinted: ”How much budget do you think this movie needs. Is the funds enough?”
”The budget will not be much, and the actors' pay will be very low. A conservative estimate is less than 50 million, which should be enough.” Paul Anderson grinned.
Well, he opened his own studio, and he will also participate in the investment in the ”Resident Evil” series, and his fiancée's film remuneration is based on the box office plus the basis, and the box office share is the bulk. The basic salary is not very much, and it is further The cost of shooting is reduced, and as for the other actors, the cost is even lower.
You know, ”Resident Evil” is an absolute heroine, otherwise it will not be taken by Paul, and it will be adapted into a work to praise his girlfriend.Perhaps, in these 50 million, the actors paid less than 10 million, and they also spend money on special effects and scenery.
Moreover, they are very good at controlling budget costs, and in many cases they can get film policy subsidies from the UK, Germany, and France.Those employers still have some strength.
”Then if I want to invest a sum, are you willing?” Lehman said suddenly.
”what?”
Paul Anderson was a little dazed.
He has never thought about the investment of Laleman.
With his contacts, there are too many ways to get funding for filming. In order to maximize profits, he even found three film companies to produce together.
What is afraid of is the decentralization of power.
After all, if the funds are controlled by one family, the producer will not have much say.
He also occupies less than 20% of the copyright of the ”Resident Evil” series. It is under many checks and balances that he is now the number one project.Even so, he often compromises and is not so tough.
However, he may be born with this bowl of rice.
This kind of operation is far better than many film newcomers.
Don’t you see, when Cameron was not yet well-established, even how he made and edited the movie was not based on the face of the employer. He often needed to get angry and threaten in order to barely achieve a certain goal.
And like Wen Ziren and Lehman, they met a very good film senior to lead the way, so they can get on the right track quickly.
Otherwise, it might be like Cameron, step by step.
Of course, Cameron survived very quickly. After ”True Lies”, he has basically determined his status as a tyrant.
