Chapter 3177 The Whole Nation Is Waiting
"Boss, you can't take this money less. Now the scene is so big, you can't take it back. You must pay me! Otherwise, I can't do the construction! In the United States, you can't delay wages!" Tom guessed that Lin Feng might have no money when he saw his face. But now it's hard to get off the tiger. He must hold on.
Of course, in fact, if it is completed in three years according to the initial calculation, without using high-end materials such as composite metal and composite asphalt, the cost will be at most about 70 billion US dollars. In that case, it will only cost more than 20 billion US dollars a year. Lin Feng's funds are not a problem at all. However, a million workers and a one-year construction period make the price go up. Of course, if it's just that, it doesn't matter. But composite metal and composite asphalt are too expensive. Without these two items, it would definitely take less than 100 billion US dollars to complete this unprecedented and greatest building in the history of architecture. Unfortunately, this is a film shooting base, and all scenes must meet the principle of being able to be repaired at any time, and composite metal and composite asphalt must be used. Therefore, the cost is almost half more expensive.
"Tom, I don't have so much money on hand now. So, I'll give you 30 billion US dollars first. Three months later, I'll give you another 30 billion!" Lin Feng thought for a while and said. No matter how expensive it is, this composite metal must be used. This money cannot be saved.
3 months! Tom Wright fiddled with his fingers on the calculator and calculated it hard, and nodded reluctantly. Three months, this 30 billion is barely enough. After all, for such a large project, wages cannot be delayed, but those materials can still be delayed for a while.
"By the way. Boss, what do you want?" After Tom solved his own problem, he remembered that Lin Feng had just said that he had something to ask him.
"That's it. Tom. Do you think these movie scenes can be adapted into a real-life game scene?" Lin Feng asked.
Real-life game? Tom muttered a few words.
"Well. I think it's not very useful as a movie shooting location. If it is made into a real-life game like 'Real-life CS', it will be more interesting and can also open up new sources of income. But I'm afraid that it needs to be modified during the construction process." Lin Feng said.
"Boss, this problem is not big. There is no need to modify anything in terms of architecture. We just need to add some sensors for game sensing. This is simple. I think the trouble is in the game mode. I can't give any advice on this." Tom shrugged helplessly. He is just a construction engineer, not a game engineer. He really can't provide any advice on this. All he can guarantee is that there are no problems with the building hardware.
"Well, since there is no problem with the hardware, then I understand." Lin Feng nodded. This is indeed something Tom Wright can't intervene in. Lin Feng asked him, just to know if there is a problem with the hardware. Since there is no problem with the hardware, it's fine.
Then,
Lin Feng announced on Weibo that the first two episodes of "Infinite Horror" have been filmed and will be premiered worldwide in a week. Among them. China will adopt the TV premiere, and other regions will choose to premiere in cinemas. By then, everyone can enjoy a cross-era masterpiece. And those film companies can see what benefits there are in filming movies in the "Windy City".
What! "Infinite Horror" has been filmed! Once the news was announced, it was reposted by thousands of netizens. No one expected that "Infinite Horror" would be filmed so quickly. It was completed in less than half a month. This was too fast. And it will be broadcast live worldwide in a week. This is simply unbelievable.
Anyone who has read the book "Infinite Horror" will know that it contains many superpowers, countless superpowers, which is a very headache for the computer special effects team. It can be done in a week. Is this a bit exaggerated?
——Lin Feng is bragging again! He boasted before that he would build a "Windy City" in a year, and now he boasts that the computer special effects production will be completed within a week. Now he is no longer called the God of Wind, but the God of Water!
Adam, a reporter from the Washington Times, criticized.
Although there are many comments like Adam, more viewers are looking forward to it. After all, whether it is bragging or not, at least before this, Lin Feng has never boasted about anything, and he has done what he promised. So, this time, before the final result comes out, the audience has reason to believe that Lin Feng will succeed!
"See, this is the value of credibility!" Lin Feng laughed as he looked at the millions of messages on Weibo, "Feng Shen, I believe in you" and "Feng Shen, I support you." Although there are some vicious attackers among them, for Lin Feng, there are so many people supporting him and believing in him, what do those rumors on Weibo count for?
A week of waiting time is long and short. Lin Feng wandered around the construction site every day, watching the "Windy City" being built day by day, with infinite expectations, and then took a stroll on the set, waiting for this masterpiece to be completed day by day. At night, he flew to Avril's "Dream Villa" to rest. The days were quite comfortable. I didn't feel that the time was long at all.
But for those fans who have been looking forward to "Infinite Horror", these seven days are so long. Almost every second is counted on their fingers. There is no way, they have read the book and it is good, and the game is also in their expectation. Now the only thing that can satisfy their cravings is this TV series.
One day, two days, time just passed by without rush or panic. Time will not speed up or slow down just because you pay attention to it or not. Time will always pass silently.
Finally, it's time to release. Tomorrow, the world will premiere.
At this moment, Hollywood.
"Everyone, what do you think of this "Infinite Horror"?" Doug Neil held a cigar in his mouth, with a tangled face.
If "Infinite Horror" is too popular, it will prove that Lin Feng's "Windy City" has something to recommend it, and those film production companies will defect. Especially now in the "Windy City", the huge spaceship is lying there, which is really an eyesore. To be honest, if it weren't for the hostile relationship between the two sides, Doug Neil would want to go over and see the magic of this spaceship.
Now interstellar movies have always been very popular in the market. Such a huge spaceship, so futuristic, is definitely the best background for shooting science fiction movies, which will save a lot of trouble. He is like this, let alone those small film production companies.
"For now, no one knows. I have read this novel. It has a grand scene and is a very interesting novel, but it is also very difficult to shoot. I doubt whether director Wu Yusen is capable of completing such a shoot. However, Lin Feng has hired two gold medal directors, Spielberg and Cameron, and other directors of the original drama to assist. It's hard to say! If it succeeds, we will be very passive!" said Alan Horn, president of Warner Pictures.
Everyone was silent.
"I think everyone, we don't need to worry too much. Although Lin Feng's "Infinite Horror" may be very successful, very successful, we don't need to be afraid at all!" Samsung Pictures President Lee Boo-jin sneered and was not moved at all.
"Lee, what do you mean?" Everyone turned around and looked at Lee Boo-jin.
"It's very simple. You should know that for this 'Windy City', Lin Feng has mobilized a large army and millions of workers. How much will it cost? His costs will rise sharply. Although Lin Feng is rich, is his financial resources enough to support it? Also, you all see that Infinite Horror may be very popular, and I admit that. But you didn't notice the cost of filming this novel after it was adapted into a movie. Lin Feng spends $100 million per episode. Can he recover the cost? If he can't recover the cost, then even the most well-received movies will eventually be forgotten." Lee Boo-jin said word by word.
Doug Neil nodded. Indeed, this is the truth. Making movies is to make money, not to do charity. In the history of movies, countless well-received but unpopular movies ended in a hurry. Especially for this kind of series of movies, or TV series, in Hollywood, if the ratings of this episode are not good, and the next episode is still not good, there may be no third episode. Even if the script has been written, the contract has been signed, and all the actors have been invited, it will be gone if it is said that it will be gone. This is also the reason why many American TV series are broadcast one episode a week. Because this can minimize costs.
No matter how popular Lin Feng's "Infinite Horror" is, if it doesn't make money, it can't be filmed.
"One movie is not enough. Isn't there a team from many countries in his "Infinite Horror"? When his movie comes out, whether it is a hit or not, we will use the media to promote it and let Lin Feng shoot a series of episodes of teams from different continents. Let Lin Feng spend more money. We will use the pressure of public opinion to make him lose money. Isn't his credit rating the highest in the world, A+? This is his advantage and his weakness. He can't live up to the expectations of fans. He can't live up to them, so whether he loses money or makes money, he must hold on. We will use this to make him lose money! Moreover, he has many enemies. We can contact them and attack together! Let Lin Feng be overwhelmed! This guy, he is surrounded by enemies, he won't be proud for long!" Lee Boo-jin said coldly.
Compared with other film companies, the competitive relationship between Lee Boo-jin and Lin Feng is more intense. After all, the first of Samsung's global layout strategy is the Chinese market. China is the world's most populous country, and all kinds of Samsung products are competing for this market. Although Lin Feng does not have many electronic products, he will definitely be Samsung's biggest competitor in the future. Therefore, the one who wants Lin Feng to be finished the most is none other than Lee Boo Jin! Of course, it is impossible to easily finish Lin Feng. But Lee Boo Jin hopes to use the American film market to slow down Lin Feng's pace and make him have no time to take care of the Chinese market. So that Samsung can make plans! (To be continued.
