Chapter 254 Set sail 2

The person who asked the question in the end was not an ordinary reporter, but a host of NBC TV.

Just like the premiere of "Jurassic Park", Ryan sold the broadcast rights of the red carpet and the subsequent press conference to NBC. The movie invested so much money and could not implant advertisements. Of course, he had to do everything possible to recover the investment.

He is not just a famous actor, but is still a famous Hollywood film investor. Investors who do not value profits and returns are definitely not qualified investors.

Moreover, with "Jurassic Park" first, the crew's contact with NBC TV hit it off.

You should know that the crew, film companies involved in investment and production, as well as major studios, have tried their best to invite a large number of celebrities. It is no exaggeration to say that if someone blows up the Chinese theater, Hollywood will definitely fall into a trough, and it will be difficult for years to turn over.

Since it was a question asked by the partner, Ryan would naturally cooperate.

"In my opinion, the so-called historical record has only one function." He paused, and after the surroundings were completely quiet, he said, "That was broken by later people."

"So do you think "Titanic" can break the record of "Jurassic Park"?" Many reporters' eyes lit up.

"Of course! There is no doubt."

Ryan was extremely confident, and took Nicole's arm and turned toward the theater.

"Ryan, how many box office do you think you can win in the first week?"

"My bottom limit is..." Ryan raised his hand behind his back and stretched out a slender finger, "100 million US dollars!"

“Wow~”

Although he might say so, after Ryan's voice came, the reporters immediately fell into madness. They ignored everything else and wanted to take out more exciting news from him. Nearly a hundred people were in a fan shape, like half of the sea water at high tide, rushing towards Ryan and Nicole.

Without looking back, Ryan also knew what effect his words would bring. He hurried a few steps with Nicole in his arms and walked into the wall set up by the security staff.

Although the human wall blocked the reporters, the chaotic scenes made the entrance of the theater chaotic, and the crew had to cancel the routine group photos and retreat into the theater as soon as possible.

"Ryan, you messed up our photo and should be compensated."

Kate Winslet, in gorgeous clothes, joked while walking, "We are like a group of deserters. Or deserters defeated by reporters."

"Can we make up for it later, or do you go and drive them away?" Ryan's words made the crew laugh.

Entering the front hall of the theater, there are celebrities everywhere, including big stars in front of the stage, producers behind the scenes, senior executives of the film company, and even people like Michael Eisner who are not very good at dealing with Ryan, accepted the invitation.

After all, this is an unprecedented blockbuster, with information feedback from all aspects. It is very likely to achieve unprecedented success!

What others think and what they think. Ryan can't control it, but he himself is full of confidence.

The movie is excellent enough, not inferior to the previous life. He also specially placed the premiere on Wednesday night. He not only invested a huge amount of money in publicity and marketing, but also almost achieved the best of today. Whether in the North American market or major overseas markets, the shadow of the Titanic can be seen everywhere.

The crew also has several other advantages, the most typical one is Ryan himself. The influence and appeal he now has are definitely not comparable to that of Xiao Li in the same period in his previous life.

Having said that, why Ryan had to film "Cat and Mouse Game" before this movie, restoring popularity and strengthening his appeal is one of the reasons.

Since others are willing to support the show, whether it is sincere or not, Ryan, as the host, has to be polite. When he roughly walked around the hall and returned to Nicole, the Australian girl was talking about something with Linda Hamilton.

From Linda Hamilton's expression, it can be seen that she seemed unhappy and was just forcing her to smile.

In fact, Ryan could guess some of the crew members were too chores, and some situations would inevitably be heard. Perhaps she noticed the romantic affairs of James Cameron. She could tolerate it until now, probably because she wanted to save the relationship for several years.

Unfortunately, being fond of the old and old is a common problem for all men in the world.

Nicole talked to the other party for a few words, and when she saw Ryan, she came over and asked with a smile, "Are you tired?"

“A little bit.”

Socializing was a laborious activity, so Ryan simply pulled Nicole to a quiet corner, "Fortunately, we are just one of the masters."

The movie is a joint investment, and it is not just Jenkins Pictures who invite guests.

It seemed that he had not heard Ryan's words, Nicole's eyes fell on James Cameron and Linda Hamilton not far away, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.

"It seems that something is wrong between Linda and Jim."

"It's normal. After all, there are only a few men who can withstand temptations." Ryan didn't care much. Hollywood's breakup and reunion was normal. "Jim is talented and capable, and she is still a big director in Hollywood, and women take the initiative to pursue him..."

"Ryan, are you talking about yourself?" Nicole interrupted, his light blue eyes flashing, "or are you looking for reasons for yourself?"

"I..." Ryan's eyes turned and he carefully tentatively said, "Nicole, you know, this circle is very complicated. If... I mean, what if..."

"No if, and no if." Nicole's tough character finally showed up. She did not give him any reason or excuse. "If such a thing really happens, you'd better pray that you can hide it from me for the rest of your life, otherwise..."

Nicole grinded her white teeth, and the warning and severity were self-evident.

"Ryan, I believe you won't let me down, right?" After the stick, there was a sweet date, and Nicole looked like I trusted you very much.

I was so confused that I actually asked such a stupid question! Ryan cursed himself in his heart, not knowing what to say.

He can deal with everyone hypocritically, but he doesn't want to deceive two people who have grown up with him. He is just the man's turbulent heart...

Nicole stared at him, as if waiting for a promise, and seemed to want to see something from it.

"Hi, Ryan, and Nicole."

The woman's greeting sounded like a natural sound to Ryan, and he quickly turned his head, "Hello, Charlie."

"Hello, Charlize."

The moment the two women shook hands, they frowned at the same time, and smiled at socializing at the same time.

"Although I haven't seen the preview, I believe it will be a masterpiece." Charlize Theron obviously didn't mean to leave immediately, "I heard Stephen say you took over his role in the next movie?"

"Ryan, Harvey is here." Nicole pulled his arm without hesitation.

He made a sorry gesture to Charlize Theron, Ryan turned his head and saw Harvey Weinstein, the big fat man, leading the other fat man, coming towards him and Nicole.

Another person who came to the door on his own initiative? Ryan smiled a little.

"Ryan, this is Peter Jackson, a director from New Zealand." Harvey Weinstein introduced both sides, "Peter, this is Ryan, this is Nicole."

"Let me think about it." After the two sides exchanged greetings, Ryan tapped his head with his finger, "I should have watched your movie, "The Clans of Corpse Playing Through the World", is this the name?"

"Yes!" Peter Jackson nodded, but his bearded image was indeed a little worse. "That was a movie a few years ago. In fact, I had contacted Ms. Pie? Kingsley last year..."

"I know." Ryan reached out and interrupted him, "Is it "Lord of the Rings" right? Peter, frankly, I will not transfer the right to adapt the movie."

Only idiots will sell the adaptation rights of this movie when CG technology is becoming increasingly mature. Not to mention anything else, the seller at the time had long regretted it and gave up the potentially greater benefits for the sake of huge immediate benefits.

"My studio can make a short film about five minutes, about Lord of the Rings, and then you make a judgment, Ryan, believe me, I can turn this great novel into an equally great movie."

To some extent, Peter Jackson can be regarded as a brainless fan of The Lord of the Rings.

"Let's do it, Peter, I've been busy with publicity recently and may not have any free time. Let's talk about specific things when I wait next month or later." Ryan doesn't want to make a wedding dress for others. "The only producer of the movie is Jenkins Pictures, and I won't give up the copyright."

"Ryan..." Harvey Wayne Stefan spoke first.

"Harvey, don't be so greedy." Ryan joked casually, and then asked seriously, "Did you confirm that Miramax has enough funds to invest in two trilogies at the same time?"

Needless to say, Harvey Weinstein also understood that this must be a big investment and production. Unless it takes a big money to borrow money, Miramax will not have so much liquidity.

"Okay, Ryan, I'll wait for your call." Peter Jackson breathed a sigh of relief.

He had looked for Pi Jinsley several times before, but the other party had no intention of talking. He finally got on the line from Harvey Weinstein and came directly to Ryan Jenkins. It was indeed the right choice.

"So, Jenkins Pictures is going to make a big move again?" Nicole said after thinking about it, "The funds may be tight."

"Dear, after the release of Titanic, we will have hundreds of millions of liquidity."

The time was almost over, and Ryan took Nicole into the theater. Their seats were all around them, and most of them had never seen the sample. They were nervous and expectant at this time. If this movie really set an unprecedented record, they would also become part of the record.

The lights of the ceiling went out one after another, and the openings of Paramount, Jenkins Films, Miramax and Twentieth Century Fox lit up on the big screen one after another. Amid the ethereal chanting, a yellow old shot recreates the Titanic and Southampton Harbor!

At that time, the largest giant ship in the world, known as never-sinking, began to set sail!
