Chapter 1758 is well aware

Those in the United States who invest in movies are basically smart and have an extremely economic mind. They can settle accounts, and they settle accounts very carefully.

They feel that if you can recover the cost by investing so much money into a movie, it is a question whether you can recover the cost, not to mention that Cameron's filming cycle takes two to three years. So, there is really no meaning in their investment. Capital is profit-seeking, not good, or if they think that the cycle is long and the returns and risks are not in comparison, they will not do it.

There is another reason. They think that Cameron is a diving enthusiast. He has always been interested in a broken ship that sunk to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean more than 80 years ago. He dived down to shoot a few clips and was excited to make a movie.

It’s just that someone came up with a bad idea, saying that the record of the wreck is so boring, we restore its glory and give it a tear-jerking shipwreck story!

If you use this situation to measure it, and with Cameron's previous love film failure, naturally no major investors will invest in the movie "Titanic".

These investors think that even if Cameron's epic love story is placed in a grand background, it can be said to be a disaster scene. Will it definitely touch people?

In their eyes, people are selfish, and the love that transcends time and space, transcends money, etc. is false and fictional, and there is no such kind of love.

They think that the brain circuit of a straight male director like James Cameron should be very simple. The story of love or not being loved is really nothing to be seen. They believe that the love produced in ordinary life may be called love, and the love maintained with money is called love. Only such love will last. Most people's love is plain and ordinary. Such an aesthetic love story cannot resonate with the audience.

Even if such a love story can stimulate people's visual nerves and mind, even if it is a very novel creativity, it may not necessarily impress the audience who watch movies.

What about movies! In the final analysis, it is the art of visuals, and the core must be the audience. If the audience does not pay for such a thing, then the movie will have no investment value at all.

It is precisely for this reason that Cameron proposed to recruit people and invest in the circle, and almost no one talked to Cameron.

This is how investment is. Most people don’t talk about it and wait and see. Moreover, they feel that this matter is a bit irrelevant. I’m afraid Cameron will fail again this time, so Cameron lobbies the United States for a while, but has not received any investment.

Cameron and others don't want investments that exceed the bottom line of the film companies invested behind Cameron and Cameron, because they think that doing so is a very wrong thing.

The film company behind Cameron invested more than $100 million. Even if Cameron didn't see any splashes in advance, it would still be a long time since the funding was still there. Therefore, Cameron and the film company behind him were not too anxious. It is particularly worth mentioning that they had two cooperations with Li Zhongxin before, and the cooperation was quite smooth. As long as they found Li Zhongxin, it is estimated that this matter would be successful.

Old Ka! It’s not me that you have such a good idea and such an idea. Why not just tell me directly? If you tell me this matter directly, I personally invest in you directly. It’s great now. You have found such a film company with poor strength, and it’s not enough to make it. Why bother?

Li Zhongxin's words made Cameron feel very troubled, and he felt speechless about Li Zhongxin's wealth and ambition. What does it mean to find a film company that is not strong?

A film company can spend more than one billion US dollars to invest in a movie. Such a company is still called a company without strength? In that case, there will be no company with strength in the United States.

It’s not that Cameron had thought of asking Li Zhongxin to invest in the filming of the Titanic, but he had considered many issues, from qualifications to distribution and other things, all of which needed an American film company. It would be okay to ask Li Zhongxin to invest. If Li Zhongxin was allowed to invest, it would be impossible. That is, he made the movie and it was unknown whether the theaters in the United States could queue up to play.

Therefore, when Cameron wants to shoot a movie, the first thing he considers is an American film company, and Li Zhongxin can only be regarded as a spare tire. However, in this case, Cameron cannot say it to Li Zhongxin.

As for Li Zhongxin telling him that the pre-production of the movie has been rolled out, and the money there has been invested. It is not a good thing for me to intervene in now. Cameron was speechless. Whether it is "Terminator 2" or "The True Lie", Li Zhongxin invested and invested a lot of money. When he was dividing the money, Li Zhongxin did not have any less money. Jiujing Hashiko's contract and other aspects were done quite well, and he did not lose Li Zhongxin's share at all. It can be said that Li Zhongxin earned more money than he and the film company behind him. Moreover, Li Zhongxin basically did nothing, but invested.

Cameron knew very well that this was a pretext for Li Zhongxin, and it was nothing more than trying to occupy a higher share in the investment process.

As for Li Zhongxin's behavior, Cameron even sneered at him when asked why he didn't look for investors in the United States.

In this matter, Cameron knew very well that if he could raise such a large amount of money from the United States, why would he have come so far to talk about investment with Li Zhongxin?

"Loyalty and faithful! We won't talk about other things anymore, those things! They basically look like that if you say it or not. According to what you Chinese say, we can just talk about the share of cooperation.

In this matter, don’t talk big on your side, and we’ll give you some of it appropriately. At that time, except for the venue costs used by our film company and some other things, the rest will be divided according to your investment ratio.
