Chapter 1601 Be a fool
McConaughey and others were stunned.
They have been working on the script for many years, and the investors they meet are either not interested at all, or are picky or desperately suppressing the price. This is the first time that an investor like Li Rui has met.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
Li Rui did not pick on the story, did not interfere in the staff arrangements, and did not even ask about their shooting plans, just for how much they need. Then, based on the price they asked for, he planned to pay more without cutting the penny?
Bowden patted his forehead and asked Warek in confusion: "Melissa, am I hallucinating again?"
Melissa Warreck shook his head and said, "I don't know, I seem to have hallucinations too..."
Only McConaughey knew Li Rui a little, knew that the Chinese people in front of him were rich and even willing to invest in the film "Artist" that knew he had lost all his money, so he invested in the "Dallas Buyer Club" on a whim. It's not something that cannot be understood.
While sighing that the Chinese people in Hua were really rich, McConaughey said, "Li, are you kidding, are you really willing to invest in this movie?"
Li Rui said: "Do you think I'm a joke? But I have a condition. I need to send a financial officer to follow you to make sure that every dollar you spend is used to make movies. I am an investor, I am not a philanthropist , I'll give you money, and you want to see a wonderful movie, a movie that can win an Oscar!"
"No problem!" Realizing that Li Rui was not joking, but was really rich, Brenner smiled and said, "We will spend every dollar on the movie, I promise!"
"Then let's make a price." Li Rui said.
Brenner said carefully: "Seven...seven million."
Li Rui smiled.
Sure enough, he is an unknown producer and is too timid.
If Harvey listened to Li Rui's conditions, he would probably dare to ask for 100 million!
"I'll give you 10 million magnesium. If it's not enough, I can still invest more. But remember my words, you must shoot according to your ideas and do it with the goal of competing for the Oscars, rather than casually Take your story out. Don’t forget that you have paid so much for it, so you should cherish this opportunity even more!” Li Rui reminded.
Li Rui introduced them to Yu Na, and Yu Na was directly responsible for the subsequent investment and financial review.
After Li Rui went to entertain other guests, Brenner whispered to McConaughey: "Have you ever seen such a person?"
McConaughey shook his head and said, "I have seen someone like Li Rui for the first time in Hollywood for so many years."
"I thought I was dreaming. Ten million... I couldn't even imagine that we could have a budget of ten million, and now we can do a big fight!" Brenner said.
McConaughey said: "It's time for me to lose weight..."
When Li Rui came to Dalula, she was being entangled by Cohen.
It's not the kind of entanglement between men and women. After all, Cohen may not use 12 packs a year, but another kind of entanglement.
"I think Elon will need it, you can talk to him. He is a smart man. I knew he would succeed as early as PayPal. He is doing well now, but he still needs to develop faster. Goldman Sachs has a lot of experience in this regard..." When Li Rui walked over, Cohen was talking endlessly. Although Dalula had already shown an impatient look, she could only listen quietly due to politeness.
"Hi, Gary, you're so disgusting." Li Rui spoke for Dalula, "Don't talk about your investment business at such a happy party, but talk about Hollywood gossip."
Cohen laughed and said, "Li, you don't understand this. At the parties in New York and Los Angeles, only fools talk about gossip. Really smart people are thinking about how to make big money! No one will think that there is too much money, otherwise how to buy it.
Can you afford such a big house?"
Li Rui shrugged: "Dalula, do you want to be a fool or a smart person?"
Dalula smiled and said, "I have always been a fool, so gossip is more suitable for me. Mr. Cohen, I'm so sorry. I can't wait to share some Hollywood gossip with Li Rui."
As they said that, they smiled apologetically at Cohen and walked to the side.
Cohen scratched his head helplessly and walked towards Bradley Cooper, saying very well: "Hi, Bradley, I heard that you have earned a lot of money recently. Are you interested in investing? Rate of return
Very tall..."
Li Rui and Dalula walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and saw Cohen talking nonstop selling 1HM Fund to Cooper, and they were all helpless.
"If he was not the president of Goldman Sachs, I would even suspect that he was a liar." Dalula said.
Li Rui said in surprise: "Don't the president of a company like Goldman Sachs be a liar?"
Dalula was amused: "It seems you don't like Goldman Sachs very much?"
"Does anyone like Goldman Sachs?" Li Rui asked back.
Dalula shook her head and said, "No one likes Goldman Sachs. They are hated as much as Franklin (100-dollar magnesium bills). But although we hate Goldman Sachs, we cannot lack them."
"Yes, this is the most unacceptable point in the world's operating rules." Li Rui sighed, "We hate him and cannot live without him. During the establishment of the r incubator, you will still fight Cohen a lot.
When dealing with each other, it is best to be mentally prepared first, but never introduce him to Elon, and never invest in any project he mentioned!"
Dalula smiled and said, "Do I look like such a stupid woman?"
After chatting with Dalula for a while, Li Rui came to Burns and Stamp again. These two people who should not have any contact were chatting enthusiastically.
Seeing Li Rui coming over, Burns said enthusiastically: "Li, we are talking about a small town in Pennsylvania, which is very suitable for the filming location of a movie that Lion Gate is preparing to shoot."
Li Rui said in surprise: "Penn. Is it the constituency of Russell Councillor?"
Stamp smiled and said, "That's right. There is a shipyard in his constituency, which has a strong mark of the old industrial era. It has been shut down now, and it is very suitable for some doomsday filming sites. I want the people from the Lion Gate to see it.
After that, I will definitely like it."
Li Rui said: "Burns, how did you shoot the documentary about the water purification program? The water purification program will be selected as a partner by the United Nations. I hope you can move faster!"
Burns said: "Documentaries are not movies. They take a long time to follow them. Please rest assured that if you give enough funds, we will definitely come up with a work that everyone is satisfied with."
After chatting for a few words, Burns went elsewhere, and Stamp said: "Lee, the documentary was very smooth, Claire was very satisfied with the Lions Gate team, and she was very grateful for your help."
"Please tell Claire for me that I am very honored to be able to help her." Li Rui said with a smile.
