"Mr. Ye, the movie "Star Wars" you invested in was completed more than two months ago. Why haven't you seen it be released yet?" Another reporter asked with concern.

Because "Star Wars" has invested up to $8 million in advance, for Xiangjiang media, this may be the biggest investment in the moviemakers in Xiangjiang, so they naturally pay more attention to its box office performance.

"Oh, Star Wars is a science fiction movie that requires a lot of special effects, so post-production is time-consuming." Ye Jin nodded, "To be honest, in addition to the eight million dollars invested in the early stage, I subsequently invested another five million dollars."

"Wow, that's going to be 13 million dollars?" The reporters all jumped when they heard this.

One thousand three million US dollars, about 100 million Hong Kong dollars. In 1976, such a large sum of money was simply an astronomical figure for ordinary people.

At that time, a [Thousand-Foot Luxury Mansion] was only sold for HK$200,000 to HK$300,000, which was cheaper than the houses in many county towns today. It was 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and it was able to buy 500 [Thousand-Foot Luxury Mansion], which shows how strong its purchasing power was.

Ye Jin actually invested so much money in a movie, which is really a heroic act!

"Mr. Ye, after investing so much money, aren't you worried about losing money?" the reporters continued to ask.

Although Ye Jin has created box office miracles many times, and since his debut, all movies have almost never lost money. However, there is no inevitable thing in the entertainment industry, and General Yum also has times when he is straitors.

Just like Steven Spielberg will have a slightly failed work like "The Dream of the Giant". "Terminator 3" produced by James Cameron himself is not recognized by the audience.

Therefore, the reporters were both shocked and worried about Ye Jin investing so much money to film a movie.

Ye Jin smiled slightly when he heard this.

In his previous life, "Star Wars" sold for $770 million, making it the most popular movie at the box office at that time, no doubt about it.

Therefore, not to mention investing 13 million US dollars, even if investing 130 million US dollars, Ye Jin makes money, so he naturally doesn't worry about the box office and is willing to invest.

However, these words cannot be said to outsiders, even if they do not involve [Time Travel Spoiler].

The so-called gentleman is a metaphor for righteousness, and villains will benefit! In the traditional concept of Middle-earth, gentlemen will not talk about money all the time. People who talk about money, money, and money will be considered to be full of money and will be fond of it.

Therefore, the older the boss, the less money he talks about. It seems that Ma Yun once said that he never touches money, money is useless and has no interest in money.

"I'm not worried about losing money." Ye Jin smiled and said, "I'm very lucky. I've made a lot of money in just three years since I debuted.

Money is heroic courage! This money also gives me a lot of courage, making me dare to make movies I like. The movie "Star Wars" is something I think I must make.

First, its story is really exciting, and second, compared with current movies, it uses a large number of innovative technologies. These technologies are likely to affect the development of world movies in the future.

This movie has such great significance, so even if it is a loss, I am willing to invest in this movie."

He spoke passionately, and the reporters present didn't know his true thoughts. When he saw that he was risking losing money in order to shoot his favorite movie, he couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

...

After the interview, the reporters were sent away and the filming of "Fang Shiyu Sequel" continued.

"Mr. Ye, you really invested 13 million US dollars to make a movie?" Yuan Kui asked in surprise.

The investment in Hong Kong movies is generally no more than 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. Only big directors like Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, Li Hanxiang, and Zhang Che dare to invest million Hong Kong dollars to film.

Ye Jin's movies actually invested 13 million US dollars, which is about 100 million Hong Kong dollars. That much money is enough to make 200 movies.

To be honest, the cost of all the movies shot in Hong Kong last year may not be enough for HK$50 million. Therefore, Ye Jin invested 100 million Hong Kong dollars to film, which is an unprecedented and shocking feat.

"Don't be shocked. In Hollywood, movies invested by over 10 million US dollars are not something you can see everywhere, but they are also common." Ye Jin smiled, "The platform is different, the starting point is different. If you have the opportunity, you go to Hollywood to take a look, and then you won't be so shocked."

He had seen a story before. When the Qin Dynasty prime minister Li Si was young, he worked as a minor official in the warehouse. One day he noticed that the mice in the warehouse were all fat and shiny. In comparison, the mice in the toilet were thin, dry and dirty.

From this, he understood the principle of [environmental transformation], so he quit his job as a minor official, studied around the world, and eventually became the prime minister of Qin, with a strong power.

Ye Jin knew that if he was not a time traveler and had not developed in Hollywood, he would be shocked by the investment of 100 million Hong Kong dollars like Yuan Kui.

But now he is on a higher platform and has a broader horizon than others. 100 million Hong Kong dollars investment is, in his opinion, ordinary.

"Go to Hollywood?!" Yuan Kui's eyes lit up when he heard this.

To be honest, he had never thought about the development of Hollywood before. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't.

In his opinion, those who can go to Hollywood should be outstanding top figures like Ye Jin and Bruce Lee.

However, Ye Jin's words ignited a spark in his heart.

"Mr. Ye, do you think I can go to Hollywood?" Yuan Kui asked immediately.

"Of course." Ye Jin smiled.

If he remembers correctly, in his previous life, Yuan Kuike and Luc Besson collaborated on many movies. For example, the "Extraordinary Human Trafficking" series was directed by him.

"But although the Hollywood platform is higher, the competitive pressure is greater." Ye Jin encouraged him again, "If you want to develop in Hollywood, you must first hone your skills. When you can become the first in Hong Kong and then develop in Hollywood, there should be no problem."

Hollywood brings together elite talents from all over the world, and the competitive pressure is far beyond that of Xiangjiang.

It seems like beauties like Jessica Alba, Megan Fox, Dennis Richards, box office superstars such as Johnny Depp, Nicholas Cage, Will Smith, etc., it is also said that it is out of the blue.

In comparison, the four kings of Xiangjiang have been named in the 1990s and have been ranked first in the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang. This phenomenon is simply impossible to occur in Hollywood.
