Chapter 983: 20 Billion Gambling, Do You Dare?
Seeing that Xiao Yunhai didn't answer his own questions, but instead told Kerry about him and scolded Huai, this made Hilda Weaver a little annoyed.
Even though he knew that this was the other party's revenge for not shaking hands with him, he still felt very shameless, his face was burning, and he said, "Young people are really arrogant and must retaliate. It's just that they have made two or three good films, and they are arrogant. Big, don't respect seniors, no wonder Huaxia movies are not good until now."
When Xiao Yunhai heard that he insulted Huaxia Films, a surge of anger rose to the sky, and said, "Our Huaxia Films are indeed somewhat different from Hollywood. No way, our development time is too short. But even so, all Hollywood films The company still spent 1.4 trillion to buy the original Huaxia theater chain. Why? Because Huaxia has a population of 1.5 billion and has a development potential no less than that of the United States. Since Mr. Weaver looks down on Huaxia, he can completely ignore it. Put the movie on us and show it. It doesn't matter, one more is not more, one less is not more. There is one more thing, I want to tell you. The film special effects technology used in Hollywood today is my magic special effects company and fantasy special effects company. It was developed, if you really want the backbone, don’t use our special effects in the future. Like you said, Huaxia movies will not work.”
Hilda Weaver said angrily: "You are deliberately misinterpreting my meaning. Hmph, I heard that you made a "2012", which is called the first 3D movie in history, and even threatened to surpass mine. "Battle of the Aliens", you..."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and interrupted him, saying, "What I'm talking about is not only to be number one in the box office, but also to exceed $15 billion at the box office."
Hilda Weaver couldn't help laughing when she heard this, looked at Xiao Yunhai with a look of disdain, and mocked, "Young man, you really don't know how high the sky is."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Young people in the 21st century should dare to think, speak, and act. If you don't even think about it, you don't dare to do it, then the whole society has no future to speak of."
"Well said," Kerry exclaimed.
Some young artists who heard Xiao Yunhai's words also had their eyes lit up. It was obvious that Xiao Yunhai had spoken to their hearts, but because of Hilda Weaver, it was difficult to express it.
Hanks next to him suddenly laughed,
Said: "The two of you don't need to argue about this. Facts speak louder than words. Mr. Xiao, Mr. Hilda Weaver has just joined our Paramount Film Company. It took two years before the filming of "" "Resident Evil" is in the post-production stage at Paramount's special effects company, and it is estimated that it will be completed at the same time as your "2012". If you are interested, do you dare to compete with us?"
Hilda Weaver was obviously very confident in her movie, nodded and said, "That's right. It's useless to talk about it, the most important thing is to see how the box office is? Since it's the first 3D movie, That should not be afraid of any challenges."
"Damn, this is forcing Kung Fu Xiao to fight in the ring."
"Hilda Weaver spent two years in order to film Resident Evil. The script alone has been changed dozens of times. It can be said that it was carefully produced. It is very difficult for Xiao to win."
"I don't think so. "2012" is the first 3D movie, the effect should be far better than 2D, maybe it can beat "Resident Evil""
"Hehe, there is indeed a good show to watch. One is the king of Hollywood commercials, and the other is a super young director who has risen in the past two years. The competition between the two is definitely Halley's Comet hitting the earth."
"On the day they set the schedule, it is estimated that no director would dare to release a movie at the same time."
"The duel of kings. If reporters film this scene, it will definitely get a promotion and a salary increase."
Seeing that Xiao Yunhai didn't speak, Hanks said proudly, "If you don't dare, forget it. After all, even if Mr. Weaver wins, in the eyes of outsiders, it's just bullying. There's no brilliance."
Xiao Yunhai suddenly sighed, shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that there are people who are not afraid of death and dare to touch my "2012". Mr. Hanks, Mr. Weaver, I can tell you responsibly that in this There is no film in the world that can compete with my "2012". Mr. Weaver's "Resident Evil" took two years to make, and don't end up failing miserably because of a moment of contention."
Xiao Yunhai's words aroused exclamations from everyone present.
"Kung Fu Xiao is too confident."
"No, he's not confident, he's arrogant."
"It's just that I've made a few movies, so I dare to say that there is no movie that is the opponent of "2012". Hehe, he really is young and energetic."
Weaver was amused by Xiao Yunhai, and said, "Mr. Xiao, you are the most daring director I have ever met. Since that's the case, then we will book a time to release it all over the world at the same time, based on one month's box office. High and low. However, since it is a competition, there must be a lot of luck.”
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I really need a lottery, otherwise, I wouldn't have any interest in competing with you at all."
Hanks stretched out two fingers and said, "How about two billion dollars?"
"I rely on, no, two billion dollars."
"This gamble is a bit too big."
"For Shaw and Steyer, $2 billion is a drop in the bucket."
"I wonder if Xiao dares to agree?"
"Huaxia people have always been good-natured, Xiao will definitely agree."
Although Liang Hui next to him was the protagonist of "2012", he filmed it from beginning to end, and didn't think the movie had anything outstanding, so he stood up and advised: "Clouds, don't be impulsive."
Ye Yongren also persuaded: "Yes. "2012" only took two months to shoot, while "Resident Evil" took two years to shoot, the two are really incomparable. Yunhai, don't do it just to compete for the length of the moment. Something uncertain."
Although Hanks didn't understand Chinese, he could tell from the expressions of the two that he was trying to persuade Xiao Yunhai not to participate in the competition, and sarcastically said, "Mr. Xiao better listen to your two partners, so as not to lose in the end. cry."
"Hahaha."
Everyone at the scene couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Yunhai's face turned red, as if he couldn't stand the ridicule of everyone, he pursed his lips, and said, "I am also a billionaire after all, and I bet you two billion dollars, I really can't afford to lose this person."
Hanks snorted and asked calmly, "How much is Mr. Xiao going to bet?"
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and stretched out two fingers as well, with a hint of slyness in his eyes, and said, "Mr. Hanks, if you want me to take over this game, at least $20 billion is needed."
"boom."
Xiao Yunhai's words instantly detonated the entire venue.
"No. Xiao is crazy. Two billion dollars is too little."
"Twenty billion dollars, God, this should be the highest gambling game in the world, right?"
"I think Xiao is using $20 billion to force Mr. Hanks to give up the gamble. After all, Hanks is only the CEO of Paramount, and he can't afford $20 billion."
"That's right. In this way, Xiao can both save face and blame Hanks for the problem. It really kills two birds with one stone."
Even Ye Yongren and Liang Hui thought that Xiao Yunhai had the idea. Although they were a little worried, they didn't speak. They looked at Hanks nervously, for fear that he would agree.
Hanks hesitated when he heard that Xiao Yunhai raised the wager to 20 billion US dollars.
This is not a small amount. For him, the CEO of Paramount, 2 billion dollars is still within his management scope, but 20 billion dollars is not enough. You can only agree to it yourself.
There was a triumphant smile on Xiao Yunhai's face, and he said to Hanks: "I was wrong. I shouldn't have said so much nonsense to you. After all, our status is not equal. For me, don't say two hundred Billion dollars, even if it is 200 billion dollars, I have no problem at all. But you and director Weaver obviously don't have this ability. I bet you, I have lost my identity."
Kerry laughed aside and said: "Mr. Hanks, Director Weaver, the awards ceremony will start in 20 minutes. Since the two of you can't get $20 billion, please go back. Me and Mr. Xiao still has a lot of things to discuss."
Hanks' face was ashen, and he said angrily: "Xiao, you don't dare to bet with me at all, right?"
Xiao Yunhai folded his hands and said, "Is there anything I dare not gamble on this movie that can reach 15 billion US dollars at the box office? It's just that you have no money. There is no way, you can't see a check of 20 billion US dollars, I'm not going to play with you. I'm a billionaire, and it's only a mere two billion dollars to make a bet. I feel ashamed to say it. Kerry, don't you think?"
Kerry nodded and said, "That's right. Let me say, if you can't afford to gamble, leave quickly and don't block others' way here."
Hanks stared coldly at Xiao Yunhai's eyes, as if he wanted to see him thoroughly. After a while, he suddenly laughed and said, "Xiao, I will report to the headquarters now, I hope you Don't regret it."
Xiao Yunhai narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I will only wait until the awards ceremony is over, and I won't wait until it expires."
Hanks smiled and said, "That's what you want. Hehe, thank you in advance for your $20 billion, I'll use it to build a movie theater."
Xiao Yunhai sneered and said, "You better ask quickly, so as not to be embarrassed in front of the world's filmmakers if you can't come up with the money later."
Hanks snorted coldly and returned to his place with Weaver.
The stars in the venue turned their heads when they found that there was no lively watching.
