Chapter 317: with translation of chapter title translation
A short 2.5‑minute trailer.
They directly gave netizens the climax.
Each one, it's as if they'd taken drugs.
That said, the trailer is indeed impressive.
That blockbuster feeling hits you in the face.
After all, this trailer was personally edited by Lin Mo.
Here.
In the group, everyone also started tagging Lin Mo.
"@Lin Mo, Director Lin, your new movie is explosive! After watching the trailer I got that urge to go to the cinema right away!" Huang Bo.
"@Lin Mo, junior brother, tell us how much your new movie cost altogether?" Xu Zheng.
"Exactly, I'm especially curious about this!" Ning Hao.
"Judging from how exciting the trailer is, I estimate at least 300 million dollars!" Huang Lei.
"It should be more; Director Lin's British Duel apparently cost 200 million dollars back then..."
"400 million?"
"..........."
After everyone watched the trailer of Fast and Furious.
They all started wondering how much the film's production cost.
If it were a few days ago, when Lin Mo got busy, he really wouldn't have had time to check WeChat.
But now.
He is in the company's office.
The movie's trailer has been sent out; publicity on this side definitely can't be neglected.
Just now, Lin Mo also held a meeting with the publicity department staff.
Well.
As soon as he had a free moment, Lin Mo saw everyone in the group tagging him.
How much did it cost?
Lin Mo thought for a moment, then sent a voice message in the group: "Actually it's not much; the actors' pay isn't as high as in British Duel; the money was all spent where it counts; total cost is about 300 million dollars; mainly it's the cars in the movie, all provided by Lei, so no money was spent!"
Indeed.
For this film, the actors' salaries add up to only a few million dollars.
The rest was all spent where it counts.
Of course, this doesn't include the cost of car damage and repairs.
If you included those, it would definitely be more than that.
In Yanjing, Teacher Huang was watering flowers at home.
A ding-dong sound.
Seeing the group, Director Lin sent a voice message; after listening, he put down the watering can and replied: "As I guessed, it's about right; but if you count the written-off cars from your movie, it's probably over 300 million."
"Awesome, Director Lin is awesome; now movies are calculated in dollars!" Sun Honglei.
"Nonsense, you haven't seen Director Lin's net worth; saying he's the richest in the entertainment circle is unquestionable!" Huang Bo.
"We have no objection to that!" Xu Zheng.
"Agree!" Ning Hao.
"Agree +1"
Seeing those guys in the group teasing him, Lin Mo also laughed.
After putting down his phone, he also got busy with work.
As the boss of a conglomerate.
Although, usually most matters are handed over to Liu Qin.
But.
He is free now.
He should at least look at some company matters.
For example, earnings reports, and the progress of projects currently involving Morning Light Group.
Zhesheng, Dongyang Hengdian.
The production team of Joy of Life 2.
Zhang Ruoyun, Guo Qilin, Chen Yao, Yang Chaoyue, Xiao Tian and others were also discussing the Fast and Furious trailer.
Because after Joy of Life initially launched and became a hit, Liu Qin quickly rolled out the second season.
It is still being filmed.
With such a popular show, they definitely need to prioritize their own artists.
So Yang Chaoyue and Tian Xiwei naturally get a part.
After all, their historical costumes are also super beautiful, perfect for riding the hype.
"Watching Director Lin's new movie gets my adrenaline pumping!"
Zhang Ruoyun, after watching the trailer, couldn't calm down for a long time, excitedly sharing with everyone.
"Yeah, especially those two cars pulling a safe, barreling through the streets—I really want to see that part!" Guo Qilin also looked eager, echoing.
"My senior brother's movie—need I say more? When it releases, it'll definitely blow up worldwide!" Tian Xiwei laughed until her eyes almost turned into slits, saying proudly.
"Exactly, exactly, our boss's movie couldn't be lacking!"
"......"
They were chatting in full swing when suddenly, Zhang Ruoyun's assistant came running over, panting, and said: "Ruoyun bro, Xin Jie is here looking for you!"
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter and started teasing Zhang Ruoyun: "Yo, Tang Yixin is here! Haha, your fate is really amazing!"
Zhang Ruoyun also couldn't help laughing upon hearing it.
Everybody in the crew knows about his and Tang Yixin's affair.
Speaking of which, it's quite funny—they met because of a rear-end collision.
At the time, Zhang Ruoyun accidentally rear-ended Tang Yixin's car, and he never expected that this rear-end would also land him a girlfriend.
Every time he brings this up with friends, they laugh until they double over.
Dawei.
I don't know if everyone still remembers.
Mi Guo people, who grew up watching Long Shu's films.
Now he is a blogger on the YouTube network.
He usually posts some reactions to movies he watches.
Among his fans, Huaguo people are the most numerous.
So he often posts his reactions when watching Huaguo films, such as the recently recommended Kung Fu, Shaolin Soccer, etc.
Today, he suddenly learned that the trailer for Lin Mo's new film Fast and Furious has been released.
He hasn't watched it yet.
This works perfectly as an episode.
"Hello everyone, I'm Dawei, your old friend!"
"Lin Mo director, this name is definitely not unfamiliar to you, right? Last year we watched together the film British Duel, which was a work that made countless hearts race! And today, I want to tell you a super explosive piece of news—the trailer for Lin Mo director's new film Fast and Furious has arrived! It really has arrived!"
"......"
That's right, Dawei is speaking Chinese.
Because his fans, Huaguo people make up over eighty percent.
So he self-studied Chinese.
One could say he's really striving just to earn a living.
Recently he also registered an account on Douyin, and his fans now exceed 500,000.
After the opening of each video ends.
Dawei clicked on the trailer for Fast and Furious and began watching it seriously.
As soon as the trailer began, the roaring engine sound and tense, stimulating background music instantly captured Dawei's full attention.
His eyes widened instantly, completely captivated by every shot in the trailer.
"Wow! This opening!"
Dawei exclaimed, his hands unconsciously clenching into fists, his body swaying lightly to the music's rhythm.
In the footage, two cool sports cars weave through narrow streets, dragging a safe as they smash through everything; the scene is thrilling, Dawei watches without blinking, excitement flashing in his eyes.
"These effects, this action design—simply amazing!" Dawei couldn't help praise, his fingers jumping on the keyboard, ready to record his thoughts at any moment.
As the trailer progressed, more exciting shots came one after another.
Explosions, chases, high-speed drives… each scene made Dawei's blood boil.
At times he clutched his head and exclaimed; at times he jumped up from his chair, as if he himself were in the midst of that tense, thrilling scene.
"This is absolutely one of the films I'm most looking forward to this year!" Dawei shouted excitedly, his voice trembling from excitement.
As the trailer neared its end, when Lin Mo's director's name appeared on the screen, Dawei rose to his feet and bowed deeply toward the camera, as if expressing respect to Lin Mo.
"Lin Mo director, you've amazed me again!"
