Another World Under My Pen

"...Another big production with more than one billion dollars at the box office, and not a cartoon!"

In the office of Shakolu Pictures, Richard? After Feynman looked at the box office data in his hand, he couldn't help but frowned: "I looked at the box office trend. Although this movie has been released in most countries, there are only a few margins left. Jiao Jiao’s small market, but the final global box office of this "Hurricane Rescue 2" is at least 1.5 billion U.S. dollars... And there is no doubt that after the baptism of this movie, I think Laobai’s movie will be Recognized in more countries!"

After listening to an old friend, Charles? George smiled excitedly: "It seems that we have to negotiate with our partners to increase the promotional fee for The Matrix! There is Lotus Pictures in China and Asia. We don’t need to worry, but Europe and In North America, we must go all out!"

According to the original plan, the cost of publishing "The Matrix" is only $50 million.

Of course, this is properly the standard for big productions.

But if you only look at the ratio, the publicity cost is only half of the production cost, and the ratio is not very high. So now after seeing the results of "Hurricane Rescue 2", regardless of Richard? Feynman or Charles? George was a little jealous, and he further understood the huge potential of Lao Bai's script, and naturally thought of the means to increase the cost of publicity.

"Yes, it is really necessary!"

Nodded slowly, Richard? Feynman looked solemn.

It hasn’t been long since "The Matrix" was released, and the entire film has already been produced. Both of them have seen the effect, and the reviews are very high. Now that the "Hurricane Rescue 2" super-high box office bonus has been added, their confidence in the new film has suddenly increased a lot!

The male protagonist is an American, while the female protagonist is Huaxia, which is equivalent to "The Matrix" sitting on the two largest ticket warehouses in the world, North America and China. What else is there to fear?

It is imperative to increase publicity costs

only……

Look at Richard? Feynman’s expression found that he had been frowning since just now, as if he was worried, Charles? George blinked and asked curiously: "Old friend, what do you seem to be worried about?"

"..."

He shook his head with a tangled look, Richard? Feynman didn't say much.

However, after repeated questioning by Mr. President, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Charles, don't you feel the pressure? The pressure from the Chinese film!"

"Pressure? Chinese movie?"

Hear Richard? What Feynman said, Charles? The smile on George's face disappeared, and his expression became serious.

"Yes, I feel the pressure of a mountain!"

Nodded, Richard? Feynman got up from the sofa, walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the president's office, looked at the scenery outside the window and said solemnly: "If I haven't thought about it too much before, then watch the movies of the past two years! "Bourne's Identity 2", "Kill Bill", and this "True Lies"... I remember that even the "Hurricane Rescue 1" two years ago took tens of millions of dollars in North America Box office, right? And there is also the "Sixth Sense" that we collaborated with Liang Ren, and this "The Matrix"..."

"God, what you say is true!"

Richard? After Feynman's words, Charles? George's eyes became round in an instant, and he exclaimed!

I don’t think one by one, but now I summarize...

Licking dry lips, Charles? George raised his brows and said: "Richard, you mean we should contact that old white quickly to discuss the next collaboration after the release of "The Matrix"? God, the reality of this guy is amazing, I'm afraid Hollywood Can't find a screenwriter comparable to him, right?"

"Uh……"

What an old friend said, Richard? Feynman's face turned black for a moment.

Yes, he does have this idea.

If he hadn't considered the next cooperation with Lao Bai, then he would not have any qualifications to serve as an executive of Shakolu Pictures. It's just... that's not what he wants to express now!

"Haha..."

Looking at Richard? Feynman looked helpless, and the friend who had already walked to him couldn't help laughing.

Taped on the shoulder of a dumbfounded friend, Charles? George also looked at the bustling world outside the window, and took a deep breath: "I understand, Richard, I understand! China's movies have indeed progressed very fast over the years, and the speed at which they have gained world recognition is also amazing. ……Laobai is just one of the best among them, but I have also seen that although other filmmakers are not as good as it, they are making steady and continuous progress! At least in the Asian market, the share of Huaxia Movies is constantly increasing. The expansion of the world can already threaten Hollywood!"

"No, more than that!"

Shook his head, Richard? Feynman frowned and said: "If it's just the progress of filmmakers, in my opinion, what is even more terrifying is China's capital power! They have acquired movie theater lines all over the world, even in North America. Two large theaters... Did you know? Now the North American theaters controlled by China Capital Capital account for 7% of the total!"

"Yes, I know this too!"

After a moment of silence, Charles? George nodded slowly.

As the president of Shakolu Pictures, he knows more about the power of capital than his old friends, and he also understands their horrors better! Especially when the capital that controls these theaters comes from a powerful country, they can easily operate their own movies and release them on a large scale in North America. As long as the quality of the movie is good enough, it will definitely get good box office results!

This is the case with the previous Chinese costume giants, and the same is true for Laobai's modern action movies.

Moreover, compared with Hollywood, the Chinese films that are developing in large strides may lack experience and accumulation, but they seem to be more dynamic-this is completely in line with the general law of the development of things, and it is not at all after one or two filmmakers recognize it. Changeable.

"Moreover, Laobai's strength is not only in live-action movies!"

After a moment of relative silence, Richard? Feynman continued: "A "Spirited Away: The Hidden Spirit" has made him the top representative of Chinese animators in Japan; "Frozen" has almost broken the global box office record of animation movies. , And at the end of this year, his third animation blockbuster "The Lion King" is about to be released... Do you know? Capoca has already negotiated a release in more than 30 countries, with the name laobai making its debut. This is simply a trivial matter!"

Hear the names of the first two animated films, Charles? George was also shocked!

Shakolu Pictures does not do animation, but it does not mean that they do not understand the huge influence of animated films. As the most suitable movie type for family viewing, the value of animated movies is not only in the box office, but more importantly in various peripheral products and other derived values.

Just like the most powerful animation company in the United States, Kennedy Park is a place that children all over the world yearn for.

So listened to Richard? After Feynman's words, Charles? George frowned and said solemnly: "Richard, do you mean... Laobai's animation is the scarier thing?"

"Yes, if the box office of "The Lion King" is successful again, then I firmly believe that!"

Nodded vigorously, Richard? Feynman said sternly: "And I just got the news that Laobai's new book in China is also for children... Unlike the previous picture books, this time it is a full text book, and it is a series!"

"..."

Richard? There was a moment of silence after Feynman's words, Charles? George suddenly asked: "Where is the English version? Is there an English version of this book now?"

"No, I haven't seen it yet."

Shook his head, Richard? Feynman said: "The Seal Press, which previously cooperated with Laobai, has no relevant news, but I heard that this new book is about traditional Chinese wizards. Maybe they think it is not suitable for Western readers?"

"Wizard? Is it like a magician?"

"Yes! So I think this laobai has great ambitions!"

Nodding, Richard? Feynman smiled bitterly and said: "You must know that the stories of magicians have always been one of the children's favorites, and they endure in the Western world! Fortunately, Laobai's new works are purely Eastern culture, so the publishers Are you hesitant?"

"Really? I hope so!"

After the same pondering for a moment, Charles? George asked suddenly; "So... Richard, do you think we should continue to work with that laobai? After the completion of The Matrix?"

"Of course! Why not? We can't get along with money!"

Obviously, I was worried just now, worried about Hollywood and American animated films, but really Charles? When George asked about this, he immediately laughed: "And will China Film catch up or even surpass it in the future? That's a matter for the entire United States. What does it have to do with Sakolu Films? All it takes is to seize the gold mine in the county seat of Laobai, earn more box office, and drive the company's stock up!"

"Hahaha..."

Looking at the way an old friend raised his eyebrows, Charles? George suddenly laughed again.

He was worried just now, worried that the other party would give up this cooperation because of the previous concerns, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary to think about it.

Yes, that is not something that my company needs to consider.

And no matter what you think, there may be a long, long time before that day, and now you just have to do your own work...
