Metropolis: I’m Really Not A Prodigal Son

129. The Prototype Of The Slow Movie Universe

Many of Manwei's mid-level and senior managers were not too surprised by Gaoshanshan's decision.

For example, the copyright of "Blade Runner" sold by Slowway was made into a movie and earned US$70 million at the box office.

The film company's share of the money given to Slow was only US$25,000.

There was also the Spider-Man copyright sold to Sony, although only one "Spider-Man" was filmed

The box office revenue reached an astonishing US$800 million.

Spider-Man originally only sold for $7 million, which is obviously a day.

So Manwei has long wanted to set up a film and television company and shoot his own superhero movies.

But a very real problem is before them.

No money!

Coupled with the company's constant loss of money, it can only fall into a vicious cycle and continue to sell superheroes.

Therefore, after changing to a new boss, not selling heroes and choosing to make movies by ourselves is a very correct choice for "National Eight Seasons".

Just when these middle and high-level people were thinking about which hero series they were going to make.

Gao Shanshan directly dropped a bombshell.

Build the Avengers organization and make movies in the form of TV series.

Although many superheroes intersect with each other in comics.

But in the movie, it's a completely new idea.

No one had ever done this before.

So someone asked, "Mr. Gao, is it too risky to do this because no one has done it before?"

Gao Shanshan said: "It is precisely because no one is doing it, so we have to try to be the first to eat crabs."

Everyone saw that Gao Shanshan looked less determined.

It seems that this new boss is not afraid of the movie failing.

In this case, what are they afraid of?

So everyone began to discuss how to gather the Avengers and how to make this type of movie.

Everyone said something to each other, colliding with each other's ideas.

Many of the people here are not only managers of Slowway, but also fans of Slowway comics.

I have a natural understanding of many plot characters in comics.

Soon a big frame came out.

They call it the Slow Cinematic Universe.

This common world, like the slow universe in comics, is established through crossover works with common elements, settings, performances and characters.

And it belongs to the same officially recognized multiverse as other comic, movie and animation series.

The first phase of the Slow Power Cinematic Universe to become Avengers Assemble.

Four main heroes were selected from all the existing heroes in Manwei.

Mainly tells the origin of the hero.

But in this origin story, there is a thread that connects all the movies.

At the same time, you can also find a few heroes who are not particularly popular.

In the four main hero movies, guest paintings were performed.

At the end of the first stage, these four Avengers attack together.

I've already thought of a movie title, and it's called "Avengers".

As for the four origin heroes, as well as the supporting heroes, they have not yet been decided.

They only gave a few alternatives, including Doctor Strange, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Black Widow, etc.

Finally, Gao Shanshan re-summarized the key points of the meeting into a document.

He arrived at the door of Mr. Jia's temporary office and knocked on the door.

After he came in, before he could say anything, he heard Jia Shoufu say: "Do you know where Harvard University is?"

Gao Shanshan was stunned, "Mr. Jia, why do you want to ask Harvard University?"

Jia Shoufu said helplessly: "I just said casually on Q that I am in the United States."

"My friends didn't believe it, so I told them to take a photo, and they said they found it online.

"Unless I take photos at Harvard to let them see what this famous university is like."

Gao Shanshan's head is full of black lines.

Mr. Jia is really leisurely and relaxed.

"Haval is not far from the New York International Airport. It only takes more than three hours by car."

Jia Shoufu looked at the time and it was around 11am.

"Then help me find a driver. I'll go there now."

Jia Shoufu was unhappy when she was questioned just now. Today she insisted on going to Harvard to take photos and upload them to the group.

These country bumpkins know how to see.

When Gao Shanshan saw Jia Shoufu insisting on going, he immediately went out to find a car for him.

"Mr. Jia, let me go with you. I can report to you on the way.

"What job?"

"That's what you mentioned about the Avengers today."

Jia Shoufu asked in surprise: "You did it in one morning?"

Gao Shanshan shook his head, "It's just a framework, but many things inside need to be decided by you."

"Okay, let's talk O…………………… on the way

On the way to Harvard, Gao Shanshan briefly explained the framework of the morning discussion.

Jia Shoufu was greatly surprised after hearing this.

This concept of the slow movie universe is really good.

If this structure is successful, it can be directly transplanted to form the Chinese Mythology movie universe.

After explaining the concept, Gao Shanshan handed the few heroes he had prepared to Jia Shoufu for inspection.

Jia Shoufu looked at the names of heroes such as Doctor Strange, Iron Man, and the Hulk.

Asked: "Among these heroes, which ones do you recommend?"

Gao Shanshan said: "Most people recommend the Hulk, followed by Captain America, and then Thor..."

Jia Shoufu keenly discovered that Iron Man was ranked last.

"Why doesn't everyone think highly of Iron Man?"

"Because people think he has no characteristics."

"Secondly, his copyright has been transferred to multiple film and television companies, but no one is willing to film it."

"Everyone thinks there is no market for Iron Man."

At that time, the film and television adaptation rights of Iron Man and Hulk were sold to film and television companies.

Compared to the much-loved Hulk, Iron Man has gone through several twists and turns. The company has changed to three companies, but no movie has been made.

Later, the rights to Iron Man were sold into the 20th century.

In the 20th century, they hoped to make it into a blockbuster film and began to attract investment and cast a wide net.

However, the result of attracting investment was that the film was not made.

Many directors believe that Iron Man does not have the power of Superman next door. 1.7 also doesn’t have the people-friendly features of Spider-Man.

As an ordinary person, he does not hate evil as much as Mr. Bruce Wayne next door.

Mr. Stark is "a willful playboy, a billionaire adventurer, a madman."

Jia Shoufu heard Gao Shanshan and briefly talked about the past and present life of Iron Man's copyright.

His eyes lit up.

Since everyone is not optimistic about it, it means that it will definitely hit the street when it is filmed.

"Let's film Iron Man first. When we get back, we can prepare the script and recruit actors."

Gao Shanshan thought he heard wrongly, "Mr. Jia, you mean you want to shoot Iron Man, not the Hulk?"

Jia Shoufu nodded and said, "Yes, what's the matter?"

"But no one is optimistic about this hero."

Jia Shoufu said calmly: "That's enough for me to be optimistic about him.".
