Millennium director

The launch of a new series is definitely not something Wu Yuan and Elad can discuss in a few words. ׺°”˜˜`”°º×

But both of them were very interested in this plan and made a preliminary verbal agreement. After "Pirates of the Caribbean" is released, everyone will sit down and discuss it in detail.

Wu Yuan is not worried that after hearing the idea of ​​"Kingsman", Elad would dare to leave the Light Age and go it alone.

Are you kidding me? New Line is not the only film production company in Hollywood.

When Wu Yuan proposed this plan, he had already decided that regardless of whether New Line agreed to cooperate or not, he would move forward with the plan for the "Kings Agent" series.

The difference is that if New Line agrees, it will add the prequel "Rush Hour 3". If not, he will immediately turn to Fox or Universal to cooperate on the "Kings Agent" project.

Anyway, Light Times alone cannot produce such a large-scale series, and can only produce low-cost comedy series.

"Then let's settle it now, and we'll discuss it in detail later." Wu Yuan clinked glasses with Elad with a smile on his face, and the two of them drank the champagne in the glasses together.

During the lunch, neither of them ate much, but they were both very satisfied with the lunch event.

Taking advantage of the last moment, Wu Yuan ate something in a hurry. After barely filling his stomach, he followed the creative team of the crew and left the lunch room first.

He didn't forget about business.

Today is the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

When the luncheon ended, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon.

In an hour, the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean" begins.

The premiere was held right next to the Pirates of the Caribbean project in Disneyland.

Disney spent a huge amount of money to build a temporary screening hall directly in the square, using all the latest film film projection equipment. The entire screening hall can accommodate 1,200 people watching movies at the same time.

Film critics and some professional media who were invited to watch the movie were already checking their credentials before entering.

After Wu Yuan joined Depp, Jerry and others, the main creator of "Pirates of the Caribbean" entered the screening room through another internal passage ahead of others.

"Daniel, you will be on stage to give a speech as the crew representative later. Are you ready?" Jerry asked worriedly.

He was deeply afraid that Wu Yuan would speak arrogantly again and boast about something that would be difficult to achieve in Haikou.

"Of course I'm ready." Wu Yuan looked relaxed, "Jerry, don't worry, I've never been a person who talks nonsense."

"Don't you have confidence in "Pirates of the Caribbean" and don't you think this movie will be a box office hit?"

Can I say I have no confidence? Jerry cried in his heart.

For the first part of this series, his goal is really just to maintain capital. As long as he can maintain capital and accumulate popularity, and change the public's impression of pirate movies, the subsequent two sequels will have the capital to sell well.

As for the first movie being a hit, Jerry really couldn't imagine it being that good.

Otherwise, he would not have so readily proposed that if the first film's global box office could exceed 500 million US dollars, he would increase the director's fee for Wu Yuan, because he felt that this condition was impossible to achieve.

"Of course I hope it will sell well, but we should be more conservative in our predictions." Jerry said tactfully.

"Okay, I get it."

Seeing Wu Yuan's absent-minded response, KK, who was sitting behind them, covered his mouth and snickered. Why didn't he find the director so "rebellious" before?

More than half an hour later, Harvey Cotton led a group of the most important guests to the finale.

His presence also means that the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean 1" has officially begun.

After watching the VIPs who came with him sit in the second row, Harvey took the microphone and walked to the big screen.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon!"

"I'm Harvey Cotton, Vice President of Walt Disney Pictures, and welcome to the premiere of Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl."

"The preparation of this movie was really not easy."

"The idea for the film actually came from the theme park of the same name in Disneyland."

"Producer Jerry found "Shrek" screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Russio to get the script in place, and then began looking for actors and a director."

"In the end, we invited Daniel Wu, who is excellent in terms of box office and awards, to direct the film."

"Depp is joined by Orlando and our beautiful British girl Keira Knightley."

"Although this film tells a fantasy story, the creative staff did not slack off on the relevant historical background. We specially invited historian Peter Twist as a consultant."

"He imparted relevant historical knowledge to all departments of the crew, from the customs and dress details of the time to daily life, navigation and military conditions, etc."

"In order to make this movie successfully, every staff member on the crew did their best to complete the task in hand."

"I'm also honored that we finally did it and delivered a fantasy adventure to audiences around the world!"

"I hope everyone will like this movie and this new fantasy adventure world created by Disney."

"Well, I would like to invite Daniel, the director of this film. I believe he has a lot to talk to you about."

Wu Yuan put down his crossed legs, stood up and walked to the stage, took the microphone from Harvey Cotton, exchanged places with him, and faced the thousands of guests present.

"To be honest, I don't actually know what to say."

A burst of laughter sounded from the audience.

Wu Yuan deliberately made a serious expression: "Don't laugh, I'm really not joking."

"For a director, when the filming of the film is completed, everything is over. At least the director's work is completed."

"As for whether this movie will ultimately be loved by the audience, this decision does not lie in the hands of the director, but in the hands of you."

"All I can do is make this movie with all my heart and try to make it the best it can be."

"And there is only one thing I can say to you."

"'Pirates of the Caribbean' is definitely a movie that is worth the price of admission and will leave you with endless aftertaste after watching it!"

Wu Yuan finished his speech neatly and sat back in his seat.

The constant whispers and sparse movements in the screening room gradually disappeared as the lights dimmed, and everything became peaceful.

The sound of "sizzling" film starting to spin sounded, and the picture lit up on the big screen.

There is no opening animation that is common in Disney animated films.

The movie subtitles for "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" are wrapped in flames and full of pirate style.

The title of the film briefly appeared for a few seconds and then disappeared, and a sea full of fog appeared in front of all the viewers.

"Wow——"

A gorgeous warship, facing the wind and waves, rushed straight towards the audience.

"We are pirates~ We do all kinds of evil~ We burn, kill and loot~" In the background, the sweet voice of the little girl was singing a chilling song.

The legendary journey of "Pirates of the Caribbean" officially begins at this moment.

A pirate ship called the Black Pearl is about to set sail and smash all obstacles in its way!
