World-class directors in the entertainment industry
Chapter five hundred and forty-eight Wen Ziren
"BOSS, the copyright of [Latent] has been obtained. It currently belongs to our Blackwater Dragon Banner company. I heard that CAA and Warner have contributed to it."
Wen Ziren heard Qin Dong's question and quickly answered respectfully.
Although he is very good in the field of horror films, there is still a gap compared to Qin Donglai.
The reason for respect is not only respect for Qin Dong's director status, but also respect for this compatriot who pulled him out of the fire so that he would never have to be threatened by some disgusting dead fat man again.
"That's good. As for who contributed, I know it well. Now that you've finished filming [Fast and Furious 7], what are you going to do next?"
Qin Dong nodded. Both CAA and Warner followed him and took advantage of him. It was natural for them to contribute a little. If they didn't, Qin Dong would have to consider his backup plan.
In 2012, James Wan was coerced by Harvey and had to endure the humiliation. In the end, the "Latent" script was still acquired by the Weinstein Company.
But when Qin Dong and Harvey had a conflict, when Qin Dong saw James Wan's name and recalled this person, it was destined that James Wan, a Chinese director, would not be able to escape from Qin Dong's grasp.
Now that Qin Dong has recalled the master director of such a profitable horror film, he will not let others take the lead.
So a few months ago, James Wan officially joined Blackwater Longqi, becoming the film and television company's first contracted director.
This time Qin Dong did not let Martin's CAA company sign a contract, but gave CAA a superior status to other agencies in the industry. From now on, James Wan's films will give priority to CAA artists.
Not only that, but Qin Dong also revealed that the copyright was "lurking" in the Weinstein Company and he would definitely get it back.
The reason why James Wan has signed a contract with the company for several months and only met Qin Dong for the first time now is because the Chinese director Lin Yibin had something to do and was unable to film "Fast and Furious 7". In the end, his compatriot James Wan was recommended to take over.
.
Of course James Wan would not refuse such a good thing. This movie had just been filmed, so Qin Dong had just met James Wan for the first time at this moment.
"BOSS, I recently read a novel. It was a novel written by Andrea Perron. It is adapted from a real-life story. I think this novel is suitable for being adapted into a horror movie. And I have seen the popular superhero movies. Watch it.
When it comes to the superhero movie universe promoted by Marvel, I think horror movies may also have a horror universe. Just like Marvel's superheroes interact, the big bosses in horror movies can also interact...
"
When he talked about his areas of expertise, Wen Ziren looked excited and started to introduce them as if no one else was around.
Obviously the location is inappropriate. This is a banquet hall, a celebration banquet, and a place for people who come here to communicate with each other.
But looking at Wen Ziren's expression, Qin Dong did not interrupt him. Instead, he patiently looked like he was listening carefully.
.......
Paris Hilton looked at Ziren Wen carefully. Why does this man, who is shorter than a woman, seem to be so valued by Qin...
A smart woman calculates whether there are any opportunities.
Jennifer Lawrence, who was on the other side of Qin Dong, looked at Wen Ziren with bright eyes.
Superhero universe, horror film universe.
From the few words spoken by James Wan, Jennifer immediately understood the true power of James Wan, who was not as tall as her.
This man actually has such an opinion, and Jennifer trusts Qin Dong very much. Every move of Qin Dong has made him step by step from a Chinese director to a global super director in the past three years.
Jennifer believed in Qin Dong's vision, and after hearing Wen Ziren's narration, Jennifer confirmed that the horror film director in front of her was a talented director.
"Perhaps it would be beneficial to occasionally star in a horror movie and be the heroine. The premise is that the horror movie must be popular."
The woman began to murmur in her heart.
Normally, commercial movie actresses don't like low-budget movies like horror movies.
But if it is a horror movie that is destined to be popular, that is another matter. If this horror movie can be made into a horror movie universe, that will be even different.
"This person has a really big heart and wild ideas. It seems he has to report to the company. Well, my unknown artists will have to fight to star in this person's horror movie."
Martha, the CAA agent on the side, also had eyes shining, looking thoughtful.
Marvel has launched a superhero universe not now, but has been publicizing it for a long time. There is also a so-called ten-year phase plan. Not to mention Hollywood, many people in the world know about it, and even ordinary people know about it.
But I know that so far, Martha has only heard that Warner wants to create a DC superhero universe compared to Marvel, and no third person has this idea.
The ordinary-looking man in front of him actually had such ambition.
Horror movie universe.
Very good, very powerful idea.
...
"Horror movie universe, yes, a very good idea. Since you have thought of this, then go for it. Whatever copyright you are interested in, tell Caesar directly. Blackwater Dragon Flag Company will fully support you behind the scenes. All the money will not be spent.
You need to worry, horror movies are a low-cost genre, even if you spend hundreds of millions of dollars to create a horror movie universe, there is no problem, just go ahead and do it boldly."
After Wen Ziren finished speaking, seeing the other person staring at him eagerly, Qin Dong knew that this person still didn't have the confidence.
Or maybe there is self-confidence, but unfortunately it is not enough. This person has been tortured enough by Hollywood and people like Harvey. Being in that kind of environment for a long time will make people's character unnaturally unconfident.
After understanding this, Qin Dong reached out and pressed on Wen Ziren's shoulder again.
The expression is very serious, the tone is strong and gives the other party confidence, and he firmly supports the other party's ideas.
What's more, the novelist Andrea Perron mentioned by James Wan was the one who adapted this novel in his previous life and made a series in the horror movie universe called "The Conjuring". This horror film will be released during the summer vacation.
, with a box office of US$41.53 million with US$20 million.
It may seem like the box office is not profitable, but it is not the case. The biggest market for horror films is offline discs, where the majority of profits are made. What’s more, the film is released during the summer vacation, which is the time for super commercial blockbusters.
Just look at the sequels of subsequent movies and you will know that because of the circulation of offline discs, a lot of money was made. The two sequels of "Insidious 2" and "The Conjuring 2" were released in the first three days of the weekend.
Both horror films have grossed more than $40 million.
The three-day box office of the first weekend was more than 40 million US dollars, which broke the North American first-week box office performance of a horror film in history.
In just three days of release, these two movies made back their costs and made a profit. This shows that it is really easy for horror movies to make money because the costs are so low.
"Thank you, thank you, BOSS. I am so lucky to have a BOSS like you and to meet my compatriots. I am proud to be of Chinese descent, and I am proud to have the blood of Yan and Huang..."
Wen Ziren's eyes turned red again, and he thanked him again with a choked tone.
No one knows how miserable he has been in these past few years.
Maybe life is not about not having enough to eat, but sometimes the mental torture far exceeds the physical torture.
I recall being slapped randomly in the face by a fat man in a certain hotel room.
I recall being locked in a room, the phone line in the room was unplugged, and my cell phone was taken away.
The room was on dozens of floors. I didn't dare to jump out of the window or smash the door. The hotel service staff came, but after asking a few words through the door, they finally got nothing. No one dared to open the door.
When James Wan thinks about those days, which are like years, he can't help but want to shed tears.
"Okay, there are a lot of people here, don't let outsiders think that I did something to you..."
Qin Dong looked at Wen Ziren who was really about to cry. Although he understood the other party, he had to interrupt at this moment.
It would be really ugly if I really shed tears in this kind of situation.
What's more, it's not good for James Wan's future.
Although this person is of Chinese descent, it is a pity that he does not speak Chinese and was born abroad. His future can only be in Hollywood. In such an exclusive place, you cannot be too weak, otherwise you will be bullied and eaten at will.
"Yes, yes..."
Wen Ziren quickly wiped his eyes.
It can be seen that he suffered a lot of mental damage.
It seems that the director has a good reputation, but it's a pity that no one makes the decision for him.
Just like Lin Yibin, even though this person brought the "Fast and Furious" movie series back to life, his director's fee was very low. This is Hollywood that is nakedly cannibalistic and xenophobic.
"From now on, I allow you to use my name. If someone dares to bully you again, or says discriminatory words, tell them, I will sue them and bankrupt them. Remember, in Hollywood and in the global entertainment industry,
There is no one or company that I can be afraid of...but you are not allowed to use my name to bully others."
Qin Dong patted the little man on the shoulder again and warned him.
This is also Qin Dong's innermost thoughts. Looking at the global entertainment industry, no one or company dares to scare him.
In this land where money is valued, Qin Dong is sure to win over a group of people and put himself in an invincible position.
Unless the Black Palace takes action, Qin Dong will have to retreat, but he can still prosper when he returns to his hometown.
Besides, with artificial intelligence in hand, Qin Dong has plenty of means to take revenge.
"Giant Panda" has any confidential information that is online all over the world. Unless it is written by hand, or the computer is not connected to the Internet at one time, even if it is connected to the Internet once, even if it is only for a few minutes, there is absolutely no way to escape the artificial intelligence "Giant Panda"
Palm.
With this kind of money, no one in North American society, especially those in the upper class, is clean.
If Qin Dong had no choice but to return to China, Qin Dong would definitely retaliate violently.
"Thank you, BOSS. I will definitely not use your name to do immoral things. I have experienced these things and I understand them, so I will never do them."
Wen Ziren waved his hands quickly.
As the saying goes, don’t try to persuade others to be kind if you don’t experience others’ suffering.
Wen Ziren, who has been discriminated against and bullied along the way, understands the bitterness of this status and the mental torture. He has experienced it, so he will not turn around on his own...
The plot of a boy who slays a dragon and finally becomes an evil dragon is not suitable for him.
"Okay, then you can meet people here everywhere, don't be shy, you now have someone to support you..."
Qin Dong nodded, and before leaving, he patted the little man on the shoulder one last time and gestured around.
This kind of occasion is meant to give people in the circle an opportunity to communicate with each other.
