Chapter 475 [Create a classic with low cost! 】

With the improvement of spiritual attributes, Liang Kun is becoming more and more good at making long-term plans. As long as he grasps the rhythm and takes it step by step, he will soon become famous in Hollywood.

He knew that he could not "eat it into a fat man in one go" in Hollywood. If "The Lost Lover" was adapted into a movie this year, he would definitely have to find other directors to shoot it. So he wrote the IP first and had the copyright in hand. He didn't nod and said that no one could do anything to film it.

In this way, he has a buffer period and can improve his abilities.

As long as he practices the "movie directing" skills to B level, he should be fine to replicate it with David Finch's original filming method. At that time, he will be nominated for Best Director by the Oscar or Golden Globe Awards, and his popularity will definitely soar. Find other directors to shoot, no matter what the final filming looks like, the only nominations he can get is the best screenwriter.

Liang Kun said he wanted to shoot it himself, but Spielberg was not angry, and it was not surprising that young people had ambitions.

And this is not the type of movie that Spieburg likes. DreamWorks bought the copyright and he would not direct the movie himself. He is just optimistic about the potential of this adaptation into a movie. If it is filmed, it can hit the Oscars and the box office will not be low.

This is true. "The Lost Lover" released in 2014 easily exceeded 100 million in North America, setting the highest box office record in David Finch's career. The film was also ridiculed by the audience as the movie "the most likely result in breaking up of the year" for its sharp discussion on the topic of gender.

Liang Kun talked about the plot of "Escape Room". Except for his youngest daughter Distri and his adopted black daughter Mikaela, everyone said it was very exciting after hearing this.

Distri and Mikaela are only 9 years old and don’t like thrilling stories. In the parallel world, Mikaela is even more thrilling when she grows up. She looks ugly and is clamoring to become an adult movie star, and she is crazy about cheating her father. The heroine of "Transformers" is the same name as her. If "Micaila" made an adult movie, her sales might break the record.

Speech's son Sawyer, a fan of Liang Kun, asked: "Liang, is there any escape room game you mentioned outside? It sounds very interesting."

The real-life escape room game is a puzzle adventure game that requires players to find clues in the secret room, solve various puzzles, and aims to escape from the secret room. The concept proposed by Liang Kun was very trendy in this era, and almost everyone has never heard of this thing.

"Electronic games have ones, but even if they have one, they are not popular. My inspiration comes from the movie "Alien Dimension Killing Formation". I wonder if you have seen it?" Liang Kun explained.

Sasha, 15, rushed to say, "I've seen this, and I think your idea is more interesting than that movie."

Sawyer agreed. "Yes, your imagination is too rich."

Spieburg was also surprised by Liang Kun's imagination. His works were all brain-opening content. This escape room idea might create an emerging game industry.

"The Killing Formation of the Different Dimension" caused a huge sensation after its release in 1997. However, the subsequent "The Killing Formation of the Different Dimension" and "The Killing Formation of the Different Dimension" were of poor quality. It can be said that this series of movies pioneered the culture of escape room culture.

In October 2007, the famous thriller film "Extreme Space" launched by Noto Pictures in Spain is a standard escape room game.

This kind of game was born in the United States but did not develop rapidly. Perhaps Americans prefer outdoor sports, and these games are only loved by niche players. Real-life escape room games failed to find a market in the United States to continue to develop, but were brought back to Japan by the Japanese. Japanese social culture just coincided with this game and became popular.

After 2012, real-life escape room became a popular activity among young people in major mainstream cities in China. According to incomplete statistics in 2019, the total number of escape room practitioners in first-tier cities such as Yanjing, Magic City, and Pengcheng reached 10,000, and annual sales performance reached 10,000 million yuan.

Now, Liang Kun is ahead of everyone. This movie is very popular this year. In the future, as long as someone plays the real escape room game, he may think of him, and he wants to create classics at low cost!

Spieburg liked this idea and smiled and said, "Tomorrow, take your plan and the complete script for me to see. Do you also want to play a role in the film?"

"Yes, and I hope to participate in the casting of this movie and decide on several main actors." Liang Kun explained with a smile: "Because when I was writing the script, the characters had prototypes."

"You are the elite gamer who drives Mercedes-Benz and wears Armani, and the others have prototypes?" Spieburg asked.

Liang Kun nodded and introduced: "The blond man who works on the construction site and lives to the end is an Australian friend of mine. He really worked on the construction site and later became an actor. He is well-known in Australia. The heroine's image is also written according to the image of a friend. She played a supporting role in "Happy Death Day". If they attended the audition, it would be very consistent with the character setting and a good image."

Liang Kun spoke out his thoughts straight to the point. He was confident and there was no need to play with it. "Happy Death Day" has not been released yet, and the box office in North America is higher than "Munich" directed by Spieburg.

His director pay, actor pay, and script price will definitely be fully increased in the next film. He doesn't need to say much about Speechburg will also benefit him, so he didn't mention those things first.

What he wants is the right to choose actors, and it is not too much. Moreover, he is not a random choice. If his acting skills are poor and his image is unreliable, others can object.

Spieburg agreed without much thought. "Okay, then you can attend the audition. If you think someone is more suitable for the script, you can also invite them to audition, but you must control your budget."

"I know this. I only look for cheap and capable actors, and I won't choose any expensive ones." Liang Kun promised with a smile.

Even if he wants to find Hollywood stars to act in this kind of thriller, they won’t come. Like "Happy Death Day", this kind of film cannot greatly improve its status and is only suitable for newcomers to become familiar with each other.

Kate smiled and said, "What you said is wrong. If you also starred in the show, don't you want to increase your pay?"

"Of course I think so, I believe Steven will not treat me badly." Liang Kun said relaxedly.

After DreamWorks was acquired by Paramount, Paramount's people would definitely participate. If you want to significantly increase your pay, Liang Kun needs a big shot to help him say something good. He will mainly thank Spieburg at that time.

Spieburg smiled and said, "I'm glad you trust me, but it's time for you to find an economic person in the United States, who can help you handle affairs in the United States well."

"I'm honest, don't laugh at me. I haven't been here for a long time. I don't know what kind of economic person I should look for, and I don't know who is more reliable in this circle." Liang Kun said with a wry smile.

The spelling of English words between agents and managers is Ag and Mangerment, and the spelling is different.

American managers hold the power of life and death for artists, and nothing can be left to the manager's leadership and reply. Ordinary agents or assistants are not qualified to decide anything about artists. Liang Kun always needs agents, and he does not want to be controlled in the United States.

Kate took over this. "Let Steven recommend one for you."

"That would be better." Liang Kun smiled.

"With the potential you have shown so far, there must be a good agent who wants to cooperate with you. I'll ask." Spipberg likes people like Liang Kun who talk about feelings with others, not just talk about money.

Liang Kun really has no better choice, and he wants to use this method to strengthen his connection with Spieburg.

If he firmly stands with Speechburg, he will sooner or later win both fame and fortune. Although Speechburg has not filmed a series like a super British movie, in parallel worlds, he has collaborated with Universal, Paramount, and Disney, and has produced many blockbusters as producers.

Liang Kun also thought about getting into the most promising Marvel, but even if he participated, he could only be a director. It is impossible to play an important role.

Until "Avengers 4", Marvel launched a large group of superheroes and made many successful superheroes, but no Chinese had ever been the protagonist. The Chinese with the most roles in Marvel movies was Lao Wang, who lives next to Dr. Strange.

Liang Kun returned home in the afternoon. Teresa Palmer, who usually called himself a "female assistant" but could only wash tableware at home, immediately came over. "How are you talking about? Are you sure about the next movie?"

Liang Kun took off his coat and leaned on the sofa, and said lazily: "It's basically decided. I'll go there with the script and plan tomorrow. I will participate in the audition and have the right to recommend actors. Your role is stable. As long as you don't make a fool of yourself when auditioning."

"That's great!" Teresa was overjoyed and finally she was about to play the heroine.

"You take the time to think about the role more. Even if you are basically determined, you still have to go through the formalities during the audition. I will be more respectful if you perform well, otherwise the producer and the deputy director will think that I have unspoken rules for you."

Teresa's face turned slightly red and she whispered: "If you like me, I'm willing, this is not a hidden rule."

"Stop... I just pretend I didn't hear it." Liang Kun swallowed, this was the temptation of being naked.

He was very conflicted when he heard this. He was a bit stupid when he was bulging and squinting. He didn't do anything by himself. But if he did it, it would be too bad.

It is the easiest way to deal with it when he drove Teresa out to find a place to live, but then the other party will be sad. Teresa's living here is also a kind of adjustment for him and is quite pleasing to the eye.

This is a big mission, Liang Kun can't do the job of killing the donkey. Teresa had posted an orange mission that wanted to play the heroine of a high-box movie, and he had already taken it.

He can definitely complete this task. With the success of "Happy Death Day", he will attract the attention of many movie fans when "Escape Room" is released.

The biggest difficulty of this movie is to create a shooting environment, and the main thing to spend money on making props. Liang Kun’s task is quite heavy and there are many action scenes, so he is definitely not as easy to shoot as the previous one.

It's difficult, it's a better exercise for him...
