Chapter 1148 Li Press is still very pursuing

The interstellar and the deep sea are difficult for most ordinary people to reach. As long as the quality of film and television works in these two directions is reasonable, it is easier to be recognized by the market if the overall number of works is relatively scarce and they are not filmed badly.

After all, unknown and exploration are psychological drivers rooted in human genes.

Of course, Lehmann could not tell Kevin that it was not important that Namo was an outdated and surprising character in the 1950s. It was just a suitable means that can involve the deep sea, can be created on this basis, and the theme elements can be gathered together, and the source can be found. It is an appropriate means that Marvel copyright library can develop.

When I was just filmed in my previous life, who would have thought that the return on investment of a DC Aquaman would be so high, not only bringing the topic of related characters, but also taking a quick glance. It was just a terrifying Trench Clan clip that was discussed by the audience for a long time, and then Warner saw the opportunity and took the initiative to follow the trend.

You see, isn’t the solid audience base just accumulated like this? Warner is too superstitious about adapting popular projects. The entire DC layout is also first selected from the top traffic characters, and then from the next-class traffic characters. After all these are selected, you can pay attention to the next level, instead of having good inspiration, good ideas, good stories, and good scripts first, then choosing the role that is suitable for adaptation.

However, the budget trend of Hollywood's entire blockbuster films in the new millennium is already like this, with a cost investment of at least 100 million to 200 million. Everyone is afraid that there is no final topic and even public opinion cannot be hyped up. So the first thing they consider is not how much results can the screening achieve, but to fill up the promotional topics and think about increasing the traffic of movie fans on the first weekend.

In the simple concept of the market, a high-level A-level masterpiece, which is less than 50 million in the first week of North America, is basically hell. And the higher the popularity in the first week, the lower the possibility of failure. You can also understand that in today's increasingly fierce competition, it is unreasonable for producers to wait for the reputation to ferment, because even their opponents won't give you time.

Just look at the devilish schedule of the film market. For blockbusters, the golden schedule will be at most two weeks of screening windows to harvest the box office, and usually you will face diversion in more than a week.

It is said that the miracle of the ship is because the screening period spans half a year, and countless fans have become repeat customers, including two, three, five, and six. Times have changed. Is "Deathly Hallows: Two" not good? It's good, but the audience still has to consider "Transformers: The Black Moon Arrives"; and other interesting works. With more choices, the chance of repeated viewing is greatly reduced.

Of course, this is not a bad thing for the audience, and it is not so unfriendly to studios. After all, the film market in 1997 is no match for now. There are more screens, more theaters, and more regular screening specifications. The ticket prices at all levels are rising. From the perspective of the overall environment, the market can accommodate competition, and even if it is more intense, it is profitable. Otherwise, Wall Street's hot money would not be so willing to lead to Hollywood.

In terms of investment returns, making movies is no lower than private equity funds speculating on the stock market, provided that they succeed.

I'm sorry for Warner's slightly wise move to put a wise move on to Warner's slightly wise move.

Is it always beneficial to be popular if Namo is hot enough?

"Seeing this character, I had some shooting ideas..." Lehman looked at Kevin. He had subconsciously taken out his small notebook. "Tracing its past to find "Raiders of the Lost Ark"-style exploration clue design like Trident, plus the battle for the throne and the strange deep-sea races, the tone that the kingly way of the kingdom like growth and love, at least ensures that the story structure is not boring, it will have a relatively wide acceptance, and it is consistent with the movie viewing type of our core audience. As long as you find a suitable director to control the narrative rhythm, the chance of gaining market recognition is quite high."

"Treasure hunting, this idea is good."

The series of movies like "Raiders of the Lost Ark" that preceded the treasure hunting genre has a high influence. It is clear that movies like "National Treasure" and "Da Vinci Code" with treasure hunting tone are all selling well, which makes Kevin feel that Namo's single-player works are a lot of fun.

And as Lehmann explained the main storyline of DC Aquaman a little more detailed, Kevin finally felt relieved.

To promote growth, ocean perception, there are girls, adventures, struggles, and justice to eliminate wars, the plot portrayed in this way is too Marvel, and even the dramatic sense is much stronger than "Iron Man 2". At least the contradictions and conflict settings and development of "Iron Man 2" are not as glorious and creative as Namo.

In other words, Namo no longer has the popularity of Iron Man, at least the story is based on this, with a relatively mature development idea, and if the appearance of "Invincible Hulk 2" is laid out first, it will not lose money.

Did it.

The project framework was first decided, and Kevin had no extra worries after he was determined. He was still afraid that the MCU would suddenly collapse as he spoke, which would lead to the loss of favorable feelings of the audience in the rising period.

"Why...what is the director candidate for "Invincible Hulk 2"? Li Zhao is not trying on another project recently, so it must be a hit."

"I'll call first."

People shoot well, but it is easy to get rifts when they replace people for no reason. If there is no problem with Hollywood series, they usually don’t change directors, which is too hurting the hearts of talents. Moreover, even if they don’t have time to shoot, they will still serve as producers. Just like Lin Yibin’s previous life filming the “Fast and Furious” series, Universal respects his opinions very much. It was not until he clearly stated that he would not shoot that Director Wen took over.

After dialing the phone and greetings for a few words, Lehmann threw the problem of this choice to him, "...... The company is preparing to sequel with the Global Hulk in the second half of the year. How is your situation?"

"Okay, I can't get rid of myself, right?"

"It's okay, you're doing your business."

“OK.”

Hang up the phone, Lehman shrugged.

Kevin smiled and said, "It seems that "Pi's Fantasy Drift" is more attractive than "Invincible Hulk", especially for a director like him who pursues film reputation."

"Just do what you like more. After knowing each other for a long time, you will know that he is like this." Lehman continued: "Forget it, I won't talk about this anymore. Lee Kan is busy casting in Mumbai. Please check the director's affairs."

Having said that, the international director Li went to India to cast a role, and the momentum was quite huge. He heard what he said on the phone - this team took the team to screen more than a thousand local people of appropriate age for more than half a month, but still hasn't taken a fancy to any of them. The issue of candidates for the group is still far away.

Just grind it slowly, Lehman doesn't urge him at all, even though he's spending his money...
