This director is very reliable

Chapter 458 Is this the end? (44)

I have a question, why can't China make a movie like "Godzilla"?

In fact, this question is easy to answer: Godzilla originated from Japanese Tokusho, and the rise of Japan’s Tokusei and Japanese cartoons has an opportunity, that is, the military rule and culture of the US military after the end of World War II. Invasion!

After the war, the Japanese law strictly prohibited the shooting of war films with realistic themes, but the needs of the masses for this type of film existed objectively, so Japanese film and television workers began to set the role of the enemy in the film as an unrealistic existence—such as Aliens and monsters.

Therefore, Ultraman and Godzilla came into being!

Godzilla is even more special. If you look at the story of Godzilla, there are always two elements running through it, that is, "nuclear radiation" and "disasters caused by human beings, but human beings cannot resist them". The formation of this form of thinking does not require It is clearly stated that it originated from the atomic bomb attack that Japan suffered.

No nuclear threat, we're out of our minds, need to shoot Godzilla?

Moreover, Japan has Shintoism and believes in animism, so the role of Godzilla gradually tends to be a "spiritual creature with powerful power" rather than a "huge evil and chaotic monster", such as the 2016 "New Godzilla" "La", Godzilla has communicated with humans more than once, and has the obvious ability to distinguish between good and evil!

Godzilla quickly became the star of the monster genre in Japan. After Sony acquired Columbia, it developed "Godzilla"...

However, in the US version of "Godzilla", Godzilla is interpreted as a huge monster that only knows how to destroy, which completely deviates from the connotation of the role of Godzilla, and also loses room for further exploration.

Therefore, Warner will restart!

By the way, this version of "Godzilla" was first released in North America, and the first weekend box office was 9320 million U.S. dollars. Globally, it hit nearly 2 million U.S. dollars at the opening box office. The top-grossing blockbuster.

It has been nearly a month since it was released in China!

However, everyone is more concerned about how much money Changlin Film and Television invested.

Shi Shi thought for a while and replied: "I don't know the exact amount, it seems to be 4000 million US dollars..."

"Then will there be investment in the sequel?"

"It's hard to say, there seems to be something wrong with the assets of Legendary Pictures... You should ask him about this, he has his own plan!"

"Will that $4000 million be profitable?"

"Of course... Our share of the account is directly given to us by the distributor. We will cooperate with Warner on many plays, and they will not default on our share of the account!"

"I heard that the North American distribution rights of "League of the Losers" were sold to Weinstein Films?"

"...I don't know about this. Generally speaking, he won't tell me about business matters unless I take the initiative to ask."

……

Zhao Shan was surprised that the North American distribution of "League of the Lost Treasure" was handed over to Weinstein Films?
"Why did the publishing rights of "League of the Lost Treasures" go to Harvey?"

Shen Changlin took it for granted: "...he is capable!"

"He is too greedy... Besides, don't you know that his private life is not clean?"

"...greedy? How do you say it? We signed a bill-sharing contract. After watching the movie, he gave a guarantee of release in 1500 theaters..."

"Aren't you afraid he's lying?"

"A movie... the right to adapt it is sold to him, it's impossible!"

"Adaptation rights? How much did you sell for?"

"200 million dollars..." Shen Changlin added: "He paid 350 million dollars first, of which 200 million is the adaptation fee, and 150 million is the basic payment..."

Zhao Shan still didn't understand: "Didn't you say he is a pervert?"

"It's none of my business, what does he have to do with me if he's so lecherous? He doesn't play by the rules in North America. Whoever he likes unspoken rules, he unspoken rules... What's wrong? Is your idol on the list?"

Shen Changlin thinks about it, Harvey Weinstein has a rotten body, he likes to show off his power, that is, playing with women...

But this thing has nothing to do with him!
Harvey is a whore, but even if he is all over Hollywood, he cares about Shen Changlin's business?

Don't Meryl Streep, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Winslet, Jennifer Lawrence know about his inferiority?
Still choose to be bound with him!
Shen Changlin, a Chinese, has enough profits, why not?
In the original time and space, Harvey’s downfall was actually foreshadowed—some of Weinstein’s usual public relations tactics of buying judges and manipulating the media became no longer effective with the strength of a series of new platforms such as Netflix and Amazon.

On the other hand, Weinstein was known for digging out high-quality low-cost independent films in the past, but his relatively fixed routine and conservative vision also made Weinstein gradually lose those talented young directors who were unwilling to follow the crowd-this is precisely It's what Netflix and Amazon want to fight over.

Streaming media needs to rise, and the big studios can't handle it. It is relatively casual to set up a Weinstein film industry.

Sexy news can’t defeat a real big shot—he is just the boss of a medium-sized company, and he can have so many unspoken rules. What about the ones above him?What about the really big names in America?For example, Epstein's circle of friends...

Zhao Shan shook her head: "That's not true...I'm already past the age of star chasing!"

"This is the end..." Shen Changlin changed the subject: "Have you contacted the crew of "Deadpool"?"

"They're interested...may come over and talk!"

"Okay, then you are in charge of this project... I will give you 3000 million US dollars of authority!"

"...No way, I heard that the cost of "Deadpool" is only more than [-] million US dollars...It belongs to the medium cost..."

"That's half of it... By the way, Naza can play the heroine... Forget it, Naza is too young, let her play a role..."

"Okay...I'll take care of it."

Shen Changlin looked at the time, it was already half past ten in the evening...

"Sister, are you still leaving? Do you want to sleep in?"

"...Bah, the devil wants to accompany you!"

Zhao Shan spat, turned and left the room, and ran into Na Zha who was coming to work...

Stewardess uniform and stockings...

Nodding tacitly.

……

Jackie Chan's car in the film is a Mitsubishi GTO...

The red body, with smooth and steady lines, belongs to the guy who makes men's adrenaline rush just by looking at it.

Originally wanted to replace it with a classic Mercedes-Benz...

But Jackie Chan's movie must drive a Mitsubishi.

Moreover, the classic Mitsubishi GTO has appeared in Jackie Chan movies many times, which can be regarded as nostalgic!

Of course, in the movie, the car was a gift from Jackie Chan's deceased wife, so, he kept driving...

Then, it was smashed!

The reason is because Mr. Han, played by Jackie Chan, wanted to help Naza redeem himself, and took out [-] dollars to find her boss...

Then I was taught a lesson and my money was taken away...

The gangster might find it unsatisfactory, and pull out the sodium tongue - the price of the dumb will double!
Mr. Han went to see her in the hospital. Naza was lying on the hospital bed and lost her breath. Her... friends told many stories about Jackie Chan, which can be regarded as supplementing Naza's background...

Played by Madeleine Carroll, in just one scene, Shen Changlin specially found Madeleine Carroll, also to give Jackie Chan a surprise, Madeleine Carroll is the little girl in "The Agent Next Door"...

It's not over...

It was already three o'clock in the morning when he came out of the hospital. Jackie Chan didn't go home, but went to the hotel to deal with it all night. When he got home, the car was smashed and the dog died...

The next thing is to explode!

Naza is a little confused... I... I'm done now?

Didn't you say ten days?

I haven't arrived in a week, so the filming is over?
　Finally caught up!
