Chapter 840 Four Doors Open Together, Two-pronged Approach

Soon, Secret Capital acquired 50.00% of the shares of Millennium, thus becoming the new owner of Millennium.

Under the bombardment of Fox's impact on the top six in Hollywood, Xu Yuan's amazing wealth is likely to start shooting multiple movies at the same time and other heavyweight news.

Millennium is only a mid-sized company, and its changes have not been noticed by many people.

Every year, several of these companies declare bankruptcy, and then several of these upstarts emerge.

This is Hollywood.

It's just that no one noticed that the CEO of Millennium has not been replaced, and he also secretly met with Hollywood star Gerard Butler before the new owner moved in.

Gerard Butler is best known for his role as King of Sparta, Leonidas in 300.

This made him well-known to fans all over the world.

But after that, his acting career has not been smooth, and he has never been recognized by awards in Hollywood.

In addition, Leonidas is too classic, and he himself wants to transform, so he starred in some comedy movies, but the effect is still not very good, and the box office and word-of-mouth are difficult to satisfy the public.

Finally, he played the second male lead, the villain Seth, in "Gods of War: Eyes of Power".

But it is a pity that this mythical blockbuster with an investment of 1.4 million yuan finally hit the box office, and the total box office of Beimi was only 3000 million.The loss exceeded [-] million yuan, which almost killed the producer.

Gerard Butler also lost his last chance because of this.

He was dumped by Hollywood.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that "The Eye of Power" had already been filmed, Xu Yuan would not have given Zemeckis four scripts, but five!

It's a pity to miss such a great movie.

Of course, Trevor found Butler, not to mock him.

But to give him one last chance.

Let him act in a movie.

Trevor: "Butler, our new owner, named you to play the leading role in a new movie."

Butler: "There are not many people who dare to ask me to film now. Can I know who it is?"

Trevor: "Sorry, I can't tell you who he is, but he's confident enough in his vision because he's never failed."

Butler was taken aback.

Damn, the one who bought Millennium was...Xu Yuan?
Don't ask him why he knows.

There is only one person who has never failed in Hollywood.

The two parties who were already in difficulties hit it off.

After securing the director Anthony Fuqua, Millennium quickly set up the project and started shooting as soon as it said it would start.

The movie they shot, which cost 7000 million to produce, starred Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, and Morgan Freeman.In Trevor's words, it's an "Avengers" movie.

Because these actors have more or less been poisoned by Fox Films.

Among them, Aaron Eckhart even starred in the Battle of Los Angeles, and has since become a box office poison.

And the director of the Battle of Los Angeles, Jonathan, has now been invited by Fox to start filming their fifth film this year, the second big production, and the second film "Shocking Crisis" that belongs to Xu Yuan's script!
This movie has another name called "The Fall of the White Palace".

Coincidentally, Millennium made this movie called "The Fall of Olympus". Of course, it also has a name that is "The Fall of the White Palace"!
From the name, you can also figure out some flavors.

The scripts of these two films are very similar, and the main elements are exactly the same.

The only difference may be the lineup.

By the way, there is another difference.That is the vigorous filming of Fox Films' "The Fall of the White Palace", and the production cost exceeded [-] million yuan.

The production cost of "The Fall of Olympus" in the millennium was only 7000 million, and it started in a low-key manner.

Before "The Fall of Olympus" has not been renamed, no one can see that these two movies are frankly about the same story.

Conspiracy and conspiracy, fighting openly and secretly.

The means must be complete.

Millennium and "The Fall of Olympus" are Xu Yuan's conspiracy.

And Yangmou...

……

It's been a few days since Disney spoke up.

Soon, Disney also proved with facts that their cooperation with Xu Yuan had already been put on the agenda.

They announced Xu Yuan's latest animated image, and announced that they and Xu Yuan's animated film has officially started shooting.Light and dark, two-pronged approach.

It was an ugly doll with square glasses and a square head.

It's an old man who doesn't seem to be very popular with children.

In this regard, Fox Films issued a wild ridicule.

They released a video.

In the video, Zemeckis took the character image of "Mars Needs Mom" ​​and this square-headed character to ask many children: "Children, which one do you like?"

Without exception, everyone chose the characters in "Mars Needs Mom".

Some children even cried in fright at the weird square head.

Zemeckis: "There will be no good works if you rush to work. Do children really like to watch such a character? Xu, I will win this round!"

It is rare that Zemeckis, who has become a street rat, has not been sprayed by everyone.

Because what he said made sense.

Judging by his appearance alone, old man Fang really can't do it.

This is no longer aesthetics, is this ugly?
However, Xu Yuan responded: "First, no matter what the ending is, you have never won, because both characters were designed by me."

Slap on the face.

"Second, you still think that cartoons are made for children, which shows how ignorant your thinking is. Next, I will tell you the most supreme truth in the cartoon industry, and I will reward you for being by my side. A year's reward for the dog."

"That is, truly top-notch cartoons, not only for children, adults can watch them, and they like to watch them! Do you understand?"

Seeing Xu Yuan's speech, Roy and other Disney executives fell into deep thought.

They had discovered something when they got the script of Xu Yuan's latest animation and various character designs. Now, Xu Yuan directly summed it up, and they were even more shocked.

Disney, it seems, has found a broad road.

Cartoons and fairy tales, only to be filmed for adults to achieve real success?

interesting.

Soon, Disney's animated film was also known to everyone.

"Flying House" has an unremarkable name, but that old man Fang has left a deep impression on everyone.

However, judging from the investment, everyone is still not very optimistic about the cartoon script that Xu Yuan produced in a hurry.

Because the production cost of "Mars Needs Mom" ​​is as high as [-] million.

And the production cost of "Up" is said to have reached a terrifying [-] million!
The actual cost of both is likely to be more.

That means they both need a hell of a box office hit to turn a profit.

The outside world predicts that this will be a lose-lose battle.

But Fox can afford to lose because they still have three solid wins.Four big productions, four doors open together.So in this movie, if they don't lose, they win, and if they lose, it may not be considered a win.

Disney can also afford to lose. They have a big family and a big business. "Up" is just one of their many productions this year.And in the past two years, their profits have been very good. For such a blockbuster, it is not unbearable to lose two or three films.

But Xu Yuan couldn't afford to lose.

Although he has deep pockets, he's out for revenge and win or lose.
