Chapter 960

Lannik's taking over of "Taken" can be regarded as liberating Lin Xiao.

Since the sequel to "Home Alone" decided to cooperate with Dick Group, Lin Xiao saved a lot of work.

On the other hand, Legendary Pictures has been herding sheep for so long, so it's time to start doing something for this company.

Hearing that Lin Xiao was finally going to let Legendary Pictures produce films on his own, Nami was also very happy.

She is also ambitious. Although Legendary Pictures is a bit small, it does not mean that there is no potential for development. Through the release of several series of films this time, they will be handed over to several Hollywood giants. The company is off to a good start.

But Legendary Pictures has "Taken" and "Home Alone" in addition to these. However, although "Home Alone" is in cooperation with Dick Group, the copyright owner is actually in Huaguo.And it is also the cooperation between the Huaguo team and the North American team.

The preparations for "Taken" have begun, but the current Legendary Pictures obviously cannot support such a film by itself.

Don't think that making a movie is easy. Of course, it is easier to make a small-budget independent movie, but the profitability is quite limited.

There is still a long way to go for Legendary Pictures to break away from the shell company and become an independent film label.

Although I tried to shoot a few low-cost films in an experimental way before, none of them were released in the final release, and they were directly released on DVD.

"Boss, if we want to make our own films, we can only start with low-cost films and gradually accumulate experience. With the current situation of our company, we can't even make a medium-budget film like "Taken" Do it alone." Nami said.

"Don't worry, of course I know that making a movie is not an easy task, and, do you think Legendary Pictures has the ability to break the existing giant structure of Hollywood?" Lin Xiao asked with a smile.

"This is impossible. The structure of the seven giants of Hollywood film and television has been formed. Behind them are the media group holdings. In addition, they almost monopolize the distribution channels around the film-related industry. Therefore, it is almost impossible to break it unless the media group appears. Turmoil, or direct acquisition, or a revolutionary change in the film, otherwise, it is impossible." Nami shook her head.

"Yeah, so, I never thought about it, although Hollywood and even the whole world are beginning to tend to big productions and big investments, especially in North America."

"This is also the reason why Hollywood can remain invincible. Hollywood movies have a very complete industrial system. The profits of movie box office have been reduced to 20%. More profits come from the surrounding industrial chain. But this is unique to Hollywood. system, so they dare to invest hundreds of millions to make a film, because they can recover and make profits through other channels. Although the film is still the core, it only plays a leading role. It has become the current group combat."

"But although Hollywood giants have almost monopolized most of them, it doesn't mean that there is no room for independent films." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"Big productions require big channels, but small costs don't need to be so troublesome, and the profit margins are quite considerable." Nami nodded with a smile.

"And, now, although it is the era of the monopoly of the seven giants, the rise of the Internet has created an additional channel, which makes the monopoly of the seven giants less thorough."

"So, BOSS, I have a plan before, maybe we can produce a batch of distinctive low-cost films first to exercise our production team. At the same time, with our current cooperative relationship with Universal, DSN, and Dick, the distribution aspect There is no need to worry at all," Nami said.

"However, we need a direction and a pioneering work." Nami said looking at Lin Xiao.

"I already have a few ideas here." Lin Xiao pointed to his head and said.

"BOSS itself is a gold medal screenwriter. Your ideas must be extraordinary. It seems that we need to expand the screenwriting team immediately." Nami said with a smile. Although it was a compliment, it was not a compliment, or it was not just a compliment. , because Lin Xiao is indeed a gold medal screenwriter.

The filming of "Taken" has officially started, and the sequel of "Home Alone" has also officially entered the filming stage.

Here at Legendary Films.

"Let's put it this way, this movie is very interesting, it has a sense of fate, and it is easy to use the little predictive ability to escape the disaster, but the hidden rules do not allow this Things exist, and that is the person who should have died, and you still can't escape."

"Encountering an accident, dying in an accident, the horror of it is that the god of death is invisible in it, but it is everywhere, it is always looking after you, you may die if you are not careful, and You have no chance of defeating it because you don't even know what it is?"

"So, the core of the movie is that no one can escape the pressure and despair of knowing that he will die but not knowing when he will die."

That's right, the movie Lin Xiao produced was called "Death Is Coming". It was a low-budget horror movie. It was different from the usual horror movies in that it was creative.

This kind of low-budget horror film is the magic weapon for many independent films to survive, because it may not perform so well in theaters, but DVDs are very marketable. If the theaters perform a little better, then it may explode .

Of course, the scripts that Lin Xiao exchanged from the system were not limited to this one.

Of course, Lin Xiao only provided an outline of ideas, and the specific content will be filled in by the screenwriter team.

In fact, there are not many things that need to be filled in "Death is Coming". The most important thing is to brainstorm collectively and discuss how to "die".

Yes, it is to take out the characters in "Death Comes" and kill them hundreds of times.

Finally decided, how to die!
This is also the interesting part of "Death is Coming". The various ways of death are not supernatural phenomena, but the death of everyone. Although it is bizarre, it is reasonable. In real life, it is also possible. .

There are no restrictions, and there is no framework for the method of death, all relying on imagination.

Some screenwriters gave it, kissed under the billboard, and then was directly crushed to death by the falling billboard.

When I went to the bathroom, I just finished my toilet, and suddenly found that there was no paper, and there was no one outside, so I turned to the other side of the cubicle. After turning over, I fell into the toilet and drowned.

"The Grim Reaper" is not a horror film, the various characters in it will have a strange way, but it looks like an accidental death.

Even according to Lin Xiao's original idea, there is no need to clearly describe the way of death. When the time comes, let the actors brainstorm together during filming. Well, this is also a good publicity stunt.
