Chapter 416

"[-] million dollars worldwide..."

"Brilliant!"

Wang Tian gave a thumbs up and said, "The salary of 2000 million yuan is stable!"

Ding Cheng waved his hand. Although Venom is not as good as Neptune, it is still good. The investment is less than [-] million, which makes Columbia and Penguin laugh from ear to ear.

This is the second time to prove his box office appeal, especially in Southeast Asia, where the domestic contribution is a full third, and South Korea is also quite a lot. In addition to island countries and corners, they account for at least half of the world.

"Now you are definitely the hottest hot potato in Hollywood!"

Wang Tian admired: "Not to mention anything else, just Southeast Asian ticket warehouses can easily make money back and make money. Basically, it is a good business that can make money without losing money."

"Now that the economy is so bad, don't even think about getting the audience to pay less than [-] million. What kind of bullshit big director and big star, if you don't make it, you will go to the street."

"Look at Li An..."

Ding Cheng waved his hand. As expected, Gemini Man still met with failure. Not only was it poor at the box office, it also had a bad reputation. Director Li was really in danger this time.

Three consecutive big investment hit the street,
Even Spielberg can't handle it!

There is no way, I have said everything that should be said at the beginning, and no one can stop me if I insist on going my own way.

Wang Tian regretted: "There are too few superhero books, otherwise, wouldn't it mean that if you go all the way, you will become a super god?"

"Do you think that Marvel will temporarily replace people? Anyway, Avengers [-] will be the finale. Iron Man Captain America or something..."

"How is it possible?" Yaozai beside him laughed and said, "Captain America can't act even if he is killed!"

Ding Cheng couldn't help laughing and cursing, "Are you stupid?"

Everyone laughed, even if Marvel invites a role that has already gained popularity, I will not play it!

It's my duty to do something thankless, if the audience doesn't like it...

It's better to directly introduce a new hero, such as Aquaman. With Warner's urgency, even if the second film is made, Wen Ziren must be his partner. The proven case is the safest.

If a movie is very popular, a sequel will be produced under normal circumstances, and if the sequel is very popular, then sequels of sequels will continue to be produced, become a series, and even develop a movie universe.

The reason why Six Strong is strong is because it has more or less blockbuster movie series, such as Paramount's Mission: Impossible series, Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean, Universal's Fast and Furious...

However, because of the strong rise of Marvel's heroic universe, even the six majors have switched to the camp, and multiple series of movies share the same world view.

To form a universe requires at least three or more film series, and requires elements such as substantial interaction between the series.

In most cases, the series only need to pay attention to the relationship between the previous work and the sequel, while the universe needs to pay attention to the linkage and setting between multiple series, so the difficulty is far greater than that of a movie series.

To put it bluntly, it is an upgraded and enhanced version of the movie series.

The reason why the six giants all hope to create their own movie universe is because once the universe is established, it will be a continuous money printing machine.

Although the series of films in the universe share a world view, they are highly independent of each other. As long as there is no conflict between the film's setting and the world view, the scope of play can be quite free.

More importantly, once a certain work fails, it will have a negative impact on the sequel brand, but series in the universe do not have this problem. With the same world view, even if A fails, B will never be affected. This kind of inclusivity is the most coveted goal of all investors.

As long as the brand influence is established, like a cow, all the series under the universe can enjoy the dividends brought by the brand in the future, regardless of the innate box office chassis or publicity popularity, it is cool.

It can even cover various peripherals, games, animations, etc. Looking at the whole world, Guan Gong's battle with Qin Qiong is also a timeless gimmick. In the universe, the audience can see various highly popular characters teaming up to fight against the enemy, and it can also satisfy Hope to compete with each other.

Of course, only the top giants can think about this kind of game. Just as every movie series has a theme or core, a complete movie universe needs a main plot that can connect its various series.

Such a main line of the story cannot be created casually. Even with the support of the original work, it requires the director and screenwriter to have very deep skills in order to combine the material with the series of movies and make appropriate adaptations.

It needs to be ambitious in the early stage, and the planning scale is much larger, because it contains multiple different series, and the order, linkage, and assembly of the launches of each other need to be precise step by step, and even the specific characters need to appear in which series. must be taken into account.

Reasonable coordination and distribution must also be made to match the main story, which will undoubtedly increase the difficulty several times. The most important thing is continuity and sustainable development. Any settings, plots, and characters that will block the development path are usually blocked. Not suitable for moving to the cinematic universe.

A strong helm is needed. When filming, most directors tend to pay more attention to the integrity of their own series, and then ignore the most critical continuity of the film universe.

If it is not handled properly, the consequences will be fatal, because it will block the development paths of all universes.

After all, there was only one Jobs,
There is only one Mr. Stan Lee, the father of Marvel!
Starting with Iron Man in 08, it announced the rise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and then the "X-Men" series... the six majors entered the arena one after another, and some of them expanded their popular series of movies to the universe, but the quality is uneven. , some are even stillborn, such as Universal Pictures’ so-called Dark Universe.

Later, I found that it was not easy to handle, so I simply changed the road and spent money directly. After Disney acquired Fox, the copyright of the X-Men was about to return, and there were too many cards in hand.

The Marvel Universe has a total of 20 works, with a total profit of more than 200 billion U.S. dollars. It occupies 10 of the top 4 box office lists in film history. Its global influence is unparalleled and it has become synonymous with American comics.

Poor Star Wars was originally a super-national IP, and its popularity in North America even far exceeded that of MCU, but its global influence was instantly killed as a younger brother.

What is even more tragic is DC. It is not inferior to Marvel in terms of accumulation, but its planning in the construction of the movie universe is messy, and it often makes self-development behaviors, beating Superman and Batman to pieces.

Wen Ziren is also ambitious, wanting to create the first horror universe, starting from the chainsaw, to the conjuring and Annabelle, although the audience is small, but the production cost is low, 6000 to [-] million can play a big one.

It is also Warner's best-run universe series at present. It not only has stable revenue-absorbing ability, but also has very healthy development potential.

Everyone is not to be outdone, and bites the bullet to catch the wind. The series of movies, especially for actors, can be regarded as a golden job. Once they win, they don't have to worry about it for the rest of their lives!
