Chapter 752

On Earth, Warner Bros. Pictures produced a series of notable productions.

In the early years, there were "Casablanca", "A Streetcar Named Desire", "Blade Runner", "A Clockwork Orange" and "Driving Miss Daisy", which not only won Oscars, but also left many classic images in the hearts of movie fans.

After entering the 21st century, there are also several major series that are familiar to everyone: "Batman" series, "Superman" series, "Matrix" series, "Harry Potter" series, "Lord of the Rings" series, The Bitman series, The Hangover series, and Pan's Labyrinth, The Prestige, Mad Max 4, Gravity, Inception, Zodiac, and Interstellar "Ready Player One" and other individual works; in addition, it includes "Batman v Superman", "Wonder Woman", "Sea King", "League of Justice" and other DC comics.

Are they all famous?

Don't be surprised, these are only the parts that Du Caige has seen.

There was more he hadn't seen.

Even if you are not a film practitioner like Du Caige, but just an ordinary film lover, you should have seen most of these films (although not necessarily for buying a ticket), and at least you have heard of them if you haven’t seen them.

In terms of serials, Warner Bros. Pictures also performed well.

"Smallville", "The Flash", "Gotham", "Arrow", etc., which were changed by DC comics, and the hit "Bankrupt Girls", "The Big Bang Theory", "Gossip Girl", "The Vampire Diaries", "The Original Family", "The Force of Evil" ""Secret Society", "Nikita", "Southern Medical Love", "[-] Sons of the Earth", from popular idol dramas, to workplace dramas, medical dramas, sitcoms, and even hardcore science fiction dramas, all have left some classic screen images .

If a person says he likes to watch American dramas, but says he has not watched any of the above-listed dramas, then he is definitely talking nonsense.

It’s like a person who likes to read comics and says he hasn’t seen Dead Flames; a person who likes sports doesn’t know Robert Baggio, Ronaldo, Messi, Ronaldo, Jordan, Chamberlain, Tiger Woods, Schumacher, etc.; a person who likes A person who reads has never read the four great classics; a person who likes to read online articles has never read "Zhu Xian", "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", "Dou Po", "Perfect" and "Girlfriends".

Another subsidiary of Time Warner, hbo TV network, has more classic TV series, "Game of Thrones", "Prison", "Sex and the City", "The Sopranos", "True Blood", "Atlantic Empire", "Deadwood", "Mental Questionnaire", " Band of Brothers, Pacific War, Westworld, etc.

Either applauded, or a blockbuster, or applauded and a blockbuster, is a frequent visitor to the Emmy Awards.

A large part of them were once rated ace level.

Du Caige intends to bring these classic works over.

Of course, this is not bad taste, but a pious filmmaker's tribute to classic works.

It would be a pity if these classic film and television works could not be seen by the people of Azure Star.

Of course, at the same time, he is also for profit.

Just say the "Harry Potter" series, the seven-part series has brought more than 70 billion global box office revenues to Warner Bros. Pictures on Earth.

Not to mention the box office profits, the sales of peripheral products and the income of the theme park are worth hundreds of millions of dollars in profits every year!

And it is still a long-lasting, long-term income!

Du Caige himself doesn't care about money.

However, you still have to leave something for your children!

Although I decided to carry these classic movies and series over.

But which one to move first and which one to move later is still a problem.

At the same time, it is still unknown what kind of results those DC comics adaptation movies can achieve without the bonus of comic fan feelings.

In the same way, the "Harry Potter" series, "Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" series, if there are no years of novels to cultivate loyal fans, it is estimated that it will be difficult to repeatedly create new highs and become industry benchmarks.

Without a director like Nolan, it is difficult to guarantee whether "The Dark Knight Rises of Batman" can still produce that taste.

Therefore, Du Caige must spend a lot of time and energy to check if it is to be transported.

Li Minjun sat for a while, then got up to say goodbye, said that he was going to play at the beach, and joked, "If I need to put on sunscreen, can I call you for help?"

Du Caige thanked Bumin: "I'm not interested in this area, it's almost as if your sister is looking for me."

"Really?" Li Minjun smiled strangely, "Are you sure, she asked you to help put on sunscreen, will you go?"

Du Caige knew he had made a slip of the tongue, and quickly covered it up: "I mean, if it's a beauty like your sister, it's not too bad. Your sister and I really have nothing to do, so don't think about it."

"I understand, I understand." Li Minjun nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

After seeing off Li Minjun, Du Caige continued to think.

During this period of time, he has actually sorted out the works that Warner Bros. Pictures will produce in the next few years.

Several projects will be announced soon.

But what he wanted to shoot, Du Caige was still hesitating.

If you want to strike while the iron is hot and strive to set a new box office record, filming "Dragon Snake: The Witch" is the best choice.

But for one thing, Du Yuqi's acting skills are immature, and Du Caige doesn't want to ruin her career by rushing for success.

On the other hand, if "Wulin" is allowed to brew for a few more years, settle down for a few more years, and become a classic that will never fade in people's memory, and then release "Witch" at that time, fans will be more willing to pay for their feelings.

Another very important reason is that Du Caige is not satisfied with the current special effects of gun fighting.

The level of special effects in "Wulin" is similar to that in "Tearing Doom".

If you spend a little more time, it is no problem to make the special effects of the "League of Assassins".

Bullet turning and the like, that's not a problem.

But there is still a gap between the special effects that Du Caige wants to present.

So Du Caige would rather wait until the conditions are ripe.

So now, what else is worth shooting for him?

There are many things Du Caige wants to shoot.

But with "Wulin" gems ahead, he still has box office and word-of-mouth pressure.

So choose carefully.

At the same time, Du Caige also hopes to announce the new film plan in a very high-profile manner. He will say at the press conference that his new film will be launched at the end of 2010, and the expected release time is the summer file of 2011 or the Lunar New Year file of 2012. This will paralyze Shen Jinsong to a certain extent.

After all, "Outlaw Leon" is expected to be released in April-May 2011.

It is very unlikely that Shen Jinsong would have thought that he would openly build the plank road, cover Chen Cang secretly, and use other movies to stop him.

Although the trade-offs are not yet clear, Du Caige has narrowed down his options.

In the next few days, he can and must make a decision.

For the rest of the day, Du Caige met again with the top management of Warner Bros. Pictures and had a ten-hour meeting.

Then he took the time to contact Wu Xinger and Yao Qiyun.

Wu Xinger opened her mouth to ask for money, Du Caige transferred her 2 yuan, Wu Xinger said dissatisfiedly, "Are you sending a beggar?"

Du Caige replied coldly: "In my mind, you are not as good as a beggar."

Wu Xing'er was left speechless.

"I didn't expect you to be of any help, and I never pinned my hopes on you," Du Caige told her, "but the ugly thing is that if you didn't make any contribution in the process of bringing down Shen Jinsong, you wouldn't Don't think about what benefits I will give you after he goes to prison."

Wu Xing'er said sullenly: "Got it. I will work hard."

On the other hand, Yao Qiyun reported: "He didn't suspect me, he just thought I was making a fuss, was suspicious, and maybe even wanted to get rid of me—the kind of forever. I asked him for 1000 million yen, and he was very happy. I gave it readily. What is the thought behind this, you understand."

Du Caige said: "Someone will be responsible for your safety issues. You just have to keep thinking Shen Jinsong so that he has no time to pay attention to what I am doing. Then when I sue him, you will be a witness, even if you are done. Task."

"The conditions you promised me must be fulfilled." Yao Qiyun emphasized worriedly.

Du Caige told her calmly: "You have no choice."

Although Yao Qiyun was unwilling, but after being silent for a while, she had to admit that she really had no other choice.

Chapter 753 Matrix

After finishing the call with Yao Qiyun, Du Caige hesitated for a while, and found a chat record on his WeChat, which contained a phone number.

It is a local phone number of Stars and Stripes.

There is a note after the number: James.

Du Caige pursed his lips tightly and stared at the number.

……

"Warner Bros. Pictures' press conference, why are you an independent music producer here to join in the fun?" Gaspek rolled his eyes.

Simon blinked his small eyes, "Did you forget that I'm also a columnist for the Washington Evening Post? I'm going to write a column for Hemingway in the new column, can't I. But you, what are you doing here? You, a reporter for the Herald , you should have been transferred from the entertainment section, you are now a serious financial reporter."

"I hear that Warner Bros. is going to have a series of big moves," Gaspek shrugged, "and that means changes in their stock, including that of several entertainment companies. Isn't this financial news? "

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they were meeting each other.

The place where Warner Bros. Pictures held a press conference today was at the famous Oaks Hotel.

Warner Bros. Pictures has rented a large conference hall that can accommodate 400 people. It is conceivable that this press conference will be very lively.

Gaspek and Simon met several familiar reporters along the way, and everyone chatted and laughed, and came to the venue.

At a glance, it was dark and full of people.

Simon was speechless: "There are only 400 people here? You tell me there are only 400 people here?"

"Relax, buddy, this is a small scene. Last year I went to Dahua to attend their government's press conference. That's just one person. There were more than 1600 reporters and photographers at the scene." A person who just imported their reporter chimed in.

Gaspick also looked at Simon with disdain, "It's rare to see. Look at others, who would make such a fuss like you?"

Simon looked left and right, "But there are too many people. I remember that not long ago Fox held a press conference to announce the next few projects. There were only 30 media present, and there were only more than 70 reporters, photographers, and photography assistants in total. people."

"Because Hemingway will attend the press conference today. We are all here for him. What's so interesting about Fox's press conference? Of course not many people will go there." Another reporter who passed by the side interjected familiarly. .

"But, is Hemingway's press conference very good-looking? Because he is handsome? Or, he will dance and sing with beauties at the press conference?" Simon asked three soulful questions.

With an expression of "it's embarrassing, don't tell others that you know me", Gaspek pulled Simon aside, "You came here without knowing anything? What the hell did you do here!"

Simon plausibly said, "I said, my column is going to write a special topic on Hemingway."

"You've already written this," Gaspek reminded him.

Simon rolled his eyes, "But I want to write a more in-depth topic."

"It's up to you," Gaspek said without any hesitation, "We have all received some news. At today's press conference, Hemingway will announce a lot of exciting news, including Warner Bros. Pictures' investment in the next few films. A masterpiece worth over [-] million yuan. And what everyone cares most about is his new film situation."

"God," Simon was really surprised, "Is The Lonely Aster going to make a sequel?"

Gaspek shrugged, "Not necessarily, it is said that it may be a brand new series."

"Another 'digging a big hole'," Simon said the word in a strange Chinese tone, and then said like a cannonball, "but even if we knew he was digging a hole, we were still willing to jump in. Just think about it. How many holes have been dug! A Song of Ice and Fire, Children of the Mist, there are several comics that are not finished. Now that the story of the 'Martial-art' series has just begun, he is going to start a new series? Don't let I saw him, and if I saw him, I would definitely kidnap him and force him to write 3 words of Ice and Fire every day, and he would not be given food until he finished writing. After I finished writing Ice and Fire, I would write Children of the Mist, and then Let him make a movie for me..."

Gaspek laughed. "There are a lot of people who think the same as you, buddy. Good luck."

Under the guidance of the staff, the arriving reporters were seated respectively according to the importance of their respective media, their audience, and the time of their arrival.

Only reporters and some famous entertainment industry practitioners have seats, photographers and camera assistants have no seats.

After the 400 seats are filled, people will come one after another, so they can only stand in the aisle.

Simon roughly estimated that this conference hall can accommodate at least 700 people.

There were 10 times more people than the original Fox press conference.

So, this is the magic of Hemingway, right?

When the time came, Hemingway, several other high-level executives from Warner Bros. Pictures, and a sharp-tongued media spokesperson walked into the venue talking and laughing.

After being seated, the procedure began, and the speaker began to read the manuscript.

The reporters listened intently.

Many of them come for Hemingway, but that doesn't mean they're all about Hemingway, after all, Warner Bros. Pictures is also full of topics.

Moreover, everyone knows that many of Warner Bros. Pictures' upcoming actions are related to Hemingway. This is the news released by insiders.

As the news was announced one by one, the reporters sometimes whispered and sometimes whispered.

Simon whispered: "God, 2 years, 5 movies, 10 billion US dollars. In previous years, I wouldn't be surprised if Warner Bros. Pictures cast 1 films with a cost of more than 5 million US dollars in one year. But Now? Can they afford so much money? I haven’t heard that they have a lot of financing. I heard that most of the money invested by Juzhi Investment is used to repay the loan.”

"Don't make noise, keep listening." Gaspek stared at the spokesman with a gentle smile without blinking.

After a while, Simon beeped softly again, "A total of 20 films will be shot in the next three years? A considerable part of them will be low-cost drama films? That's not bad. If you don't have money, it should be a game without money. "

"Fuck me, 2 new dramas will be filmed within 10 years, and 3 dramas with a single-integration cost of more than 500 million US dollars will be regarded as blockbuster products? I still say the same thing, what the hell is Warner Bros. Pictures has so much money Is it?"

"Invest $15 billion to build a movie world theme park? What's wrong, do you still have spare money to do this at this time?"

"What? Invest 5 million US dollars to create 3 excellent games? If Hemingway thinks the money is too much to spend, why don't I help him spend some."
