Qiye looked at Taika Waititi and couldn't help but think so.

This filmmaker from New Zealand just came to Hollywood the year before last.

With no relatives and no reason to bow his head, Taika Waititi can only start from the grassroots of the crew if he wants to make a world in Hollywood.

Fortunately, the other party's work experience in New Zealand at least saved him from starting with chores on the set.

But the other party's journey to Hollywood is still not smooth.

After all, compared with the British gang that has already formed a system, and the Australian gang.

The team energy of the New Zealanders in Hollywood is obviously much weaker.

Fortunately, Peter Jackson, a New Zealand director, took good care of his fellow countrymen.

After meeting Taika Waititi at a party, he thought the young man was good and recommended him to Jiufeng.

It just so happened that the "Invincible Hulk" crew was still short of an assistant director, so Kevin Feige asked him to leave.

However, the other party's stay in the "Invincible Hulk" crew was not very pleasant, and his overly detached personality made him and Leterrier (the director of "Invincible Hulk") have always had conflicts.

But Kevin Feige felt that this weird guy had great potential.

So Feige not only stood by the assistant director, but also gave Taika Waititi considerable power.

When I was watching "The Incredible Hulk" seven nights ago, the comedy segment with a different style that I noticed was the masterpiece of this New Zealand geek.

It is not very clear how the other party entered Hollywood's field of vision in Qiye in his previous life.

But since they met each other in this lifetime, Qiye doesn't intend to let him go.

In addition to acting as an assistant director for himself, Qiye also asked Jiu Feng to sign a long-term contract with the New Zealand director.

Qiye is still very generous to talents. Under Qiye's behest, Taika Waititi has the right to shoot 3 movies at will.

Of course, the cost of these three movies will definitely not be too high, and they will basically be controlled at the level of tens of millions of dollars.

In the previous life, although Marvel has a tradition of selecting young directors, and their vision is also very good.

Basically all Marvel movies, from the perspective of entertainment and commercial movies, can score above a passing grade.

But among so many Marvel directors, there are only three directors that Qiye can see.

Directing the "Guardians of the Galaxy" series, let this [-]-line hero team become the "roll guide" James Gunn of the first-line IP.

In front of Qiye, Taika Waititi, who made Raytheon IP shine.

Then there are the Russell brothers who are very familiar to everyone. The two brothers add up to one.

If you put aside commercial factors, just talk about the director's style.

Among several people, Qiye's favorite person is the Taika Waititi in front of him.

This eccentric director from New Zealand has a very strong personal style, and his movies have a kind of magic that makes people addicted.

Seven nights in my previous life, I have heard many people complain about Taika Waititi's "Thor 3", thinking that he turned an epic theme into a farce.

Let's not say that this is a manga movie rather than a myth movie.

If Marvel really took the epic style, what kind of style would it be?

As I said before, Marvel is not suitable for shooting so-called epic movies at all.

"Thor 1" and "Thor 2" are lessons from the past.

And unlike James Gunn, who can only make farce, Taika Waititi's movies have a kind of charm that is funny without losing true feelings.

In fact, "Thor 3" is not Taika Waititi's best movie.

Because of Marvel's interference, Taika Waititi was restrained in this movie, and many of the ideas he wanted to present were not able to present.

Qiye can also understand Marvel's thinking. After all, it is an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. If this guy makes an author's movie and the box office fails badly, it will all be over.

However, Taika Waititi's "Vampire Life" and "Hunt for the Barbarian", which were completely directed by himself, showed the audience his true skills as a director.

What this guy is good at is telling a very heartwarming story in the context of an absurd story.

A few vampires who have lived for hundreds of years but share an apartment together;

The "evil" child and the "stubborn" old man;

A Norse god with a British accent and his younger brother with a receding hairline.

These characters feel weird and distorted just by looking at the setting, but Taika Waititi can tell the audience a story that moves them.

This is also the reason why Qiye hired this guy to be his deputy in "Madoka".

The weird guy in front of him is not only good at being funny.

In fact, after Kevin Feige submitted the "Thor" plan, Qiye has been thinking about it.

If Qiye's attempt at the new style of "Thor" is not successful, then Taika Waititi will be the last insurance to ensure that the IP "Thor" can have a place in Marvel.

pS1: Focus on recommending Taika Waititi's movies.

Both "Vampire Life" and "Hunting the Barbarian" are very good works. Although they are not big special effects productions, the stories are interesting enough.
