After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

Ultraman and the Kamen Rider series are relatively different.

Of course, being able to be introduced by an American company and filming the American version can also show that it is not much lower.

Not to mention benevolent comics like Dragon Ball.

Kevin's key acquisition here is the film and TV adaptation rights of some well-known works in the United States and Japan.

It has to be said that in this era, no one really recognizes the power of copyright.

Although the price offered is not low, it is far from the real price of the copyright.

For the Ultraman series, the Kamen Rider series, and the Sentai series, Kevin has acquired the rights to adapt movies and TV series.

In addition to the copyright of a series of other works, in Japan, the copyright alone cost an investment of 3000 to [-] million US dollars.

Chapter 380 Selection of Infinite Universe Movie

Kevin is sure that these copyrights can bring him ten times and a hundred times the income in the future.

This is beyond doubt.

Hollywood in the future has realized the power of IP and chose this path.

Marvel, DC, Transformers, to name a few, all of them are big IP movies.

In contrast, the amount of investment received by original films is getting smaller and smaller.

The reason is also very simple, nothing more than a high risk, a small risk that's all.

In addition to Japanese copyrights, the United States has also purchased a lot.

Of course, there are also some from the UK or other countries, but those who are well-known in the United States also bought a lot.

However, the overall scale is not as good as that of Japan. One is the price, and the other is that it is also a Hollywood film company, which is not completely unmoved by the copyright.

Therefore, the copyright in the US region is actually not much obtained.

It tends to be some best-selling books that are not very well adapted.

After looking through some of these copyrights, Kevin finally decided to try to shoot the infinite universe.

With the volume of the infinite universe, it is destined to be a very long story.

Kevin decided to shoot a trilogy of infinite universes first.

Judging from the size of the infinite universe, which can encompass everything, if one protagonist is fixed, it will undoubtedly limit the infinite universe.

But if the ending is not fixed, it would be better if the teams are divided by continents or countries in the original novel.

Thinking of this, Kevin couldn't help sighing again in his heart, it's amazing to be the first to think of this story.

Of course, it was his now.

With this in mind, Kevin immediately began to conceive this new original work in a hurry.

First of all, since it is a Hollywood movie, the protagonist is naturally the American team, and the people in the team are all from the American continent.

After writing this, Kevin paused the pen in his hand, and began to modify the settings of the infinite universe according to his own ideas.

First of all, the space of the main god is transformed into an infinite space, and the big light ball remains unchanged, but it is set as a product of four-dimensional technology.

It is an ultra-dimensional machine, which is specifically set in the three-dimensional dimension and can create everything in the void. In short, it is leaning towards God.

As for the relationship with God at the beginning, Kevin directly gave up.

There are quite a few Christians in this country. If things are not done well, they will inevitably be boycotted by demonstrations, and that will be troublesome.

After careful consideration, Kevin decided to give up the idea.

Restructure a history.

The intelligent brain machine of the four-dimensional universe can be regarded as a preliminary setting.

However, in the movie, there is no rush to reveal the origin of this big ball of light, just set a tall name, such as the master of the era, and that's it.

It is best to leave enough brain space for the audience.

Then there is the setting of the protagonist.

An ordinary-looking office worker is unremarkable, which is called a sense of substitution.

Of course, in the movie, in order to compare and become handsome after exchanging rewards, naturally we can't really find an ordinary person.

In the early stage, makeup is used to cover up the handsomeness, and in the later stage, after the rewards are redeemed, the real appearance is shown.

As for the actors, there is no other candidate except Liang Tang.

Specifically, for the first appearance of the infinite universe, Kevin plans to use the copyright of six movies to show it in three movies.

To put it simply, it means that the first movie will be streamed infinitely, and two movies will be used.

As for what movie to use, Kevin has already thought about it.

One is 007.

As MGM's trump card, after MGM was bought by Kevin, it fell into Kevin's hands.

However, the 007 series is currently in a low period, and there are no new ideas in the filming, and the attention of the audience cannot be gained.

But 007's fundamentals are still stable.

It has been nearly 1962 years since the first 007 movie was released in 40.

Among them, nineteen movies have been jointly maintained, and the status of this IP has been successfully raised.

It is worth mentioning that just last year, MGM produced a 007 sequel alone.

After receiving the business support of Chenxi Films, MGM's funds have become more abundant as a whole, and it is no longer like when it was in the hands of a casino tycoon and needed to be responsible for its own profits and losses.

To put it simply, the money in hand starts to waste.

Of course, in fact, it was just squandering Kevin's money.

But that's what Kevin allowed.

MGM is more or less a golden brand in Hollywood. Although it is almost half-integrated with Chenxi Films, there is still a competitive relationship.

The status is definitely not comparable to Chenxi Films created by Kevin, but Leiter does not admit defeat.

With financial support, Leiter also became more motivated, and was bound to take MGM to a new height.

This 007 project was created by MGM.

However, Kevin seldom interfered with MGM's business. What he gave was only financial support. Although Leiter would report on the specific business regularly, Kevin didn't pay much attention to it.

This is also helpless, after all, Kevin is only a human being, not a god.

As the company's business grows, it's normal for energy to start running out.

MGM, in Kevin's view, actually has potential, but before that, because there is no capital support, the cost of trial and error is too high.

It may take seven or eight years before it can afford the loss of a major production.

In this case, it is naturally difficult to stand up.

It's different now, after receiving stable financial support, and Kevin keeping most of the profits in the company as the company's development funds.

MGM was able to bear the loss of a major production in two years, which made MGM spend a lot of money immediately.

Last year's 007's Black Sun Crisis was Leiter's masterpiece.

With a production cost of 500 million U.S. dollars including promotional expenses, it earned a global box office of [-] million U.S. dollars, which is considered to have earned tens of millions.

Coupled with the impact of driving IP, the sales of surrounding areas have increased greatly, and the overall scattered ones can earn [-] million US dollars.

Compared with the film project of Chenxi Films, it may not be a big deal, but in fact, this is the norm in Hollywood.

The projects of Chenxi Films were all selected by Kevin, and it was difficult to lose money.

Many of them are later hit projects.

That's why the profit ratio can be so exaggerated.

But Kevin also felt that these items were used less and less.

For this reason, he began to worry about creating an infinite universe.

It is to integrate resources and revive those copyrights one by one.

The original Infinity Horror, used Resident Evil as the first film.

It's a pity that the movie hasn't been released yet.

At the same time, as a movie, this kind of zombie movie actually has a limited audience, so it is more suitable to be used as the source of the opponent's ability, or the background of the opponent's world.

Chapter 381 Talk

In Kevin's setting, a trilogy and six films are used to express the world view of the infinite world.

In the sixth film, Kevin prepares to arrange a team fight.

You can arrange a zombie ability enhancement for the protagonist's opponent, such as a tyrant.

These are all good settings.

As for the movies selected among the movies, there are several requirements. First, the subject matter should not be niche.

Second, the visibility should be high.

For example, 007, although it is now in decline.

But it was brilliant.

This is the most suitable.

At the same time, the actors of 007 are actually quite easy to invite.

Of course, Kevin would not choose the current 007.

That is undoubtedly a deliberate increase in costs.

At the same time, the two movie worlds in the movie naturally have different degrees of importance.

As for the 007 series, the first part, at most 10 minutes, has to resolve the battle.

More pen and ink will be put in the second film.

As a director, Kevin knows exactly what the audience wants to see.

In such a magical space, what the audience wants to see is of course the protagonist gaining superpowers, and then entering the movie world to kill all directions.

Therefore, the first three 10 minutes are actually used to shape the characters of the protagonist and supporting roles.

After the protagonist gets growth and rewards in the first movie and gets to know his teammates, he can show his strength in the second movie.

As for what to use for the second movie,

This also requires Kevin to think about it.

Kevin reviewed in his mind the Morning Sun movie and all the movies he had an impression of from MGM up to now, and then picked one by one, and then gave up.

The first book in a series is always the hardest and requires the most effort.

Especially if this is an original story.

Although the content and copyright of the two films are involved.

But when the reincarnation is involved in these plots, it will naturally change, which is no less than reshooting.

Oh, that's Kevin's name for the person chosen by the master of the dimension, and he changed it lazily.

Kevin is hard at work.

Mitt is very chic.

I didn't bear too much pressure on my body, and the response yesterday was quite good.

So last night, he went out for a walk.

I have to say, as a Two-dimensional, Mitt is quite afraid of guilt.

At this time, I can prevaricate by being busy at home.

Don't get entangled with your wife.
