I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Chapter 1379 Eastern Hollywood?



The same goes for District 9.

This kind of science fiction film always has a good audience.

As long as the script is not bad and the special effects can keep up, it might be a hit that year.

Thank you Mr. Han for clarifying the confusion, it's just Future Water World...

Don't say anything special about this.

God can't save this thing.

Just look at those that are as famous as Future Water World. One is Heaven's Gate, which directly led to the disintegration of the investor, United Artists.

This film company, which came from the golden age of Hollywood and was established by Chaplin, Mary Pickford, and Douglas Fairbanks, could only be sold to MGM in the end, stopped film production, and was only responsible for distribution.

That's right, they were MGM who took over.

The second is Cut Throat Island. Because the subject matter was too advanced, Carlock Company had to declare bankruptcy.

The third Return to Earth made the director of The Sixth Sense unemployed.

The fourth is Wu Yusen's Windtalker. This movie not only made him get out of Hollywood in despair, but also made our Nicholas Zhao Si a box office poison.

The fifth part is Future Water World.

Kevin Costner, who made excellent works such as Dances with Wolves and Bodyguard, was a big name in Hollywood before this movie. After this movie, he not only lost his job as a director, but he couldn't even play the leading role .

Top five money-losing movies.

Anyone who wants to go bankrupt can choose to give it a try.

It's easy to find ideas. You haven't seen Mad Max, have you noticed that it is similar to Future Water World? Concubine Han encouraged Mary Palen with eyes that have changed with the times. special.

Mary Parente was suddenly enlightened.

The story structure of Mad Max and Future Water World is almost the same, except that the ocean is replaced by a desert.

The same doomsday scene, the same scarcity of resources.

The same big gangs with resources control the society.

One is to look for the legendary land, and the other is to look for the oasis in memory.

The same individual hero rewrites the social landscape.

Even the sub-cameras are the same, and Mad Max won 6 Oscars, the box office is hot, and the praise is rave.

If not what is the difference.

You can talk about the goddess Charlize Theron, and you can also talk about a group of beautiful girls in the background of the end of the day, wearing the same clothes and not wearing them.

Some are secret Uyghur supermodels.

Some are granddaughters of Elvis Presley.

Some are Guo Dashen's girlfriend.

Drag racing, bloody...

Hearing Concubine Han's analysis, Mary Parent's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Oh, God.

What the heck did MGM just nearly miss.

No wonder it hasn't worked all these years.

It turned out that the thinking of people like myself was too solidified, and they had long been unable to keep up with the times.

Everything is not without reason.

Mary Parente, who was hit by Concubine Han, was a little downcast.

The arrogance of Hollywood filmmakers is completely gone-no matter how restrained they are, this arrogance still exists.

Compared with Hollywood, China's film industry still has a long way to go.

The problem with Mary Parent and others is that they are Hollywood filmmakers, but they are also Hollywood filmmakers who have been recruited by Huaxia Capital.

They desperately want to make a difference.

Not only to prove himself to the donor's father, but also to prove himself to the whole Hollywood.

Huaxia Capital does not affect our identity as Hollywood filmmakers.

Now, the slap on the face made her realize her narrowness and ignorance.

She even felt that the whole of Hollywood was too decadent.

Before that, if she was asked to praise Maochang's entertainment industry, she might give it a very high evaluation-such as Eastern Hollywood.

Xiangjiang used to be like this.

They have also been complacent about it for many years, and the Chinese stars who went to Hollywood to develop are also proud of it.

Now, she didn't dare to praise like that.

A cat factory is a cat factory.

China is China.

This is the largest movie market in the world.

It's not Eastern Hollywood, it's Chinese movies.

Hollywood movies have gradually lost their vitality, and those few IPs are the best sellers every year, and the Eastern movie kingdom still has unlimited possibilities.

Mary Parente had seen the Qin twins.

But I will still be amazed by their appearance and temperament.

As a filmmaker, her first impression was to cast the twins as elves.

Unfortunately, the status of these two in the cat factory system is much higher than hers, so she can't afford such people.

Maochang doesn't talk about things at all.

Except for the boss.

In any case, the boss will have to have a meal before the negotiation can be concluded.

MGM, Station M, and the distribution department quickly reached a cooperation agreement.

MGM's request is to sell some film and television copyrights to Station M, not just MGM's works, but actually this part has already been authorized.

What Mary Parent wants to represent is the entire American and European world.

Give the good works over there to Station M, so as to enrich the resource library of Station M.

On the distribution side, MGM hopes that the distribution department can help distribute their own movies, as well as movies from other companies.

It can be understood that MGM wants to make a difference in the middle.

The fact that middlemen earn the price difference does not mean that procurement costs will definitely increase.

MGM has a better understanding of the US and European markets, and it is easier for them to negotiate the price.

No matter where you are from, everyone has a tradition.

That is to trick outsiders.

China is an outsider to the United States and Europe.

Of course, with the exception of Lianxiang, they only cheated on their own people.

Cooperation is not simple only these.

This is imported.

Only a small part is imported, and station M does not accept all orders.

Don't even think about getting in bad things.

The focus is on export.

Exports are also essential. One of the most important purposes of Maochang's acquisition of MGM is to export Wenhua.

Mary Parent understood this too.

Therefore, for the requirements of Maochang, MGM is very cooperative.

MGM will push a large number of Chinese movies to online video and TV in the United States and Europe. As long as there is traffic, they will pay for it.

There are also TV shows and animations.

In fact, TV dramas can better reflect the daily life of a society.

Movies often can't.

Especially for those well-known movies, the ones that win awards, they habitually zoom in on a point.

And crooked nuts are often interested in the bad things about Huaxia.

TV dramas are not so literary and artistic, and often better reflect the economic environment and living conditions.

Station M has selected a lot of suitable martial arts dramas, urban dramas, and historical dramas and pushed them over.

It doesn't matter how much you sell, the point is to open a window.

The province is twisting this way all day long.

Mary Parent also said that she can try to make a movie with Chinese elements, but she can't let Disney make Mulan, and their Hollywood company of Huaxia Capital does nothing.

This is obviously to please the patron's father.

Mary Parent didn't even know how brilliant MGM's 2018 was, and she was still worried about whether the sponsor's father would give up on them after losing all the money.

If MGM wants to make a movie with Chinese elements, Maochang will naturally not object.

But the cat factory must send a consultant.

Lest we destroy our culture.
