Chapter 710: Life and Death Fighting
"You have time, go play this game. Uwe Bauer strongly recommends the favorite: "The playability and the story behind it are epic. ”
Ronan nodded, "I'll take a look at it later." ”
Uwe Bauer suddenly became worried: "Blizzard's group of people are all brainless. ”
"No progress?" Ronan asked.
Uwe Bauer smiled a little helplessly: "Stubborn like a stone, but I won't give up." ”
Ronan encouraged, "Take your time, don't rush. ”
I don't know why, Ronan suddenly felt that Uwe Bauer was like a spare tire, desperately kneeling and licking the goddess Blizzard and Warcraft in his heart, the other party was rejecting him every time, but he continued to receive him next time, and seemed to be secretly conveying hope again.
Aren't the green teas in the real society treating spare tires like this?
Probably Blizzard also knows that behind Uwe Bauer is Relativity Entertainment, what if the movie is adapted in the future?
But Ronan didn't remind Uwe Ball that the psychology of the spare tires is very peculiar, and the person who wakes them up often becomes the object of disgust and hatred.
Uwe Bauer is positive, not only with Blizzard, but also with the game adaptation: "After Vampire Ryan, I plan to start a new project. ”
Ronan understood what he meant, and asked directly, "Is there a goal?"
Uwe Bauer said with a smile: "It's still a game adaptation movie, I fancy two games, but they are both works of island people. ”
Ronan said: "It doesn't matter, the theory of relativity has business dealings with island people, and it is not difficult to get the copyright." ”
After Uwe Bauer's suggestion last time, Robert Lee's copyright and legal department got the rights to many games and comics in the island country, and the island people have "Ghost in the Shell" and "Gun Dream".
The latter was originally intended to impress James Cameron, but it didn't come in handy.
The movie rights of island games or comics are really too cheap compared to North America.
In the short term, there will be no investment in film adaptations, which are mainly hoarding copyrights.
"These two games, one is called "Life and Death Fighting", which is a fighting game of the war type. Uwe Bauer said simply: "The other one is called Silent Hill, which is a psychological horror survival game. ”
Although he had never played before, Ronan was no stranger to either name.
Ronan quickly made a decision: "You can finish the post-production of "Vampire Lane" with peace of mind first, and I will have someone take the rights to "Life and Death Fight" and "Silent Hill". ”
Uwe Bauer hurriedly said: "I inquired, the copyright of "Life and Death Fight" is still in the hands of the game manufacturer, but "Silent Hill" was bought. ”
Ronan nodded: "I have specific news, I will let you know." ”
Uwe Ball didn't stay any longer: "I'm going to go to Blizzard. ”
Ronan waved his hand: "Go ahead." ”
After Uwe Bauer left, Ronan first checked the company's copyright library, and in the past two years, in addition to the works he specified, Robert Lee has also bought the copyrights of many low-priced and valuable works such as memoirs, comics and games.
It doesn't cost much, but it enriches the company's copyright library, and you may be able to use it when you can.
Ronan opened the copyright library retrieval software, selected the game category, and clicked on the island country, and the names of many games appeared.
Somewhat surprisingly, "Silent Hill" is impressively listed.
The label shows that at the beginning of this year, the copyright and legal department bought the film and television rights from Konami in the island country.
The copyright library has a detailed description, "Silent Hill" is a psychological horror survival game, Konami began to release at the end of the last century, the plot unfolds in a movie-like way, different choices in the game process will affect the ending, and the dominance is completely in the hands of the player.
Once this game was adapted into a movie, and Ronan remembers watching it, as if the male protagonist was Sean Bean, who died in a movie with all kinds of tricks.
This horror film is still very good-looking, and the group of faceless nurses is impressive.
Whether the film adaptation was a commercial success or failure, Ronan didn't quite know, but personally, "Silent Hill" was much better than the later installments of "Resident Evil".
The game can be adapted, but the game is adapted to the movie, and the scale of investment must be limited.
Ronan extracted Silent Hill separately and included it in the project schedule.
The Copyright and Legal Department not only obtained the adaptation rights of "Silent Hill" from Konami, but also the copyrights of "Contra" and "Metal Gear Solid" in the film library list.
"Contra" is famous, it is the childhood memory of many people, and its popularity in the East even far exceeds that of "Transformers".
For those born around the 80s, many of them must have played the game in the game room or on a card console such as Xiaobawang, and those who are familiar with Hollywood can also find that the two protagonists resemble Stallone and Schwarzenegger.
When Ronan saw this name, he could still remember when he was in middle school in the town, he ran to the game room to play "Contra", and was caught by the director of the political and educational department in disguise.
The director of the political and educational department of that era was as impressive as "Contra", and he was the shadow of many people's growth.
A secondary school career would not be complete without a battle of wits with the Director of the Political and Educational Office.
"Contra" and "Metal Gear Solid", Ronan doesn't remember any related adaptations, so it's okay to put them in the copyright library for the time being.
Ronan didn't find the copyright of "Life and Death Fight" in the copyright library of Relativity Entertainment, but he looked it up on the Internet and found that several of the game's protagonists were women.
Women's fighting games, seemingly promising?
It seems that there are female UFOs or WWE players in the United States, and there should be passable figures.
Also, there must be an actress with excellent appearance, a sexy and hot beauty wearing a cool uniform, fighting on the screen, and disobedience is just one word - don't coward, just do it!
Probably there will be a market.
Perhaps this game adaptation is more suitable for Uwe Bauer than "Silent Hill".
Ronan closed the webpage and sent a relevant email to Robert Lee through the company's office system, asking the Copyright and Legal Department to find the islanders to buy the copyright.
Of course, games are only the smallest item category for the overall strategy of Relativistic Entertainment.
Because when a game meets a movie, what collides may not be sparks, but more vomit.
This kind of movie seems to have been accompanied by the dilemma that game fans don't admit it and ordinary audiences don't buy it from the beginning, and this kind of situation where the father doesn't kiss the mother and doesn't love it can be said to be the norm for game adaptation movies.
Nowadays, commercial films are increasingly dependent on adaptations, and game copyrights will inevitably become a major genre that cannot be ignored in the future, after all, game adaptations bring their own fans and influence.
The main force of the commercial film market is teenagers, who often spend their money on what they love.
In some ways, it's a shame that the former Warcraft is a game-based movie adaptation, and on the surface, it has all the ingredients for a blockbuster movie.
The results were still very unsatisfactory, and in order to recoup the huge investment, Blizzard ended up auctioning off even the shooting props......
As for the sequel, it naturally became a lifetime series.
Of course, factors such as the difficulty of making magical epics and the downturn in the market cannot be ignored.
Carefully calculated, except for the six films in the "Lord of the Rings" series shot by Peter Jackson, the other magical epics with big investment and big productions have not turned out to be ideal.
Even the well-known adaptation of "Exodus" in the Bible "Pharaoh and the King", even with Ridley Scott in charge, still pounce on it.
When it comes to audience and dissemination, World of Warcraft is much worse than Exodus.
The director's level is even worse by more than one grade.
In these respects, it doesn't seem too wronged.
Ronan has not summed up any good experience so far, and the most effective way to avoid losses is to control the scale of investment in game adaptation film projects.
At present, we can't be too optimistic about the market for game adaptations, because big investment and big productions can't attract enough audiences.
Many small production adaptations can be surprisingly successful.
In the afternoon, Ronan went to the Hughes Aircraft Factory, where the crew of "Fast and Furious 3" has begun to assemble, and the main actors who have been confirmed have also entered the crew to start preliminary preparations.
There are also roles that need to be solved through auditions.
Since Jessica Felton went to Europe to talk about advertising sponsorship, the crew was temporarily in charge of Justin Lin.
Walking in the studio where the set was built, Justin Lin introduced Ronan to the latest developments in the crew: "According to the plan, the racing family will be multi-racial. Mixed race has Dwayne Johnson, traditional white character is Paul Walker, Latino has Jordana Brewster, black is Tyrese Gibson ......"
He glanced at the actors who were auditioning not far away, all of whom were Asian actresses: "This new female role will be Asian, and the candidates have not been decided for the time being, and they have just started their first auditions." ”
Many Asian actresses sat in the waiting area temporarily opened up by the crew, because it was the first time to audition, there was no need to wear makeup, the speed of the audition was very fast, and there were actresses in and out of the audition room frequently.
Seeing that many of them were types with flat noses, small eyes and freckles, Ronan shook his head secretly and said to Justin Lin: "This Asian character, we have to fight for the Asian market and choose an actress who meets the Asian aesthetics." ”
Justin Lin understood what Ronan meant and said, "Yes." ”
Ronan asked, "What about the Chinese characters?
"I haven't looked for it yet. Justin Lin said: "Chinese characters won't be added until the next film, and it's not too late to look for them when the fourth part is being prepared." ”
Ronan nodded slightly: "Yes." ”
Many of the actresses spotted them and were a little on the move, and Ronan and Justin Lin didn't stay here long, leaving the studio and heading to the open-air set not far away.
Before he had gone far, he heard a loud roar of engines, which was clearly the sound of a high-power engine.
Normally, this is the sound made by a sports car.
