Chapter 425: Building a Kung Fu Child Star?
A finalized press conference to start the promotion of "Valkyrie" before its release.
The blockbuster publicity produced by Dawn Film and Television, no matter how much is invested, will definitely create great momentum.
"Martial God", a film directed by Mu Chen and starring Mu Ze and his wife, is naturally more powerful.
What's more, the attention of this film itself is extremely high, and it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that it is the most watched film this year.
As soon as the film was promoted, it instantly appeared on the hot search.
The first trailer of the film landed on major video websites in less than a day, and the clicks exceeded 30 million.
This has undoubtedly blinded countless people.
The trailer is not long, just over a minute.
The first picture that appeared was the words "Mu Chen's works", followed by the characters of Mu Ze, Su Xiaowan, Zhang Yao, Yuan Cheng, Gu Feng and others, mixed with some dialogues and fighting scenes.
As for the story of the film, not much was revealed.
But even so, there are many fans who watch it over and over again.
I can't stop it.
In superhero movies, the plot is actually not complicated, and it can even be said to be relatively simple.
It's not much different from those Hollywood "popcorn" blockbusters.
However, relatively speaking, the plot of such films is more attractive than those "popcorn" movies.
Fans want to understand what kind of world this "cinematic universe" created by Mu Chen through one film after another.
After Mu Chen broke out "Guardians of the Galaxy" at the finalized press conference, the concept of "Cinematic Universe" was immediately familiar to fans.
Before this, there were also fans who speculated so.
But when this speculation was really confirmed, fans were still shocked by the pattern of this world framed by Mu Chen.
One superhero movie after another has created not a movie world, but a movie universe.
Is the earth no longer able to accommodate these superheroes?
So, how many superheroes and supervillains will there be in the starry sky of the entire universe?
What a world it would be.
imitated Mu Chen to create a movie world, which suddenly made people feel a little childish.
It's really a tiger that can't be an anti-dog!
Although these films are not written by Mu Chen alone, let alone directed by him, the films are connected to each other, but they exist independently.
Naturally, fans want to know more about the plot of Valkyrie to learn more about this cinematic universe.
The promotion of the film naturally revolves around Mu Ze and Su Xiaowan, and Zhang Yao and others will naturally run for the publicity.
However, no matter how it is promoted, Mu Chen, the director, will not be able to bypass the existence, and it is also the focus of publicity.
Even Mu Chen rarely participates in publicity.
The promotion of "Martial God" in China is actually not large, at least compared to North America and other places, it is not as good.
With the box office appeal of Mu Chen and others, there is no need to worry about the domestic box office of this film.
And abroad is different.
Although Mu Chen and Mu Ze's box office appeal abroad is also machine guns, it is difficult to compare with those in China. If you don't participate in the publicity, the publicity effect will obviously not meet the expectations as in China.
"How?"
Mu Chen looked at Chen Fuhai with a smile.
The post-production of "Martial God" was completed, and Mu Chen immediately began to follow up the post-production of "Home Alone".
And the later stages of this film are not complicated, and there is not much time wasted at all.
What's more, Mu Chen only needs to follow up, and he doesn't need to do it himself, which also saves a lot of time.
In the later part of the film, he didn't participate in this way, but after the finished film came out, he was still very satisfied.
"That kid from your brother's family is undoubtedly a genius. Chen Fuhai shook his head again as he spoke, and said, "It's a pity!"
What a pity?
Mu Chen is naturally clear.
Mu Ze and Su Xiaowan did not approve of Mu Qing's entry into the entertainment industry, even Mu Chen's uncle did not approve of him entering the entertainment industry now.
It's okay to make a scene once in a while, but you can't make a career out of it.
If it weren't for that, Chen Fuhai would definitely praise Mu Qing as the hottest child star, and let Dawn Film and Television tailor a few films for him.
Child star, the Jedi is a gold-sucking weapon, maybe no worse than those popular little fresh meat.
At the beginning, the child stars who became popular in "Where Are You Going, Dad" brought extremely amazing benefits to Dawn Film and Television.
"Nothing to be sorry for. Mu Chen smiled and said, "If this film is popular, as soon as the market opens, it will be time to bring out a child star." ”
When Mu Chen said this, two little bald heads suddenly appeared in his mind.
"There is a great possibility that this film will be popular. Chen Fuhai nodded and said.
He couldn't help but laugh when he watched it, so what about the average movie fan?
"You say, do we want to create a kung fu child star?" Mu Chen said with a smile, "Well, let's set up a funny little fat man, two partners, such as ......"
As soon as Mu Chen talked about it, he immediately told the setting of Shi Xiaolong and Hao Shaowen in the film when they were children, and even mentioned some related film plots.
The more Chen Fuhai listened, the more surprised he became, and the light in his eyes became more and more.
It didn't take long for the surprise to turn into a surprise.
What Mu Chen said, in his opinion, is undoubtedly very operational.
If it is successful, then Dawn Film and Television will have two popular child stars. This can definitely bring unimaginable benefits to Dawn Film and Television.
Mu Chen was so brainy, Chen Fuhai was also surprised.
This is completely a routine operation of Mu Chen.
"This matter can be put on the agenda. After listening to Mu Chen's words, Chen Fuhai nodded and said.
Mu Chen smiled.
Dream Pictures is preparing to create the "Harry Potter" series, and it will definitely have a wave of child stars in its hands when the time comes.
How can Dawn Film and Television lag behind?
It's just that if you want to expand the influence of the "Kung Fu Kid" series internationally, the difficulty is not ordinary.
However, now that Chinese films have opened the door to the international market, it may not be impossible for kung fu child stars to achieve a certain influence in the world.
If kung fu children become popular, will foreign fans think that Chinese children know kung fu?
"Marin is back. Chen Fuhai continued.
"Huh?" Mu Chen was stunned for a moment, then understood why Chen Fuhai mentioned Ma Lin, and said, "You mean to put him in charge of this?"
"Ask him for his opinion. Chen Fuhai said, "However, I think it's a bit overkill to let him be in charge of this." He needs to keep himself busy. ”
Mu Chen nodded.
Marin is one of the few first-line directors of Dawn Film and Television.
And there is also a little bit of a name internationally. Creating a kung fu child star is indeed a bit overkill.
At least, filming a film like "The Laughing Forest Kid" is a bit overkill.
For such a movie, there are many directors of Dawn Film and Television who can easily control it.
Qin Yu hit Ma Lin a lot, and being busy could also make him forget.
"Why don't you say anything when you come back, if it weren't for Lao Chen's mention, I wouldn't have known you were back?"
Mu Chen knocked on the door of Marin's office, pushed the door in, and said with a smile.
"Why, you're so busy, are you still going to pick me up and wash the dust?" said Marin with a smile.
"It's not impossible!" Mu Chen said with a smile.
"There's no need. Ma Lin said, "You are busy with the promotion of "Martial God", Zhao Jin is still filming in the crew, and Wang Hao's guy is probably also busy." I'm not as fragile as you think. ”
Ma Lin naturally knew that Mu Chen was worried about himself.
"That's good. Mu Chen smiled and said, "What were you busy with just now?"
"Of course it's a new film!" Marin said, "I can't take money for nothing and not work." ”
Taking money for nothing and not working is naturally a joke.
A director of Marin's level is naturally paid. Even if you don't make films, you still have a lot of income every month.
However, it cannot be compared with filming.
The contracted directors of Dawn Film and Television, in addition to the so-called salary, also have a profit share such as the box office of the film.
Of course, there are high and low divisions.
Ma Lin's share ratio is undoubtedly second only to Mu Chen in Dawn Film and Television, and a little higher than Yu Yun.
He took this proportion, not because of his relationship with Mu Chen, but because of his strength.
Since Marin changed careers, almost every work has been a big hit.
He also has a lot more works than Yu Yun.
What's more, he is also the veteran of Dawn Film and Television.
The share ratio is higher than Yu Yun's, except for Mu Chen and Ma Lin, there is no one left. For example, Gaoxin Xu Lin, who signed with Dawn Film and Television earlier.
Of course, the two are now not only directors, but also the senior management of Dawn Film and Television.
They are in charge of the Dawn film and television series.
"What are you going to shoot?" Mu Chen asked with a smile.
Ma Lin naturally had some ideas, and Mu Chen didn't mention the matter of kung fu child stars.
"I'm going to make a magical adventure. "There are a lot of films in Hollywood about the Egyptian pyramids, the pharaohs, and so on. And similar elements, there are not many in Huaxia. So, I wanted to make a film about the Terracotta Warriors of the Qin Emperor. ”
Mu Chen didn't interject, and Marin's words were obviously not finished.
"The Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang are well-known at home and abroad, and they have many unsolved mysteries and legends. Ma Lin said, "For example, the elixir of life, the twelve golden men, etc., and what is the inside of the underground palace, I think there should be many people who want to know." I'm even wondering if I should resurrect Qin Shi Huang in the end, and then let the Great Qin army have a big war with the modern army......"
"Give me some advice?" After Ma Lin finished speaking, seeing that Mu Chen was silent, he immediately said.
"Very good. Mu Chen smiled and said.
This time, Marin's idea is still solid. At least, it was much more reliable than his previous war of technological civilization and cultivation civilization.
"Whew!" Marin said with a deep breath and a smile, "I thought you were going to pour cold water on me again." ”
"Are you going to write it yourself, or do you want to discuss it with someone from the screenwriting department?" Mu Chen asked with a smile.
Of course, I discussed it with someone from the screenwriting department. "However, I'm going to write it first, and then let the people in the writing department fill in the gaps." By the way, what kind of terracotta warriors and horses resurrection and modern army war, can such a plot pass the trial?"
"Write it first, then hand it in and read it. Mu Chen said, "Now that I have let go a lot, it shouldn't be a big problem." In "Sword Immortal" and "Martial God", don't the gods and devils appear?"
