After filming "Titanic", Mu Chen no longer has much interest in the classic movies in his mind.

Using the original version as a reference, you may be able to save a lot of time and energy, or even surpass the original, but no matter how well you shoot and how high your achievements are, the joy and sense of achievement after success are getting lower and lower.

When people reach a certain level, they will have different pursuits.

Mu Chen Nowadays, there is no shortage of money or fame, the family is happy, and making movies is no longer for money, for career, it is purely a hobby, or a kind of spiritual sustenance.

But if you blindly use the original version as a reference, it obviously won't work.

There is no difficulty, no challenge, it is too easy, how can there be joy and a sense of accomplishment after success?

After success, there is no joy and no sense of accomplishment, who will continue to do it?

Mu Chen doesn't know, if he doesn't make movies, what else can he do?

Perhaps, there is still a lot of work to do, but unfortunately he hasn't thought about it yet.

Inspired by "Covering the Sky", and even borrowed some of its settings, adapted a fantasy movie, and even created a fantasy world.

This is undoubtedly a challenge for Mu Chen.

What's the fun if you keep doing things that don't have a challenge?

However, Mu Chen really hasn't thought about how to adapt it, and he has to wait for "Titanic" to discuss it with the people in the screenwriting department.

One person's skills are short, and everyone's skills are long.

With the help of everyone, I think I will definitely be able to come up with a satisfactory script.

Of course, the discussion is not only about the script, but also about the feasibility of this fantasy world, and whether it is a fantasy world that leads to a fantasy world with the main character and me, or is composed of many superheroes like the superhero movie universe.

If the main line is based on the main character, it is relatively much simpler.

But if it is made up of many superheroes like the superhero movie universe, then who are the people in this fantasy world?

Mu Chen didn't finish reading the original book, but some of the characters in it still left a lot of impression on him.

It doesn't seem impossible to make up those characters.

For example, the ruthless emperor, the beginningless emperor, Gai Jiuyou, Jiang Taixu and so on.

Can't the experiences of these characters be made into personal films?

If you create a fantasy world that "covers the sky", then it is a world where the human race fights against the starry sky.

Those protagonists are unyielding Terran powerhouses.

Of course, Mu Chen hasn't thought about it yet. Like the ruthless emperor, whether it will appear in the form of the protagonist or in the form of a supporting role, these still need to be discussed before a decision can be made.

However, no matter what, this fantasy world will kick off in the form of a coffin in Kowloon.

The protagonist and others travel to Mount Tai and are taken into the starry sky by the falling Nine Dragons coffin, and then enter a fantasy world.

A fantasy world where the human race is struggling to survive under the oppression of hundreds of races.

"Journey to the West: Fu Demon" was released, and the popularity was amazing.

As Marin said, this film has been complained by many fans of the original book.

The film is too different from the original.

Especially in the end, in order to make a big scene, it turned out to be a big battle between Lingshan and Heavenly Court and the demon clan.

However, more fans have given great affirmation to the adaptation of this film.

And the reputation of the film is also extremely good.

Of course, the box office of the film is also quite amazing.

On the first day of release, the domestic box office exceeded 300 million, winning the single-day box office champion, and the blockbusters released at the same time just broke 200 million.

The box office is very different!

The film schedule is about the same, which also shows that "Journey to the West: The Demon Fu" has a high attendance rate with other films.

And the first-day box office in North America was also good, nearly 40 million US dollars, narrowly winning the single-day box office championship.

Of course, this is also due to the fact that this schedule is not very good abroad, and there are no strong competitors. Otherwise, the first-day box office of more than 30 million may not be able to win the single-day box office championship.

However, such a box office undoubtedly met expectations.

"Journey to the West" still has a lot of influence in North America and other places, and the corresponding peripheral products are selling well.

It's just that it's not as good as China and Southeast Asia.

After all, compared with Europe and the United States, Southeast Asia and other places are more influenced by Chinese culture.

And director Yu Yun has achieved success in several films, and still has a certain box office appeal in North America and other places.

What's more, there is also Mu Chen's influence in it.

For this film, Mu Chen is the nominal screenwriter and producer. The most important thing is this film, which is adapted from Mu Chen.

"Journey to the West" has been translated into many languages and is also a bestseller in North America and other places.

Of course, in addition to the work itself, the best-selling work also has Mu Chen's fame in it.

The follow-up performance of the film is still the same, which shows that foreign fans are also quite fond of this film.

Such an adaptation for the international market is undoubtedly a success.

"Journey to the West: Fu Demon" was a global hit, and "Martial God 2" was launched immediately.

"The third part of "Jurassic Park", I think I can think about it. Chen Fuhai said to Mu Chen.

This is a big IP, the first two films can be said to have swept the world at the box office, and there is a market basis for filming the third part.

This series of movies has an extremely large fan base.

Among other things, its merchandise sells extremely well all over the world.

Of course, compared to the peripheral products of the Transformers series and the superhero movie series, it is much worse.

There is no reason why the corresponding movie of "Jurassic Park" has been too long.

The third part, in fact, should have been on the agenda a long time ago.

As for why I remembered it at this time, this is not unrelated to the large number of big IPs in the hands of Dawn Film and Television.

There are too many films that can be made, and it is inevitable that some of them will not be able to take care of it.

"Contact Director Zhang to see if he's interested. Well, there is still time. Mu Chen nodded, and then said.

Zhang Gang directed the first two films, which were extremely good in terms of word-of-mouth and box office.

Mu Chen also said that as long as Zhang Gang is willing, this series is his.

Of course, if Zhang Gang refuses, it is not that he cannot find other directors.

"Contacted. Chen Fuhai said, "How could he refuse this series of movies." ”

Whether it's for fame or profit, this series of movies is indeed hard to refuse.

Zhang Gang has made a lot of movies, and most of them are making money, even if it is a literary film. But if you make the most money, it is definitely the cooperation with Mu Chen and Dawn Film and Television, among which the two "Jurassic Park" are the most.

The contract of Dawn Film and Television is very loose, but why few people change jobs, it is because famous actors and directors have box office dividends, and even the staff behind the scenes, it is just a matter of how much.

Even, if you win a prize, there are additional rewards.

Of course, if it is an actor from another company, no matter how famous he is, he will not have this benefit.

But the director has!

It's just that the dividend ratio is not as good as the contracted director of Dawn Film and Television.

The specific dividends are naturally related to the director's ability and box office appeal.

A top-level domestic director like Zhang Gang has great influence in the world, and his dividend ratio is not much better than that of the contracted directors of Dawn Film and Television.

"Jurassic Park" is such a big IP, and the box office is greatly guaranteed in the world, how could Zhang Gang refuse.

He doesn't have an amazing net worth like Mu Chen.

"By the way, I wrote a script, you can see who is suitable for filming!" Mu Chen suddenly said.

"Script, what script?" Chen Fuhai was a little surprised.

He knew that Mu Chen wanted to create a fantasy world, and the screenwriting department was already pondering, just waiting for the later completion of "Titanic", and immediately began to discuss and create.

At this time, Mu Chen still had the mind and energy to create another script.

Not to create another script, but to write!

Yes, another movie in his head.

A film that can be called a phenomenon.

"You take your time, I'll go over and have a look. Mu Chen said with a smile.

He went to follow up on the later stages of "Titanic".

When he returned to the office again, Chen Fuhai had already finished reading the script.

"How?"

Mu Chen asked with a smile.

"It's not easy to make a realistic movie with a critical theme. Chen Fuhai said.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the trial?" Mu Chen smiled and said, "Movies like "Sword Fairy" and "Mage" can pass the review, and this film should be fine. ”

Although the film explores various real-life contradictions and dilemmas, such as: the survival dilemma of patients, the moral dilemma of drug dealers, the legal dilemma of the police, and the commercial dilemma of pharmaceutical companies. While depicting the dilemma, it also makes people think about the dilemma. The warmth and hope contained in it make people feel the power of humanity. ”

Mu Chen continued.

The script of the film "I Am Not the God of Medicine", Mu Chen actually wrote it a long time ago, but he forgot it for a while.

Two days ago, I cleaned up the study and suddenly found out.

When he wrote this script, Mu Chen planned to direct it himself. Now, though, he's not much interested.

Nowadays, he really doesn't have much interest in movies with this theme.

Perhaps, he knows that the film will do well at the domestic box office, but not at the foreign box office.

He has swept the world with each film over the years, if he makes a movie like this......

Maybe it's because of fame!

"I'm just saying it's hard to do, not that it's not going to be done. Chen Fuhai shook his head and said, "Passing the trial is secondary, and the difficulty of the movie itself is the key." If nothing else, it is a big challenge for the actor's acting skills. It's a classic when it's filmed, and I'm afraid it's not good......"

Mu Chen nodded, regardless of the protagonist or the supporting role. If it is performed well, it will be a great highlight. But if you don't play it well, it's undoubtedly a pity to waste such a good role.

Then the film will naturally be affected.

"Why did you suddenly want to write such a script?" asked Chen Fuhai curiously.

"Wrote it a long time ago. Mu Chen said casually, "Two days ago, I took the time to tidy up the study and turned it out." ”

When Chen Fuhai heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Such a good script, he forgot about it in the study?

"Then you go back and look through it and see if you can find two more scripts. Chen Fuhai then said.

When Mu Chen heard this, he smiled awkwardly.
