There must be a degree of opportunism, otherwise, even if it is done, the volume itself is so large, but the cost of throwing out a lot has reached a level that cannot be reached by this method.

Tianmeng's three major projects this time are indeed large-scale, but they are also wronged, and the copyrights of bestsellers in North America have become strange things with the big sales of more and more best-selling adaptations.

The Hollywood giant can't easily win it, let alone a company from China, and no one believes it if there is no unknown PY deal in it.

It can be seen that Tianmeng must have paid a huge and expensive price in it.

The group of people in Hollywood even dare to cheat on Wall Street, let alone the film companies on the Huaguo side.

Of course, if Tianmeng's three projects are successful, then it's another matter, even if it doesn't make money, but the content is made, it will be profitable sooner or later.

After all, the first part is the key and the most expensive, and if the first part is successful, the follow-up financing will be very simple.

But if the first part of the series fails, it will basically lose money and make money, and you won't even be able to make money.

In fact, many people are not optimistic about Tianmeng, not because the three major projects are not good enough and the lineup is not strong enough, but because the three projects of Tianmeng are difficult to shoot in the short term.

Because all three projects involve a lot of special effects, and special effects are the most time-consuming to make.

In other words, this is a successful project, but the cycle is too long, and it is too early to say whether it will succeed.

"Infinite Reincarnation", "Knights and Magic", and "Mystery of the World" three series, the first part will have to wait at least a year or two for it to come out.

After all, from preparation to shooting, to the long post-production and special effects production, there is not a year or two for you to dare to shoot it, and they dare not release it.

With such a long cycle, it is difficult for Tianmeng to have other works.

Of course, this refers to Tianmeng, not several shareholder companies of Tianmeng.

On the side of Lingxiao Pavilion, the other two "Three Kingdoms Series" of Longteng have been announced to be completed, post-production has begun, and they will be released soon.

Although the first part of the "Three Kingdoms Series" cannot be regarded as a big hit, it is not bad, and everyone knows that the series of movies has a very big charm, that is, accumulating fans, especially movies like "Three Kingdoms Series", unlike other movies, this kind of movie, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" itself has made a role positioning for these people, and it has a bit of mythological character color, and it is far more convenient to make movies than other histories.

At the same time, the "Three Kingdoms Series" itself has strong support from the official Chinese film, so basically unless it encounters a film like "Six Roads" like before, otherwise, the film schedule must be the highest treatment.

Movies like "Three Kingdoms Series" themselves have unique Chinese characteristics, but of course there are drawbacks, that is, it is often difficult for this kind of film to perform well abroad, especially in Europe and the United States.

But there are also advantages, this kind of film is very hot in the East Asian cultural circle, and it has a great sense of cultural identity in Asia.

The box office will naturally not be too bad, for example, the first "Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" sold very well in East Asia such as island countries.

Tianmeng's ambitions are indeed very big, Ling Xiaoge's side, to make a dragon to build a "Three Kingdoms Series" movie, the target is only the domestic market in China, and at most the Asian market, but the three series of Tianmeng directly invited Hollywood directors and Hollywood teams, and spent a lot of money to buy super IP, so they naturally want to reach the sky in one step.

Of course, the risk is definitely greater, in fact, Tianmeng has minimized the risk.

Knights & Magic itself was once the first single-player console game and has a huge fan base around the world.

So such a movie, no matter how bad it is, the box office can still be expected, of course, there are disadvantages when there are more fans, that is, it is difficult to reconcile.

And "The Mystery of the World" is a super IP that has been on the list for 30 consecutive weeks of bestsellers in North America, but this is a Western fantasy work, so it is really difficult to say whether it can achieve the goal.

Let's take Huaguo as an example, although Hollywood movies have killed all sides for so many years, in fact, Hollywood blockbusters are not invincible.

Hollywood movies, those modern films, action movies, superheroes and other popcorn movies are indeed very marketable in China, it can be said that they have begun to use movies to open up the Chinese audience's sense of identity with some Western cultures, but no matter how good Hollywood movies are, it is still impossible to break through cultural boundaries.

For example, Western fantasy films, in fact, Hollywood movies rarely achieve any big hits in China.

This is already good, after all, Chinese people are always Chinese people, no matter how you accept it, there is an upper limit, unless it is an IP like "Knights and Magic", which itself has made Chinese gamers understand deeply, otherwise, IP like "Mystery of the World" is actually not so popular in China.

Besides, "Infinite Reincarnation" is a sci-fi masterpiece in China, but in fact, the fame is not as big as imagined, because in China, sci-fi works have been in decline for many years, although they have rebounded in recent years, but such IPs are even difficult to compare with those big romance IPs in China.

Therefore, in fact, when Lin Xiao and Yao Ding and others discussed, they didn't care so much about the three major projects of Tianmeng.

If Lin Xiao was asked to choose, except for "Knights and Magic", he would not choose the other two.

Even in Lin Xiao's opinion, "Infinite Reincarnation" and "Mystery of the World" are not as suitable as movies like "Home Alone".

"Home Alone" still embarrassed Lin Xiao for a long time, not to mention "Infinite Reincarnation" and "Mystery of the World".

If "Infinite Reincarnation" is filmed by Lin Xiao, he will only shoot it for domestic audiences, while the main target audience of "Mystery of the World" is actually audiences in Europe and the United States.

As for domestic, it's really hard to say.

"What the hell, invite me to star in "Knights and Magic" and "Mystery of the World"?" Lin Xiao looked at Xiao Jie with a confused expression.

"yes, the call came to me. Xiao Jie looked at Lin Xiaodao with a smile.

"No, what do they mean by this? Do they think I'll take it, and what kind of salary do they plan to give me?" Lin Xiao was a little surprised at first, and then asked with some curiosity.

"100 million Chinese dollars + 5% global box office share! Well, it's quite sincere. "Xiao Jie is a little authentic.

"Tsk, it's really sincere, but what do you think they mean? Do you really want to invite me, or do you have another purpose?" Lin Xiao asked after a sigh of relief.

"Is there a difference? As long as this invitation is sent, whether you accept it or not, their purpose has been achieved. Xiao Jie clasped her hands to her chest and said with a smile.
