Chapter 399: The Golden Age of the Great Dip!
A man at work is far more attractive than a man who strips naked and sells muscles.
Penelope Cruz adores Donn so much that little stars are flowing in front of him, "You're so successful, usually...... Just enjoy life more, if you like girls, you can have more relationships, anyway, your conditions are so good, is it necessary to work so hard?"
Tang En sighed and said, "If you don't work hard, you can't do it! Have you forgotten yesterday's phone call? That old guy Lei Shidong made me kneel with a word, and there was no room for resistance. If you don't work hard, how can you get revenge?"
Penelope Cruz frowned exquisitely, "But Mr. Lei Shidong has been in business for decades, so he has today's industry and strength, maybe after a few years, he won't be able to get out of bed, and you don't need to do it." ”
Tang En snorted: "So, I have to speed up the struggle! Strive to teach Lei Shidong a profound lesson when he is active, otherwise he will not even have a chance to take revenge! Let him understand that humiliating me in the matter of "Six Feet Under" is the biggest mistake of his life!"
Penelope Cruz wrinkled her nose, "You're so angry." ”
This kind of thing, in the past, she would definitely not dare to say it to Don.
However, since yesterday, the relationship between the two has obviously changed, from physical communication, there is more spiritual communication.
Tang En sighed and shook his head, "I don't want to, but look at my age, I'm only 23 years old! If I don't fight, rob, or fight, so many bullies and impatient guys will swallow me alive sooner or later." The pressure to survive in Hollywood is too great!"
Penelope Cruz pursed her lips and smiled, leaned into his ear, and whispered, "So you're looking for all kinds of girls to decompress?"
"Huh?" Donn's eyes lit up and he kissed her excitedly, "Good idea! Okay, I'll use this reason to prevaricate in the future." ”
"Donn, you're so bad!" Penelope Cruz snickered as he covered his mouth, then blinked quickly and stared at the computer screen, full of anticipation, "this...... What kind of movie is this?"
Don smiled and patted her waist and hips, "Now you have to put all your mind on 'Erica', that is a long-term role, a female superhero, play this role well, you don't have to worry about it in this life, don't be greedy." ”
Penelope Cruz pouted, "I just asked, and I didn't ask for a role." ”
Don shook his head, a little amused, "This is not a movie, it's a script for a TV series." ”
"TV series?"
Penelope Cruz's exotic eyes widened again.
Obviously, in her opinion, it is a bit overkill for a top Hollywood director like Donn to study TV series.
Tang En snorted coldly: "Lei Shidong gave me a dismissal, then good, I will increase the capital investment and energy investment in the TV industry, I want to let the STA TV network completely crush SHO!"
Of course, he only said part of it.
Write a movie script, what to write?
In the future, Hollywood will be the world of big IPs, and all the blockbusters will be shooting sequels.
So much so that the production team dedicated to original themes changed careers one after another and went to the TV field, and then a series of wonderful and good-looking classic American dramas appeared.
What are those best-selling movie series?
Marvel Comics and DC Comics are the two trump cards, Lucasfilm's "Star Wars" series, which is unbeatable, MGM's "007" series, which has endured for a century, and "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings" adaptations, which have created myths.
Then, there is the "Transformers" series, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, the "Fast and Furious" series, the "Jurassic Park" series, the "Mission Impossible" series, the "Spy Shadows" series, and the "National Treasure" series......
A large part of it has already been started, and the three major series of "Jurassic Park", "Fast and Furious", and "Spy" are the gold-attracting aces of Universal Pictures.
As long as Don buys Universal Pictures, he will naturally get it.
Even "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", Donn has adjusted the structure and setting of the script to make it possible for the film to develop a sequel.
The male protagonist is an American and the female protagonist is French, and after using a movie to uncover the secret of each other's killer identities, it has also made enough foreshadowing for the sequel, so that the husband and wife can work together to fight against a more powerful transnational criminal syndicate.
What else?
"Mission Impossible" doesn't need to be thought about, and the copyright of the "Lord of the Rings" series is even more fantastical.
Twilight and The Hunger Games?
These are all adaptations, and Don En doesn't dare to start easily.
In case the author is now in the process of conceiving and creating, Tang En may be involved in an infringement dispute, and it is not too late to start it after the listing.
It can be said that in the next 20 years, more than 90% of Hollywood's major IPs that can show their prestige in the box office market have been pocketed by Donn, and he has no need to write commercial film scripts.
As for the literary films that won the awards......
The risk is too great to touch!
The scripts of many literary films have been deposited for decades, and the movies that were released 10 years later may have registered the script 10 years ago.
If Don wants to move this cake, he must be cautious and careful, and do his homework in the early stage, otherwise once he gets into a copyright lawsuit, not to mention a huge punitive fine, the blow to his personal reputation will be fatal.
For example, "Black Swan", released in 2010, is the third installment of director Darren Aronofsky's trilogy series, and was registered with the Screenwriters' Guild last year. and has made an appointment with his alumnus Natalie Portman to collaborate on this project in the future;
For example, "Lincoln" released in 2012, the script appeared only a year later than "Schindler's List", and Steven Spielberg also made an appointment with Liam Neeson to work together for a second time to let him play this role;
For example, the initial script of "Dallas Buyers Club", released in 2013, was completed after the death of the protagonist Ron Woodruff in 1992......
The list goes on.
Therefore, it is very simple for Tang En to copy commercial films, because most commercial films are time-sensitive, and they are big IPs, and the copyright is easy to control.
But literary films are too complicated, unless it is a stable adaptation copyright like "All the Time" and "Chicago", you must not reach out indiscriminately.
In comparison, American dramas are too simple, you can almost copy and use them casually!
Because the most elite talents are in the film industry, an excellent idea will not have the opportunity to be sealed at all, and the TV station will definitely rush to shoot it immediately.
The reason why so many classic American dramas appeared later was because of the IP and sequels in the film market, and the original teams of many movies had no room to survive, so they could only run the TV industry to engage in originality.
Even Jonathan Nolan left the film industry and went to HBO to make a "Westworld".
It's only 2001, so naturally there are no hidden dangers in this regard.
It's a time difference.
It just happens to be an excellent time to buy the bottom!
Tang En has already thought about it, whether he shoots or not, he will first get the script out, and then register it, and then occupy the quota.
Go someone else's way and leave others with no way out!
Especially some excellent American dramas launched by Shotime TV.
Don't even think about running away!
Penelope Cruz looked curiously at the computer screen and asked, "What kind of TV series is this?
"This is a drama broadcast by a professional station, and the scale must be large, called "Single Drug Mom". Don smiled, looking at the outline that had been typed out on the computer, the corners of his mouth hooked a little cold.
Now he is indeed not Lei Shidong's opponent, but he has the foresight to come to SHO!
SHO has only started to invest in and produce American dramas by himself since 2004, and the first shot was "Single Drug Mom".
Although there is a gap with many classic HBO dramas, as a small and medium-budget urban black comedy, it is also a good choice to broadcast it during working hours to bring relaxation and laughter to the audience.
It is impossible for every drama to be a big scene and a big production.
After completing this "Single Drug Mom", Tang En still has several scripts such as "Bloodthirsty Forensics", "Gay and Mortal", "California Love", "Nurse Jack", "If There Is Tomorrow" and so on.
Of course, it is impossible for him to know the specific content of each drama, but this does not matter at all, what matters is creativity and ideas!
As long as the general plot is understood and the protagonist's character is determined, it is enough.
Grab the idea and register it first, and when it comes to filming later, you can let the screenwriters slowly conceive the specific plot.
Of course, since it's a bottom-copy, it's not just SHO.
This is just the beginning.
Don will hurry up and grab more ideas!
HBO, AMC, SHO, CBS, ABC, FOX, BBC, Amazon, Hulu...... But whenever Tang En has an impression, he will not let go of any of them!
Now, it's the golden age of American dramas! ()
