Mark Miller couldn't help but blush, and coughed dryly: "Mr. Walker, you are the big boss......"

Tang En waved his hand, "The big boss has no reason to be an enemy." ”

Mark Miller nodded, hesitantly asking, "What do you need me to do?"

Well, you can talk about it slowly.

For Mark Miller, if he can quickly remake "Wanted" into a movie and release it smoothly, then his comic company can develop steadily.

That's all that matters!

The popularity of the "Wanted" comic gave Mark Miller the confidence to move from behind the scenes to the foreground.

If the movie is made, it will really be a big deal!

This is a movie that Donn Walker personally followed!

In the past seven or eight years, all the movies, TV series and variety shows that Don En has personally participated in have not failed!

So, as long as the price paid is not too big, Mark Miller is willing to accept it.

We must shoot "Wanted" as soon as possible!

Tang En looked at him with a cautious look, a little funny, shook his head and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm not a man-eating tiger, and I definitely won't mention some excessive conditions." ”

Mark Miller breathed a sigh of relief.

Tang En said: "Mark, I have always recognized your comic skills. For you this Miller World Comics Company...... I'm looking forward to it too. You must have seen that I am very interested in comic film and television programs. Whether it's the Avengers series of movies or the "The Walking Dead" TV series. ”

Mark Miller seemed to understand something, "so ......"

Don took over the conversation and said with a smile: "So, I hope to get the priority of the film and television adaptation of Miller's World Comics!"

Miller's main business strategy is to publish in partnership with a variety of different comic companies to gain greater benefits from the competition, rather than tying into a single partner.

Done's intention is clear, you can give the comics to different publishers for distribution. However, please retain the right to adapt the film and television work, at least ...... Priority should be reserved for New Global.

"This ......"

Mark Miller hesitated.

The coverage of Donn's words is too great.

This is the priority of film and television adaptations of all future comics.

Who knows if Miller World Comics will grow into a giant in the future?

Don smiled: "It's just priority, competition still exists." It will not harm your interests. ”

"Give me some time to think about it. ”

"If 'Wanted' is adapted into a movie, the production cost is ...... It will not be less than $80 million. ”

"This ......"

Mark Miller hesitated, and really couldn't decide right away.

Donn continued to bewitch: "In this movie, I will invite Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to act. ”

Angelina Jolie has complained to Donn many times that they haven't worked together yet.

That's an opportunity.

In a previous life, in 2005, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie collaborated on a "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", which was a box office hit after its release.

In this life, the project "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" was snatched up by Donn early, and Luc Besson was arranged as the director, with Mel Gibson and Sophie Marceau starring.

Even better!

If "Wanted" can be successfully established, even if this layer of cause and effect is returned, it will give Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie a chance.

Sure enough, hearing the names of these two Hollywood celebrities, Mark Miller's expression was shocked.

Donn went on to say, "Mark, as you know for sure, the preparation of a film is very tedious, and sometimes it can take a year or two. If you really want this movie to be released next year, then you can only make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise even if I am strongly promoting, I am afraid that the production will not be completed in such a short time. ”

Mark Miller took a deep breath, "Really...... Can you really get Pete and Jolie to star?"

Don said with a smile: "Pete's situation is still unclear, but Julie is definitely fine! If Pete has a schedule, or some other reason, he can't participate in this project, and the substitute actor will not be too bad." ”

"Will you direct the film yourself?"

"No!"

Tang En flatly denied it, and then shook his head funny, "Who is the director, does it matter? Mark, you have also participated in the production of some films, you must understand the truth of this." ”

Mark Miller sighed.

yes, does it really matter who the director is?

In the past few years, are there still fewer rookie directors who have become popular with Donn?

……

Everything is under control.

Priority is in hand!

Although there is no contract signed yet, does Mark Miller dare to lie to Donne?

The problem of the contract can be solved in a few days.

Reaching this agreement, Don's layout in the comic circle is considered a complete merit.

In previous lives, with the rise of Marvel Studios, the cinematic universe became a popular concept in Hollywood.

The main source of the concept came from comics!

Needless to say, Marvel and DC are two giants that are indisputable.

However, in the comic book circle, there are three "universes", which are not small.

One is the Hasbro cosmology dominated by "Transformers" launched by ID Comics, the other is the "Star Wars" cosmology dominated by Dark Horse Comics, and ...... It's Miller's cosmology.

In this life, Tang En took a stake in Hasbro early, and also grabbed the comic book adaptation rights of toys such as "Transformers" and "Special Forces" early and handed them over to Marvel for operation and distribution.

Although the sales are mediocre, it's not that no one is watching.

Now, Donn has mastered the "Miller World" again, and has one more hole card in his hand.

Later, he got George Lucas, acquired Lucasfilm, and controlled the copyright of "Star Wars......

Then among the five major comic universes, New Universal will be in charge of the fourth!

Only Warner's DC is still floating around.

Comics are IP!

With these intellectual property rights in hand, it is equivalent to building a rich and colorful infrastructure platform for the film and television content of New Globe Group.

The concept of "Miller's World Universe" is much less famous than Marvel, DC, Transformers, and Star Wars.

There are only three movies produced: "King Haibian", "Wanted", and "Ace Agent: Secret Service Academy", and the cosmology has not yet been built, and it is a movie made by different production companies.

However, don't forget, the content of movies and TV is not only movies, but also TV series!

Especially streaming, which is incompatible with mainstream movies and television.

In his previous life, Netflix once cooperated with Disney and obtained the rights to Marvel Studios movies, which can be played on streaming media. The annual rent paid to Disney is $300 million.

Later, the streaming business became more and more popular, and Disney couldn't stand it anymore, so it also wanted to engage in its own streaming media, so it broke off its cooperation with Netflix.

After losing the rights to Marvel, Netflix made a major move - spending $260 million to acquire Miller World Comics!

Ambitious to create an original "Miller world"!

Of course, in this life, because of Don, Netflix and Marvel are all family, and there is no possibility of fighting.

However, let's get the copyright in our hands first.

When the time is ripe in a few years, it is also a good choice to let Netflix eat Miller World Comics.

Competition!

The plate of the market is so big in total.

Give less to others, so that you can enjoy more food.

Many times, acquisitions are not for the sake of their own development, but to make competitors unable to survive!

After returning to the company, Donn immediately called Amy Pascal over and asked Universal Pictures to adapt and produce the movie "Wanted" as quickly as possible.

Angelina Jolie didn't have any problems, she didn't even go through the producer, she promised on the spot that she would definitely star.

Brad Pitt has no time to be distracted because of the schedule. He is busy with the pre-promotion of the epic blockbuster "Troy", and then, he has to prepare for the movie "Babel", and the time is incompatible.

Tang En was also vague, anyway, he had already given the opportunity, and the other party couldn't grasp it, so he couldn't be blamed. contacted Colin Farrell directly and asked him to play the leading role.

In the early years, Donn and Leonardo often attended various carnival parties, and Colin Farrell could often be seen at parties.

The two also have a good relationship.

This time I have the opportunity to give him a hand.

As for the film director...... Don will call in person.

"Here's your chance, sci-fi action movie, your favorite genre, do you want to try it?"

On the other end of the phone, it was J· J. Abrams.

As a talented filmmaker, he envied the life experiences of Christopher Nolan and Zack Snyder. At a young age, he was able to meet Bole like Don En, and got the opportunity to show his talent.

Although later, he also met Don and filmed three episodes of the big-budget American drama "Warcraft".

However, there is a big difference between American dramas and movies.

After receiving a call from Donn, it is conceivable that J· J. Abrams's inner excitement: "Sci-fi action movie? Yes...... Is it a big production?"

"The production budget should be around $85 million, which is enough for you to show your talent. Colin Farrell, Angelina Jolie, and Morgan Freeman have been connected, and the cast is strong enough. It depends on whether you have the confidence to adapt the comic book "Wanted". ”

The manga of "Wanted" is wonderful, and in fact, it doesn't need too many plot modifications.

In the original version of "Wanted", a few Hollywood rookies drummed up a successful work, invested $75 million, earned back $340 million at the box office, and was a great success.

It's just that the main creator is a newcomer after all, and he lacks experience, so he directly made a complete work from the "Wanted" series of comics, which has a lot of room for development.

Killed the heroine Angelina Jolie.

As a result, the popular and well-received "Wanted" has not been able to develop a sequel for a long time.

The heroine is dead, how can you shoot it?

Let the more experienced and capable J· J. Abrams was in charge of this project, which was undoubtedly the better outcome. (https:)
