Chapter 1126 and two series

"V for Vendetta" does not have an original comic in this world.

Jiang Xia belongs to the original author.

The original "V Vendendtta" comic, because it was created in the 80s, the last timeline set was 1997, and when the film was made, the time was postponed to 2020.

When Jiang Xia was creating, he also extended the time back twenty years.

The heroine and the actor didn't have any idea at all, and at that time, they just signed the contract and handed over the script to 20th Century Fox, and they began casting.

The reason why Qianqiu Pictures and Hengyu Pictures are not yet able to shoot world-class comprehensive films alone is because the casting channels cannot be rolled out.

Hollywood giants have spent a century laying channels all over the world, which is not something that Qianqiu Pictures and Hengyu Pictures can catch up with in a short period of time.

Jiang Xia said at the beginning that he would borrow Paramount's casting channel to cast, and he was going to choose a young actor from "Harry Potter" at that time.

In the end, the cooperation with Paramount is indeed the "Harry Potter" series.

Jiang Xia made a request, that is, every actor must be British, and at the same time, he must audition in person.

Paramount agreed.

In terms of investment funds, Qianqiu Pictures and Paramount have both invested, of which Paramount accounts for the majority, after all, Qianqiu Pictures has been put into more than one billion funds by the "Matrix" trilogy, and it can't draw so much money for a while, so it can only reduce the investment in the first two parts.

Jiang Xia didn't ask for personal expenses, whether it was copyright fees, adaptation fees, or even director fees, he asked for a box office share.

As a person who has experienced the power of "Harry Potter", the world's number one IP, he must be stupid if he wants to fix money.

In addition to "V for Vendetta" is beginning to prepare, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is also being prepared, and the latter has a much longer preparation period in comparison.

"V Vendtle" can be filmed on the streets of London, and the shooting is all live-action.

"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is not good, just a Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry can make the special effects team work for a long time, and even Hengyu Group has intervened, preparing to buy a piece of land in the United Kingdom and build Hogwarts one to one.

Now Cheng Xin is following up on this project, if she can negotiate, then she must negotiate with the movie, invite the top designers to design, and consult Jiang Xia, the original author, for advice.

The operation of the whole process is very complicated, and it really took a while for "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" to be filmed.

In addition to "Harry Potter", Jiang Xia also prepared another series, which was a series he promised to Natalie a long time ago - the "Resident Evil" series.

The most successful series of game adaptations, for Jiang Xia, is definitely the "Resident Evil" series.

At least before Jiangxia crossed over, I had never seen a game adaptation movie that could exceed the influence of the "Resident Evil" series.

It was in "Resident Evil" that zombies became well-known, and there were a series of zombie-themed movies later.

The cost of each "Resident Evil" is not too high, and the highest cost is only $65 million for the fifth part, but each one has made money, and the lowest box office was $102 million in 2002.

Jiang Xia said that it was the most successful adaptation, not that it was the highest box office.

In terms of box office alone, one "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part II)" can kill all six of its films in seconds.

To say that it is successful, one is that it really did not make the company lose money, and the other is that it really has a lot of influence.

The birth of zombies is such a surprising theme, only those who have experienced the birth of the "Resident Evil" game understand that those who have not played the game only know the horror of this creature when the first part of "Resident Evil" was in 2002.

Jiang Xia's film series with 20th Century Fox is the "Resident Evil" series, which is different from the "Harry Potter" series, in the cooperation with 20th Century Fox, Qianqiu Pictures dominates.

The total investment of the six "Resident Evil" is about 300 million, which is barely the same as one "Falling 6".

The main reason for keeping such a low investment is that there are few special effects shots.

The entire "Resident Evil" series was punched and kicked by the heroine, not supported by special effects.

The "Harry Potter" series is different, it all relies on special effects to support it, and the investment cannot be small.

Qianqiu Pictures can't take the big investment in "Harry Potter" for the time being, but "Resident Evil" is no problem, and it can definitely get it.

The contract with Paramount was signed for the first two parts, and then it was to be followed by the follow-up.

The contract with 20th Century Fox also signed a "V Vendtta" and a "Resident Evil 1".

In a place like Hollywood, where capital is king, there is no profit and no further signing.

Qianqiu Pictures also needs time to breathe a sigh of relief, eliminate the impact of "The Matrix", fill up the funds, and continue to account for the majority of subsequent investments.

The plan for the two series and "V Word Vendetta" was all thought up by Jiang Xia, and the cooperation method of the two series was also thought up by Jiang Xia.

He knows the results and results of the two series and is quite confident.

In the absence of the original game, the attraction of the first part of "Resident Evil" must be good, and the freshness of zombies can support a certain box office.

"V-Word Vendetta" is listed separately by Jiang Xia, and it is the free time of the preparation period of the other two series, so I will shoot one easily.

At the same time, the metaphors in this movie are also what he wants to express.

The failure of "The Matrix" really angered Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia's temperament can't help but do something, and when he made this movie, he was in danger of being banned.

A foreigner can still make such a movie, but when he makes such a movie, the meaning is too obvious, and he is simply blocking his own way.

That's why Jiang Xia said that he wouldn't come back for ten years.

Ten years is just a false word, and the real year to come back is when Jiang Ming goes back to preside over the overall situation. If Jiang Ming doesn't go back, he can't think about going back to make movies.

Besides, neither of the two major series can be filmed in ten years.

Jiang Xia, who arrived in the UK, bought a house in London and lived here, and will live here for a long time in the future, filming "V Venddetta" and "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone".

As for the filming of "Resident Evil", Jiang Xia's planned place is in the United States, but the interior scenery is ready to be filmed in the United Kingdom, so as not to fly back and forth.

The two major series, except for the "Harry Potter" series revealed by Jiang Xia, the other series only knows that the heroine is Natalie, and nothing else is known.

Finally, in December, 20th Century Fox and Qianqiu Pictures jointly released stills from Jiang Xia's new movie, "V Vendtta", announcing that the new movie officially began shooting.
