Chapter 364: The Wolf Is Coming!

"Justin, are you aiming for an Academy Award?"

"Telling the story of a ballet dancer, such a fantasy drama is obviously a literary film.

Everyone knows that literary films are more likely to be popular with academics, but they are usually very different from commercial blockbusters in the market.

Some even have a bad public reputation, why do you want to shoot this "Black Swan" for the Oscars the following year?"

"Justin, did you give up your status as a blockbuster director to get the Oscar recognition? Have you ever thought that "Black Swan" is not easy?"

"Justin, if you're for the Oscars, why don't you try other categories, it's not that only literary films can get favored, it's that you don't have confidence in other genres?"

"The Lord of the Rings", "Life is Beautiful", "Titanic" and a series of films tell us that not only literary films can get the Oscars, Justin, what is your choice for this time? ”

……

Listening to the questions one by one, looking at the pairs of eyes staring at him, Chen Tian was not surprised at all.

He was well aware of the emergence of such a situation.

It would be an accident if it didn't appear, after all, he gave the public the impression of a Justin miracle, more precisely a movie box office miracle.

Whether it is a big cost or a small cost, it has been a huge success at the box office, and it has achieved something that most directors may not be able to achieve in a lifetime.

Each film has been a good box office success, and so far no film directed by himself has grossed less than $100 million.

The speed of filming and the supremacy of the box office are the biggest impression that Chen Tian has made to the world in the past less than two years.

However, now Chen Tian is going to switch to literary films. The box office of literary films has always been difficult to high.

This is obviously very different from the Chen Tian in their cognition. And the Oscars are not only the world of literary films.

It's just that the Oscars are not only available for literary films. Many high-grossing films have won Oscars.

Although Chen Tian has not tried this genre, from the control of emotions shown in "Heartbeat", no one doubts that Chen Tian may compete for the Oscar with a film with emotions as the main line.

But "Black Swan" ......

They really can't imagine what kind of story this will be, even if none of Chen Tian's screenwriting works have a bad reputation since their debut.

"It seems that there are a lot of questions that people have, but there are not many that I can tell you.

First, I'm confident in the story.

Second, I have a good actor, and Natalie's appearance may somewhat overlook her acting prowess. I believe she can handle the characters in the film very well and achieve the one I want.

Third, I had plenty of time to prepare, and I was more mature than before.

Fourth, awards are not the only goal I want to pursue, making a good movie is what I want.

Fifth, the investment for this film will be the second largest in my directorial career, and it will not be less than $50 million. ”

Chen Tian's five points, if the first three points are just programmatic and formulaic answers, the fourth point is Chen Tian's own military order. Then the fifth point is undoubtedly the most shocking for them.

It's a film that sounds like it's just about a ballet dancer, and it's Natalie Portman who has invested $50 million.

You must know that Chen Tian's directorial career is in addition to investing hundreds of millions of dollars in "League of Assassins", which is now being filmed. The second most is "The Queen Wears Prada", which will be released this summer, and "The Queen Wears Prada" has only invested less than $40 million.

If it is for other directors, the investment of 50 million may not be nothing.

After all, under the entire Hollywood film industry system, an investment of $30 or 50 million for a normal film is the norm.

But this director is not another director, but Chen Tian, a director who can have a super return on investment of more than 100 million dollars at the North American box office of 100 million dollars, or even 10,000 dollars.

Since he can make a film at a cost of 50 million US dollars, whether it is word-of-mouth or not, it at least shows that Chen Tian attaches great importance to the film.

And according to Chen Tian's previous directing habits, they don't believe that there is no pursuit of the box office.

However, such a story made the on-site reporters unable to imagine how to meet the expectations of the box office, which couldn't help but make them not optimistic about "Black Swan", and looked forward to whether this Justin miracle would continue.

An hour later, Chen Tian's press conference, which held countless media outlets, finally ended.

Every reporter who came to the scene showed an excited expression, but they were a little dissatisfied with the excitement, because in their opinion, there were still many things worth digging into, but unfortunately Chen Tian did not give them this opportunity.

"Yahoo Entertainment" quickly updated the headline of the website, and the headline was "Justin's ambition is coming, and he will join hands with Natalie for the second time, pointing to the Oscar" - Justin officially revealed his next directing plan at the Hong Kong press conference, and will work with Natalie Portman for the second time to shoot the fantasy drama "Black Swan", obviously the box office victory can no longer satisfy Justin Chen, and Justin has repeatedly stated that he wants to win the Oscar next year.

The headline on the official website of "Hollywood Reporter" directly made a special feature of Chen Tian's Hong Kong press conference within half an hour.

The thematic picture is a picture of Chen Tian clenching his fist when he was promoting "Raid" in New York, which shows that Chen Tian is extremely confident.

"Justin is really here"!

"Slowing down is even more terrifying, Justin declares war on the Oscars"!

"Careerist Justin Crazy Launch"!

……

Various media reported on Chen Tian's Hong Kong press conference as soon as possible, and as a gossip media, "TMZ" took another eye-catching approach according to the content of the press conference "Scarlett PK Natalie, 3VS2, but the number is not the only one".

The article said: "Justin Chan Hong Kong officially announced his and Miramax's next plans at the press conference, and he and his wife Scarlett Johansson will perform "The Moon" and "500 Days with Shamo", which will be the second and third collaboration between the husband and wife. For women all over the world who want to become famous, Scarlett Johansson is enough to make them jealous.

However, Justin announced at the press conference that he would spend a lot of money to shoot an Olympic blockbuster, and would join hands with Star Wars Queen Natalie Portman for the second time, this is the second time the two have collaborated on the film, if you count "Runningman", it seems that the number of films is not superior to Natalie......"

I have to say that as soon as the gossip giant "TMZ" came out, Chen Tian still caused a lot of criticism, but the entire Hollywood industry is undoubtedly more worried about Chen Tian and Chen Tian's Miramax.

After all, Chen Tian in the past year and a half has only represented an individual, a representative of independent films, and for Hollywood, even if the films made are profitable, they cannot be shaken.

However, now Chen Tian is no longer fighting alone, but has a well-established and powerful group.

The Weinstein brothers, the Oscar super-promoters, have in the release of public relations.

Anime Pictures has acquired DreamWorks Animation Studios and has shown ambitious goals.

In terms of special effects, it has a strategic partnership with Peter Jackson's Weta Digital, and has also acquired two old special effects companies.

There are also two big killers in the publicity: Facebook and YouTube.

Capitalist, it owns the Oracle and Donald estate empires.

The most important thing is that Miramax has a strong team of directors led by Chen Tian in terms of directing, and one Chen Tian is enough to make the entire Hollywood movie envious.

And also has a high-quality director of horror movies like Wen Ziren, not to mention getting Guy Ritchie, who has directed Batman Christopher Nolan.

Not to mention that Chen Tian's ability to create box office has made the entire Hollywood industry envious, jealous and hateful.

For the entire Hollywood film market, Miramax let out a wolf howl, telling everyone that Miramax was wolf. (To be continued......)
