Chapter 914: Fantastic Four?
Li Sheng and Fox made an appointment the next morning.
Early the next morning, Li Sheng got up, washed up, ate a little unappetizing breakfast, and set off for Fox with Yang Mengyuan.
Seriously, at this time, Li Sheng was also quite curious, what kind of film would think of using a Chinese to shoot.
When Li Sheng and Yang Mengyuan arrived downstairs at Fox, the front desk lady was already waiting there.
"Hello Mr. Li, please come with me, Mr. Owen has already informed me to take you up. ”
Li Sheng smiled and nodded, quite satisfied.
Regardless of whether this thing is successful or not, if you don't say anything else, you will not be picky about this attitude of others, which makes you feel that you are respected, and it is beautiful.
The front desk lady has been leading the way, she has been leading Li Sheng and Yang Mengyuan to the front of a conference room, knocked lightly on the door, and only after getting a positive answer did she open the door.
"Mr. Lee, please. ”
Li Sheng nodded and walked in first, and Yang Mengyuan followed behind him.
After he entered, he immediately observed the situation in the house.
There were four people in the room, an old man and three middle-aged people.
After seeing Li Sheng arrive, all four stood up, and one of them walked over.
"Hello, Mr. Li, I'm Owen, and I'm in charge of this project. ”
Li Sheng smiled and nodded, "Hello, it's an honor to receive your invitation." ”
The Yankees are also very face-saving, Li Sheng praised them, and immediately they followed Li Sheng.
"Mr. Li used 20 million to win more than 1 billion box office in China, more than 50 times the income, this is really amazing!"
Li Sheng smiled and nodded, "Thank you for the compliment!" ’
Americans don't pay attention to modesty, the strong are always strong.
After Owen exchanged a few words with him, he led him over and introduced Li Sheng.
"Let me introduce you to you. ”
"This one, Li, a talented filmmaker, has firmly held the box office record of Chinese films in just three years since his debut, and he is also the winner of Best Actor in San Sebastian and Berlin. ”
Li Sheng nodded at the remaining three, "Hello!"
Owen went on to introduce, "Lee, this one, the father of heroes, Stan Lee, 90% of the superheroes are from the hands of the old man, speaking of which, you all have a Lee, fate!"
Li Sheng hurriedly greeted Stan Li with a smile, "Hello......"
Stan Lee smiled and nodded, he didn't say anything, old man, it's understandable that he doesn't talk much.
But Li Sheng heard something else from Owen's words.
Superhero ????
Fox's superheroes are...... X-Men?
Not to mention that when Li Sheng's thoughts were flying, Owen continued to introduce him.
"This one, Kevin, Kevin Feige, the producer of Marvel. ”
Li Sheng nodded and shook his hand.
"This one, Mark, Mark Foster, is the screenwriter of this play. ”
Li Sheng shook his hand again, and this was the end of the introduction.
However, Li Sheng noticed that the screenwriter's attitude towards himself didn't seem to be very cold.
After the introduction, several people sat down together.
Owen handed over a document, "Li, let's choose a director, but we also have to go through the process somewhat." ”
"You take a look at this scene, and then give us an analysis and explain how to shoot it!"
"We rely on this to determine if you have what it takes to direct the play. ”
Li Sheng nodded, reached out and took the piece of paper, he glanced at it roughly, it was a little big.
He handed the paper to Yang Mengyuan, "Translate it for me." ”
Yang Mengyuan nodded when he heard this, took it, roughly scanned it, and began to explain it to Li Sheng.
"Sue said, Johnny, don't tease Ben, and Li De, why don't you care about them......"
"Li De said, we are all in a sensitive period now, and I will definitely find a way to solve our situation!"
Ben said, "Then you must hurry up, I've had enough of this stone look!"
……
Li Sheng listened to Yang Mengyuan's translation, and when he listened to it, he realized that something was wrong.
Sue, Li De, Johnny, Ben, these are four people, Ben said he was from Shantou?
Fantastic Four?
It's not the X-Men, Li Sheng is faintly disappointed.
After all, although the Fantastic Four is also a good superhero movie, this drama has average results and can be regarded as Marvel's earliest stepping stone.
However, disappointment is disappointment, what should be done, Li Sheng is not ambiguous at all.
The Fantastic Four in his memory was already very vague, and he didn't impress Li Sheng too much.
If there must be, it's just Jessica Alba's beautiful figure, and Chris Evans, who took off the Fantastic Four suit and then became Captain America.
After listening to Yang Mengyuan's translation, Li Sheng thought about it for a while and explained it according to his own understanding.
When he was explaining, the person also stood up, gesturing while talking, and Yang Mengyuan translated for him.
There are a lot of things written on this piece of paper, but in fact, there are not many scenes, just one of the scenes.
It doesn't involve anything too profound, it's more about portraying the image of a few people.
Li Sheng also understood what they meant by doing this, after all, the living habits and many aspects of Chinese and Americans are not the same.
After all, North America is the first market they really need, and the box office of Chinese movies is second.
You can't have it both ways, and if you want to have one or the other, it's North America.
What they want to see now is whether Li Sheng, as a Chinese, can create an authentic American.
After all, this is a superhero, and superheroes are the spiritual sustenance of Americans.
The short history has left Americans with no stories and myths of their own, and can only create superheroes one by one to fill their gaps.
To put it bluntly, the status of superheroes in the United States is no less than the status of myths in the hearts of Chinese.
……
Getting back to the point, Li Sheng returned to his seat after finishing speaking.
He had just seen that the screenwriter didn't like him, and he was still the same after he finished speaking, and that Owen was also embarrassed.
Stan Lee showed an interested look, while Kevin Feige was expressionless, keeping his head down and not knowing what he was thinking.
The four of them got together to discuss, and in front of Li Sheng, they didn't shy away from it.
However, Li Sheng was polite and did not listen to it.
After a while, the discussion was completed.
Stan Lee stood up with a smile on his face, walked over, and announced the results.
"Hello Li, we discussed it for a while......"
