Chapter 553: What is the new film going to make?

"Sir, I think it's a bit risky to quit Gantz3 right now, or Transformers, I can put it another way, that is, at least Gantz3 will have to wait a while, and we can even release Transformers first. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Oh, Liu, why is that?"

"The reason is simple, the appetite of movie fans needs to be hung up, and if a movie like this is launched right now, it will give them a ...... Look, something like this is coming at any time. Well, they won't cherish it. ”

"This ...... Does that really make sense?"

"Sir, believe me, of course it makes sense, of course. ”

"It seems so, then...... When are we going to release these two films?"

"You'll have to wait at least two years, right? Sir, you know, according to my efficiency, these two films should be made from next year, so that there will be enough time. ”

"Okay, I believe you, we've already won the rights to that "Transformers", so everything will be easy. ”

Spielberg still believes in Liu Chao very much, and he really listens to the advice.

In fact...... It's normal, because the films that Liu Chao cooperated with DreamWorks were all very successful.

At the moment, DreamWorks seems to have a certain problem in making money, and the films they make always look like they don't have high returns, let's just say that the previous "War of the Worlds", which was pinned on high hopes, you know, this movie invited Tom Tom to come, and the whole cost is very high.

Spielberg personally directed, and actually went through a long production process, but the box office ......

It's just enough for a cost.

In fact, many people don't understand the box office of Hollywood movies.

In North America, it is relatively simple, that is, to negotiate with the cinema company for a share, or some cinema companies to buy out directly, that is, to buy copies directly. Probably there are just two of them, it should be said, there is not much difference between these two, because the American film industry is very mature, and it is basically difficult to have a case of failure in box office estimates.

The most unsuccessful estimate was "Titanic", Twentieth Century Fox actually chose to produce this movie with Paramount, which made them a lot less money. The reason is actually that the investment in this film was too big, it took too long, and the risk was too high, everyone knew that this would be a good film, but the risk was a little unaffordable.

To put it bluntly, it is a blockbuster, a successful high-grossing film, and it is difficult for the film company to make a lot of money.

For this "War of the Worlds", the investment is 130 million US dollars, while the box office in North America is only 2. A little more than 100 million, which is simply ......

Lose money!

Although, from a global point of view, the total box office of this movie is nearly 500 million American knives, but the share of the overseas market is not high. Let's just say that in our Chinese market, Hollywood movies are now only about ten points.

Therefore, the domestic box office was simply given to Liu Chao, let's count it as a co-production, if it is a full-blooded Hollywood movie, it won't be much money at all.

Then, with a simple calculation, it is clear that this "War of the Worlds" may sound like a high total box office, but the real money does not make much.

In fact, this has something to do with some of the film export policies of the United States.

On the American side, for some reasons, Hollywood is super powerful, so they want to engage in this kind of output, just like agricultural products, the price is cheap, do you want to?

Hollywood movies are not only attractively priced, but also of high quality.

Under such a policy, Hollywood blockbusters are naturally difficult to make a lot of money overseas, although this money is also quite good, which is equivalent to an additional subsidy.

Over the years, many of DreamWorks' works have been applauded, and even the box office is very good, but it is difficult to make money, one is too costly, and the other is such a policy. Of course, DreamWorks is still making money now, especially their animation company, animation is really profitable.

So in this way, I attach more importance to Liu Chao, this guy is really good, and everyone's cooperation in the past few times is very good.

So, Liu Chao doesn't want to shoot "Gantz3" or "Transformers" right away, is it really because he wants to lose the appetite of fans as he said?

Of course not!

Just now, our car factory has just started to do it, this Transformers or something?

Isn't the publicity effect gone?

Therefore, if you can delay, you must drag it a little more.

Liu Chao is indeed a little selfish, but his selfishness is also seamless, at least in Spielberg's opinion, there is no problem at all, after all, the production time of a Hollywood blockbuster is very long, usually two to three years, anyway.

In fact, those who know the industry also understand that the time for shooting is relatively small now, but the time for post-production is very long.

However, Liu Chao has a magic weapon here, he has Wang Tian's stunt production team, and so on, it is much faster than Hollywood, maybe the quality is slightly worse, but it is only slightly worse.

At this time, it has not yet reached the era of high-definition, and there is no IMAX technology, so it can be mixed for the time being.

So, now that he Liu Chao is not making blockbusters, what kind of film is he going to make?

It should be said that he is still very busy, and the career of movies will be put aside for a while, but someone came to find him, and it made Liu Chao a little difficult to refuse.

"Ah Chao, this film is very good, look at it, the profound connotation in it, how good. Moreover, I'm going to play the big bad guy this time. ”

"Brother Hua, you're not like this, are you? Your image, accumulated over the years, is it really going to be broken this time?"

"It's nothing, I've really figured it out, I'm willing to self-destruct my image for the sake of our society. ”

"This ......"

"Ah Chao, what else do you have to hesitate about?"

"I do have some ......"

"How about it? Don't you want to film with you, Brother Hua and me?"

"No, not really. ”

"That's the end of it. ”

"This ...... I'm ......."

"Don't talk too much, or the love will be gone!"

With whom is this?

Of course, it's Andy, Liang Zai Hua came to him Liu Chao to film, but why does Liu Chao have such an attitude?

It's very simple, because this drama is nothing else, it's the "Disciple"!

What is the movie "Disciple" about?

In fact, it is still a story related to undercover, but this story is done within an organization that sells du, and this movie is actually really good, the director is still Er Dongsheng, although this guy usually looks down on Liu Chao, but Liu Chao doesn't look down on him either, but this does not delay the cooperation between the two.

But...... There is also a Jingchu girl in this movie!

Jingchu's sister is Liu Chao's most troublesome, but ...... It's not a problem of the family, but Jing Chu plays the Xiaofen, and Liu Chao plays the undercover agent, that is to say......

There's a thrilling X drama!
