The whole of North America has become a sensation, Chaos Pictures, a small company without any financial involvement, without any connections, is really self-made, but it has fought its way out in Hollywood controlled by Wall Street, this is not the distant twenties, 10,000 dollars plus a camera can pull up a straw team, and open up a world in Hollywood, this is the 21st century, the film industry has developed and matured in the 21st century. Even though DreamWorks has strong network support, and even if Nu Skin Pictures has rich copyright resources to reserve works, they have not been able to break the strong blockade www.biquge.info of the capital chain, one was forced to split, the other was forced to acquire, after all, they still failed to continue the name of "Hollywood Eight", and now Hollywood is still the "Big Six", the "Big Six" that cannot be shaken and no one can challenge.

However, Chaos Pictures did it - leaving aside the future development, at the moment in 2006, Chaos Pictures did it, and without any support and help, it single-handedly climbed to the top of the pyramid and became one of the top players. Especially in the past year, Chaos Pictures has fled everywhere and is precarious under the blockade of Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures, and it can't even find breathing space, but Chaos Pictures still found a way to survive, not only escaped, but also collided with Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures, becoming a witness to the strong rise of Chaos Pictures.

Looking back on the summer of 2006, Warner Bros. collapsed, the troika was wiped out, and the heavy losses caused internal and external troubles, Barry Meyer's absolute power within the company encountered a serious challenge, and if he was not careful, he could become the next Michael Esner; Sony Pictures mantis arm as a car, except for the "Da Vinci Code" in the overall downturn, although the loss is not as exaggerated as Warner Bros., but every work has a small loss, Michael Layton's self-made cleverness but self-inflicted consequences, the momentum of the strong rise in the past two years ushered in a head-on drink, which is serious for Sony, which is determined to dominate Hollywood; Disney even broke his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" was suppressed so that he had no temper at all, all the records achieved the glory of the opponent, and for their own interests, they had to stand on the opposite side of Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures, treacherously, and took the initiative to cool down and extinguish the controversy of "Fury Road", and what was even more depressing was that they also had to pay Lance remuneration - 2% of the dividends in the script of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" belonged to Lance.

In the confrontation with the frontal bayonet, Chaos Pictures actually made Warner Bros., Sony Pictures, and Disney all suffer, such a feat is enough to make it an upstart, and the name of "Hollywood's seventh player" is well deserved.

Now all the media are hotly discussing, what are the advantages and disadvantages of Chaos Pictures compared to DreamWorks, DreamWorks has persisted for nearly ten years after its strong rise, and it is still unsustainable after all, how long can Chaos Pictures last? Was this a flash in the pan, or did it really change the Hollywood landscape?

In fact, the so-called Hollywood pattern is not so complicated, and after simplifying the complex situation, it is the degree of abundant funds, why can the six major Hollywood film companies dominate the entire market? To put it simply, if ten works fail, as long as one work succeeds, they can continue to dominate because they have Wall Street funding behind them, allowing them to make mistakes, allowing them to experiment, and allowing them to fail.

However, independent film companies do not.

For example, Warner Bros. has smashed the pot in the three works of this summer, and preliminary statistics show that these three works will cause them a loss of about 350 million to 400 million, of course, the three works - especially "Superman Returns" - can also recover some costs in the market periphery, video tape rental, TV station on-demand, etc., but considering that the market feedback of the three works is unsatisfactory, the profits in this area are bound to be limited. With a loss of about 350 million to 400 million, even if they are as wealthy as Warner Bros., it is a pain in the flesh, not to mention that they have to face the menacing upward momentum of Sony Pictures. But Warner Bros. will still not break their bones, and they are bound to make a comeback next summer.

Comparatively speaking, DreamWorks did not have such good fortune. In 2003 alone, for example, DreamWorks' "Cat and Mouse Game" earned 350 million worldwide and made a box office profit of about 90 million, but works such as "Oolong Führer", "Legend of Sinbad Seven Seas" and "Snake Taibao" made them lose nearly 70 million. At that time, DreamWorks also had to allocate funds to the production of "Shrek 2", "Madagascar" and other works, and they were completely unable to make ends meet, and eventually fell into such a vicious circle, maybe they could shoot a profitable work, but they had to face the risk of six or seven works failing.

This gap in "failure tolerance" has widened the gap between large studios and medium-sized studios in the context of the blockbuster era. Maybe the first nine works of the big studios failed, and the tenth work happened to be "Pirates of the Caribbean", then they could make a lot of money, Warner Bros. failed miserably this summer, but with the "Harry Potter" series, they were invincible, and then the "Harry Potter" series ended, and Warner Bros. suddenly fell in momentum, and was overtaken by Disney, which held the Marvel Universe and the "Star Wars" universe; But for independent film companies, one of the three works must be successful in order to ensure that they can continue to move forward, otherwise they can only continue to spin around small productions with a cost of less than 30 million, and never find a breakthrough opportunity.

The reason why Chaos Pictures was able to rise strongly in just three years and become a strong candidate for Seventh Player was not because of their strong DreamWorks connections, but because of their incredible 100% success rate. Especially after the establishment of the distribution department of Chaos Pictures, the three works of "Sin City", "Hard Candy", and "Fury Road" are almost a step by step leap and unstoppable.

Although the first work "Queen" created by Chaos Pictures is about to debut in the second half of the year, everyone clearly knows that the biggest contributor to the rise of Chaos Pictures is still Lance.

It's hard to imagine what the future of this talented director will reach, with an unprecedented number of bullets that bring his talent and abilities to the fullest, and as long as he can continue to create great works, then Chaos Pictures' upward momentum will not stop. Now, the question is: where exactly does Lance end?

Although he is not yet thirty-four years old, Lance has already received numerous accolades, and his talents as a screenwriter and actor have received awards, and it is surprising that Lance has returned empty-handed in the director's position, but people firmly believe that this embarrassment will not last long, whether it is the feat of being nominated for Best Director at the Oscar for three consecutive years, or the acclaim that the Crime Trilogy has won on the European continent - rumor has it that this year's Venice Film Festival intends to open a special section to show Lance's Crime trilogy continuously, This is completely master-level treatment, only those film giants who have been in the film industry for many years can win such recognition from the three major European film festivals, but now Reims has entered the hall of masters, these are direct proof of Reims's directorial talent. What's more, on the road of groping for business and art, Reims has been several positions ahead.

A "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", Lance will earn four million as a screenwriter, which has become one of the top screenwriters in Hollywood, no one can deny that the script written by Lance is indeed excellent, in the case of expanding the pattern, as much as possible to ensure that the plot is compact and rich, and the vivid characters are widely acclaimed; A "Fury Road", Chaos Pictures has reaped a profit of 500 million, such a feat, even compared to the "Titanic" of the year, it is not inferior - after all, the profits of this work will be shared by the two companies, and what is even more terrifying is that after entering the videotape market, Chaos Pictures' peripheral income will continue to rise, relying on this work alone, Chaos Pictures' investment in the next three years will not have to worry.

At the same time, Chaos Pictures is not stupidly satisfied with this, the publicity period of "Fury Road" is still continuing, and the news about "Iron Man" is already boiling. Not to mention the authenticity of the relevant news, at least it can be seen that Chaos Pictures is not satisfied with the success of "Fury Road", they are still continuing to develop and innovate step by step, and this idea itself has made Chaos Pictures lead countless small and medium-sized film companies.

So, Chaos Pictures is indeed changing the landscape of Hollywood, and it will continue to be, and Hollywood's new seventh player may really be able to set off a wave of earth-shaking waves.

This also makes all industry insiders involuntarily focus on Chaos Pictures, some people think that its failure is sooner or later, without the support of Wall Street funds, Chaos Pictures is too risky, just like DreamWorks' dependence on Steven Spielberg, it is unrealistic to rely on Lance alone to support the entire company; Some people think that Lance is a smart man, and he will choose a suitable time to bring in Wall Street funds to really make Chaos Pictures qualified to be a leader; Some people think that Chaos Pictures is just a shooting star, and the success of "Fury Road" is too special to be replicated, and the same is true of Chaos Pictures' other two independently released works, "Sin City" and "Hard Candy", which doomed Chaos Pictures to be difficult to get out of the shackles......

Boiling over, the whole Hollywood is talking about the birth of Chaos Pictures, and even the social and economic pages of major newspapers and magazines can't help but set their eyes on the new "seventh player", is it really time for Hollywood to change?

In the hot summer of 2007, Chaos Pictures was born and crowned the title of seventh player, and the chess pieces finally became chess players, but how will this game of chess continue? (To be continued.) )
