Disney produced the "Mulan" cartoon in 98, and the response in China was mediocre, but it was a big hit at the box office in Europe and the United States, with a cost of 70 million and a global box office of more than 300 million US dollars, which is basically the box office income of Europe and the United States, which can be regarded as a successful cartoon.
In another time and space, ten years later, the movie "Mulan" starring Zhao Wei only achieved a box office of 110 million yuan with an investment of 250 million yuan, which is a failed investment with no return, although it was not released globally, 110 million is only the box office of the Asia-Pacific region, but even if it is released globally, audiences in Europe and the United States will not buy it.
The reason why Fang Yang will invest in a failed movie is due to several considerations: first, the current "Mulan" is directed by Zhao Wei, Fang Yang believes that her directing level is better than the actor's level, and at the same time, because of the big hit of "Alice in Wonderland", her value has doubled now, and her works will be willing to be bought by European and American audiences no matter how good or bad her works are, and the box office must not be bad.
Second, the movie "Mulan" has a strong Chinese color, and Zhao Wei will definitely release it globally after it is filmed, which can allow foreigners to know more about China, which is very beneficial to enhancing China's international popularity, which can also be regarded as Fang Yang's attempt, if he can, he wants to select some excellent domestic films to make Hollywood blockbusters, as long as he can do it without losing money, it will be considered a success.
After Zhao Wei chose to shoot "Mulan", Fang Yang did not give her the script directly, but decided to reprocess the script, this 09 version of the script starring Zhao Wei turned out to be a high box office, and it was not a perfect script, Fang Yang didn't see any problems after writing it, but this is easy to do, he hired the most famous screenwriter in China, Jin Caishen, to take a look at the script.
Jin Caishen is the most famous online writer in this era, and has written many popular online literature, but the income of online writers in this era is not high, even if it is the most famous, so Jin Caishen began to transform into a screenwriter, Fang Yang knew the news and invited him to Feiyang Entertainment at a high price.
After reading the script of "Mulan", Jin Caishen said: "This is a very ordinary script, it can't be written by you, right?" Although you are my boss, I speak very straight, please don't be offended. ”
Fang Yang's old face flushed, and said: "I didn't write it, it was a script handed over by a new screenwriter in the company, and I also think there are a lot of problems, but I don't have time to get it, so I called you here to change it." ”
Jin Caishen grinned and said: "It's no wonder, okay, I'll do this next, if it's a script made by a new screenwriter, it's okay, I'll take it back and fix it according to my ideas, and when the time comes, you will check it, in terms of scripts, you are an expert." ”
Fang Yang smiled, sent him away, and said to himself: "Of course I am an expert, it takes you a year and a half to write a script, and Lao Tzu will copy it in one night, oh no, it will be created." ”
The script was handed over to Jin Caishen to get it done, and the actors let Zhao Wei return to China to choose, Fang Yang's current focus is on Hollywood, and this drama is to be filmed in China, so he is not suitable for the actor, Zhao Wei finalized the choice of the actor not long after returning to China, and he is a handsome guy Chen Kun who is in the limelight in the domestic film industry.
Zhao Wei asked Fang Yang's opinion on the phone, and Fang Yang said: "Chen Kun, an actor, is not from our company!" I think you'd better choose one of the male actors in our company. ”
Zhao Wei said: "You didn't pay attention to cultivating male actors at all before, except for you, no one can do it, do you want me to choose one of Xu Zheng and Huang Bo?" Please, it's okay for them to act in comedy, but it's enough to act in costume dramas. ”
Fang Yang was silent, this is the truth, he always occupies the position of the leading actor, and the entire Feiyang Entertainment Company really can't find a second actor who can pick the lead, but the actress can pick the lead by pulling one out casually, but he is still hesitating: "Don't pick one more and choose one." ”
Fang Yang knew that this Chen Kun was Zhao Wei's classmate at Nortel, and acting as a rival in a movie was the easiest to have feelings, in fact, in another time and space, there were also scandals between them, but this kind of scandal was false and real, some were for hype, and some were made up by Yuji, and a scandal was spread when a slightly intimate photo was taken.
Zhao Wei understood his careful thoughts, and said with a smile: "You won't be afraid that I will fall into the arms of other men, right?" Are you not confident in me or in yourself? ”
Fang Yang thought about it, and did feel that he was a little cautious, whether it was Zhao Wei before rebirth or Zhao Wei now, she was not a woman who could be lightly soaked in a little white face, there was really no need to be so uneasy about her, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you can make up your own mind." ”
Jin Caishen revised the script, Fang Yang felt that it was indeed better than the original, worthy of being the most famous screenwriter, this talent was more than a little more than him, so he sent the script to Zhao Wei, and Zhao Wei quickly pulled up the crew, ready to start at any time.
Zhao Wei returned to China, and Fang Yang transferred Xu Jinglei to the United States, this is also a talented and beautiful woman, it is necessary to hold her up. Fang Yang gave her the script of "Adventure in the Center of the Earth" and said to her: "Whether you can be upgraded to become a big Hollywood director depends on your performance in this play." ”
Xu Jinglei clenched his little fist and said, "Don't worry, I guarantee to surpass Zhao Wei's Alice in Wonderland." ”
Women have their own 'palace fighting' attributes, there is never a lack of open and secret battles between them, some fight for their appearance and some fight for intelligence, just Fang Yang a man, their love for them is naturally different, each of them wants to become the most favored woman.
Fang Yang said with a smile: "It's good to have fighting spirit, but don't take it too seriously, the box office depends on luck, don't force it." ”
"Adventure in the Center of the Earth" was also filmed in cooperation with DreamWorks, Danny met Xu Jinglei for the first time, and secretly said to Fang Yang: "Everyone else spends money to be a popular actress, but you are a popular female director, I really can't see through your behavior." ”
Fang Yang said: "The popular actress is fancy her beauty, and the popular female director is fancy her talent, the same reason." ”
Danny said, "Okay, I accept your statement, is this movie still the old rules?" ”
Fang Yang stretched out his hand to shake him: "It's still the old rule, one person invests half and divides the account fifty-fifty." (To be continued.) )
