When September came, Enigma's new TV series began to be promoted, and the annual TV drama season kept them busy.

In the end, the internal conversation of the Mystery Company did not yield any results.

As for investing in 3D films, it can be said that neither Clark nor Michael has any objections. Clark has always had a great desire to make movies better, and Michael is now mainly managing TV series, but he has been in Hollywood for a long time, and he also knows how much trouble it will be if a new technology is born if he doesn't catch up sooner. Bob and Jack didn't have much of a problem with this, which wasn't too much of a problem for them, but the only trouble was that Alexander was still a little conservative and felt that it was too wasteful.

Now Hollywood, investing about 100 million in movies can guarantee a good income, and such a thing is the best model in Alexander's opinion. Since there is already a ready-made good model, it is best to develop in this model, and he is still a little reluctant to make new attempts.

Since he had always thought so, Levy didn't rush him. Alexander is still not quite in favor of such a large-scale investment, so let's put it for now. Anyway, there is no rush to shoot this movie now. You can have waited a little longer.

Levy knows Alexander very well, and it won't be long, as long as it comes to the end of the year, after seeing the box office figures of The Lord of the Rings, Alexander is estimated to be unable to sit still.

The higher and higher box office figures are a great stimulus for people. At that time, he will also agree to try something new.

Moreover, Levy agrees that the attempt may be successful.

The story of Avatar, in fact, is a planetary version of Dances with Wolves, and aside from the picture, the content can be described as pale and powerless. But. James Cameron's strength is that he relied on film technology to achieve box office results that other films can't achieve, which impresses all movies.

If Levy didn't know this, it would be fine, knowing this, he would naturally find a way to develop technology and grab the first place.

It's just that these things may have to wait for a while. However, he is not in a hurry anyway, what will happen in the future. I'll talk about it later.

After July passed, the summer schedule was basically over. This year's movie box office, with four blockbusters in front, and in the later movies, there are not too many dark horses, this summer has passed, and what people are waiting for now is the Lord of the Rings 3 in the Christmas schedule.

At this time, Levy Dao also got some rest. Anyway, it didn't matter to him. It was a lot more relaxed, and he had other activities to participate in.

For example, in this year, he participated in the Emmy Awards.

At the Emmy Awards ceremony. In fact, every year is indispensable to the works of the Mystery Company. CSI can now be regarded as a long-lived drama, and although there are many other works of the same type, he is still firmly supported in front. In other TV works, the anti-terrorism 24 hours that only started in 01. Now it can be said that it has quickly squeezed the market, and it has become a hit drama, and the response is also very good. It's the super hero TV series. The current ratings have declined a bit, but it has not yet reached the point where it needs to be cut in half, and it can be regarded as holding on now.

In fact, the producers of these TV series are not Levy anymore, and more of them are all managed by Michael or Bob. A company with two hit dramas, and there are other TV series, such a company can participate in the Emmy Awards almost every year.

Levy came here for his new TV series - he filmed a new TV series, and in the initial stage, he also needed some other stars to make cameos in the past to increase his popularity, so he also chose to come.

And when he arrived at the venue, the question he heard the most was actually a question.

"Are you preparing any new movies lately? What's planned? ”

"Why does everybody think I have a new movie to make?"

In this regard, Levy also complained, and Leslie, who was with him, heard this complaint and immediately laughed, "Who made you always make movies one after another?" The previous movie has already been drawn, and there is no new movie, which is unscientific for you no matter how you look at it. ”

Levy rolled his eyes at Lesrie's answer, which was straightforward enough, but it wasn't wrong.

"Seriously, do you have any movies in the works?" Leslie also asked, "I'm also curious about what you're preparing for this time." ”

Soon, Leslie also raised the issue.

Levy seems to have been somewhat quiet in recent times, which has left Leslie a little puzzled. Although the three-body problem movie is good, it is only a commercial film after all. Leslie originally thought that Elivian had a temper, and he would shoot another movie in the second half of this year and release it before the end of the year, in order to steal the Oscars, but Levi didn't do anything until September, which also made Leslie feel a little surprised.

What the hell is he doing? Not only were others curious, but Leslie was also curious.

"To say that there was no preparation would be a lie. I did have a couple of scripts in my hands, and I did think about how I was going to make a movie. However, it has not been ready lately. If you want to shoot it seriously, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until next year. ”

Preparing for such a long time surprised Leslie.

"You're not going to shoot blockbusters again, are you? Doesn't it mean that the Three-Body Problem 2 novel hasn't been written yet? Are you going to start a new series? Leslie asked, curious.

The three-body novel is now on sale, and this translated work immediately occupied the top position in the list of Chinese translated novels as soon as it was sold. Leslie also bought a copy himself, although he didn't read it very carefully, but he still found it quite interesting, and he paid attention to the second book, and now when he heard Levy shoot the movie, his first reaction was that the three-body problem 2 had not been written yet, so what was there to shoot?

"How so? It's tiring to shoot a blockbuster, where can I start another series? I don't have that much energy. I'm talking about a couple of scripts in my hand. It should be said that they are all literary films, but they are not easy to make. ”

Levy's words are not false - after filming the Three-Body Problem, he is indeed thinking about whether it is time to make a new movie. It's just that when he wanted to shoot, he found out that he was in a lot of trouble.

In Levy's hands, there are also a few scripts - the script of "Spring in the Cattle Herding Class" is still in his hands. However, he didn't have much interest in shooting this movie.

It's not that the movie is bad - in fact, Levy knows very well that this movie would be good if it could be made - but the problem was that the film required a group of children to play it, and it had to be done well. Moreover, this movie is a movie with a lot of music, and if you want to shoot this movie well, then you have to have a lot of singing parts, which also requires a lot of ability.

Levy has no interest in making movies with a group of children, and he has always preferred actors with more acting skills than those who are out of control. Children, cats and dogs are the most uncontrollable factors in film shooting, they either play poorly or steal the scene too much, it is difficult to shoot the best state, Levy is not sure that he can make such a movie.

Moreover, he has never known much about music, every time he makes a movie, he dares to try to use some newcomers in other links, but in the soundtrack section, he has to invite the top soundtrack artists to score the music, because he lacks enough talent for this link.

In this regard, he doesn't dare to charge the master, a musical movie, if you don't know music, then it's better not to touch it, otherwise, it will be a waste of a good script.

This script is better handed over to someone who really knows how to shoot in the future. A good musical movie script, don't let yourself be ruined by a layman.

And in his hand, another movie script is the adaptation rights of "Youth Pi". However, this script is just as troublesome. In Levy's opinion, this is also a movie that uses 3D to 2D. Almost all the time at sea, and with extremely beautiful scenery and tigers, this kind of movie is obviously more suitable for 3D.

If possible, he also wants to wait until a later date to shoot the film.

And these two movies could not be filmed, so that the script that Levy can use now has only one untouchable adaptation right.

This movie is based on a true story, and it is a rather heartwarming film that reflects inspiration and friendship, so it stands to reason that it is also a good choice. However, how to adapt this script also made Levy a little tricky.

In Levy's memory, the untouchable film achieved the best box office result of the year when it was released in France, and it was released in the United States, and the box office was also quite good. And this film was originally a contender for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, but at the last moment, it was ruined by the media to ruin its chances.

The reason for this is because the media published articles accusing the film of being 'aggressive, provocative, and racist', portraying black people as stupid and problematic criminals, and a form of discrimination against black people.

It's actually a kind of funny situation: blacks are still not high-status, have fewer opportunities to go to school, and are not as smart as whites, plus poor, and indeed have more criminals - but these phenomena can exist, and you can't mention them in the movie.

The untouchable French version is lost in this regard. If you want to communicate between the two classes, you must first portray the huge gap between the two classes, and this film does the same, which is why it is considered to deliberately discriminate against black people.

If the adaptation is not good, then he is likely to end up with a reputation for racism - which is also a very troublesome script.

And these troubles also made Levy have to slow down his pace and see what to do. (To be continued......)
