Chapter 436: Then make a TV series

"The second part of "Wild Age" "Hundred Clans" is about to be released, and Lin Yuquan will hold a new book signing in the ten countries and regions with the highest box office of the movie."

"Los Angeles Times", "AOL", "Xinglang Entertainment", "Kyoto Evening News", "Sing Tao Daily", "Chosun Ilbo", "The Sun" countless media around the world reported on this, the report mentioned: "The world's best-selling, the sequel to the "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" series "Wild Story: The Rise of the Apes", which is a global bestseller, will be fully released in August together with "Twilight: Dawn", and the English version will be officially launched by Little Bear Publishing House at 0:01 a.m. on August 16 (Saturday). Book lovers will be able to book online from July 20 to give back to fans and audiences for their support for the "Wild Wild: Rise of the Apes" movie, and the global book signing will be held after the release of "Wild Wild: Rise of the Hundred Tribes", and the signing location will be the highest-grossing city in the top 10 countries and regions of the film. ”

Lin Yuquan later wrote on Twitter and Facebook: "I am really, really, very grateful to all the friends who support and love the movie and novel "Wild Story: Rise of the Apes", because without your support, "Wild Story: Rise of the Apes" would not be able to achieve its current success, and it is precisely because of your support that I can go all out in the future to present the best things to everyone."

Oh, I'm sorry, but I can't sign new books in more places due to the preparation of the next film, and I only chose the top 10 countries and regions with the highest box office, so what are you waiting for? See you in the new bookmarks! As for my new work plans, would I say it's an earthquake movie? Of course not. ”

As soon as these two pieces of news spread, they quickly caused a huge shock. Wow, Lin Yuquan is going to hold a book signing for "Wild Story", which is definitely exciting news for book fans or movie fans, who can finally meet their idols up close and get their idols' autographs.

Of course, there is definitely no chance in the general country and region. However, in the top 10 markets at the box office, such as Los Angeles, New York, Kyoto, Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo, London, and Paris, the enthusiasm of movie fans and book lovers has been ignited again.

And Lin Yuquan's new work is planned to be an earthquake movie. is even more exclaimed, after Lin Yuquan's new movie became a hot topic, everyone was speculating about what kind of theme and content he would make. I didn't expect it to be a disaster movie. But this is not an incredible thing, although Lin Yuquan is best at various themes of the action genre, it does not mean that he can't shoot other genres, he has just finished the shooting of a small fresh love movie. Speaking of which, instead of being strange, it seems logical, who doesn't know that Kung Fu Lin has gone deep into the disaster area before to participate in the earthquake relief of the Wenchuan earthquake. Maybe that's when he was touched. Then came the idea of making an earthquake movie.

As the director who just created the box office myth of "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race", Lin Yuquan is definitely the hottest figure in the entertainment industry today, with his influence, in fact, no matter what new film he makes, it will attract global attention, not to mention, Lin Yuquan's new film is actually an earthquake movie.

In the shocking catastrophe in the past, Lin Yuquan is definitely an unforgettable name, not only because of his generous donation and active collection of donations, but also because of his great expression of tireless hardship, going deep into the front line of earthquake relief, fighting for more than 60 hours without sleep, saving more than 100 people from the hands of death, and because of the touching he brought to the world in the rescue work, "Have you watched "Soldier Assault"? Don't give up, don't give up, as long as you persevere, there will always be gains", "I can't rest now, there is more time to rest, but there is no time to save people." Although it has been a while, those touching words are deeply engraved in my heart.

The earthquake hero's kung fu Lin personally shoots earthquake movies, which is much more interesting than ordinary directors making a disaster movie, how not to make fans and audiences look forward to this, everyone wants to know what kind of earthquake disaster movie Lin Yuquan will shoot?

"Will it be a movie like 2012?" Some fans speculate that "2012" is one of the most popular new films in recent preparations, and it is also a disaster movie film, the story planning comes from the prophecy of the Mayan civilization, "After the darkness falls on December 21, 2012, the dawn of December 22 will never come." "There has never been a date in history that has had such a huge impact on mankind as December 21, 2012, and the film is based on the apocalyptic theory of how the protagonists struggle to survive on the Noah's Ark secretly built by governments when the end of the world in 2012 comes.

As soon as this film was announced, it immediately attracted people's attention with its touching and upcoming 2012 and strong production team, with an investment of 200 million US dollars, an absolute super-large production, directed by Roland Rowland. Emmerich, his previous "Independence Day", "The Day After Tomorrow", "Godzilla" and so on have achieved good box office, of which "Independence Day" was the annual box office champion in 96, with a North American box office of $306.1 million and a global box office of $817.4 million.

Since last month, Sony has continued to release news about movie franchise actors. Cusack, as the leading actor, plays a scientist in the film, who is tasked with preventing the prophesied end of the world from happening in the Mayan civilization. In addition to him, Amanda. Pete, Danny. Glover, Woody. Harrison and Chiwet. Ejiofor will also play an important role in the film.

But this speculation was quickly denied by more fans and audiences, Roland. Emmerich is a typical popcorn director, judging from his previous works, the investment of 200 million US dollars in "2012" must be a disaster movie based on various special effects, Lin Yuquan is naturally extremely good at special effects, but if it is because of the idea of earthquake relief that he has personally experienced, Lin Yuquan will definitely not simply make a disaster movie with thrilling special effects, and it is certainly not a conventional disaster commercial film routine, combining scientists and disasters. The scientist's perspective is evident throughout the disaster. Lin Yuquan really felt the grief brought by the disaster, and he wanted to shoot something about human nature in the disaster.

This statement has been recognized by countless fans, audiences and the media, and no one doubts that Lin Yuquan can realistically present the disaster scenes of earthquakes, floods, and tornadoes. Presenting the audience with the ultimate wonderful visual feast, but Lin Yuquan is certainly not satisfied with this, although this can already make the film a good box office, if only like Michael. Bay, Roland. Emmerich pursues the box office like that, he can't shoot "Heartbeat", which is destined not to have too high a box office, obviously, Lin Yuquan cares more about his inner thoughts. He should have made films like "New York Earthquake", "Vertical Limit", and "World Trade Center", supplemented by disaster special effects, and story and emotion as the axis.

Is that like "World Trade Center", "Apollo 13"? Based on a real disaster event, what about filming the Wenchuan earthquake directly? At this point, almost everyone thinks it is possible, after all, the Wenchuan earthquake has just passed. Lin Yuquan personally participated in the rescue.

on this. While fans are looking forward to it, they also have too many questions, hoping to get Lin Yuquan's answer.

At the same time, the film-related industry seems to be in chaos, and media reporters are desperate to get information about the film's title, investment budget, cast, and behind-the-scenes team.

The major film companies are very concerned about the expected release schedule of Lin Yuquan's new film, not to mention Lin Yuquan's personal horror box office appeal. Disaster movies also have extremely high box office potential due to their excellent visual effects. No one wants their blockbuster film to face Lin Yuquan's new disaster film, which has suffered heavy losses.

Needless to say, actors and agents, if it is a disaster movie, the character will definitely be able to show his face, and the attraction of Lin Yuquan's movie to actors is needless to say, although after the success of the movie, the main credit is attributed to Lin Yuquan, but the starring role of a box office and word-of-mouth double harvest movie is obviously helpful to their acting career. What makes everyone anxious is that they don't know whether Lin Yuquan's disaster movie is a Hollywood film or a Chinese film, and this question is very critical.

"You have to do your best to figure out the content of the movie made by Kung Fu Lin, if it's about the Wenchuan earthquake, then there will be no drama." Scarlett, who wanted to cooperate with Lin Yuquan for a long time. Johnson said to his agent.

"Sister Zhao, did you say that Director Lin was filming the Wenchuan earthquake? If it was the Wenchuan earthquake, I might have a chance to star. Zhang Jiani said to her agent.

As for Lin Yuquan's close friends, Wang Luodan, Jiang Yan, Luo Jin, Zhu Yawen, Zhou Xun, Gao Yuanyuan and others all called or sent text messages to ask if there was a role suitable for them.

The film special effects company that is good at disaster special effects is extremely hopeful to win the list of special effects for Lin Yuquan's new film, since it is a disaster movie, then the special effects investment must be expensive, in fact, except for a few top special effects companies such as Weta Digital and Industrial Light and Magic, most of the special effects companies are operating very badly, and a big list is of great significance to them.

Lin Yuquan has been in a busy promotional schedule, just in his spare time to pay attention to the progress of other aspects of publicity, the unexpected publicity effect naturally made him extremely satisfied, in terms of the new film, he did not announce more information, on the one hand, it is not time, on the other hand, due to the recent busy publicity, his script has not been completely completed.

"New York Earthquake"? Seeing the speculation of fans on the Internet, Lin Yuquan smiled slightly, the phone suddenly rang, and when he saw the caller ID above, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, and he was about to call Chris. Anderson, asking about box office conditions everywhere: "Hey, Chris! ”

"Boss, the movie plan you told me yesterday may not be able to be operated by us." After a brief pleasantries, Chris. Anderson gets straight to the point.

"Oh, why?" Lin Yuquan looked very surprised, during this time he felt more and more that Benedict. Cumberbatch as Sherlock. Sherlock Holmes, it's interesting to create a curly Sherlock Holmes that is close to the modern city, so yesterday I arranged for Chris. Anderson and Kevin. Garnett begins preparations for the film.

"Holmes has already taken the lead, and Warner has previously announced that the company will be released according to the company. Wigram's upcoming comic of the same name, adapted and filmed in a new version of Sherlock Holmes, was filmed by Gai. Directed by Richie, Joe. Silver, Lionar. Wigram, Susan. Downey is the producer, and it has been confirmed that the current popular Robert Jr. Starring Downey. In addition, Sony Columbia has also taken a fancy to this theme, but their purpose is to spoof, and the comedy version of "Sherlock Holmes" has not yet been titled. Aparo Producers, Ethan. Cohen wrote the screenplay and was ready to let Sasha. Byron. Cohen and Will. Farrell is working together again, and if we shoot again, we will definitely crash. "Chris. Anderson sighed.

Lin Yuquan frowned slightly, this result is bad enough, he is very optimistic about the amazing box office potential of the outbreak of Sherlock Holmes, the background of the modern story, and believes that the "Sherlock Holmes" movie conceived according to his idea will be very interesting.

"When is the Sherlock Holmes movie from Warners and Sony expected to be released?"

"It's not clear to Sony for the time being, Warner's announcement that it plans to be released in 2010, but according to the film preparation process, it will actually be released next year, and it will definitely not work for us to launch it first." Chris. Anderson said sadly,

Well, Lin Yuquan's last thought was also broken, and it was no longer possible to make a movie version of "Sherlock Holmes" in a short period of time, and after a moment of silence, he quickly made a decision: "Since we can't make a movie, then we will make a TV series." ”

"TV series?" Chris. Anderson was a little surprised.

"Why, do you think that film companies can't produce zuò TV series?" Lin Yuquan smiled slightly.

"It's not, the main reason is that we don't have experience in making zuò on TV, the production of movies and TV series is completely different, and we may not be able to operate a good drama series." Chris. Anderson shook his head.

"It doesn't matter if we don't have experience, we can buy a company with rich experience and specialize in TV dramas in the future." Like Hollywood movies, American dramas are popular all over the world, Lin Yuquan certainly doesn't want to miss this field, there are huge profits to be profitable or one of them, the important thing is to achieve the purpose of producing more high-quality dramas in his heart, in his opinion, compared with movies, in fact, TV series are the entertainment and leisure methods that people rely on the most, maybe the profit margin of TV series is far less than that of movies, but the significance of making TV series is not less than movies, but higher.

"Okay, boss." It's not a bad decision to invest in the American drama production, since Lin Yuquan, as the boss, intends to do so. Naturally, Anderson would not object.

Subsequently, Lin Yuquan did not communicate with Chris. Anderson continued to talk about Sherlock Holmes, and since he decided to make a TV series, he would wait for the acquisition of the TV production company to discuss it slowly.

While Lin Yuquan was busy with publicity, the marriage news of Liang Chaowei and Liu Jialing had been boiling, and it seemed to have become an entertainment topic second only to Lin Yuquan and "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" in the three places across the Taiwan Strait in recent times.
