Wu Tian has actually made great contributions to MGM for a long time, and after he just acquired MGM, Wu Tian immediately paved the way for MGM's future development, that is, the Marvel superhero series of movies.

It can be said that among the Hollywood blockbusters ten years later, the Marvel series is definitely the top priority, and its ability to win the box office can be described as terrifying.

However, at the current level of special effects technology, it is relatively difficult to show the Marvel series, and at present, we can only shoot some films that do not have high requirements for special effects, such as Black Widow, Hawkeye's exclusive films, and the very popular Captain Mi Guo.

According to the current progress, the first Captain of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been scheduled for next summer, and plans to launch at least one Marvel movie every year in the future, in order to wait for the special effects technology to become more mature, and then speed up the launch of the film.

However, this great contribution was naturally ignored by Qi Bing, and her request was that Wu Tian personally direct a film for MGM.

Wu Tian had to think about it for a while, and finally decided on a single-episode movie.

As we all know, the series of movies is the most profitable, with the accumulated strong popularity, it is easy to get a high box office, the most well-known is "Fast and Radical. The "Love" series has been filmed for more than ten years in one go, and it is still popular in theaters and crazy at the box office.

Although Wu Tian admires this kind of film very much, and naturally instructed MGM to launch his own series of movies, Wu Tian himself would not choose this type of film. Not to mention the waste of time in making this kind of series of films, it is purely to make trouble for yourself, just to say that it is difficult to produce real masterpieces in this kind of film.

Yes. Wu Tian had already secretly decided. It's just that you don't shoot it yourself. Since you want to make it, you must make a really good film, even if you can't win the Oscar in one fell swoop, at least you have to make a good film that can win the audience's reputation!

Wu Tian seriously recalled the films he remembered a few years later, looking for the best inspiration.

After thinking about it carefully, Wu Tian first decided that what he wanted to shoot must be a commercial film, after all, Wu Tian was not very interested in literary films, and he wanted to shoot such delicate emotions. Wu Tian didn't think he had that strength, after all, he himself said it with some rough lines.

Commercial films have never been valued by the Oscars, and it is not ordinarily difficult to win awards. However, Wu Tian doesn't care, anyway, he cares more about the audience's recognition than the trophy.

In Wu Tian's memory, in addition to the Marvel series, there are still many excellent Hollywood blockbusters that Wu Tian agrees with, and it is quite difficult to select one from them......

On the eve of the Spring Festival, MGM New Vision Cinema Line Company was officially established. As the first cinema chain established by foreign and private capital in China, it has naturally attracted attention from all parties. At the grand company establishment ceremony, a number of Beijing politicians were invited. Dignitaries of the government were present, even in one of them. Declare. The Deputy Minister also attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony in person.

People in the circle naturally know that this cinema chain can break the routine and enter the cinema chain that has been in the franchise, and there is naturally the support of big people behind it, and naturally all parties have few difficulties, which paves the way for the rapid expansion of the cinema chain in the next step.

According to the joint venture agreement, MGM occupies 40 percent of the shares of the theater chain, New Vision occupies 50 percent, and the remaining 10 percent of the shares are jointly held by a number of small shareholders -- although Wu Tian has always liked to eat alone, he can't bear to revise the policy this time, and in order to achieve the goal as soon as possible, he can only absorb some small shareholders -- but Wu Tian will resolutely not give away dry shares in vain, and if you want to follow the cup, then take the money and invest it, otherwise everything will not be discussed.

As a result, it took less than two months for the cinema chain to be officially established, and with the assistance of various shareholders, it began to quickly occupy the first-tier cities, and there was more than one cinema in each city, only in the capital, and the construction of four cinemas was started at the same time.

However, Wu Tian didn't need to worry about specific affairs, after he sent Qi Bing and Chen Lili away, he plunged into the planning of the next movie.

After a period of careful thinking, Wu Tian finally decided to shoot a science fiction film called "District 9".

Although science fiction films have never been very popular at the Oscars, except for "E.T" in '82, no science fiction film has won an Oscar for 20 years. Wu Tian didn't take the Oscar as a target, so it didn't matter.

However, seriously speaking, "District 9" is not an excellent science fiction film, the key problem is that its shooting cost is too low, only 30 million US dollars, so there are no gorgeous special effects and well-known stars, there are almost no highlights, but it is such a low-cost film, but it has a "soul" that many Hollywood blockbusters do not have!

The film tells the story of an alien spaceship that crashes to the earth, and the alien refugees like prawns are confined by the earthlings, and humans regard them as pests and oppress them in various ways. And one of the guard captains, infected with an unknown virus, began to mutate into "prawns", and the once beautiful captain became an alien, in order to avoid being caught by humans for research, he could only escape to the ninth district and assist the aliens to escape from the earth......

This film, which seems to have a somewhat chaotic plot and a sluggish rhythm, received rave reviews after its release and was thumbs up by many film critics. Definitely a rare occurrence. And the film finally relied on a mere investment of 30 million. It has received a full 120 million at the box office. It was a great success.

Wu Tian believes that if there is enough investment and enough publicity, the achievements of this film can be taken to a few more levels and become an immortal classic in real science fiction films!

*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ********************************************************************************

"I thought about the film, but the production is relatively large, 200 million US dollars. Questions? ”

Wu Tian dialed Qi Bing's phone with a smile and said.

"Two hundred million? No problem, even a billion is no problem! Qi Bing immediately responded.

"Tsk, you're not qualified, you didn't even ask me what the content of this film was, and you dared to call one billion? Aren't you afraid of losing money? Wu Tian smiled bitterly.

"Don't be afraid!" Qi Bing shouted, "I believe in your ability, if you really want to spend a billion to make a movie, you will definitely be able to earn back 200 million at the box office!" ”

"Hehe, you're more confident than me......" Wu Tian said with a smile.

"Of course! When are you going to turn it on? What are needed? I'll arrange for someone to send them back to China! Qi Bing said.

"Hmm. There is no need to send it, this film is not filmed in China. Wu Tian said.

"Ahh That's great, when are you coming to the United States? Qi Bing said in surprise.

"It's not filming in the United States." Wu Tian said, "At least the exterior part is not in the United States, and the studio shots can be shot in the United States, but not too much." ”

"Oh, where is the location?" Qi Bing asked.

"Africa." Wu Tian said.

The scene of District 9 in the original film was filmed in the slums of Africa, and only there can the refugee life of the "prawns" be created. Of course, Wu Tian has enough funds to build such a scene, but Wu Tian finally decided to go to Africa, after all, the scene built is never more realistic than the real scene.

Besides, instead of spending money on building a good scene, it is better to go to the slum to shoot, and you can also make some compensation to the local poor.

"Africa?" Qi Bing was stunned for a moment and said, "What kind of film do you want to make?" ”

"Science fiction." Wu Tian said.

"Sci-fi? How could it be related to Africa......" Qi Bing said speechlessly.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll get the script done when I get back, you can read the script directly." Wu Tian said, "Well, get ready, after the Spring Festival, I'll go to the United States, let's talk about the specifics." ”

"Okay, let's say it, you're not allowed to change the hexagram!" Qi Bing shouted.

*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ********************************************************************

Wu Tian is reminiscing about "District 9" while writing the script, after all, it has been nearly 20 years since Wu Tian was reborn, and "District 9" in the previous life was released around 09, which means that the current Wu Tian has been 25 years away from watching "District 9", and it is inevitable that many details are not clear.

But it doesn't matter if you can't remember the details, the key is the main storyline, especially the connotation of the film......

The core of "The Ninth District" has two key points, one is to borrow from Kafka's "Metamorphosis", which tells the psychological process of the protagonist from a human to an alien, and the other is to map the species. Ethnic oppression and inequality expose the ugliness of human nature.

As long as he grasps these two cores, Wu Tian believes that it is enough to show the soul of this film, as for the details of the story and special effects, it is not difficult for Wu Tian, who has a strong reserve force, to have a strong reserve force!

Wu Tian was seriously creating the script, and before he knew it, the Spring Festival was coming.

For ordinary people, the New Year should be a quiet holiday, no longer have to go to work every day, eat and have fun every day, but for Wu Tian, it is the most tiring time, every day has to go around to pay New Year's greetings, those bigwigs in the capital must go to their homes, the relatives in the mall also have to move, and the colleagues of Xingcheng's father also have to visit, and even made a special trip to Pengcheng to make a special trip to the old man Tie to greet the New Year.

However, compared to previous years, Wu Tian did not go to Fang Lao's house again this year - although Fang Lao passed away, it stands to reason that Fang Lao's children are still there, and Wu Tian should have walked around, but after all, he still didn't go again.

In addition, Wu Tian returned to the mall this year, but there was one more place to go, that is, the Yang family.

Although his son-in-law is a secret identity, no matter what, he has to pay New Year's greetings to his mother-in-law in person. It's a pity that Yang Xiaoya didn't come back to the mall this year, after all, the child is still young, and it is not convenient to go far away.

It was easy to work until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and Wu Tiancai finally turned around all over the place, so he had time to return to the capital, while continuing to be busy with the script of "The Ninth District", on the other hand, he was still busy preparing for the start of "No Thieves in the World".

Just as Wu Tian promised at the beginning, in the end, he Liang Tianwang personally came to the capital and participated in an audition that he hadn't participated in for a long time, but fortunately, with his excellent acting skills, he successfully got the role of the male lead in this film......
