Chapter 577: Harry Potter and the Autobots
"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" officially starts today!
At the opening ceremony, it was also written here that this would be the first work planned for Fireworks Films!
There are quite a few people here today, including a lot of different types of guys, and of course, the main people are the media, and then the others.
However, when everyone came here today, the attention to the director of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" and the creators of this film is obviously not as good as the attention to Li Chencan, of course, everyone is used to this...... After all, Li Chencan is always so popular, this kind of person who can achieve so many achievements in many fields, naturally, no matter where he goes, he may become the focus and the only object of attention in the eyes of others!
For example, today.
Li Chencan was a little uncomfortable with everyone's enthusiasm, because he was just going to come over to play soy sauce today, and when he was a soy sauce man and then gorgeous and flashy, who knew that things were often not the same as he imagined, he came here, and everyone's microphone and focus of attention were already aimed at him.
In this way, Li Chencan also had to start facing the questions of the big guys.
Of course, he also knows that after the fireworks film company announced such a few film plans, the next thing will definitely not be too simple, and there will inevitably be a bunch of people asking for the specific details of such a thing.
But Li Chencan has long been prepared to deal with all kinds of claims from reporters and the media, as well as the public.
Soon, the first question from the journalists appeared.
"Director Li. Is your "Batman: Time to War" planning to compete for this year's summer slot? ”
"That's right...... I think you can see the information that will be officially released on July 18, and on that day, it must belong to the category of summer files. I guess that's pretty clear, right? ”
"However, with all due respect, Batman: Time to War is a movie without comics as a foundation, and the appeal of this movie is actually only you and Hank. James, do you think that such appeal can make this superhero movie have the strength to compete for the summer file? ”
This reporter is really venomous, but I have to say that he really hit the nail on the head about the problems pointed out by Li Chencan. "Batman: Time to War" is indeed facing the current problem, in fact, only Li Chencan and Hank have the appeal of this film, if we talk about the appeal of superheroes...... Come on...... The appeal of a superhero movie is not the superhero movie itself. is derived from the popularity and fans that the superhero has accumulated in the comic book industry, "Batman: Time to War" obviously does not have such fans as a foundation, so how high can he get at the box office? How many people can go to the cinema to pay attention?
Li Chencan has actually thought about such a question many times, and there is something about this film. There is a release about this film. Li Chencan has his own considerations.
"For me, 'Batman: Time to War' is indeed a very confident work, although there is no comic book as a foundation, but I believe that everyone will be attracted to the story itself, because the story of this movie itself is enough to make everyone feel good." Li Chencan said: "When the movie is officially released, I think everyone will be able to understand this." ”
"We saw that a plan called the Year of Fireworks Films was posted on the official website of Fireworks Films, and we were able to see the following year. Fireworks Films will have a lot of super-big-budget movies officially released, and it is also because of this project that we know that "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is just the first work in this film project. There are other works to follow...... But can you tell us what kind of movie Transformers is? Is it a superhero movie or what? There was urgency in the eyes of the reporters.
This is something they want to understand very much, they have been paying attention to it before, but Li Chencan rarely appears in front of the media, so there is no way for everyone to forcibly ask, and it is not easy to encounter this opportunity today, so it doesn't matter what the occasion is today...... Anyway, if you catch Li Chencan, you will ask directly!
Li Chencan frowned slightly when he heard this long question.
These guys are really asking questions about other things, and they're also asking about things related to themselves.
In fact, he is also accustomed to such inquiries, and everyone always pays attention to themselves.
But I still have to return the topic to "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" as soon as possible, otherwise the effect of today's preparations will be greatly reduced.
However, he still answered the question first: "Strictly speaking, "Transformers" is also a bit similar to a superhero movie, or even a group superhero movie! But it can't be simply classified as a superhero movie, it's about a planet in the universe called Cybertron, and there are two teams in it, the more friendly Autobots and the evil Decepticons, they are both mechanical beings, and in order to grab the source of the fire, the two races broke out a big war on Earth...... There is specific information about this movie, which we will release next, and of course, there will be various modeling pictures of robots including Autobots and Decepticons, and everyone will be able to see them before "Transformers" officially starts filming! And such a time will not be too far away, two or three months at most. ”
Only then did everyone understand what was going on, and it was a bit similar to the robot that some people had speculated. However, for the specific content of this movie, there will only be a result after the film starts shooting, and even after the movie is actually released.
There is no doubt about that.
"Such a film...... It's better to have a manga as an aid. Some reporters' eyes are really poisonous, and they suddenly broke through some of the problems in the middle: "After all, this kind of unrealistic work, if it is simply a movie as the beginning, the effect may not be very good, such a movie is put on the summer file, do you really have confidence in "Transformers"?" ”
The reporters' questions were really asked mercilessly.
Li Chencan frowned and said: "That's true, I still have a lot of confidence in this "Transformers", otherwise I wouldn't have made some decisions like this......"
"Is Transformers also your work? Are you a screenwriter or what? Why didn't he direct it himself? ”
"I provided the creative idea for this film, and I was also one of the screenwriters." Li Chencan said: "As for why I didn't direct it myself...... Because I didn't feel like I was very suitable for directing a movie like this, I gave the director of the film to Mike, and I believe Mike can definitely do this thing, and ...... Please ask questions about "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", after all, today is the launch of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", so please leave more time for this movie. ”
When the reporters heard this, they also knew that it was a bit too much just now, and they actually asked Li Chencan so many questions that had nothing to do with "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" in a row...... But they were too curious at the time.
But now that Li Chencan has said such a sentence now, it is not easy for everyone to continue to ask questions, but to move on to other topics that are really related to "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone".
In fact, the movie "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" itself is also very gimmicky, and it is also worthy of everyone's attention, at least when Li Chencan said that he was going to start filming, the movie already had a lot of strong attention from fans, and everyone's attention to this movie is indeed very high.
"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and The Twilight Slap have been adapted into films, does that mean you're going to be going to go down the path of novels and movies going to work together?"
"That's right, in the future, my novels may be made into movies as soon as possible, and then I hope to be able to reach a certain commonality between the two industries, and achieve mutual promotion of each other." Li Chencan said: "The total sales of the novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" are now approaching the previous 10,000 mark in North America alone, so I think the film adaptation will also perform well." ”
However, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has only been published three books so far, and "Twilight" has only one book, and both novels have only just begun in terms of fan gathering...... Are you confident that you will be able to get readers to accept these two films? ”
Li Chencan smiled and said: "I have just said that I hope that the novel and the movie can reach a certain commonality, this is also my idea, these two novels are written and filmed at the same time, I think everyone will also like it as for the reception of fans, I believe this is okay." ”
…… After answering these questions, Li Chencan finally breathed a sigh of relief, originally he was here to make soy sauce today, but now he has become the protagonist instead, so he escaped under the pretext of urinating and did not continue to stay at the scene.
If you stay on the scene, several creators of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" will feel that there is no sense of existence......
Today's Li Chencan has once again realized his influence in the United States, to be honest, Chinese stars are influential in the United States, let alone in their previous lives, even in this time and space, although they are very influential, but after all, the entertainment industries of both countries are very developed, and there is little communication, so it is almost really a miracle that the influence of Chinese stars in the United States can have Li Chencan's level.
But this is also Li Chencan's successive successes in many fields, so that he finally has the current situation, if it is other Chinese stars, it is really difficult to start from scratch here. (To be continued......)
