Chapter 591: Big Movie Peripheral Strategy
"Why didn't you draw Batman into a comic book first?" The moderator asked.
This is actually a question that many people are curious about.
Since Li Chencan has such an idea, why not turn it into a comic first and accumulate a lot of fans? What did he have in mind?
Li Chencan smiled, and then said, "I don't draw it into a comic, I have several reasons. ”
"First of all, I don't have a comic company, I don't have a comic book writer that I think is a good fit, and I don't know how to draw comics myself. Second, because comics nowadays are becoming more and more in the direction of fast food, after all, comics are still more geared towards teenagers, who rarely have the patience to watch the story of a hero's slow rise. Third, the idea that I want to make Batman into a movie has been brewing in my heart for a long time, and I can't suppress it anymore! ”
Li Chencan said these things, and many people suddenly realized that this was the reason!
But what Li Chencan said is really right...... The current comic market and the like are indeed what he is talking about now.
Li Chencan rarely appears in the show, and once in a while, he always seems very rational, and he is still like that today, what he says is orderly, logical, and can withstand scrutiny.
This kind of Li Chencan, although he is not very old, everyone still likes it anyway, and they also think that he is more calm.
"Batman is a flesh-and-blood superhero in the movie, and he also has a real and credible upbringing, and as the person who created Batman, why did you think of creating such a different superhero?"
- "As I said before, bats are unpredictable animals. Batman also has such characteristics, he is indeed unpredictable. And Batman's various personality traits originated from a question I asked myself. This question is the same as Batman's question to himself - how can a person change the world, especially how should an ordinary person change the world? Batman is doing such a thing, in addition to his rich family resources and convenient conditions. The rest of him is just an ordinary person, and he has done a lot of hard work to change the world......"
Truly. Even on another plane, Batman is a truly unique superhero.
Iron Man also has no abilities, but the way he grew up is also a pure superhero rise process.
Even if it's Green Arrow. There's a bit of a Batman feel to it. But it's still completely different from Batman.
Batman, is a superhero who is truly different.
"Many fans are more concerned about the sequel to "Batman", can you tell us about it?"
"I prepared a sequel to Batman...... My rough plan is to make "Batman" a trilogy, and the third part should be the ending. Li Chencan said: "Now it's the first part, "Batman: Time to Go to War", next, I will put into the filming of the second part as soon as possible, the name of the second part of "Batman" should be "The Dark Knight". ”
Li Chencan's second part was so refreshingly said, but it was a little surprising.
The moderator immediately realized. This is a pretty good time, if you ask Li Chencan's other words now. A good choice for sure: "The Dark Knight? Can you tell us more about the story of The Dark Knight? How will this movie be different from other films? ”
Li Chencan thought for a while, and then picked some words and said: "This is the follow-up content of Batman, at the end of "Batman: Time to War", there is a scene that says that there are other crimes on Nai He Island, and the content of the second part is also related to this matter. In "The Dark Knight", in fact, you can use the word 'dark' as the name suggests? In the first part, I filmed some conflicts between Batman's existence and real society and law, and by the time of the second part, this conflict may intensify! In many superhero movies, superheroes are always facing a variety of different conflicts, and Batsleeve Love is the same, this time, he is facing a new conflict! ”
It's pretty much the same when it comes to this, and it's not good to talk too much.
The host had a rough idea of many things in his mind through the communication with Li Chencan before, and he knew that Li Chencan didn't plan to go on when he said this, and he also began to move on to other topics with interest: "Everyone says that the movie "Batman: Time to War", in addition to showing Batman's growth process, also has many other things, such as some reflections on this society, which is expressed in the movie lines, is this the case?" ”
In "Batman: Time to Go to War", there are indeed many lines such as that this society is indifferent, so the host will have this question.
"How do you say this...... There are a few, but what it is, please tell for yourself, but if you have to talk about this society, thinking about the world, then I want to ask you to look forward to the official release of "The Dark Knight", I think there will be more such content in this movie. Li Chencan smiled and promoted his movie.
…… After the interview with the movie light column, many people had a lot of feelings.
The main thing is that they heard about Batman's creative process from Li Chencan's mouth, and they really felt it.
Can one person really change the world?
In addition, one of the things that is widely discussed by the big guys now is "Batman: The Dark Knight", many people were more concerned about whether the follow-up movie of "Batman" would be filmed, but now, I finally heard an answer from Li Chencan's mouth, so everyone is relieved.
"The Dark Knight...... I reckon Batman will be a person who is not allowed by law......"
"He wasn't allowed by the law before...... Li Chencan's imagination is very rich...... We'll just have to wait and see. ”
"I'm really looking forward to the new Batman movie!"
…… All sorts of different voices appeared, but everyone was basically looking forward to the next movie, and the experience that "Batman: Time to War" brought to everyone made them look forward to "The Dark Knight".
Everyone has a lot of different plot speculations about "Batman: The Dark Knight", and there are also a lot of different ideas, and all kinds of ideas to give you collide with, so that more and more people have great expectations for this movie.
Soon, Li Chencan's official English website, as well as the official website of Fireworks Film Company, also exposed the filming and release time of the movie "Batman: The Dark Knight".
On this table, "Batman: The Dark Knight" will start filming in November this year, and the production will be completed around April next year, and then after preparation, December next year will be the release time of "Batman: The Dark Knight"!
In this way, "Batman: The Dark Knight" has also become the last link in Fireworks Films' film release plan this year.
Seeing such a schedule, many Batman fans have finally landed on the ground in their hearts! It seems that "Batman: The Dark Knight" has indeed been put on the agenda, so that everyone is looking forward to this movie, and there is also a purpose, and it is good to know when this movie will be released.
…… Fireworks Films is indeed preparing the filming plan for "Batman: The Dark Knight".
Seriously, Li Chencan's "Batman: Time to War" is of course inferior in box office performance compared to his previous films, but the problem is that "Batman: Time to War" is the beginning of a series, which his previous movies can't compare with, superhero movies have the characteristics of continuous accumulation of box office and continuous accumulation, one is stronger than the other!
Therefore, the "Batman" series must be very interesting!
This movie also brought huge benefits to Fireworks Film Company.
First of all, in terms of pure box office sharing, with the current box office development momentum of "Batman: Time to War", when the release is completed, it should be able to give Fireworks Film Company about 20 million US dollars after deducting the cost of the movie, of course, this is a small amount of money, after all, the box office of the movie is not too high. But the peripheral copyright of the film is terrible, the DVD copyright of the film in various countries, and other copyrights, such as toys, figurines, etc., will have a lot of derivative copyrights, as well as TV stations in various countries, network on-demand fees, etc., all of which can also bring about 100 million US dollars in revenue to the fireworks film company, so that the assets of the fireworks film company have swelled a lot again!
Such a movie, the more it is made, the higher the box office and revenue, of course it will continue to be filmed, not to mention, Li Chencan himself must shoot the entire series of the "Batman" trilogy, there is no doubt about it.
In addition, the biggest effect that this movie has brought to Fireworks Film Company is to enrich the film library, a superhero movie can bring a huge enrichment to the film library of Fireworks Film Company, and it can also bring higher value.
Now, there are several comic companies that want to cooperate with Li Chencan to buy the copyright of "Batman", but Li Chencan himself has his own ideas about this.
After all, there are too many superhero stories in Li Chencan's head, although he has hardly read comics, only watched movies, but Li Chencan has a relatively clear grasp of the ins and outs of the superheroes in each movie. So he was able to open his own comic company, and then give the ideas and some context of these stories to the artists, so that they could draw superheroes and form an independent universe!
