All of Sun Peng's picture book themes, except for "The Lion, the Witch and the Magic Wardrobe", almost all come from the cartoons in his memory.

Of course, Disney is the biggest sufferer.

The only picture book with a Chinese theme is only "Mulan". So when Sun Peng heard this name from Chen Muchen's mouth, he was not surprised at all, and even secretly breathed a sigh of relief!

This movie, in fact, he has wanted to come up with it for a long time.

At the beginning, I hesitated between it and "The Lion King" for a long time, and finally chose the box office giant and reluctantly gave up this theme. In addition to the acceptance of overseas audiences, the impact of box office and other factors, the biggest problem is that Sun Peng doesn't know if he can adapt this animation well!

After all, it's okay for Disney to make "Mulan" like that, but if the Chinese people do it themselves......

If you directly copy the original version, Sun Peng can be sure that he will be sprayed to death by the Chinese!

When he was drawing picture books, he spent a lot of effort to reshape the whole story, and now, a few years later, Sun Peng has new ideas in some details. So after pondering for a while, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, then "Mulan"!" Make a budget and schedule as soon as possible, if the company doesn't have enough money......"

"Haha, don't worry, it's definitely enough!"

I know how generous Sun Peng is to DreamWorks, but Chen Muchen laughed this time and said proudly: "In the past few years, our company's operation has been very good, and the cash flow is sufficient!" If "The Lion King" is a box office hit after its release at the end of the year, believe me, let alone one "Mulan", we can come up with the production cost of even two films! Not to mention that in addition to DreamWorks, several companies are very interested in cooperating this time......"

……

A week later, Sun Peng approved DreamWorks' new plan.

The animated film "Mulan" will invest 600 million Huaxia coins in the production cost, of which DreamWorks' investment accounts for half of it, becoming the largest shareholder deservedly. If nothing else, DreamWorks will cooperate with two other domestic animation companies to explore the technology and produce at the same time, ensuring that the animation will be on the big screen within three years.

Three years is not a short time, but Sun Peng is already very satisfied.

After all, even if it is for Hollywood's animation giants to do it, a movie is a normal thing for three or four years, if it weren't for Sun Peng's continued to provide storyboard scripts and soundtracks, it would be an absolutely impossible task for DreamWorks to make a real top-level animated blockbuster in three years!

At the same time, the rights negotiations for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe are going very well.

Although Shakelu Pictures was very interested, and everyone's cooperation was very pleasant before, Sun Peng looked down on them a little. Therefore, after Sun Ya personally flew to Los Angeles, she quickly caught up with two other real giants - Haggs Pictures and Hymens Films.

Lang is affectionate, the concubine is intentional, and the negotiations are soon in full swing.

What Sun Peng wants is a truly powerful film company that can make "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" original and has the ability to promote it to Hollywood giants all over the world; In addition to the huge market of Huaxia, which is nearly twice as large as North America, Hollywood giants also need good scripts such as "Frozen" and "The Matrix", so everyone can take what they need and make peace with one touch!

What's more, Lao Bai has also solved the worries of the movie giants.

For a big production like "The Lion, the Witch and the Magic Wardrobe", the biggest concern for the giants is the risk of losing money, after all, there have been more films with big investments in recent years. But since Lao Bai has made it clear that he will participate in the investment, and it is still the kind that makes up for the difference, what else do the giants have to worry about?

Now what they need to struggle with is whether to bring money to Lao Bai into the game......

Compared with the rush of Hollywood giants, the "sales" of "Han Bo and Lingshi" are not so good. Although Huaxia's film companies are also interested in a lot, as long as they talked to Sun Ya for the last time, after listening to the conditions she proposed, most of them were immediately dumbfounded!

A billion investment? Funny?

The key is, is "Han Bo and the Spirit Stone" worth this number?

"It's hard to say whether Lao Bai is confident or inflated!"

Even Fang Lanshen, who was extremely confident in Sun Peng, couldn't help but shake his head when he heard the news: "The theme of wizards is too unpopular, and there has never been a similar movie in China!" And the sales of the book "Han Bo and Lingshi" are said to be quite average, why does Mr. Lao Bai value it so much? ”

"Mr. Fang, hasn't the theme of magicians in Europe and the United States always been good?"

"No, no, no, it's two completely different concepts!"

In response to his subordinates' questions, Fang Lanshen hurriedly shook his head and said: "Hollywood has been playing the magician theme for decades, but do you see if there are real super blockbusters?" I mean the billion-dollar kind at the box office? In most cases, this kind of theme is won by hunting, and there is no big scene...... Besides, there are too many movies that Hollywood makes well but Huaxia can't make, so why is Lao Bai sure to succeed? ”

"But ......"

"But he's been successful before, hasn't he?"

Today's Fang Lanshen's interest seemed to be particularly strong, and he smiled without waiting for his subordinates to question: "So you think maybe this time it's okay, we can gamble?" ”

"yes, why not? Mr. Bai said that you can make up the investment! ”

"The question is, how do you control this ratio?"

Shaking his head, Fang Lanshen chuckled: "Lao Bai votes more, and the proportion is naturally large, we invest energy and time but don't have much right to speak, it's not interesting to do, but if the other party votes less...... The total amount of one billion Huaxia coins is still too risky! ”

"Uh......"

Licking his lips, the subordinate stopped talking.

However, he still seemed to be very unwilling, and couldn't help but sigh: "Then according to what you say, we can only give up this opportunity?" That's the old white, and it's him who writes the script...... What a pity! ”

After tasting the sweetness, it is difficult for people to give up the benefits that they can see.

Especially like the Forbidden City, just one "Hurricane Rescue 2" won a billion dollars at the global box office, how many times can this kind of good thing happen? Not to mention the success of other companies also proves one point, that is, Lao Bai's movies never lose money, just how much money can be made!

"No, of course you can't give up."

After listening to his subordinates' words, Fang Lanshen's eyes suddenly flickered, and the corners of his mouth curved a small arc: "There is another way, that is, to find another company to cooperate, the kind that can reduce risks and control the right to speak!" ”

“……”

Regarding Fang Lanshen's thoughts, his subordinates could only remain silent.

Is there such a fool?

As if hearing the other party's heart, Fang Lanshen suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, there is!" ”
