"If nothing else, The Matrix will be released next summer."

Sun Peng did not hide the temptation of several bigwigs, and said with a smile: "Actually, if you rush it, there should be no problem with the release of the New Year file at the end of the year, but you also know that it takes time to do special effects, so it is a good choice to put it next summer...... And I think it's interesting to be able to compete with Steve and Michael. ”

"Haha, "The Sixth Sense" will be released this summer, and my competitors are you and Michael."

Hearing Sun Peng say this, Liang Ren couldn't help but quip.

Michael? Pete and Steve? Lucas's sci-fi blockbuster is coming out next summer, but the superstar also has an action movie "The Outlaws" released this summer — an action movie with the same name as a blockbuster on Earth, but with completely different plots. If you go by the release date, the release date of The Sixth Sense is in early July, and "The Outlaw" is exactly two weeks after the release of "The Sixth Sense", so of course the two can be regarded as a competitive relationship.

It's just that for Liang Ren's statement, Michael? Pete was a little curious: "I know that the schedules of "The Sixth Sense" and "The End of the World" are similar, but you say that you are also in competition with him, what do you mean?" ”

Glancing at Sun Peng, Michael Pitt was a little puzzled.

Looking at Steve next to him? Lucas also seemed a little puzzled, and Liang Ren said with a smile: "Because at the end of July, there is still a "Bourne's Identity 2" released, which is also the script he wrote!" But Bourne's first film didn't do well at the box office in the United States, so you might not be too concerned. ”

"Byrne's Identity 2?!"

Michael? Pete frowned, and a look of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

That's right, this Chinese spy movie didn't do well at the box office in the United States, especially for a character of his level, and the total box office of less than $20 million in North America is a fiasco. But as a professional filmmaker, Michael? How could Pete not see the beauty of this movie? And since it landed on the online platform in the United States, the number of viewers and ratings of this movie are not low!

What will be the results of the sequel to such a movie?

Even the most experienced director Lucas has no way to judge, because if the quality of the second part is average, perhaps repeating the box office trajectory of the first part is a high probability event; But if the quality of the second part catches up with the first part, it doesn't seem impossible to double it or triple it.

Just in Michael? When Pete frowned secretly, Sun Peng smiled and said: "Brother Liang is not right, obviously "The Sixth Sense" is also a script written by me, how can it be said that it is in competition with "Bourne's Identity 2"?" And the difference in time between their releases is a month! ”

Listen to Sun Peng say this, Michael? The corners of Pete's mouth twitched wildly.

If these two movies are not in competition, what is "The Outlaw", which happens to be sandwiched between them on the release date? And if "The Sixth Sense" is a completely different type of movie, then "Bourne's Identity" also happens to be the genre of "Outlaws", which is a 100% crash! may have an absolute advantage in "The End of the World" in the United States, but when it comes to China......

Just in Michael? When Pete was worried about his new movie, Liang Ren himself was thinking more.

In fact, when "Frozen" won three consecutive weekly box office championships in the United States, and the total box office exceeded 300 million US dollars, Liang Ren began to pay attention to Sun Peng - of course, it is not that Liang Ren did not pay attention to Lao Bai before, but that kind of attention is not at the same level as now.

And when the North American box office of "Frozen" exceeded $360 million, this attention was raised to a new level!

Then the big brother in the Chinese film industry knows a lot of things, and he also knows what this old white will stir up in the film field in the future: this summer there is "Bourne's Identity 2" and "The Sixth Sense", at the end of the year there is "Hurricane Rescue 2 - True Lies", and next summer there will be a "Matrix" and a second animation with the Japanese; As for the end of next year or the summer of the year after that, maybe "The Lion King" and the new film directed by Lao Bai himself will be released......

Whenever he thinks of this series of movies, Liang Ren always can't help but take a long breath of cold air.

The number of movies is not a big problem, and the average number of three movies a year is not particularly exaggerated, but if you calculate the shooting cost of these movies, you will find that Liang Ren's own "Sixth Sense" is at most at a medium level, which is too far from "The Matrix" or "The Lion King" or something!

"Actually, I'm more interested in Sun's soundtrack!"

It was at this time that the big directors who had no competition with them this summer spoke, Steve? Lucas looked at Sun Peng and smiled: "Especially when he was shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Original Song, I know that I regret not being able to work with Sun before......"

When he said these words, Lucas's eyes also flashed violently.

He doesn't really value Sun Peng's soundtrack strength, after all, the musicians invited by him are Hollywood soundtrack masters, and it is impossible to be worse than Sun Peng. It's just that as a commercial director, Lucas also knows that if the other party really wins the Best Original Song Award this time, then it will be a good gimmick when promoting the movie in the future, at least in the big market in China.

Liang Ren also thought deeply about this, and nodded with a smile: "Indeed, he just won the Grammy Award for Best Production!" To be honest, I'm already looking forward to Luo Cheng Luo's new album this summer! ”

Listening to the two of them say this, even Michael? Pete also narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled: "If you say that, should I regret not taking that "The Matrix"?" Haha......"

Laughing and laughing, Michael? Pete's brain suddenly opened up, and his eyes lit up and said, "By the way, maybe the four of us can collaborate on a movie in the future, it will definitely be very interesting, right?" ”

"The four of us? A movie? ”

The other three were stunned by the proposal, and then they were all happy.

As good as it sounds, this suggestion is simply cool.

two Americans, one is one of the three major Hollywood directors, and the other is one of the only few super-first-line actors; Two Chinese people, one is the big brother in the film industry, and the other is a guy who can almost be equal to everyone else with the script and soundtrack, what if these four people collaborate on a movie?

If you think about it with your thighs, it's going to be a super big production!

It's a pity that the question is......

Let's not talk about the wishes of the four people, which film company can afford such a lineup?

Let's not talk about Michael? Pitt and Liang Ren's base salary starts at least $20 million, Steve? Which is a fuel-efficient lamp again, Lucas or Lao Bai? Not to mention that with the current status of the four of them, the box office share starts at ten points, and there are also peripheral dividends or something, if they really get together to make a movie......

The film company pays for it, and then gives them a job for nothing?

Michael? Pete thought of this right away, so he quickly laughed too, shook his head and laughed, "Well, it's just a joke, or a good idea that will never come to fruition......"
