Chapter 694: A Stepping Stone to Europe and the United States (Happy Lantern Festival)

Putting aside all kinds of stereotypes, the story of the movie "Sheep's Eyebrows" is actually quite family-friendly, and the atmosphere is very strong.

It's just 3D......

It's not that Gu Miao doesn't trust Ma Kui, he just simply suspects, if the money is spent, can he reap the results he deserves?

All right!

He still thinks that it is better for Ma Kui to hand over the 3D production part of "Sheep Eyebrows" to Dimension Studios.

For this reason, he is even willing to delay the production plan of "Bear Infested" to make way for the movie "Sheep's Eyebrows" project.

"It won't be too late."

said that it was considered for consideration, but Ma Kui's idea was very firm, that is, unless the production of the "Super Beast Armament" project was stopped, Dimension Studio would not be able to catch up with the Spring Festival stalls at all.

This is the end of the topic.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Gu Miao couldn't say anything more, after all, the "Spring Festival file" is still a very important schedule for the movie "Sheep Eyebrows".

"Okay, you can make up your own mind."

"Having said that, don't you have the best relationship with Du Hao? Do you know what he's been busy with lately? ”

】

Gu Miao, who hadn't seen anyone else for a few days, said suspiciously: "I found that this guy's whereabouts are quite suspicious after he came back from Haolaiwu!" ”

"He'......"

"He has a hot fight with Haitian Film and Television, and it's normal not to go back to the company, after all, he has nothing to do when he comes back." Ma Kui said with a smile.

That's true.

Du Hao is basically that kind of marginal role in Wanbao Animation, or the entire Wanbao Group, and few projects fall on him.

So whether he comes to the company or not, it makes no difference to everyone else.

Gu Miao can understand this situation, but he can't accept it, Du Hao has a hot fight with Haitian Film and Television, and cuckolds him.

It must be discouraged.

This is all married to Wanbao, and he goes out with other men all day long, and the relationship is unclear, which husband can stand it?

Gu Miao was very angry.

After sending Ma Kui and Huang Kun away, and returning to his office, he immediately dialed Du Hao's phone and called him back.

"What's the matter with me?"

"Are you embarrassed to ask? Do you know what courtesy, righteousness and shame are? ”

Gu Miao came up and scolded: "Are you Wanbao's person, or are you an undercover agent sent by Haitian to Wanbao?" Receiving my wages and going to volunteer for others all day long? ”

"Mr. Gu, don't be embarrassed!"

"How can I call it voluntary labor? I obviously studied abroad and went to a friend to visit the filming scene. ”

Du Hao shouted: "Haitian provides me with lunch and dinner for free, and sometimes pulls me to have dinner and drink together, isn't this intruding into the enemy and causing him to fall?" ”

There are a lot of fallacies and heresies!

Gu Miao, who was too lazy to have anything to do with this thing, rubbed her eyebrows and asked, "Okay, I won't talk to you." You can't stay in the company, aren't you too idle? ”

"I'll find you something to do......"

After saying this, Gu Miao picked up a thick document from the table, handed it to Du Hao and said, "Your favorite movie project, how about taking a look?" Are you confident that you can shoot well? ”

"The Lion King?"

Du Hao took this plan and asked confusedly, "How did you come up with this name?" Is there only an outline? ”

"The name doesn't matter."

Gu Miao shook her head and said, "Have you ever seen the drama "Hamlet"? Shakespeare's classic tragedy. ”

"I've seen ......"

"That's fine, you can simply understand the background of the story as the revenge of the prince of Hamlet, which is personified by cartoon animals." Gu Miao explained.

"The Prince's Revenge?"

The corners of Du Hao's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but complain: "This story template is inevitably too ...... It's corny! This fairy tale style of the last century, will anyone really like it? ”

Come on!

It's the 21st century, can you create a new and bold theme? Did he travel back to the last century, and put aside the prince's revenge?

"Corny?"

Gu Miao smiled and said disapprovingly at this complaint: "I admit that the prince's revenge is indeed a bit clichΓ©, but have you ever thought that the reason why a classic is a classic is precisely because this kind of plot is never tired of watching?" ”

Here's an example.

"Heroes save beauty, beautiful women fall in love" This routine is not dirty? Very earthy!

But it is precisely such an earthy story that is still used and paid tribute to by many networks, animations, comics and even movies today.

Why do some people love to watch it? I even know it's earthy, but I watch it with relish every time?

"Don't speculate on the preferences of the public based on your own preferences."

Gu Miao said earnestly: "I thought everyone was drunk and I was sober, but in fact, in the eyes of everyone, you are a fool!" ”

The audience likes, how old are you?

Du Hao made one of the most classic mistakes, that is, he was self-centered and regarded himself too seriously.

That's right!

The story of Hamlet's "Prince's Revenge" is indeed very old-fashioned now.

But if you don't like it alone, does that mean that all the audience doesn't like it?

This may not be very popular in China, but in Western countries, this kind of "prince's revenge" story still has many people like, right?

"The West?"

Du Hao keenly grasped the key point, frowned and flipped through the plan in his hand, until he found that the protagonist in the play was actually called "Simba", and he realized it instantly.

This is a "non-Wanbao traditional" animated film that focuses on the European and American markets, and is even full of European and American cartoon elements!

"Do you want to break into the European and American markets?"

"Yes!"

Gu Miao did not hide his thoughts, and nodded decisively and admitted: "Wanbao has a big enough influence in East Asia, or the entire Asian region. ”

"But in Western countries, the influence of animation produced by Wanbao is generally one or two grades lower, and occasionally one or two works can be a small hit."

Gu Miao was very dissatisfied with it.

He believes that if Wanbao wants to become an animation giant with a "world-class" influence and works covering the global market, it cannot ignore the Western market.

"The Lion King" was born for exactly that.

It may not be the most suitable work, but it must be the most suitable stepping stone to "pry open" the door of the European and American markets.

Don't ask why.

The question is the revenge of the prince in "Hamlet", coupled with the values conveyed by the entire animation of The Lion King, which is definitely in line with the universal perception of the West.

Of course!

The reason why I chose animated movies instead of TV animation as a stepping stone is mainly because Wanbao has someone in Hollywood.

I can't say that there are people......

Because of the previous cooperation in the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" movie project, Wanbao and the giants of Hollywood are on the line.

With this relationship, the film project can completely pull them to play together, and the global distribution of the film will be contributed by the giants over there.

That's too robust!
