Chapter 719: Aquaman

"Xu, it's not that I don't want to agree to your request, it's that I don't have this power, even if I'm the president of Warner, do you understand what I mean? There are other directors of the group, and they will not allow me to compromise the interests of the group to the benefit of outsiders. Kevin said helplessly.

Xu Jia couldn't tell whether the other party was pretending to be helpless or really helpless, but the easiest way to deal with this kind of old fox was that you beat me and I beat mine.

He said with a straight face: "This is not negotiable, the domestic box office of "Megalodon" has at least surpassed your North American home, and even almost reached the same level as the global box office except for China, you tell me this kind of result, do you think it is sacrificing the interests of the group?" Then I will withdraw from this project, you can fulfill yourself, don't come to fulfill me as an outsider. ”

These Hollywood guys are all blood-sucking mosquitoes, eating all over their stomachs, and they feel that others are robbing them of their food.

As everyone knows, without themselves, they can't even suck blood.

"Wait, you're too anxious, I didn't say it couldn't be done, but we can consider a different method of cooperation, such as how about changing to a two-male protagonist mode? Changed to Jason and Wu Jing, the latter is not very popular in Huaxia, and he is also from your Jiaxing. Kevin suggested.

Xu Jia shook his head, in his previous life, "Megalodon 2" was co-starred by Wu Jing and Jason.

In fact, the domestic box office is average, and the overseas box office is okay, but the setting of the two male protagonists has also been tampered with by these guys to become a single male protagonist, and even the poster has been changed to Jason alone.

The most important thing is that this series is an important channel for Xu Jia to Yang Mi to promote internationally, and if this project is lost, others will only think that Jia Xing will not work.

Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "This doesn't have to be changed, I think Jason can be replaced by other actors, it's really not good, I can also find someone else to cooperate, I think Robert of Di Sheni is very willing to cooperate with me Megalodon, Megalodon, no matter what it is, I believe he will be interested in the Chinese film market." ”

Hearing Xu Jia threaten to find Robert Dishini, Kevin immediately raised his hands and made a surrender: "Okay, listen to you, just follow Yang Mi and Jason's dual-protagonist model and don't change, let's talk about something else." ”

It's not that his knees are weak, it's that he knows too well the temperament of Robert, the president of Disheni, who can't wait to have a quarrel with Xu Jia himself, so that he can take advantage of the weakness.

Maybe Robert didn't look down on Jiaxing before, but as long as he saw that Warner had gained some benefits in the cooperation with Jiaxing, he would rather pay a lot of money to grab it, and what was in other people's bowls was always the most fragrant.

"Something else? Like what. Xu Jia raised his eyebrows.

"For example, we can start a new project, and it's enough for this Megalodon series to go on step by step, and we're fully able to focus on the new series, and if you have a project that you like, we'll work together to develop and produce it." Kevin said.

He doesn't care how the other party's rumored accurate vision comes from, but there is no shortage of superstitious lucky people in the entertainment industry, and there are always some favorites who can be favored by Lady Luck, and they have been on the road to success smoothly.

is like some actors, the movies they starred in, if they were played by others, it would be easy to hit the street, and if they were replaced by themselves, they would be quite loved by the audience, and this kind of audience fate is something that cannot be explained.

And what Kevin has to do is to be on the side of the lucky darlings and succeed together.

Xu Jia has always had a draft in mind about Kevin's proposal, after all, there are still many treasures that have not been excavated or are about to be excavated in the copyrights accumulated by Warner over the years.

He rubbed his chin and muttered for a long time before he spoke with Kevin's expectant gaze: "If you want to talk about the project you like, I really have one, the Marvel superhero series is not very popular in China now, we can work together to develop a DC Comics superhero." ”

In fact, since the explosion of the Marvel superhero series, the craze for adapting comics has long swept the global film and television industry.

"It's not that we haven't thought about it, it's just that the development potential of DC Comics is not satisfactory, and so far, only the two series of Batman and Superman have been successful, and the others are as good as ever." Kevin sighed.

If outsiders see it, they must not believe that their president will show such a down-to-earth appearance, it is because the level difference between the two sides is too far, in front of Xu Jia, a partner, Kevin seems to be much more relaxed, and some emotions hidden in his heart dare to be revealed.

In front of his subordinates, he has to behave toughly, in front of the directors, he has to behave confidently, and only in front of Xu Jia, who is also a partner and a friend, can he take off his mask.

"If someone else does a street fight, it doesn't mean that we will hit the street, if I remember correctly, the copyright of "Aquaman" should be in the hands of you Warners, whether you are interested in cooperating with it, it will be regarded as the first project launched by our streaming company." The corners of Xu Jia's mouth went up.

"Aquaman" is one of the few DC Comics superheroes who can take off.

Although it does not have the huge popularity of Batman and Superman, and it is only second-rate among many DC heroes, with its excellent plot and special effects, it has performed well in the global film market in its previous life.

He took a fancy to this copyright very early, and the reason why he never opened his mouth was because Jiaxing lacked a foundation, and even if he proposed cooperation, he would only be stolen and the fruits of success would be stolen.

"Aquaman? Why did you choose this story? ”

Kevin frowned slightly, they also have internal voices to produce for the copyright of "Aquaman", but they are not valued by the group, first, this hero is not very popular, and second, the previously developed "Justice League" DC adaptation of the movie failed too badly, which made them hesitate about the DC comic adaptation.

"The background of this story is more innovative than other superheroes, the plot of the city is basically written by Marvel, and they have even expanded their territory to the universe, why don't we change our thinking, from land to sea, to give the audience a new and surprising viewing experience."

Xu Jia is full of nonsense, in fact, the explosion of "Aquaman" is due to the ability of its director, who made such a superhero movie so smooth, and this director is also the object of his ambition to woo, "Director, I recommend Wen Ziren, I have seen the style of movies he has directed, and he can often surprise the film from an unexpected direction." ”
