Lu Ping'an is aiming at "Pacific Rim".

Mecha vs. Monster movie.

There have been many such themes for a long time.

Neon even has a comic book of the same name, and it came out in 1990.

But the film was originally created by Hollywood screenwriter Travis, who conceived the central elements of the story on the California coastline of the Pacific Rim.

This movie is still quite good, and there are many fans around the world.

The plot of the movie itself is also good, the visual effects are also very strong, and the sense of oppression of the giant is very explosive.

Monster mecha movie, isn't that what you watch?

If you use 3DIMAX and top-notch sound, it will be cool in this era.

Compared with the 3D test of "Wonderful Night", "Pacific Rim" is a small nuclear bomb.

Of course, there must be a certain gap with the visual effects of "Avatar".

But that's also the original film.

Now that Lu Ping'an is doing it, many scenes can be upgraded.

In a word: on the premise of ensuring the coolness of the plot, the visual effects are full.

I believe that the mainland box office will not be bad at that time.

From an economic point of view.

Actually, this movie is not a good choice.

The original movie was released in 2013, when the film invested as much as 190 million US dollars, with a global box office of more than 400 million, of which the local box office in North America was only more than 100 million, and the income did not even exceed the capital.

Strictly speaking, according to this data, it is risky to choose this movie.

After all, the domestic box office is not large now, and it cannot reach the box office performance of 120 million US dollars in the mainland, so it will be a loss.

But Lu Ping'an has a big advantage.

Special effects, filming technology, etc., can greatly reduce the cost.

In addition, if the movie is released before 06, it will also have a great "futuristic" advantage.

The audience will buy it even more.

Again, the current volume of Yilu Ping'an.

He is no longer just making a fuss about commercial films.

Technology, copyright, peripherals, advertising, distribution, etc., are all profit points.

In addition, the film can also officially try to co-produce with China and the United States.

This is in preparation for better access to the North American market as well as international markets.

Not only that, but this film can also be used to sample those so-called co-productions in the future.

Let them see how the co-production should be filmed.

The above are the main reasons why Lu Ping'an chose "Pacific Rim".

In fact, he had another bold idea.

That is to engage in a wave of linkage development.

The original space-time "Pacific Rim 2" is not very good, which ruined the series to a certain extent.

Lu Ping'an was thinking, since the first part was filmed, "Pacific Rim 2" must be changed if it is to be filmed, so can it simply come to a big wave.

Like, I mean for example.

For example, "Pacific Rim 1" tells the story of a parallel universe "breakthrough point" in the depths of the ocean floor in the Pacific Rim, and then a huge giant monster creature rises from the "ocean".

According to the chronicles of the original Pacific Rim, this monster came to Earth as early as 200 million years ago, and at that time gave up its invasion because the Earth's environment was not suitable for the survival of the "pioneers".

When the earth entered the industrialized society of human beings, the environment changed greatly, and the "pioneers" found that the opportunity had come, and then there was the story of "Pacific Rim 1".

But what if the "pioneers" fled the Earth 200 million years ago?

For example, the overlord of the earth at that time was a monster that looked like a snake.

The Chinese civilization called it: Dragon.

After driving out the "pioneers", the dragon has become a mythical fantasy creature over the years.

Until the "Pioneer" reappeared, the humans used the mecha to fight the Pioneer.

The wormhole is destroyed by the protagonist, and humanity finally eliminates the hidden danger and ushers in peace.

Eventually, the mecha technology was sealed, and many years later, the evil organization used the corpse genes of the "Pioneer" to combine with the life of the earth, and finally synthesized a substance called the "God Gene", and used it to create a biological weapon that was stronger than the alien "Pioneer".

But this creature is not controlled by humans, and the moment it is born, the monsters are out of control.

One of the creatures rushed to the Mariana Trench, and the ancient creature "Dragon" was awakened, and the weakened "Dragon" took the opportunity to devour the creature, obtain the god gene, and recover.

But if you want to get back to your peak, you have to keep hunting.

By the way, he also drove these miscellaneous pieces out of his own territory.

Just like hundreds of millions of years ago.

So the plot of the second part is the story of the "dragon" hunt.

Therefore, the plot of "Pacific Rim 2" can be seamlessly grafted with 2014's "Godzilla 1", a story of hunting and anti-hunting between an unknown giant and an artificial giant, the sense of oppression overflows the screen, and the sense of insignificance of human beings in the face of this mysterious power must be very textured.

Later, "Pacific Rim 3" can be recombined with the plot of "Godzilla 2, King of the Monsters".

The dragon defeated the opponent, but at the beginning, dozens of new man-made monsters that were out of control were also devouring each other, and finally a dozen monsters more powerful than the original appeared, and these monsters, under the rule of an ancient alien creature, challenged the dragon, as the lord of the earth, began another round of hunting.

In the end, the dragon completes its evolution again with the help of righteous humans, or rather, completes further "atavism" and eventually becomes the king of monsters.

In the next movie, the dragon defeated more enemies, absorbed more genes, and the real dragon in myths and legends called the wind and rain and drove the clouds, returned

。。。。。。

This is just an idea, and it has not yet been adapted.

If you really want to adapt, you may not use "dragon", and the strange beasts in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" may be more suitable.

In terms of plot, on the basis of copying "Godzilla 1" and "Godzilla 2: King of Monsters", it can also incorporate the characteristics of more excellent monster movies.

In short, if you really want to shoot, it's not that early, and you don't have to shoot it.

There are more excellent movies, but they can't be found, so there is no need to be original so early.

So the task now is to set up the "Pacific Rim 1" project first.

And this kind of commercial blockbuster involving big special effects, big peripherals, and big industry, the preparation is not so simple.

Fortunately, Xingchen Film and Television is currently strong and experienced.

The screenwriter group of 7 made a small 100,000 yuan per capita after "Wonderful Night", and they can supplement Lu Ping'an's whimsical script more closely with the rhythm.

In addition to the general plot of "Pacific Rim" this time, "Wonderful Night 2" will also begin to enter the adaptation stage, which is to prepare for the future.

The rest of the team also knew how to run the film industry more rationally.

Many of them followed Lu Ping'an to Hollywood for further study, and when they do these things, it can be said that they are now the number one team in the whole of Asia.

Give them enough time and treatment, and there will be no big problem.

"Got it, right?"

Five or six hours later, Lu Ping'an and the management, who had finished the project meeting, asked.

"Understood."

The management of each department was excited and dismissed the meeting and began to work.

"Pacific Rim 1", the countdown begins.

The preparation and production of the film is initially expected to take at least half a year.

When it is released, it will be at least next year.

This is perfectly acceptable.

Even, the later the time, the more advantageous.

Give the mainland ticket warehouse a little time to grow, don't worry.
