Wu Yuan's meeting to return to China lasted for a long time, and it lasted for an afternoon.

It wasn't until around five o'clock in the afternoon that the meeting finally ended.

He talked a lot about the meeting with the company's executives.

Mainly, he's saying that executives are taking notes.

It is related to the company's corporate strategy in the next five or ten years, and it cannot be ignored.

Fortunately, Wu Yuan's only fortunate thing is that this is just the company's strategy, not his personal future plan.

Yes, the layout of the cinematic universe in the era of light and shadow has nothing to do with him.

He has no interest in spending the next five or ten years in this commercial cinematic universe project.

The company's strategy has nothing to do with his personal career planning.

Maybe he will use his fame to make a film when this commercial movie universe is just starting, but at most he will help make a film when it starts.

His own main energy is still to be put on the Hollywood side, in the European and American markets, to maintain his international influence, awards and box office with both hands.

To put it mildly, the domestic market really can't tolerate the dragon of Wu Yuan.

At least in the next five years, it is still impossible for a single film to have a box office of 3 billion or 4 billion.

If Wu Yuan wants to maximize his profits, he still has to maintain the rhythm of one Chinese commercial film every two years.

And this kind of cinematic universe is indeed not something that can be done by one director, and it requires multiple directors to relay together.

Fortunately, the light and shadow era has developed in recent years, and the number of directors under it has also increased.

Before, at the end of the meeting, Wu Yuan also mentioned that the company would continue to run the second phase of new director support, and then support a group of new directors.

Among the first batch of newcomer directors supported by the company, there are three good seedlings, and we must continue to dig hard.

Of course, the company's shooting plan for this year was also set at the meeting.

Zhang Guorong will be transferred to the company's cinematic universe program as the director of the first film "Shushan" in the first phase.

The IP of "Shushan" is the most familiar to Hong Kong Island people, after all, Hong Kong Island is the first place to play this IP, and Xu Ke's "Shushan" is also a classic in the hearts of a generation.

At the same time, Liu Meichuan, who is responsible for the filming of the "Soul Ferry" series of TV series, will also be brought up to prepare for the filming of the "Soul Ferry" movie.

This film is also a derivative part of the cinematic universe of the Age of Light and Shadow, and will tell the story of the underworld around the Tang Dynasty.

In Zhao Yi's previous life, a noble monk from the Tang Dynasty was nameless, and he spent many ghosts in troubled times.

However, he has a special female ghost that cannot be surpassed no matter what.

In desperation, he temporarily stored her in the guqin he carried with him.

With the passage of time, the guqin gradually became spiritual due to the influence of Buddhist scriptures, and became one with the female ghost.

In order to recover his Aigean, Nameless cultivated to the realm of transforming into a god, and confronted the Hades in Huangquan.

In the end, at the cost of splitting in two, he turned into Zhao Yan in the flesh, and his soul became a white peony, continuing his journey of reincarnation.

And Nameless's identity in his previous life, that is, Zhao Yan's previous life, was Nameless.

This big movie can be regarded as an explanation of Zhao Yan's past, and by the way, it has raised the background ceiling of "Soul Ferry".

Originally, this TV series can only be regarded as an urban daily fan, although there are ghosts, monsters and the like, but the combat effectiveness is not strong, more about social issues and human nature than fighting.

But through this film, "Soul Ferry" has been introduced into a larger worldview, no longer just a side story about how magnificent the human world was in the past.

Zhao Yan was unknown in his previous life, not only was he a monk with profound Buddhism, but he was also a friend of a certain sword cultivator in Shushan, and he had also visited the famous rivers and mountains, and even met real immortals.

It was also under the guidance of the immortals that he learned about the underworld and came to find the Hades.

Similarly, in the movie script, the Hades Chacha is also involved in the struggle between the ancient human race and the immortal race, and pulls out the birthplace of the immortal race "Kunlun".

As a starting film in the first stage, it is undoubtedly just right to start with the big movie "Soul Ferry" and go deep into the background.

It just so happened that in the setting of the screenwriting department of the Light and Shadow Era, the Tang Dynasty in the movie universe was already at the end of the mythological era, and after the Tang Dynasty, immortals, gods, demons, demons, and monsters gradually ceased to appear in front of people.

This involves the major event that will be filmed in the future, the story of the redivision of heaven and earth in the last years of the Tang Dynasty.

It was also after this major event that the earth became the earth where the miracles were now broken, and it was not until the modern society that the demon world was broken and the immortal gods were born again.

The big movie "Soul Ferry" tells the story of the Tang Dynasty, an era when the immortals were not broken.

In addition, the movie "Shushan", as well as 2-3 movies in the future, will build an extraordinary world from the Han to the Tang Dynasty.

In the end, the people who appeared in these movies gathered in modern times and started the first big event - "Modern Demon World Breaking".

Then the 6th-10th films continue to tell the history of the past, leading to the second major event - "The Redivision of Heaven and Earth at the End of the Tang Dynasty".

At least in the next ten years, the age of light and shadow wants to tell this movie universe, and it can be regarded as busy.

Among them, it is estimated that only the first big movie in the cinematic universe, that is, the story of the modern period, when the sealed demon world was broken, and the immortal gods and hidden immortal cultivation organizations and sects returned to heaven and earth to fight against demons, may be filmed by Wu Yuan himself.

After all, this kind of major event, similar to "Avengers 1", is still very important, and letting Wu Yuan direct it himself can ensure that it attracts enough audiences to the cinema to watch it and lay the foundation for the cinematic universe in the age of light and shadow.

For other side films, just let the company's directors shoot them.

If everything goes well, it is estimated that Wu Yuan will not be able to make this movie until around 2014, and there is no hurry.

In the evening, at half past six in the afternoon, Wu Yuan, who was holding on to his spirits, finally returned home.

"Why did it take so long to have a meeting?" Liu Yifei, who had arrived home a long time ago and made up for sleep, said with some distress.

She quickly took off Wu Yuan's blazer, pulled him to the bedroom, and said, "I haven't rested well on the plane, now hurry up and take a shower and sleep first." ”

"I don't think there's anything to do for the time being, right?"

"Isn't "Interstellar" scheduled for August, there are still four or five months, you should be able to rest in these four or five months."

In the past year or so, Wu Yuan has been busy with the work of "Interstellar", and everyone has lost ten pounds.

Although she never said it, Liu Yifei still felt sorry for her boyfriend.

This kind of IMAX 3D movie, which no one has ever done before, is not easy to do, although Wu Yuan has experience and will not do it for ten years like Cameron, but this time doing "Interstellar" is also his hardest film director.

"Probably nothing." Wu Yuan lowered his head and put his head on Liu Yifei's shoulder, and said in a coquettish tone that he had never thought of: "Next, I will accompany you well~" (end of this chapter)
