Hollywood legendary director

"Haha, let's say that James Wen is going to be a director? Or are you investing?"

That night, the two had dinner and sat on the bed, and Lehmann told about the recent incident.

Eva Green is still very happy. Although it feels a bit sudden to his inexplicable new status, think about it, after all, it is a good thing. The unbearable joy on her face can also tell her attitude.

"How can there be so many, I'm a name, really let me be a producer, that's catching the blind, it's okay internally, but externally dealing with third-party regulatory agencies like Allianz Insurance, I definitely can't, said There may be quarrels."

"Hahahaha..." Eva Green seemed very excited and overjoyed at the thought of such an interesting incident.

Actually, the directors hate that some people point fingers at their work, but the industry rules are placed there. If the third-party regulatory agency is not satisfied, it is really difficult to do this.

James Cameron is irritable and bad-tempered. Don't you have to bear it.

"Don't talk about it, let's do something serious." Seeing Eva Green laughed, her slender figure was exposed even if she was wearing clothes, Lehmann suddenly thought of an old saying:

A moment of spring night is worth a thousand dollars, the flowers are fragrant and the moon is cloudy.Don't live up to it.

Condemned by God.

"What's serious?" Seeing Lyman suddenly getting serious, Eva thought something was wrong.

"I haven't seen you for so long, you don't want to..."

Lehman said the next two words softly.

Just after speaking, Eva Green's face flushed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Of course, this was not because of her sudden shyness, but when Lehman said, gently bit her earlobe.

She is very sensitive there.

Don't be crooked.

...

Europa Pictures headquarters.

Luc Besson was smoking a cigar. After carefully reading the documents in his hand, he smiled and said: "I think the shooting plan written above mentioned that "Chain Saw" will be a series of movie projects. Director Lyman, can you elaborate a little bit more?"

"of course."

Lehman nodded, put down the coffee in his hand, and explained: "The main audience of this movie is the audience who loves bloody cult movies, and the settings of these movies are just enough to scratch their itches, plus There are a lot of large-scale lenses, which can also give them visual stimulation and increase their enthusiasm for watching movies. As long as the performance of the first film is good, subsequent development, and then continue to change the soup without changing the medicine, the audience acceptance will be also Not bad."

"Oh?" Luc Besson spit out a smoke ring and took a closer look, which was quite fresh.

"Mission: Impossible and "007", aren't they all like this? The audience will join whatever they like to watch. The soup will fly to the sky and be cool and handsome, and will always invite beautiful female stars. Joined Bond girls, this kind of continuity of the film is the essence of the film serialization. Can you imagine that "Mission Impossible" will have a different protagonist. Little plum will not work. Preconceived and stable factors are the king, right? "

"It seems that you have studied this very well." Luc Besson smiled.

"If you don't study it, don't you do the same in your life-death courier? You don't understand." Lehman said in a bad mood.

"Well, no kidding, Europa Pictures is very interested in this project, so..."

Just be interested, Lehman thought.

"The initial budget for this movie is about 8 million to 10 million. It leaves a lot of salary space for actors. As for other expenses, it is normal and reasonable. You see?"

"Well, of course I believe you, are you the producer of this movie?"

Therefore, Wen Ziren really has a sense of industry. Even if he is still a new director, he can't get any information and achievements, but Luc Besson is willing to invest because of his face.Perhaps he thought in his heart that Lehmann was responsible for this project.

Lehmann and Luc Besson looked at each other and smiled slightly: Could you just wait for your words?

How can it be done without the support of an issuing company?

And Europa Pictures is the most critical part of this.

Under the picture of the big pie, why bother that they don’t contribute their resources and channels?

Such a series of films will be a good development opportunity for Lehman himself and Mann Studio.

As long as it can keep the core aspects of "Chain Saw" as in the previous life, the studio will also have a facade pillar, and the serialization is quite stable.

Yes, that's right, Lehman intends to pull Wen Ziren into Mann's studio.Of course it is not France, but he intends to set up a film company in the United States. It is not a grass-roots team affiliated with Europa Pictures, but a real film studio with production capabilities.

As usual, the three companies will jointly fund the cooperation this time.

After all, it is impossible to discard the American market. In any case, for the distribution, there is no such thing as Paramount Pictures, nor can it enter the market, and there will be no filming or screening theaters.

As for why not find other people to cooperate, or simply go to Paramount Pictures and put aside Europa?There may be such doubts, but this idea is not desirable at all.

But if both parties had a demand for him, he would not have negotiated terms so easily. What's more, Europa Pictures is really well-measured and he is a French director.

Look at the revenue division of this movie.

Europa Pictures invested 2 million, accounting for 30% of the box office profit; Paramount Pictures invested 3 million, accounting for 35%; Mann Studios invested 4 million, accounting for the remaining 35%.

And Europa Pictures owns 50% of the film rights, Mann Studios are the same, Paramount Pictures does not account for a bit, but they own 40% of the offline income of movies within three years, Mann Studios In the same way, all the proceeds after three years have nothing to do with him.

That is to say, the long-term big head is in the hands of Europa, and the short-term income Paramount is more dominant, and the Mann studio has made the most investment, but it is not outstanding in these two items.

But, why did he not have any industry resources for realizing?

I can't make a movie, it's not going to be shown.

He should pay the money, and he should eat the losses.

In fact, it is fair to think about it, and compared with the previous, the conditions are more favorable, which is a good thing.

Besides, if "Chain Saw" doesn't have the strong support of two companies, maybe the box office will hit the street. Then all the plans look like a joke?

the above.
