Hollywood legendary director

Chapter 725 Small Studio (seeking subscription, tickets)

France is the origin of movies.

In the early days, filmmakers all over Europe wanted to come to France to study film, but unfortunately they couldn't keep up with the times and the audience market, and gradually declined.

But it is undeniable that there is still a certain amount of background here.

The more intuitive effect is that French films always carry a literary taste, and even the audience’s appreciation of the film is not always a matter of pure cost.

Whether there is a big scene, whether there is any refreshment, or climax, I don’t care much.

Just look at the past French box office hits.

In addition to Hollywood blockbusters that are more appetizing for the audience, there is no shortage of less formal movies.

In other words, well-made literary and artistic movies have a great market in France, such as "Angels Love the Beauty", "Two Little Guessing", "The Spring of Cow Herding Class", which basically cannot sell at the box office in other places, but they are Often dominate the box office charts, once crushing Hollywood movies in the same period.

The same goes for "Untouchable".

Without excessive and in-depth interpretation, the audience voted with their feet to put this high-quality film on the top of the list.

Ninety-nine percent of people who have seen it feel good, which affects more people who haven't seen it.

Moreover, the audience's evaluation in the viewing survey is also very interesting——

Some praised the soundtrack, saying that it is full of aesthetics with the lens;

Some praised the plot, said it was very lifelike, and looked relaxed;

It is also said that in the movie, Derris and Philip are very yearning for the year-long friendship.

......

In short, movies are interesting, can meet the needs of watching movies, and relieve mental pressure. Why don't you watch such movies? You should watch them a few more times...

Europa Pictures Building.

Luc Besson got up early in the morning in a good mood.

Last night, market data on the first day of the release of "Untouchable" also came out.

Luc Besson enjoys the long list of online seat statistics and audience reputation.

Of course, it would be even better if this movie were independently produced by our own studio...

In the office.

Luc Besson held the report in his hand, and opposite him sat a middle-aged white man—his partner Pierre.

Pierre is regarded as the second biggest hero of Europa Pictures to this day.

At the beginning, he had contributed a lot to the successful establishment of Europa Pictures and the production of the company's first independent film.

Moreover, without him, Luc Besson would not have thought of going out alone.

It can be said that Luc Besson only dreamed of being a director and a director recognized by the audience. After slowly making his way into the circle, he only wanted to make better movies and make better movies.

It wasn't until Pierre found him and brought in a few more gold masters that Europa Pictures was established.

Under this situation, the company has slowly become a climate...

Sometimes the thing of vision is useless, but sometimes it can bring earth-shaking changes.

When Luc Besson no longer views the film market as a director, his shooting philosophy is slowly changing.

Who knows that he was praised as a new wave director before.

But now, he is often criticized by the seniors in the circle as too mundane, and he wants to get into the eyes of money...

But he is still a director in his bones.

Therefore, his studio is extremely courteous to directors, especially new directors, and even takes the initiative to help-this guy often writes scripts for other directors in order to cultivate a few more talents.

But today, what he wants to discuss with his old friend Pierre is the release of "Untouchable".

Last night, the three studios received accurate market information-"Untouchable" received 39.8 million euros on the first day of the show, which is the best French film premiering this year.

"His appeal is still strong, and the film can be made by most audiences."

Luc Besson looked at Pierre and sighed.

Of course, the sourness in the words was automatically filtered by Pierre.

After all, such an achievement is too exciting for a director.Who doesn't want to have such outstanding results in films made by himself?Not to mention the reputation is good, the audience rating is not low.

"What did Gao Meng and EMI say?" Pierre turned off the subject.

"Of course it's an extra screening. There must be room for such a box office. Rather than release those old movies, it's better to make room for "Untouchable."

The results of the first day were released.

The top executives of the three studios can understand the current market situation just by looking at the data-they are once again outstanding.

"It looks higher than the box office of "Old Nowhere"."

"Yes, who would have thought that a daily story about two men helping each other and influencing each other could have such a market. For the audience, I don't understand it. I originally thought it might be better than "Old Nowhere" It's a little bit worse, but there is also a profit. I didn't expect the potential to be so great."

Pierre listened, his eyebrows twitched slightly, not knowing what he thought of.

......

Lehman also learned about the first day of the film's box office from many sources.

My heart was agitated a little bit, and soon calmed down.

He is no longer a director who can't sleep happily because of the big sales of a movie.

Moreover, after the release of "Untouchable", it can only be said that it has met the expected standard.

Compared with others, the trend of this movie is still within Lehman's understanding.

After all, the original space-time broke the record of "Titanic" in France, and easily became the annual box office champion of that year.

In other words, the film transcends race, the friendship and understanding between the rich and the poor, the salvation of the two hearts, and the strong affection, it is easy to arouse strong resonance among French audiences.

After the film was released, many newspapers also commented like this——

"This movie will make you laugh out loud, and it can also make you cry, without wasting a second."-"Sunday Daily"

"This is a movie that is very popular with the public. Of course, the cast lineup led by Director Lyman has greatly contributed to the success of the film."-"Cross"

"Untouchable" is a jubilant and profound film. It has been a long time since I saw such a high-quality French local drama film."-"Le Figaro"

......

The mainstream media’s appraisal is quite positive, as well as the positive publicity of the film critics. It seems that it is not a difficult thing to make an excellent film far exceed the box office of other films.

In the final analysis, the audience recognizes the quality of "Untouchable".

By the next day, 26.65 million euros were credited, which once again proved that the film's screening is still strong.

It's just that the box office of "Untouchable" should be released first, and now Lehmann is going to the suburbs of Paris to prepare to acquire an animation studio.

Yesterday, Mai Lei Dan De Rui called, that is to say.

Moreover, the owner of that studio knew that it was Firefly's acquisition, so instead of raising money first, he wanted to meet Lehman.

Because that person behaves like a personal fan of Lyman on the phone, even though he is an anime...

But this is not a conflict, does it, everyone has someone they like or admire.

For this reason, Lehmann wanted to settle the matter before officially leaving France.

After arriving, Lehman also had to feel the importance of finding a manager who was very familiar with the animation industry.

In such a remote place, if you haven't dealt with it, who would believe that this area is less than 100 square meters, there are only 6 people, the owner is both an investor and a small studio of an artist who has taken over many Hollywood animation projects outsourcing orders, and Work results have always been good.

When Lehman entered, he looked around and found that it was indeed a small workshop. It was estimated that he did not have the financial strength to independently produce animation. Also, because he stayed in Paris, he usually received MV or advertising animation to maintain his business.

This is what the owner of the studio said.

What I learned is animation production. After graduation, I asked my family for a sum of money before opening this studio. Several years have passed, and the scale has not been large.

Because outsourcing is troublesome and not profitable...

Lehman took a few movie posters or postcards to help sign them.

He still rarely meets fans asking him to sign, and he is still a group of working otakus, and his hobbies are games and movies.

However, dealing with these people is much easier.

When Lehman was sure that they would help solve the accommodation problem after they moved to Burbank, they agreed...

As for the wages, there is no bargaining, I guess I believe that Lehman will not cheat them, this is...

It seems that the help brought by fame is quite big.Lehman's inner feelings.
