"I heard that Mr. Joe is cooperating with me to make a fantasy adventure movie?" George Lucas asked Feng Qiao with interest in a hotel in Hollywood.

"Yes." Qiao Feng nodded.

"I don't know what kind of story it is?" George Lucas asked again.

He knows what Qiao Feng’s movie means, that’s a lot of profit. Just like his Lucasfilm, whether it’s the Star Wars trilogy or Indiana Jones (Indiana Jones), it means With huge box office and peripheral revenue. If there are no accidents, such a film is absolutely reluctant to find someone to cooperate, because no one is willing to distribute the profits to others.

Is it because Qiao Feng is not optimistic about the prospects of the film, so he wants to cooperate? George Lucas has such a worry. Not only for the above reasons, but also because Qiao Feng is talking about a fantasy, adventure film, according to He understands that there seems to be no fantasy soil in Hong Kong. Fantasy stories? The Legend of Swordsman in Hong Kong back then was made by the Industrial Light and Magic of Lucasfilm for the special effects team of Star Wars. So, he knew. What kind of box office is that new Shushan swordsman with special effects?

Does Qiao Feng want to make such a film? If that is the case, I better not cooperate with him, because if it is only shown in the East, it will not have a lot of box office, and it will not be attractive. If it is to be shown in Hollywood, then such a film will It is unlikely to be liked by North American audiences. The risk is too great.

Qiao Feng didn't know what George Lucas was thinking, and he didn't care. He smiled and said, "Peter Pan, is Mr. Lucas familiar with it?"

"Of course." George Lucas nodded.

Peter Pan is a long story written by Scottish writer and playwright James Matthew Barry. At the beginning, it was just a stage script written by James Matthew Barry called Peter Pan in Kensington Park. The stage play was big after the first performance. It was well received, and James Matthew Barry saw the prospect (Qian Jing), so he scripted it and published it in 1911.

Tell the story of Peter Pan, a naughty little boy who can fly and his adventures on Never Island.

The three children in Mr. Darling’s family couldn’t stand the temptation of the mysterious wild child Peter Pan flying in the air, and soon learned to fly. Taking advantage of their parents’ absence, they flew out the window overnight and flew to the strange "Neverland Island". ".There are ferocious beasts, "red men" from primitive tribes, terrible pirates, and of course fairies and mermaids.

In short, everything that often appears in children’s dreams and fantasy is here; therefore, there are hunting fights against beasts, there are real wars between celebrities and pirates or between children and pirates.The children were free from adults, unfettered, free, and under the leadership of Peter Pan, they handled everything by themselves, played happily, and went through all kinds of dangers.

But later, the children who ran away from home, especially the big sister Wendy, began to miss their mother. Under her mobilization, the children bid farewell to the "Neverland Island" that had brought them unlimited joy and flew back. At home.Later they both grew up to become adults.Only Peter Pan never grows up and never goes home. He always flies outside, taking generations of children away from the family and letting them go to "Neverland" to enjoy the free childhood joys.

It was a great success once it was published, and it has been adapted into stage plays, animations and movies many times. In 1954, Walt Disney produced the animated Peter Pan, which was changed by Peter Pan, so Peter Pan was also Peter Pan’s. Code name.

"Peter Pan", a boy who refuses to grow up, is a figure that no one knows in the Western world, and symbolizes eternal childhood and the never-ending spirit of adventure.In the English Dictionary, "Peter Pan" is included as a proper noun.

How could George Lucas not know such a famous person.

Seeing Lucas knows, Qiao Feng smiled and nodded and said, "It is a film adapted from this fairy tale that I want to work with Mr. Lucas."

Knowing that Peter Pan is going to be filmed, not the story of the fairy flying around in the East,

However, George Lucas’s question just now arises again, that is why Qiao Feng wants to cooperate with himself. Since it is a film adapted from a fairy tale known to the entire Western world, it has a sufficient audience base. Why should Feng cooperate with himself.

George Lucas couldn't think of it, so he asked: "Why would Mr. Joe want to find someone to cooperate with? This story shouldn't worry about the box office because of Mr. Joe's screenwriting ability?"

"In the future, I will increase the number of film investments in Hollywood every year, and I will have a lot of cooperation with my Hollywood counterparts. The reason why this film chooses to cooperate with Mr. Lucas is because we have cooperated many times before." Qiao Feng smiled Explained.

"Oh, that's how it is." George Lucas nodded.

"By the way, Steven has a schedule recently, I hope this film will be directed by him." Qiao Feng said again.

"Since he directed Empire of the Sun last year, Steven has been resting. He should have time and interest in working with Mr. Joe." George Lucas thought about it and said.

"Okay." A flash of joy flashed in Qiao Feng's eyes. This was the main reason for his cooperation with George Lucas.

Steven Spielberg is a major director launched by George Lucas, and he has been hanging in Lucasfilm for several years. As a top commercial director, Spielberg has a lot of injuries. If Joe Feng just approached Spielberg and said that if he invited him to be the director, Spielberg would not necessarily choose to collaborate with Qiao Feng. But the collaboration with George Lucas is different. Lucasfilm has been producing since 1984. After Raiders of the Lost Ark 2 Demon's Landing, he rushed for three years.

In 1985, Mishima Yukio paid the compensation, and even the Tokyo International Film Festival did not allow this film to participate, and the subsequent mazes were also generally repercussed. And then the heavenly soldiers are even more bloody. This film has to say. The special effects are not inferior to Star Wars, but the production level is not low.

The story is about the adventure of an alien duck. As a result, the duck is played by a real person. It is completely impossible to watch. The investment of 30 million US dollars, and the box office only got more than 37 million and less than 38. million.

George Lucas, who had lost money for three years in a row, desperately needed a movie to get Lucasfilm out of his plight. At this time, Feng Qiao asked him to cooperate and said he wanted Spielberg to direct. George Lucas was sure. Will persuade Spielberg, and Spielberg will agree.

"I will have someone deliver the script tomorrow, and there will be someone responsible for the follow-up negotiations." Qiao Feng suppressed his joy and said.

"it is good."
