With "Spider-Man" unprecedentedly becoming the first movie to break the 100 million mark in the first week, and swiping 400 million box office in North America in two months, Marvel Comics immediately became hot and popular, and several major movie companies Sony is one of them, as they are looking at gold mines, and more companies have given up on the act of abandoning the right of adaptation in a series of copyright take-back actions after the surprise acquisition by the media. {yd / m first text}
Even so, they still hope to get a share of the surprise. This is not impossible. Surprise is not like it after all. It was acquired by Warner back in the 1970s. In addition to all factors, the Superman series and the Batman series are made up of They are exclusive. But surprise has always liked luàn selling corners. It ’s common for a superhero to buy several houses. Although the media started to think of ways to recover the copyright after getting the surprise, it also achieved very good results, but it will inevitably leave some traces. The inextricable relationship is also a troublesome thing. It is not selfish but can hurt others.
Adrian also knows this. He doesn't mind sharing it with others, but he has to show his sincerity first. There is no satisfactory price to get the corner from the media. Counting it out, there are several established movie companies that can really participate in the production of nearly 100 million investment. Among them, Warner Bros., of course, don't even think about it; Disney's route and positioning are different from surprises, and can be ruled out; m Gao Mei himself is difficult to protect, so go back and hold the golden signboard of 007 and continue to find a way.
So, counting, only Pella méng, Sony-Colombia, Fox, and the four global companies under the competition, so how to talk about the conditions? Because of this, in January Adrian made people announce that they were preparing for "X-Men". By working with other film companies. But surprisingly, although excited by the success of "Spider-Man", he was skeptical of Adrian's proposal to make "X-Men" into a huge series. So there is today's meeting, of course. They just hope that Director Miracle can explain the whole plan in detail.
"We all know that the power system of amazing superheroes is very húnluàn. In fact, all superhero comics in this series are like this, so there is a parallel universe. The stories happening in different universes are also different, and some become villains. The world of Superman and Batman, as well as Luther and the Joker representing justice and their confrontation; and surprise also has Dr. X's premature death, and Wanci Wang inherited his legacy to create a world of mutant schools. These parallel universes are what you acknowledge After talking about the "Avengers", Adrian immediately continued to talk about the "X-Men", surprised that although this group of people were appalled, they listened carefully to their emotions. .
"Although technology is advancing. Really cg animation can make many scenes that existed only in imagination appear on the big screen before, but there are still many things that can only exist in comics, unless there is unlimited investment. But for all movies Profit has a vertex, and the miracle of Titanic also appears at most once or twice. Therefore, it is necessary to make a set of X-Men suitable for making movies and the superhero of Marvel Comics as a whole. For example Dr. X and Magneto are friends, but they have taken two opposite paths because of different ideas. In the comics, we have enough space to describe their conflicts and feelings, but the movie only has 2 to 3 hours. How to add Great drama conflicts are very necessary. For example, Dr. X will be paralyzed because he parted ways with Wanci Wang. He wanted to stop him from being injured by Wanci Wang when he wanted to retaliate against someone who wanted to kill him. "Adrian continued rudely. talk.
That's right, the last idea came from X-Men: Lesson One. In fact, the basic ideas he gave were all based on "X-Men: Lesson One". As far as the setting of the movie is concerned, "X-Men: Lesson One" is basically self-consistent. It also highlights the relationship between Dr. X and Magneto ... how to say, according to previous Internet comments ... love and kill ... well, this is nonsense, but in terms of dramatic tension, this result is undoubtedly vivid memory.
Anyway, Adrian always insisted that a good film must have a good story, so he threw out the outline of a trilogy based on "X-Men: Lesson One". Of course, a very simplistic outline. Stan Lee, Bob Harris, and other people know how to build a surprising universe.
"The entire" X-Men "can't be filmed all the time, so that higher and higher budgets will overwhelm us, so we must first set up a complete universe suitable for making movies, and then describe a trilogy on it- —I will let the film screenwriters participate—the three stories must be able to be written together and connected to each other, and finally have a clearer end. Update Then, the popular corners must have their own relatively complete stories, three After the song, we can also make related stories for these characters separately. In short, I can fully cooperate with other film companies to make "X-Men" into a series, as long as the overall image right is in our hands. "Ah Drian said.
To put it bluntly, it is still his previous set, which is to let game companies complete various settings at the beginning when producing "Resident Evil", "World of Warcraft" and "Tomb Raider"-even if it may never be used in the future To-This has been the case for a film version of Resident Evil that has already made a good box office, as well as the upcoming Tomb Raider movie.
There is no doubt that Adrian's setting has received surprising support. Since it was said by the director of Miracles, it is definitely no problem.
"I like your idea, Ed. It's very good." After the meeting, the old man Stan Lee said to Adrian, of course, he not only wanted to say hello, but also shouldered the heavy tasks given by others.
"By the way, you seem to have mentioned the Avengers before, right?" He asked immediately.
"Did I say that?" Adrian asked in a surprised voice, knowing that the old man lù had a stunned expression before he laughed again.
"Don't worry, Stan, let's finish the" X-Men "series first, let's say that a" Spider-Man "hasn't fully established its amazing status. But you can really plan for the Avengers. We There is enough time to prepare, and I believe that the "Avengers" created by jīng will be very popular. "He said finally.
Adrian did not spit out his own opinions on the Avengers. The amazing executives had to study it by themselves, but this was also an exciting thing. Think about it. Having amazing superheroes together and appearing on the big screen at the same time can definitely suppress those guys.
But that's it. It will take a long time to make it. Don't look at "Avengers" in Adrian's memory so popular. Without the accumulation of propaganda for Marvel Comics in the past ten years, this is simply impossible. Amazing executives should be able to see this, so don't worry about them becoming more advanced, but the members of the Avengers may change, after all. The superhero's copyright is now in amazing hands.
After communicating with Marvel's senior management about "X-Men", although there are still some things that have not been decided, such as which film company to work with, and possible suitable actors. But Adrian immediately set off for London. Other film companies will go to mén themselves, and the initiative is in the hands of the media. As for the actors, the complete script has not yet come out, let alone Adrian has set a few in his mind.
There are also many things in London, such as the filming of "Sense and Emotion". The director Siméng? Langton is an Englishman, maybe it is not as delicate as Ang Lee. But he has experience directing films adapted from Jane Oscar's novels, and he has a good reputation. So don't worry about how bad he handles, let alone Adrian.
of course. Blanchett and Gwennis also gave him a surprise. The poor sister Eleanor and Marianna had nowhere to stay after being kicked out of the manor. Then they were seen and designed by the evil businessman Adrian from the United States. In the end he fell into the trap and fell into his hands and suffered ... insult?
"This is indeed a surprise, a wonderful surprise." Adrian, who was lying on the chuáng after the love, left and right holding Blanchett and Gwennis, said contentedly.
They interpreted the two corners of the elder sister who is restrained and the younger sister who is passionate and enthusiastic. Whether it is on the set or chuáng, especially Blanchett who bit his mouth when he was under the impact, chún did not want to speak, but still unavoidable Whispering yín, hún's expression of resentment and longing in his eyes impressed Adrian very much and caused "xìng" to rise-even if she knew she was performing.
From this point of view, Blanchett did have to be better than Gwennis in acting, so that Adrian had to keep her up and down for a while in order to appreciate her appearance, and finally had to Shake Alice tún to pray before sending her to the cloud.
"I just hope that Mr. Adrian can treat my sister better," said Blanchet, a gentle wěn, holding his neck.
Gwennis, who was lying on his mouth, looked up and looked at him with hope.
"Your relationship is really good," Adrian smiled meaningfully, playing with their softness. "Don't worry, I always have arrangements."
Should I say that the relationship between the two of them is good, or that Blanchett was bought by Gwyneth? There are about two of them. After all, Blanchett has already got a best nv protagonist, but Gwennis is really anxious.
Unfortunately, Liv is not here. She returned to the United States the day before yesterday and just missed it with Adrian, otherwise it will definitely be more interesting here. The power of habit is powerful, just like Gwyneth and Blanchett, Liv also has to get used to it quickly, not to mention they both like her very much, according to Gwyneth, they Three have also been having fun.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, Liv can't run away, it's also good to have Gwennis and Blanchett around, the only regret is that Blanchett's belly is still still. In this regard, Adrian was baffled, can't we really wait until December? Well, it doesn't matter. As long as you persist, you can always succeed. Even if it is really December, it's only a matter of time. It just can't happen again.
In addition to visiting the studio on "Sense and Feelings", Adrian had other things in London, while also paying attention to the situation in Los Angeles, and then got a piece of news that was not so good.
"Universal Music's stock price bō is moving abnormally," Claude said to him on the phone.
"What does it mean to be abnormal?" Adrian was a little strange. "You want to say that someone attacked us?"
"Not sure yet, maybe just a coincidence. I'm not sure that anything can happen in the financial markets." Crowder sighed.
"Then what are you going to do?" Adrian asked.
"Of course the invitation was made in advance. We are ready to talk to a few of the shareholders of Universal Music. It doesn't affect too much in advance." Claude looked relaxed.
"Okay, everything is careful, I have a ambition for Universal Music." Adrian finally said this.
It sounds strange indeed, but as Crowd said. Anything can happen in the financial market, it is better to deal with it for professionals. So Adrian left him behind and went to the house of another NV person.
"You should have seen the script of" Tomb Rob Mí City 2 ", which is not worse than the first one, so this year you can put most of it on it. In addition, I prepared a corner with a weight in the second half of the year. You, adapted from a British novel published in 1996. But you may need to gain some weight, "said Adrian, who was sitting on the sofa with Tu Tu in the bright living room of Rachel's house.
"Yes, I've watched the script, as long as the crew notices. I'll go check in, just ..." Rachel packed his things back to him, wearing a silk u-neck top and a tutu long kù, the curve is very good, "I want to take a break in the second half of the year. I want to play some stage plays in London. Maybe you can give it to others."
As soon as she had finished speaking, she was suddenly pulled over. A muffled sound followed as it was pressed against the wall. Adrian reached her forehead and squeezed her face. The corners of his mouth are slightly tilted.
"You don't seem to understand, Rachel. I'm asking you!" Adrian said quietly, staring at her.
"Sorry ... I'm sorry ..." Rachel's breathing suddenly became sharp, and her body began to tremble slightly, looking at him with timid eyes, but there was an abnormal red cháo on his face.
"I don't want to have it next time, understand?" Adrian asked immediately.
"Ming ... understand ..." Méng's pretty eyes were misted.
"But now, you have to pay for what you say and do," Adrian said, letting go of her.
Cháo's blushing Rachel immediately came to the coffee table, and her hands were propped up on the glass, her tún part was raised, and the rounded arc was tightly attached to the tuǐkù perfectly. With a snap, Adrian gave a heavy slap, and Rachelton snorted softly, his face became more ruddy, and his expression became erratic.
Rachel in this state is the most mí person, especially compared with her usual temperament, which is one of the reasons why Adrian likes her.
However, whether it's Gwennis, Blanchett or Rachel, it's just a small song from Adrian to London. The most important thing is to go to the set of "Harry bōte".
"Frankly, Ed, this is not an easy job. In the more than two months since the start of shooting, we have gone to at least a dozen places to take pictures." In the studio built outside London, Ke Rhys Columbus complained to Adrian with some complaints.
It is no wonder that he would send such emotions. The entire "Harry bōte" crew searched the whole of Britain for those locations that met the description of the novel. Many times, many real scenes can be combined into one of the novels, such as A Hogwarts contains several locations such as Durham Cathedral, Oxford University's Bō Delin Library, Alnwick Castle and many more.
And these are not old buildings or busy occasions, not to say that you can shoot if you want to shoot. In addition, although the "Child Labor Law" has been revised, it is still impossible for young actors to stick to shooting like adults. And the story is so long, even if there is a script approved by Rowling, the director has to make a choice based on his own judgment in the actual direction, and this choice must be approved by Rowling, so the progress is very slow, it is estimated that at least after the summer vacation To complete.
"Don't listen to him, Ed, Chris doesn't know how excited he is once he picks up the guide tube." Rowling chā whispered at this moment, and Chris laughed suddenly.
After the release of last year's "The Prisoner of Harry Bōte and Azkaban" in the summer vacation, even if the entire series has completely swept the world, Columbus is naturally very happy to be able to direct the first movie version of such a series of novels.
"Of course I know, but it's okay to let him complain. It's easier to vent the pressure to better put jīng on the director." Adrian patted Columbus on the shoulder with a smile.
He was indeed a conscientious director. He moved his family to London for this film. Several of his children also came to the film to make guest appearances at Hogwarts students.
"That's great ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I'll vent any grievances on you in the future," Columbus said immediately.
"No problem, as long as I'm here." Adrian grinned and turned to Rowling. "How, Joe, many people can't wait to see the fourth episode."
"Relax, Ed, I will make the draft on time." Rowling said with a smile, "I estimate that this will be the longest book in the series, and perhaps the most colorful one."
With the hot sales of the series, she is no longer the original appearance, she looks radiant, as if she has restored the blue chūn and vitality, and the whole person is beautiful.
"It's great, then I look forward to the final draft date." Although knowing the general content of the story-the entire series has not changed greatly because of his hands-Adrian still said this As a whole, the "Goblet of Fire" is indeed very colorful.
When he wanted to say something, little tuǐ suddenly felt a pain and turned around. Little emma was wearing a school uniform of Hogwarts, arms around, wearing a máo furry wig, tǐōng looked up at him, proud Her appearance was that Hermione stepped out of the book, and little Emma hid behind her and covered her mouth with a hand and chuckled.
