Chapter 273: Find the right entry point

No matter how bad it is, the House of Death has indeed achieved great commercial success. After the North American box office share was paid, as of July, the total investment of 8 million US dollars has been exchanged for nearly 35 million US dollars in revenue. , It can be said to be a big profit.
No one can expect that every small cost is Blair the Witch.
Most of those Hollywood movies that actually produce millions of dollars can make hundreds of thousands of dollars in profits.
Ronan doesn't know which game company's classic games Uvibauer will focus on. As long as the copyright and investment are appropriate, he will still support Uvibauer.
As for ruining game classics, it doesn't matter to a film merchant or a non-gaming fan.
If there are enough revenues, Ronan will dare to let Uvibauer shoot in World of Warcraft if he can get the copyright.
Thinking about the effects of the shots, people get goose bumps all over.
Recalling the background story of being eaten by Blizzard over and over again, Ronan suddenly found a suitable entry point, and the future success rate seemed to be relatively large.
The key is to choose a protagonist from among many Warcraft heroes!
This is the key! The likes of Anduin Lothar, World Sa, Arthas, King Val and Sylvanas are all weak.
Think about the social situation ten years later. What kind of protagonist can be popular?
Of course it was Jaina Proudmoore, the daughter of the sea.
Women, feminists, can be classified as American leftists before Theramore is over. For the sake of friends with abnormal skin and looks, they will not hesitate to kill relatives and find a way to get rid of the father who has made serious racist mistakes.
Doesn't this act of selling father coincide with the political correctness of that period?
Correct! Also, if you really want her to be the heroine, you must add a female identity. It is better to cross races. Are there any more famous women among orcs, trolls, and tauren?
This film was shot at that time, absolutely kicking the Golden Globe Award, punching the Oscar, even black panther than Panthers.
No wonder the adaptation of Blizzard's previous life failed so miserably, and finally fell to the point of selling the props to stop the loss. That was because the wrong protagonist was found and the wrong entry point was found.
If Blizzard shoots World of Warcraft after the Panther fire, maybe it will wait for some inspiration.
Films like Panthers can become the annual box office champions in North America. It can only be said that cultural differences and social conditions have too much influence on the film.
For example, Shrek, during overseas screenings, some reversal of classic fairy tales and jokes, was criticized by the media in some conservative countries for disrespecting literature and classics, and making classic fairy tales smug.
Ronan would like to ask these guys who always criticize others for disrespecting the classics, do they know the original version of these classic fairy tales? Should the fairy tales published in their country respect the classics? Respect the original?
The overseas screenings of Shrek have received excellent responses in the traditional Western market, but in some places, both the box office and the reputation can only be said to be average.
After all, for conservative-minded people, even in harmless movies like Shrek, they can interpret 10,000 kinds of maliciousness.
By the beginning of July, the film released by Embassy Pictures had been screened in more than 50 countries and regions, with a cumulative overseas box office of over 135 million U.S. dollars, and it was easy to pass 200 million U.S. dollars in the end.
Naturally, Embassy Pictures and DreamWorks Animation Studios have renewed the Shrek sequel distribution contract. All sequels of this series and DreamWorks Animation Studios will be handed over to Embassy Pictures for overseas full copyright distribution.
Although Ronan and Jeff Katzenberg often practice golf together and their personal relationship has developed very well, DreamWorks Animation Studios did not easily tie themselves to the Embassy Pictures, and obviously did not want to walk on one leg.
This is a normal operating strategy, and Ronan did not force it.
Besides, there are many classic animation feature films produced by DreamWorks Animation Studio, but there are also many bad films.
DreamWorks Animation Studio is sometimes a lot like Ridley Scott, and the film produced is always good and bad.
For example, Xiao Ma Wang, a key animated feature film project invested in at the same time as Shrek, Ronan does not remember DreamWorks filming such a film, so he would not be interested in publishing.
Ronan had a detailed chat with Jeff Katzenberg, and wanted to win a series about African animals that DreamWorks Animation Studio had just put on the agenda.
He has seen several prototype drawings of animals, including lions, zebras, giraffes and hippos in the initial creative drafts of the DreamWorks Animation Studio.
According to Jeff Kasenberg, the original inspiration of the film's story stems from a simple question: What would happen if zoo animals that have been living in the civilized world were placed in the primeval forest?
If I remember correctly, this is the Madagascar series.
Later, penguins of Madagascar were derived.
The two series of Shrek and Madagascar also truly confirmed the style of DreamWorks Animation Studio.
The current preliminary production budget is $70 million.
Ronan knows very well that, compared to the huge cost of hundreds of millions of dollars that Pixar studios will inevitably bring about excellence, DreamWorks Animation Studios pays more attention to spending a small amount of money to do big things, so the animation feature film is really better than the picture quality and special effects. Pixar's film is so short.
For example, Monster Power Company and Finding Nemo, in fact, a quick glance reveals that the picture quality far exceeds that of Shrek and Madagascar.
Before Pixar Studio was acquired by Walt Disney, it was a veritable group of gangsters.
How many shares of Pixar Studios does Steve Jobs have? Even after listing, there should be more than 50%, right?
If it continues to develop on a normal track, Pixar Studios will eventually be acquired by Walt Disney.
The key person to accomplish all this is called Robert Iger.
All relevant news and information in the previous life were mentioned when explaining the acquisition. The first big move that Robert Iger took after he took office in 2005 was to personally convince Steve Jobs to agree to Walt Disney's acquisition of Pixar. studio.
This can be regarded as the first step of Di Bao Bao's revival.
The current Robert Iger has just been transferred from abc TV station to Disney for a short time. He is only an executive in the entertainment department, and he is still far away from his previous life.
If I remember correctly, it seems that around 2003, the team headed by Roy Disney began to attack Michael Eisner. Disney’s already sharp internal conflicts broke out completely. Robert Iger, who was originally invisible and leaky, was taken by Michael Eisner. After Na was promoted vigorously, he began to embark on the first stage of Disney.
Robert Iger belonged to the person promoted by Michael Eisner, but eventually succeeded Michael Eisner.
Power struggles have never been so tender.
The ghost knew why Robert Iger could win the support of Roy Disney and many other shareholders and directors who opposed Michael Eisner.
But in any case, Robert Iger is a very capable person.
In the past, Disney could not even find a suitable successor.
It seems that this smiling Mickey Mouse is interested in participating in the US presidential election.
Yes, Angelina Jolie has this idea.
She walked on the path that George Clooney had always wanted to walk, but did not succeed.
If there is a President Julie in America in the future, it will be really wonderful.
The prodigal girl will not change her gold...
"Lindsey, I have finished reading your manuscript."
In the office of Shahai Entertainment, Ronan looked at the delicate Lindsay Bill and said: "The revised version is very good. Katniss has been particularly successful in shaping, and this role will become a classic of female independence."
Lindsay Bill sat in a chair and said with a smile: "It's fine if you are satisfied." She is already familiar with Ronan, so you are welcome, and said directly: "Can the manuscript be handed over to the publisher?"
Ronan nodded: "I will ask someone to contact Random House in the afternoon and pass the manuscript to them. With Twilight in front, this publication is not a problem."
He thought about it, and added: "You still have your signature in the author column."
Lindsay Bill smiled and said, "Well, good."
To be able to sign a work, for other gunmen ghostwriters, she can't even think about it, but she has received such treatment twice in succession, which is quite satisfying.
Ronan added: "Linsey, your next stage of work is to cooperate with Random House to revise the Hunger Games manuscript, and then complete Gray's Fifty Shadows. This is our last contract."
"Don't worry, Ronan." Lindsay Bill was confident: "I'm ready."
She was a little embarrassed and said, "Some time ago~EbookFREE.me~ I went to San Fernando Valley to watch a similar film."
Ronan did not expect that she had made such serious preparations and said: "After completing this 50 shadows of Gray, if you want to develop into screenwriting, you can continue to stay at Shahai Entertainment. I will let the company provide you with formal Screenwriting contract. In addition..."
Suddenly he remembered the right to adapt the summer novel of the jeans he had received, which is undoubtedly suitable for female screenwriters, and Lindsay Bill's ability has also been proven.
"I have a female film project here." Ronan said appropriately: "After you finish Gray's fifty shadows, you can devote yourself to the script creation of this project."
Lindsay Bill couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart and said, "Okay! I will definitely satisfy you!"
Soon, the young female screenwriter happily left Ronan's office.
Everyone has different ideas. Compared to a writer, Lindsay Bill prefers to be a screenwriter.
Ronan left the company before get off work hours and took two bodyguards to the Auto City to receive the ordered vehicles.
