Chapter 731: Episodes of throwing the trash can

"Mark Miller really likes the setting and structure of "Ace Agent"."
In the office, Robert Lee said to Ronan: "So, I want to get authorization from Shahai Entertainment to adapt "Ace Agent" into a comic."
Ronan directly asked the most critical: "What about copyright?"
Robert Lee said: "My condition is that the adaptation of the comics is published by Marvel Entertainment, and the copyright belongs to Relativity Entertainment. Mark Miller can share the revenue dividends from comics like a type of screenwriter hired by Marvel Entertainment. "
Not involving the movie and other peripheral income, Ronan had no opinion on this, and asked: "Mark Miller agreed?"
"He agreed in principle." Robert Lee looked at Ronan and said: "But he wants to make a very big change to the plot of the movie. I can't call the shots, so I can only come to you, the script writer."
If it were not for this, Robert Lee had every right to decide other matters and directly signed with Mark Miller.
This movie in the Shahai Entertainment Film Library is the Arab protagonist version of Ronan based on the magical modification of the previous movie "Ace Agent". The setting and structure are not much different from that of the movie, but the content is completely different.
The previous film was also an adaptation. Is it related to Mark Miller? Ronan became interested and asked: "How does he want to change?"
Robert Lee had an exchange with Mark Miller, and simply said: "The protagonist has been changed to an Englishman. The secret service organization is no longer a cosmopolitan, but an ancient British organization similar to the Knights of the Round Table. Request to recreate a personable agent type."
The "Bourne Flyer" series has led to another tough guy-style agent, the traditional Bond-style agent film, which is somewhat outdated.
But movies are always changing, and the tastes of market audiences are also constantly changing.
Ronan knows this well, and these changes seem to have returned to the previous route. He just thought about it briefly and said: "Yes, I agree to authorize Mark Miller, and you are responsible for discussing the specific conditions."
"I have no problem here." Robert Lee picked up a "King of the Sea" comics and said: "I will see the violent little Lori."
As he walked, he said, "Don't say, this dark type of comic looks very interesting."
Ronan has already browsed comics. Compared with previous movies, the original comics are more bloody, violent and dark, and the scale is much larger than the traditional comics of Marvel.
The movie must not be adapted in this way, otherwise, let alone R grade, it will definitely enter the ranks of NC-17.
Of course, this movie can be popular, super violent cute Lori can be said to be a very important factor.
The former actress seems to be young, and she is not the only actress. There are many outstanding girl stars after the 90s, such as Dakota Fanning, who is also confused.
After the copyright is granted, there is no need to worry about film adaptations. Shahai Entertainment does not lack adaptation projects.
Since this year, Shahai Entertainment has invested a considerable part of its resources in the production of TV series. Netflix's streaming media business will not serve as the first film platform for Relativity Entertainment in a short period of time. The direct first broadcasts are mainly TV series.
"Prison Break" and "Survival in the Wild" have already been filmed and produced, only waiting for Netflix's streaming media business to go public.
In addition, a number of TV drama projects have also begun to be planned. Oscar winner Marian Derio's "Chernobyl" project, after the trial film received the green light, the crew has been formed. At the beginning of the month, I entered the shooting stage.
Currently, the crew has moved to Ukraine, and will shoot some location scenes near Kiev.
After Jeff Abrams's "Hurricane Rescue 2" finished shooting and moved to the post-production stage, he began to be distracted, presided over the post-production of the film, and made pre-planning for the TV series project "Lost" .
Abrams will personally direct the first few episodes of this TV series, and then control the overall situation as a producer.
Similarly, "Lost" and "Chernobyl" were all packaged by Shahai Entertainment to CAA as a one-stop service.
Ronan does not believe in CAA's packaging production capabilities in first-line large-scale productions and even second-line commercial films, because their packaging services have basically not been involved in large-scale investment commercial films.
But packaging TV series, this is the housekeeper of CAA.
However, CAA’s recent recommendation of actors is a bit unreliable. It is probably due to the constant pressure of star-level actor customers to switch jobs. CAA has signed many new actors in the past year and seems to want to cultivate more loyalty and recognition of CAA. customer of.
It's not easy for newcomers to get started. This is basically the case in all business districts, unless they are the second generation.
Just like recommending Lindsay Lohan and Blake Lively to the filming crew of "Gossip Girl", CAA sells its newcomers to Hollywood.
The effect can only be said to be general. For example, Ronan asked Lindsay Bill to cross out Lindsay Lohan.
On the "Lost" crew, CAA recommended a young actress named Evangeline Lily to play the leading role. After seeing the natural and old face in the profile photo, Ronan vetoed it very firmly.
The actresses recommended by CAA have successively encountered problems of unqualified appearance, which gave Ronan the urge to kick CAA and cooperate with other agencies.
First Lindsay Lohan, then Evangeline Lily, what the is this?
Is it so difficult to understand the most basic requirement of the vase-like role of being beautiful and proposed by Shahai Entertainment?
Brian Lord quickly called Ronan and said that he would personally ask about the actor recommendation for this role.
In any case, CAA is the largest brokerage company in Hollywood. Ronan cannot easily make the decision to kick out an important partner such as CAA because of his temporary likes and dislikes.
Relativity Entertainment cooperates with major Hollywood agencies. Ronan never restricts which agency the actors or behind-the-scenes staff come from for all film projects shot by Shahai Entertainment. However, for TV drama projects, CAA clients have always been given priority.
Shahai Entertainment’s first TV series, which has been broadcast for three seasons of "Grey the Intern", successfully entered the public television station in the first season and succeeded. CAA played an extremely important role.
The relativity entertainment back then was not the relativity entertainment now.
The TV series of Relativity Entertainment will basically no longer enter the TV platform, and the future platform choice is Netflix streaming.
After the popularity of TV series, including DVD rental and sale, all can be carried out through the Netflix platform.
"Lost", "Gossip Girl" and "Chernobyl" three series, the latter will only be shot for one season, the former is the first season, the fate is determined by the market response.
The production of these three dramas will be finished in the middle of next year and will be released on Netflix's streaming media platform one after another.
In addition, "House of Cards", "The Walking Dead" and "Game of Thrones" are all recruited by the screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment to start the script adaptation of the first season.
However, Netflix's streaming media must remain hot, and works that may become popular dramas must be launched one after another, rather than being invested in it.
The preparation of these two films will take a while.
Compared with the movies, Ronan has seen too many American dramas, and the stock is really limited. Only according to some impressions, the screenwriter department can make appropriate creations.
For example, collect horror legends from all over the United States, and see if there is any possibility of adapting horror TV series after integration.
There is also a famous TV series. Although I have not watched it, I have also heard of Xie Er's name. Once on the Internet, there were many voices saying that a certain series copied Xie Er.
Ronan also focused on this concept when convening a meeting with the screenwriting department, asking the screenwriters to create suitable sitcoms based on several otaku and beautiful women.
For this kind of drama, the investment in the first season is low. After the script is completed and passed the review, you can try the effect in the previous season.
Ten episodes were shot in the first season, a few million dollars is enough.
With the current strength of Shahai Entertainment, even if it fails, this loss is completely affordable.
If it succeeds, not to mention like "The Big Bang Theory", half of the results means that a large profit may be generated.
DVDs can be sold out.
Many of Netflix’s hot dramas, even if they can be seen online at any time, still have a large number of consumers paying for the DVD~EbookFREE.me~ Ronan has never seen the previous "Big Bang Theory" and can only use it. Cross the river by feeling the stones in this way.
Fortunately, sitcoms are a common type in Hollywood and filming is not that difficult.
After the screenwriting meeting, George Clint chatted with Ronan for a while and recommended a project.
"For a TV drama project, Vince Gilligan was hired."
In the office, George Clint poured a glass of water with Ronan and placed it on the coffee table next to him. He took a thick paper bag from the desk and handed it to Ronan: "This man has been a screenwriter. , Has been a producer and director, and is also an old Hollywood qualification."
Ronan told the truth: "I haven't heard of him before."
George Clint smiled and said, "Actually, I haven't heard of it before." After making a little joke, he said: "This is recommended by James Wong and Glenn Morgan. "
Ronan had already opened the file bag, and when he heard the two men, he had certain expectations for the contents of the file bag.
Both James Wong and Glenn Morgan have worked with Shahai Entertainment. The former is still working on "Reaper is Coming 4". Both of them are more reliable types, and the recommended person should not be outrageous.
George Clint continued: "Vince Gilligan, James Wong and Glenn Morgan worked together on the "X-Files" crew for two years. Before this project came to us, it had been approved by FX, TNT , HBO and many other TV stations refused. The most exaggerated is that someone just threw it into the trash after watching it."
He added: "According to James Huang, most of the reasons for rejection are the same-no one wants to read the story of a middle-aged uncle trafficking in drugs in New Mexico..."
