Chapter 273 Sequel Invitation
But I didn't expect that although the "pseudo documentary" is not the first time it has appeared on the big screen.
However, the 'pseudo documentary' combined with the theme of superheroes is a type of movie that no one had ever thought of in the past.
Especially the plot performed in the movie is still profound for most Americans. The New York City government's efficiency is average, and the traces left by the combat destruction of "Andrew" and others have not been completely repaired.
During the previous film promotion period, Universal did not miss this opportunity.
He specially pulled Zhao Yuan and his group to the scene and launched a donation campaign, which can be said to be using publicity methods to the extreme.
This method obviously played a certain role and provided effective support for the box office of the movie.
"According to the box office evaluation of "Heroes Out of Control", the final box office of the movie is likely to reach 300 million US dollars, and the global box office is expected to exceed 600 million US dollars, especially in Japan and Mexico, the box office trend of the movie is obvious..."
Even through the phone, Zhao Yuan could imagine the expression on Ron Mayer's face at this moment.
According to the news revealed by the media not long ago, there will be a personnel change within the world, and Ron Mayer's current position will be the beneficiary of this change.
After all, in recent years, Universal has developed well in the film market, especially in the several films produced and released by Zhao Yuan, which have been very popular. Unless they are crazy, it is impossible not to reward a hero like Ron Mayer.
I believe that the deputy in front of the title of Vice President Ron Mayer will be removed in no time.
Of course, the change within the Global World is not the focus of Ron Mayer calling Zhao Yuan.
On the phone, after congratulating this, Ron Mayer quickly revealed the focus of his call.
"In fact, Universal is very satisfied with the box office results of "Heroes Out of Control", so I hope to take advantage of the popularity brought by the movie today and launch a sequel while the iron is hot. Zhao You will still direct the screenwriter."
It is not surprising that popular movies and TV series will be released in sequels.
Although, under the box office of "Heroes Out of Control", inviting Zhao Yuan to direct the second sequel movie is destined to further expand in the cost of director and screenwriter.
However, considering the income ratio, Global still hopes that Zhao Yuan can continue to direct the creation of the sequel movie.
"You should know, Ron, "Hero Out of Control" had no plans to make a sequel at the beginning of filming."
When Zhao Yuan received the call, he had already guessed Ron Mayer's purpose.
Similarly, he also accurately revealed on the phone that he was unwilling to take over the filming sequel.
"At the end of the movie, two members of the superhero trio have died. In this case, a surviving star can't support the subsequent plot development..."
On the surface, Zhao Yuan gave an excuse because two of the three starring actors in the movie have died, but in fact, Zhao Yuan has no idea about the script changes in the sequel to "Heroes Out of Control". The original world "Super Power Out of Control" has been waiting for so long but no sequel has come out. I think the screenwriter who created the script can't think of more plots like him.
After all, for a "fake documentary", all the plots that should be filmed in the movie have been filmed.
"I know……"
On the other end of the phone, Ron Mayer obviously knew Zhao Yuan’s difficulties.
However, considering the opinions of the board of directors and the box office of "Hero Out of Control", Ron Mayer couldn't help but suggest: "Perhaps we can arrange another character to let him get in touch with the crystals given to super powers in the movie, and then recreate a super villain, or resurrect the dead character, or just shoot the character prequel..."
Resurrection from the dead is not uncommon for Hollywood movies.
Take "X-Men" from Twentieth Century Fox Films as an example. Which of the popular characters is not dead or alive? This movie is dead, and the next flips through time and space to make him live again. Even if he dies completely in the drama, he can still be picked out to shoot the prequel. In short, if you want to shoot a sequel, Hollywood has a thousand ways to make the dead characters come back to life.
Although, the Global side sincerely wanted to invite Zhao Yuan to take over the sequel to "Heroes Out of Control".
However, Zhao Yuan no longer had any ideas.
Just this year, he has participated in filming enough movies and TV series. The box office share of the two movies has made him make a fortune. It is no exaggeration to say that even if Zhao Yuan will no longer shoot movies and TV series in the future, the copyright of the movies and TV series in his hands can ensure that he will have no worries about food and clothing in the future.
Besides, although the work in Hollywood is interesting, for him now, it is just a leisure activity for his daily leisure.
With the system in hand, most of his energy is destined to be devoted to the evolution of the real script.
Some time ago, when he was doing a retrieval promotion for "Heroes Out of Control", he developed a lot of creativity and needed some time to sort it out to lay the groundwork for the next new script.
"Okay, if you stick with it."
Feeling the firmness of Zhao Yuan's tone on the phone.
Ron Mayer did not continue to make things difficult for him. In fact, with Zhao Yuan's current status in Hollywood, he is no longer the little person who had to go to the world to ask for resources in order to shoot a movie.
With his current status, he wants to shoot a movie.
Any film production company that you go to will report a name, and there will be a lot of Franklin who will invest in it.
"By the way, the DVD of "Ghost Record: Athletic" last quarter has been released. Global is counting. I believe that in a few days, the DVD share will be reduced, and there is also the Internet share. In recent years, the Internet movie market has developed rapidly, and more and more people are accustomed to watching movies through the Internet..."
At present, Global and Zhao Yuan have always maintained a tacit cooperation.
The key reason is naturally unavoidable to escape the interests.
Theoretically, the speed of giving money from film production companies has always been to delay as much as possible, and as little as possible.
One of the most famous examples is Warner's accounting.
Through Hollywood Bookkeeping**, a profitable movie called "Harry Potter" was calculated as a loss.
In this regard, major Hollywood film production companies have precedents, and Universal is also a good player in this regard.
If they are willing, they can also discount Zhao Yuan's income in movies. Fortunately, the Global side is still hoping to continue to cooperate with him at the moment, so they have always been very polite in the calculation of copyright sharing.
Of course, in some ways, it is also the luck of the world.
