Since Chaos Pictures was founded, they seem to be constantly creating miracles, but they are far from being as good as this time.

As we all know, all the works launched by Chaos Pictures have not failed. Whether it is commercial films or awards season works, they all achieved profitability, almost every year. Especially the "Raging Road" in 2006. The investment of 150 million yuan and the publicity budget of less than 20 million yuan have been exchanged for the global box office data of 1.29 billion yuan, which is the most profitable work in history among the 100 million yuan investment works.

As an independent film company that has not received financing from Wall Street, Chaos Pictures' original accumulation speed is really shocking. However, since Chaos Pictures was not listed, people have no detailed data on the company's internal economic situation and can only evaluate it. Therefore, when Chaos Pictures announced that it would complete its acquisition of Marvel at a transaction price of 1.45 billion yuan, the whole Hollywood was shocked - especially in the tide of the financial crisis, which became even more appalling.

According to rumors inside Wall Street, in the financial crisis caused by this real estate bubble, a total of five groups of people accurately predicted the upcoming crisis before the storm, so they fled fiercely and became the few winners in the catastrophe. Four groups of people came from within Wall Street, represented by Michael Burry, who received nearly 500% return, earning more than 2.6 billion in net profits, and another group of people... Ian Strello.

Ian, who works for venture capital companies, also has close ties with Wall Street. In the financial storm, he made full use of his connections and abilities to successfully win a return of up to 2 billion for Chaos Pictures - this is a pure return number, which really made the entire Wall Street admire him. Many hedge funds have extended olive branches to Ian and have developed great interest in Chaos Pictures.

Just as people were shocked by the news that the "Rampant Road" had received more than 500 million dividends, Chaos Pictures successfully completed another primitive accumulation, not only escaped from the financial crisis, but also achieved a great victory, and ended with the completion of Marvel's acquisition, giving the entire Hollywood a slap.

The most incredible thing is that Chaos Pictures has always remained silent and completed all the acquisition work in a thunderous and resolute manner, without even leaking the news. From another perspective, people never thought that Chaos Pictures, as an independent film industry, had such great ambitions, so naturally they did not notice Chaos Pictures' small actions. By the time everyone reacted, Marvel Entertainment had become a branch of Chaos Pictures.

This is the real earth-shaking.

Chaos Film now cannot be measured by DreamWorks or New Line Film. After having distribution departments, screenwriters departments, production departments, and trailer soundtrack departments, Chaos Film now has added Marvel departments, which has enabled the intellectual property department they just created to rapidly expand and grow, and it can already be seen that the prototype framework of a huge empire; in addition, with the victory of investment short sellers, Chaos Film has at least more than one billion US dollars of liquidity to control - this is still the premise that Ian did not continue to invest in circularly. Everyone knows that Wall Street is best at making money with money. In other words, Chaos Film after completing the original accumulation has completely opened up the shackles and shackles that have been shrouded on its head.

After experiencing the 79th Oscar, people always think that they have a full understanding of Chaos Pictures’ energy, but now they find that their gaze is too narrow. Chaos Pictures has already developed to another new level, just like Reims.

People always underestimate Lance, always question Lance, and always suppress Lance, but in the end they find that they have never really caught up with Lance's pace, and can only look at the far-reaching back. At this moment, Chaos Film is strongly declaring its presence as the seventh player, showing its sharpness!

Especially at such a stall, the six major film companies were trapped in the financial crisis and had different degrees of chaos. Chaos Pictures could not find a better opportunity than this, so it emerged. Obviously, Chaos Pictures, CEO of Chaos Pictures, also realized this. Chaos Pictures, which has been silent for the past few months, finally announced their next development plan.

First of all, there is the latest news about the two works "Iron Man" and "Invincible Hulk". "Iron Man" is confirmed to be on this year's Thanksgiving schedule, and will compete with works such as "National Treasure 2" and "I Am Legend" for the box office of the holiday season; "Invincible Hulk" will make a brilliant debut as the opening match of next summer season, and will come strongly in the first week of May.

As can be seen from this detail alone, Chaos Film's layout has begun to become more general. Because in addition to these two works, Chaos Film has also announced the distribution plans for several other works, including independent films they purchased the distribution rights, and also the works they are filming and producing, such as "Old Nowhere to Belong", which will be the first to land at this year's Venice Film Festival - this will be the first time that Reims brings his work to the three major European film festivals, but as an actor.

Secondly, Chaos Pictures has announced the shooting plans for three works in the next three years. Marvel's first work "Iron Man 2" after entering Chaos Pictures will be put into filming next spring. The "Invincible Hulk 2" that cooperates with Universal Pictures will be put into filming next autumn. There is also a new hero "Thor" in preparation for the preparation, but the specific shooting time has not yet been opened.

Both the movies "Iron Man" and "Invincible Hulk" are still in post-production and have not been released, but Chaos Pictures has already shown enough ambitions and blueprints, which undoubtedly makes the fans' emotions rise higher, and their expectations for these two works are also slowly rising.

In addition, Chaos Film has passed the shooting plan for three independent films - all of the three works come from the screenwriter foundation sponsored by Chaos Film, namely "Frozen River", "The Killer No Holidays" and "Milke". All three works will be invested and produced by Chaos Film and will be responsible for the distribution.

Among them, "Milke" was the first to start and entered the preparatory stage. Lance is currently actively contacting Sean Penn, hoping that he can play the male lead, but Sean is still a little hesitant because he hopes that Lance can take charge of the director. Lance, who is busy filming "old and nowhere to rely on", has no way to make a promise. Rumor has been that Lance is interested in directing Gus Van Sant. During the Diorama Film Festival, they once worked with "Elephant".

Finally, there is Chaos Pictures’ intellectual property department. After acquiring several sets of adaptation rights for teenagers’ novels, they successfully bought the copyright of the film adaptation of the musical “Mamma Mia” and are actively negotiating Meryl Streep, hoping that she can serve as the heroine of this work. As we all know, Meryl has always supported Lance, and I really hope that the two can cooperate. Once it is done, will Lance’s next work be a musical movie? This is interesting.

In comparison, "Twilight" that officially started casting is not favored. Many media believe that Chaos Pictures is too radical and too greedy. This set of teenage novels does not have the value of adaptation at all, and the box office prospects are worrying.

If you don't take action, you will make a big splash. Chaos Film's big moves are really fierce, and it can be clearly felt that they are prepared. They started playing this game of chess long before the Oscars, long before the awards season, and even before the "Rampant Road", waiting for the right time to make a concerted effort and push with all their strength.

Now, Chaos Pictures has made a brilliant debut, and let’s see how the six major film companies respond.

Midsummer has arrived, and in a blink of an eye, half of 2007 is about to pass. Journalists from all over the world have come to the Mediterranean Costa à and joined the carnival of the Cannes Film Festival. This year's Cannes is really too lively, especially the arrival of Reims, which makes people deeply feel the enthusiasm of the French people. Although Reims did not come with his works this year, Chaos Film presented a "Diver Bell and Butterfly" and made a big splash again.

"Diver Bell and Butterfly" was widely praised in Cannes, and successfully won the Best Director Award at the closing ceremony. It is generally believed that it is very likely to represent France in this year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film; then won the Palme d'Or in "Three Weeks and Two Days in April", announcing the end of the 60th Cannes Film Festival.

However, the vigorous Cannes was stolen from the other side of the Atlantic. Warner Bros. and Disney announced that the two sides will cooperate to shoot three DC comic adaptations, and this news is undoubtedly a bombshell!

Whether it is the cooperation between the two giants or the cooperation goals of the comics again, this is the most sensational news in 2007, especially after Chaos Pictures acquired Marvel Comics. In a silent manner, comic adapted movies have risen strongly and become a new direction for the development of the film industry. This really makes the industry monk Zhang Er confused, because last year's comic-adapted movie suffered a crushing defeat - Warner Bros.'s "Superman Return" was the first to be affected.

Compared to Chaos Pictures, Warner Bros. and Disney seem a little calmer. The two sides have signed a cooperation agreement for three works, namely the "Shine" which will start filming this fall, which will be directed by Frank Miller. It is rumored that this work will continue the style of "Sin City" and the highly acclaimed "300 Warriors" at the beginning of this year; then the "Watchman" which will start filming next summer. This work is currently being selected for scripts, and everything is uncertain, but Warner Bros. is willing to be directed by Zack-snyder; and the "Green Lantern" that will be put into production next winter or the spring after.

Obviously, the box office failure of "Superman Return" and "X-Men 3" in 2006 still made Warner Bros. Disney more cautious, but their determination to develop comic adaptation potential is unquestionable.
