861 Get what you want

In fact, Lance and Kevin both know that cooperation between companies is absolutely impossible without friction. Even different departments within the same company have differences, so the most important thing is how the two parties play, communicate, and agree in the cooperation process.

But the situation in Marvel Studios is very special. They originally planned to stay away from the control of the six major film companies, so they chose Chaos Pictures to join forces to shoot "Iron Man". But who would have thought that Chaos Pictures's Lion had spoken out loud and wanted to build the Marvel Universe for the first time. Whether it was ambitious or ambitious, Chaos Pictures's plan to take a step closer is clear at a glance. Marvel Pictures is obviously an important part of their blueprint. So, will Chaos Pictures become another "six majors"?

If Marvel Studios stepped into the pit to escape the quagmire, that would be really not worth the loss.

Therefore, Kevin must calm himself down and be very cautious. There is no problem in cooperating with "Iron Man" and can't wait; when cooperating with the Marvel Universe, both sides must settle down and clarify their ideas again.

Lance naturally considered this, so he gave Kevin a reason that he could not refuse.

Kevin looked at the script of "Invincible Hulk" on the desktop, raised his head in confusion and cast a puzzled look. Lance said with a smile, "The script has not been completed for the time being, and this is not even the first draft, it can only be considered a semi-finished product, but you can refer to it. Even if it is not today, after the first draft is completed, I hope that the original comic author can read the script and give his opinions."

The Hulk's film adaptation rights are in the hands of Universal Pictures, but Marvel cannot know nothing about it.

Just like Sony Pictures is preparing for "Spider-Man 3", they will more or less seek Marvel's opinions, hoping to refer to more information from the original work and create a successful work. Therefore, Kevin only knew that Lance was once one of the directorial candidates for "Spider-Man 3" on Oscar Night.

Naturally, the same is true for Universal Pictures. Hulk failed several times. They wanted to restart the project. Marvel Entertainment's creative committee was the one they must ask.

However, Universal Pictures was only in the conception stage, and the project was not completely confirmed, so there was naturally not much related news. Kevin did not expect that he and Long Meyer actually thought of going together - but then he thought about it, how many people in Hollywood are not watching Lance's dynamics? He just occupied the short gap before the release of "Raging Road" and seized the initiative.

"So, Hulk? Is this why Iron Man scripts delayed so long? Are you still writing Hulk's scripts at the same time?" Kevin did not immediately start flipping through the script, but looked up at Lance, "So, are you planning to direct both works?" The first thought that came to Kevin's mind was: So is he going to compete with Lang for Lance?

"If you don't mind, I'd like to be the producer of both works." Lance leaned forward slightly, and his eyes were flashing with a sly light. "You probably won't expect that every work in the Marvel Universe is directed by me, right?"

Just one sentence made Kevin chuckle, "Of course not." To be precise, even if Lance wanted this, they wouldn't want it.

Although the same director in the series can ensure the continuation of the creative style and core ideas, it also needs to face problems such as the exhaustion of creativity, the limitations of conception and the collapse of the sequel. The "Godfather" series works are enough to be recorded in history. All three series are directed by Francis Ford Coppola, but the quality of the third one has declined significantly. Many loyal fans refuse to admit that the third one is also one of the series works; therefore, more often, sequel movies often seek more novelty and highlights by changing directors. There are four different directors in the famous "Alien" series.

"Hulk..." Kevin chewed the name carefully, then looked at Lance meaningfully, "This is not an easy task."

"If it were easy, you wouldn't find me, wouldn't you?" Lance's confidence and strength made Kevin smile. He gently withdrew his chin and said, "I can't deny it."

Kevin reached out and picked up the script of "Invincible Hulk" on the table. He knew that the correct work at this time was to bring the script back, read it carefully, and then discuss it with the Creative Committee. After confirming it, he would give Lance a reply; but when he recalled the conversation just now, Kevin was a little excited...

"Can I read it now?" Kevin raised his head, asked with a hint of hesitation and expectation.

"Of course." Lance's tone was very relaxed and made an invitation gesture. If the Marvel Universe cooperated, a breakthrough could be achieved today, it would be better.

Considering that the two people were in the middle of the interview, Kevin certainly would not devote himself to the detailed reading of the script. This is really rude and there is not enough time. A script with more than 100 pages cannot be finished in just a dozen minutes, so Kevin just plans to read the beginning and the end - often these two parts can determine the core value of a script.

But when Kevin reacted, he realized that he had read in one breath after reading the beginning. If the waiter had not come to ask if he needed a refill interrupted his reading rhythm, he would have continued to read. Looking up at Lance, he could not help but feel embarrassed, and coughed gently, "Sorry, I'm fascinated."

Lance shook his head with a smile, "No, I think, this is a good thing." He cast a consultation look at Kevin, "Right? This is a good thing!"

Kevin did not answer immediately, but pondered for a moment, "Lance, I feel a little disappointed." The answer was a bit unexpected, but Kevin looked at Lance's expression seriously, but could not find any trace of tension or worry, as if his words had no weight at all. This calmness and calmness made Kevin wonder, "Because I think you have spent more energy on the script of "Invincible Hulk". Relatively speaking, "Iron Man" does not seem to have received enough attention from you."

Kevin must admit that the "Invincible Hulk" has a gripping and relaxed opening, and it appeared with suspense at the beginning. Then Bruce Banner transformed into a Hulk, and the lost Hulk almost separated him and Betty's Heaven and Man forever. It can be said that Lance almost filmed the opening as the finale. This courage is jaw-dropping and even more irresistible. Even though he knew that Betty would definitely not die, Kevin still couldn't help but continue reading.

Lance's understanding of comic adaptations, his grasp of commercial films, and his control over script creation really made Kevin admire him. If it was just an accident, then "Invincible Hulk" became inevitable. Perhaps, the partner Marvel Studios has been pursuing has appeared in front of him.

The smile on the corner of Lance's mouth did not change much, and he shook his head gently, "I don't think so. The two works are not the same style, and the focus of the works is different." "Iron Man" is a project that has been fully restarted, and the ins and outs must be explained clearly; the time of "Invincible Hulk" is set after "Hulk Hulk", and the transformation is completed at the beginning and directly enters the next stage. It seems unique, but in fact there is no choice - you can't repeat the story of "Hulk Hulk" and shoot the mutation process again.

"Fact, this is the fact." Kevin nodded in affirmation, "but if I had chosen, I would like the Hulk story more because it was more ups and downs. What about you?"

Lance raised his eyebrows slightly, "You are asking me whether I like the left hand or the right hand."

Kevin did not deny, "I thought you were not the personality of shirking the problem."

Lance chuckled, "But I don't have a question or answer personality either."

Quickly, Lance and Kevin were smiling at each other. After restraining his smile, Kevin thought seriously, "So, the first stage of the Marvel Universe, Iron Man, Hulk, and what?" Lance gently touched his chin, his eyes rolled on Kevin's face. Kevin was nervous because of the deep gaze. He spread his hands and nodded helplessly, "Yes, your idea is correct."

Marvel Universe! It's done!

Lance worked hard for more than a year and finally achieved the goal that Chaos Pictures will join forces with Marvel Studios to create the first phase of the Marvel Universe. After preparing enough funds, they will complete the acquisition of Marvel as soon as possible and completely hold the Marvel Universe in their hands. This also means that Chaos Pictures has truly ushered in the opportunity to become the "Six Majors", which is an opportunity that DreamWorks, Peak Entertainment, and Lionsgate Pictures have never had.

Lance finally mastered the opportunity to create Hollywood's hope!

However, the excitement in his heart was only surging for a moment. Lance secretly clenched his left fist and then calmed down. The successful cooperation negotiations were only the first step. Only by shooting excellent works can the Marvel Universe be transformed into the propulsion of Chaos Film's rise, otherwise, it will only become a burden to drag himself down the abyss.

Kevin saw the flash of lust in Lance's eyes, and quickly raised his hands to surrender, "We have a lot of work to do next, and I must ask for advice from the company. I need to take this script back and read it in detail." After a moment of pause, Kevin also showed a bright smile, "But...yes, I hope we can work together to create the Marvel Universe, the focus is to create an excellent world that will make countless movie fans crazy."

At this moment, Kevin felt that he could hold the whole world in his palm. Even though he knew it was an illusion, it was difficult to suppress his inner excitement, plan, sway, and give advice. This is probably the case.

Looking up, Kevin looked at Lance seriously. Even he was so excited. So what about Lance? He was the real pusher hidden behind all this, but at this time Lance had returned to calm, calm, waiting for his emotions to gradually settle down, as if everything was under control, and that powerful aura slowly settled down Kevin's mood.

"Iron Man, Hulk, in addition to this, Captain America, Thor, and finally... Avengers." Lance said.
