Chapter 806 Isn’t it a secret?

After receiving Xixi's text message, Shen Changlin was stunned for a while.

It's not that I was surprised by "Mulan", but I noticed that it has only been six years since I was reborn!

Time flies so fast!

The world is like a white cloud and a gray dog...

I raised my head and looked out the window at the grand scene of burning clouds, and then felt sad for no reason...

It took me a long time to come back to my senses...

"Mulan"...

Disney will definitely make "Mulan" and make all the twelve princesses real-life.

The first live-action movie in the orthodox series should be "Maleficent" released in 2014, adapted from "Sleeping Beauty"...

"Maleficent" cost $180 million and grossed $758 million worldwide, and Disney quickly launched a plan to create a live-action princess series.

Then "Cinderella" won a global box office of $556 million at a cost of $95 million...

Then, "Beauty and the Beast", "Aladdin", "Mulan", and "The Little Mermaid" were simultaneously approved.

Why so fast?

Nonsense, make money!

In addition to the Marvel series, Disney also hopes to develop other projects that are sure to make money without losing money, especially the princess series that can sell skirts!

According to incomplete statistics, the licensing and derivatives business of "Frozen" has created unprecedented miracles, generating nearly 10 billion US dollars in revenue in the past six years. Among them, Elsa and Anna's princess dresses sold 3 million in North America, creating 4.5 Billions of dollars in revenue!

Make a movie, create a buzz, and it’s a good time for derivatives to sell well!

So, objectively speaking, "Mulan" is certainly a piece of cake!

But no one could have imagined that "Mulan" would not only hit the black swan of COVID-19, but also coincide with the Sino-US war, and the time when Chinese people's hatred of the United States has reached its peak. At this time, a Hollywood production with American citizenship would not cause resistance from anti-Americans. That's pretty good, plus the Chinese story has been modified by Americans, and the Chinese story background is in English, so it can easily touch the sensitive nerves of Chinese people.

If it weren't for her thick blood, she would have flopped long ago!

It's almost the same. There have been no new movies for three years in a row - after all, it's too risky to find her!

If the situation was better, it would be okay to take some risks, but now is the winter of film and television. No one can say when the impact of the epidemic will end. Every film cannot afford to make mistakes. At this time, no one can Be willing to take risks.

Well, the post-85s generation is collectively flopping, and only those who can receive film projects at this stage are considered good actors.

Oh, text back!

"My suggestion is that it's best not to take on projects like "Mulan" that Americans can't do well. They can't understand loyalty, filial piety, and justice!"

After waiting for a while, Liu Qianqian replied: "...This is "Mulan"!"

"So what? Since it's called "Mulan", I just hope that the Chinese market will accept it. To be honest, if the subject of "Mulan" is given to me, I can't guarantee that it can be shot well. Are you sure they can do it? ?”

"...But I want to give it a try. After all, it's a big Hollywood project!"

"Think carefully, you might die if you try it!"

"Then... let me think about it again!"

Shen Changlin said so, and Qian Qian had to think carefully...

"By the way, I have a Sony project here called "Game of the Brave". I'm short of a heroine. You can give it a try!"

"Jumanji...I know."

…

Sissi closed the phone without raising her head: "He doesn't like it!"

"...Not optimistic? Why?"

"He said Americans couldn't capture the essence of "Mulan"..."

Mommy Liu was speechless: "He said he couldn't make it if he couldn't make it? Disney, the Disney Princess series has never failed!"

There is nothing wrong with what she said. Disney has many live-action movies and many animated movies. There are many movies released by Disney that have failed. However, so far, Disney has not failed in the live-action movies that are remakes of original animations and based on the story. It is estimated that there will be no mistakes for quite some time.

"Mulan" is of course a big deal. It is common sense to infer that no matter what the reputation is, first of all, the heroine Hua Mulan will appear in front of fans all over the world, which greatly increases her popularity. Backed by Disney's big IP, it has a global commercial box office of at least 700 million US dollars. Got the results...

But Liu Qianqian now has great trust in Shen Changlin!

Not only do you obey what you are told, but at least you are obedient.

So, Sissi raised her head, looked at Mummy Liu, and said seriously: "I believe him!"

Mommy Liu couldn't sit still: "...a big investment of 200 million US dollars...it will be released simultaneously in more than 100 countries and regions around the world. What a great opportunity this is."

"Projects that he is not optimistic about have never been successful," Sissi paused and added, "I do not meet the regulations!"

"The rules are strict and people are hot. As long as Boss Jiang speaks for us, there will definitely be no problem."

Sissi looked at the time and stood up: "I'm going to film a movie..."

"I signed up for the audition for you!"

"I'm not going anyway. If you like "Mulan" so much, you can go by yourself!"

"...What are you talking about? Am I going to harm you?"

Mummy Liu was very angry and was about to continue persuading her, but then her cell phone rang. Zhao Shan’s call...

Talk to her about Jumanji...

As soon as Mummy Liu heard about Hollywood's A-level production, she wanted to agree, but...she couldn't be the boss of her daughter now: "I'll ask her later!"

Zhao Shan smiled: "...Okay, auntie, I'll hang up first!"

Just as Mummy Liu was about to nod, something suddenly occurred to her: "Xiao Zhao, have you heard any rumors over there?"

Zhao Shan didn't know why: "Rumor? What rumor?"

"That's it...Disney is going to audition for "Mulan"!"

"Oh...you said this, I know!"

Zhao Shan thought that Mummy Liu had heard some rumors, such as the affair between her daughter and her boss...

Mommy Liu quickly asked: "You know? Are there any auditions for actors?"

"Not really...Chinese actors will definitely be scolded if they act in a movie like this. The gain outweighs the loss..."

"So sure?"

Zhao Shan asked back: "...American directors and American producers, since when have they ever made a movie with a Chinese background that satisfied the Chinese people?"

Mummy Liu was silent for a moment, this answer somewhat impacted her inherent thinking.

Over there, Zhao Shan added another sentence: "Auntie, Sissi is very popular now and has a good reputation. The more times like this, the more cautious you have to be when choosing films. You must pay attention to maintaining your reputation. Capital is ebbing, and there is no good reputation to support it. It’s hard for actors to get recognition from capital!”

"...Okay, I understand."

Mummy Liu is a little unmotivated...

I was excited to give my daughter a surprise, but I didn’t expect that the whole world would do the opposite to me?

Maybe...it's the whole world that's wrong?

And...why doesn't Zhao Shan care about "Mulan" at all?

This is a big Disney production!

No, Boss Jiang said this and it hasn’t been made public yet...
Chapter completed!
