Chapter 867: Treasure of Horror Materials
When he came to Shahai Entertainment, Wan Ziren found George Clint and briefly said that after signing a confidentiality agreement, he read the outline of Marvel's "Avengers Film Project" in the archives with the highest confidentiality of Shahai Entertainment.
Wen Ziren is a smart man. Combined with what Ronan said, he completely understood the meaning of the same background universe.
Like Marvel's superhero comic "Avengers", many characters from different works are placed in the same background era.
Seeing the two pieces of information in my hand and thinking about the situation of the Warren couple, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that this was a good idea.
For example, if these two materials are adapted into movies, they will definitely add a lot of highlights if they can be linked.
In the future, if you have other horror movies, you can also put them in the same world. Just like Marvel Superhero Comics Movie, you can achieve linkage when encountering a certain vengeful spirit or other existence that cannot be solved.
In this way, a horror film universe can be created, the Wen movie universe that belongs to him, Wan Ziren!
Wan Ziren has discovered why among so many producers in Hollywood, Ronan Anderson can become a gold medal producer. His abilities and vision are really unique!
"Yes!" Wan Ziren looked at the outline of the "Avengers Movie Project" and couldn't help but nodded frequently: "It's totally OK!"
It seems that we will continue to cooperate with Relativity Entertainment for a long time in the future.
Perhaps it was due to personality, or perhaps it was from a Chinese family in the far East, Wen Ziren did not expand because of the great success of the "Saw" trilogy.
On the contrary, I have a deeper understanding of Hollywood and know that relying on powerful companies like Relativity Entertainment, the future path will be better.
After thinking about it, Wen Ziren also made a decision. He did not stay in the archives room for a long time. He greeted George Clint and asked him to send someone to contact the Warrens as soon as possible. Then he quickly left the Relativity Building and found his old partner Ray Warner to discuss the adaptation of the two pieces of information he had.
It is not easy to create such a movie universe, and laying a solid foundation at the beginning is the key.
Wan Ziren himself is a director with a strong business idea, and he is not always confused by artistic pursuits like ordinary directors.
Shahai Entertainment's "Avengers Film Project" gave Wan Ziren a huge inspiration and also made him think about what to do in his own film universe?
As far as he thinks, the so-called movie universe is certainly not something that can be claimed by having several sequel movies. The unique world view, infinitely extended story system, and complex character relationships are all necessary conditions for the movie universe.
Wen Ziren is confident that as long as he is given enough time, he will definitely be able to complete this plan.
Of course, the early stage of the plan also requires help.
Wan Ziren found Ray Wonal, and the two had a heated discussion on this, and soon reached an agreement that Ray Wonal would provide support for script creation in this movie universe project.
The next day, the two met with staff sent by George Clint and flew directly to Bridgeport, Connecticut, to meet the Warren and his wife themselves.
Ed Warren was in a bad state and seemed to be called by God at any time. Only Rowling Warren accompanied Wen Ziren and Ray Warner to tell the story of some investigations of supernatural events and also asked them to visit the Warren Museum of Whom.
In addition to the Warren Farm incident, Rowling Warren focused on the two people with a ragdoll and the exorcist incident that had a wide influence that year.
According to her, in the 1970s, two roommates living in a house claimed that their doll was possessed by a girl ghost named Annabell Higgins. After the other party asked for help, she and Ed Warren arranged a ceremony to trap the girl ghost in the doll, telling the girls that this was a "manipulated non-human existence", and took the Annabell doll away and locked it in the "Spiritual Museum" in their home.
After hearing Rowling Allen's description, Wan Ziren was greatly inspired. This is a very good movie theme!
He looked at the old Mrs. Allen, his eyes shining, as if he saw a huge treasure house of horror themes!
Then, Rowling Allen told Wan Ziren and Ray Warner about the "devil murder incident", "werewolf incident", "samurai haunted incident", "Connecticut haunted incident", "terror nun murder incident", etc.
Wan Ziren felt that this trip was really right. The adaptation of the things that Rowling Warren told was enough to support the entire horror film universe.
As for whether these events are true or the stories made up by the Warrens, it doesn't matter to the Hollywood movie adaptation.
In fact, because of the existence of this couple, the related adaptations will inevitably add a lot of highlights, and even create a movie series with real adaptations.
I have to say that after staying in Shahai Entertainment for several years and collaborating with Ronan for three consecutive films, Wan Ziren unknowingly, some of his ideas were influenced by Ronan.
Wan Ziren also asked Rowling Warren about the relevant opinions on Hollywood adaptations. Rowling Warren was very interested in this and expressed his positive support.
"It's easy to say about fees, and free authorization is not a problem." Rowling Warren felt a sense of transcendence in seeing through the various aspects of the world, as if a clear stream of this dirty material society: "I just hope that the movie can regain some reputation for us, and too many people have slandered Ed and me as liars."
She took out a lot of letters from the cabinet and showed them to Wen Ziren and Lei Wonal one by one: "This is the letter of help and assistance sent to us by the church over the past few decades. During our decades of supernatural investigations, we have received help from many people, including doctors, researchers, police officers, nurses, college students and clergy."
Wen Ziren and Lei Wonal also read it roughly. The letters did not seem to be forged, and they were all true no matter how you look at them.
Rowling Warren said again: "I know many people are questioning and never believe in Ed and I. But the evil power is very powerful and has been around until now. For us mortals, our destiny depends on which side we choose to stand on."
Wen Ziren said: "I believe you and Mr. Warren, you have helped a lot of people."
This time, Wen Ziren was full of gains when he visited the Warrens. After returning to the hotel, he called George Clint and Ronan, asking Relativity Entertainment to pay more attention to the Warrens and send professionals to Bridgeport City to negotiate with the Warrens as soon as possible so as to obtain the film adaptation authorization for the Warrens and all supernatural incident investigation reports.
Ronan had heard Wan Ziren's description on the phone, which was a bit surprised, but Wan Ziren's attention just showed the great value of the Warren couple in adapting horror-themed movies.
He directly notified Robert Lee and asked Robert Lee to take his people to Bridgeport City to discuss relevant authorization matters.
Then, Wen Ziren sent him a written report with multiple photos.
Seeing the decorations of the Warren Museum of Whom and some letters from the Warrens and the church, Ronan determined that the Warrens were really a huge treasure house.
One of the major flaws of horror movies is their absurdity.
However, the supernatural horror themes about the Warren couple can be promoted using the gimmicks of real people and facts.
Ronan suddenly thought of the former "Summoning", which seemed to be a pseudo-documentary clip at the beginning, which was the Warrens and his wife...
From this point of view, Wen Ziren was also well aware of the true meaning of adapting real people and real stories.
As for the authenticity of the Warrens' experience, it doesn't matter at all.
Even if some people publicly question it, there will still be many people who believe it is authentic in Western society.
To a certain extent, the West is an idealistic society, and theism is widely spread.
The Bible and the Church are the best examples.
Robert Lee rushed to Bridgeport that day, and soon relevant news came.
The Warrens not only did not have any resistance to the film adaptation, but instead supported them very positively. The licensing fee required was not high, it was only symbolic, but there were two extremely important conditions.
First, related film adaptations or any other works cannot damage the reputation of the Warren couple.
Second, the film company will invest in maintaining the future daily operation of the Warren Museum of Mystery.
None of these are the problems. The Warren Museum of Mystery is called a museum. It is actually a small family workshop. It costs no few thousand dollars to maintain daily operations for a year.
Moreover, the existence of the Warren Museum of Mystery is also beneficial to future film adaptations.
According to Rowling Warren, the museum's collections are all from extremely dangerous supernatural events and the world's most bizarre exorcist practices. If you accidentally encounter any of the collections, you will encounter bad things.
Every 9 o'clock in the evening, the museum will open. At the same time, the strange and ancient music played automatically by the old organ, some supernatural photos, devil masks, horror torture instruments, etc. will be displayed. The dolls with evil spirits are blocked in the basement by the Warrens and their wife, among which the most evil and dangerous Annabel evil spirit dolls are.
In the photo sent by Wan Ziren to Ronan, there is a doll called "Annabelle".
There is no doubt that Relativity Entertainment will gain a lot of film adaptations with great commercial value on the Warrens.
For the horror movie universe of horror movies and planned, Wan Ziren and his wife are simply a big addition to the tiger.
According to the book Buddha in Wen Ziren's written report, after reading the investigation report of the Warren and his wife for a preliminary study, he found that at least nine so-called supernatural events have considerable value in adapting movies.
Since the "Blacklist Plan", Ronan and Relativity Entertainment have increased their efforts to find film materials, and this time they have gained a lot.
