The ip of "Transformers" can be described as a phenomenal work.
Accompanying the "Transformers" live-action movie is not only a big box office.
There is also a war of words from fans, film critics, and audiences.
Those who love are willing to praise it to the sky, and those who hate it will not hesitate to cast it as worthless.
Peter Jackson looked at Qin Shou, his eyes full of anticipation, and asked: "Actually, Mr. Qin, some of the investors in "Transformers" didn't have confidence in it, so they chose to divest.
"I ask Scarlett this time, but I actually need an investment of 40 million . dollars."
The widow Scarlett was a little stunned when she heard the words of the bearded Peter Jackson, "Forty million dollars?"
This number is too exaggerated.
Marvel's total investment in "Iron Man 1" is only 30 million US dollars.
Good guy, this anime adaptation theme can cost 40 million US dollars?
Although Scarlett starred in a Marvel movie, she didn't quite understand comics, and some fanatical comics fans.
Mainly, she is also a girl, and she really has no interest in Marvel and DC comics.
Even if she was acting as the widow, Scarlett acted in accordance with the strict standards of the investor.
The most is to look at the personal character setting of the widow sister, to try to figure out the character of this glamorous female agent.
"Forty million dollars is no problem."
Qin Shou said with a faint smile: "The money is actually not too much, of course the premise is that you really have the confidence to make this film well.
"At the beginning of the preparations for the "Transformers" film, fans and the design team launched a debate about whether to nostalgia or embrace the new.
Peter Jackson said with a wry smile: "The Transformers in the G1 cartoons are simple and rough in appearance, but full of drama inside, which is the favorite of fans."
"Actually, making this film well depends on the tastes of animation fans."
"When it comes to CG movies, in order to meet the needs of the times and the best visual effects, the behind-the-scenes team will give the robots plastic surgery."
"Don't the boys all like cool enough special effects?"
The widow Scarlett couldn't help asking.
In her eyes.
The complicated details of the parts and the transparent metal quality are enough to give people a strong sense of the future.
Especially the special effects of "Iron Man 1", Marvel used it just right, which made the audience feel very satisfied.
"Actually, good special effects may not satisfy those people.
Peter Jackson smiled wryly: "Sometimes, the special effects are too good, and it is far from the image of Transformers in the minds of die-hard fans. From the very beginning, the war of words has already started.
"It's very difficult for a guru to reconcile the opinions of fans." Qin Shou has also heard about this incident.
After "Transformers" 1 appeared on the screen and achieved success.
The word-of-mouth battle intensified even after the movie was released.
Those who love it appreciate its dazzling visual effects and exciting action scenes.
Sing it for making a childhood dream come true, bringing the plastic robot in your hands to the big screen with a whole new effect.
Those who hate it, scolding it for ruining their childhood memories, are just an empty shell wrapped in special explosion effects.
The freshness of the first "Transformers" Rotten Tomatoes is 57%, which has not yet crossed the passing line.
But the popcorn index given by the audience was as high as 85%, which shows that everyone really enjoyed the audio-visual feast in the theater.
Peter Jackson felt that Qin Shou seemed to be very good at the taste of the American people.
He couldn't help but said: "Actually, Mr. Qin, I personally recommend you to invest in this "Transformers"."
Peter Jackson was just scared.
Afraid that Qin Shou felt that the money was too much.
In fact, it is true. The investment and publicity expenses spent on filming "Transformers" alone exceeded five million dollars.
What's more, there will be an additional budget in the follow-up, which is another large sum of money.
But I really couldn't find any investors.
For this reason, Peter Jackson must not let Qin Shou go easily.
If you can invest more, you will have more hope.
And the greater the hope, the more confident Peter Jackson is to do this well.
Money, the more the better, is there any problem in the world that more money can’t solve?
"There is no problem with investment. I am actually very optimistic about "Transformers." Qin Shou responded very simply
In fact, he has a natural interest in investing in "Transformers" proposed by Peter Jackson.
Everyone knows that Transformers will be a big IP in the future.
However, it is still a troublesome thing to successfully introduce into the country.
After all, foreign films are rarely introduced in China. After all, their values are not in line with the aesthetics of contemporary young people.
When everyone is still worried about housing prices.
You Europeans and Americans are all heroic, and you can’t accept it when you go to the interstellar to fight aliens.
It can be said that "Transformers" has almost no visual weaknesses.
The director of "Transformers" gave full play to his usual grasp of the commercial film model.
Play what you are best at, play what others can't afford, and play what makes you amazing.
The focus of the war of words lies in the plot setting and character creation.
Of course, young people will definitely like it very much, because excitement is the only belief that human beings pursue.
"Really?!" Peter Jackson was stunned.
Can Qin Shou invest in "Transformers" so easily?
And I didn't waste much time talking about the content of the script, and I was able to pass Qin Shou.
It's unbelievable how smooth the process was.
Peter Jackson was also a little stunned.
Are there so many rich people in this Yanhuang land?
You can take out 40 million US dollars to invest casually.
If you fail, are you not afraid?
The widow Scarlett was also slightly taken aback.
I just want to find Peter Jackson to try.
In fact, hope is still not as big as imagined.
Especially when Peter Jackson quoted $40 million.
She nearly rolled her eyes.
Isn't it a waste of money to invest so much money in the script of an anime adaptation movie?
Even if Qin received a lot of money, he wouldn't panic.
"But I also have a small request here, I hope you can meet me."
Qin Shou looked at Peter Jackson's excited look, and interrupted: "That is, if this movie can be introduced to Yanhuang, I hope to distribute it to Guangming Film and Television under my subsidiary.
As long as Peter Jackson sees the investment, who will control where it will be distributed in cinemas in the future?
He hastily said: "That's no problem, Mr. Qin, as long as "Transformers" is filmed, I will definitely entrust Yanhuang Market to you. This is a precious favor I owe you."
Qin Shou nodded with a smile, "Well, with your words, I don't need to worry."
But then he thought of it.
China Film may not be able to pass it?
The domestic management of this thing has always been very strict.
However, the "Transformers" series represents the top level of Hollywood film production.
Since the release of the work, it has a large number of loyal fans at home and abroad.
It also made the film a success at the box office.
The first work of the "Transformers" series won 270 million box office in Yanhuang.
This achievement was very impressive back then, no wonder Qin Shou praised "Transformers" so much.
Of course, Qin Shou planned to leave it to Mr. Wang Shan Wang whether he could pass the trial.
Who told others to have this ability?
~By the way, I heard you talking about Transformers, how is the plot of this movie?" Scarlett, the widow sister, couldn't help asking.
Speaking of which, Peter Jackson is a different person.
He said excitedly: "This story is actually a story of two alien mechanical civilizations fighting for the final victory."
"Among them, the enemy Megatron came to the earth in order to search for the energy block that provided the life of the Cybertronians. At the North Pole, he was strongly disturbed by the magnetic field and was accidentally frozen under the ice layer."
"And with the help of scientists who accidentally fell into the ice valley, Megatron scanned the information about the energy block onto the glasses of the scientists."
"The protagonist Sam is a high school student whose life is not satisfactory. No one in the school believes what he tells about the history of this pair of glasses."
"Disappointed, Sam put the glasses up for auction online, but never got interest from buyers."
"During this time, my father gave him a dilapidated car, which happened to be the transformation of the Autobot member Bumblebee.
"The Bumblebee carrying Sam helped Sam get a beautiful girlfriend, Mikaela Baines, but they were soon attacked by the Decepticons, and Optimus Prime arrived with other Autobots. "
"This is the beginning of a robot war."
Scarlett, the widow, curled her lips, "It's a luxury car again, beauties, don't you think of beauties too superficially?"
"What's wrong with being superficial (Li Wang's)?"
Qin Shou smiled, hugged Scarlett's shoulder affectionately and said with a smile: "Go to the casting, and I'll join in the fun by the way.
Qin Shou thought of Megan Fox.
This is a smash hit female star.
When she starred in "Transformers", it caused a sensation among many fans at that time.
Beautiful and sexy.
In heroic movies, the role of women can be played here, which is already full marks.
"Of course." Megan Fox naturally had no possibility of refusing.
He smiled and said to Qin Shou: "I'm sure there will be many beautiful women who will be intoxicated by you, Mr. Qin."
"Then I'll wait and see." Qin Shou smiled knowingly, and was a little eager to try.
After all, it is also the first time for Qin Shou to cast a role in Hollywood, USA.
It would be a lie to say that I am not excited.
Young girls and young actresses in the United States have a short shelf life.
But in the most active years of their lives, they were undoubtedly the most brilliant and dazzling.
Soon, the casting day arrived.
Many beautiful beauties are famous here.
Competition in Hollywood is brutal.
Actresses have no promotion channels, and what greets them is the painful days when their youth is gone and they will never come again.
In order to be famous and earn money at the youngest age.
It can be said that it is the character of this generation of Hollywood actresses to use everything to the extreme. .
