Chapter 1469

Besides, Yang Xiaotian likes to watch movies, but he doesn't like to invest in movies. Only when he makes movies can he make a few money, unless he becomes a Disney media group. But when Mickey Mouse was born, maybe Yang Xiaotian's grandfather was not born. Yang Xiaotian didn't want to be a media player for decades.

This time, Yang Xiaotian's film making seems to be an investment in film, but in fact, it has another purpose, which can be said to be a kind of trial.

"Battle wolf 2"

You invested it? " Joe Russell was a little surprised. Although he hasn't seen "war wolf 2", he has also heard of the title of "war wolf 2". After all, it's the most box office explosion movie in the history of China, and it uses a lot of high technology. Many people in Hollywood have paid attention to it.

"Wandering earth is a very good movie that I've seen. Even in Hollywood, it's first-class. " Leonardo said, "it seems that Mr. Yang, your vision in investing in movies is also extraordinary."

"Ha ha, you're flattered. I'm just playing with tickets when I make movies." Yang Xiaotian seems very casual to say, "I came to North America, close to Hollywood, Hollywood is the center of the world's film, I don't play in Hollywood, too bad!"

"We filmmakers like your big money ticket player." Joe Russell said half jokingly and half seriously, "the movie is very strange. If you do it seriously, you may lose your pants. But if you play with tickets, you are likely to be a great success. No one can say for sure."

"I've seen your final game of Avengers 4. It's very good. I have to say that Marvel's hand is not small! From the beginning of iron man to the end of iron man, the layout of ten years has created a legendary cultural industry, which I admire very much《 The Avengers, I'm afraid, can compete with the Harry Potter series? " Yang Xiaotian said thoughtfully.

Yang Xiaotian never learns to recharge in his spare time. Instead, he goes to Zuan to play games and watch movies in private cinemas. It can be said that he is very decadent. However, Yang Xiaotian doesn't care. The employees work hard, but the boss works hard.

Most of the hot movies, Yang Xiaotian have seen, can be said to read numerous blockbusters, naturally no code in mind.

"It's a pity that the Avengers is not mine. I'm just an executor. The universe of other people's movies is mature, and how to make them is decided by one board." Joe Russell said humbly. In fact, this is not only modest, but also true. For big directors, making Marvel movies does not reflect strength.

The Batman Series directed by Nolan directly determines the shaping of Batman from the outside to the inside, which makes DC's Batman dare not break away from the framework of Nolan's Batman. Moreover, the score of "the rise of the dark knight of Batman" was once inseparable from that of "Godfather". This kind of director is the best director. Joe Russell thinks he is inferior.

"Yes, the plot of the manggai works has long been decided. Although there are a lot of chaotic settings in the parallel universe, the characters are in the existing framework, which is not a good thing for the real creators." Yang Xiaotian said with a smile, "so your chance has come."

"What chance?" Asked Joe Russell.

"When I invest in movies, I definitely want to make blockbusters. Over the years, Hollywood has been competing with IP, and the originality is getting worse and worse." Yang Xiaotian said, "I think if this goes on, the film industry will end sooner or later, so I'm sure to invest in a blockbuster with original plots!"

Yang Xiaotian said so, everyone's interest has come. Now it's the trend of the times to change movies. Marvel and DC are more and more fierce one by one. Even if they don't change movies, they are basically big IP works. There are fewer and fewer original stories. This development trend has seriously squeezed the living space of traditional filmmakers.

For example, the director of Godfather has criticized Marvel films in a rage, claiming that Marvel's films are rubbish, not films at all. The proliferation of such films will inevitably destroy the whole film art.

Although the old director's remarks are biased, they are reasonable. If you continue to play big IP, you will stifle your originality.

It will also lead to a single film ecology.

"The risk of originality is too high!" Joe Russell said, "every filmmaker actually wants to be original, but the cost of original is high. If it fails, the consequences will be unimaginable. So now the original is less and less, we are biting the existing IP such as manggai, star wars, Pirates of the Caribbean, magical animals and so on. In this way, the risk can be minimized. "

"I'm not short of money. What risks do I fear?" Yang Xiaotian made a rhyme.

"Yes, too!" "You're rich," said Joe Russell

"I'm not afraid to spend money. I only want blockbusters, no risk, no risk." Yang Xiaotian said, "I decided to let you be the director of my blockbuster."

"How much are you going to invest?" Joe Russell said.

"Start with 500 million dollars." Yang Xiaotian shows what is rich and powerful.

Five hundred million dollars, it looks like a lot. In Hollywood, it's the only big investment. But when Yang Xiaotian's factory in North America started on a large scale, he could earn this money in one day.

Anyway, Yang Xiaotian will not be short of money for anything. I hope you know.

Everyone was surprised!

It's a $500 million project!

At that time, Cameron's Avatar claimed to cost US $500 million, but in fact it was exaggerating. The production cost was US $200 million, and the publicity cost was between us $150 million and US $200 million. It's about half a billion dollars.

This kind of cost, if it is the box office alone, will take us $1.5 billion to recover. Generally, no one dares to make an investment of this scale. Most Hollywood movies, 100 million dollars is a blockbuster, 200 million dollars is A-class production.

Yang Xiaotian's mouth is 500 million US dollars. He is really rich, and the rich have expanded!

"If I really invest 500 million dollars, I will take over this project!" Joe Russell said, "anyway, marvel doesn't have any big projects recently. I also want to build a big project to prove my ability."

"What about the hero?" Yang Xiaotian looked at Leonardo and said with a smile.

"No problem." Leonardo said, "I can be ready at any time." The $500 million project is just the beginning. The investor is still Yang Xiaotian. Of course, Leonardo has no reason to refuse.

In any case, Leonardo has achieved his wish and won the Oscar. He has no pursuit in the field of art. He just needs a commercial blockbuster to prove his commercial status. In fact, Leonardo is a bit embarrassed now.

Series films, manggai films, will not go to Leonardo. It's hard for Leonardo to play a superhero.
