Robert Eagle's meaning is actually very simple. Let's first see where the final box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" will go. This will become a criterion for his attitude towards Evan Bell. If the film has a global box office It is still possible to cross the threshold of one billion - not to mention one billion, there are more than 900 million, then this sequel is imperative, no matter how difficult it is, Robert Eagle has to bite the bullet and go the other way, there is a lot of room for it
In addition, since everyone knows that the problem that Evan Bell can't get around is the script, then Robert Eagle feels that he can prepare the script first. The stories of "Pirates of the Caribbean" are all created by Disney itself. They can think about whether there is a suitable story when they go to meet Evan Bell, Jerry Bruckheimer and Robert Iger will also have more confidence, otherwise they will be really difficult in front of Evan Bell. set up the momentum
It is for these reasons that the media did not receive any rumors about "Pirates of the Caribbean 4", and the wind was calm, making people think that Disney is really going to end the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series.
In fact, the real insiders all know that the film company is the vampire "Spider-Man" trilogy finished shooting, in fact, there are not too many stories to shoot, but Sony Columbia Pictures is still brewing, another method to continue to squeeze The remaining value of this series is currently being discussed internally, so the media has not received any news at all, and only top producers like Jerry Bruckheimer can hear some clues.
Similarly, Disney is not a fool. How could it be possible to look at a big cake there without squinting, not to mention, it will take some time for the lighting entertainment company to be able to function. Disney is now in the stage of self-cultivation and recuperation, and it is absolutely impossible to give up any An opportunity to recover
So in general, everything is a turbulent dark tide, brewing the day that will be announced to the world.
No matter what Robert Eagle and Jerry Bruckheimer think, Evan Bell really doesn't have time to pay attention to them, not to mention that he doesn't even know what Disney is about. Even if he does, he has recently There was no time for the post-production of "There Will Be Blood" that consumed almost all of Evan Bell's energy, he was completely pained and happy
The pace of summer has sped up a lot with the arrival of June. The North American film market has been turned upside down by a group of "little threes" and Evan Bell is taking a break from his busy schedule. He also released his fourth album "Four" single "Firefly es"
Evan Bell's "Four" album has created countless brilliance after the release, but the density of singles has declined. Last year, there were only "Long Live da" and "This is Love t.s".
In fact, this is nothing. For Evan Bell's loyal fans, the album is enough to satisfy their cravings. In addition to direct sales benefits, there are two strategic reasons for the release of singles. One is to maintain the singer's exposure and continue to promote it; The second is that singles drive album sales, and these strategies are not applicable to Evan Bell, so his singles are released infrequently, which is expected
This time, the release of "Firefly" was also ridiculed by the media as "fan welfare". The media said that Evan Bell was not released to release a single, but to satisfy the fans' thoughts of him. Tell all fans" Hey, actually, I'm still insisting on music."
Although this is just a joke, it is true. The brilliance of this album "Four" does not need to be repeated. Even after entering 2007, the sales volume is still very bright, and the release of singles is mostly just fan welfare.
However, Evan Bell is very serious about "Firefly" this time. Evan Bell doesn't care about what the single can achieve, but he hopes to do his best every time the single is released, otherwise it is better not to release it.
Evan Bell personally drew the animation image and sub-shot sketches, and then the Pixar technicians were responsible for materialization, and Evan Bell took the director's position and produced a music video for "Firefly" with his heart. Attitude is vividly reflected in the final product
The lyrics of the song "Fireflies" are already beautiful, like "Thousands of fireflies light up my whole dream", "They are flying in the air, shedding tears", "I got a thousand fireflies" Embrace, the warmth from the ten thousand flying fireflies" lyrics can be seen everywhere, and with its rhythm and light music style, the bright and sunny atmosphere of June is coming.
And this animated music video produced by Evan Bell, produced by Pixar, is of course absolutely guaranteed. This music video tells a simple story.
A six-year-old boy and a little girl climbed up the hillside to watch the stars. Surrounded by the stars and countless fireflies, the beauty and tranquility of nature were vividly displayed. The two children chased, laughed and laughed on the top of the mountain. Playing around, the two children ran home sweating profusely when the parents’ calls came from a distance, and then went to bed. Walking in the dark night, lighting up their dreams In that magnificent dream, there are flowers, green trees, flowing water, fish, blue sky, and white clouds...
The story of the entire "Firefly" music video is actually very simple, but the vivid pictures, natural characters, and sincere laughter make everyone unconsciously return to the beauty of childhood, the most simple childlike interest. , but easily awakens the simplicity of nature and the innocence of childhood. This is also praised by the media as an excellent medium for awakening childhood.
In fact, when Evan Bell wrote this song, it was relatively simple. He was attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of him and couldn't help sighing, so "Firefly" was born. But after the release of this single, whether it is the music video It's beautiful, but it's still the beauty of the song, including Evan Bell's design of the single cover: under a lush grassland, two children stand on the grassland, looking up at the sky full of stars. The color of the entire cover is that the night fades away, The hazy feeling of the dawn of dawn, the countless stars in the sky are only vague shadows, but the remaining light is still dazzling, and with the orange mist of the sunrise, the whole picture is so beautiful that all the details can be Seeing that "Firefly" is the purest and most beautiful admiration for nature, "Firefly" was favored by Leonardo DiCaprio
At the Oscars this year, Leonardo DiCaprio took the stage and called for the protection of the environment in person. He has always spared no effort in protecting the environment. The Prio Foundation "specially contributes to environmental protection public welfare undertakings" In Hollywood, Leonardo DiCaprio has always had the title of "environmental activist", which shows his focus on this aspect.
After hearing the song "Firefly", Leonardo DiCaprio thought this song was very suitable as the theme song for this year's environmental protection public welfare, so he called Evan Bell directly and asked for authorization Although Wen Bell was a little surprised that "Firefly" was actually favored by Leonardo DiCaprio, which was quite different from the original intention of creation, he did not hesitate and agreed directly "Since the I plan to show my support, so all the income from the single 'Firefly' will also be donated to your foundation, which is my contribution to the cause of environmental protection."
"What's the income from donating a single, or you donate all the income from 'Pirates of the Caribbean 3'" Leonardo DiCaprio and Evan Bell are also open-mouthed, laughing It may not be clear to others, but Leonardo DiCaprio knows it. Evan Bell can take 20% of the box office in addition to the salary for filming "Pirates of the Caribbean 3". Dividends, so it is estimated that this time the income will definitely exceed 100 million US dollars, and he is also planning to extort some.
Evan Bell laughed heartily, "You want me to support the cause of environmental protection You have to find your target, 'Wild Survival' will land in Toronto in September. After the release, I will give you half of the box office dividends. , how?" "Wild Survival" itself is a work about returning to nature, and it is also closer to Leonardo DiCaprio's charitable goals, so it is naturally more appropriate
Leonardo DiCaprio thinks about the same reason, he can't help but nod his head, but he said, "You shouldn't be reluctant to earn the income of 'Pirates of the Caribbean 3'." "No matter how bad the box office is, it's impossible to pass "Pirates of the Caribbean 3". This is absolutely true, but Leonardo DiCaprio is just joking, and then he said, "There is a charity party this week. In Manhattan, you also attended a press conference on the same day, and I also announced the news that 'Firefly' will be the theme song for this charity."
Evan Bell's generosity did not surprise Leonardo DiCaprio at all, but Leonardo DiCaprio thought of Evan Bell's powerful appeal and also played Snake with stick on the stick, made an invitation
"Weekend?" Evan Bell asked, thinking back to his schedule for the week. "Okay, but dinner is yours."
