Chapter 710： Life and death fighting

"You have time, go and play this game." Uvi-Bauer strongly recommends his love: "The playability and the story behind it are both epic."

Ronan nodded: "I will take time to take a look."

Uvi-Bauer suddenly became worried: "Blizzard's group of people are all brainy."

"No progress?" Ronan asked.

Uvi-Bauer smiled helplessly: "Stubborn is like a stone, but I won't give up."

Ronan encouraged: "Come slowly, don't worry."

For some reason, Ronan suddenly felt that Uvi-Bauer was like a spare tire. He desperately knelt and licked the goddess Blizzard and Warcraft in his heart. The other party refused him every time, but the next time he went, he continued to receive him, and seemed to be secretly again. Pass on hope.

Green teas in the real world, don’t they treat spare tires like this?

Blizzard probably knows that behind Uvi-Bauer is Relativity Entertainment. What if you want to adapt a movie in the future? No matter what the situation is, there is always a bottom line.

But Ronan didn't mean to remind Uvi Bauer. The mentality of the spare tires is very peculiar. People who wake them up often become objects of disgust and hatred.

Uvi-Bauer is very positive, not only for Blizzard, but also for the adaptation of the game: "After the end of "Draculaline", I plan to start a new project."

Ronan understood what he meant and asked directly: "Do you have a goal?"

Uvi-Bauer said with a smile: "It's still a movie adapted from a game. I saw two games, but they are all made by islanders."

Ronan said: "It doesn't matter, the theory of relativity has business dealings with islanders, so it is not difficult to get copyright."

After the last Uvi-Bauer suggestion, Robert Lee's copyright and legal department has obtained the copyrights of many island games and comics. The islanders have "Ghost in the Shell" and "Bunker Dream".

The latter was originally intended to impress James Cameron, but it didn't come in handy.

The film rights of island games or comics are really cheap compared to North America.

In the short term, it will not invest in film adaptations. This is mainly about hoarding copyrights.

"The two games, one is called "Life and Death Fighting", is a fighting game of combat type." Uvi-Bauer said simply: "The other is called "Silent Hill", which is a psychological horror survival game."

Although he has never played before, Ronan is not unfamiliar with these two names.

Ronan quickly made a decision: "You first complete the post-production of "Vampire Lane" with peace of mind. I will ask people to take the copyrights of "Life and Death Fight" and "Silent Hill"."

Uvi-Bauer said quickly: "I have inquired that the copyright of "Life and Death Fighting" is still in the hands of game manufacturers, but "Silent Hill" has been bought."

Ronan nodded, "I will let you know if I have specific news."

Uvi-Bauer did not stay any longer: "I am going to Blizzard."

Ronan waved his hand: "Go."

After Uvi Bauer left, Ronan first checked the company’s copyright library. In the past two years or so, in addition to his designated works, Robert Lee has also bought many novels, memoirs, and memoirs that are not expensive and valuable. Copyright of works such as comics and games.

It doesn't cost much, it enriches the company's copyright library, and it may be available anytime.

Ronan opened the copyright database search software, selected the game category, and clicked on the island country. Many game names appeared.

To a little surprise, "Silent Hill" is listed impressively.

indicates that at the beginning of this year, the copyright and legal department bought the film and television rights from Konami in the island country.

The copyright library has a detailed introduction. "Silent Hill" is a psychological horror survival game. Konami was released at the end of the last century. The plot is developed in a movie-like manner. Different choices during the game process will affect the ending. The player is completely in control Hands.

Once this game was adapted into a movie, Ronan remembered to watch it, as if the actor was Sean Bing, who died in various ways in the movie.

This horror film is still pretty good, and the group of faceless nurses is impressive.

The commercial success or failure of the film adaptation is not clear to Ronan, but personally, "Silent Hill" is much better than the last few films of "Resident Evil".

This game can be adapted, but the scale of investment must be limited when the game is adapted to a movie.

Ronan extracted "Silent Hill" separately and included it in the project schedule.

The Ministry of Copyright and Legal Affairs has not only obtained the right to adapt "Silent Hill" from Konami, but also the copyright of "Contra" and "Metal Gear" in the film library list.

"Contra" is so famous that it is a childhood memory of many people, and its spread in the East even far exceeds that of "Transformers."

For people born around the 1980s, many of them have played this game in the game room or on card game consoles such as Xiaobawang. Those familiar with Hollywood can also find that the two protagonists look like Stallone and Shi Wasinger.

Ronan saw this name, and he can still remember when he went to the game room to play "Contra" when he was in middle school in the small town, and was arrested by the disguised director of the Political and Education Office.

The director of the Political and Education Office of that era was as impressive as "Contra" and a shadow of many people's growth.

If you have not battled wits and courage with the director of the Political Education Office, your middle school career will be incomplete.

"Contra" and "Metal Gear", Ronan doesn't remember any related film adaptations, so I will temporarily put them in the copyright library.

Ronan did not find the copyright of "Life and Death Fighting" in the copyright library of Relativity Entertainment. After checking on the Internet, he found that several of the protagonists of the game are women.

Female fighting games, seemingly promising?

There seem to be female ufo or wwe players in the United States? There should be a decent figure and appearance.

Also, actresses with outstanding appearances must be required. Sexy and hot beauties wear cool uniforms and fight on the screen. Dissatisfaction is just a word, don’t persuade, just do it!

There may be a market.

Compared to "Silent Hill", perhaps this game adaptation is more suitable for Uvi Bauer.

Ronan closed the webpage and sent a related email to Robert Lee through the company's office system, asking the Copyright and Legal Affairs Department to find an islander to buy the copyright.

Of course, for the overall strategy of relativistic entertainment, games are just the smallest item category.

Because when a game meets a movie, it may not be sparks, but vomit.

This kind of movie seems to have been accompanied by the dilemma of game fans not admitting to not buying it from ordinary audiences from the very beginning. This kind of situation of fathers and mothers not loving can be said to be the normal state of game adaptation movies.

Nowadays, commercial films rely more and more on adaptations. In the future, game copyrights will inevitably become a major type that cannot be ignored. After all, game adaptation films have their own fans and influence.

The main force in the commercial film market is teenagers. These teenagers tend to spend their money on what they love.

In some respects, the previous "Warcraft" is a pity. On the surface, this game is adapted from a movie. On the surface, it has all the elements of a big-selling movie.

The result is still very unsatisfactory. In order to recover the huge investment, Blizzard finally even auctioned the shooting props...

As for the sequel, it naturally becomes a lifetime series.

Of course, the magical epic film is not easy to shoot, the market is down and other factors can not be ignored.

Careful calculations, except for the six films in the "Lord of the Rings" series filmed by Peter Jackson, other magical epics that have invested heavily in production, the results are not ideal.

Even if Ridley Scott is in charge of the "Pharaoh and the King" adapted from the well-known "Exodus" in the Bible, don't let it go.

When it comes to audience and spread, "World of Warcraft" is much worse than "Exodus".

The director's level is worse by more than one grade.

From these aspects, it seems that it's not too innocent.

Ronan has not yet summed up any good experience, the most effective way to avoid losses is to control the scale of investment in game adaptation movie projects.

At present, we cannot be too optimistic about the game-adapted film market, and large investment in large-scale production cannot attract enough audiences.

Many small production adaptations can be surprisingly successful.

In the afternoon, Ronan went to the Hughes Aircraft Factory. The crew of "Fast and Furious 3" has begun to assemble here, and the main actors currently identified have also entered the crew to start preliminary preparations.

There are still some roles that need to be resolved through auditions.

As Jessica Felton went to Europe to talk about advertising sponsorship, the crew was temporarily in charge of Justin Lin.

Walking in the set set-up studio, Justin Lin introduced Ronan to the latest developments of the crew: “According to the plan, the racing family will be a multi-racial fusion. There is a mixed race Dawn Johnson, and the traditional white role is Paul- Walker, the Latino has Jordana BrewsterThe black is Tyrese Gibson..."

He glanced at the actors who were auditioning not far away. They were all Asian actresses: "This newly added female character will be Asian. The candidate is not yet decided, and the first audition has just begun."

Many Asian actresses sit in the temporary waiting area created by the crew. Because it is the first audition, no makeup is required. The audition speed is very fast. There are frequent actresses coming in and out of the audition room.

Seeing that many of them have flat noses, small eyes and freckled faces, Ronan shook his head secretly, and said to Justin Lin: "This Asian character wants to win the Asian market for us and choose an actress who fits Asian aesthetics. "

Justin Lin understood Ronan's meaning and said, "Yes."

Ronan asked, "What about the Chinese character? Has anyone chosen it?"

"I haven't looked for it yet." Justin Lin said: "The Chinese character will not be added until the next one. It's not too late to look for when the fourth one is prepared."

Ronan nodded slightly: "Yes."

Many actresses found them and were a little bit ready to move. Ronan and Justin Lin didn't stay here much. They left the studio and walked to the open-air studio not far away.

hadn't walked far, he heard a huge engine roar, which was obviously the sound of a high-power engine.

Normally, this is the sound made by a sports car.
