From a business perspective, investing in a musical is obviously not a good idea!

Not Bollywood

In recent years, the musical and dance genre in Hollywood has almost disappeared. Counting "Moulin Rouge" and "Chicago" were all works from more than ten years ago!

Even if there is "Mamma Mia", it is an adaptation of a classic Broadway musical.

Think about it, Spielberg later put "West Side Story" on the big screen, and the North American box office was only 38 million!

What's more, "La La Land" is jazz...

There is no way, the role of the male protagonist Sebastian is just like this, a complete old-school man.

Only old-school men will stubbornly love jazz music that has gradually disappeared...

Listening to vinyl and cassettes, dreaming of resurrecting that jazz club.

Shen Changlin invested in "La La Land" mainly because of its commercial effect. Of course, the prize-winning effect was also taken into consideration.

However, he is not particularly interested in Oscar, otherwise, he would definitely invest in "Moonlight"...

"La La Land" cost $30 million, which is the studio's largest investment to date. By the way, Damian Chazelle originally invited Emma Watson and Miles Teller. …

The former was attracted by Disney's live-action version of "Beauty and the Beast", while the latter accepted "The Arms Dealer" under the advice of her agent.

Of course, there is another theory that Emma Watson doesn't want to come to Los Angeles because she is a big name, so she asked the crew to go to London for filming...

And then got fired!

Fortunately, Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone announced that they would join...

Both of them received a salary of US$2 million, and then each received 8% of the profit share...

Shen Changlin asked Yang Fan curiously: "Did she really ask the crew to move to London for filming?"

Yang Fan nodded: "Yes, and she refused the crew's rehearsal request...it's normal. After all, "Beauty and the Beast" is a major Disney production. If it were me, I would do the same thing!"

…

Domestically, probably due to dissatisfaction with some malicious reports from some self-media, Changlin Film and Television disclosed the investment share of "Jurassic World" - accounting for one-third of the total investment!

It took "Jurassic World" 13 days to cross one billion US dollars at the global box office, which is the fastest time in movie history.

All fools know that Changlin Film and Television has made a lot of money this time!

Indeed, the official website of Changlin Film and Television disclosed that this investment is expected to bring in income of US$180 million.

By the way, it also announced three major projects: "Superman", "Rampage" and "Deadpool". Except for "Rampage", the other two projects are the main investment.

"Rampage" is adapted from a North American arcade game in the 1980s, which is a relatively famous IP...

Warner didn't give Changlin Film and Television much of its share - less than a quarter.

Not only that, Changlin Film and Television also disclosed the revenue derived from the copyright of "The Return of the Monkey King" - especially the game revenue. The mobile game has been online for half a month, with an average daily revenue of over 10 million!

"We just want to make movies quietly and don't want to participate in capital operations. Please let some self-media let us go..."

Have you let it go?

No, there were a bunch of posts boasting about Changlin Film and Television...

Many self-media also turned their guns and started licking it.

The trend is here. If the audience is interested in Changlin Film and Television, of course they should give it a try!

Therefore, Shen Changlin has become a popular figure even though he is abroad - Chui Changlin Film and Television must start with Shen Changlin!

Shen Changlin doesn't feel that much. He made a guest appearance as a casting director in North America... I just feel that the sugar-coated bullets of capitalism are too hard to refuse!

By the way, I understand Yang Fan’s troubles...

I just sent a Yangma with an appearance score of 90 or above, and then came in a girl who is very energetic at first glance...

After three days, he also had dark circles under his eyes...

Well, the latest work of the studio is called "Jungle Cabin". Shen Changlin read the script and realized, damn, it's a story about a group of college students going to a cabin for vacation and being killed by ghosts one after another. It's very similar to a domestic horror film, so I asked about it. , then I realized that Zhennima was inspired by domestic horror films...

I thought it was just a bad movie, but after a second look, I found that the script actually touches on religion...

Get taller now!

In addition, the starring role includes Emma Roberts - this girl is considered the studio's favorite heroine!

The cost was actually US$9 million, which is considered high among B-level movies...

There were hundreds of girls lined up for the audition...all kinds of skin colors!

Many of them are models who have crossed over from other fields...

Three days later, Shen Changlin really didn't want to do any more auditions, so he made an appointment with someone from Warner...

At this time, "Rampage" has already been released - the box office on the first day was 13 million US dollars, which was still in line with expectations!

…

After talking about the reboot of "Joker", Warner's newly appointed DC Vice President Tal Nong asked Shen Changlin: "How much does Director Shen know about DC?"

"Knowing Batman and Superman..."

Shen Changlin still respects Tal nong. She is the producer of "The Meg" and "Godzilla"!

"Don't you know Wonder Woman and Justice League?"

Shen Changlin shook his head: "My childhood was basically accompanied by Japanese cartoons and Transformers..."

"That's such a shame!"

tal nong shook his head...

"What's the problem?"

"..."Justice League" was ruined..." Tal Nong looked at Shen Changlin and explained: ""Justice League" is the DC version of "Avengers"..."

"…oh."

Shen Changlin didn't answer the call. He has nothing to do with the destruction of the Justice League...

Let’s not talk about the taillight version. The same goes for Zack Snyder’s four-hour version of “Justice League.” Batman is just a piece of trash, ranked last in combat power. It doesn’t reflect the feeling of Batman’s master strategist at all. …

You know "Justice League", Batman is the brain!

What can be done about the tail lights?

The main plot is the coming of crisis - the gathering of heroes - the resurrection of Superman - the final battle. The plot also revolves around the struggle for three mother boxes. How can you make it up?

The six heroes on horseback also have time to introduce the three new ones...

No one can handle this thing. Unless two heroes are cut off, "Justice League", which does not have enough preparation for a single movie, has so many new characters popping up all at once that it is impossible to even think about the 120-minute theatrical version. .

tal nong complained: "Zack Snyder insisted on three hours... He needs time to create a more fleshed-out character!"

Shen Changlin shook his head: "Don't talk about character creation in popcorn movies. If the plot is too rich, it will be a kind of torture for viewers who have no background knowledge of the DC universe and so-called feelings..."

Warner asked you to make commercial films, not just to satisfy fans!

tal nong's eyes lit up: "You think so too?"

"Um…"

"So are you interested in directing a DC solo movie?"

"Let's talk again!"

Shen Changlin waved his hand...

He has no idea about superheroes...

"DC will next produce "Wonder Woman", "The Flash", "Aquaman"..."

Shen Changlin smiled bitterly: "I don't know anything..."

“…It’s so difficult!”

"Warner has been in North America for more than a hundred years, so he will definitely be able to think of a solution!"
Chapter completed!
