MTL - After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood-Chapter 260

Ultraman and Kamen Rider series are relatively much worse.

Of course, being able to be introduced by an American company and shooting the American version can also show that it is not too low.

Not to mention royal manga like Dragon Ball.

Kevin’s key acquisition here is the film and television adaptation rights of some well-known works in the United States and Japan.

It has to be said that in this era, no one really recognizes the power of copyright.

Although the price offered is not low, it is far less than the real price of copyright.

Ultraman series, Kamen Rider series, and Squad series, Kevin has acquired the adaptation rights of movies and TV series.

In addition to the copyright of a series of other works, in the Japanese region, the copyright alone cost an investment of 20 to 30 million US dollars.

Chapter 380 Selection of the Infinite Universe Movie

Kevin is convinced that these copyrights can bring him ten times and one hundred times the benefits in the future.

This is beyond doubt.

The Hollywood of the future just realized the power of IP and chose this path.

Marvel, DC, Transformers, all of them are big IP movies.

In contrast, the amount of investment received by original films is getting smaller and smaller.

The reason is also very simple, nothing more than one risk is high, and the other risk is small.

In addition to the Japanese copyright, the United States also purchased a lot.

Of course, there are also some British or other countries, but they have a lot of reputation in the United States, and they also buy a lot.

However, the overall scale is not as good as that of Japan. First, it is because of the price. Second, it is also a Hollywood film company, and it is not unmoved by copyright.

Therefore, there are not many copyrights in the United States.

Most tend to be bestsellers that are not well adapted.

After looking through some of these copyrights, Kevin finally decided to try and shoot the Infinite Universe.

With the size of the infinite universe, it is destined to be a very long story.

Kevin decided to shoot a trilogy of infinite universes first.

Judging from the size of the infinite universe, which can include everything, if a protagonist is fixed, it is undoubtedly a limit to the infinite universe.

But if the ending is not fixed, it would be better if the teams were divided into continents or countries in the original novel.

Thinking of this, Kevin couldn't help but sigh again, the first one who thought of this story was too powerful.

Of course, it's his now.

Thinking of this, Kevin immediately began to conceive of this brand-new original work in a hurry.

First of all, since it is a Hollywood movie, the protagonist is naturally the American team, and the people in the team are all from the American continent.

Writing here, Kevin paused the pen in his hand and began to transform the setting of the infinite universe according to his own ideas.

First of all, the main **** space is transformed into an infinite space, and the large light ball remains unchanged, but it is set as a four-dimensional technology product.

It is an extra-dimensional machine, which is specifically set in the third dimension to be able to create things in the void and create everything. In short, it is to lean in the direction of God.

As for the relationship with God at the beginning, it was directly abandoned by Kevin.

There are a lot of Christians in this country. If something is not done well, and they are inevitably boycotted by demonstrations, it will be troublesome.

After careful consideration, Kevin decided to give up the idea.

Reconstruct a history.

The intellectual brain machine of the four-dimensional universe is a preliminary setting.

However, in the movie, there is no hurry to reveal the origin of this big ball of light, just set a high-level name, such as the name of the master of the era, and it will be finished.

It is best to leave enough space for the audience to make up their minds.

Then there is the setting of the protagonist.

An ordinary-looking office worker, unremarkable, this is called a sense of substitution.

Of course, in the movie, in order to compare and exchange rewards to become handsome, naturally you can't really find an ordinary person.

In the early stage, make-up was used to cover up the handsomeness, and after the rewards were exchanged in the later stage, the real appearance was displayed.

As for the actors, apart from Liang Tang, I will not choose any other candidates.

The first appearance of the specific infinite universe, Kevin intends to use the rights of six films, to show in three films.

To put it simply, it is the first movie of unlimited streaming, and two movies will be used.

As for what movie to use, Kevin has already thought about it.

One is 007.

As MGM's ace work, after MGM was bought by Kevin, it fell into Kevin's hands.

However, the 007 series is currently in a low period, and there is no new idea to shoot, and it does not get the attention of the audience.

But the basic disk of 007 is still stable.

It has been nearly forty years since the first film of 007 was released in 1962.

This has been jointly maintained by nineteen films, and successfully raised the status of this IP.

It's worth mentioning that just last year, MGM single-handedly produced a sequel to 007.

After receiving the business support of Chenxi Films, MGM's funds have become abundant as a whole, and it is no longer the same as when it was in the hands of casino tycoons and needed to be responsible for its own profits and losses.

To put it simply, the money on hand starts to wave.

Of course, in fact, it is just waving with Kevin's money.

But this is what Kevin allows.

MGM is also somewhat of a gold brand in Hollywood. Although it is almost semi-integrated with Chenxi movies now, there is also a competitive relationship.

The status is definitely not comparable to the morning movie founded by Kevin, but Leiter will not admit defeat.

With the financial support, Leiter also raised his motivation and is about to take MGM to a new height.

This 007 project is tossed by MGM.

However, in MGM's business, Kevin rarely interferes. He only gives financial support. Although Leiter will report on specific business regularly, Kevin is somewhat less attentive.

This is also no way, after all, Kevin is just a man, not a god.

As the company's business grows, it's normal to start running out of energy.

MGM, in Kevin's view, actually has potential, but before that, because there was no capital support, the cost of trial and error was too high.

It may take seven or eight years to be able to afford the loss of a major production.

In this case, it is naturally difficult to turn over.

It's different now, after receiving stable financial support, plus Kevin kept most of the profits in the company as the company's development funds.

MGM was able to bear the loss of a big production in two years, which made MGM suddenly spend a lot of money.

Last year's 007 Black Sun Crisis was LTECH's great effort.

Including the publicity fee, the production cost of 135 million US dollars has won the global box office of 360 million US dollars, which is considered to be a big profit of tens of millions.

Coupled with the influence of driving IP, the sales of surrounding areas have greatly increased, and the overall scattered products can also earn 100 million US dollars.

It may not be a big deal compared to Dawn Movies, but in fact, this is the norm in Hollywood.

The projects of Chenxi Films are all selected by Kevin, and it is difficult to lose money.

Many of them are later explosive projects.

Therefore, the profit ratio can be so exaggerated.

But Kevin also felt that these items were used less and less.

For this reason, he began to rush into the infinite universe.

It is to integrate resources and revive those copyrights one by one.

The original Infinite Horror, using Resident Evil as the first film.

Too bad the movie hasn't been released yet.

At the same time, as a movie, this kind of zombie movie actually has a limited audience and is more suitable for use as a source of opponent's ability, or the opponent's world background.

Chapter 381 Talking

In Kevin's setting, a trilogy and six films are used to express the worldview of the infinite world.

In the sixth movie, Kevin prepares to arrange a team fight.

You can arrange a zombie ability enhancement, tyrant or something for the protagonist's opponent.

These are all good settings.

As for the movies selected among the movies, there are several requirements. First, the subject matter cannot be niche.

Second, the popularity should be high.

Such as 007, although now in decline.

But once brilliant.

This is the most suitable.

At the same time, the actors of 007 are actually very good to invite.

Of course, Kevin will not choose the current 007.

That is undoubtedly an intentional increase in cost.

At the same time, the two movie worlds in the movie are naturally different.

And the 007 series, the first part, it takes up to 30 minutes to solve the battle.

More pen and ink will be placed in the second film.

As a director, Kevin knows exactly what the audience wants to see.

In such a magical space, of course, what the audience wants to see is the scene where the protagonist acquires superpowers and then enters the movie world to kill the Quartet.

Therefore, the first thirty minutes are actually used to shape the characters of the protagonist and supporting roles.

After the protagonist gains growth and rewards in the first movie and gets to know his teammates, he will show his strength in the second movie.

As for what to use for the second movie,

This also requires Kevin to think about it.

Kevin recalled in his mind the Dawn movie and all the movies he has had an impression of until now by MGM, and then selected one by one, and then gave up.

The first part of the series is always the hardest and takes the most energy.

Especially since it's an original story.

Although it involves the content and copyright of the two films.

But when the reincarnation involves these plots, it will naturally change, in fact, it is no less than re-shooting.

Oh, that is Kevin's name for the person chosen by the Dimension Master, and he was lazy to change this.

Kevin is working hard.

Mitt is very handsome.

I didn't have too much pressure on me, and yesterday's response was pretty good.

So last night, he went out for a leisurely lap.

I have to say that, as a two-dimensional element, Mitt is still quite intimidated.

At this time, you can use your busyness to prevaricate at home.

Don't get entangled with your wife.
