I Know Everything

Chapter 618: Explosive Movie

Ten minutes later, Todd Phillips sat in Shen Huan's villa, accepting the scrutiny of two oriental women.

Eastern and Western cultures are different, he didn't know who these two belonged to Shen Huan, so he didn't dare to say hello rashly.

However, to be able to enter Shen Huan's villa, Todd Phillips understood that it must be the word clown that he used before.

He was right.

It was the character of the Joker who saved him.

As one of fishing line's favorite recreational activities, Shen Huan still likes movies very much.

So it just so happens that he's seen this movie with the Joker as the main character.

It was the end of 2019, and a movie called Joker was born, which swept more than 1 billion US dollars in box office worldwide, directly surpassing Deadpool and becoming the number one R-rated movie in history.

This is a movie featuring DC's very notorious villain, the antagonist of Batman, the Joker.

In fact, this story is not to promote evil, but to reflect on the story behind evil and why evil becomes evil.

Coupled with the director's sharp editing, the perfect performance of the filming actors, and the audience's boredom of ordinary heroes...etc, this is why this classic has been achieved.

Shen Huan himself liked this Joker very much, and was quite impressed.

According to the normal trajectory, Joker will be released in 2019, and the production should be completed in 2018, so the script must have appeared earlier, at least in 2017 or 2016.

Now is the right time.

In other words, the script written by Todd Phillips is likely to be the Joker that made a box office of 1 billion US dollars.

If this is the case, then this movie is definitely worth Shen Huan's investment.

Shen Huan is not a person who hates money, of course he likes to earn money openly.

Moreover, Chen Huan was even more proud of being able to make money without relying on a good man, earning a lot of money.

However, before talking about investment cooperation, it is still necessary to confirm whether the script is the one I saw.

So after inviting Todd Phillips to the house, Shen Huan was reading the script.

Todd Phillips' script is written in great detail, with dozens of pages of content introductions, and then there are a lot of storyboards, makeup shots, and characters that must be shown in various scenes.

But this script has nothing to do with the clown in DC comics.

To be precise, this should be called The Prequel of the Clown, which tells the story of how the clown became a mentally suppressed person and turned into a crazy lunatic villain.

Some of what it tells, there are no prototypes and story references in the comics.

This is a fictional story.

But Shen Huan was very satisfied after reading it.

Because the Joker he saw happened to be the same in terms of the storyline, but there were some differences in the content.

This is also natural, the content of the script can be fully presented in the movie,

It's almost impossible.

Some directors cut and added, some producers cut and added, and some film companies cut and added.

After such a series of continuous revisions, 80% of the original works can be regarded as highly restored, and many of them are even completely unrecognizable.

Joker is okay, there are not many changes, maybe this has something to do with its producer Martin Scorsese, the Oscar-winning director's style happens to be very suitable for the black humor and cruel style of Joker, so he didn't change it How many.

After putting down the script, before I knew it, half an hour had passed.

Todd Phillips had already finished his cup of black tea, but his expression became more and more relaxed.

Because the more carefully Shen Huan read it, the more he regarded the script as a serious matter in his heart.

If Chen Huan put down the script within three to five minutes, then basically the possibility of fooling Chen Huan into investing would be zero.

Mr. Phillips. Shen Huan asked him, I don't understand why you wrote such a script. The clown is a character in DC comics. You wrote the script yourself without their consent. If others dare to invest, if Warner Bros. If the company disagrees with the production, isn't the money wasted?

Todd Phillips nodded, You know a lot about the copyright issue of clowns, that's true. But you don't know, I have a good cooperation with Warner, the previous The Hangover series, We have had good cooperation. This year, my Army Dealer was also produced and distributed by Warner Bros.

So even if the story of Joker does not match theirs, they even have no plans to shoot it. As long as I can find the money, shoot it, get them to distribute it, and pay them enough royalties, then the film is perfectly fine.

Shen Huan smiled, It's not that simple, is it? How did you discuss it with Warner? What is difficult in the middle? You might as well tell me directly, or I can think about it seriously.

Todd Phillips was surprised and hesitated.

Shen Huan didn't urge him, and drank his own black tea slowly.

Wang Zhen and Zhang Yaya took the opportunity to sit over and asked in a low voice what was going on.

Although they can understand English, if they don't understand the ins and outs, they don't know what the two of them are talking about.

Shen Huan did not regard them as outsiders, so he told them the specific causal relationship.

Oh, this is unreliable! Wang Zhen is a media student, and knows a lot about the film and television industry, Yanhuang Films had a lot of investment in the United States before, but most of them were cheated by others! As a last resort , They just started the theater business in the United States, and the situation is slightly better now!

These people in Hollywood dare to do anything to cheat money! They were grandchildren when I begged you, and they are grandpas after you gave money!

Yeah, I read in the novel that people in Hollywood are very shameless. They dare to make false accounts. Even if they make money, they will make them not make money. Really! Zhang Yaya said confidently.

Shen Huan nodded straightly, the two women's suggestions really have something to offer.

In fact, people in Hollywood are even more exaggerated than what they say, they just have no bottom line.

The young man who was thinking about it assured them: Don't worry, if it's not reliable, I won't be stupid enough to invest in it. But this script is very good, you can give it a try if you have the chance.

You are not a professional, how do you know if the script will work? Wang Zhen persuaded again.

But I have the most powerful writer and script writer in the world as my staff. Shen Huan laughed.

Before Wang Zhen could react, Zhang Yaya suddenly realized: Teacher Chu Liuxiang!

Oh, it's Teacher Chu! Wang Zhen nodded repeatedly, so that she had nothing to say.

In the hearts of Chinese people, Teacher Chu Liuxiang is the greatest contemporary writer.

Although such a name is a bit too heavy, since The Gift of Room No. 7 came out, even the old men of orthodox literature have praised this mysterious writer one after another.

Even old men are like this, let alone ordinary people.

Especially young people who have literary dreams in their hearts, they regard Teacher Chu Liuxiang as a spiritual totem.

Whether it's A Bowl of Yangchun Noodles, Love Letter, Gift from Room No. 7, or Xiaoba's Story, which has been serialized, they are fascinated.

The incomparable popularity of these stories represents their admiration and respect for Teacher Chu Liuxiang.

Wang Zhen is naturally a young woman with literary dreams, and of course her admiration for Chu Liuxiang is sincere.

Thinking of Shen Huan and teacher Chu Liuxiang as staff, the popular host no longer worried that Shen Huan would miscalculate the story.
