With such a large domestic market, as long as the cost is recouped, it is actually enough. The key is overseas, and the main focus of the movie Interstellar is overseas!
And this moment.
In a holiday villa in New Orleans, USA, Nolan, an internationally renowned director, was wearing a pair of shorts and leaning on a deck chair by the swimming pool.
He held a script in his hand.
The main structure of this script is the first draft of the script that Interstellar has roughly completed in 08.
Nolan's expression was serious at the moment.
He is not very satisfied with this notebook, but he is not sure how to change it.
That's why I came to the holiday villa here, wanting to calm down and think about it.
At the same time, an email popped up on his laptop in the living room.
It read: "Dear Director Nolan, we have received your funding application form, but if you want to remake a sci-fi movie, we consider that it may not be worth such a huge expense, and you may need to submit an application form in advance. Su Chen from China and his company called and bought the copyright of the movie in advance."
Chapter 216. Nolan: I always feel like I'm living in Su Chen's shadow!
When Nolan basked in the sun all afternoon, his body smelled of burnt skin after being burned by the sun.
When he leisurely held his wine glass, stood up from the front of the swimming pool, and walked back to the living room, his eyes stayed on the pop-up window of the computer.
Then he frowned.
The movie "Interstellar" had this idea as early as 08.
Originally, he wanted to find director Spielberg to produce it, but because other films were in preparation, time passed, and Nolan temporarily put down the script.
During this time, he wanted to reopen the project.
But it takes time to perfect the script and fill in the details.
The current so-called "Interstellar" script and the final script shot by Su Chen are completely different.
It can be said that apart from the similarity of the overall background, there is no similarity.
Moreover, the script in Nolan's hand is not called "Interstellar", but "Planet Registrant".
When Nolan saw the email, he was shocked.
After that, I immediately searched for the source of the movie Interstellar on the Internet, but finally found that I couldn't find it.
It turned out to be showing in the far east.
Moreover, it is said that in half a month, it will be shown in theaters all over the world.
This shocked Nolan very much!
Because as far as he knows, isn't Dongfang very good at making martial arts movies?No, all their energies seem to be on court dramas, as well as various movies and TV dramas about World War II against Japan.
There is no sci-fi soil in the East at all.
Moreover, the more information he learned, the stronger Nolan's surprise became.
It seems that after the movie was released in the East, it broke the single-day box office record one after another? ?
That means, this movie is not a gimmick, it is not a bad movie, it is a good movie with eyes closed!
"Director Su Chen."
As soon as Nolan searched for the name, he saw Su Chen's scarf.
There are walls in China, but not in foreign countries. When the browser translates it, Nolan's finger drags the mouse to move to the "Interstellar" shooting highlights and documentaries.
Time passed by minute by minute.
The expression on Nolan's face changed from curiosity at the beginning to shock.
Then to admire.
He could hardly describe the excitement in his heart in words.
At the same time, a strong sense of crisis subconsciously surged deep in my heart.
Oriental sci-fi movies have actually developed to this extent!
He immediately called his brother.
Jonathan Nolan is a well-known screenwriter, novelist, and later the core of the creative team of Westworld.
"Jonathan, did you see that? It's so shocking!"
Nolan's first sentence was extremely emotional: "We have wanted to make a film for nearly three years, but it was actually done by a young and talented director from the East!"
"I saw a behind-the-scenes look at them and it was just breathtaking."
"Stronger than our imaginations!"
Immediately afterwards, Jonathan quickly went online and turned on the phone, and after seeing everything Nolan sent him.
Jonathan was also shocked.
"God, they actually thought of such an advanced shooting method two years ago. The film industry in the East seems to be on the rise!"
"And, this movie..."
Jonathan roughly glanced at the trailer.
"It seems to be a bit similar to our ideas, but their content is more detailed and shocking! There are many things that we can't imagine."
Nolan couldn't describe his excitement at the moment. He even wanted to fly to meet this young director in the east immediately.
In fact, it is about the gradual end of the earth, and the type of script that human beings begin to search for their next home in space.
Almost everyone in Hollywood, every mailbox can receive five or six similar scripts a year.
This first draft of the script doesn't make much sense.
The main thing is how to tell this story, how to make this story tell everyone to believe.
The reason why Nolan spared time was to perfect this idea, but when he saw that Dongfang had already started filming two years ago, and it even broke the box office record after it was released.
He now feels that he is far inferior to this young oriental director.
To be reasonable, the script in his hand is now an outline and a prototype of ideas, so when he saw "Interstellar", Nolan was shocked and envious, feeling everything.
But even if he was killed, he couldn't think of "I became a substitute".
On the contrary, Nolan felt a little apologetic in his heart.
The other party has taken pictures, but you still want to take pictures?How did you manage to take pictures of others?
Fortunately, the filming did not start ahead of time, otherwise, I am afraid that I would really have to call the oriental director to apologize.
Although he wanted to see how amazing the movie was right away, he only suppressed his desire to get acquainted with Su Chen when he realized that he would be able to watch the movie overseas in [-] days.
I'm going to wait until the movie is over.
……
And in Shanghai.
Su Chen is in Zhao Qingren's company to communicate with the representatives of Japanese and Korean theaters about the arrangement of the films.
Because for the Japanese, Korean, and Southeast Asian markets, "Interstellar" is an imported film, and logically speaking, the number of films scheduled will not be too many.
However, because the domestic box office situation was better than expected.
Therefore, Su Chen has a strong waist and has an absolute advantage in negotiating.
Whether imported films or not, as long as it is a profitable film, if there are not many films in theaters, it will be a loss for theaters.
The interests of the country are not stable at all in front of the capitalists.
So after the negotiation was over, Su Chen only showed the record-breaking box office backstage real data, and these overseas theaters went back to line up the films.
Because they have faith.
More rows and more earning, who would have trouble with money.
……
All theaters in Japan, South Korea, Europe, and North America have confirmed that they will be screened at the same time.
If the box office results are good, the screening rate of theaters may be temporarily increased.
It was nine o'clock in the evening.
Su Chen was studying carefully how to raise children, but Li Duoyu walked up to him with an excited face.
"What's wrong?"
"Brother Chen, how is your English?"
"It's not good, what's the matter? Do you want to give English prenatal education to my future daughter?"
Su Chen raised her head with a smile.
Li Duoyu shook his head: "No, no, overseas long-distance calls, there is an interpreter over there, and the director Nolan called."
Li Duoyu admires Nolan very much, but that is "Inception", the international director of the Batman series!
Su Chen heard the words, and after thinking about it, she understood.
With Nolan's resources in the overseas film industry, finding the distribution company of "Interstellar" is not an easy task.
"Director Nolan said that he admired you because you did what he wanted to do but didn't have the confidence to do it."
Li Duoyu couldn't understand what he said excitedly.
Su Chen frowned.
"Ah this..."
Li Duoyu's eyes on Su Chen raised another level.
"Brother Su Chen, you've already hooked up with a top director."
Before Su Chen could speak, Li Duoyu continued, "They'll call back in 5 minutes. What should I say? Just say you'll call them back when you're free?"
Su Chen said with a smile: "That's no need, I'll just pick it up. It doesn't matter if they don't have an interpreter, your sister is an English thief 6."
to be frank.
It's a bit rushed for Su Chen to take the first step.
But he can't rush.
At first, many people around her thought it was too risky, but Su Chen knew that she couldn't wait.
This movie, just wait until it's gone.
It was filmed two years ago, so now I am the master. If it is half a year later, I will probably go to court.
The reason why Nolan wants to call himself is probably because he thinks that he has finally found someone who thinks like him in the whole world.
That's why I'm so excited.
really.
After a while, Li Duoyu's cell phone rang again.
Su Chen answered the phone.
Nolan Barabara said a lot in it, and finally the translator said over there: "Hi Director Su Chen, I'm really excited, because I learned the story of your making the movie Interstellar, and, I know the difficulties you've been through."
"This is an amazing achievement. I really want to meet you. I heard that the movie broke the box office record. I sincerely congratulate you. If there is a chance, we can try to cooperate together."
Su Chen coughed.
After he was reborn, he had played countless dicks, but none of them had ever been so weird.
"Hello Director Nolan, thank you for your appreciation, I also like your movie very much, and, I think, if you make the movie Interstellar, it might be better!"
Nolan shook his head immediately after listening to the translation.
"No, no, director Su Chen, I was shocked when I saw the footage of your filming. I can't wait to watch this movie."
"To be honest, I also have a similar movie I want to shoot, but more than half a month has passed, and I don't have a good idea."
"In your movie, the phrase "love can pass through everything" made me very excited. What kind of genius is it that can think that love is the power that can pass through everything in the universe? My God, I admire you so much. "
Su Chen: "..."
