Hollywood legendary director - 496 Chapter 491 The Three Heroes of Mexico (seeking subscription, tickets)

The entrustment of Scott Rose to coordinate shares in the digital domain will not be effective soon.

The shortage of funds in the digital field is a shortage, but the introduction of too many large and small shareholders is also a trouble, which can only be solved internally.

Perhaps the only good news is that the board of directors welcomes Lehman very much. After all, these people want to reap the rewards in the digital field. Now the environment is not good and the competition in the field of visual effects is fierce. There is a studio behind it. In any case, they can protect their asset investment to increase in value.

Therefore, in addition to being responsible for the post-production of “The Mist” during this period, Lehmann also ignored Cameron.He believes that his offer is the most favorable one, and it is difficult for the other party not to agree.

Moreover, what he wants is absolute controlling rights in the digital field, and must occupy the dominant position of the company. Then, if Scott does not cooperate, Cameron will buy the shares first, and it will not benefit much.

In other words, the digital field is not the focus. The focus is on a special effects studio that can be controlled. Even if something goes wrong with it, can he not hire other special effects technicians if he has money?

It’s nothing more than the digital field is the most preferred, but it is not an inevitable choice.

On January 20th, the final edited version of “The Mist” was confirmed. It was 115 minutes in length and more detailed than the original version.

The most important thing is that the ending of his movie version is based on the original version of the novel, a blank ending, not the anti-heroist ending of the original version.

If you follow the original version, the controversy is too great. Although it sublimates the theme, it is very annoying.

Some audiences were so angry that they burned the theaters–the truth is, two theater screens were burned in Ohio.

After all, when anyone sees the climax, the protagonist in despair kills several survivors who rushed into the dense fog with a pistol, including his own son, who is about to commit suicide, not falling into the mouth of the monster, or being spidered As a human nest, he was suffering, but found that the fog had cleared. The army rescued along the way. None of the demons in the supermarket died, but stared at him with pity…

This ending is a bit angry and can’t accept it, and it’s normal.

For example, in “The Shawshank’s Redemption,” Andy spent twenty years digging to escape from prison. As a result, as soon as he left, the warden stood by and said, “surprise, Andy.”

Taste it carefully, you taste it, who can bear it.

Of course, director Frank has always liked to play shock, which is why his director’s work, even if it is well received, the box office is still not high.

I can’t be greedy, and the characters are so aggrieved. Passersby and audiences can’t bear this anger, and they won’t watch it again after watching it.

Even if it’s “Mist”, if there is no big reversal at the end, depending on the quality, the score may be lower, but the box office will definitely be much higher.

After all, many viewers just heard that watching this movie was annoying, and then they didn’t even watch it.

Subsequently, Lehman spent two more days staying up all night editing a 50-second Super Bowl preview, which Blake took to negotiate with the TV station.

After this period of work, even if Lehman’s energy is still vigorous, he can still relax and take a leisurely rest.

…

…

After finishing filming the first four episodes of “The Walking Dead”, Gyro left the crew.

After all, he likes making movies more than TV shows, but he doesn’t have much inspiration for new works recently.

Therefore, he still looks for all kinds of scripts every day, or reads some novels, comics and the like.

One day, he was working in the studio, and the front desk led a person up.

It was Mexican director Alessandro Gonzalez Inarito.

…

The top was dressed in casual clothes and poured coffee enthusiastically.

Alessandro sat on the sofa, feeling quite at a loss, occasionally looking at the surrounding layout, a little envy in his eyes.

He knows tops, but he is not very familiar with them.

But the Mexican director circle is so big, there are even fewer people who can mix in Hollywood, almost all of them can make friends.

Not long after, watching the spinning top come over to serve coffee, Alessandro hurriedly said: “This time I took the liberty to come over and delay your work. I’m really sorry.”

The top smiled indifferently, “No need to.” This sentence was spoken in Spanish.

The two were originally from the same place, and they gradually became acquainted with each other when they talked and talked about hometown topics.

Alessandro took advantage of the right atmosphere and asked, “Gyro, are you very familiar with Director Lehmann?”

Gyro has cooperated with Firefly Pictures several times. Needless to say, this is not a secret in the circle.

Speaking of him, Gyro nodded, “My current works are all Firefly Pictures helping to prepare and release the business, and get along very well.”

Alessandro was waiting for these words. He immediately said: “I have a script in my hand and I want Firefly Pictures to help, but I don’t have a chance to meet him. So, could you please make an appointment? ”

Firefly Pictures has a good performance. I don’t know how many filmmakers want to make appointments for cooperation, but there is a mixture of dragons and snakes, and it is difficult to distinguish between young and old who want to defraud the project. Lehman basically only asks to vote for the script. Unless the script is selected.

But too many scripts have been voted. Everyone has the dream of becoming famous, and Firefly Pictures has almost no time to review them one by one.

This is a very common thing in the industry.The top also immediately understood what Alessandro meant, nothing more than pulling investment.

For this hometown director, Gyro recognized from the bottom of his heart, but did not directly agree, “I can invite, but I can’t guarantee if I can agree.”

“Thank you, thank you, as long as I can meet Director Lyman, I will speak about these things.” Alessandro let out a sigh of relief.

He shot “21 Grams” the year before last, and he was internationally famous. He was also shortlisted for the official competition in Venice, and the two leading male and female actors won the Venice Actor Award.

But even so, the box office of his independent filmmaker is really limited, and he can barely operate to make some money, relying on channel distribution ability.

So when he took the new script to invest in investment is still a bit difficult, he still finds his old friend Alfonso Cuarón first.

Alfonso was the first Mexican director to become famous in Hollywood. He liked the script and introduced it to the production departments of Warner and Universal. However, these companies were not interested in non-English works or were literary and artistic, so he refused. In the end, Alfonso proposed to find the top to find a way.

Of course, the more important point is that although he lacks investment, he can also get it together. What is more important is the distribution channel.

Alessandro is accustomed to the loss of distribution channels, and he also thinks of Hollywood to seek development. For him, Mexico has fewer plates, which requires a strong film company to accept it.

For several months, the attitude of the Sixth Party Congress was very uncertain, so I had to find Firefly Pictures to try…
