Start with hooves

Just after saying hello to Jessica, I met Scarlett Johansson again in the club.

"Playboy" magazine voted her the "Sexiest Celebrity" in 2007. To be honest, Suri has never discovered the beauty of Scarlett Johansson, but this girl has a very good character.

During the haircut, she happened to be styling it nearby.

It seems that tonight I am going to attend a friend's premiere and chat with Suri about recent topics in the film industry.

As for Daju Film Company, the projects currently being filmed include "Inception", "Death Comes 2", and the comedy "A Little Wish".

There is also a "retro" tough guy blockbuster "The Expendables" that is being prepared. In order to achieve good results in the Asian market, Jack Cheng, a big-nosed actor who is very popular in Hollywood, will also join the cast.

Stallone, Jason Statham and Governor Schwarzenegger also offered to use part of their remuneration to invest in the film, and will each hold a certain share in the "Suicide Squad" project.

Suri readily agreed to the request of this group of veteran tough guys and expected to share about 30% of the box office profits. Otherwise, it would be difficult to gather these actors in the same crew.

But now that everyone is a "shareholder," coordination has become much easier. The preparations for "The Expendables" are progressing smoothly, and Stallone and others have spontaneously helped promote the show online.

At this moment.

Suri was chatting with Scarlett Johansson. After seeing this girl, what she thought of was not Marvel's "Black Widow", but the science fiction drama "Superbody", which has no peeing throughout the whole process and has a particularly natural and smooth plot.

After watching "Super Body" in her previous life, Suri also looked forward to filming the sequel "Super Body 2", but unfortunately she waited and waited and never got it.

Think about it.

In the first "Superbody", the protagonist played by Scarlett Johansson has almost become an omniscient and omnipotent god, unconstrained by time and space.

It’s not that easy to continue filming the second part. You may have to fight high-dimensional aliens to wrap up the story.

The specific details are a bit vague. Suri only remembers that "Superbody" is a story about developing the human brain and eventually evolving into a "god". The production cost does not seem to be too high.

then.

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, Suri raised her hand to signal the hairdresser to wait and asked Scarlett Johansson:

"Do you have any schedule next? I plan to prepare a science fiction movie, which I think is quite interesting."

Scarlett Johansson looked sideways at him and asked:

"When will the filming start? I may be a little busy next time. I have signed a few Marvel series. Although I am happy to cooperate with you, they will take up a lot of my time."

Nowadays, working with Suri is almost synonymous with "success", and Scarlett Johansson really wants to cooperate.

After listening.

Suri looked suddenly enlightened and asked, "Are you going to play the role of Black Widow?"

"???"

Scarlett Johansson looked confused and shook her head and said: "Why do you ask that? I will be an assistant to Iron Man. Due to the restrictions of the confidentiality agreement, I can only reveal so much for the time being. I'm sorry."

Suri, who was a little messy, smiled and said it didn't matter. He had changed a lot of things, and this news just made him feel a little surprised.

Continue to look straight ahead.Suri continued:

"The script has not been written yet. There will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. Let's discuss it then. No one wants to hit the Marvel superhero movie when it is released these days. I should have gritted my teeth and bought it at the end of last year, but I didn't. With so much money, it’s hard to compete with the Disney Group.”

Disney acquired Marvel in the first half of last year and made the listed company privatized and delisted, paying a huge sum of US$40 billion.

At that time, Netflix Entertainment had just begun to develop, and Suri really couldn't afford that much money.

Scarlett Johansson told:

"Young people love to watch superheroes. They are different from traditional commercial blockbusters. As far as I know, there will be several series of Marvel movies coming out in the future. It feels like "Star Wars" directed by George Lucas. Still, it has a chance to become a classic.”

Suri finished listening.

An idea suddenly came to his mind, and he felt that in order to facilitate the review on the other side, the fantasy tomb robbing drama that was going to be renamed "The Secret of the Dragon" should be made into a movie first, which would be more in line with his own interests.

Making some money by making a TV series is far less profitable than making a commercial blockbuster.

In addition, if the movie is successful, spin-offs can be produced in the future. In this way, both parties can make money, enough to make many series of movies.

Using the form of a Hollywood commercial blockbuster to create a tomb robbing drama full of Eastern elements, the successful experience of the "Tomb Raider" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series has proven that it has a good future.

And compared with Hollywood movies, shooting in the mainland is very cost-effective. It may become the next hit series similar to "Fast and Furious", "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Star Wars".

Thinking of this, Suri was a little excited, feeling that its importance suddenly increased, and the process of preparing them might be more interesting.

In addition, he also thought of popular themes such as "The Wandering Earth" and "The Three-Body Problem", and couldn't wait to search for relevant information on his mobile phone.

Scarlett Johansson thought that a rich man like him must be very busy, so she didn't bother him.

Probably due to the relatively early creation and conception time, Liu did not disappoint Su Rui. Both novels have already been published.

Suri was immediately very happy, feeling that the Daju Film Company under his own name could take another big step forward, and he would no longer have to worry about "what to film" for a long time to come.

After so many years of development in Hollywood, the homogeneity of commercial blockbusters has become so serious that you can often guess the ending just by looking at the beginning.

If some oriental cultural core is introduced, wonderful sparks may be created.

It is extremely difficult for mainland film companies to open up the international market, and it is impossible for Hollywood giants to give up market share.

With Suri's influence and financial resources, he has the opportunity to capture both markets at the same time, allowing Daju Film Company to add three film and television series and spin out some peripheral dramas.

If successful, this may bring "tens of billions of dollars" in revenue. Just looking at the growth in valuations of Netflix Entertainment and Penguin Video, the potential scale cannot be underestimated.

Hollywood’s super IP has always been valuable.

The reason why "Star Wars" director George Lucas became a super rich man and is now worth about US$36 billion is mainly because of the "Star Wars" series.

As such.

The importance of the "Search for the Dragon" series in Su Rui's heart has instantly increased a lot. Both the planning team and the starring actors must look for it carefully... (End of this chapter)
