Chapter 234: "The Butterfly Effect"
, The fastest update to Hollywood’s latest chapters starting from animation!
The next day.
Golden Shuguang Entertainment Group.
"Alexander, this is the script I wrote recently. You can get it from the screenwriters union and the copyright application department and register it."
Soon after Zhuke entered the company, he threw three screenplays to Alexander.
"Shark Beach";
"The Great Napoleon";
"The Butterfly Effect";
"Boss, are there three screenplays in total?" Alexander asked.
"Yes. How soon can you get it done?" Zhu Ke said.
Upon hearing this, Alexander immediately said: "Boss, our Golden Dawn Entertainment Group is not small now, and Wald Pictures is also a leader in Hollywood's second-tier companies. The copyright can be registered in three days, up to seven days."
Zhu Ke nodded in relief.
This is the benefit of big companies!
Generally speaking, it takes a long time for ordinary screenwriters to submit their scripts and register with the screenwriters union and copyright application department. It usually takes 15 to 45 days; however, it is different for large film companies. These departments will give priority to review, 3 to 7 days. Time can be done.
"These guys in charge of copyright registration are all inferior to others."
Zhu Ke sighed: "I will always remember the beginning of 1996. When I started shooting the first movie "Lola Run", those people dragged me off for 42 days to get the copyright registration."
Alexander smiled, and did not speak.
Looking around the world, priority and queue-jumping tools exist, provided that you have the strength!
There is no doubt that Zhu Ke is now the group with strength.
After Alexander left, Zhuke took out three manuscripts of the movie script and took a look.
Wald Pictures is developing well at present. However, compared with large companies, the ability to write scripts and accept external scripts is indeed much worse than that of large companies. Gold medal screenwriters in Hollywood, the works they write are basically The six private spaces in Hollywood do not allow other small and medium-sized film companies to step in.
What can Zhuke do?
Naturally, I worked hard to plagiarize it!
"Fortunately, I have seen a lot of Hollywood movies in my last life, otherwise it would be difficult to plagiarize."
Of course, if Zhu Ke plagiarized the script, it is impossible to completely restore the original script.
Zhuke is a man, not a god!
It can only be written as much as possible, but it is left to the company's screenwriters to supplement it.
Three easy drafts.
Strive to be the best!
咚咚咚~~~!
At this moment, the door of Zhuke's office was knocked.
"Come in!"
The person who walked in was Christopher Nolan.
"Hi, Nolan, you're here, come in and sit down."
Zhu Ke saw that it was Nolan, and he was naturally very pleased. This was his beloved general. Moreover, Zhuke also pointed out that he would make more money for himself in the future.
"Mr. Wald, are you looking for me for a new movie to shoot?" Nolan said straight to the point.
Zhu Ke nodded immediately!
"The Butterfly Effect"
Shortly after Zhuke finished writing this script, he first thought of Christopher Nolan when he was looking for director candidates.
"Butterfly Effect" tells a story of time travel.
"A butterfly in the tropical rainforest of the Amazon River Basin in South America, occasionally flapping its wings, can cause a tornado in Texas in the United States two weeks later."
The protagonist is unwilling to fate and is angry at the bad state again and again, which has damaged his supposedly perfect life.
An accidental discovery, he traveled through time and space! ! !
Everything he changed in the past, when he returned to the present time and space, he found that they brought unexpected results, and the damage was more serious, and things got worse and worse. In order to make up for the mistake, the actor returned to the past again to try to eliminate the traces, but it was counterproductive, and his actions could only lead to the gradual collapse of the real world.
So over and over again!
He ran between the increasingly chaotic past and reality until the irreversible ending.
Unfortunately again and again, the actor almost collapsed!
The movie "Butterfly Effect" also has three endings.
One of the endings can be called a tragedy. In order to restore the worsening situation, the actor actually traveled back to the mother body and strangled himself with an umbilical cord.
Overall, this film is a tragic story!
"Nolan, how do you feel after reading it?" Zhuke took a sip of coffee.
"The overall settings are very good."
Nolan put down the script and said: "The Butterfly Effect involves knowledge of psychology, psychiatry and chaos theory, and I have been exposed to this part a lot. Mr. Wald, you now let me be the director. I am absolutely very OK."
"Hahaha, what you want is your confidence!" Zhu Ke immediately clapped his hands and applauded.
"Okay."
Nolan is extremely confident.
As long as you have watched "Inception" filmed by Nolan, you will find that he is very good at the settings of these gods!
He can handle such fragmentary details and fragments of "Memory Fragment", let alone "Butterfly Effect"?
I have to say that Nolan is very suitable to be the director of "Butterfly Effect".
"Butterfly Effect" was released in 2004 in the original time and space. It was produced and produced by Xinxian Films. The production cost was 12 million US dollars and the North American box office was more than 57 million US dollars;
It has also been shown in overseas countries and regions, and it has also achieved relatively good box office results.
The reputation and evaluation of the film is also very good.
With a score of 8.7 points on IMB, it is a very good low-cost soft science fiction feature film.
In the original time and space, New Line Pictures produced three films in the series in one go, each of which made a fortune.
"The production cost of $12 million?"
"Ha ha!"
"This publicized data report was given by Xinxian Pictures."
"In Hollywood, who doesn't know the notoriety of New Line Pictures? The production cost of 12 million US dollars is actually estimated to be less than 8 million US dollars, or even lower."
In this way, the film "Butterfly Effect" was formally approved.
Of course, the screenplay needs the screenwriters of Nolan and Wald Pictures to polish it a bit. After all, Zhuke is not a professional screenwriter.
"Shark Beach", "Napoleon the Great"...
The above two scripts are also small-cost movies carefully prepared by Zhu Ke.
When a film company produces a film project, it cannot blindly pursue high-cost blockbusters. It must produce a sufficient number of low-cost films to maintain the company's profitability and basic vitality.
The two low-cost movies "Shark Beach" and "Napoleon" are very good.
The 234th chapter of "Shark Beach" "Butterfly Effect" is a story of only one heroine and a person fighting a shark on the beach. The production cost is only 300,000 US dollars.
However, such a US$300,000 film produced a North American box office of more than US$21 million when it was released in 2016; and the offline DVD market also made good profits.
Even in the Great Tian Dynasty market, the film also achieved a box office of over 50 million yuan in the first week.
You know ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ it is not a high-cost blockbuster!
"Big Man Napoleon" is also a small-cost movie, with a production cost of only US$5 million, but it has achieved a North American box office record of more than US$50 million.
In overseas markets, it is even more than 100 million US dollars at the box office in one fell swoop.
"High-quality and low-cost movies are my favorite." Zhu Kuku went online again.
That night.
Zhu Ke did not go home, but went to the Golden Shuguang TV Group to watch TV with group executives such as Ms. Tang Na, the group president!
That's right, just watching TV!
The first TV series "Prison Break" independently produced by the group will be officially launched on the group's WB TV station at 8 o'clock tonight!
The TV series "Prison Break" is a key project operated by the entire group this year and the beginning of a series of follow-up plans!
Zhu Ke attaches great importance to it!
