Chapter 321. [Monster](1/2)
Not only did the fat man sneak out of the office, but Yi Feiyang was very excited at the moment, too excited to be alone.
Maybe, I should give that arrogant Cameron a slap in the face again? Yi Feiyang looked at the information with a smile, and "Robert Downey Jr." came into view. When he saw him, Yi Feiyang immediately thought of the future.
A certain Hollywood super-series blockbuster ---
"Victory must belong to me!" Yi Feiyang was inexplicably excited. He crumpled Downey's information into a ball with his hands and threw it into the trash can like a basketball shot.
"Hit! Hahaha! This time not only will Cameron be slapped hard in the face, but also everyone who wants to laugh at him will be slapped hard in the face! Isn't Columbia going to release Sam Raimi's "Spider-Man"? Then
Okay, man, I’m going to fight once and see who is the great director!”
After thinking for a day, Yi Feiyang already had a general idea. He stood up excitedly and walked around the office.
Unable to bear it, he rushed out of the room and wanted to find someone to chat with, and his first choice was naturally Dures.
Seeing Yi Feiyang rushing into the office excitedly, Dures looked up from the pile of documents and said in surprise: "Hey, BOSS, why are you so happy? Do you have a new movie shooting plan?"
"Oh, maybe there is, maybe not, I can't tell right now... What, are you looking forward to my new movie?" Yi Feiyang joked, threw a cigarette to Dures, and laughed on the sofa
Sit down.
"Looking forward to it? Haha, of course I am looking forward to it! In fact, this has made me develop a habit. Every time after your movie is finished, as long as I see your smiling face, I have a lot of work to do. How much is this?
Times? Four or five times?" Dures also joked and took the cigarette.
Yi Feiyang was about to speak, but he sat down on a stack of thick newspapers. He was very unhappy. He turned around and took out the stack of newspapers. He took a closer look and saw that the front page of the newspaper was a huge photo. But it turned out that
It was Columbia that released the news that filming of "Spider-Man" has begun. Director Sam Raimi stood in front of the Spider-Man background, giving a thumbs up and smiling proudly, as if he was looking down on the heroes.
"You're pretty quick!" Yi Feiyang casually threw the newspaper aside.
"You mean Colombia?" Dures glanced at the newspaper.
"That's right, it looks like they are going to completely regain their face this time!"
"What about you? Are you not ready to fight them?"
"Of course not! What I like most is a challenge, isn't it?"
"Haha, you said you have no ideas, tell me, what movie are you planning to make?"
"Ahem, I wonder if you like reading comics?"
"Comics? Of course I like it! Yes. I like it very much!"
"So what are your favorite comics?"
"This... there are "Superman", "The Flash", "Spider-Man", yes, and..."
"...Iron Man, right!"
"Hey, how do you know?!" Dures was surprised for a moment, but he understood immediately. "You don't want to..."
"Yes, I just want to film this drama!"
"'Iron Man' vs. 'Spider-Man'? God, Yi, you can't imagine it!" Dures exclaimed repeatedly.
Yi Feiyang shrugged, "But life or death is uncertain, right?"
"It's true that the fame of "Spider-Man" is no joke, not to mention that in my opinion, "Spider-Man" has advantages that "Iron Man" does not have..." Dures hesitated.
"If you have anything to say, just say it..."
"I'm afraid of dampening your enthusiasm."
"It doesn't matter, let's talk about it." Yi Feiyang encouraged.
"First of all, judging from the audience of comics, almost everyone who likes "Spider-Man" ranges from teenagers to men in their forties and fifties. It can be said that the positioning of Spider-Man is very accurate. From college students to society, life
The experience is very colorful; in contrast, the audience of "Iron Man" is mostly young people and adults. Because the protagonist is positioned as an industrial tycoon, he himself is a rich man."
"Secondly, "Spider-Man" has been filmed in a TV series and movie of the same name, which has a wider influence and higher recognition than "Iron Man"."
"In the end, the movie we make is meant to be open to the whole world, but for many people, the hero mode of "Spider-Man" is far more attractive than the hero mode of "Iron Man". Therefore, I think,
Even if we really start filming "Iron Man" and we have to compete with Columbia, we probably have a low chance of winning."
Dures has always been cautious and prudent, and he has always been very conceited in doing things. But for such a conceited person, this time he directly stated that he had no confidence in this drama. This made Yi Feiyang doubt whether his decision was right.
It's wrong.
In fact, in the previous life, the two movies "Spider-Man" and "Iron Man" were often compared by many movie fans, comparing their ratings, comparing their box office, and comparing their story content.
However, in terms of box office alone, "Spider-Man" still cannot compare with "Iron Man". The first "Spider-Man" global box office total was 421 million U.S. dollars, while "Iron Man" was 566 million U.S. dollars. Of course, there are
The following reasons:
First of all, the release years are different. "Spider-Man" was released in 2002, and "Iron Man" was released in 2008 - technology is developing very quickly, so I won't talk about the special effects. However, inflation must be considered here, after all, there is a difference of six years.
The prices and fares are absolutely different.
Secondly, celebrity effect. It is said that when "Spider-Man" was released, the male protagonist Toby was not a popular male star in Hollywood, but at that time, Downey Jr. had gone through his decline and became a popular superstar again. In terms of star effect,
More popular with American audiences.
Finally, there is the rise of the Chinese film market. Needless to say, many people know this. The total box office of Chinese films is making an increasingly important contribution to Hollywood. Many people who did not go to the theater to watch "Spider-Man" did so six years later.
"Iron Man", therefore the box office in China soared.
It can be seen from this that if "Spider-Man" and "Iron Man" were not produced six years apart, but were produced at the same time, then it remains to be seen who will be the box office champion.
What's more, in Yi Feiyang's view, the movie version of "Spider-Man" shows a "people-friendly" image. He is also worried about work, obsessed with love, and will be dazzled by hatred. Except for his super powers, he is just like the person next door.
Like a young man, ordinary audiences feel familiar with it. The movie version of "Iron Man" portrays the image of a wealthy and bohemian playboy. The entire film is supported by the performance of Robert Downey Jr., and many of his words have unique characteristics.
He has a strong American flavor, and Americans love to see him talk non-stop. However, due to cultural differences, many of the Chinese jokes are not funny to everyone.
After hearing Dures' very "frustrating" words, Yi Feiyang thought deeply and finally took a deep breath, his eyes burning with the light of battle again.
"It doesn't matter, I understand your worries. But no one can tell until the end. It's me, Sam Raimi, Fantasy Entertainment, or Columbia. Let the audience decide who is the big winner!"
With this sentence, Dures already knew that the boss had made up his mind and was determined to start filming this movie.
"Okay, boss, I support you as always. Yes, I will support you with all my strength. Let's see how "Iron Man" battles their "Spider-Man"!" Dures put his hand on Yi
The two held the flying hands tightly.
At that moment, the history of future Hollywood science fiction film wars began to be staged.
…
Yifeiyang's auction of dining rights is the same as Buffett's route. After selecting the final winner, the expensive dinner will be held in a very unique restaurant at the Kaifiya Hotel.
Of course, meals, wine, and service fees are all included in the bidding funds. In fact, even if they are not included, a dinner like this for two people will only cost a few thousand dollars at most... As for the last one
It is simply impossible to buy a bottle of red wine worth 300,000 US dollars. A bottle of red wine usually costs 150 US dollars. It is not expensive, but it is not cheap either.
But at this moment, neither Yi Feiyang nor Robert Downey Jr. was drinking, not because the wine was too cheap or because the atmosphere here was bad, but because they were both very interested in each other.
Yi Feiyang looked at Robert Downey Jr.
Robert Downey Jr. looked at Yi Feiyang.
The waiter standing not far away was secretly surprised, man, should we give this couple some violin accompaniment? What a spark! Look, both of them were staring at each other intently.
"You've been staring at me for a long time." Yi Feiyang said, picking up the wine glass.
"Same for you." Donnie also picked up the wine glass.
"You wouldn't spend 150,000 just to stare at me, would you?"
"No, to be precise, I'm buying an opportunity."
"A chance to have dinner with me?"
"An opportunity to get to know you."
"Hahaha!" Yi Feiyang laughed, "It's easy to get to know me, why spend so much money?"
"It's different. I hope to get to know you because... I want you to give me a chance to make a movie!"
"Filming?" Yi Feiyang looked at him with a smile.
"Yes, I am an actor. I was and am an actor."
"I know that, but you seem to be a troublesome person...alcoholic, drug addict, and hit-and-run..."
"I don't deny that all those bad things were my fault!" Downey rubbed his face with his hands, "But now, I regret it."
"These are the words you should say to the judge, don't they?"
"I have already said it to them... Of course, I also greeted their mother by the way, but that was not sincere, but now, it is sincere!"
"I don't understand this even more. Why would you tell me the truth that even the judge can't get?" Yi Feiyang looked at Downey with amusement.
Donnie shrugged, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "If I said that I did this to gain your trust, would you believe it?"
Yi Feiyang tapped the table with his fingers, looked at Downey, the sound paused for a moment, and he said: "I believe it!"
This time, Donnie was stunned, "Why?"
Yi Feiyang smiled, "Because of him!"
While talking, the fat man Gao Jiabao brought out little Yin Di'ao.
