Chapter 833 This time, Lin Gao will move to a higher mountain.
Wei Lianlian did not show surprise, obviously she had guessed Lin Gao's decision.
"Okay, boss, I will reply to those investors as soon as possible to ask them to calm down."
When she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped, turned around and asked: " By the way, boss, have you ever considered expanding the story of "Westward Journey" into a series? Nowadays, series movies are very popular in the film market."
Lin Gao was stunned, Wei Lianlian. The suggestion gave him some inspiration.
He once thought about building "Westward Journey" into a complete story universe, but this is not just a simple sequel, but how to extend the original story line into a larger world view.
“That’s a good idea.” Lin Gao nodded, a glint of thought flashing in his eyes.
“We can discuss it and expand the entire background world of Journey to the West.”
“But it will take time and energy to polish.”
Wei responded with a smile : "I know you will not make a decision easily, but this is a very potential direction and worthy of our in-depth study."
After saying that, Wei turned around and left, leaving Lin Gao to think alone.
He looked out the window at the bright lights of the city, and had some new ideas in his mind.
Early the next morning, Lin Gao decided to relax. He walked out of the hotel and strolled through this historic city in Europe.
The streets are lined with ancient buildings, and the air is filled with the aroma of coffee and bread.
Walking on the streets of these foreign countries, Lin Gao suddenly felt a new kind of inspiration emerging.
He has been looking for a story that can impress audiences around the world, and the history and culture of this city seem to have given him some answers invisibly.
"Perhaps, the next movie does not have to stick to a fixed theme." Lin Gao whispered to himself.
“I can tell a broader story that spans the boundaries of time, space and culture.”
Just then, his cell phone rang.
It’s Kevin, one of the top executives of Marvel Studios and a friend of Lin Gao’s in Hollywood.
"Lin, Gao, congratulations! I heard that you won an award at the European Film Festival." Kevin's voice was full of congratulations.
Lin Gao smiled and simply thanked him.
“Thank you, Kevin, I gained a lot from this film festival.”
“Listen, I’m calling this time because I want to talk to you about something important. "Kevin's tone suddenly became serious.
"Marvel has a new project here, and we hope to invite you to participate."
Lin Gao raised his eyebrows, becoming interested in the news.
"New project? Can you reveal some?"
Kevin smiled and then said: "Of course."
"We plan to launch a new "Superhero movie, this time we hope to add more Asian cultural elements."
"You know, the trend of globalization is becoming more and more obvious, and we need to find a way to make superhero stories." More diverse.”
"And you are the best candidate for director in our minds."
Lin Gao fell into a brief silence.
He did not expect that Marvel would take the initiative to ask him to cooperate, and it would be such a globally influential project.
"This is indeed a tempting proposal." Lin Gao said thoughtfully.
“However, I need to know more details.”
Kevin nodded in response: "Of course, we can discuss the details slowly."
"If you are interested, I can arrange a time to meet with you to discuss the concept of this project in detail."
>Lin Gao's thoughts gradually returned to reality. He knew what it meant to take on this project.
This is an opportunity to combine Chinese culture with the global film market, but it also means that he needs to face tremendous pressure. "I will consider it." Lin Gao finally said.
“Let’s find a time to meet and talk in detail.”
After hanging up the phone, Lin Gao continued to walk on the street with mixed emotions.
Kevin's proposal made him excited, but also full of challenges.
He knows that if he participates in this Marvel project, it will not only be for his personal career, but also to bring more attention and recognition to Chinese culture on the international stage.
As he walked, he was thinking about how to incorporate his own artistic pursuits within the framework of commercial films.
While he was immersed in thinking, a small bookstore on the corner attracted his attention.
The entrance of this store is filled with all kinds of books. It seems that it has not been affected by modern commerce and still retains that simple atmosphere.
Lin Gao walked in and flipped through the books on the bookshelf.
He accidentally turned over a few yellowed maps from an old book.
These maps outline ancient continents, oceans, mountains, and even some mysterious symbols.
Seeing this, Lin Gao suddenly had an idea.
Perhaps, he could set his next film in a similar fictional world.
This world can integrate Eastern and Western cultures to tell an epic story that spans time and space.
“This is a direction worth trying.” Lin Gao murmured.
After leaving the bookstore, Lin Gao had gradually formed a new idea in his mind.
He knew that the road ahead would not be easy.
Whether you're participating in Kevin's superhero project or creating your own epic movie, it takes a lot of courage and wisdom.
But he also understands that only by constantly challenging himself can he go further on the film road.
After returning to the hotel, Lin Gao quickly convened the team and began to discuss the next work plan.
Wei Lianlian saw his fighting spirit and said with a smile: "Boss, it seems you already have a new idea?"
Lin Gao nodded, with a firm light shining in his eyes.
"Yes, what we are going to do next is not just a movie."
"It is a brand new journey."
He stood in front of the team, confidently said.
Everyone can feel that Lin Gao is ready.
Whether he is taking on new international projects or moving on to more challenging projects, he will never back down.
Because he knows very well that the power of movies is not only to impress the audience, but also to lead the audience into a new world.
And he will continue to fight for this goal.
This time, Lin Gao will move towards a higher mountain.
After Lin Gao returned to China, he fell into a busy work.
Not only does he have to deal with the specific matters of the international distribution of "Westward Journey", he also has to discuss cooperation with Kevin on the Marvel superhero project.
These things keep his schedule packed, but he doesn't feel exhausted.
Every step of progress makes him feel that he is making more efforts to bring Chinese films to the world.
In the early morning, the sun shines in through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office. Lin Gao is sitting at his desk, carefully reviewing several important documents.
