Chapter 679 The days of gods
Of course, this does not mean that sequel movies and adapted movies are not good. In fact, many excellent works have emerged in this field, and the "Lord of the Rings" series is a model.
But the problem is that the development of a market should be multi-faceted. The current situation is that original films have almost been killed. Looking at it, it seems that there are not many filmmakers working on original works.
The last original film to achieve good results was Gilbert Jr.'s "The Last of Us."
Of course, little Gilbert himself is also the executioner of original movies, because he personally promoted the development of Marvel movies, which is the biggest killer.
Save original movies, that's one of the reasons.
Another reason is to increase market competitiveness. At the same time, another relatively unfamiliar culture in the West is used to defeat or seal the development of certain subcultures in advance.
In the past, Chinese people always said that the dross of feudal society should be spurned, but little Gilbert now feels that he needs this dross to hedge against future diversification.
If movies are the image card of a country, then science fiction movies are undoubtedly the most conspicuous ones on this card.
Therefore, supporting the development of Chinese-language films is actually helping Hollywood itself. Only when there is another competitor in the world will Hollywood get back on track and stop engaging in those unhealthy practices.
Of course, the ideal is very full, the reality is very skinny, there are many things that are easy to say, but more difficult to do.
After finishing a meal with Guo Fan, little Gilbert even sent him out personally.
After Guo Fan went back, he told Liu Ji about it. Liu Ji said with surprise: "Great, now it's justified. Let's see what else those people have to say."
Guo Fan said to Liu Ji: "Don't show off this matter everywhere. I'm going to Los Angeles in September. The stay may be longer. The company depends on you."
"Don't worry," Liu Ji patted his chest and said, "I'm not as good as you in making movies, but I'm still very good at running this kind of thing."
On the last day in Shanghai, little Gilbert and Ivanka went to see the construction of Disneyland, and the progress was quite good.
After Warner withdrew, Shanghai Disneyland became a Disney-owned project. Of course, the bank here has approved the loan, so the pressure is not very great.
According to the plan, Shanghai Disneyland is the largest park in the world. Disney headquarters believes that the park development project has good prospects. This analysis is based on China's economic development.
Analysts believe that in the next decade or so, the number of wealthy people in China will continue to increase. The rich here do not refer to the super rich like little Gilbert, but to families who have solved the problem of food and clothing and can afford a certain amount of entertainment expenses.
Based on this analysis, the Shanghai Disneyland project has become the most valued project within Disney. So as a shareholder of Disney, little Gilbert certainly has to care about some little love.
Afterwards, Gilbert Jr. and Ivanka went to South Korea and had some exchanges with people in the Korean film industry in Seoul.
In the evening, a powerful figure in Korea invited little Gilbert to have dinner, and also called several well-known actresses in the entertainment industry to accompany him.
Little Gilbert could take him away if he wanted to, but little Gilbert didn't recognize any of them.
After finishing the meal, little Gilbert went back and said to Ivanka: "It's really unprofessional. I don't know any of the actresses who came today."
"Then let them help you find someone you know?"
"Forget it, people are reluctant to look at them. I think the people here have some disease in their minds. I am a good person and I can't bear to see these poor guys."
Ivanka rolled her eyes at little Gilbert and said fatally: "If you were a good person, all the bad people on the earth would have disappeared long ago."
"Damn it, let's see if I don't take care of you." "Oh, I was wrong, bad guy, don't bite there..."
Ivanka is better, I can feel that she is a human being. If it were those Korean stars who had been tortured a long time ago, they would probably be no different from animals.
It is right to say that the entertainment industry is very dark, but little Gilbert thought that there is no place in the world that is darker than the entertainment industry in Japan and South Korea.
On the other side of the island country, Noriko Sakai, Shizuka Kudo, Norika Fujiwara, Kyoko Fukada, Satomi Ishihara and other women have been waiting for a long time.
They each set aside three to four months each year to live in the Melon Manor and take care of their children.
Although Ivanka was not very happy to see them, she was familiar with them after all. Seeing how respectful they were, I wasn't angry anymore.
Noriko Sakai happily hugged little Gilbert's arm. She was relatively short. Standing next to the bearded little Gilbert, it's like a little lolita and an uncle.
She happily showed off to little Gilbert: "Onii-chan, this is our company. I signed Shizuka Kyoko and Satomi, how about it?"
Little Gilbert looked at this sister's office and nodded with satisfaction: "It's very good. You didn't encounter any trouble, did you?"
"Of course not," said Shizuka Kudo on the side: "Everyone knows that we are your women and they all keep a distance."
"That's good, that's good." Little Gilbert was relieved. Safety was not a problem. The most important thing was that he didn't have a hat.
While eating Japanese food in the evening, Noriko Sakai also invited a group of female artists she had recently signed to come over to keep her company. From the looks of it, if little Gilbert likes anyone, he can take it to bed.
Noriko Sakai also showed off: "I plan to sign all female artists. How about calling the company Landrini's Harem Agency?"
"What the hell," little Gilbert patted Sakai Noriko's little head, motioned her to eat ice cream, and complained: "Don't you think it's messy enough?"
"*%￥@!%" Noriko Sakai ate some ice cream, then raised her head and said, "I just want to please you. After all, some people will grow old."
"Okay," Little Gilbert motioned for Fukada Kyoko to sit next to him, put his left hand around Fukada Kyoko's waist, and motioned for Sakai Noriko to continue eating ice cream.
He said: "Women are not my only need, what is more important is to look after my heart. If you see a beautiful girl and want to introduce it to me, don't you think about yourselves?"
For these women who depend on little Gilbert for survival, doing everything possible to please little Gilbert is their means of survival.
Since little Gilbert said it was not necessary, several women, under the leadership of Noriko Sakai, showed their best abilities. Not to mention little Gilbert, even Ivanka was served comfortably.
While Ivanka was disgusted, she joined in and was very happy.
Happy times are always short-lived. Little Gilbert stayed in the island country for a week, which was equivalent to a vacation. Several women also changed their tricks to please him, and they were quite happy.
But at the end of July, Gilbert Jr. returned to Los Angeles.
At this time, the North American summer season has entered the second half, and the situation is changing.
