Chapter 712: Start some new projects


Regarding the BJ eight minutes at the closing ceremony of the Atlanta Olympic Games, the BJ Olympic Committee invited some well-known domestic directors to give plans.

Yang Ye was naturally among the invitees, as was Brother Kaizi, who swept the world with "Farewell My Concubine".

The only one missing was Zhang Yimou, who was treated coldly because he filmed "Alive" in violation of regulations and even submitted it to Cannes.

When the novel "Alive" was first written, no magazine dared to publish it. It was Ba Jin who defied all odds and published the full text in "Harvest".

Later, Changjiang Literature and Art Publishing House published this novel. The first printing was 20,000 copies, half of which were sold and then sealed.

The remaining books were asked to be destroyed, but the publisher was unwilling to destroy them, so they sent them all to Yu Hua.

Yu Hua was stunned for a long time when he received several sacks of books sent to him by the publishing house.

The next day, he started riding a tricycle, carrying these sacks of books, and delivering books to friends everywhere.

That's the end of the matter, and no one was punished for it.

Speaking of which, Yang Ye was also involved in the filming of "Alive".

Because Zhang Yimou has been hanging out with Yang Ye, his movies were all funded by Yang Ji.

But Yang Ye was treated differently and received the invitation anyway. After all, his united front value was not comparable to that of Zhang Yimou.

However, even though he received the invitation, Yang Ye just fooled him casually.

Firstly, there is no ready-made solution, and secondly, it is too troublesome.

Because it is an away game, we must communicate with Cortland about various factors such as the venue. You can't just do whatever you want.

Later, when Zhang Yimou worked on eight minutes, he worked on it for half a year, and several plans were rejected because others did not cooperate.

The last one that came out actually had a pretty good live effect. Many gringos said they wanted to go to China after watching it.

But he was scolded in China, saying that he sent a bunch of girls wearing cheongsams and showing their thighs to sell meat at the Olympics. It was so fucking embarrassing.

Zhang Yimou was so criticized that he shut himself up and didn't even bid for the Olympic opening ceremony. Later, he was persuaded to go. Fortunately, he finally avenged his shame.

The current situation is that Zhang Yimou continued to work on his "Nu Qing Xiangxi" without being invited.

The heroine of this movie, Red Girl, stars Gong Li.

And the two people's original time and space breakup work, "Shake, Shake, Shake to Grandma Bridge!" 》 did not appear.

Gong Li has been cut off by Yang Ye, and there is no such thing as a breakup between them.

In fact, although Gong Li broke up with Zhang Yimou in the original time and space, she was still reluctant to part with Zhang Yimou's resources.

She said that although they are no longer together, they can still cooperate in the future.

But Zhang Yimou found a new girl as soon as he turned around. Ten years later, the two worked together again.

……

The plan that Yang Ye came up with had no bright spots, so it was naturally rejected.

But the matter of "Alive" has become Yang Ye's protective color.

The Olympic Committee thought he was dissatisfied with the ban on "Alive", so they fooled him casually.

Who knew that Yang Ye was just a plagiarism dog? If he didn't have to copy, he would be useless.

Yang Ye went to Beijing and attended the second Shanghai International Film Festival.

The Shanghai International Film Festival was changed to a biennial event after the millennium, so two years have passed and this is the second edition.

This year's jury chairman is Taiwanese director Li Xing, an old acquaintance of Yang Ye.

Yang Ye only stayed for one day before returning to Shenzhen to continue filming his "Men in Black".

The film doesn't have many special effects, nor is it very complicated, and it was shot very smoothly.

Having experienced the production of a series of special effects blockbusters such as "Kung Fu", "Terminator 2", "Jurassic Park", and "The Matrix", Ziqi Company's technology has become very mature.

Yang Ye thought that with such good technology, it was time to develop a new series.

After Xu Ke finished "Wind and Cloud", he was asked to work on "The Legend of Shushan" that he had been thinking about for a long time.

Over in Hollywood, Yang Ye is wondering whether to create the Marvel Universe.

The reason why he didn't buy Marvel in a package package and only bought a little spider was because Yang Ye didn't want to make United Artists Pictures too big to avoid attracting trouble.

When the Japanese made crazy acquisitions in the United States, Panasonic and Sony entered Hollywood, and Columbia and Universal changed hands, Yang Ye was no longer so conspicuous.

The Yang Fund controlled by Yang Ye even invested in several movies of Universal, just to strengthen Universal and prevent Panasonic from selling Universal to a Jew due to poor management. Among the current eight major Hollywood companies, three are backed by Asian capital, collectively known as the "Asian Three."

After "Jurassic Park", United Artists has stood at the forefront, and there is no need to pretend to be low-key.

It's just that if you want to develop the Marvel Universe, you must first make Iron Man.

Robert Downey Jr. is 30 years old this year. Because of his superb acting skills, he is known as one of the most promising male stars in Hollywood today. He is also in his prime.

However, this guy will die next year due to drug abuse and become a famous bad boy in Hollywood.

Yang Ye thought about it for a while and decided to forget it and let this guy go to jail.

It's too risky to use him now.

Think about it, the movie is being filmed and this guy is addicted to drugs, what can he do?

At that time, a lot of negative news will also affect the box office of the movie.

And without Iron Man, the Marvel Universe wouldn't be possible.

Yang Ye thought about it a lot and decided that working on "X-Men" would be a good idea.

So, Yang Ye simply wrote a plan and sent it to Shay, asking him to take the lead in producing "X-Men".

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

The director is also designated as Bryan Singer, the leading actor Hugh Jackman, and Halle Berry as "Storm"...

Shay always believed in Yang Ye's vision and readily agreed, but he told Yang Ye that he wanted to produce the British writer J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece "The Hobbit".

"The Hobbit" is the originator of modern Western fantasy literature, and its filmmaking is beyond imagination.

Although this IP is super famous, in Hollywood, it has been kicked around like a ball.

Industry giants like Disney have all rejected "Lord of the Rings."

Harvey Weinstein, who held the copyright, couldn't get money from anywhere. In the end, he had no choice but to let Peter Jackson take the project to find investment.

After New Line's Shay heard about it, he thought it was an opportunity, took a gamble, and made the "Lord of the Rings Trilogy" out of nothing.

Speaking of the history of New Line's fortune, it all depends on gambling.

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" took a gamble and took off.

"Lord of the Rings" took a gamble and made a wave of gods.

"The Golden Compass" took a gamble and went bankrupt.

Of course, in this time and space, after Xie Yi gambled on Yang Ye's "Shaolin Temple", his life was smooth and prosperous,

Under the control of Yang Ye, Shea and others, United Artists Pictures does not have many works, but specializes in blockbusters.

It owns many blockbuster movie series such as "007", "First Blood", "Rocky", "Jurassic Park", and "Spider-Man".

New Line Cinema, a subsidiary of United Artists, produces more films, but specializes in B-level films.

It has produced blockbuster horror and action movie series such as "Alien", "Death Comes to Me" and "Shanghai Noon".

It also owns the copyright of all novels by Stephen King, the king of horror novels, and has produced famous movies such as "The Shining" and "The Shawshank Redemption".

Since Shay is rich now, he will not wait for a bargain like he did in the original time and space, but chose to take action.

Seeing the success of special effects in movies such as "Jurassic Park", he was ready to take action and set his sights on "The Hobbit".

Xie Yi said to Yang Ye in the email: "Brother, don't you think that filming Middle-earth is a very fulfilling thing?"

Yang Ye certainly has no problem with this. This is one of the most successful movie series in history.

Yang Ye said: "As long as you can get the copyright, I will definitely support it!"

……

PS: After Fei Li died, the protagonist no longer had anyone to deal with.

Without enemies, there is no conflict.

Yang Ye is also older, and it is not appropriate to mess around with little girls.

I have been having a hard time writing recently, and you may think I am struggling.

But Yang Ye's story cannot end so hastily.

Yang Ye's career still lacks the last peak.

Thanks to the readers who have accompanied me all the way. There are still hundreds of thousands of words left, so please read on patiently. (End of chapter)
