Chapter 198 Pirates of the Caribbean 2
After the preview meeting, China and Taiwan gathered their opinions. Just as Liu Hongmin thought, "Journey to the West" has been produced, and there are not many places that can be modified.
After replacing some shots, "Journey to the West" started broadcasting in China.
As soon as it was broadcast, it immediately received a warm welcome from the audience.
Since the broadcast of "Journey to the West" filmed by Little Devil, people all over the country have been looking forward to "Journey to the West" filmed by ourselves. Therefore, when it is broadcast, as long as you can watch the Chinese TV, there are almost no other channels.
With the popularity of "Journey to the West", China and Taiwan's advertising expenses have increased several times.
Director Wang smiled from ear to ear. "Journey to the West" was promoted by him when he first took office. Now it is bearing fruit, with both ratings and money being made. It is simply a remarkable achievement. When the job is transferred, he will definitely have a good place to go.
The popularity of "Journey to the West" also attracted the attention of Xiangjiang. After Huang Qiang learned the news, he immediately called Liu Hongmin.
"Brother Liu, I heard that "Journey to the West" is being broadcast, but I don't know the quality."
Liu Hongmin said with a smile: "Brother Qiang, the quality of "Journey to the West" is not good. He said, if you want to introduce it, you’d better come to the capital immediately.”
Huang Qiang readily agreed, "I feel relieved with Brother Liu's words. I will fly to the capital tomorrow. At that time, please ask Brother Liu to help me connect."
Liu Hongmin smiled and said: "RTV and Zhongtai But if there is cooperation, I will not get involved.”
“We do have cooperation, but this time I want to deepen our cooperation and co-produce some dramas. If it weren’t for you, RTV would have been replaced by TVB. The pressure is so tight that we don’t even have a chance to breathe. So, in order to fight against TVB, we must find foreign aid. If "Journey to the West" is as good as you say, then China and Taiwan are a candidate for cooperation. "
Liu Hongmin nodded, "When Brother Qiang arrives in the capital, I will help you introduce Director Wang."
"Thank you, Brother Liu."
The next day, Huang Qiang rushed to the capital. Liu Hongmin helped him introduce Director Wang, who was very interested in the cooperation Huang Qiang mentioned.
However, the system in the mainland is different from that in Xiangjiang. Director Wang cannot unite with RTV to suppress TVB, but there is still no problem in reaching cooperation with RTV on several TV series.
The cooperation intention has been reached, and it is none of Liu Hongmin's business how to cooperate in the future.
After his success and retirement, Liu Hongmin began to create the second part of "Pirates of the Caribbean", "The Soul's Chest".
"The Curse of the Black Pearl" has given Random House a sweet spot, and Richard has been urging Liu Hongmin for several months.
It's just that Liu Hongmin has been busy, which is why it has been delayed until now.
"The Dead Man's Chest" tells the story of Captain Jack who owed a blood debt to Davy Jones, the captain of the "Flying Dutchman". In order to repay the debt and gain freedom, Jack and several other forces competed for the huge possessions. The story of the magical soul-gathering coffin.
The "Flying Dutchman" is a magic ship. Due to a curse, all the crew members on it have become slaves of the captain Davy Jones and obey his orders. If you want to get rid of the curse of Davy Jones, there is only one way to find a treasure with powerful magic called the Soul Gathering Coffin.
Liu Hongmin divided "The Soul Gathering Coffin" into several stories:
Davy Jones's Bloody Debt - tells the story of Captain Jack Sparrow making a deal with Davy Jones, the ruler of the Thebes Sea and the Demon King of the Sea, in order to retrieve the Black Pearl. As long as he can recover the Black Pearl, then he will give his soul to Davy Jones.
The Aborted Wedding - Will Turner and Elizabeth's wedding was ruined by the Royal Navy, and the Royal Navy Commander Bycote imprisoned Elizabeth. In order to rescue his beloved, Will Turner had to reach an agreement with Bycot, using Captain Jack's magic compass in exchange for Elizabeth's safety.
Boom Island - Captain Jack secretly boarded the "Flying Dutchman" in order to search for clues about the Soul Resurrection Coffin. As a result, he was discovered by Will Turner's father Bill Turner. Na left a mark on Liu and became the target of the octopus monster.
He had to escape to the island, and then met the cannibals. He survived by pretending to be a ghost. Will Turner came over, and the two of them joined forces to escape the cannibals.
In order to find the key, they went to the witch and got the coordinates of the immortal. Captain Jack then used Will Turner as collateral to make another deal with Davy Jones.
Battle for the Treasure - Jack came to a small island in order to recruit crew members. Here met the Royal Navy and Elizabeth. Baicot is eager to make meritorious deeds, giving Captain Jack an opportunity. Captain Jack uses Elizabeth's magic compass to find the location of the Soul Coffin.
On the other side, Will Turner stole Davy Jones' key. Davy Jones realized that this was Captain Jack's conspiracy and immediately rushed to the treasure place.
Two groups of people met here, and there was a big fight at the treasure place. In particular, the melee between Captain Jack, Will Turner and Bycot on the rolling wooden wheel is the two biggest points in the entire book.
Under various conspiracies, Jack was swallowed by the octopus monster. Elizabeth and the crew left, and the heart was taken away by the commander and handed over to the Royal Navy.
Elizabeth and others thought that Captain Jack was dead, but the witch told everyone that they could find Captain Jack and recommended a captain to them. It was Captain Barbossa who died in the first film.
The World of Death - Babos led everyone to the World of Death. When crossing the River Styx, everyone saw many souls heading to the World of Death. Elizabeth sees her father's soul and wants to save her father but cannot.
Everyone found Captain Jack, but Captain Jack no longer believed them. Under distrust, they reached an agreement and escaped from the world of death together.
The overlord of the sea - Baicot got the soul coffin and threatened Davy Jones with the heart in the soul coffin. Relying on the powerful "Flying Dutchman", Baicot quickly became the overlord of the sea. He attacked pirates everywhere at sea, forcing the pirates to unite and fight against Baicot.
Barbossa relied on the grace of saving his life to let Captain Jack attend the pirate convention. But before the trip could take place, the Black Pearl encountered the Royal Navy. Captain Jack had to escape and then wait for an opportunity to regain control of the Black Pearl.
Bycot also heard that the pirates were going to hold a convention, so he sent Will Turner as an undercover agent.
At the pirate conference, Barbossa used the tokens of the nine pirates to successfully awaken the sleeping ocean goddess Lypso. Lypso's huge body was simply not something Davy Jones could compete with.
The final battle - Captain Jack took the opportunity to launch an attack. The Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman fought closely, and finally succeeded in boarding the Flying Dutchman by relying on the maelstrom left after sealing Lypso. Number. Will Turner is seriously injured and on the verge of death. Captain Jack Sparrow steals his heart, making Will Turner the new captain of the Flying Dutchman.
