Chapter 951： Aesthetic problem
Latest website: In recent years, a large number of popular dramas have been born in North America, but fantasy series have never appeared on the prime time TV series schedule.
This type of drama seems to have been lacking powerful works.
In the drama production industry, to a certain extent, the first person to eat crabs can often get the most benefit.
The first hot work of a certain type of drama will have a huge impact.
For example, the previous "The Walking Dead".
The biggest problem that plagues fantasy subjects is undoubtedly investment.
High production costs are usually one of the reasons why fantasy series cannot be released. Even if Shahai Entertainment invests up to 60 million US dollars in a single season, when filming the first season of "Game of Thrones", it will focus more on characters, characters and The plot develops while avoiding those large-scale war scenes.
Large-scale war scenes cost a lot of money. After all, this is not a summer commercial film, but a TV series that pays more attention to the plot. In addition, it is the first season. Instead of spending money on war scenes, it is better to further polish the plot.
In fact, the full-scale outbreak of war in the original book did not begin to appear until after the first volume.
Fantasy creatures like Bento King will only flash past the first season.
Without these fantasy creatures, the cost of expensive CG production can undoubtedly be saved.
As Shahai Entertainment obtained a tax rebate of up to 6 million U.S. dollars from Bulgaria, Ronan did not hesitate to set the main filming base of the series in Bulgaria and other Southeast European countries after the professional inspection. At the same time, he is basically certain to shoot in Sofia. The scene of Strowland.
There are also several location inspection teams that are also dispatched in advance to find suitable location shooting locations in Europe and the United States.
Ronan also had enough communication and exchanges with the main creators. "Game of Thrones" is not a film and television work that tends to be teenagers like the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, but a series for adult audiences to watch, an ideal finished product. The episodes are luxurious, bloody, dark, weird, and sometimes even surprisingly sweet, intertwined with malice and kindness, just as unpredictable as life.
In addition, the core concept of the drama has long been erected by George Martin in the creation of the script-there is no absolute justice, only eternal power!
George Martin's thoughts are actually fully reflected in his own works. For example, everyone thinks that they are the protagonist of the world before they die. In fact, only history is.
Although in the eyes of many high-end power drama fans, "Game of Thrones" is more like a playhouse in a medieval village, but the great commercial success is obvious.
The conspiracy or struggle in the drama may not be the more sophisticated and complicated the better. Once the audience can't understand it, the tragedy of abandoning the drama will happen.
Once this happens, it will undoubtedly bring huge losses to the production company.
The crew has only identified two main actors for the time being, and the other actors basically have to go through auditions to solve them. As for the former dragon mother, Ronan has no idea where.
Speaking of it, that is also a very amazing actress. As long as she laughs, her appearance will immediately collapse...
The actor who played the three fools must be replaced. The one who was too strong once also played the role of Phoenix in the X-Men. It is said that the later collapse of the "X-Men" series of movies is directly related to the failure of Phoenix's casting.
"X-Men: Fat Phoenix" is not so miserable.
Hollywood castings are sometimes really fascinating. For example, once Disney chose black people to star in "The Little Mermaid", the industry and outsiders also understand why.
But a character like Fat Phoenix can easily leave a bad impression on the audience at first glance, and casting a role is simply disastrous.
Ronan still remembers that a colleague once said that after watching "Game of Thrones", the actress said: The strong can beat the skin to death but also pretend to be weak, casting the audience like a fool.
It is said that the 96-year-old is just like the 69-year-old, can you not rush?
Perhaps the 20th century Fox’s aesthetic is problematic.
Ronan remembers that the two actors who were the last candidates in Phoenix, one was the three fools, and the other was Saoirse Ronan, both of whom were born and old.
In terms of actors, Relativity Entertainment has also signed a new cooperation agreement with CAA. The two parties will continue their in-depth cooperation in film and drama production.
Shahai Entertainment, a subsidiary of Relativity Entertainment, produces more than 20 film and television projects each year, which will provide employment opportunities for a large number of actors.
Ronan also specifically emphasized the need to ensure the legitimate rights and interests of co-actors at the high-level meeting of Shahai Entertainment.
It is now 2006, and the 20-year contracts signed by major producers and major Hollywood labor unions are about to expire in two years.
The major trade unions in Hollywood have never been a display, so many things can be expected.
A new general strike is bound to happen and cannot be avoided.
Ronan is also making preparations in advance, such as accumulating scripts, so as not to find a screenwriter.
Actors and directors, and even those technical types of work are easy to say, the requirements of the first two can always be met by the producer, and the requirements of the latter will not be too much, usually it is noisy, and more cakes.
The real trouble, like the 1988 strike, will only be screenwriters.
Ronan, as the boss and capital of a film company, naturally stands in opposition to the screenwriter.
At the beginning of September, a business investigation team from Estonia came to Los Angeles and started negotiations with Relativity Entertainment on various aspects of commercial cooperation such as movies.
The leader of the Estonian side is Carmen Case and one of their commerce ministers, who came with great sincerity.
Ronan also attaches great importance to it. After all, if the cooperation can be achieved, the crew of Relativity Entertainment will go to Estonia to film in the future, and Estonia can provide large tax rebates and financial subsidies.
These can effectively reduce the cost of a single project.
Therefore, Ronan asked Robert Iger to form a special team to negotiate with the delegation of Estonia.
Just like the negotiations with Bulgaria and Romania, it not only includes matters such as tax rebates and subsidies, but also involves various copyright protections of Relativity Entertainment in each other's market.
Until now, one of the key factors restricting the development of Relativity Entertainment in overseas markets includes piracy.
The sales of peripheral products rely heavily on copyright protection.
"The company has a statistics."
In the reception room on the top floor of the Theory of Relativity Building, Ronan said to Carmen Case, who is in a professional suit: "Since this year, the loss of Relativity Entertainment in overseas markets may reach $1 billion due to piracy issues."
Carmen-Cass said: "This problem is really a headache, and I am also very annoying. My book and clothing company has also reported infringement losses, but because of the legal problems of neighboring countries, it can't be resolved."
Ronan poured a glass of water for her and said, "Fortunately, the business environment has been improving in general, and the number of markets joining rules and order is also increasing."
Carmen Case picked up the cup, took a sip, then looked at Ronan’s reception room, and then said: “Remember that you were working in a small office building in Burbank, and the office was broken and broken. old."
Ronan answered, "At that time, it was not a good night. It would be nice to have a place to work." He laughed: "I remember that there was a newsstand under the company at that time. What the middle-aged woman selling newspapers most wanted to see , I jumped down from that old building."
"I guess she's disappointed?" Carmen Case smiled happily: "You became the most successful person who came out of that old building."
She tilted her head and looked at Ronan: "Looking back, you were really fighting back then. Your success is worthy of your hard work."
Ronan waved his hand: "I couldn't talk about it. At that time, if I could cheat, I would cheat. If I could cheat, I would cheat. In order to find the funds, I almost sold myself."
Carmen Cass joked: "I knew this, I bought you."
Ronan shrugged: "You were lack of financial resources. I went to the Middle East to find money. Now that I think about it, I also want to thank the Arabs. They are my lucky stars."
Carmen Cass said with a smile: "I guess they don't think so?"
Ronan said frankly: "I am now neighbors with them, coexisting peacefully and helping each other."
In Manchester United City, he and the Abu Dhabi consortium are indeed neighbors.
Carmen Case said softly: "The past is always very beautiful in retrospect."
"This is called the emotional effect." Ronan said: "People always miss the old, especially as they grow older, the best things are always in memory."
Once a group of post-80s colleagues got together and talked about how delicious chicken, duck and fish were when they were young. They had eaten all kinds of hard dishes when they grew up, but they couldn't find the taste of when they were young.
This is not so much the taste bud trouble, it is more of the emotional effect.
Even if I bring things from my childhood as they are, they still don’t taste as they remember.
Carmen Case seems to be considering Ronan's words very seriously: "The management and marketing experts I hired also said similar things. Feelings can always become a selling point of products. For example, fashionable retro is also a kind of affection effect."
Ronan nodded slightly: "It can be so good."
The two chatted about business and he asked, "How long are you in Los Angeles?"
"I'm not sure for the time being. I will always stay for a while." Carmen Case said: "Since I'm in Los Angeles, I always want to meet those old friends back then."
Ronan said, "Look at what day you have time, I will hold a welcome party for you at home."
Carmen Case was also not polite with Ronan: "Okay."
There was a knock on the door, and Connie pushed in at this moment, first glanced at Carmen Cass, and then said to Ronan: "Will Smith is here, there is something urgent for you, I took him to your office. "
Carmen Kath said goodbye immediately: "I'm going now, you are busy."
Ronan sent Carmen Cass out of the reception room, and when she entered the elevator, he walked to the office and asked, "Did Will say anything specific?"
"No." Connie thought for a while, then said: "He called someone when he came and mentioned the script and his son Jaden Smith."
