Age of Dreams

When Cameron debuted, he was not a prolific director.

Counting his film career, in more than two decades, the total number of films made is not as many as Fatty Wang sometimes made in a year.

From the beginning of "Titanic", Cameron has become a standard ten-year sharp sword. After "Titanic" was released in November 1997, "Avatar" was released at the end of 2009. As for the legendary "Avatar 2", there is no news in 2013, it is said that the fastest file will be in 2016.

Of course, this life "Avatar 2" will take more time, because Cameron has already started directing "The Hunger Games" at the invitation of Xiao Qi.

Cameron has already passed the "Titanic" ordained god, and now "Avatar" has made him the world's number one commercial director, so the next "Hunger Games" has attracted the attention of countless people.

Not only the fans are looking forward to it, but also those in the industry, as long as they can be next to the side, they all hope to rush in and get a share of the pie.

The most active are the investors.

But when they came to the door, they found that Cameron, who had previously needed to constantly increase the budget, had no plans to increase the budget and draw other companies into the market to share the risk this time.

The reason is simple, this time the investor in "The Hunger Games" is Disney.

And Disney has become the private company of the world's richest man Xiao Qi last year. With Xiao Qi behind his back, how could Cameron worry about not having funds available?

It is said that Xiao Qi’s initial budget for Cameron is US$500 million. Even the wealthy Sony Pictures will weigh such a huge figure, and only Disney can take it out without blinking.

And according to Cameron's urination, if he doesn't add a budget of two or three billion, then it is not Cameron, the king of waste.

Investors, no matter how confident they are in Cameron, will inevitably be a little drummed in their hearts when they encounter a budget of 780 million U.S. dollars.

If you say it is "Avatar 2", then everyone is confident to invest in it.

But one I have never heard of before. Can movies based on novels that have only recently become popular can have such a big success?

Many people also have some doubts in their hearts and dare not draw conclusions easily.

No matter how unconfident they are, one is Cameron, the king of commercial films. The other is Xiao Qi, the richest man in the world. Both are famous super geniuses. They don't make mistakes together!

Investors retreat, and the next big broker companies are.

"The Hunger Games" is expected to be a trilogy, as everyone knows. However, "The Hunger Games" has a lot of characters, and it needs a lot of leading and general supporting roles, which gives the brokerage company room to operate.

Take the first part of "The Hunger Games". Except for the heroine Katniss in the first part, the male number one Pitta, the players in other districts, mentors, draws, hosts, etc., are all There are at least 20 actors who have a head and a face, big and small actors.

Every movie made by Cameron is popular with many people, and it is a kind of fame and fortune.

Therefore, the main supporting role of the main twenty or so. It was robbed by countless people.

Americans choose the main and supporting roles of movies. Actually, there are a lot of tricks. There will be some rules, but their basic routines and guidelines are there. Under normal circumstances, they will not be too far off. Everything is based on the movie itself. .

Especially Cameron, he basically doesn't do that. The casting directors who cooperate with him also understand his mind. It is okay to eat a little money and play friendly matches with female stars. But the selected actors must not be bad, otherwise you will wait for the tyrant on the set to be devastated by the storm.

Big cousin Jennifer Lawrence got the heroine of Katniss under such circumstances.

Cameron found more than 20 first- and second-tier female celebrities, and after five rounds of non-stop screening and testing, he finally chose this beautiful blonde Yangma.

Above the heroine. Cameron did not give Xiao Qi face, but he did not compromise on the five Chinese actors that Xiao Qi had agreed with him.

Three mainland male and female celebrities, a Hong Kong male celebrity, and a treasure island female celebrity entered the crew so smoothly.

The five of them were able to get such a good opportunity, and naturally they all knew who was responsible, so Qiao Guoer, Li Shaozhi and Ling Shuangshuang had another layer of halo on their bodies. She has become the queen of the entertainment industry.

Not to mention Cameron's new movie this time, just think about those Disney movies in the future, it is enough to make countless stars crazy to please them.

Not to mention that these male and female stars are trying to please the three bosses.

After Cameron got the first 200 million US dollars, he did what he often did.

That is……

waste!

Yes, he just wasted again.

This time the first thing was wasted time.

At the beginning, Cameron himself went to the virgin forests of the northern United States and Canada to find the address of the first episode of The Hunger Games Battleground. At the same time, he threw a group of actors to a special training instructor and trained them like a group of fighters. The same, you can't even show that momentum.

After more than three months of tossing like this, when Cameron found the address and came back, he inspected the skills and abilities of these actors. Generally speaking, he felt pretty good, but the training results of the big cousin made him very dissatisfied. .

Anyone who has watched the first plot will know that the entire "Hunger Games" is not so much a sci-fi action movie, in fact the first one is only an action movie, except for the fights in the forest, those hosts We use the tablet screen to control the game outside, and the difficulty is increased. Almost all the rest can be moved to ancient times.

And the big cousin didn't use archery much in the first part, just a few times. The main part of the scene is actually the development of the plot.

So the archery posture, shape, and various exercises of the big cousin are almost enough.

Meeting a big-name director is just for her to adapt slowly, and then slowly enter the role in the second or third part.

But what she encountered was Cameron, who liked the more authentic ones. Even the custom-made porcelain was not in line with the background of the time, so she could all be destroyed and re-created as a new director. How could she tolerate the first protagonist of this play like this? Unprofessional?

Cameron specifically looked for the video of a group of female shooters in the Olympics, and then looked at the training results of the big cousin, and felt that it was as bad as a ****.

Therefore, he directly scolded Jennifer and prepared to drive her to South Korea to learn real archery.

In the world, the best women's archery skills are naturally Koreans, and their outstanding ones are called "land marksmen", which have the flavor of martial arts drama.

Cameron asked her to study for another three months, if she didn't do well, she would just change.

This frightened the big cousin. She quickly assured Cameron that she would learn well, but she applied to be able to study in China because she felt that China's women's archery was better.

When the 2008 Olympic Games were in the background, the Chinese women’s team players did indeed directly create miracles and crushed the South Korean marksmen. Although there are many factors at home, how could it be possible without sufficient strength? Beat them?

Cameron happened to watch this video, so after thinking about it, he agreed.

To say that the big cousin can stand out and be called the new generation of female superstars in Hollywood, she still has some skills.

In addition to the size of the Great Yanmar, she also has a bright mind.

When Cameron asked her to study archery in South Korea, she immediately thought of another thing.

That is, in recent months, there has been a rumor in Hollywood that Xiao Qi was planning to let his new love Scarlett Johansson star in "The Hunger Games", but Cameron resolutely chose the actors according to his own opinions, so He insisted on Xiao Qi's will and ignored it, and finally chose Jennifer.

The main reason is not that Cameron and Xiao Qi are facing each other, but Scarlett's height is too inconsistent with the setting of the novel. If Scarlett is 10 centimeters taller, then this role is definitely hers.

But it is said that Xiao Qi was very dissatisfied with this, which made the relationship between him and Cameron more rigid.

For the film industry, a good director is important, and funding is even more important.

Although Cameron is a first-rate director in the film industry, there are still several directors who are not inferior to him, such as Spielberg, such as Ridley Scott, such as Nolan, such as K. Reese Columbus, such as Gore Wibinski, etc., can direct "The Hunger Games."

As long as Xiao Qi is willing to spend money to invite one of them ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, "The Hunger Games" will not fail too much.

Especially Xiao Qi is only this year old, and it has always been smooth sailing. Once he feels upset, even if he loses money to let Cameron leave, it is nothing strange.

The world's richest man with more than 700 billion U.S. dollars in assets can of course be more willful.

Once Cameron was gone and another director came up, Jennifer's heroine could not be kept.

For this reason, her sense of crisis is very serious. This is also the reason why she has worked hard to train during this period.

It seems that Cameron is still not satisfied, and she wants to learn more professional archery. The big cousin suddenly has an idea, thinking that he can go to Hua Guo to communicate with Xiao Qi, so that he can understand his own strength and Determination, this might increase Xiao Qi's good impression and make him less despise himself.

The big cousin never feels that she is worse than Scarlett, especially in terms of figure. The figure of Ocean Horse has always been something she is very confident about. Since Scarlett can make Xiao Qi have a good impression on her, then she can definitely do too. Do it! (To be continued.)
