"Come Uninvited", which is the American version of "Rose Red Lotus", is really low-cost based on the production cost!

4 million US dollars, even if it is placed in China, it is not a large amount of funds...

"Kung Fu King", other actors' pay is more than that - Jet Li and Cheng Long are investors and do not pay...

$4 million, and still want to get others to invest and then charge the issuance fee yourself?

This is shameless.

Shameless!

hegemonism!

American cooperation!

It is obvious that I just want to take advantage of it, but I still refuse to do my best...

It doesn’t matter to Chen Mengxi. He has already received the $1 million adaptation fee. It is logical that Xijie Media should be the same...

Anyway, "Rose Red Lotus" has made a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, the people from Xijie actually agreed immediately!

And in the conversation, there is a feeling of honor...

People are taking advantage of you...

Be convinced!

...

Xijie agreed, how could Chen Mengxi have no objection?

He is just a 'creator'.

The next day, I had an appointment with the American screenwriter Doug Milo.

Chen Mengxi knew that he would be the screenwriter of "Drug Lord" in the future...

"Drug Lord", Netflix's magical drama, supported Netflix's high profile after 2015.

Doug Milo also became a top Hollywood screenwriter!

Of course, he is now just a small screenwriter who writes scripts for DreamWorks...

Chen Mengxi gave himself advice: "The scale can be enlarged a little, and there is no need to be like the Korean version. We directly revealed the truth from the beginning: Anna killed her mother and her sister..."

Doug Milo shook his head: "...No, it's my sister. Anna killed her because she was subconsciously jealous of her sister's boyfriend. She had an Oedipus plot, so she killed her stepmother..."

Chen Mengxi swallowed...

Are you Americans playing so much?

Still loving the father?

Perhaps because he was worried that the original author would be angry, Doug also met: "It is difficult to get a high box office with an investment of 4 million without adding a little stimulating shot!"

“…What you said makes sense…”

"Also, Anna is a subconsciously psychopathic murderer. She not only killed her family, but also killed the nurses and attending doctors in the hospital..."

Hearing this, Chen Mengxi could not accept it: "That would become a simple murderer story!"

"No, all of this is something she imagined, the product of personality splitting, we don't need to take a specific shot of Anna's murder..."

""Fatal ID"?"

"Yes, we have to guide in the direction of suspense..."

Chen Mengxi also became interested: "That Anna's ultimate personality?"

"Killed by her father!"

“…What a wonderful story!”

Hearing this, Chen Mengxi had nothing to say...

Tsk, a good psychological suspense film has been changed into a bloody horror film with multiple personality...

Maybe this is what American tastes.

Many horror films that are highly praised in Asia, once they are changed to the American version, will immediately disappear and become batch-based and fast-food-based products...

Compared with Asian films, most of them want simple sensory stimulation and are unwilling to think about it.

So the original movie "The Curse" and "Midnight Bell" that only appeared in the ghost was sold poorly in the United States, but after the remake, they all sold well!

The same is true for "Rose Red Lotus". Perhaps in Doug Milo's opinion, the plot is slow and there are no exciting shots, which is not attractive enough...

He was also released in the United States and was released on a small scale, with a poor box office.

He changed this way, maybe this could be a big deal!

However, can this thing be called the American version of "Rose Red Lotus" like this?

Forget it, the name has been changed to "Come Uninvited". I guess it's even more if I change it to another person. It's possible to change it directly into the adult version!

...

Chen Mengxi had no objection to the script, but when he set the character, he thought about it and asked Doug to set the nurse as an Asian...

Then he suggested that Xijie invite Song Hye Kyo...

Don't get me wrong, he just thought about the box office - asking the original heroine to star in it is also a kind of reward for the audience!

Private affairs are just private matters!

No matter how unhappy Chen Mengxi is, she must admit that if she is willing to make a guest appearance, it will be very beneficial to the Asian release of "Uninvited".

DreamWorks still has global distribution capabilities...

By the way, Chen Mengxi also participated in "Uninvited Come", with a total investment of one million US dollars, accounting for 25% of the investment...

I have read the report before, and it is the box office statistics of the American remake that someone summarized after the release of "Ghost in the Shell"...

Among them is the American version of "Rose Red Lotus", original time and space, the American box office of "Uninvited" seems to be 12 million US dollars, and the global box office exceeded 50 million US dollars...

It is a reliable project.

Chen Mengxi is not stupid, so he will certainly participate in the business that can make money!

Even if he can't get the subsequent copyright sharing, he can make at least twice the profit.

By the way, he invested in the name of Mengxi studio.

Mengxi studio, Mengxi Studio, registered address in New York, specifically the desk in an office building on Queens Street - the rent that needs to be paid is US$40,000. There are four desks in that office in total, and the other three are independent film investors similar to Mengxi Studio, and the producer...

There are more than Hollywood in the American film industry. According to statistics, at least 20,000 registered film companies!

Harvey Weinstein's Miramax came out of the New York independent film circle.

He didn't go to find Wan Ziren, an absolute supporting role in the entertainment industry, and there is no need to contact him for the time being. Wan Ziren has experienced the great success of "Saw" and is more determined than ever. He signed a contract with Sony for five movies...

However, he contacted David Webber of DreamWorks, who recommended a Woodpecker Publishing House to help publish "Mobile Maze"...

The staff of Hollywood studios are familiar with publishing houses. Many of their works are first distributed with the help of books, then they spend resources to hype and promote IP, and then announce adaptations of film and television works.

"Mobile Maze", escape from persecution - discover the truth - revenge counterattack, a typical dystopian setting!

The so-called utopia is not the heartbreaking utopia in "Struggle". It means a paradise in literal interpretation; dystopia is a place of ugliness and misfortunes. Material civilization is overflowing and higher than spiritual civilization. The spirit depends on matter, and the spirit is controlled by matter and does not obtain true freedom.

The plot setting refers to "Battle Royale" and "The Hunger Games"...

It was just a group of teenagers who entered the mobile maze and then a lot of things happened...

It should be said that the existing dystopian films set by Hitomi Mizuno's work "Battle Royale". This movie is the pioneer: every year, students from a class are randomly selected from schools across the country to go to the desert island for survival extreme challenges. The teacher sends students a map, food and various weapons, so that they can kill each other until the last one survives, and they can only leave the desert island.

Why not write The Hunger Games first?

The reason is very simple. Now it is time for feminism to rise, pure heroine movies are not popular in the market...

It’s useless to shake the air and cool down, this is how the times develop!
