Chapter 365 You read that right, you are indeed the God of Hollywood Marvel

[Edited! ! 4800 words! ! ]

"Director Guan, if you keep doing this, no one will be able to play in the entertainment industry anymore."

Han Sanpin deliberately chose an appropriate time in the United States to call Guan Ling.

"Why is no one playing anymore?" Guan Ling was puzzled.

"I can't beat you."

There was a hint of teasing in the voice.

"I don't know if you did it on purpose, but the TV series "Awakening Age" has indeed dealt a heavy blow to the TV series producers."

"Boss Han, what do you mean by intentional?" Guan Ling also smiled and said, "I didn't intentionally break the record by filming on TV. It was just an accident."

"You might as well not say anything..."

Han Sanpin almost choked, but soon burst into laughter.

"You were deliberately trying to deceive me. I didn't even finish my words just now. But this time, you hit me over the head with this TV show. I'm completely stunned."

Although he said that he was stunned, Han Sanpin's tone did not show any dissatisfaction.
"Last year I only knew you were going to make a tribute TV series, but I really didn't expect you to come up with something like this. Since you've been doing this, I can't even shoot 'The Founding of a Party'."

He was really convinced.

Usually Han Sanpin watches less TV and more movies. After all, he is in the position and should do his job.

There is nothing I can do about it. After returning home, I devote myself to my family and my daughter. Who would watch TV dramas anyway?
Before Guan Ling starred in so many popular TV series, he had only watched "Da Ming" and didn't even take a look at "The Disguiser".

But this time, Han Sanpin watched "Awakening Age".

It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t watch it, but after watching a few episodes, he became obsessed.

At certain moments, his eyes turned slightly red.

It seemed as if his soul was trembling with him.

As a professional, he understands politics, history, and even more so film and television dramas.

But he was completely convinced by this TV series.

He even cried when watching many of the plots in the TV series. Many times, the plots on TV almost made him forget to breathe.

Those historical stories put him in the midst of them.

It seemed as if I could feel the heart-wrenching moment of suffering, the courage to never regret, and the surging desire to save the country and the people.

This caused him to be dazed most of the time while watching the movie.

This call was just for casual chatting.

But given his current position, he wouldn't have much to talk about if he called someone else.

That is to say, only by calling Guan Ling, who could be considered a close friend regardless of age difference, could he feel a little relieved.

"As a tribute drama that has been made to this extent, you are bound to win awards. This TV series should win all three major awards next year. From this perspective, I have wasted another year of my time as the producer of Dream of Red Mansions."

"Your TV series is all over the internet. I didn't expect you'd still be thinking about winning an award."

Guan Ling was not polite and just one sentence made Han Sanpin silent.

"You don't have to be so blunt."

After laughing twice, Han Sanpin stopped laughing again.

After waiting for a long time, he spoke again.
"In a recent meeting, many people spoke highly of your TV series. Some even thought that your TV series was a textbook of modern Chinese history. Many people thought that your film should be on the list of key TV series even if it were ten years later, and almost all of them voted unanimously.

As a literary work, you can get almost the same evaluation from the audience and the upper class. I can only say that it is unprecedented. "

Han Sanpin was filled with envy.

Although Guan Ling is young, his level is really high.

Sometimes he wanted to knock Guan Ling's head open to see what was inside his brain and why his inspiration would never run out.
How can someone so young come up with a TV script that depicts such a magnificent historical picture?

outrageous.

After hearing Han Sanpin's praise, Guan Ling said modestly that he would wait and see.

But I was not surprised by this situation.

In its previous life, this TV series won all three major awards for TV series.

There is no possibility of any accidents in this life.

So far, many Chinese films have won the three major awards, "Golden Wedding" is one of them. If "Lost" can win the Golden Eagle Award this year, it will be a sure win.

To be honest, the fact that "Awakening Age" failed to win the Grand Slam is not a loss for "Awakening Age", but for the three major television awards.

Who is missing is embarrassed.

"By the way, Mr. Han, how is the filming of The Founding of a Party going?"

"It took quite a long time to get the project started, and we have only been shooting for a month. But your TV series has made me want to change the script. We were originally making a tribute film to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, but now after reading your script, we are a little embarrassed. If we go to great lengths to make a movie, it will not be as popular as your TV series.

It really caused a big uproar.

Director Guan, why don’t you come back and give us some guidance.”

"Let's talk about it later. This new Hollywood movie is not easy to shoot. And I met Zhang Ziyi a while ago, and he has a movie that will also be shot in Hollywood."

"Any new projects?"

Han Sanpin's breathing became heavy.

"It's just a script. The shooting date hasn't been decided yet." Guan Ling said, "But it will also be shot in Hollywood."

"…share?"

"We haven't had time to discuss this yet, but Director Han is assured of this. I won't do anything that is not conducive to unity."

Han Sanpin chuckled and felt that he was a little too hasty.

No further questions were asked.

Guan Ling is now thriving, and Han Sanpin has a vague feeling that he is no longer the dominant party in terms of market share and production.

What's more, this is a movie shot in Hollywood.

If we really don't take him with us, there's nothing he can do.

But Guan Ling never thinks of doing things alone, which is one of the reasons why he is currently so successful.

At least China Film Group is now almost firmly tied to Guan Ling's chariot.

It doesn’t matter how much share you have, as long as you have it, it’s pure profit.

"Then I will wait for good news from Director Guan?"

"Let's talk about it then."

After hanging up the phone, Fan Bingbing continued to lie on Guan Ling, stammering.

After hesitating for a while, she raised her head curiously, "Director Han's call?"

"Correct."

Guan Ling glanced at Fan Bingbing. At this time, Fan Bingbing was wearing the Scarlet Witch's unique red clothes, and her hair had been dyed yellow.

It gives people an unusual sense of surprise.

It is very eye-catching. Although the red dress does not reveal a deep V, it is full of temptation. The mermaid line is very white, but there is not a trace of fat.

Sometimes, when I get really deep in it, I almost cry.

She cried softly, and after a while, she went upstairs by herself.

Only at this time did Fan Bingbing actually have time to talk to Guan Ling.

"Director Guan, you made a movie for Zhang Ziyi?"

Although Fan Bingbing started the work according to the procedures and was now enthusiastic in all aspects, his face just looked a little depressed.

It looks like he's obviously having an unpleasant taste in his mouth.

She used all her strength to win the great opportunity to come to Hollywood from Guan Ling, and Zhang Ziyi also came. She couldn't help feeling unhappy and about to burst.

This made her mood not too slow, and she was absent-minded when she moved.

But fortunately, her figure is so great that her whole body on Guan Ling seems to envelop the whole world.

Although he was unhappy, his actions did not change.

Guan Ling patted her butt, and she knew whether she should shift gears forward or backward or perform a spiral lift.

"Yes, there is one, but you can't act in this movie now."

Guan Ling sensed Fan Bingbing's emotions and explained, "This play requires very high acting skills. Of course, I'm not saying that your acting is bad, but this kind of literary and artistic film still has certain requirements for the status of the actors..."

Fan Bingbing understood.

But there was a sudden sense of urgency in my heart.

She knew that although Zhang Ziyi had some problems now, his status in the international film industry was not something she could challenge.

In China, only Gong Li, Zhou Xun and Liu Yifei can compete with each other.

"Director Guan, after filming Scarlet Witch, what do you think my status will be?"

"I didn't have high expectations for this movie. A global box office of $400 million to $500 million was within my expectations. But unlike Liu Yifei's previous Hollywood movies, the entire plot of this movie revolves around you."

Guan Ling's words made Fan Bingbing instantly excited. With a little effort, Guan Ling felt her tighten.

"When I read the script about the ultimate move, it was so scary. Director Guan, what is the level of Scarlet Witch's combat power?"

Fan Bingbing asked as he moved.

"If we compare it to Chinese mythology, if Iron Man is the stone man Sun Wukong, then the witch's strongest state is probably the Buddha with his palm outstretched."

Guan Ling pressed Fan Bingbing's buttocks with both hands.

"You got it right, you are indeed the God among Hollywood Marvel superheroes!"

……

For the movie "Scarlet Witch", Guan Linglong wrote two scripts in total.

These two works were written with the help of the dark transformation of Scarlet Witch in "Doctor Strange 1", "WandaVision" web drama, "Avengers 2" and "Doctor Strange 2".

There is a routine for independent American superhero movies, which are usually trilogies. The first part tells the origin, the second part is the upgrade, and the third part is the sublimation.

For example, Iron Man, the Hulk, and even Wolverine, the first movie is about a person pursuing his ideal.

The first individual movie of the three Marvel giants fully explains their origins and how they grow from an ordinary character to a hero.

As for the subsequent second and third parts, they are about personal growth and the display of the hero's personal beliefs.

But all this is difficult for Scarlet Witch because she does not have the personal beliefs of a hero.

This is a heroic figure who has a lot in common with feminism in later generations.

The history book can be activated at any time.

Her skill is to manipulate probability through magic balls, thereby stimulating various magical phenomena, whether it is creating energy fields, distorting objects, stopping bullets, making objects explode, releasing or eliminating energy, etc.

Unlike Doctor Strange, Doctor Strange's strongest ability is to go back in time.

Scarlet Witch is also a magician, but her berserker form is too invincible, almost being considered invincible, so the origin of her personal movie is quite difficult.

Moreover, the character of Scarlet Witch is quite special.

In the MCU, although Scarlet Witch is in the Avengers, she is not considered a "superhero" in the traditional sense.

As a superhero, in addition to abilities, you must also have your own creed.

For example, Batman, although his methods are cruel and his style is dark, his bottom line and creed is not to kill!
For example, Spider-Man’s creed is that with great power comes great responsibility.

Captain America's creed is to fight for the people.

Even Black Widow and Hawkeye have their own beliefs. Although Black Widow did not express her beliefs clearly, she once said in "Captain America 2": "I originally thought that S.H.I.E.L.D. was bright."

Black Widow did some bad things in the Red Room organization before, which led to her belief in fighting for the light.

As for Hawkeye, it was more direct, for his family.

But in the MCU, Scarlet Witch is actually just a high school girl, and her world view and other aspects are not yet fully mature.

Furthermore, due to their origins, she and Quicksilver were also hostile to others and were regarded as monsters.

Joining the Avengers is not so much about fulfilling the responsibilities of a superhero as it is about escaping from the world to some extent, and it is also about the Avengers "reforming" the Scarlet Witch, who has a bad background and an unstable personality.

So, in the MCU, we can see that Hawkeye teaches her responsibility on the battlefield, and Captain America teaches her kindness.

Later, she eloped with Vision. It can be said that the Scarlet Witch in the MCU is a hero without clear beliefs.

So in the setting of an independent film, either she would have to connect with all the people in the Avengers, but this is not very realistic for Guan Ling's filming.

Then we can only set Scarlet Witch’s origin as both good and evil.

And all this is due to the influence of the Dark Book.

In this move, Guan Ling actually copied a large part of the plot of "Avengers 2", which directly posed a big problem for Marvel.

And because Scarlet Witch is too invincible, Guan Ling cannot use her ultimate burst form.

Restrictions must be added. If a superhero cannot be killed by other people, then he suddenly explodes without any warning and forcibly ends the battle.

Then he will definitely pounce until even his mother won’t recognize him.

In his previous life, Guan Ling knew that this was the case with "X-Men: Apocalypse" and "X-Men: The Last Stand".

Therefore, the only choices for the settings are a few classic events. In the setting of the original comics, the "M Royal Family" event itself is actually a bit similar to an enlarged version of the setting in "WandaVision" where Wanda used magic to control the entire Westview town, because in "M Royal Family", Wanda controls the entire real world!
Wanda modified reality in order to escape it because she could not stand the stimulation of the real world. For this reason, in this major event, Wanda, stimulated by it, directly used chaos magic to modify the entire reality dimension. Many Avengers and X-Men enjoyed new identities in the "new world".

In fact, Wanda took care of these people to a certain extent, allowing them to have things in the new world that they never had before or had regrets about.

For example, after Spider-Man was re-set, he had a very happy family, and when he woke up, he found his beautiful wife Mary Jane next to him...

However, this reality is ultimately false. It is an illusory reality created by Wanda in order to escape her own reality. For this reason, in order to allow Wanda to restore her original reality, a group of Avengers and X-Men began to act in secret.

This kind of script will have to wait until at least the third part.

And it’s not something Guan Ling can consider on his own, because he can’t use many copyrights at all.

Guan Ling was even unable to apply all of the content in the Avengers, such as the first disbandment of the Avengers.

So Guan Ling had no choice but to deal with the origin of Marvel witches or characters like Agatha.

Guan Ling set up several similar characters to interweave their plot with Wanda's.

Just like the Ancient One in Doctor Strange.

There are more than a few witches with magic in the entire Marvel Universe. Moreover, characters like Wanda who focus on mysterious magic are actually more suitable to intertwine with villains such as Mephisto from the hell dimension and Sithon, the god of black magic.

Guan Ling also had a very clear idea of ​​her life experience, and then wrote the first step of the script of "Scarlet Witch" in the common superhero routine, from her mutual support and understanding with Agatha, to Agatha's blackening and preparing to absorb Wanda's magic power, but thousands of years of practice became Wanda's wedding dress, to Ultron's repentance, and the appearance of Vision, and finally the end of the first movie.

As for the second part, Guan Ling believes that it is the content of "Doctor Strange 2".

Family members died, for the sake of children, they destroyed the Illuminati and fought against Doctor Strange.

But that is a story for later.

Whether it even exists is another matter, it all depends on the copyright negotiations.

Of course, making money is one of the main reasons why Guan Ling wants to seize the plot of this character. He also wants to use this opportunity to extend his tentacles into Marvel.

Otherwise, it would be a shame that he wouldn't get a penny from such a profitable project.

To put it bluntly, even a failure is acceptable, because by then, Avengers, Age of Ultron, Doctor Strange, and even Ant-Man will all use Fan Bingbing.

Because they often have connections with Wanda.

As long as this movie comes out, whether it is successful or not, Guan Ling at least has a point of entry into Marvel.

Of course, there is still a chance of making money. Doctor Strange's previous life was able to sell nearly $600 million at the box office, which shows that superheroes are still easy to make money around the world.

For Fan Bingbing, whether this movie is successful or not, she has stepped into the most luxurious vortex in Hollywood!
