Entertainment tycoon since 83

You have to know that Huang Ze was already an adult at that time. After reading "The Divine Chef Little Fugui", "The Legend of the Seven Heroes of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit", "The Adventures of Qiqi and Keke" and "The Divine Baby of the East", he couldn't help but want to pull out the name following the literary planner and torture him severely.

What's going on in your head? This is a cartoon, it's for kids.

Why do you have to make it so miserable?

Are you secretly happy when you see children all over the country crying?

Compared to those movies, not a single character in "Lilo & Stitch" died, let alone the protagonist, so it's really a small case.

This humanistic element can be said to be added just right.

all in all.

“Great shot!”

"Chris, you did a great job." It was just a compliment. Huang Ze was never stingy with it. He would give it as much as he wanted!

"Boss! Then its North American release."

"Don't worry!" Huang Ze waved his hand, "I'll contact Warner right away. Even if Warner doesn't agree, there are other distribution companies that are willing to do it."

"That's good!"

"There's one more thing." Chris smiled shyly, "In the past few years in the company, I've come into contact with many Chinese people and have become interested in Chinese culture, so I used my free time to write a script."

"Boss, I wonder if you are free, can you take a look?"

"Oh?" Huang Ze raised his eyebrows, "What are you talking about?"

"Mulan, a story about joining the army to replace her father..."

"I know this. You don't need to introduce the story." Jijiji, Jijiji, Mulan is weaving by the window, two rabbits are walking side by side on the ground, how can you tell whether I am a male or a female?

Even though this story is not in the textbooks, I have heard it when I was a child.

"Bring it here and let me see it." Huang Ze was very pleased.

The employees under you should have this kind of subjective initiative.

Know how to take the initiative to consider things for the boss, so that the boss can make a lot of money and buy luxury houses, beautiful women, and private jets.

"Wait a minute!" Chris turned and walked out.

Gong Xing looked at Huang Ze in surprise, "This foreigner has only been in Hong Kong for a few years, and he has already made up the story of Mulan? Can he write it well? Adaptation is not just making random comments."

"Have you seen Liu Xiao Ling Tong?"

"We met once, but we never talked. What happened?" Gong Xing asked curiously.

"Nothing." Huang Ze smiled. "The story of Hua Mulan is not detailed enough. As long as the general framework is correct, it's fine. Even if the time of the story is wrong, it's not a big problem."

"Oh, by the way, which dynasty did Hua Mulan live from?" When talking about Mulan, Gong Xing found that his knowledge reserves were not enough.

"Northern Wei!"

"Aren't the Northern Wei people Xianbei? They went to fight the nomadic people." Gong Xing frowned even more tightly, "Aren't they nomadic?"

"Yes!" Huang Ze nodded. "Is there anything abnormal? At that time, the Northern Wei Dynasty also set up six military prefectures in the north. The six military prefectures usually went north to rob nomads. Later, they could not rob anymore. Coupled with various factors, the Six Military Prefectures Rebellion broke out, and then the Northern Wei Dynasty went from bad to worse."

"The Six Towns Rebellion was won?"

"They were defeated, but the people who suppressed the rebellion took power. The emperor was successfully assassinated, but was killed by the other party's family."

"Hey, that period was very chaotic." Huang Ze couldn't explain it in such a short time, so he stopped talking. After Chris came back, he asked the company employees to find some copies of other cartoons for his son to watch. He took Chris's script to the office and sat down to read the script from beginning to end.

Then he drummed his fingers on the table and looked at Chris.

"Where did you get the information?" "Go north to fight the Huns?"

"The information I found is about a nomadic people called Rouran," Chris explained while gesturing. "But if this film wants to recoup its costs, the North American market is the most important. In North America, Rouran is not well-known, but quite a number of people know about Xiongnu, and they also know how powerful they are, which makes it easier for the audience to understand."

"I see."

The Scourge of God, Attila the Hun.

After being defeated by the Han Dynasty, he was arrogant in Europe for a while.

"Then why don't you just use Mongolia?" Mongolia has a larger territory and a stronger influence on the West.

"I'm worried that you won't be able to accept it, boss." Chris said, "Boss, there are also a considerable number of Mongolians in your country. If you attack Mongolia, I'm afraid you will get into trouble at home, and it is likely to cause protests from Mongolia."

"The Xiongnu don't have this worry at all. According to the information I have verified, this nation has disappeared in history. If we write about them, no one will cause trouble for us."

"..." Huang Ze admitted that he was careless.

These factors were not taken into account.

If we think along the lines of what Chris said, the Huns are indeed better than the Rouran. Anyway, foreign audiences don't know whether Mulan is fighting against the Huns or the Rouran.

As for the domestic...

"Oh! That's right."

Huang Ze slapped his head and said, "The English version is called Xiongnu, and the Chinese version is called Rouran. Both sides have advantages."

Even if someone finds out, it's just a small mistake and nothing serious.

Of course, it only refers to the Huns. If it is used as Mongolia, Huang Ze feels that it will be a big problem.

After all, in the previous life, there was a film called "The Reign of Zhenguan", which just talked about the Turks honestly, and it had to be changed into the Eighteen Parts of the Grassland.

Using Mongolia is obviously more serious.

"Boss, you're right!" Chris nodded repeatedly, "Why didn't I think of doing this?"

Huang Ze was quite happy at first, but then he changed his mind and couldn't help but look into Chris's eyes.

Didn't you really expect that?

I left it like this on purpose so that I can modify it.

If it's the latter, wow, Chris adapts to the local customs pretty quickly.

After staring at Chris for a few seconds and seeing that he remained calm, Huang Ze didn't bother to think about it any further. Let him do whatever he wants. The most important thing is to make money.

"Then the project can be advanced. Of course, the company will transfer more than half of its staff to the Shanghai branch, and this project will also be advanced in Shanghai."

"what?"

"Didn't I tell you? After we finish StarCraft: Stitch, we will also set up the Shanghai branch of StarCraft Animation, and the Shanghai artists in the company will go back to work."

"No, no, no, that's not what I'm talking about." Chris paused, "I'm saying, our Lilo & Stitch hasn't even been released yet, but we're going to push forward with the Mulan project?"

"What else?" Let employees get paid for free in my company?

The previous project has ended, and they are not rushing to shoot a new film. Should we let them take a vacation?
"No problem!" Chris smiled relievedly.

He thought that he would have to wait until the "Lilo & Stitch" project had box office profitability before filming his "Mulan". If "Lilo & Stitch" lost money, the company might even go bankrupt, and Huang Ze would give up the animation business.

Now it seems that Huang is still determined to make the company bigger and stronger. He completely misjudged his boss. Regardless of whether "Lilo & Stitch" is profitable or not, "Mulan" will be launched normally. (End of this chapter)
