Coquettish Rebirth

Chapter 2507 Adoption?

After Jia Hongjian got in touch with Wu Yusen for a while, at the beginning, Old Wu was still a little reluctant to take on new films - how could he work one after another, he had to take a good rest and take his family with him. After going exclusive, this is the next movie, okay?And speaking of it, Jia Hung-chien's film actually didn't say that it was so creative that John Woo liked it and couldn't make it, so they definitely weren't very happy at first.

However, after knowing that Jia Hongjian from DreamWorks is Chinese, and that this film is a huge investment of [-] million US dollars, this old Wu became a little interested.After finally reading the outline of the plot, the old man gave Jia Hongjian a face and agreed to come down to direct such a play, but he also made it clear that he had to finish it with his family exclusively.As for the exclusivity, about one or two months or two or three months.

Jia Hongjian said that there is no problem, after all, he is not in a hurry to make this movie.I went to Wu Yusen myself, but in fact it was just to find a persuasive excuse!It's just to be able to better match the two dogs, Pete and Julie!However, after probably negotiating with Wu Yusen, the old Wu complained to Jia Hongjian about why he chose such a voluptuous girl with thick lips like Angelina Jolie.According to Lao Wu, the role of the heroine in this play is to be noble and glamorous, and to look like a lady is more dramatic.In this way, when the heroine is usually at home, she acts noble and glamorous, as if she is otherworldly, and then turns her face away and waits for her husband to be away.Then she would become a cold-blooded female killer... What a contrast!

Indeed, Jia Hongjian also agrees with Lao Wu's statement, and it is true that Nicole Kidman is more suitable.But the problem is, Nicole Kidman will not tempt Pete to cheat!Of course, Jia Hongjian couldn't take this as a reason to tell Wu Yusen, he could only find a random reason - "Nicole Kidman's box office appeal has not been very good. I found that Nicole Kidman But although Kidman's acting skills are very good, but the films she acted in seem to be average at the box office. Although Nicole Kidman is indeed a top actress in Hollywood, I still think it may be necessary to find someone else to be the leading actress The effect will be much better.”

Wu Yusen reluctantly agreed with this statement.The films made by Nicole Kidman have never had any Hollywood first-line commercial blockbusters.Basically, they are a bit biased towards literary films.Basically, it is necessary to reflect her acting skills.So from this perspective, Nicole Kidman herself is relatively glamorous and noble.Such a glamorous and noble actress came here and kept showing her acting skills, but the whole film didn't do well at the box office.In the end, Nicole Kidman won various queen titles herself.But movies don't make a lot of money.This will naturally make the boss of the film company a little nervous, and Old Wu can understand this.

After Lao Wu was settled here, Jia Hongjian reported the selection result of the director to Julie's agent.This suddenly put Julie and her agent in a difficult choice.Because the potential shown by both sides is very good, which one should we choose?After a few days of hesitation, under the influence of her agent, Julie finally chose such a shooting plan from Jia Hongjian and the others.The reason is also very simple - looking at history, there are really not many movies adapted from games that can become a hit!

That's right, throughout the 90s, there were only a few Hollywood movies adapted from video games-"Street Fighter", "Mortal Kombat", and "Mortal Kombat 2".These are all adapted from fighting games, but the box office of each of them was dismal!Originally, when adapting, it had to be changed from a video game, and it had to please both the public and the fans. The script and the overall production cost could not be low.As a result, the fees paid by these film companies are not high!For example, in the 6000s when the overall investment of blockbuster films was 8000-90 million or even 2000-[-] million US dollars, the investment of films such as "Street Fighter" was about [-] million US dollars, and this still included promotional expenses. How did this thing be filmed?Just use a bunch of bananas to ask monkeys to bid for the price, can this be auctioned for human things?Isn't it the level of monkeys to shoot again?

So in the year 2000, movies adapted from games were synonymous with unreliability!That is to say, the film "Tomb Raider" has a relatively high investment, and there are about 6000 million US dollars, so Julie is a little interested.But in fact, if you calculate it, the cost of "Tomb Raider" is 6000 million, while "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is an investment of 1 million US dollars. The effect is likely to be different, after all, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice!

So in the end, it was not surprising that Julie agreed to Jia Hongjian's side.However, this caused Jia Hongjian to destroy history unintentionally. In fact, in history, it was "Tomb Raider", the movie starring Julie, that made video game adaptation movies have a way out, and made people realize that game adaptation As long as the budget is in place, it can still be a good-looking movie!You must know that the time for game adaptation to movies in history is really short, and it really didn’t start until the 90s-how did the screens of video games in the past be changed into movies?Pixel style Mario can this be adapted into a movie?

It can be said that it is due to the improvement of game console screens caused by technological progress. In the 3D era, people can see the approximate three-dimensional modeling of characters, or use real-life images and games to form two-dimensional clear screens. Only then can it be adapted into Movie!If there is no "Tomb Raider", then the next "Resident Evil" and "Prince of Persia" will probably be delayed for many years!However, Jia Hongjian definitely doesn't care about this. Anyway, he doesn't rely on movies for a living, and he doesn't make a living by himself, and he doesn't think much about adapting video games into movies. It doesn't affect him anyway. What is he afraid of?

After this has been roughly settled, the next thing to do is of course to find screenwriters everywhere to complete such a script.On the one hand, Jia Hongjian asked Katzenberg to form a team to find a suitable screenwriter, and on the other hand, he started to prepare for Pete and Julie. First of all, Pete, needless to say, must start exercising. Get all the muscles out, and then it will look good.

This is true for Pete, but it is another way for Julie Jia Hongjian. Although he also wants Julie to do some dance training, this method can at least reach the level of a female action star—because When shooting, you must not use doubles all the time!It is best to go up and fight by yourself.On the other hand, Jia Hongjian cooperated with the slightly revised plot outline and tricked Julie into going to Myanmar.

Why go to Myanmar?It's very simple, because Jia Hongjian changed the first mission after Jolie's movie started to Burma.She just wants to change from a glamorous and noble hostess of a rich family to a killer who single-handedly breaks into the territory of Burmese drug lords and kills the whole family of drug lords by herself!Then why did Jia Hongjian change it to Myanmar?The reason is also very simple, if he wants to make Julie give birth to a mother, then he must not let Julie give birth to one herself!Relatively speaking, adopting one may be easier!

That's right, adopt!Jia Hongjian vaguely remembered that Julie and Pete adopted several children in their previous life, and they seemed to be from Cambodia or somewhere!For ordinary people, adopting a child may be a lot of pressure, and they may think a lot - after all, it is a life, it is impossible for us to release it after a few days of play after adoption?Have to worry about being responsible for at least ten years?How much would it cost just for such an effort?How is it possible not to think about it carefully?

But Jia Hongjian reckoned that maybe Julie wouldn't think too much about such a wonderful girl, a woman who got married twice in 6 years and married 10 times in 3 years. Getting married right away, how could such a person be thoughtful?That must be impulsive!So Jia Hung-chien thought, fooling Julie to get her excited, and go to places like Myanmar to adopt a child and look for a mother. Anyway, she has a lot of money, so there is no need to worry about not being able to raise the child!Even if there are various things that need to be thought about, she can spend money to solve them!For example, find a driver and a nanny to send the child to school, or find a psychologist to provide psychological counseling for the child.It's really okay for a rich mother to treat a child who is not her own!

In this way, if Julie really wants to adopt a child, her husband of the rock and roll old man may not support it?Maybe there will be family conflicts as a result?Here, Jia Hongjian will make a few more provocations, and then let the handsome guy Pete go over and persuade him... Maybe he will be fired!Maybe it can cultivate ambiguity!This is the so-called no conflict between husband and wife, so we have to create opportunities for them to have conflict!Isn't this kind of thing about educating children the most likely to cause differences between men and women!

For men, their dna is to plant seeds and leave them alone. From the beginning of primitive society, it is women who take care of children.Therefore, even if a woman adopts a child, she is quite concerned about it!As for men, after seeing their children with their own eyes at the beginning, they may slowly develop the desire to be a father, have a sense of responsibility, and truly grow up.When adopting a child, especially when he has no children of his own, how much can this man care about the child?At least for that rock old man, Jia Hongjian didn't think highly of him!

"Go to Myanmar? Adopt a child and look for the feeling of wanting a child? The feeling of wanting to be a mother?" After hearing Jia Hongjian's suggestion, Julie, a non-mainstream woman, her eyes sparkled, as if I really want to give it a try... (to be continued...)
