Chapter 1715 1 Listen to Your Arrangements

In order to facilitate Li Mu's reading, the script that Spielberg brought is a Chinese version, so the Chinese translation name of the protagonist Po is called A Bao.

Li Mu didn't like this name very much. Although it was very simple, it was too vulgar for a Chinese name.

"Fang Da" is a later Internet vocabulary. It is transliterated from the English name of panda, Panda, and cleverly added with Chinese meaning, especially the word "fat", which is simply the best portrayal of panda.

As for whether foreign audiences can understand the meaning of Pang Da, Li Mu doesn't care. It's best if they can understand, and it doesn't matter to them if they don't understand.

Spielberg also knows that overseas audiences don't care what a panda's Chinese name reads, just as Chinese audiences don't care whether an American is called Tom or Jack.

So he readily agreed and said, "Mr. Li, these can be done according to your requirements."

Li Mu nodded and added: "One more thing, I hope the place name in the play will be changed to 'Wolong Town', you try not to do transliteration, but to do free translation, so that Westerners know that the name of this place is A reclining dragon."

Wolong Giant Panda Breeding Center is currently the largest national-level giant panda breeding center in China. It is not far from Sichuan. Li Mu hopes to implant this real place name into the movie.

After watching the movie, the audience told them that there is really a place called Wolong Town in Bashu, China. There is not only a giant panda reserve here, but also the largest giant panda breeding base in China.

I believe that at that time, Wolong Town will surely civilize the world with this movie.

And Wolong Town, and even the entire tourist route of Bashu, will be greatly improved and developed as a result.

Spielberg naturally has no opinion, it is also a Chinese place name anyway, it doesn't matter what it is called, and Wolong is indeed a good name.

Immediately, Spielberg said immediately: "Mr. Li, the protagonist's name is Fanda, and the place's name is Wolong. I have written it down, and I will let them change it when I go back."

Li Mu nodded, flipped through the script, and found that it was no different from the "Kung Fu Panda" he watched in his previous life, so he asked curiously, "How long have you been doing this script? It seems that you have a good understanding of Chinese culture."

Spielberg explained: "This plan has actually been born very early, DreamWorks has always liked to do some innovative things, so we feel that the integration of Chinese culture and elements into Hollywood animation films, this kind of fusion should be very promising market.”

After speaking, Spielberg said again: "In 1998, Disney released a "Mulan", and I personally like that animation very much, but from a commercial point of view, the story of "Mulan" is in The United States has almost no popularity and lacks a sufficient fan base, so the overall box office is not very good."

Li Mu nodded in agreement and said, "There are countless ancient legends and stories in China. These are very famous in China, but they are really lacking in overseas popularity."

Spielberg said: "Actually, in my opinion, among the cultural elements that China has exported to the West, there are only two that have the most mass basis, one is Kung Fu and the other is Panda. The representative of Kung Fu is Bruce Lee, who should be in the United States. He is the most famous Chinese star, not to mention pandas. In the United States, although there are still many people who have never seen pandas, no one does not know pandas, and no one does not like pandas, so I want to combine kung fu and pandas Get up, in this way, you can lay a sufficient mass base for the film."

Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "If the protagonist is replaced by the image of a panda bear, the mass base will be stronger."

"That's right." Spielberg said hurriedly: "If the image of the panda bear is used, the movie will have three major elements: kung fu, panda, and panda bear, and I believe it will be very popular.

"

Li Mu looked at Spielberg and asked with a smile, "Then I said before about the cooperation model, I wonder if you have any objections, Steven?"

Spielberg hurriedly said: "Mr. Li, I have no opinion on your cooperation model."

"Okay." Li Mu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Since this is the case, then we will draw up a contract. The specific cooperation project is: I will license the image of the panda bear to "Kung Fu Panda" for free, and at the same time subscribe to "Kung Fu Panda" "30% share, based on this basis, I do not limit the number of episodes of "Kung Fu Panda" that DreamWorks can shoot, but there is a prerequisite."

Spielberg was also worried that if Li Mu only authorized three films, in case the film exploded and he was unwilling to authorize it after three films, the film would not be able to continue.

Now, Li Mu is willing to open the episode limit, which is absolutely good news for DreamWorks.

So, he hurriedly asked Li Mu: "Mr. Li, what prerequisites do you have? Please tell me!"

Li Mu said: "First of all, I have 30% voting rights for each "Kung Fu Panda"."

Spielberg said without hesitation: "This is no problem!"

Li Mu added: "Secondly, the plot of the sequel to "Kung Fu Panda" needs to be read to me in advance."

Spielberg agreed and said, "Mr. Li, rest assured, the follow-up script must be read to you first, and I must fully refer to your opinion."

"Okay." Li Mu continued: "The third point is that the copyright of the panda bear itself is 100% owned by Muye Technology, so if you want to develop the copyright of "Kung Fu Panda", as long as the image of the panda bear is involved, you must Submit an application to me first, if I agree, then the derivative development Panda Bear will occupy 30% of the copyright, if I don’t agree, you can’t use it.”

"Of course!" Spielberg nodded again and again: "I fully respect your intentions, Mr. Li, and everything is up to you."

Spielberg has also learned to be a man with his tail between his legs. Earlier, he thought that friends belong to friends and business belongs to business, but now he finally understands that when he uses this to get along with Li Mu, Li Mu doesn't care about him at all.

For Li Mu, he couldn't accept this kind of routine that he paid him to eat, but asked him for a cigarette, and he calculated the money with himself. Fortunately, Spielberg corrected it in time, otherwise he would follow up. Hollywood layout, just abandoned him directly.

Anyway, Hollywood is not just a Spielberg, there are more great directors and more movie companies. As long as there is money and resources, the whole of Hollywood can become its own back garden.
