Chapter 454 358 What? ! Pokémon and The Matrix? !

Chapter 454 358. What? ! Pokémon Linked The Matrix? !

Angelina Jolie was in a very low mood after leaving the hotel.

She couldn't help but wrap her windbreaker tightly around her body and strode down the street, even the wind became cold.

Just like her life, Angelina Jolie only felt that the sky was extremely dark and she didn't know where the future would lead.

But at this moment, a figure caught up with her from behind.

"Miss Julie!"

She turned around blankly and stared for a moment, seeming to have some impression.

This person seems to be a staff member of Yuehe who was in the hotel before.

"Miss Julie," the visitor panted, holding her knees and laughing, "Congratulations, you passed the interview. There is no need to audition. The producer asked me to call you back. If you are interested, you can sign a contract with us. Contracted."

"What?!"

Angelina Jolie tilted her head, looking shocked.

The whole person was completely confused.

I didn't expect the turnaround to come so quickly.

However, no matter how I looked at it before, neither the producer nor the director seemed to want her.

After returning to the hotel, he went to Hitotsubashi Fumie's room, and the producer directly pushed several drafted contracts in front of her.

"The contract is in triplicate and because we plan to shoot the Matrix trilogy, in order to maintain the audience's unified understanding, a long-term contract must be signed.

In other words, he signed three film contracts in one go.

We will give you 1 million US dollars for the first film, and for each subsequent film we will give you an additional 1 million US dollars.

It's up to you. If you want to refuse, it's still too late. "

reject? !

It’s not too late to be happy.

Angelina Jolie herself was a little overjoyed, "Huh? Didn't you decide not to want me before? Why did you choose me in the end?"

Hitotsubashi Fumie smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't say I didn't want you, I just asked you to go back and wait for the news. Now that we have thought about it for a long time, we still feel that you are more suitable for the candidate we have in mind."

Of course, this is just a scene talk. Under normal circumstances, both the director and the actor are well aware of it during the interview and do not show great interest in you. They even reveal a bit of impatience from time to time in their micro-expressions. , in most cases it means you are out of luck.

In fact, Hitotsubashi Fumie is also suffering from the pain of the baby. I don’t want you, but the boss wants you. What can I do?

I'm just a part-time worker.

Besides, Angelina Jolie's previous reputation aside, her acting skills and appearance are actually quite suitable for the heroine.

It is actually correct to say that she was chosen based on the heroine in her mind.

"So do you want to sign it or not?" Fumie Hitotsubashi crossed his hands and frowned.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Angelina Jolie no longer had any questions, she lowered her head and signed several documents.

Thus,

After finalizing the heroine, all the roles of the entire crew have been decided.

As for Angelina Jolie, on the one hand, her previous reputation was not very good. Even if she wants to be a prodigal girl now, her net worth cannot rise. On the other hand, in Hollywood, don’t look at the free rice grains, but Well, actresses get less money than men, much less.

The same protagonist, Keanu Reeves, can get a salary of 6 million, but for Angelina Jolie, she can only get about 1 million. This is an indisputable fact.

Yuehe signed a long-term contract with Angelina Jolie for three movies in one go.

Qing Zhiyuan and Angelina Jolie both breathed a sigh of relief.

…

After returning to Neon, Hitotsubashi Fumie angrily found Qing Zhiyuan, "I don't quite understand why such a list was finally decided. Forget about Keanu Reeves, even the heroine has to use it. Such a strange actress?"

"Stable, extremely stable!" Qing Zhiyuan said with a smile, "I tell you, this combination is simply amazing."

I feel a little excited just thinking about it.

What kind of dream combination is this? In his previous life, Qing Zhiyuan never dared to imagine that he would have such an opportunity in his life, where he could bring together several big names.

Director Nolan, hero Keanu Reeves, heroine Angelina Jolie, script The Matrix...

This lineup couldn't be more luxurious, and the salary is much cheaper than Qing Zhiyuan imagined. The total salary of all actors and director is less than 50 million US dollars.

This means that they have a more sufficient budget and invest more money in the filming of the movie, and the post-production effects will definitely be more explosive.

Such a dream combination and such a small cost will make you laugh out of your dreams just thinking about it.

ha? !

Hitotsubashi Fumi looked at this guy with big blue eyes and felt that Qing Zhiyuan was really crazy.

No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong with this combination, okay?

"Don't worry too much, you will know after the movie is shot."

This guy Qing Zhiyuan...

Where did his blind confidence come from?

Hitotsubashi Fumie frowned, puzzled.

But the matter has come to this point, and there is no point in arguing anymore. All Hitotsubashi Fumie can do is to do his best to assist and work hard to make the broken ship of the Matrix set sail and not really be drowned in the huge waves. good.

To be honest, up to now, Qing Zhiyuan and Nolan are very confident, but Ichihashi Fumi has no confidence at all.

She just feels like the sky is falling.

…

After this combination, the whole Hollywood is laughing like crazy.

"Oh my god, are you serious about this lineup?

A Japanese film company that has never made a movie in Hollywood,

A producer who has only worked as a production assistant before and has no experience in independent blockbuster production,

Plus a completely new director who is not even famous at all,

Finally, a terrible actress...

I can't believe that this is a big movie that costs 150 million US dollars to shoot."

"Hahaha, it's true. All the names are unheard of. Except for Keanu Reeves, the other characters seem to be problematic.

The most important thing is to choose a newcomer like Nolan Director, I really can't understand it.

There is something wrong with the top management of Yuehe Company. "

"It should be. I heard that the two bosses of Yuehe have never made a movie before. They may not be familiar with Hollywood and have no common sense. That's why they made such an incredible selection decision.

Originally, I saw Director Cameron praising how well the script was written and how great the storyboard animation produced by Yuehe Company was.

Now it seems that it should be just a coincidence.

I don't know who this broken company asked to produce the script. At present, it is estimated that only the script can be presented. "

"If nothing unexpected happens, this is probably the largest investment in the history of movies. A terrible movie."

"It's a definite terrible movie. At least the probability of it being a terrible movie is very high. Sometimes it's not just a good script that can make it a success. Creating a script is one thing, and actually filming it is another.

There are too many examples like this.

With the level of the Yuehe production team, the director and actors they selected are obviously not capable of handling such a sci-fi blockbuster. In the end, it is likely that they will lose all their money."

"The movie is terrible, it's really a human problem, but what I want to say more is that it was the top management of Yuehe who caused the disaster of The Matrix this time.

It's too irrational. This casting lineup is just a mess.

Even if the right one is chosen Not everyone can do it well, not to mention that they chose such a bunch of strange people to make the movie.

I don't think much of this movie anymore. ”

"Yuehe is really a model of a fool with a lot of money."

"I'm different from you. I don't know what the final effect will be, but I'm looking forward to it. I really want to see how bad The Matrix will be when it's made."

Cameron was heartbroken and felt that Yuehe was completely ruining the script. The Matrix is ​​obviously a very good script. From the content point of view, as long as it is well filmed, it can even win awards. The box office is not a problem at all, and it can even leave a strong mark in the entire film history.

However, a good hand of cards was played badly. There must be something wrong with the senior management of Yuehe Company. This is completely not treating their own money as money, and not treating good scripts as scripts. This behavior is completely a blasphemy against movies.

Waste!

Cameron said that as long as the senior management of Yuehe is still controlled by people like Qing Zhiyuan who don't understand movies, then this company will never be able to produce a truly high-quality movie.

Quentin had a similar expression, and he felt really bad.

If he hadn't read Yuehe's script beforehand, and hadn't seen such imaginative and creative animation storyboards, he wouldn't have felt so bad.

It's because you saw something particularly beautiful, and now Yuehe is going to personally destroy the work that Quentin thought was as pure and beautiful as the moon. There's probably nothing worse than this.

As expected, tragedy is to tear up beautiful things for people to see.

Quentin was upset. If he could do it again, he would rather not have seen the script of The Matrix.

The public opinion outside was overwhelming, and Keanu Reeves was under a lot of pressure. His agent called Ichihashi Fumi many times to communicate why he chose Angelina Jolie in the end. He knew that the film might be affected by her, but it was really irresponsible to do so.

After several times of comfort, Keanu Reeves calmed down a little.

In fact, it was not because of how nice Ichihashi Fumi's words were, but mainly because the long-term contract was signed, and the penalty for breach of contract was too high. Keanu Reeves could not afford the risk of breach of contract at all.

However, after he saw the rumors outside, he regretted it.

If he had known who the heroine was earlier, he would never have signed a contract with Yuehe.

…

Qing Zhiyuan was like a person who had nothing to do, not worried about the filming of The Matrix at all.

Instead, he pulled the focus of work back to Pokeni.

In the morning, Qing Zhiyuan asked Nasu Kinoko and Takeuchi Takashi to his office to discuss the development plan for the future sequel of Fate in detail.

"Now that Fate has been released and the sales performance is good, you should have more confidence in making a good game, right?"

"No, no." Takeuchi Takashi shook his head, "It's mainly because the president taught well, otherwise with our own abilities, we would probably be scolded to death by the players."

Judging from the results, Qing Zhiyuan's changes to Sakura Line and the [Non-Existent Reality] easter egg produced have achieved extraordinary response, successfully making fate a game that can leave deep memories in the minds of players. A work that feels both poignant and beautiful at the same time.

If they were on their own, they would definitely not be able to accomplish this.

Until now, Nasu Mushroom still has no real sense of success.

He originally just did what he wanted to do with the encouragement of the president and Takeuchi.

But I never thought that the words I wrote would be liked by so many players...

This can't help but give people an unreal feeling like falling into a dream, like living in a fairy tale.

Thank you players for liking my writing. Those fantasies have become reality...

This is probably the feeling.

"Then what I think next is that you can also include the related games that you have planned before into the development plan." Qing Zhiyuan said, "Sky Realm and Magic Night.

However, what I hope more is to make a sequel to Fate.

After all, the game has become a huge success, and players are definitely looking forward to future works. "

"Hmm, then I'll go back and think about it carefully." Nasu Mushroom said.

"I think the Fourth Holy Grail War is good. Have you ever thought about writing the complete story of Emiya Kiritsugu?" Qing Zhiyuan said thoughtfully, "If necessary, I can ask Wada to come over and help."

"Huh? Really?!"

Nasu Mushroom's eyes lit up, "Wada is actually very creative, and we get along well with each other. If he can come over and create together, I am very confident that I can write a good script."

"Okay, then it's settled."

Qing Zhiyuan laughed.

In the previous life, it was Lao Xu who wrote Fate Zero. Now that the two of them are working together again, it shouldn't be much different.

In fact, based on the information Nasu Mushroom revealed in FSN, Emiya Kiritsugu’s story has basically been finalized.

The final outcome of the Holy Grail War is a very clear fact, otherwise there would be no Emiya and subsequent stories.

So the only thing that can be covered is the story before Emiya Kiritsugu.

Whether it can be organized well to bring a different experience to players, and at the same time depict the arcs of the heroes of Emiya Kiritsugu's contemporaries, this is what FZ has to do.

It is not easy to perform within the established framework and dance while wearing shackles.

…

After discussing with them, Qing Zhiyuan called Takeuchi Lisa over when he asked Takeuchi to go out.

About 5 minutes later, Lisa Asano walked into the president's office holding a pile of documents.

It seems that she already knew that the president was looking for her, and Lisa Asano was well prepared.

"As for the future development plan of Pokémon, this is what we have arranged here."

Lisa Asano gave a report:

First of all, with the two Pokémon World games now coming to an end, Myth of the Sun and Dark Side of the Moon have also been successful.

Now Lisa Asano has also added new projects and continues to work on the sequel to 3D World.

In the plan, the first game is "Pokémon 3D World: Gem Kingdom", which mainly tells the story of going to the magical world and starting new magical adventures through various gems.

In the game, different gem props will be added, which will also make the magic element more intense.

On the theme, there will be Magician Pokémon, Knight Pokémon, Archer Pokémon, Demon King Pokémon, etc. added.

After this game, the next theme is "Pokémon 3D World: Machinarium." Whether it's the company's current games or the movie projects it's cooperating with, many of them are about the omnic crisis in the future.

And as the Internet and computers become more and more popular, from the beginning only a few people owned them, but now they have gradually entered the homes of ordinary people and become more and more popular. In fact, people are quite interested in the topics of robots and artificial intelligence. of.

Against the background of this era, Lisa Asano and her production team came up with the idea of ​​making a Pokémon World game with [mechanics] as the main body.

If you think about going to a mechanized world, where Pokémon are all mechanical Pokémon, it will definitely trigger heated discussions, and the worldview will also be hugely different from existing themes.

Moreover, mechanical elements can greatly enrich the gameplay of the game world, so Lisa Asano thinks this theme is quite good.

"In this way, after the two games are completed, we can also launch the follow-up Pokémon Battle sequel. We have already thought of the name, and it will be called "Pokémon Magic/Machine"."

Bang bang bang...

"Bravo."

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but applaud her.

This is the kind of producer I want.

Lisa Asano has done quite well in being able to independently and spontaneously promote the development of new games instead of always letting her boss think about future plans.

"It's pretty good. Just develop it according to your ideas."

Qing Zhiyuan thought to himself that maybe in time, Pokémon Machine could catch up with The Matrix.

It doesn't matter if the Matrix games lag a little, as long as Omnic Crisis remains a topic of conversation.

Thinking of this, Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but laugh.

It's interesting to think about it. One is The Matrix and the other is Pokémon. They can't be connected at all. They have nothing to do with each other.

I didn't expect that Lisa Asano would bring it to life.

What kind of weird connection is this?

...

"Well, in that case," Qing Zhiyuan laughed, "why not just implant some Matrix Easter eggs in the mechanical Pokémon, and I will also let Yuehe add Pokémon elements to the movie.

For example, Pokémon wear the black clothes of the Matrix and can use guns and so on.

Then implant Pokémon in The Matrix and turn it into Easter eggs, such as meeting a person holding a Pikachu doll on the road.

Or there are some background boards of passers-by playing Pikachu games, etc., as an advertisement implant, which does not affect the plot and can leave an impression on the audience."

"Huh?"

Lisa Asano was stunned.

Although she still doesn't know what The Matrix is ​​and what the script is about, she can deeply feel from the president's face that it must be a good movie.

"Okay, President." Lisa Asano held the project plan and smiled lightly.

The rest didn't matter, whether there was information or not, the most important thing was that she believed in the president wholeheartedly.

As long as the president approved of something, it would not be too bad.
