680 trilogy?
Thank you for the reward of "Death of the Thief" and "Seven Jiro Ah Lang in One Night"! ――
Seeing the change in the expressions of the two people from joy to depression, Yiwen was afraid that the other party would misunderstand, so he asked: "You only said that you want to make a football-themed movie, but what exactly is it filming?" I think if you have to have Aldridge as the main character, it might be a deviation from the essence of the film, and it will become a biography with a football element. ”
Danny thinks what Evan said makes sense, originally he could have thought of this, but now in the United States, it is inevitable to consider the market effect, if Aldridge can play in person, as long as it is a movie that has anything to do with football, the box office is absolutely guaranteed.
He is now writing and directing the American drama csI series in the United States, and in such a working environment, he has developed this kind of thinking.
American dramas are market-oriented, and the market response is good, so continue to write and continue to film, the market response is cold, no matter if your story has an end or not, cut it in half!
He had never expected to sit down with Aldrich for a deep conversation, but suddenly his fantasy became a reality, and he was a little unprepared.
"Alas, to be honest, I wanted to make a football-themed film, but in fact I didn't even have a script, there were a lot of ideas, but there was nothing practical, Aldrich, I'm so sorry, I, I"
Danny couldn't go on anymore, saying that success is reserved for those who are prepared, and he was suddenly able to meet Aldrich today without any preparation, which made him very self-remorseful.
Aldrich smiled: "It's okay, I'm not good at anything else, but if you want to make a football-themed film, I think I can come up with ideas." ”
Jerry interjected at this time: "But Danny said that it is difficult to make an all-round football movie, and to present the real feeling to the audience, then the shooting venue, the actors." Even when it comes to the game footage, it may be necessary to negotiate with one club at a time, and there is a lot of resistance. ”
That's where Danny thinks the difficulty lies.
Do you want to play a football video? The game requires a real team, the less famous ones don't pay for the audience, whether the famous clubs agree, plus the fan culture. The real sense of the game, even if you borrow the game video, there are still copyright issues in the film and television screens.
Aldrich was stunned, he really didn't expect that making football movies would be so troublesome.
Evan chuckled: "You don't need to dwell on this, just go directly to FIFA and ask FIFA to help dredge up the relationship." This kind of thing, FIFa will be happy to help. ”
Jerry looked at Danny, confused.
According to Danny, FIFa should also be conservative.
Although Danny is British and loves football, he has not yet figured out the connection.
Aldrich's eyes lit up and he said, "That's right. You go straight to FIFa and they will definitely help and will be very welcoming. ”
Jerry asked blankly, "Why?" ”
"Because they don't have to spend a penny to get football promoted internationally, and the more popular the sport is around the world, the more profitable they are."
"Isn't FIFA a non-profit organization?"
"Huh? That was a lie when FIFA was founded a hundred years ago. ”
After Aldrich finished speaking, he said something in his heart: Yankee. I really don't know about football.
What kind of organization is FIFa?
To this day, no one can tell.
Anyway, FIFa is very profitable, in addition to sponsor support, they just sell the TV rights of the World Cup, and the profits they earn in the process of organizing the World Cup before and after are astronomical.
Many countries are vying to host the World Cup, but for the host country. This is an image project that costs people and money, but FIFa is like a circle of money, holding a World Cup is a fortune, ten years later. FIFa's available funds will exceed two billion, and the countries hosting the World Cup, the money thrown into it will only increase the deficit of the finances, probably only Germany "officially" held an affordable World Cup, but privately for the benefit of canvassing, in fact, it is also astronomical, before and after, South Korea and Japan, South Africa, Brazil, the financial reports of the World Cup project input and output are not dared to be announced.
And there are many channels for FIFa to make money, just the logo in the cg screen of various football games, isn't the FIFa logo very common?
So, the more popular football is, the more people like it, the more money FIFa will make.
Hollywood wants to make football-themed films, and FIFa definitely welcomes them.
After Danny and Jerry learned about FIFa's position, their faces looked much better, and things were not as difficult as they thought.
Evan held his chin and smiled, "Danny, you haven't told me what kind of football video you want to make, is it player-oriented, or something else?" I think the movie should be shocking, and it must be realistic in terms of course, what do you think of Millwall Club? ”
As soon as her voice fell, she felt an extra hand on her thigh, from the man beside him.
Aldrich snickered in his heart, and couldn't help but reach out and touch Evan's round and elastic thighs, whether it was the person next to the pillow, he didn't need to look at him, and immediately understood how to guide the topic.
If he hadn't made a Millwall-related movie, Aldrich wouldn't have been in a café on this big night.
Danny, who was born in Luton, was the king of England in the years when he was growing up, Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal, but now, it is naturally Millwall who sits on the throne.
He pondered for a moment and said: "Millwall is indeed a rich material, once England's notorious rogue team, in just a few years to complete the domination from England to the whole of Europe, in fact, just to understand Millwall's achievements over the years, and compare the previous history, this is enough shocking. ”
Evan continued: "Yes, since you want to shoot, shoot the best team, shoot the team that attracts the most attention, and Millwall itself has a historical context of first falling and then rising, so you can use the dark ages as the starting point of the story, right? ”
Aldridge said: "Danny, you see, the current Millwall fans, the overall plain is not bad, the team has a top stadium, a top lineup, and a brilliant record. But if you want to compare the old days, I can tell you and my personal experience, almost fifteen years ago or so, Millwall fans were mostly fighting in the stands just to stir up trouble, the players on the pitch were savage, losing was commonplace, and outside of playing football was drunken-prostitution and prostitution gambling. It's true, and the dilapidated and bleak sight of our old little stadium, it's fair to say that Millwall's history is full of negativity, negativity. It can be used as the beginning of your film, and lay the foundation for the "gaochao" of the film in the future. From the trough to the peak, from failure to success, the connotation of the film can be to actively promote positive universal values. ”
Danny's interest in hearing Aldridge say this became high, in fact, he only had a general understanding of Millwall's past and was penniless. East London is also rumored to be the cradle of football hooligans, and the off-the-field battles between Millwall and West Ham United are the main theme, these are all impressions, a relatively hazy concept, after listening to Aldrich's words, this concept is concretized, visualized, and the scene of the dark history of the past comes to mind in my mind.
"Definitely. Millwall is indeed a very good subject. ”
Danny said that it is by no means perfunctory, because Millwall's own history can be directly transplanted as the plot of the movie, as for how to shoot a shocking effect, with the effect of a Hollywood blockbuster, it depends on the director's level, especially his understanding of football.
"Before '96. Millwall have been in existence for 11o years without a single title, and when they won their first league title in '97, it was the beginning of a new era. The end of the last old era, but in this uncrowned era, maybe 12o minutes of movies are not enough. ”
As soon as Ivan finished speaking, Aldridge said: "From 97 years to today, Millwall has won 3 Champions Leagues, this is a glorious era, and the story of these four years may not be told in 12o minutes." ”
"Then you can make it into a trilogy, don't you always like to watch the "Godfather" trilogy at home? The Lord of the Rings, which will be released next month, didn't he also say that he was going to shoot a trilogy? The Deadman, The Past, Marseille, The Return, Europe, Conscience, Loneliness, Betrayal, Life, Blue, White and Red, Heaven, Earth and Man, Man, Greece's Modern History, Many, Many Classic Trilogy Films, Football Films, If a Trilogy Series is made, I think it will definitely become a classic. ”
"Well, it's okay, past, present, future, trilogy."
"That's right"
Aldridge sang and harmonized with Evan and confused Danny.
Jerry now understands that the reason why Aldrich was so enthusiastic from the first contact was that he had an absolute position and selfishness.
He had to warn Danny so that he wouldn't be fooled.
"Ahem, Aldrich, your construction is very good, but we don't want to make a documentary, the movie needs the protagonist, the plot needs to drive the plot, you are a good choice, with your perspective, with your struggle to witness Millwall's journey, but you said you are not interested."
Aldridge shrugged and said: "As long as the movie has a general context, the protagonist is easy to find, you can make up a player, you can use the perspective of fans, Danny is British, he must understand, England's football culture, fans are a group that must not be ignored, you want to make the plot full of tension, players, fans, and even a club employee who has managed the stadium turf for 20 years can become a supporting role, and I am not interested in making a movie, but if you really want to shoot Millwall, the role of the manager, You can find an actor to play me. ”
Jerry and Danny looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and Danny said: "Aldrich, because you are so popular, I really can't think of anyone to play you without being scolded by the audience, you have to be clear, your role can't be played by a non-British actor first." ”
Aldrich froze.
When you think about it, it makes sense.
According to his popularity as a British national idol, if his role is played by a foreigner, the British audience will not buy it first.
This time the scope of candidates was narrowed down to one-third of an acre of land in the UK, and with age, a batch of old drama bones were brushed.
Aldrich thought for a moment and said, "How is Daniel Craig?" ”
He is talking about the future successor of OO7, who was named the most promising male movie star in Europe just last year.
Danny smiled bitterly and said, "He's 33 years old, and his face looks like he's over 3o years old, how can he play the role of 18-year-old you?" ”
Aldrich is really a bit difficult now, the older face is not tender enough, and the young are not famous and their acting skills are not guaranteed.
Evan turned his face away, laughing silently.
Aldrich suddenly thought of someone and said, "There's someone I think is a good fit." ”
