Chapter 1117: The project is very lively

"Firefly's new drama "Game of Thrones" has been approved. It is reported that this project is adapted from George Martin's fantasy masterpiece "A Song of Ice and Fire". The scenery is original.”

"Surprise! According to the budget of "Game of Thrones", the budget of the fantasy series has reached an astonishing 100 million US dollars, and the production cost of a single season has broken a new high in the industry."

"Firefly is unwilling to be lonely, and its goal is to target fantasy epics.

In recent years, Firefly's TV department has produced high-quality dramas such as "Prison Break", "The Walking Dead", "Stranger Things", "Breaking Bad", but without exception, the scenes are all focused on relatively small spaces, so , It is really exciting to see whether this attempt at spatial narrative can succeed and change the previous audio-visual language. "

"Firefly sincerely invites talents in the industry and has decided to make the casting part public."

"Do you want to choose the character in your mind? For details, please pay attention to the entertainment section of Yahoo News or the "Game of Thrones" page established by IMDB."

"There has been news of the adaptation for a long time. The adaptation rights of "A Song of Ice and Fire", which fans have been waiting for for a long time, fall to Firefly. It is a budget of 100 million, past word of mouth, or industry production strength. What is the reason for this? Called a participant."

With the intentional promotion of propagandists, the news spread quickly and spread at an extremely fast speed.

The main reason is that "A Song of Ice and Fire" has become popular in Western fantasy circles. There are always so many gossips about putting it on the screen every month. Countless manufacturers and investors return in front of Mr. George. The author My attitude is very firm, this is the first point;

Second, the media was also frightened, which was similar to when HBO suddenly announced that it would cooperate with Spielberg to produce a World War II drama in order to increase the dependence of paying groups, and the budget was still green light all the way, which gave everyone a great shock;

Third, the twists and turns of the subject matter itself sparked discussions. In the face of the fast-spreading traffic, it doesn't matter, let alone the editor-in-chief of Yahoo Entertainment, who thought it was very hyped, and took the initiative to mention it.

Not to mention, if a budget of 100 million yuan is put into the field of TV dramas, it is already a high-priced drama. This is a gimmick, not to mention that it is a fantasy theme.

After all, this circle is relatively small and does not attract little girls. Usually it seems to be inconspicuous, and they are all staying in the corresponding territory, but once these people burst into energy, they are extremely fanatical. In fact, when "Game of Thrones" was able to HBO broke the circle, and the secondary creation of book fans from all over the world played a great role. The producers didn't give money. They spontaneously produced various maps, used editing software to create corresponding content, or introduced characters and forces, which seemed extremely patient and energetic.

why? I don't know, maybe the relative closeness is relatively close, and it is more effective to unite.

Passers-by are confused, and the Mary Sue girl is also confused. Is it a drama? As for it, it's like a long vacation.

In a word, it is just a project information, except for disclosing a little approximate range of funds, on the Internet: user platforms based on Twitter, Facebook and chat rooms, fans of "A Song of Ice and Fire" are called active, It can be called a rush to tell each other, and the whole world celebrates.

"I only have one thought now, Firefly, shoot it well."

"Mr. George is finally willing to start the adaptation, but I don't know when he will finish writing the rest of the story."

"Nothing else, no matter if it's broadcast next year or the year after, as long as it doesn't cross the line, I'll follow up on this drama."

"Woooooo, I actually saw the news of the filming of "A Song of Ice and Fire" in my lifetime, and I may also see its release. I want to cry."

"I want to cry too. It's been 15 years, and half of the content next door has been filmed. Technically, it's obviously not a problem, but it's still so much slower. However, there are advantages to being careful. At least this time, I think Mr. George chose to make it. Fang is very reliable. Think about it, people even dare to shoot "Avatar", and "Game of Thrones" is suddenly not that difficult."

"Don't say it, Lyman Last will be my favorite director, no one!!!"

"..."

Happy and excited, and some people are worried about not being able to make that kind of drama, but in any case, book fans first have a consensus:

After filming, look at it first, and then curse it to death if it doesn't look good.

As for looking good? Blow to death.

A similar phenomenon is a frequent visitor to the original IP adaptation content, whether it is more enthusiastic or relatively enthusiastic.

To use a word in the industry: users who have established a certain impression from books and comics are far more sensitive to film and television content than original works, especially in spontaneous enthusiasm, consumption, and content filters.

These are all very understandable.

And once the content filter is broken, isn't it a senior hacker?

There is a fact in the idol circle: the blackening of fans is more than a thousand times more damaging to the image of idols than passers-by, because passers-by will not consume for idols, but the fans who consume are blackened, not only in terms of money Don't invest.

This kind of investment expectation mixed with the difference in filters can easily become an early capital accumulation.

From this point of view, the studios’ enthusiasm for the adaptation of the original IP is just on the right side. It’s just that they occasionally have to swallow the consequences of unsatisfactory quality, but in more cases, there have been Adaptation projects accumulated in the market are easier to market, easier to publicize, and more likely to achieve more stable success.

At the end of this April, when "Furious 5" and "Thor 2" dominated the schedule, the spread of "Game of Thrones" on the public opinion side also quickly attracted the attention of insiders.

Some people are watching, some are disdainful, some people shake their heads and still feel that the risk is too high, but more, they still want to join in and get a piece of the pie.

The most positive ones are the big and small brokerage companies.

With such a large project, there are many roles and many behind-the-scenes positions, which are always opportunities.

CAA knew about it for a long time, but also understood that it was impossible for Laiman to let their family do it all. They just kept pushing all kinds of resumes. After other brokerage platforms responded, there were more actions of delivery and inquiries.

Want good seedlings or not? Want to have experience behind the scenes?

Compared with the enthusiasm of these intermediaries, the broadcasting platforms are very calm.

No play.

************

At the same time, the liveliness outside did not affect Amber Video's settlement in Burbank's industrial park not far from Firefly.

After the technical team of FOtv, who also decided to stay, came here with inexplicable emotions, a little negativity was quickly dispelled.

It may be the opening of a new chapter, or it may be Perlman's words.

He originally came to chat with Black, Ron and other high-level executives about the existing copyrights in the film library, but he was keenly aware that this temporarily formed team seemed to lack a little cohesion, and quickly pulled those employees who were entering the post immediately. Both the original ones and the industry people Ron himself knew or recruited sat in the room.

"We've all changed to a new environment, this place is just getting started, and everything is starting from scratch," Perlman is not tall, but his tone is high-pitched, like a child getting a fresh toy, his excitement is contagious, "I also believe that those of us here will be part of changing the film and television content industry in the future, even leading. The Internet changes everything, so why aren't we the changers?"

Internet practitioners all have one thing in common, they are more or less eager to do something, so they are very useful for similar words. This is not a pie, but a real expectation.

Just like the technical staff of FOtv, if they hadn't had confidence in online video, who would have invested in this line so early.

"Looking at it now, the difficulty is still not small Perlman continued, "Users have not abandoned the traditional TV terminal, and people are not so happy to accept the charge for content. And can not guarantee a good profit, this line is easy to die, and the cost will be overwhelming. "

The staff below nodded silently. Isn't FOtv so bad?

"But that was in the past, and it's different now. There are many things that are different. For example, Firefly is absolutely optimistic about the streaming media business and absolutely supports it, and we also have our own content side. Those TV dramas and movies are not seen by anyone here. must."

"Haha." The crowd cheered. They do watch Firefly.

"So, we have great advantages, and Amber Video has great advantages. This industry is not prosperous for the time being, but so what? Everyone can see the upper limit of its development. This generation, the next generation, all viewers, It can be cultivated. And we have our own content, content that others can’t buy with money.”

"President Perlman is right." Blake, the content director, followed the topic: "In the future, all the movies and TV series of the Marvel series will be broadcast on Amber Video. In July this year, "Thor 2" will be available. What we have to do is to improve the website and optimize the playback conditions." This is another reassurance, and fans of the Marvel series can perceive it even if they don't know much about it.

"...So, I am very confident that Amber will have a bright future. Everyone, let's encourage each other."
