If MGM wants to expand its business volume, in addition to finding and collecting some scripts from the script library, Qiao Feng has to take out several scripts.

Because there are not necessarily many good scripts that can be selected, otherwise there will be so few excellent movies every year.

On this day, Qiao Feng was talking about the script with the director who was found from Hong Kong.

"This is a thriller plot movie with the main content of the murder game. Multiple personality is just the outer cloak of this story. When discussing human nature, you must grasp a certain degree and not be overwhelming the main character." Qiao Feng reminded.

The script he took out this time is called Fatal ID, which tells the story of a dark night, an endless desert wasteland, and a raging storm that completely isolated one of the motels standing in it from the outside world, the roads are blocked, and communication is interrupted.

11 strangers who had no idea about each other before were forced to gather in this crumbling and broken motel.

Then, something terrible happened soon. Actress Caroline Susan was killed accidentally and her head appeared in the washing machine in the laundry room. She also had a room key with No. 10 in her hand. Later, Lu was stabbed to death, with a room key with No. 9 in his hand.

Then the killing began one after another.

Of course, these killings did not happen in the end. Everything happened in a person's consciousness. This person is a schizophrenia patient. He has eleven personalities. The strongest and most evil personality among these eleven personalities is destroying other personalities.

The cause of the story is of course the split personality, but as Qiao Feng said, split personality is just the external appearance of the story, and the core does not begin to explore human nature from this. The final purpose is to make the audience creepy and unable to control their watch.

Sitting opposite Qiao Feng was a man wearing glasses and very rich, but this man seemed to have bad legs and feet because he was sitting in a wheelchair.

He nodded to express his understanding: "Mr. Qiao, this movie is suspense and thrilling. If you want to make it well, the rhythm and atmosphere must be done well. Generally speaking, most of the movies we shoot must have more than 50 scenes, but there is only one script - a hotel located in the desert. To slowly lead the story to a climax through the mysterious deaths of the characters, it will create a terrifying atmosphere. The only scene arrangement in this film cannot be too single, but must have multiple levels. From the environment, it gives the audience a goosebumps that seem like a maze that can never get out and never know where the next threat comes from."

After hearing such a script analysis, Qiao Feng was very satisfied. He deserved to be Yu Rentai, who is known as the King of Ghosts. Not only is he a versatile person, he also has a unique personal style in the field of horror and thriller. It is worth noting that he found him specifically from Hong Kong.

Yu Rentai was also very happy. After all, there were not many directors who could be appreciated by Qiao Feng and even called him to direct a hair style film in Europe and the United States.

And it is also the suspense and thriller theme that he is good at and likes. This can be regarded as the type he debuted and became famous in Hong Kong. From the early years of the Ghost Seven Heroes to the later Ghost Buddha Jumping over the Wall, they are all excellent works in genre films. Moreover, he not only directed it, but also was a screenwriter like Ghost Seven Heroes.

Therefore, he has great experience in how to shoot thriller and suspense and how to take good pictures.

Qiao Feng and Yu Rentai communicated a lot and confirmed that this person really had an idea. Qiao Feng decided that if this fatal ID had a good box office, he would let Yu Rentai film more in the United States.

In Hong Kong, horror movies are a niche market after all, and there is no way for Hong Kong people to be too few, so it is not easy to release such movies overseas.

But it’s different in the United States. The population base of North America is here, and there are many people here who are heavy in taste. This type of film is very marketable. I dare not say that if there are too many, it is still OK to get tens of millions of dollars in the end of the box office.

Don’t look at the box office performance that is not as good as those blockbusters that often have a box office of over 100 million US dollars.

However, in terms of return on investment, this type of film is far better than that of so-called blockbusters.

There is little investment and low risk, this kind of film is very interesting.

Maybe it's a well-liked movie series.

MGM has a very good horror film series called "Ghost Was Resurrected" and has already filmed the third one.

In addition to the fact that the third part is a bit dull, the first part is very eye-catching, and the second part is even more amazing and is called a rare good movie in horror movies.

Qiao Feng planned to hand over the fourth part of the ghost baby's soul back to him after the fatal ID was filmed. In the original time and space, this fourth part was filmed by Yu Rentai, and it was very thoughtful, which made the series, which had a decline in reputation due to the third part, come to life again.

Just when Qiao Feng and Yu Rentai were having aroused chat, MGM's ceo Robert Eiger came. Seeing that Qiao Feng had something to do, Yu Rentai said goodbye and left.

After seeing Yu Rentai off, Qiao Feng asked about Aige's purpose.

"Mr. Joe, can you write a comedy script?" Robert Eiger asked with anticipation.

Qiao Feng was a little surprised. What's wrong? I'm not bringing out the script. I just decided one. Why have you specified the theme?

Seeing Qiao Feng look confused, Robert Eiger quickly explained.

After listening to it, Qiao Feng understood that he was jealous.

During this period, from mid-February to the next March and April, the North American film market is the world of movies.

The anti-witness star is a comedy film produced by Paramount, one of the eight major Hollywood worlds. The promotional distribution is even made by Paramount, the second major global team, and NBC TV.

The screening was launched, and the movie was really funny, so the result was naturally not bad. By mid-April, the box office of the anti-witness multi-star, which was released for two months, had exceeded 100 million US dollars, and there was still one month left before the paintings, and at least another 10 million US dollars could be earned.

This made Robert Eiger very jealous.

Unlike Hong Kong movies, comedy is popular most of the time. Although comedy is not a niche in the North American market, there are not many good box office results.

The success of the anti-witness star made Robert Eiger see the potential of comedy, and he wanted to do it too.

Not only does Hong Kong filmmakers like to follow the trend, but they are actually the same wherever they put it. But unlike Hong Kong who wants to follow the trend, they are all rushing to follow the trend. After all, the film industry is more complete and there are more types of movies. Therefore, if a movie becomes popular, all film companies will evaluate whether this kind of film is a coincidence success, or is the current audience more popular with this type and this subject.

MGM also evaluated it and concluded that the popularity of musical comedy such as the Anti-Witness Multi-Star is just an exception. It is not that this musical comedy theme is currently popular, but that as long as it is a comedy, the audience will accept it better.

Robert Eiger almost scolded him after receiving such feedback because such an evaluation conclusion was completely nonsense.

No matter which type it is, as long as the shot is good and the audience is large, there is a high probability that it will be popular.

Therefore, this conclusion has no reference value.

After all, it finally came to the script.

MGM was on the verge of bankruptcy in the past few years, and there were not many good scripts in the script library, let alone comedy, and there was no good one.

But this is exactly what made Eiger's idea of ​​making a good comedy.

MGM is one of the eight majors. Of course, it must be like a big company and develop comprehensively. Any type of film must be filmed.
Chapter completed!
