Chapter 90
The review process is not complicated, especially for a big director like Steve Kevin.
For the review department, what they need to consider is not the success or failure of the box office after the film is completed, but the feasibility of the plan.
For example, whether the cost of the actors of the specified roles and the cost of other crew members conform to the Hollywood 3 to 7 ratio, whether there are problems in the process, and so on.
After a two-hour process review.
The person in charge of the audit department picked up the plan and said with a certain look:
"It's a workable proposal and I haven't seen any issues."
As an old Fox employee for many years, his words are naturally very credible.
Since there is no problem with the plan, the next thing to do is to sign the contract.
The Fox executives, who had been unable to bear it for a long time, returned to the reception room.
Davis took the initiative to say:
"Director Kevin, there is no problem with the plan, and the contract can be signed at any time."
"I just don't know this movie. When does Director Kevin plan to start shooting?"
"Early October."
The executives glanced at each other, and while they wished Steve Kevin started work tomorrow, early October wasn't too long.
Just over a month away.
Counting the effort to convene the crew and interview the actors, in fact, this speed is already very fast.
After reaching a consensus, Kevin left Fox directly.
The specific contract was not signed with him, but the connection between Chenxi Films and Fox, and Kevin signed a third-party employment contract.
The investment funds of Chenxi Film will go to his own account in the form of salary.
The reason for this process is simple, it's all about paying less tax.
The tax on salary and remuneration can be much less than the tax paid in the name of the company.
....
After calling Dawson and asking them to come to Fox to discuss a specific contract.
Kevin came to Marvel.
As soon as I entered the editorial office, I saw Kevin Feige and Mr. Stan Lee arguing about work.
"Father, I think you are too partial to Spider-Man."
Kevin Feige was out of breath.
"No, Spider-Man, that's how powerful it is."
Although the old man Stan Lee said so, everyone could see that he was stubborn.
The other editors and manga writers looked on as they watched the show.
Obviously, this is not the first time this has happened in the company.
However, many of these people have worked in Marvel for more than ten or twenty years, and the relationship with Stan Lee naturally goes without saying.
In their opinion, between Stan Lee and Kevin Feige, there is a bit of grandfather teasing grandson.
Faced with this scene, they all laughed happily.
Seeing Kevin coming, Feige ran over to complain.
"Brother Kevin, look at Mr. Stan Lee, if you do this, the Marvel Universe will become the Spider-Man Universe, how can this work..."
Kevin interrupted his speech, making his eyes and stern face.
"Feige, can't you let Mr. Stan Lee spend less time?"
Fitch was speechless for a moment, but he could only follow Kevin's words and go down the hill.
"I know, I'll pay attention later."
Mr. Stan Lee was instantly happy and not stubborn.
Come and apologize:
"Feige is right, I am too partial to Batman, in fact I think his proposal is very good."
"According to his proposal, the first phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has initially come out."
"Oh?"
Kevin suddenly came to his senses.
He hadn't expected it to be so fast.
I didn't expect Kevin Feige and Stan Lee to tinker with the first phase of the movie universe so quickly.
"Take me to see."
Stan Lee and Kevin Feige, which led Kevin to their offices.
This office is the exclusive office of the two of them. Except for a few old employees, outsiders are absolutely forbidden to enter.
There is a 24-hour surveillance inside.
Although the copyright is in hand, in theory, Kevin is no longer afraid of other people's troubles.
However, cautious thoughts have been affecting him.
It's not yet time for the Marvel Universe's plans to debut.
The three came to the office.
In addition to two computers, it is a pile of filing cabinets, which contains various comic materials from Marvel over the years.
Some are arranged by age, and some are arranged by role.
The work of the two of them is to create a suitable movie universe from these materials as a whole.
Kevin Feige pointed to a pile of information on the desktop and said:
"Brother Kevin, this is the result of our work, but it has not been sorted out, it is only the first draft for the time being."
"After discussion with Mr. Stan Lee, the characters we decided to move into the movie universe are all versions of characters that are not so powerful in various versions. Of course, they are more in line with mainstream aesthetics and values."
"For example, the role of the Hulk includes the four-armed Hulk, the Sword Saint Hulk, and the most powerful version of Lu Shang, and the version we chose is the most common version. The level of force destroying the city."
Kevin nodded.
This is what he said in advance.
Kevin Feige arranged this very well.
Too powerful characters appearing in the movie universe will only destroy the atmosphere of the entire movie universe.
Letting those weak superheroes desperately protect the earth seems like a joke to the audience.
This is most vividly reflected in the taillight director's version of Justice League.
A superman can press down on the enemy, and the desperate efforts of others are not ridiculous.
And this, Zack Snyder's version of Justice League handles it well.
Every character in the Justice League plays a vital role, Cyborg is responsible for separating the mother box, and Superman is responsible for stopping Steppenwolf.
Aquaman, Batman, and Wonder Woman also played their part.
In the end, when all else fails, there's The Flash to turn things around.
The speed force reverses time and breaks the impasse.
I have to say that at that time, after watching Zack Snyder's version of Justice League, Kevin had to complain that the DC universe was not wronged.
If according to Zack Snyder's ideas, it can really save the DC universe.
Unfortunately, Warnersau keeps operating.
Let the DC Universe, at least in 2021, see no hope.
And now, Kevin has drawn Zach Snyder...
After all, he had dug so many holes for Warner before he knew it.
Thoughts drifted by, Kevin came back to his senses and praised.
"well done."
"What is the main line of the first stage?"
The original Marvel Cinematic Universe, in Kevin's opinion, was still too anxious.
In the first stage, it was directly moved to Thanos, the overlord of the universe.
This made it difficult to follow up.
Kevin's current setting is to stretch the original Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Chapter 140 The Three Phases of the Marvel Universe and the Vision of New Heroes
Thanos is still the last big boss.
But his demise must no longer be a joke like the original.
The most outrageous thing is that in the previous setting, everyone knows that the six Infinity Stones are not available to ordinary people.
No matter how powerful Iron Man Tony Stark is, it is theoretically impossible for him to use the Infinity Stones.
Not to mention snapping fingers.
This is somewhat contradictory.
Of course, this plot can actually be patched.
In one version, Tony Stark was a Supreme Mage.
It is also possible to arrange a period of time in the middle for Tony Stark to learn magic.
Otherwise, in the real cosmic war, pure technology is far from enough to match the cosmic overlord.
Of course, that's all for the latter.
If according to Kevin's settings, then the emergence of Thanos is the third stage.
And now it's only the first stage.
What needs to be done is to make all the main heroes appear in the first stage.
Kevin Feige talks about his plans.
"In the first stage, the main line I designed was the advent of the era of superheroes, using more than ten movies to show no less than fifty superheroes."
"Of course, the most important of them are about a dozen people as the main force, and the others will only be displayed in the corners of the war."
"At the same time, a number of comics and TV series are used as auxiliary to help structure the worldview of the Marvel Cinematic Universe."
"Good job, and the special settings I said for the earth, have they been arranged?"
The three-stage concept, Kevin and the two of them have communicated in advance.
In the first stage, superheroes appear, and then in their respective films it may be just a shot, it may be a segment.
appear in other films.
But through these clips, Marvel wants to let people know that these characters are actually in a worldview.
While Spider-Man fights crime in New York, Supreme Mage roams the multiverse against demons, and Captain Marvel acts as a law enforcer in the universe to maintain peace.
The construction of these many roles is the first stage of a complete.
The second stage is simple.
The universe overlord Thanos, in order to maintain the balance of the universe, decided to use the power of six Infinity Stones to destroy half of life.
To this end, he sent his men to collect gems throughout the universe.
The heroes confronted the subordinates of Thanos, and at the same time, they expressed the power of the universe overlord through the mouths of the Supreme Mage and Captain Marvel.
