(The first update was delivered a little late. Monday was busier.) Some chapters of the novel have been edited and need to be reviewed. Some things in the novel are not too detailed, so everyone should understand. For example, some official departments are directly replaced with official departments. I won't specifically mention which departments ~)
"The comic version of 'Iron Man' has been released.”
Li Xiuxin posted a Weibo post with a link. It was the newly released " Iron Man " comic.
The manga was meant to educate people about Iron Man and the future Marvel Universe that Li Xiu would change.
As soon as they confirmed that the next movie would be Iron Man, Li Xiu asked Liu Yan to find someone to create a manga.
The character settings were all there, and there was also a rough plot. The detailed plot background would be expanded by the editors hired by the company. The manga and the movie would definitely be different, or more detailed, so that people could understand the manga and watch the movie.
In Li Xiu's previous life, a movie could usually derive various copyrights: There were novels, comics, animations, games, and so on.
Li Xiu didn't expect the comics to make money. He only wanted to use them to educate people.
Now, his Weibo followers had exceeded 25 million. Under the bombardment of Ye Wen and his super Kung Fu, his Weibo followers had increased by more than 10 million.
There were true fans and anti-fans among them. In short, the attention had increased.
After his Weibo post was posted, it quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Iron Man's manga also entered everyone's attention. From this manga, they could roughly know what the movie was about.
After more than a month of preparation, the preliminary preparations for Iron Man were basically done, and they could officially start filming.
The remaining props and scenes might take some time, but he could shoot other things first.
On December 15th, at the Shanghai Peninsula Hotel, Iron Man held a grand opening press conference.
After Ye Wen exploded, Li Xiu's popularity reached a peak. If it wasn't for his special status, he would definitely be the target of the crowd every day.
Ever since the release of Ye Wen, Li Xiu had not appeared much. Naturally, everyone would not let go of this opportunity.
Moreover, Li Xiu's new movie had also attracted everyone's attention. It was said that the investment was worth hundreds of millions. Although the exact number was not stated, it was obvious that the investment was not low based on the preparations.
As the director and male lead, Li Xiu played the villain: Zhuge, Wang Wei, who played the male protagonist's good friend Colonel James Roddy, Xu Feipeng, who played the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Kong Zhixue, who played the agent Phil Coulson, Zhang Xiaoran, who was a guest reporter, and... Li Xiu's assistant, Liu Yan, who played Little Chili!
In addition, there were many guests and officials from Shanghai!
There were more than 30 reporters at the press conference. It was very lively.
The deputy secretary and director of Shanghai Media and Television Administration Bureau delivered an opening speech, expressing their support for Iron Man.
From this, everyone could see that Li Xiu had a very strong backing.
Normally, even if there was a big scene in a movie, the most they could do was to apply for permission from the officials to shoot it. Give a speech? This was not something that ordinary people could do.
In fact, Li Xiu was able to invite the officials over because he was a bureau chief. On the one hand, it was indeed for the sake of his mother. On the other hand, the movie Iron Man was indeed enough to make them take it seriously.
Dingtian Entertainment and Li Xiu had promised when they applied to shoot the movie. At the same time, they could check the rough content of the script when they reviewed it.
The investment for this movie was more than 400 million, or even more. It was definitely a huge investment.
Once the movie Iron Man was released, it would truly showcase the prosperity of Shanghai!
After that, Li Xiu, who was wearing a suit and tie and had a mustache, gave a simple speech. He mainly talked about the creation process of the script for Iron Man, the importance he attached to the movie, his expectations, and so on!
Originally, he wanted to wear the Iron Man battle suit directly, but unfortunately…the props for the Iron Man battle suit were still being made. This was not a small project, and the cost alone was as high as millions!
As the best actor, Zhuge also said a few words to express his high expectations and expectations for Iron Man.
He said that the script of Iron Man was very exciting, so he agreed to act in this movie and be a big villain. A sci-fi movie was his first time, but he had read the script and said that he would not let everyone down.
Then, the reporter asked the actors of the film's main production team questions.
Without a doubt, Li Xiu, Zhuge, and Liu Yan were the targets of all the reporters.
A reporter asked Li Xiu," Director Li Xiu, everyone knows that your kung fu is very good. You're known as the martial arts superstar who can fight the best. There's no one else like you! However, after the success of Ye Wen, why didn't they continue to shoot this type of movie and instead turn to shooting sci-fi movies?”
"Because I want to give it a try ~"
Li Xiu stroked his newly grown mustache and thought for a moment before saying,""One martial arts movie per year is enough. I don't want to continue filming. I'll just start 'Ye Wen'next year. I mainly want to try out other types of movies!”
"Isn't Director Li afraid that this 'Iron Man' will fail like the other movies?”a reporter asked.
" Failure is entirely possible," Li Xiu said." But it's not good to not try because you're afraid of failure. I've noticed that very few people in the Chinese film market shoot sci-fi movies…Someone has to give it a try!”
"How long is Iron Man expected to be filmed? When is it expected to be released to the audience? How much is the total investment?" a reporter asked.
Li Xiu replied," The filming time won't be too long. It'll mainly depend on the post-production, especially the special effects. In order to ensure the quality, we hired digital visual effects to produce the post-production special effects…We'll try to release it before the Spring Festival next year…The total investment should be more than 500 million!”
Another reporter asked Liu Yan," Miss Liu, you don't have any acting experience. How did you get to star in Iron Man?”
It was obvious that Liu Yan had used her connections.
Liu Yan appeared calm.
As Li Xiu's assistant and also a law doctor, this small scene was not enough to scare her.""This is CEO Li's decision. I didn't know about it before. I only found out after the actors were announced!”
A reporter asked Liu Yan," You don't have any acting experience, and you haven't studied acting. Do you think you can play this role well?"”
Liu Yan expressed her uncertainty." I'm CEO Li's assistant. I'm acting as an assistant in the movie, so it's pretty much the same as usual. As for how I'm considered to have acted well, I don't know either. We'll have to wait until the movie is released and see the audience's comments!”
Someone also asked Zhang Xiaoran,"What role will you play in Iron Man?" Why aren't you among the main actors?"
" I am very optimistic about the movie Iron Man, but the characters in it are not suitable for me. This time, it is just a cameo. Director Li said that if there are suitable roles in the future, he will consider me..." Zhang Xiaoran said.
"Zhuge…"
"Wang Wei, can I ask…"
At the end of the press conference, Li Xiu and the other actors started the opening ceremony together, announcing the official start of the production of Iron Man!
