章節 342: The Future
It's been a year to remember for Hollywood, and it's been a year to celebrate for Enigma.
It can be said that this is a truly bumper year for Enigma Company.
The movie The Three-Body Problem, from its release to its completion, has generated a total box office of 2.8 billion U.S. dollars worldwide. Such box office figures have made it the most profitable movie in history and also made Enigma Company officially reach the top.
But this T.V. series is not Enigma's only earnings this year.
When December came, another movie invested and produced by Enigma Company, Inception, was also released. This movie, directed by Nolan and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, immediately set off another round of box office climax after its release.
Although this movie, as a 2D investment movie, did not cause as big a sensation as the 3D The Three-Body Problem, and its box office figures did not catch up with the number one in history so fiercely, The movie's box office still shocked Hollywood with a figure of more than 700 million U.S. dollars - a film company has achieved a box office of 3.5 billion U.S. dollars with two movies. Such figures make everyone jealous.
In the past, people thought that Enigma Company was just a small company created by Levi to shoot his own movies. But now, people all have to admit that this company is indeed one of the largest companies in Hollywood.
Even those who work with them can know this.
Enigma Company has also been preparing for a new movie recently, and for their new movie, they are also inviting directors and actors. For example, for the movie "The Chorus," Enigma Company invited Sam Mendes to be its director - this British director was once quite famous. In 1999, he directed American Beauty and competed with Levi. It can be said that he has a very high starting point. But in the past two years, he has not been able to continue his efforts. He has never made a good movie, and his life has not been very smooth.
This time, he accepted Levi's invitation to direct the film - as a director. He has directed many stage plays before. Although he lacks enough experience in filming musicals, he also has his own unique insights to direct this film. It's the best.
In addition to these, Enigma Company has naturally not forgotten to make persistent efforts in 3D movies. The film Life of Pi, directed by Ang Lee, has officially entered preparations. Although we don't know how long it will take to be released, no one doubts that Director Ang Lee will be able to do it now that he has the conditions for 3D shooting from Enigma Company. A great film was made.
How to shoot 3d movies. It is more suitable for shooting literary and artistic films rather than commercial films, and Ang Lee is obviously a connoisseur of artistic films. What can he achieve with the 3D effect? People are also waiting to see.
At one time, Enigma Company had many movies in the pipeline. Although none of these movies are Levi's own movies, Enigma Company is still valued by everyone.
Compared to ten years ago, when they were just a small company that relied on making Levi's movies, the company has grown so much. Levi is still the most important director in their company; however, the company is no longer completely dependent on Levi - it has fully grown into one of the preeminent production companies in Hollywood, and The company's business isn't just about movies.
Apparently, Enigma Inc. hasn't forgotten. Although his company now produces the highest-grossing movies in history, it is still a company that started out as a T.V. series. While they are creating movies, they are still paying attention to the T.V. series market.
These concerns can be said to come from many aspects. For example, in 2007, they cooperated with C.W. T.V. station to bring Cecily's novel "Gossip Girl" to the T.V. screen and made it into a T.V. series.
Youth idol dramas are not something that Enigma Company is used to producing, but for a big company like them, how difficult is it to produce such a drama now? They invited director Mark Piznarski, who had directed Cuties, to direct this T.V. series. They also strived for perfection in the T.V. series' costumes, props, sets, etc. As for the selection of actors, it was even more difficult for them. The problem is that finding a few handsome men and beautiful women is the easiest thing in Hollywood. And with all this in place, how could a T.V. series still be bad?
It would have been very easy for a company like them to produce such a T.V. series. In fact, if it weren't for maintaining a good relationship with the C.W. T.V. station, they would be too lazy to make a T.V. series like this - the current Enigma Company hopes to cooperate more with some pay stations. After all, pay T.V. stations have a higher investment ratio in T.V. series. , the television they were able to produce could be better.
For example, the recently co-produced "Breaking Bad" is such a T.V. series. Compared with the works of public channels, such T.V. series are more sophisticated and outstanding. Of course, they are less concerned about age groups and are easier to perform. The level of T.V. drama production is naturally higher.
It is easy for today's Enigma Company to obtain large investments from pay stations to film T.V. series.
In addition to this, they have also begun to cooperate with Netflix, and they have even begun to try to sell their own T.V. series on the Internet.
"I think this should be a good try. Why not try it? The Internet is becoming more and more popular now. Maybe this model will become more popular than T.V. stations in the future."
Levi does not think this model can become popular across the United States now, but it will also be a media channel in the future. Since my company can cooperate with T.V. stations, why can't it cooperate with Netflix? Having more options is never a bad thing.
In this regard, they also gained a lot.
A production company has made a lot of money at the box office and has many works in T.V. series. Such achievements are enough to make most people jealous. However, what the Enigma Company has is obviously more than that.
While making money, Enigma Company's reputation in the eyes of the media and even in Hollywood as a whole is definitely not bad.
The reviews of this company's movies have always been good. In the eyes of the media, they have always been a company that can produce good movies. In the eyes of many actors, the movies they invest in are also of great benefit to the actors' careers.
This statement is not false at all. For example, the movie Midnight Barcelona, which was released this winter, gained a lot of fame for Penelope, who played a supporting role in the movie. Many media have predicted that she may win the Best Supporting Actress Oscar this year, which is a very important step for her.
In addition to him, Leonardo DiCaprio, who starred as the male protagonist in Inception, has also received a lot of praise from people. This actor, who has always worked hard to transform into an acting school, is indeed improving his acting skills step by step. Moreover, what makes people even more envious is that not only did he act well in this movie, but it is said that Levi also wanted him to star in The Three-Body Problem and play a very important role in it, which is even more enviable.
Who doesn't know that if The Three-Body Problem is released, the box office and reviews will definitely be extremely high? Just look at how much praise The Three-Body Problem 2 has received during this awards season, and you already know what The Three-Body Problem will be like.
This awards season can be said to be basically the solo dance of Three-Body Problem 2. Although there are other good movies this year, including No Country for Old Men, La Vie en Rose, and others, it can be said that each has its own merits, but in the competition with The Three-Body Problem, they all lost.
This film, which has revolutionized technology and is not weak in content, has been decided since its release that it will be the undisputed best of the year. Whether it's a Golden Globe Award, a Director's Guild Award, or an Oscar nomination, he leads the way and stands out from the crowd.
I got the Golden Globe Award and the Directors Guild Award easily. This seems to mean that there is no suspense about this year's Oscars. It is inevitable that The Three-Body Problem will win the award. The remaining problem is this movie. It's a matter of winning a few awards and whether we can break the record.
A profitable movie company, an excellent T.V. series company, a movie company that can help actors gain honors - these names all belong to the Enigma Company. Relying on Levi's vision, they developed for ten years. In ten years, Now they are firmly seated at the top of Hollywood film production companies.
Starting from a precarious company, within ten years, they finally became a major company in Hollywood.
And all of this, it is undeniable that it all originated from Levi. While his company is developing, people are quite sure of one thing. Whether it can break the record is unknown, but it is inevitable that Levi will break the record and win his third Oscar.
For Levi, this was also a major achievement: in ten years, he not only established his own company but also finally became an outstanding director.
After ten years of unremitting efforts, he established his own company, and a successful movie brought him to the top. What else is there to be dissatisfied with? Everything he wanted, he had already obtained.
In the past ten years, all developments have been under his control, and he believes that nothing will change in the future.
