Regarding the "Crime Exterminator Alliance", in fact, Mu Ming had this idea in his previous life.
I don't know if these producers deliberately avoid the same type of protagonist, and the protagonists of several popular criminal investigation dramas in recent years have different occupations.
Detective, criminology expert, profiler, forensic ......
Putting these people together, plus two substitutes, it just happens to be a complete criminal investigation team.
But there were no conditions at that time, so he could only think about it.
But now it's different, these IPs are all in the hands of Mizuki.
That Mu Ming is naturally like trying it to see if she can turn her cranky thoughts in her previous life into reality.
In fact, in this regard, Marvel and DC have made a lot of attempts, and have embarked on a successful path.
So, they can completely imitate their form.
For example, there is a single player first, and then a combination.
In addition to this, there can be a lot of derivative plans.
For example, in their original world, these geniuses can single-handedly overthrow an entire high-IQ criminal group.
So, how powerful a criminal or criminal organization needs to be to deal with a criminal or criminal organization that requires a collection of these geniuses.
If you follow this line of thought, then you will inevitably need to portray a strong enough villain.
So, can you derive a separate story about these villains?
Just like Suicide Squad, the criminals also have their own stories.
After all, for today's audiences, the protagonists who are coaxed by cowhide certainly like it, but the "charming and cute villain" is also their favorite.
This is a very large plan, and purely in terms of the story itself, it involves issues such as protagonist interaction, background construction, villain forces, and so on.
Also, for example, who is the protagonist of the new story after the group is formed, and who has the most scenes.
These protagonists originally had their own fans and supporters, and none of them wanted their favorite characters to end up playing soy sauce.
Coupled with these issues such as subject review, it is impossible to explain it in a few words.
So Mu Ming and Chen Zhixi just chatted a little bit, and put the topic down for the time being.
"If you really want to dig up Bai Yu, as long as he has this idea, it won't be difficult."
Chen Zhixi said to Mu Ming: "It's just that Bai Yu's suitable role will have some conflicts with Wang Kai."
Our studio is now dominated by Wang Kai, and if he comes, there may be some problems in terms of resources. ” The actor of "Signal" actually thought of Wang Kai at the beginning.
However, because he was filming "Langya Bang", followed by "The Pretender", he didn't have time, so he didn't look for him.
"Okay, the two of them have some similar images, but there are a lot of differences.
Besides, Wang Kai's popularity is very high now, and some small productions are not very suitable, so they can be handed over to Bai Yu. ” Mu Ming is very relaxed about this problem, not to mention that the various IP resources mastered by the company itself are enough.
Even if it's not enough internally, you can still contact the outside world.
Mizuki has never interfered with his own actors taking on foreign dramas.
After chatting for a while, a few questions about "Signal" passed, after all, it has only been on the air for more than half a month.
According to the progress of four episodes a week, this show can maintain its popularity for at least another two months.
"By the way, when will "The Room" be released?"
Mu Ming asked another question of concern.
"The touchstone side is preparing for simultaneous release in China and North America, so it will take some time to prepare."
Chen Zhixi introduced: "When do you think our schedule is appropriate?
” "Whatever, you can discuss it with the touchstone."
Mu Ming waved her hand casually.
Mu Ming didn't expect much box office for this movie, after all, even with his popularity and the blessing of the Cannes actress, it cannot be denied the fact that the audience of literary and artistic feature films is not large.
"Two hundred million."
Mu Ming sighed and said: "If the box office in the domestic market can be 200 million, I am very satisfied." ” The production cost of "Room" is only 20 million, plus the related publicity and public relations expenses in Cannes, the total is only more than 30 million.
Therefore, as long as the box office can have about 80 million, it will be able to return to its original cost.
"You're underestimating your box office appeal and Cannes influence."
Chen Zhixi said half-jokingly.
"You also overestimate the acceptance of literary dramas by domestic audiences."

Mu Ming was unmoved.
Chen Zhixi smiled, she really couldn't refute this.
In fact, this is not only the case in China, but also in the film market all over the world.
It's always comedy and sci-fi that sell well, and other genres have to stand aside.
"By the way, what's next for you?"
The filming of "Room" is complete, and the Cannes is over.
According to Mu Ming's previous habits, it is generally necessary to start preparing for the next movie at this time.
Unexpectedly, Mu Ming shook her head and said in a lazy tone: "I don't have any plans, I'm going to rest for a while." ” "Rest?"
Chen Zhixi looked at Mu Ming in surprise and subconsciously repeated.
"Actually, it can't be said to be a break."
Mu Ming raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm actually going to slow down some shooting."
I haven't done anything else in the past two years, just making movies. ” Chen Zhixi nodded understandingly.
Also, since the year before last, Mu Ming has made four films in less than three years.
And every work can be called of excellent quality.
This is indeed too much energy consumption for a director.
Mu Ming noticed the look on Chen Zhixi's face, and probably knew what she was thinking.
I smiled in my heart and didn't explain.
And objectively speaking, in fact, this statement is not wrong.
Although his memory contains the plot of the story and the finished picture, it is not much easier to turn the memory into a real movie than the creators of the original version.
However, this is only one aspect, the main problem is that Mu Ming feels that she has exported a little too much in the past two years.
Director, in fact, is a profession that constantly exports his thoughts in the form of movies.
And according to the conservation of energy, in order to have a continuous output, there must be a continuous input.
The so-called thick accumulation can thin hair, Mu Ming has obviously been "thin hair" in the past two years, and there is a lot missing in the "thick accumulation".
The memories in her mind have a time limit, and as the time point of rebirth gradually approaches, Mu Ming also has a lot of urgency.
However, for him, this sense of urgency is not to quickly take out the things in his memory, but how to take advantage of this time of memory that he can still rely on, and really elevate himself to a suitable position.
After all, judging from the current situation, he still has some talent in movies.
Coupled with the current resource support, as long as the real comprehensive strength keeps up, then even without the memories of those previous lives, he can be fearless.
