615【007】

The "007" series was originally adapted from the series "007" of the same name by the well-known English writer Ian Fleming.

Ian Fleming used to be a journalist, then worked as a logistics worker at MI6, and also worked as a spy in the Security and Assistance Regulation Bureau. During World War II, he joined the Naval Intelligence Agency to form 30 stormtroopers, and was engaged in sabotage and harassment operations, making many military achievements...

Therefore, the 007 novel series was created by him based on his personal work experience, appropriate exaggeration and imagination. Because he has worked as a reporter, his writing style is good. In addition, his personal experience is rich and detailed, which makes the 007 novel very readable.

In addition, it was during the Cold War period, and the people's thinking was also affected and they also liked such spy novels, so the 007 novel was immediately popular after it was released, and Ian Fleming became a hit.

This popular novel also quickly attracted the attention of film manufacturers, and they quickly took action to buy the film and television adaptation rights of 007 novels.

The first movie was originally planned to be filmed in 1958, but Ian Fleming wrote the script twice without success. In the end, the producer had to invite professional screenwriters to co-create the script with Ian Fleming, and finally wrote the script "Dr. No. 007" and put it into filming.

In 1962, "Dr. No. 007" became a huge hit after its launch. The film cost one million dollars, but the global box office reached 16 million dollars.

After the filmmaker tasted the sweetness, the 007 series of movies were released one after another. From 1962 to now, eleven movies have been filmed. The filmmakers have even shot faster than Ian Fleming's novels. Therefore, since "007: Undersea City", the filmmakers have begun to invite screenwriters to create original stories.

...

The reason why Ye Jin made the idea of ​​007 was to create his own spy movie.

In fact, since the 2007 series became popular, there have been many imitations. For example, "Uncle Agent", a British drama released in 1964, which was later changed to a movie by Guy Ricci; France's "Tiger" series; American dramas "Mission: Impossible", "Charlie's Angel", "Detective Amon", "Super Intelligenceman Maihan", etc.

Even the Xiangjiang film industry has imitations such as "Golden Bodhisattva", "Iron Guanyin bravely defeated the Explosive Party", "Iron King Kong defeated the Ziyang Temple", and "Best Partner" series.

However, few of these imitations have been successful, and even fewer have been shot in series.

On the one hand, the 007 sign has been launched, and all imitations will be named [counterfeit] after they are released, which makes the movie a little shorter and inherently disadvantageous in terms of box office appeal.

On the one hand, the production cost is limited. The reason why spy movies are popular is mainly to satisfy the people's desire for thrilling and exciting fantasies.

As an agent, he is agile, quick-witted, advanced equipment, rich skills, conceals his identity, wanders on the edge of society, and resolves shocking conspiracies...

Such a tense, thrilling and exciting life is naturally much more fun than an ordinary person who is 9 to 5, confused and tragic, and fucking life.

So if a spy movie wants to be popular, it must produce that kind of tense, thrilling and exciting scene. It’s like Tomgo climbing the Dubai Tower in Mission Impossible 4; Tomgo takes off his plane with bare hands in Mission Impossible 5; Jason Born is killed by several skills that are not inferior to him; Bomdo wants to avoid the pursuit of satellite weapons...

It is impossible to shoot such a tense, thrilling and exciting scene without a lot of investment. Even the first one is worth $60 million.

The 007 series of movies has long become famous, so the producers dared to invest huge sums of money to shoot large scenes, allowing 007 to drive a luxury car around the world, and there are all kinds of wonderful props to use. In "007: Space City", he even left the earth and entered space.

However, because other spy movies do not have the box office appeal like it, they dare not invest heavily in cost, and it is difficult to compete with the 007 series.

...

However, these defects are nothing to Ye Jin.

In terms of box office appeal, his popularity can offset some. If a well-known director and a strong cast are added, it will not be different from the genuine 007.

In terms of cost, Ye Jin is willing to invest heavily in shooting. Two or three million US dollars is not a big deal for him now.

Therefore, he can film "The Eight Clawed Girl", but the script needs to be slightly modified. Remove 007 and MI6, change James Bond to Tagore, and change MI6 to DSF (Homeland Defense Bureau)... In this way, there is no problem.

If "Eight Clawed Girl" becomes popular, he can bring "Thunder Killing Intention", "Dawn Vitality", "Golden Eye", "Empire of Tomorrow", "Black Sun Crisis" and other products to the screen in the future.

He has already written these scripts and has registered copyright. The film's starring has also made a decision, which is to star Pierce Brosnan, the starring actor of Classic 007.

There are many actors who play 007, such as Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Timothy Dowton, Pierce Brosnan, Daniel Craig, and the unlucky George Lazanbe, who have starred in this movie. In addition, Adam West, Paul Newman, Robert Redford, etc., have also been candidates for 007.

However, Ye Jin always feels that Pierce Brosnan's version of 007 is the most classic.

In one picture, Pierce Brosnan is very handsome, elegant and chic, and still looks unchanged, chatting and laughing, and feels like a foreign version of Chu Liuxiang;

Second, Ye Jin watched the first 007 movie, which was "Black Sun Crisis" starring him. The so-called preconceived thoughts are, after he has the foundation, I always feel a little awkward to watch other 007s.

...

Ye Jin then handed the scripts to the production departments of Myth Film and Fox Film respectively. At the same time, he also received news that the "Kramers and "Big Idiots" invested in early this year have been completed and are ready to be released one after another in the early 1980s.

Ye Jin was naturally very happy about this news.

He still has high hopes for these two movies. Especially "The Kramers", starring Dustin Hoffman and Meryl Streep, are both popular movie stars in Hollywood today, and their new works are naturally worth looking forward to.
