Although the comic works of "Avatar" are selling well, comics are just comics after all, and many people in the film and television industry do not appreciate such childish things.
According to many people's inherent concept, comics are only for children. Who would read that as a mature adult?
Therefore, even if the comics of "Avatar" are very popular and many people in the film and television circles follow the trend and buy them, everyone is just using it to learn about Chen Feng's related developments, and no one has really published such a comic.
Keep the comics in mind.
After all, everyone knows that Chen Feng wanted to make the "Avatar" movie project before, but unfortunately it failed in the end, so he turned to comics. Therefore, the film and television version of "Avatar" is not realistic in a short time, and there is no need for everyone.
I care.
Haha, let Chen Feng slowly play with his comics. It's best if this guy doesn't come back to make movies.
This is the thought of many people in the film and television industry.
…
However, as many people hope, Chen Feng really has no intention to make movies recently. He feels that the comic series of "Avatar" is still very promising. At least it will be made into a series and become a best-seller.
possible.
Just like the most popular superhero series overseas, those works were originally comic works, and then accumulated little by little and developed little by little, until they became the most popular super IP.
Although "Avatar" will not be able to reach the level of those superhero series in the short term, if it is managed with care, it may not be too bad.
At the same time, if you want to create a classic IP, comics alone are not enough. Publishing comics is only the first step. After more people have read Avatar and like Avatar, related animations and peripheral products will also have to keep up with the development.
steps.
Especially anime and even big animated movies!
Although in the current Chinese film market, animated movies have always been a niche within a niche, and most of the works are very targeted at children, Chen Feng knows that animated movies actually have great potential.
After all, in the dream world, there are animated movies with box office of hundreds of millions or billions, and even the most powerful animated movies have box office of up to 4 billion!
Although there are very few animated films that have achieved high box office, at least the market potential is still huge.
Chen Fengneng even began to consider that if "Avatar" still cannot be turned into a live-action film and television in a few years, it might be possible to make it into an animated movie.
However, this is also the path that will be chosen as a last resort. If there is a chance, live-action special effects movies will always be the first choice.
…
With the publication and popularity of the "Avatar" comics, of course McCann also saw this book.
Feeling nervous and uneasy, McCann bought the book and read it three times in a row.
After reading it, he finally felt relieved.
Because the comic version of "Avatar" has been greatly changed compared to the original art book he saw before.
The various settings and the core of the story have not changed, but the narrative structure and plot development have been further improved, and even the characterization has become more vivid.
Overall, "Avatar" just got better!
This made McCann very excited.
At the same time, McCann also recently learned about Chen Feng's current predicament through some rumors in the Chinese film industry.
After he took the initiative to call his father Davis to question him, although Brother Aaron sent someone to negotiate with Chen Feng, the cooperation was not successful in the end.
Chen Feng seems to have temporarily given up on the film version of "Avatar" and started making comics instead.
In this regard, McCann feels that this is a good path. Just like those superhero series, first make comics and IP, slowly increase the influence of "Avatar", and then start film production when you have the strength.
.
This gave Chen Feng time and also gave McCann more time.
Because he also had more opportunities to find ways to join Chen Feng's projects.
…
Opportunities come faster than imagined.
Because within a few days, James and McCann's company formed a team specifically responsible for communicating with Chen Feng about the production of the "Avatar" anime series.
That's right, Chen Feng has already started working on the animation of "Avatar"!
After hearing the news, McCann immediately became excited. The opportunity he had been waiting for finally came. Although it was only the production of animation works, at least he could have real personal contact with Chen Feng's "Avatar" project.
Therefore, without much hesitation, McCann went to his boss and proposed that he would join in the production of the "Avatar" anime series.
McCann's leadership was quite surprised, because McCann has been very active in his work since he joined the company, and his abilities are not bad. He is considered a promising person.
Originally, the boss wanted to train him for a while so that he could develop better in the future, but unexpectedly, McCann himself took the initiative to make an anime series.
To be honest, although that project was invested by Chen Feng, it was actually a bit useless compared to the company's current business.
At present, most of the company's main efforts are devoted to the production of "The Wandering Earth 2". There are also several other special effects movies that are making progress at a leisurely pace. The overall operation of the company is very good.
As for Chen Feng's "Avatar" anime series, most of them were actually taken on because of Chen Feng's face, and that project was not too important to the company.
However, at this time, McCann took the initiative to join the project, which made the leader feel a little confused.
"Do you really want to join Chen Feng's project? The animation series is very unpopular and has no future... Why don't you wait a little longer? I will let you join a better project in the future, so that you can have better results in the future.
What do you think about the development of the company?" The leader finally advised McCann.
"Thank you, but I have already thought about it. I want to make an anime series of "Avatar" now!" McCann said categorically.
Well, since McCann himself was so determined and proactive, the leader had no choice but to agree with some regret.
McCann went out very happily.
This time, he finally found an opportunity to join the "Avatar" project.
He himself is very much looking forward to completing this project with Chen Feng and Caron!
After all, ever since he saw the first album of Avatar, that wonderful and fantastic alien world has been lingering in his mind.
Now the opportunity has finally come. Although he is working on the anime series of "Avatar", he has really joined the "Avatar" team from now on.
