Chapter 321: Live-action
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The main reason was that “Free and Easy Wandcring”‘s worldview was too grand. It involved a large number of side stories and various special effects. It would be a huge project to turn it into a movie. Even if Kangaroo Platform and the head office did not lack money, they might not be able to do it well.
Furthermore, the fans of the game had never had high expectations for the two-dimensional real personification because the past effects were usually not satisfactory.
However, no one expected that a few hours later, “Free and Easy Wandering”^ official account would suddenly repost one of the comments and reply, “We have confirmed her!”
A single stone caused a thousand ripples!
What information did the official reply reveal? Could it be that “Free and Easy Wandering” was really going to be filmed? For a moment, many people in the industry began to ask for information.
As the game with the highest daily activity in the country, “Free and Easy Wandering” was undoubtedly very popular. It was also known in the industry as a hen that could lay golden eggs. To put it bluntly, it did not lack money or fame. It was a huge IP©.
Therefore, if this game was to be made into a live action movie, it could be foreseen that it would definitely be an S+ project. It would definitely be a good thing if their actors could act in an important role in it.
For a moment, this news was immediately trending. All the entertainment companies also began to look for people to inquire about it.
However, unlike the busy companies in the entertainment industry, the gamers’ reaction was not very enthusiastic.
That was because there were not many examples of success in gaming and animation live action movies. In the past, it was already very good if one or two of the live action movies were successful.
[To be honest, I’m not at ease with the screenwriters and production teams in the country.]
[“Free and Easy Wandering”, you’re muddle-headed. Your daily revenue is so high. Do you still lack this bit of money? There’s no need to destroy your IP, right?]
He Meng was also very shocked when she saw this message. Compared to others, she had to find all kinds of channels to ask. She directly messaged the game company’s publicity staff on WeChat.
After all, this was still convenient when the two sides cooperated well.
[Is “Free and Easy Wandering” going to turn into a live-action movie?]
However, the gaming company’s reply was very ambiguous. [This news has spread. We don’t know what exactly happened.]
However, when He Meng saw this reply, she more or less guessed that this project might take shape. It was just that it had not been made public yet. After all, the gaming company would not release this information to the public unless they had strong intentions.
Hence, she replied in a joking tone, [If you really want to do this project, you can consider our Hanhan. Coincidentally, you don’t even need to do makeup for photoshoots. She can enter the production team directly.]
On the other hand, Ji Jun also saw this news. He first saved the nine-lattice photos of Yu Han’s account.
As for whether the game was going to be filmed or not, he did not care much about this. What he cared about was Yu Han. To her, if she could get an important role in a big IP script at this stage, it would still be very useful for her acting career.
“I’ll ask the producer.” Seeing that he was worried about this, Lin Zi immediately took out his cell phone and asked around for him.
[Is the news spreading online accurate? Is it really going to be a live action movie? Then your platform has been really generous with this game recently. You’re doing variety shows and filming television dramas.]
Yes, in the opinion of many people, “Free and Easy Wandering” had such a huge worldview and character stories. If it was to be filmed, it should be filmed into a television drama. In addition, Kangaroo Platform had always been a television drama and a long video platform.
As a variety show producer, Ou Cheng was actually not too related to film and television dramas. However, as a veteran producer, his social circle was quite wide.
One of his good friends, who was his university classmate back then, was an executive in the headquarters and happened to be in charge of the entertainment section, so he knew a lot of related insider information.
[They do have such an intention, but it’s not a television drama. It’s a movie.]
Lin Zi was very surprised. [Make it into a movie? Does this mean that it’s going to be made into a series of movies?]
After all, ordinary movies only lasted about two hours. It was far from enough to showcase such a grand worldview. If it was made into a series of movies, it was possible.
[This is a big deal. Is your company preparing to create a world of “Free and Easy Wandering”?] Lin Zi sighed.
[After all, it’s a big IP. We definitely have to consider the value of developing it in all aspects. However, it’s indeed a little risky, so the higher-ups are very cautious. It’s still under discussion.]
