Chapter 434: Minions? A big villain as the protagonist?

After Chen Mo finished filming *Slumdog Millionaire*, he returned to Beijing.

Mo Company.

"Sister Wang, how is the movie promotion now?"

Putting down the work in his hand, Chen Mo asked Wang Jinghua.

"The promotion effect of the movie in Europe, America and China is quite good, but the promotion effect in Southeast Asia is very average."

Wang Jinghua reported to Chen Mo straight to the point.

"If we were not competing with Bollywood for the box office this time, the audience supporting *Slumdog Millionaire* might not be a minority, but many of their local people support Bollywood..."

As she said, Wang Jinghua took a deep breath.

"I think the result of competing for the Southeast Asian market with Bollywood this time may be uncertain."

She said her thoughts.

In fact, it is not just Wang Jinghua who thinks so, everyone in the market thinks so now.

"It's okay, as long as the promotion is in place, everything will be clear when the movie is released."

For what Wang Jinghua said, Chen Mo did not panic.

These are all things that are expected to happen.

Whether a movie can break into the market depends on the quality and reputation of the movie.

"By the way, Sister Wang, help me take this to DreamWorks."

Wang Jinghua was about to retreat, Chen Mo suddenly called her.

Then he handed her the U-disk and draft drawings on the table.

"What is this? Are these cartoon characters you designed? Why do some of the characters on it only have one eye? They look so cute."

As soon as Wang Jinghua picked up Chen Mo’s draft drawings, she was immediately attracted by the cartoon character images on Chen Mo’s draft drawings.

"Well, an animated movie I just thought of, the name is *Despicable Me*."

Chen Mo explained to Wang Jinghua.

Mainly because this time he went to the Republic of India, Chen Mo ate a lot of bananas.

Every time he finished filming, he would draw on the table when he was free. After drawing, he found that he had drawn the Minions.

He still remembers that Minions were very popular in his past life.

It just so happens that *Despicable Me* has not been produced in this life, so Chen Mo simply made this movie himself first.

First occupy the IP.

"Okay, I will send the things to DreamWorks for production immediately. This is too cute, it will definitely be a big hit."

Wang Jinghua likes the Minions designed by Chen Mo very much, they look too cute.

Even she thinks this cartoon character is cute, then other little girls see this cartoon character, they will definitely think it is cuter.

Immediately, Wang Jinghua sent the script and images written by Chen Mo to DreamWorks.

She doesn't know much about the production of cartoon movies, but she feels intuitively that this movie should be very popular.

Originally, Wang Jinghua thought that the feedback from DreamWorks would also be positive, but who knew that DreamWorks raised questions immediately after receiving the news.

"The creativity of this movie is indeed very good, and the image is also designed very cute, but..."

The tone of the person in charge of DreamWorks was a bit hesitant.

"Just say it directly."

Wang Jinghua said.

"It's just that the protagonist of this movie is a super big villain. All the protagonists of previous animation movies are positive characters, because the main audience of animation movies is children. If the protagonist is a super big villain, it may be boycotted by parents around the world."

The person in charge of DreamWorks said his worries.

The production of animation movies looks simple, but in fact, there are many things to consider.

For example, the impact on children.

There has never been an animation movie whose protagonist is a super big villain.

To be honest, DreamWorks dare not make this movie.

Wang Jinghua was also stunned when she heard the words on the phone.

It seems that this is indeed the case. In all the animation movies she has seen, there is no protagonist who is a negative character.

"I know, I will go and ask about this matter again."

Wang Jinghua is also afraid that this movie will have a negative impact on Mo Company.

After hanging up the phone, she went to Chen Mo’s office.

At this time, Chen Mo was preparing to pack up and leave. Seeing Wang Jinghua coming to the office, he was stunned.

"Is there anything else, Sister Wang?"

Chen Mo asked.

Wang Jinghua did not delay Chen Mo’s off-duty time, and said the concerns of DreamWorks.

"Mo, the character image you designed is absolutely no problem, just can you change the story setting? This way this movie will definitely sweep the world."

Wang Jinghua did not beat around the bush at all.

She said whatever she had directly.

"No, the character needs to be set like this to be interesting."

Chen Mo shook his head and insisted on his own ideas.

"Don't worry, this movie will not have any problems."

Afraid that Wang Jinghua was still worried, Chen Mo comforted her.

Hearing Chen Mo say this, even if Wang Jinghua had concerns in her heart, she was dispelled by Chen Mo’s tone.

Anyway, Chen Mo’s decisions have never been wrong, just follow his decisions.

*Despicable Me* also completely started production.

……

After a period of time, *Slumdog Millionaire* has been produced, and Wang Jinghua arranged the promotion and premiere of the movie.

On the other side, *3 Idiots* was also produced at about the same time.

It also started to schedule and prepare for the premiere at the same time.

Since the production of the two movies started, many audiences have been looking forward to the release of the two movies.

Everyone wants to know whether Mo Company can shake Bollywood’s position in Southeast Asia this time.

As long as Mo Company successfully shakes Bollywood’s position this time, Mo Company will be considered to have successfully broken into the Southeast Asian movie market.

This is definitely a market that is not small.

In the global movie industry, Mo Company can definitely rank in the forefront.

……

A few days later, *Slumdog Millionaire* and *3 Idiots* both confirmed that they would be released on the weekend, and the release time of the two movies was only one day apart.

*3 Idiots* was released on Saturday first, and then *Slumdog Millionaire* was released on Sunday.

On Saturday, there were many people going to the cinema to support *3 Idiots*.

In addition to Bollywood fans, there were also many people who came to watch the excitement.

Many people want to watch both movies at the same time before making an evaluation.

The full seat rate of the premiere of *3 Idiots* was very high, almost as high as 88%.

When the movie officially started, laughter began to appear in the cinema one after another.

It has to be said that *3 Idiots* is a very typical Bollywood-style movie, filled with a lot of music and musical dramas.

Overall, it still makes the audience feel very happy.

Some fans even started to worry about whether the box office of *Slumdog Millionaire* would become high after watching this movie.

After all, *3 Idiots* is considered a very well-completed movie.
