Chapter 392

~6 min read 1,019 words

When comic book sales were poor, the headquarters still had to provide financial support to DC Comics.

The screenwriters of the DC film production department and DC head Zack Snyder were bored out of their minds all day.

Especially Zack Snyder, who emailed Xu Can every day, asking when the DC films would launch and when the scripts would be ready.

Xu Can replied: "Writing it, writing it~~."

The Warner Bros. version of "Superman vs. Batman" bombed at the box office and with critics, dragging the DC Universe back into the abyss.

The popularity built up by "The Dark Knight" plummeted suddenly, requiring a brand new reboot of a new series.

As the face of DC, Superman is naturally the core IP.

So Xu Can planned to launch the production of "Man of Steel" simultaneously with "X-Men: First Class."

He had already sent people to check Henry Cavill's schedule and was communicating with Henry Cavill.

Xu Can would help him make up for the regrets of Henry Cavill in his past life.

"Man of Steel," the Director's Cut of "Batman v Superman," "Wonder Woman," the Director's Cut of "Justice League," "The Flash"...

Between 2010 and 2011, these DC works would be successively brought to the big screen.

In the Star River Entertainment Annual Report, Xu Can had already distributed the plans and tasks.

Happy, Vanessa, Zack Snyder, Kevin Feige, and others would execute Xu Can's plan in an orderly manner.

Even if Xu Can would not personally supervise every film, he had his own arrangements for 2010 to step out and direct.

Yes, it is "The Three-Body Problem"!

This is Xu Can's most important SSS-level plan for 2010.

He had originally started preparing to film at the end of 2009, but as a semi-original film, Xu Can hoped to start shooting in the best possible state.

Currently, the film script has been adapted almost completely; at that time, he would communicate with Big Liu again and invite Guo Fan, Gengger, and others to consult together.

Striving to bring this sci-fi masterpiece to the big screen in its original flavor.

Besides the "Three-Body" trilogy, there were also Oscar-bait films like "Birdman," "Life of Pi," and "Manchester by the Sea."

Although the Oscar statuette is becoming increasingly watered down, getting one in hand is something you can do by casually making a film; why not?

Box office, reputation, and awards—all three must be grasped and must be solid!

"Do you all understand next year's work plan? The formal meeting ends here. As for the upcoming party, how is it arranged?"

Xu Can's serious expression relaxed; it was the last day of 2009, and the entire company had worked hard for a year, worth relaxing.

Considering that time management this year needed to be split into three parts, celebrating the New Year separately for each was unrealistic.

With last year's experience, Xu Can naturally invited the three beauties to celebrate the New Year again.

Last year, the filming of "Source Code" served as a cover.

This year's cover for the New Year celebration is the Star River Entertainment New Year's Party!

That's right, on this evening, in the banquet hall of the Beverly Hills Shanzhuang Hotel,

Xu Can invited all members of Star River Entertainment, plus friends from the film industry and celebrities from all walks of life, to participate in this New Year's Party together.

If it were two years ago, the party scale probably couldn't be too large; most people knew he was Spider-Man, and whether they would show face was uncertain.

Now, Xu Can is the Oscar Best Director, Best Actor, the creator of the single-day box office record over 100 million, the father of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the helmsman of the Hollywood entertainment giant!

No one could possibly ignore Xu Can's current status!

Even if he didn't invite them, many star celebrities and investors would come uninvited.

Xu Can simply sent out invitations, staging it as a Hollywood feast!

This news was released a month ago.

Xu Can's invitation had become like the golden ticket in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," Willy Wonka's golden invitation!

Whoever received an invitation was naturally considered superior within the Hollywood circle!

Even top male stars like Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt, and Al Pacino,

half of whom were Xu Can's friends, almost all expressed willingness to come.

No one would have thought that Xu Can's original purpose was simply to celebrate the New Year with three girls.

As a result, this New Year celebration added a bunch of girls, not just Kristen,

Anne Hathaway, Emma Roberts, Ariana Grande, and other female stars with good relationships with Xu Can would all be present.

Xu Can completely left the organization of this New Year's Party to Vanessa, believing she would definitely handle it properly.

"Everything is already arranged, Boss. In three hours, you may need to prepare in advance for the red carpet."

"Eh?" Xu Can was slightly stunned. "A party held in a personal capacity, and it still requires a red carpet?"

"Yes, this also belongs to a Hollywood grand event; many stars actively inquired and requested a red carpet segment..."

Xu Can thought and could understand; this Star River Entertainment Annual Meeting was indeed a top-tier showcase for the Hollywood名利场.

Stars from all sides arriving one after another would naturally attract the attention of countless media outlets.

Renting out the advertising wall for the red carpet segment would not only save costs but might even make a small profit.

Vanessa is indeed a genius.

"Alright, as long as you arrange it well... by the way, where are the others?"

Vanessa naturally understood Xu Can's meaning.

"Taylor, Emma, and Miss Scarlett have been notified; luxury cars will pick them up at that time to attend together."

"Mm, just do it that way."

They only managed to hide from Xu Can for two days by joining forces; wouldn't they have to obediently come into his embrace?

Xu Can thought it was funny; the three of them were still too childish.

The Star River Entertainment New Year's Feast is about to begin!
