"Kevin, here's our plan."
Kevin was resting in the simple house.
This kind of field shooting, the conditions are naturally incomparable with the set.
But fortunately, the crew has money, so they won't be too harsh on the crew members.
The accommodation is average, but in terms of food, there is still a lot to do, so I didn't save any money.
After receiving the plan handed over by the two, Kevin carefully examined it.
This is an investment project worth [-] million yuan, and it doesn't matter whether you want to pay attention to it or not.
It took an hour to carefully consider all the details of the two plans, and after confirming that they were correct, Kevin nodded and said:
"The project is good. You can just ask Dawson to pay the money when you go back."
After all, Kevin signed the two proposals, indicating that he approved the two projects.
Seeing Kevin's actions, the two were relieved.
These two films will be a brand new starting point for their directorial career, what the future will start from here.
Seeing how happy the two were, Kevin said again:
"I am the producer. Every once in a while, I will go to inspect the use of funds and the progress of the filming. I must catch up with the summer vacation next year."
It is almost October now, and there are still about half a year left.
If it was Kevin himself, with the movie memory of his previous life as a reference, then this time is still ample, but the production of special effects takes the most time.
But for these two directors, Kevin is really not sure if they can keep up with the schedule.
But Mitt and Zach Snyder are confident.
"Leave it to us, Kevin."
Kevin rubbed his head, the more he looked at the two guys, the less confident he became.
"You two, don't be overconfident, this is a big production."
Mitte patted his chest and said:
"Trust me Kevin, I've been an assistant director for so many years, watching you shoot, I learned a lot."
Schneider also expressed his position on the side:
Although these two guys are full of confidence.
However, in order to prevent accidents, Kevin still decided to have a day of tutoring with them.
Let's analyze the previous life, the advantages of these two movies, and them carefully.
As for those excessive plots, it is not the point.
As long as they can grasp the essence of commercial films and the selling points of the two films that Kevin explained, Kevin is not worried about the box office at all.
Looking at the confident two, Kevin smiled and said:
"Don't leave today, let me explain to you these two movies, if it were me, how would I make them."
"Listen carefully, don't change your appearance!"
Mitt and Schneider immediately looked at each other.
After listening to Kevin's explanation, it will be difficult to fully integrate into their ideas when it comes time to shoot.
No way, Kevin's prestige is too high.
Once Kevin explained the shooting method, as long as they took a shot, they would definitely compare it with what Kevin said.
And with their thinking, it's hard to compare with Kevin.
Then you can only follow Kevin's train of thought.
The two who were about to show off their skills suddenly turned bitter faces.
But this is not without benefits, that is, with Kevin's all-in-one teaching, the success of the movie can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
They understand that it is more important to succeed first than to shoot according to their own ideas.
After their prestige in the film industry is high enough to afford the loss of the film, it is time to consider letting themselves go.
Just like Kevin.
If it was Kevin, even if the next three big productions hit the street, he would still be able to find investors.
But if it were the two of them, I'm afraid that a big production would fail, and they would have to start earning qualifications again from small-budget movies.
In this way, the three of them lived in the same room, and Kevin, like a teacher, confessed all his thoughts.
The two of them took notes in half a notebook.
This can be regarded as digesting Kevin's shooting concept for Ghost Rider and Iron Man.
The next day, the two left early.
Kevin continued to shoot, and at the same time, the future Hogwarts amusement park was still under construction.
Chapter 252 Titanic Released
·····
Fast forward to December.
Advertisements for the Titanic were broadcast all over the United States.
As a commercial film that focuses on love, the focus of marketing is naturally on love.
Many are similar to:
[Want to witness the unswerving love until death?Then watch the Titanic! 】
[Titanic, an earth-shattering love story, adapted from real events, is worth watching. 】
【···】
This kind of brainwashing slogan about the Titanic is constantly spreading on the screens of major media.
To this end, Paramount and Fox jointly invested an additional 1000 million in publicity and distribution.
So far it has been broken.
They have already paid more than 1000 million U.S. dollars in investment, and the [-] million publicity expenses are not bad.
Although Fox is not very optimistic about this movie, it is impossible for these investments to be wasted. Now it can deceive as many people as possible into the cinema.
Including learning from Kevin's promotional video, Fox is not behind at all.
Under this kind of publicity, the biggest audience of Titanic, young men and women, as well as many women, have become interested.
Romance movies have a huge lethality for women over the age of 16 to unlimited ages.
But men, once past 25, tend to be less naive.
In society, men will always bear greater pressure.
This is the difference caused by production relations and physiological structure.
Of course, in fact, the Titanic, if you get the women, it's the same as getting the men.
After all, this kind of love movie is often watched by couples.
With the approval of female audiences, male audiences are forced to enter the cinema.
As for whether they like this kind of love movie or not, it doesn't really matter at all.
Under such a publicity trend.
The Titanic has entered the eyes of more than 90.00% of its target groups.
The time came to December nineteenth.
Kevin gave the crew a rare long vacation for ten days.
One is to let them spend Christmas, and the other is that it is also the release of Harry Potter, so there is no such rush.
According to the summer schedule, Ghost Rider will be released in June.
Iron Man is in charge of July.
As for Kevin's Harry Potter, Kevin is going to put it in August.
So far, next year's summer vacation is completely occupied by the movies invested by Kevin.
Just thinking about it, Kevin knows what kind of pressure he will face when these three movies are released.
Previously, it occupied up to two months of the year, and among them, the pressure on other film companies was only the first half month of the release.
In other words, Kevin won a one-month schedule in one year.
There are still a few directors like this in Hollywood.
For example, Spielberg is also very powerful.
But if Kevin is like this, and he has completed the summer vacation by himself, the follow-up will definitely attract counterattacks from major film companies.
Of course, it is impossible for Kevin to give up the great time of summer vacation because of this.
It can only be said that when the time comes, the soldiers will stop.
Calculated, there is still more than half a year, which is still plenty, so there is no need to hurry.
He has already achieved fame, and he is not the young director who had to fight for opportunities back then.
Secondly, Kevin also wanted to take a look at it. This box office miracle is the first in film history.
What is the charm.
Although he is engaged in the entertainment industry, Kevin is a typical engineering man.
Movies, to him, are not so-called art.
It is a technology that stimulates the senses and entertains the public through pictures.
In Kevin's thinking, there is no concept of love.
He also wanted to see the legend of the Titanic.
Of course, there is one more important thing.
It's Tsui Hark's new movie.
Tsui Hark wants to write a fairy tale movie about love, using the elements of Shushan, but strengthening the elements of love.
To put it simply, it is a romance film with Shushan skin.
For this reason, Kevin specially asked him to take a look at the Titanic for himself.
The concept of love in China and the West is different. If Tsui Hark uses Eastern love elements, then there is a high probability that the movie will fail at the box office.
Kevin had to make sure that Tsui Hark understood the Western concept of love well before he could start filming.
There is no way, although the main director of Shushan is Tsui Hark, but the core is controlled by Kevin.
What we are playing is the concept of a Western hero saving the world.
Seemingly incomprehensible stress.
This has also set off a wave of fairy tales in the United States.
But if Tsui Hark is allowed to operate by himself and play with some content, Kevin is sure that the box office will be over immediately.
Tsui Hark also readily accepted Kevin's invitation.
The Titanic is a masterpiece with an investment of more than [-] million US dollars.
To be honest, this is an expense that Tsui Hark can't even imagine.
When I was in Hong Kong, it was normal for a movie to invest several million Hong Kong dollars.
Anything worth tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars is considered a big production.
There is simply a difference between heaven and earth.
