MTL - After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood-Chapter 149

After all, no one came forward and said that they quit.

To put it bluntly, people are not against overtime, but against unpaid overtime.

There is enough reward, in fact, Americans are also willing to work overtime.

"You have worked hard."

After soothing, Kevin took over a large box full of film.

This is the film with an investment of 60 million yuan. If something happens, tens of millions will be gone.

"Kevin, can I watch the next clip?"

Looking at these films, Tsui Hark was full of heartache.

He knew that many of these materials would be edited by Kevin. As a director, he was really reluctant.

However, this is inevitable.

This is why directors and editors are divided into two professions.

These are the results of the director. If you edit the director yourself, a lot of unnecessary content will be edited into it.

At this time, it is difficult for the director to achieve an objective point of view.

There are not many people like Steve Kevin who have been editing their own movies all the time, and who have been ruthless.

Looking at Tsui Hark's expression, Kevin thought for a while, but agreed.

Of course, he would not let Tsui Hark interfere with his editing work.

"Yes, but Director Tsui Hark, I hope you will be a quiet spectator."

"I will."

Xu Ke happily agreed.

Next, Kevin went out and talked to Dawson about the editing.

He led Tsui Hark into the editing room.

･･･

From the mainland Sichuan, the beautiful scenery of Mount Emei scrolls on the major propaganda screens.

During the time when Kevin took Xu Ke into the editing room, the movie Shushan began to increase its promotion efforts.

As an upper-middle film led by three films, there is no shortage of publicity resources.

However, Kevin himself is not confident that he can make a big hit, and naturally he will not invest too exaggerated publicity funds.

Therefore, what Shushan has received is the standard propaganda resources for the film it invested in.

As for what shouldn't be there, of course there's nothing at all.

Under such publicity, Warner, MGM, and Chenxi are all collecting various word-of-mouth reviews of the movie Shushan, and making their own judgments about its potential.

Inside Warner Bros.

Robinov once again called a high-level meeting.

Looking at the executives in the audience, Robinov handed out the data in his hand and said:

"What do you think of these viewers' comments on Shushan?"

According to the data, the audience gave unanimous praise to the various peculiar costumes and scenery revealed in this promotional film.

There are also detailed records of some of the most praised words.

For example, this is a scenery we have never seen before, after watching this promotional video, I want to go to that country to see it.

There are also reviews of the clothing in it.

An audience said.

These clothes contain a unique charm. I think they are more temperamental than those high-end clothes that sell for tens of thousands of dollars.

words like that.

The news revealed is that Shushan has the temperament of a blockbuster movie.

Of course, good word of mouth, and then when it comes to the real release, the box office is not without a crotch, but at least, the chance of this movie being successful is much higher.

Under Kevin's targeting, Warner, which has suffered heavy losses, also wants to make up for it from other places.

Accidentally discovered that Shushan might be a gold mine, and invested one-third of Warner's investment, and suddenly thought.

"President, I think Shushan's box office is likely to explode."

"I feel the same way."

"..."

The executives in the audience all expressed their unanimous opinions, and they all believed that the movie Shushan had great potential.

Everyone thought so, and Robinov also began to believe his own vision, and immediately said:

"Then contact MGM and Chenxi Films to increase publicity funds, expand publicity efforts, and make Shushan more successful."

Chen Xi, who also received the data, and MGM both made a joint decision to increase publicity efforts.

In this day and age, the malice towards the Chinese is actually not that big.

After all, when the malice towards the Chinese reached its peak, it was when the country was at its strongest. At that time, the United States regarded the mainland as its only competitor.

This is aimed at from every angle.

If the mainland only has the qualifications of his younger brother, the United States will not only not target, but will only support.

Just like this era.

From the perspective of the United States, the mainland at this time can only play some low-end manufacturing industries and lag behind them too much.

In the face of such a continent, it is difficult to raise hostility.

Chapter 221 Shushan Promotional Video

The mentality of the Americans is vividly described by the cartoon Rabbit.

Under such propaganda, Americans have raised their minds to travel to the mainland.

The biggest disadvantage of industrialization is the pollution to the environment.

Most Americans have not seen such a beautiful scenery in reality for a long time. The pollution in the United States is too serious. In a small episode, they do not eat river fish. The biggest reason is not to say that there are many thorns. The heavy metal pollution in the river exceeds the standard, and it is easy to be fatal if eaten, which is why most Americans give up river fish.

These all explain the poor environment in the United States, and why they vigorously promote environmental protection, it is nothing more than suffering enough.

Kevin doesn't know about the publicity of the outside world, he only cares about the quality of the movie.

The storyline of the film Shushan is very simple. It is the story of an ordinary boy who gets an adventure and becomes a hero who saves the world.

This kind of story, in Hollywood, can find hundreds of different versions.

To put it bluntly, this kind of story is not a plot at all.

Elements such as rhythm, scene, special effects, action, etc.

This is the biggest factor for the audience to watch this movie. Therefore, Kevin did not hesitate to cut some redundant scenes shot by Tsui Hark.

On the side of Tsui Hark, his face was even more uncertain.

Almost couldn't hold back several times.

That is, Steve Kevin, if it was someone else, he could not help cutting his clips like this.

Kevin's editing, the focus is on the fast pace.

Some of the uninteresting transitional plots in the plot are all cut out. During the process of the protagonist's adventure all the way, he has seen all the scenery, obtained adventures, and strengthened his strength.

Then save the world.

Kevin's only contribution to this film is to speed up the pace, and at the same time the characters are very distinct, bad is bad, good is good.

All in all, after watching it once, it's cool.

Then there is no need to watch it a second time, it is the best evaluation of this movie.

However, that doesn't mean it's not a good movie.

What Kevin hates the most is the mess of definitions people give to movies.

Movies are a tool for entertaining the masses and enriching the spirit of the masses.

As long as the public can enjoy the spiritual pleasure of entering this movie theater, then this film is qualified.

Of course, except for insulting the audience's IQ.

After half a month, the movie was finally edited with special effects. After a few more days, the subtitle music was processed, and the movie could officially debut.

Although the special effects work only lasted for more than a month, Kevin worked overtime every day regardless of the cost.

The special effects of the three-month time effect were directly made.

For this reason, the production cost is clean, and there is no one left.

After sealing all the edited films in a lockbox, Kevin walked out of the editing room with Tsui Hark.

First, they each took a shower to get rid of the smell brought by not going out for so long.

After another delicious meal in a nearby high-end restaurant, Kevin and Tsui Hark returned to the company.

After sitting with Tsui Hark in the office for a while, Dawson came to report to work.

"Boss Kevin!"

Although all within the company, Dawson hadn't seen Kevin in a while.

In the editing room, everything should be there, and Kevin hardly went out during the editing period.

has been working.

"This is the recent publicity situation of Shushan, as well as some word-of-mouth data."

Kevin took the information and looked at it.

Dawson went on to report:

"At present, including MGM and Warner Bros., they all believe that Shushan has the potential to explode at the box office. After discussing with me, they have also increased investment in publicity."

"The reputation of the film's promotional film is quite good at present, and the effect of the promotional film is very good."

"The schedule is being communicated with the theater chain."

"It seems that it may be able to win 30% of the film."

MGM and Warner worked together, plus Steve Kevin's producer, although not Steve Kevin's directing work, but still won 30% of the film.

This shows that the theater party is also very optimistic about Shushan's market expression, which makes Kevin a little surprised.

In fact, Shushan himself is not so confident.

After all, except for the male and female protagonists, most of the films are foreigners. It is quite difficult to make a big hit in the exclusive American market.

But these word of mouth prove that Americans are also curious about the culture of the outside world.

The Chinese flavor of Shushan has a unique style that seems to appeal to Americans.

"Keep up the publicity, the Shushan movie will be completely completed in a few days."

Kevin thought for a while and then ordered.

"Okay, until the release, I'll keep it up."

"Also, is the preview held normally?"

Dawson asked.

Kevin nodded.

"As usual."

What Kevin said was business as usual, and it was Dawson who invited those film critics who had always been friendly towards Dawn movies.

To put it bluntly, it is to buy a group of navy film critics who praise Shushan.
