Hollywood starts with animation

Los Angeles.

The first time Zhuke returned to the company, Victor asked Christopher Nolan to sign three directorial contracts with Christopher Nolan, and he strongly recommended him to become the director of "Fatal Turn 2".

For this, Nolan is of course extremely grateful.

Think about his predecessors, when they first arrived in Hollywood, how many people were able to act as directors from the beginning?

Except for a very few people, many well-known directors in Hollywood have also worked from small roles on the crew.

At the same time, Zhuke did not let go of the movie "Follow" that Nolan spent $6,000 to shoot.

It costs $30,000 to purchase the full copyright.

"Boss, from my professional point of view, the box office expectations for the movie "Follow" will not be too good." Victor expressed objection to Zucker's actions.

Will the box office be too good?

Of course it won't be good!

In the original time and space history, the global box office of "Follow" is less than 300,000 US dollars.

Zhuke nodded: "Victor, the movie is not in a hurry. You arrange for someone to take it to the New York Film Festival and San Francisco Film Festival to try the water. If the effect is not bad, just arrange it with our partner theater. Small-scale releases. Then just go offline DVD sales. In short, we don’t expect much money from this movie."

"Okay, I see." Victor responded.

Zhuke won't ask too much about the following specific operations. After all, Victor is professional in how to operate the film.

For the movie "Follow", Zhu Ke's purpose is very clear.

I don't expect any money from this film, mainly to win Nolan.Of course, after the establishment of the Golden Dawn Entertainment Group, the company has expanded its distribution network in several North American states. Zhu Ke is determined to let the employees of the company try more distribution methods and experience again, so as to preview the future operation and release of high-cost blockbusters.

the next day.

Zhu Ke got up early and set off for the shooting scene of the "Human Removal Project".

When it arrived at the scene, the crew had not yet started filming.The producer of the film, Kevin Fitch, was discussing today's shooting plan with the director Zach. When he saw Zhu Ke arrive, Gu Shi stopped working and greeted him enthusiastically.

"How about, did you bother you?"

"I brought you burgers."

Zhu Keyang took the two big bags full of burgers in Yang's hands. Not only that, the bodyguards Sun Lei and Zhao Wushuang also had big bags in their hands, which contained a lot of burgers.

"Besides thanking, what can we say more?"

Zha Dao said with a smile.

Kevin Fitch and several associate directors of the crew expressed his gratitude.

"The boss personally came, is already the greatest kindness." Kevin Fitch said.

Although Zhu Ke deducted a little bit, it was not too much.Well, similar to the act of giving a hamburger to a small favor, Zhuke is more at ease!

Montesquieu said: "The little details are often important in getting along with each other. Whether it is accidental or deliberate."

For this sentence, Zhu Ke absolutely agrees.

In the following time, Zhu Ke, Zha Dao, and Feiqi exchanged some questions about the "Human Removal Project" and asked if they needed help.

Fitch said: "Boss, the filming is professional, and there is no big problem. The actors of the main crew are relatively low-profile. In the early stage of publicity, it would be great if the group can give some support."

"No problem, I will tell Victor to arrange it."

Zhuke nodded: "Also, don't forget, I am a major shareholder of icq. I will contact icq company to arrange a wave of pop-up advertisements for the "Human Removal Plan" at a very low internal price."

Icq?

Upon hearing this, Kevin Fitch was overjoyed.

Being able to let icq arrange pop-up advertisements definitely exceeded his expectations.

You must know that in this era, if you don't know icq, you will be out!

I have to say that after the A round of financing, several new shareholders of icq are indeed very powerful.Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, News Corporation, Sequoia Capital and other large companies only used part of their power to promote icq, allowing icq to achieve leap-forward development in just one month.

There are 8 million registered users in North America and 4 million overseas users.

This is the current data of icq.

With the understanding that there are more than 300 million Internet users in the world, icq can have 12 million users in a short period of time, which is already very remarkable.No, it's not an exaggeration to describe it as stunning.

The problem with Kevin Fitch was solved, and it didn't take long before it was time for today's shooting.

Zhu Ke finally met the actors of the "Human Removal Project".

Well, Zhuke doesn't know any of his mothers.

Of course, this did not affect the shooting and box office performance of "Human Elimination Project".After all, the highlight of the film is not the popularity of the actors, but the creativity of the film.

Otherwise, why do you think 1234 of the series are all different actors?

This film mainly tells that in 2022, due to the overpopulation of the earth, the American government has launched a plan to allow all crimes within 12 hours to reduce the number of humans.The ugly human nature, false faces, and all kinds of violent catharsis are the highlights of this film.

Every box office performance of this series of films is quite impressive.

The box office of the first movie was close to 100 million U.S. dollars in the world, and the next few films, despite the decline in word-of-mouth, all exceeded 100 million U.S.

"The box office does not seem to be high, not comparable to popular movies such as "Spider-Man", but it costs less!"

The average production cost of each part is at most 10 million US dollars

There is no doubt that Wald Pictures, which is sitting on the "Human Elimination Project" series, will find it difficult to grow in the next few years.

Zhu Ke is now the chairman of the Golden Dawn Entertainment Group, with a net worth of more than 200 million US dollars. While his career is rising, his work is getting busier and he can't continue to spend the whole day in the crew like before.

Therefore, not being the producer of the film will be the norm in the future!

Of course, for the producers of high-cost blockbusters such as "Spider-Man" and "Harry Potter," Zhuke will undoubtedly have to personally intervene. After all, the interests involved are too huge.

"Busy and busy, maybe in my free time, I may be able to have the addiction of being a director again."

For a while, Zhu Ke couldn't help but his mouth turned slightly.

As the director of the film, although it is relatively tiring, relatively speaking, it is not very profitable, but in the process of being a director, Zhu Ke is quite fulfilled.

"Even if time does not allow me to make feature films, I can make short films!"

"For example, "Blind Tuner" is perfectly fine!"

There is no doubt that "The Blind Tuner" is a fine selection of short films, not to mention its popularity in overseas countries, even in the Great China, many netizens are amazed and sought after.

...

...

In the next few days, Zhu Ke was basically soaked in the work of UPN TV network.

The production of "America's Got Talent" has become the top priority of Zhu Ke's work.

As for the little wizard who just got the copyright, Zhu Ke did not rush to promote it, but only carried out a small promotion on the Amazon mall.Perhaps, after a while, arrange for someone to contact book sales giants such as Penguin Bookstore and Random Bookstore for further promotion.

"Tonna, you personally in charge of the production of the "Talent Show" project, I'll contact the judges, ok?" Zhu Ke said.

"No problem, boss!"

Donna answered very simply, but she knew Zhu Ke's importance to this project.Well, or you must do your best!

Can Zhu Ke not pay attention to this project?

You must know that in 2007, Fox TV paid a copyright price of US$70 million in order to obtain the North American production copyright of "The Got Talent", which did not count as the advertising share for the British company.
