Regarding Zhou Fangyuan's desire to make a movie, to be honest, including Cameron, it is incomprehensible.

But now that he has participated in the whole filming process and seen the sample film, Cameron no longer has any doubts about this matter. In other words, his doubts were already limited to why Zhou Fangyuan wanted to do this, and nothing else.

But for Mike and others, Zhou Fangyuan's decision to make a movie is something they can't understand at all, although the Warcraft movie is promoted by Zhou Fangyuan, but investing in movies and making movies are completely two different concepts. There are countless people around the world who have the money to invest in films, and there are many large and small conglomerates, but there are only a handful of big directors who can really sell well. It can be said that starting a profitable company is far simpler than becoming a successful director.

However, Zhou Fangyuan still did it, Mike and others couldn't understand it, but in the face of Zhou Fangyuan's invitation to them to review the movie, they were not qualified to refuse.

Anyway, it's only two hours, and everyone thinks it's a cup of afternoon tea.

The film began to show very quickly, and because there was no professional projection equipment, everything had to be settled. Not only is the projection equipment very ordinary, but the sound system is also relatively ordinary, at least for playing movies, the audio and video equipment at Blizzard headquarters is definitely not professional.

To be honest, the picture of the movie is also very vague, to use a more popular phrase in later generations, this movie is completely "picture quality", which makes Mike and others, who didn't believe Zhou Fangyuan very much, even more full of doubts.

At the beginning of the movie, it is the hero and the heroine talking to themselves in front of the camera, everyone is not stupid, of course they know what it means, but is such a movie really interesting

In just a few minutes, doubts have risen in the hearts of Mike and the others more than once, everyone, you look at me, I look at you, someone's mouth is obviously squirming, it seems that he wants to say something. Fortunately, Mike was still cautious enough, he quickly shook his head at the other party, signaling the other party not to mess around, and to take a look first.

So everyone settled down and started watching movies.

The drama of the movie is quickly promoted, the hero and heroine move into a new room and start a new life, everything feels so ordinary, it really doesn't look like a qualified movie.

But as the show develops again, the attention of Mike and others begins to be drawn to the past.

The various strange phenomena that appeared in the room made them finally realize that the movie was about to enter.

Sure enough, as the movie drama continues to advance, more and more supernatural events, as well as more and more terrifying situations begin to appear, from the various abnormalities in the room at the beginning, to the abnormalities on the protagonist later, all of which have deeply attracted everyone's attention. The previous disdain has disappeared, and everyone, including Cameron, who has already watched it once, is also immersed in the show again.

When more than 80 minutes passed unconsciously and the movie finally came to an end, everyone applauded involuntarily.

"It's amazing, boss, I really didn't expect you to make movies, to be honest, although I've seen a lot of horror movies, I haven't felt a chill in my back for a long time. ”

Mike said from the bottom of his heart.

"Yes, I still feel a little numb in my scalp, and I even want to go home and buy a video camera to take pictures of my house at night. ”

Another employee said with trepidation.

"Then I'm afraid you have to be careful, if you really find something wrong, we won't dare to work with you in the future. ”

The other immediately spoke.

"Hahahaha"

The others laughed.

The atmosphere in the room was a lot more relaxed, and the drama of the movie just now was indeed scary to be honest, which made everyone who was unprepared before feel heavy in their hearts.

And the employee who said he wanted to get a camera for himself at home didn't lie, he really thought so.

The shooting technique of imitation documentary, although the picture is very blurry, but the sense of reality is unexpectedly strong. If you didn't already know in advance that this was a movie and only watched one clip, I'm afraid you would really believe it. What's more, even though I already know that it is a movie, I still feel a very strong sense of reality, which shows that only from the point of creating atmosphere, this movie is undoubtedly a success.

"I watched it a second time, but it still feels very good, Zhou, congratulations, your movie is a success. ”

Cameron smiled and held out his hand.

"Thank you, James, but you didn't need your help during the filming process, and if it weren't for your help, I probably wouldn't have made this movie so easily. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile.

"That's your idea, your idea, I'm just working on some trivial things. ”

Cameron shook his head, clearly unwilling to take the credit. To tell the truth, Cameron helped in this drama not only this, Cameron also gave a lot of help to the drama of the movie, the whole movie is more tense and the drama is more compact, after all, with his level, he is much stronger than the original author of the movie, even if he is not good at making this kind of horror and supernatural film, but his years of directing experience and natural sensitivity to movies still make him put forward a lot of very valuable opinions for the movie. So he is completely humble when he says this, but it is understandable, after all, with his current status and achievements, there is really no need for him to leave his name in such a movie.

He is willing to let Zhou Fangyuan enjoy the complete glory of n.

It's just that his idea is good, but Zhou Fangyuan is not ready to let him go like this.

"James, don't be too modest, I have more important things to help me with, would you like to help me?"

Zhou Fangyuan smiled and said slowly.

"Ahem, boss, I remembered that there were other things to do, and since the movie was also watched, I will go first. ”

Mike's reaction was the fastest, basically as soon as Zhou Fangyuan's voice fell, he immediately took his leave.

The others also came up with excuses, and after half a minute, there was no one left in the room.

Only the projector was still lit in the room, as well as Zhou Fangyuan and Cameron standing opposite.

Cameron looked at Zhou Fangyuan, and sighed slightly after a moment, "Zhou, do you want me to help you do the distribution?"

"That's right, James, you know, I don't know many people here, and I have no foundation in the entertainment industry at all, you also see the quality of this movie, follow your own heart, you say, how is this movie"

"The movie is good"

"Wouldn't it be a huge loss if the movie couldn't be released because of my own reasons, but you're one of the most famous directors in Hollywood, you know the top of all the big companies in Hollywood, and if you were involved, it shouldn't be too difficult to release a movie. ”

"That's right, I do know a lot of people, and I can help you with this, but Zhou, do you understand what time it is now It's winter, it's one of the two most important schedules every year, do you need me to tell you what movies are there in this winter's file, just say I'm more familiar with it, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, The Lord of the Rings, Monsters, Inc., Hiding from the World, Beautiful Mind has too many strong films in this year's winter file, and they have already said that most of the canvas is gone, if you choose this time to make your movie online, don't dare to say anything else, but in terms of canvas, I can help you get less than 300 yuan at most, you should know what this means, less than 300 canvas, even if your movie is good, the box office will not rise. And the major companies currently have a complete film schedule, even if I recommend it for you, at most I can choose a good schedule for you next year, but this year is too difficult"

"But, even if it's difficult, there's value in doing this, isn't it James, I'll tell you the truth, I still hear that I need money, what about this movie, to be realistic, it's what I'm going to use to make money, if I don't rush to release it in this winter file, wait until next year's summer file, even if I sell it for more money, it won't make much sense to me. ”

“”

Cameron was silent, he looked at Zhou Fangyuan and fell into deep thought.

Zhou Fangyuan didn't urge him, just looked at Cameron with a smile.

It was a few more minutes before Cameron sighed slightly.

"Well, since you said so, I can call and ask for you, but, Zhou, I want to remind you that even if I help you get in touch, there is a good chance that there will be no results, so you have to be mentally prepared for this. ”

"Haha, don't worry, even if it doesn't work, I won't blame you, after all, if you are willing to help, I am already very happy. If it really doesn't work out, then I'll have to keep the movie in the safe. ”

"Actually, it's not bad to put it in next year's summer file"

"Besides, James, I really need money, so it's very important that the movie comes out as soon as possible, and if you can help me do that, I'm willing to pay you 10 of the proceeds. ”

"Needless to say, the money thing, I'm not short of that money, I'll help you, just take it as a reward for you to prepare the script for me, and we're friends now, aren't we, friends, everything won't be so clear. ”

"Haha, that's right, we're friends, okay, let's not talk about money, you call. ”

Zhou Fangyuan patted Cameron on the shoulder, took two steps back, sat on another chair, and looked at Cameron with a smile.

Cameron shook his head helplessly, took out his phone, and started calling.

Zhou Fangyuan listened to the side, but to be honest, he basically didn't understand what Cameron was saying.

It's not that his English level is not good, in fact, after two years of continuous review and communication, Zhou Fangyuan's spoken language is already good, but if the other party speaks too fast, he still can't understand it. Whether it's Cameron or Mike, when they communicate with Zhou Fangyuan, they may have taken into account Zhou Fangyuan's nationality and native language, so the speed of speech will be deliberately slowed down, and Zhou Fangyuan doesn't have any difficulty. But when they communicate with other people, the speed of speech will increase, and a lot of slang will be added, which Zhou Fangyuan will not be able to understand.

Cameron is like this now, and when a phone call continues, Zhou Fangyuan only understands the word "".

This must be a person's name, but Zhou Fangyuan doesn't know who it is.

Then Cameron made more than ten phone calls, and the speed of his speech was very fast every time, Zhou Fangyuan was smiling on the side, but he was already depressed in his heart, because he couldn't understand what Cameron was talking about at all. The speed of his speech was too fast, and Zhou Fangyuan tried his best, but he could only understand one or two words, but it was meaningless.

Ten minutes passed quickly, and Cameron quickly put down his phone.

"That's it. ”

"Really"

"Yes, but don't rejoice too soon," Cameron said with a look on his face, "I've already called the executives of the major distributors I'm familiar with, and I've assured them on the phone that the film is of quality, but luckily I still have that face, and most people are looking forward to it." But when they learned that I wanted this movie to be released in the near future, they all said that they already had a complete film schedule, and it was impossible to leave the movie. If it were next summer, they could spare at least a few hundred canvases for the film, but right now, they can't even move ten canvases. ”

"Ah, what should I do then?"

"Fortunately, Jim gave me a pretty good answer, they were able to evenly out 0 canvases, but the location of these theaters is not good, if you want to make your movie have a good result, it is best to release it in those theaters in better locations, you have to understand, the location of a theater, the box office data sometimes really makes a big difference. ”

"Well, I see, but, James, you're talking about Jim, he's"

Jim Janopoulos, president of Fox. ”

Cameron said casually.

"Isn't Jim Gianopoulos Barry Dilla"

Zhou Fangyuan asked subconsciously.

He really doesn't know much about these big companies in Hollywood, and those stars may still have some impressions, but he really doesn't know much about these big bosses and president-level people, and in his previous life, he didn't seem to need to know the shares and names of these people.

"Bariha, when is your news, Barry is long gone to Fox, don't you know, he left his job nine years ago, and your news is too late. ”

Cameron looked at Zhou Fangyuan with a joke-like gaze.

Zhou Fangyuan's old face flushed.

"Ahem, what's that, let's talk about movies, now only Fox is willing to help us, are there any other companies willing to help?"

"There are companies that help, but the conditions they put forward are more stringent, so I don't recommend you to choose this company. ”

"Oh, there really is such a company, tell me, which company it is"

"Disney. ”

"Hmm"

Zhou Fangyuan blinked his eyes, "Who are you talking about?"

"Disney, the company that specializes in cartoons, they're willing to distribute your movie. ”

Cameron pouted and said, with a hint of disdain on his face, although he hid it well, Zhou Fangyuan still accurately captured it. The chapter content is being restored, so please visit it later.
