If measured by Hollywood-style standards, the production cycle of "Hypnosis Master" can be described as incredibly short.

It took less than 40 days from the start of writing the script in mid-August to the start of filming in late September.

Due to the background of the finished films of his previous life, the number of discarded shots of Li Mo during the filming process is pitiful, and the two leading actors Lei Jiayin and Wan Qian are both acting roles, even if the unexpected workload of plot reversal is added during the filming process, all the filming work is still over in mid-November.

From writing the script to completing all the materials, it took about 90 days.

Except for the Xiangjiang in the last century, this speed can be called super high-speed......

……

After completing all the filming work, Li Mo generously invited all the actors and behind-the-scenes team members who had not left the crew to have a finale dinner.

This is not Li Mo's idea to play this team.

People borrowed it from Fiber Optic Media, even if they don't save the face of Fiber Optic Media, most of the people in the behind-the-scenes team have to start preparing for Xu Zheng's "Thai Embarrassment" after a short rest, so much money has been spent on movie shooting, what can't you afford a finale dinner?

After this incident, Li Mo really felt that Xu Zheng was a person to befriend.

Xu Zheng not only writes and directs three repairs by himself, but also invests, produces, and promotes newcomers.

And he has a good relationship with Ning Hao, Huang Bo, Wen Muye and others, and he is surrounded by people who have little to do with the imperial capital HY, at least he doesn't have to worry about becoming an opponent with him one day.

As for HY, although the mall only has interests, with Li Mo's understanding of Zong Shuai, he doesn't think that when there is a chance to get into HY one day, Zong Shuai will not start......

…………

After the crew disbanded, Li Mo first completed a rough cut version with a length of about 120 minutes, and began to produce a trailer for the promotion and release of the film on the basis of this version.

The trailer is still learned from Hollywood in China, and it is completely a pure imitation, and I don't understand the motives of people making trailers at all.

In Li Mo's view, each promotional film must take on a corresponding task in the film promotion strategy.

After discussing with Fiber Optic Media, Li Mo decided to enhance the realism of the trailer as much as possible when editing the trailer, and first hyped up the concept of "hypnosis".

Not only that, Li Mo also equated the role of "internationally renowned hypnosis tutor Xu Ruining" starring Lei Jiayin with the real world-class hypnosis masters such as Milton, Charlie, John, etc., creating a sense of substitution for the real existence of 'Xu Ruining', so as to enhance the persuasiveness of the basic setting of "Hypnotic Master" to the audience.

and at the end of the trailer, Lei Jiayin appeared on the scene, holding a pocket watch and planning to hypnotize the audience......

According to the feedback results, the effect is even better than expected.

This is mainly thanks to Lei Jiayin and Wan Qian, now they are familiar in front of the audience, at most, they are far less well-known than in their previous lives, and some viewers really regard the 30-second trailer as hypnosis......

…………

After completing the initial trailer, the next thing that needs to be finalized is the schedule for the release of the film.

The influence of Celestial Empire movies in this time and space is still limited to a few surrounding areas, and most of the income still depends on the local box office.

In this case, schedule selection, publicity methods, trailers, on-demand screenings and other methods can almost determine the success or failure of a movie.

As for the 'tap water' after the release, where did this kind of thing come from in 2011......

The first thing that was determined was that the launch time of "Hypnosis Master" must be in the first half of the year.

Fiber Optic Media originally suggested that the launch time was May 11.

Originally, I thought it was okay, but when I asked the reason, Li Mo immediately felt that Fiber Optic Media had received a benefit from someone, and deliberately wanted to put "Hypnotist Master" to a bad place, and then pit himself.

…… Because "The Avengers" is scheduled to be released in China on May 5.

What are you kidding? For the first time in the Marvel Universe, which has been laid out for many years, a large team of superheroes has been assembled on the big screen, and "Hypnosis Master" collided with it only a week apart, and God knows what the outcome will be.

June is basically a precursor to the summer file, and the film type and atmosphere of "Master of Hypnosis" are not suitable for the summer file, PASS

You can only choose from January to April.

was the first to be out in April, "Titanic 3D" is scheduled for April 10, although more than ten years have passed since the release of the ordinary version, but in the land of the Celestial Empire, the power of feelings is absolutely beyond imagination.

…… A movie ticket owed to Xing Ye made "The Mermaid" the second in the Chinese box office,

…… Paul Walker's posthumous song "See You Again" propelled "Fast and Furious 7" to the box office of foreign language films.

The list goes on and on......

…… Can't be provoked, can't be provoked.

January is definitely not good, the Spring Festival in 2012 is in January, although most people in 2011 have not developed the habit of watching movies for the New Year, but at least the basic atmosphere of the film should be in line with the festive, reunion, lively atmosphere, January, PASS!

There is Valentine's Day in February, who goes to the cinema to watch a thriller and suspense movie on Valentine's Day, and in general, it has experienced the Spring Festival......

Wait, Li Mo suddenly remembered that now is not 2018 before he crosses over, and the understanding of major distribution companies for the Lunar New Year + Spring Festival is still in the exploration stage, and it will not be until HY's "1942" at the end of 2012 achieves "Thai Embarrassment" that everyone will have a clear definition of the Chinese New Year movie.

And if packaged properly, "Master of Hypnosis" can also be turned into a movie about love and redemption.

You don't see Bi Gan's "The Last Night on Earth", just a name can turn a very niche art film into a dating movie on Chinese New Year's Eve, and it can win more than 200 million at the box office on the first day of launch, what else is impossible?

…… Although the 95% single-day box office drop the next day also set a record for the decline of the Chinese box office.

However, it is not ...... that people can go down in history

I just don't know if people are willing to accept this way.

In addition to the convenience of the film's theme and packaging, there is another advantage that "Hypnosis Master" chose to be launched in February - from February to April 10, there are basically no blockbusters released in Li Mo's memory.

Fiber Optic Media was originally worried that "Very Little Spy 3" and "Alien Battlefield" would have an impact on "Hypnosis Master", but in fact, as long as it is analyzed, it will be found that even if it is produced by Hollywood, a young children's movie like the "Very Little Agent" series has never achieved box office success in the Celestial Empire. What's more, this series has been filmed so far, and the cute Lori and Zhengtai in the first part have been disabled early......

As for Disney's "Alien Battlefield......

Do you think the first of the top ten box office tragedies in Hollywood history is in vain?

After discussion, "Master of Hypnosis" was finally set for February 17, 2012.
