Thomas stared at Lan Li with both eyes, slowly stepped back half a step back and let go of his body, and issued an invitation in the gesture of his master.

Lan Li didn't say much, just gestured to Thomas's jaw, and then gestured to Bryce and the others, and then took a step and walked straight in the direction indicated by Thomas.

The crew members who stood in place all looked at each other.

Lan Li had just appeared, and they hadn't had time to say hello, and then they were cut off by Thomas? After the moment they had been waiting for and looking forward to finally happened, they didn't have time to enjoy it, so they were interrupted? Their excitement and excitement were suspended in the air, as if the fireworks display had been carried out at a high tide and suffered a downpour, so what should Thomas do next?

It's really hard to put into words.

Colin was a little confused, and watched the back of Lan Li and Thomas as they left with uncertainty, and a faint wave of worry began to surge.

"Relax, relax! The last thing we need to worry about is Lan Li. It was Jack who spoke, and said heartlessly, "On the contrary, it seems to me that Thomas's situation is a bit dangerous. Jack crossed his hands in front of him, standing beside Colin, also looking in the direction the two people left, leaning slightly sideways, with a passer-over expression, "I don't know what Thomas is up to, but I guess he can't do it." ”

Bryce and Colin had no idea what Jack was talking about, and their thoughts couldn't keep up at all, and they both looked at Jack with question marks on their heads.

Jack shrugged, "Don't look at me. I don't know what's going on, it's just speculation. Looking at Brythe, who rolled his eyes widely, Jack said as a matter of course, "I'm not a genius, I'm just talking about things." I don't think Lan Li needs our worries. ”

So, that's a ...... Is wisdom foolish?

At this time, Lan Li and Thomas, who were drifting apart, were in a different atmosphere.

Neither of them spoke, Thomas didn't seem to intend to greet politely, and Lan Li wasn't ready to extend an olive branch, so he let the atmosphere remain silent and stiff.

In such an atmosphere, it is often the side that has the desire to lose first, and Thomas, who asked for a separate conversation today, is obviously the weaker side, he thought that Lan Li would be eager and curious, but Lan Li did not.

In fact, Lan Li completely calmed down, quietly admiring the scenery of Gurani Ranch, and his leisurely and comfortable demeanor was as if he was really a tourist who came for a walk, enjoying it, not caring at all about Thomas's scrutiny and surveillance, which forced Thomas to slowly begin to passive.

"Fox!"

Thomas cursed in his heart, but this is not unusual, he has already had a deep enough experience in the past year, isn't it? Many people think that Andy Rogers is standing behind the scenes to plan for the Blue Rites, but Thomas has always believed that without the instructions of the Blue Rites, Andy would not have been able to make his own decisions.

"Welcome to Honolulu. Thomas finally spoke, but he still couldn't hold back

He hated the jungle as much as he hated the pasture.

At this time, Thomas was wearing a handmade Italian suit, a pair of pants alone cost 3,000 dollars, and he had to wait patiently, in order to wait for this suit, he had been queuing for more than thirteen months, and now, this suit pants is walking through a dirt and grass?

He hates nature!

With each step, he felt his calves start to itch, and he always felt as if some worm had gotten into his trousers, or that his shoes and suit pants had been completely destroyed, and there seemed to be no other choice but to throw them away. Little by little, this thought was tormenting his nerves.

endured and endured, but after all, he still couldn't hold back, Thomas opened his mouth like this, but even if he spoke, he didn't intend to bow his head, but opened with a blunt polite sentence that was not "welcome to the crew" but "welcome to Honolulu", the difference is that Thomas is the producer of "Jurassic World" but not the city manager of Honolulu, and this welcome reveals a little reluctance.

Lan Li didn't respond soundly, just smiled and cast his gaze.

Thomas continued, "There's a lot of people on the crew who are waiting for you to come and can't wait to get to work, which is a good thing for the crew. We didn't invest 150 million dollars to create another 'Prince of Persia,' we needed everyone to be fully committed to it. ”

In 2010, Jerry Bruckheimer, the top producer who unearthed Michael Bay and created the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, teamed up with Disney to produce "Prince of Persia: The Edge of Time", which cost $200 million to produce and $50 million to promote, and finally only achieved a poor box office figure of $90 million in North America and $336 million worldwide.

Even Disney uses theme parks, computer games, merchandise, etc. to generate revenue, but still faces a loss of more than $80 million, without these peripherals, the loss is more than $150 million, which is also one of Disney's most loss-making works before the two works "Super Battleship" and "Alien Battlefield" lost $200 million in 2012.

This is the most expensive of Jack Gyllenhaal's commercial works.

There are countless cases of failed works in Hollywood, but at this time, Thomas specially selected the "Prince of Persia" as a typical example.

But Lan Li didn't break it, just patiently waited for Thomas's next words.

"Do you know the reason for the failure of the 'Prince of Persia'?" said Thomas, as Lan Li never spoke, and the rhythm of the conversation finally entered the mode that Thomas liked, and his emotions gradually became excited, and even his expression relaxed.

Lan Li shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal.

Thomas didn't mind, and continued, "The failure of the publicity strategy!" Thomas asked himself, "Of course, the quality of the work is one of the important factors that cannot be ignored, but before the official release of the work, before the box office explosion in the first week, the pre-publicity strategy of the work failed to capture the attention of the target group, which directly led to the initial decline of the film before the word-of-mouth spread." ”

"Do you know why, why did Disney come up with the wrong publicity strategy?" Thomas looked at Lan Li again, and asked another question.

This time, Thomas did not answer directly, but stared at Lan Li intently, as if hoping that Lan Li would give an answer.

Lan Li knew that the real drama meat was coming. Obviously, this is the focus of Thomas's discussion, or rather, this question will be the introduction to the real topic of Thomas's conversation today.

But Lan Li didn't answer, still smiling and meeting Thomas's gaze, waiting patiently.

Thomas was unrelenting, and said with a smile, "Aren't you going to take a guess? Many people have praised me in front of me, you are a young man with superior intelligence and emotional intelligence, and you have shown wisdom that does not match your age, aren't you going to show it now?"

The subtext is: You're so smart, don't you know?

Such a blatant provocation, for Lan Li, the number of paragraphs was really too low, and he didn't even want to attack, because it looked like he was bullying children, "Being humble in front of professionals is what I have been taught." ”

In other words, the implication of this statement is that Lan Li will not interfere with Thomas's work, and it is better for Thomas not to interfere with Lan Li's work.

But Thomas didn't hear the deep meaning of the words, at least on the surface, he didn't understand, or he understood but pretended not to understand, "Hah!" Thomas chuckled, then lifted his jaw, unable to tell whether he was triumphant or proud, "Because of Jack Gyllenhaal." ”

As soon as the words came out, Thomas glanced at Lan Li meaningfully, the meaning of that look was so obvious that even an idiot could see it

It's not just about Jake Gyllenhaal, it's about ...... Finger you!

Lan Li and Jack Gyllenhaal are close friends, and at the same time, Lan Li and Jack Gyllenhaal's style of doing things is also very similar, so will the reason for the failure of the "Prince of Persia" become the reason for the failure of "Jurassic World"? If it can be avoided, will Lan Li still insist on the same way as Jack Gyllenhaal?

To put it simply, Thomas is actually warning Lan Li and paving the way for subsequent words.

In the face of Thomas's frontal attack, Lan Li did not speak or react, so calmly met Thomas's gaze, and the clear and firm eyes gave a frontal response, not "I don't understand" but "so what".

This made Thomas's pupils slowly shrink, but his expression still didn't change much, but he went further, "Disney made a corresponding publicity plan, but Jack was unwilling to cooperate, he firmly believed that he should use the work to speak, which also led to the subsequent collapse of word of mouth. ”

"So, we need to avoid that ending. Of course, I'm sure our work will have a very good reputation, but there is no doubt about the importance of pre-publicity before the official release of the work. Thomas directly ignored the meaning of Lan Li's eyes and said endlessly.

"We have carefully discussed the method and content of the pre-publicity, hoping to arrange it according to the specific situation of the crew, especially according to your actual situation, and hope to find the most suitable publicity plan. Trust me, we sincerely hope that the film will be a success, and we sincerely hope that you will be able to profit from it. We tried to find a mutually beneficial campaign, and now, we've found it!"
