Chapter 653: Shabby Press Conference

In the previous life, as the Chinese film market became bigger and bigger, Hollywood also paid more attention to the Chinese film market.

Therefore, in order to please the mainland audience, Chinese elements have been added to the plot and actors.

The scene in "Transformers 4" that travels from Hong Kong to Wulong, China at once is really powerless to complain, and this movie is also a blockbuster with the most Chinese elements, even to the point of being unbearable.

Although this sequel is popular at the box office, "Transformers 4" has a poor reputation, and Chinese and American audiences have received a flood of bad reviews. The American media even analyzed in an article: "A large number of Chinese scenes, Chinese actors, and Chinese elements (or the placement of Chinese advertisements) are the reasons for the success of this film in China." ”

At least a third of the scenes in this movie are about "China"!

The film not only has Chinese actors Li Bingbing, Han Geng, and Zou Shiming, but also a large number of scenes filmed in Beijing, Guangzhou, Chongqing, Hong Kong and other places. Watching familiar Chinese actors in Hollywood blockbusters, communicating in Chinese on familiar turf, is another enjoyment in addition to the cool transformation of Transformers.

In addition, there are a number of brand placements in "Change 4" that are familiar to Chinese audiences, such as Pangu Daguan, Zhou Heiya, Shuhua Milk and other brands, which also make Chinese audiences feel novel. Although many viewers will complain about the implantation method after watching the movie, no matter whether it is good or bad, it always attracts more audiences to watch the movie.

"Transformers 4" has a large number of Chinese elements, which makes the acceptance of Cheng dΓΉ by domestic audiences unprecedented.

In Yang Ming's reflection, in the previous life, this Hollywood blockbuster, it can be said that in order to please mainland audiences, adding Chinese elements has reached the point of doing everything.

The end result is that the box office is red and the reputation is not good!

Yang Ming doesn't want to be in "2012" in this life, just like "Transformers 4" in his previous life, just to please the audience in the United States, he adds various local elements regardless of logic.

In doing so, it may be a satisfying box office, but it is likely to have a poor reputation.

But you can't make any changes at all, that's a bit overkill, but it can't be as exaggerated as "Change 4" in the previous life.

There are still some important roles in "2012" that can be played by Hollywood actors.

It's just that Yang Ming can only be determined after carefully revising the script again.

However, the general direction has been determined, the male and female number one is still Yang Chaowei and Zhou Meiling, and the background of the script is in Huaxia!

This is non-negotiable.

Hearing Yang Ming's decision, Barber didn't say much after thinking about it for a while, after all, this young man who had just become his boss wanted to open the Hollywood film market in this mode, and he could only know what the effect would be after being verified by the market.

Regarding Yang Ming's "One Ball Fame", which was previously popular in the United States, Barber does not think that this is a normal phenomenon.

After the global box office of "Deep Sea Tracking" was severely humiliated by Yang Ming's film, he also studied this movie seriously.

Although this is a classic sports inspirational movie, if it happened to meet the World Cup, the box office number of this movie would definitely not reach such a high height.

It's all just coincidence and luck, and you can't generalize about it.

Yang Ming chatted with Barber for a while, because there was a press conference in the afternoon, and he invited Barber and the company's senior management to the hotel to get closer to everyone.

At the same time, Smith also sent invitations to many large entertainment media in Hollywood, announcing that the company would hold a press conference.

It's just that there are very few applicants.

Because there really isn't anything memorable about Connected Pictures in Hollywood.

"The chairman, Mr. Barber, there are only eight media outlets confirmed to come to the company's press conference. ”

At half past two in the afternoon, Smith walked in with a look of self-reproach and shame and said to Yang Ming and Barber.

No wonder he was so ashamed, the press conference attended by only 8 media outlets was so shabby that it couldn't even be considered a press conference.

However, the status of the online film company in the circle is like this!

"Mr. Bobble, it looks like you're going to the most deserted press conference you've ever had. After Yang Ming heard Smith's report, he couldn't help but smile and joke with Barber.

It was as if he was not affected by such a shabby number of media who came at all, and he was still there talking and laughing with Bobble.

Seeing Yang Ming's relaxed appearance, Smith, who was originally very self-blaming and ashamed, couldn't help but feel relieved, and his nervous mood when he just came in was much lighter.

When Barber saw that Yang Ming heard the news, he still looked calm and quiet, and secretly praised his new boss's city government in his heart, which was definitely a material for doing great things.

"I believe that the second press conference will not be so crowded!" said Bobble with a relaxed and confident face.

In this regard, both Barber and Yang Ming are full of confidence.

After all, no media in the press conference knew about the famous Hollywood gold pointer, and Barber, the former general manager of Pan American Entertainment, would choose to join a third-tier film company.

I believe that if the outside media learns of this news in advance, they will definitely flock to it and break the threshold of the company.

It's just that after Yang Ming and Barber discussed, they both decided that this press conference would not be exposed in advance, after all, the company had just been acquired, and Barber had just come to the company, and both parties were very unfamiliar, so it was better to wait until Barber was familiar with the company.

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

Several reporters came to the online film company and sat at the press conference site with a small temporary arrangement, which was not so empty.

At this time, Smith walked to the microphone in front of him with a press release, looked at several reporters in the audience, and felt extremely complicated in his heart, this is the gap.

All those Hollywood giants, the news of the big fart will be enthusiastically chased by countless media, which press conference is not held in a famous luxury hotel?

It's as shabby as the online film company, just arranging a simple scene in the company can be regarded as a press conference.

However, Smith believes that this qiΔ“ will all change after today.

Because the company was acquired.

Before starting, Smith couldn't help but count the reporters on the scene, 6!

There are 2 reporters who haven't come yet, but he doesn't think that these reporters are late in traffic jams or anything, and he can even conclude that there are 2 reporters from entertainment media who must have released their pigeons, and they will definitely not come again.

This is the sorrow of the small company, but Smith is secretly ruthless in his heart, and has already blacklisted the two media reporters who released his pigeons.

Don't try to get a piece of news from him in the future.

"Guys, let's get started, no wait!" Smith said decisively as he tapped the microphone.

Several reporters in the audience didn't care when they heard Smith's words, they all looked at Smith listlessly, if it weren't for the fact that the task of interviewing a large company had been done by someone else, they really had nothing to do, and it was impossible to agree to Smith to come over to participate in such a shabby press conference.

So, none of the reporters took Smith's words to heart.

There were even two reporters who exchanged words after Smith spoke, ignoring the quiet order of the scene.

Smith didn't seem to see the two reporters who were still talking to each other, and said to himself: "The board of directors of Wired has reached an agreement to sell all its shares, and the company was officially acquired yesterday, and the company will continue to develop in Hollywood under the new name of Oriental DreamWorks." ”

Wired was actually acquired?

Several reporters in the audience were a little surprised when they heard the news, but they didn't take it to heart, this is not big news.

Because in Hollywood, every day companies go out of business or are acquired, and as for online studios being acquired, this is really a normal thing for them.

It's just that, I don't know why, the two reporters in the audience always feel that the name of 'Oriental DreamWorks' sounds, how can it be so familiar?

Suddenly, a reporter suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but stand up in surprise and asked: "Could it be that the online company was acquired by a film company in Huaxia? Is it the film company that made "One Ball to Fame"?"

"I think so. Smith didn't hide anything, and nodded directly in acknowledgement.

- Hmmm

There were a total of six reporters in the audience, and when they heard the confirmation, they couldn't help but look at Smith in unison.

"One Goal to Fame" is the most popular movie during the World Cup, there is no one, even in the football desert of the United States, many people have seen this movie, and Yang Ming, as a self-directed and self-acting, is the focus of many entertainment media.

"Is it that Huaxia's Yang has acquired the company?" the reporter asked anxiously.

To be honest, for them reporters, what Oriental DreamWorks is not DreamWorks, there is no need to report at all, but it is different to replace Yang Ming, who has just swept the box office in the United States.

"Let's invite Yang from Huaxia to answer some of your questions!" Smith said.

When several reporters saw Yang Ming walk in, everyone immediately became highly focused, and they had completely different attitudes from the previous carelessness.

Although Yang Ming is not from the United States, his popularity in Hollywood is only no different from those newcomers who became popular overnight.

But at least it's better than no news coverage!

Especially about Pan American Entertainment's resigned Barber being photographed at dinner, it is even more uproarious, and these reporters still remember it vividly!

"May I ask Mr. Yang, why did you choose to buy a Hollywood film company? Does it mean that the focus of your career will shift to the United States in the future?"

"Mr. Yang, what made you buy the United Film Company in the United States?"

"I'd like to ask about the news about you having dinner with Bobble not long ago, can you tell us a little bit about what you and Mr. Bobble were talking about......?"

Although there are relatively few reporters, they have more questions, and in a short period of time, they have asked a lot of questions one after another, especially the topic of Barber, who had a relationship with Yang Ming not long ago, which is a question that several reporters present are very concerned about.

――――

I originally wanted to have a small outbreak today, but when I went back to my hometown, I was delayed, and I am going to have a small outbreak tomorrow, so everyone has a psychological preparation!
