Chapter 663: It's better to promote Yang Ming

A luxury hotel in Yanjing, with elegant rooms.

Yang Ming, Babo, and Liu Xinsheng were talking and laughing inside.

"Manx and Mike have already gone back?" Yang Ming asked Bobble.

"Well, they flew back to the United States overnight, and it is rare for them to come this time, and the schedule is relatively tight. Bobble nodded.

"It seems that if it weren't for you, Mr. Barber, it is estimated that I would be able to invite these two heavy Hollywood stars this time, and I don't know how much effort it would take!" Yang Ming said with a sigh.

To be honest, he also thinks that he is the right step to invite Barber to join Oriental DreamWorks, otherwise with his influence with Oriental DreamWorks or Online Film Company, he can also invite heavyweight stars in Hollywood, but it will definitely cost a sky-high salary.

It will definitely not be as easy as it is now, and in a short period of time, a Hollywood star who meets Yang Ming's requirements has been invited.

"Huh. Barber smiled modestly, but did not deny Yang Ming's words.

He has been at the helm of Pan Am Entertainment for so many years, and it is relatively easy for him to invite one or two actors in Hollywood.

Liu Xinsheng couldn't help but sigh when he saw Baber's breezy temperament, although Westerners are not like Easterners, they are more subtle in the face of praise, but Baber is indeed worthy of Yang Minghua's treatment.

In the chat just now, it has been confirmed that Barber will be the CEO of Oriental DreamWorks, but at present, his focus will be on Hollywood, and Liu Xinsheng will be responsible for Oriental DreamWorks' business in Asia in the future.

It turns out that Smith of the online film company is in charge of the business of Oriental DreamWorks in the rice region, and the business in Europe still needs Barber to find the right person, but with the current strength of Oriental DreamWorks, this is not the most urgent thing.

For Oriental DreamWorks at the moment, it's about expanding and shooting more movies.

Therefore, after Barber returns to Hollywood in two days, he will look for a suitable script and shoot a movie, and in the conversation just now, he also told Yang Ming his plan.

At the beginning, it was still a low-cost shooting mode, and after a period of time, when the company has a certain popularity, it will shoot some movies with relatively high production costs.

And at present, the company has Yang Ming's promise of a blockbuster every year, which is enough to support the early development of Oriental DreamWorks in Hollywood.

Now Barber is focusing on strengthening Oriental DreamWorks' work in the distribution of films in the United States.

"Yang, the actor you selected has a good popularity in Asia, but it is not enough in the United States and Europe, otherwise when "2012" is released, it will be very unfavorable to the publicity!" Barber thought of something, and then frowned slightly.

"Hmm!" Yang Ming nodded in agreement.

Since it is a blockbuster, it must be a big production, a big star lineup, and a table that makes commercial films to the extreme.

The production cost of "2012" is up to the standard of a blockbuster, but the cast is still a bit flawed, but this cast is definitely an all-star cast in Asia.

Yang Chaowei and Zhou Meiling are both Golden Dragon Award-level actors in Asia, and their popularity and popularity are definitely not inferior to any emperor superstar.

But the popularity of their couple is a bit insufficient in the United States and Hollywood.

If it is not a very famous international superstar, it is estimated that foreigners look at the Chinese, and the Chinese look at foreigners, they basically can't tell the difference between the Chinese, and after watching a movie, the characters in it will not remember who is who.

Of course, Yang Ming was not too worried about this.

"2012" focuses on epic pictures and shocking special effects, the plot and actors are only secondary, as long as the picture can attract Western audiences, and when the word-of-mouth effect comes out, there will be basically no problem.

But if you can increase the popularity of the actors, it will be very helpful for the promotion of the movie itself.

Yang Ming wondered in his heart whether to make some plans to increase the popularity of Yang Chaowei and Zhou Meiling in the West from now on?

Just as he was thinking deeply, Liu Xinsheng seemed to have an idea on the side, and his eyes lit up and said: "Instead of trying to improve the popularity of Yang Chaowei and Zhou Meiling, it is better to increase Yang Ming's popularity in the West, he is now very popular in the minds of young people in the United States and Europe!"

To be honest, he has always remembered the scene when Yang Ming was in court at that time, there were nearly 100 Western fans and fans, who flew thousands of miles away to China to support Yang Ming!

He never thought that with Yang Ming's status at that time, he would have such a high reputation in the West.

Hearing Liu Xinsheng's idea, Barber's eyes lit up, and he suddenly came to his senses, straightened up, and said thoughtfully: "Liu is right, our young boss, the name of genius in the West, is the target that countless teenagers want to imitate. ”

"Academy Award for Best Film Music, Pop Singer, Rong in "One Ball Fame", oh yes, plus the identity of the creator of the comic "Transformers", which has been very popular in the United States recently!" Barber counted Yang Ming's advantages in this area with his fingers, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, and then he continued: "It can be said that there is nothing that our Yang can't do, and in every item, he has to do better than others, Yang, you can do anything!"

At the end, Barber couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Yang Ming couldn't help but shake his head and laugh when he heard this, but he also had to admit that if he spent a lot of effort to promote the male and female protagonists Yang Chaowei and Zhou Meiling in "2012", it may not be useful to promote his identity as a director.

Because he has become a legend in the minds of young people in the West.

In this case, Yang Ming thought for a while, was silent for a while, and said, "What if I hold a concert in Europe and the United States respectively?"

"Concert?"

Barber and Liu Xinsheng were both stunned!

"Hmm!" Yang Ming nodded confidently, "I'm going to hold a concert that makes everyone scream!"

Regarding Yang Ming's talent in music, Liu Xinsheng is the most impressed and believes in Yang Ming's strength.

Even, sometimes he has a feeling that Yang Ming's talent in music is stronger than his talent in film.

However, Barber didn't know anything about Yang Ming before, and when he heard Yang Ming's mention, he couldn't help but show a hesitant look, he has been in Hollywood for so many years, and he is naturally very clear about what it means for a star to hold a concert.

He was afraid that Yang Ming's concert would backfire when the time came, not only did it not play a role in promoting "2012", but also had a negative impact on "2012" because of the failure of the concert.

Seeing Bobble's entanglement, Liu Xinsheng said to him with a smile: "Mr. Bobble, don't worry, Yang Ming's talent in music is beyond doubt, and he already has several classic English songs!"
