Chapter 92: Warm-up begins
In the hustle and bustle, the warm-up officially began!
In fact, before this, the promotion of the film has quietly kicked off, especially the fact that Leila and Cooper bet with a box office of 100 million, and the fact that the loser kissed the ass of a donkey in front of the whole country made many people who were originally not interested in movies know that there is a movie that will be released on Halloween.
Many fans of Witch Witch have become supporters of Leila, who were able to contribute more than $300 million at the box office, and no one doubts that they will continue to create unpredictable energy.
But the premise is that the new movie must be exciting enough, and it is simply unrealistic to want loyal fans with just one movie. According to Lyra's expectations, when the "S Chainsaw" and "Death is Coming" series are created, it is estimated that a group of truly loyal fans will be cultivated.
S's warm-up included more details and pictures on the official website, and several of the main actors began to give interviews to the media to tell what they could without revealing the plot, including things about Leila and interesting things that happened to the crew and filming.
The audience is very interested in the matter of S, they have known about this work since a few months ago, some people say it is good, some people say it is bad, they want to know whether the movie is good or bad, whether it can reach a box office of 100 million, whether it is another magic miracle to become a nineteen-year-old genius director or a tragic Battle of Waterloo. These are all things that the audience desperately wants to know.
Kella is even more low-key than other low-key directors, except for the occasional interview with the "Entertainment Family", even the gossip tabloids rarely appear in her. This makes many people who are interested in her and want to know more about her have no choice but to look for news about her everywhere.
So the actors who were arranged to be interviewed from all walks of life, in addition to how they were discovered by the director, encountered the most questions, that is, various questions about the young director. What are her preferences, does she have a boyfriend or girlfriend, what are her usual leisure activities, and does she be fierce when she is making movies...... And so on and so forth, and the actors were so angry that they couldn't laugh or cry. Is it to interview them, or to interview the director?
It was also the first time they knew that there was still such a high interest in directors outside.
"Miss Moran, there are two high-impact talk shows that I would like you to attend. Demi reported to Leila as usual when she arrived at the office early in the morning. "There are also magazines that want to interview you. These include three entertainment magazines as well as two fashion magazines. ”
Leila replied without looking up, "Push it all off, saying I don't have time." ”
"Okay. Demi made a note on her notepad and secretly screamed pity. It was a talk show with tens of millions of viewers in each episode, and if she could participate, she would be willing to give her money! But her boss quit every time she didn't want to.
"Are fashion magazines pushing back?" she confirmed. The boss of the entertainment industry has hardly participated in the interview, so it is not surprising that he was rejected. But what about fashion magazines, and why do foreign fashion magazines want to interview their bosses?
Not a person in the fashion industry, it's hard to understand Leila's reputation in that circle. Even a young beauty-lover like Demi, who is interested in fashion, doesn't know what a witch photographer with magic can create.
The people who will find the Immortal Bird Company to send out invitations are some people who are lacking in means, and the really powerful and well-informed ones have already communicated with Janet, who doesn't know that Bobury is lucky enough to meet Janet and let Leila help them shoot those promotional photos.
"Push it all off, I don't have time to deal with that now. Leila continued to bury her head on the table, writing something.
I haven't had time before, have I?, Demi smiled bitterly, and still crossed those invitations off the notepad as she said.
As if the work at hand was over, Leila looked up and asked, "What's going on with Cooper?" I don't think I've heard from him for a long time. "Usually someone reports to her whenever there's any movement, but why hasn't there been any movement lately?
This is not good, she still needs him to "help" herself to continue to stir up the topic.
Demi thought for a moment, "I really haven't received any news from that side recently, do you need me to investigate?"
Layla nodded, "Let's go investigate." I want to know what he's been doing recently and what he's going to do in the future. ”
"Okay. Is there anything else I need to do?"
"No, you go get busy. Layla nodded at her.
It wasn't until Demi went out that she put her eyes back on the table. A piece of paper was laid on the table, on which several movie categories were written in scribbled Chinese - comedy, romance, action, science fiction and so on.
However, the first few phrases were heavily crossed out, and then a few circles were drawn on the two options of horror and crime, and a question mark was placed next to the song and dance film.
What she was thinking about at the moment was the next film she was going to make.
After the release of S, she will start preparing for the shooting of the next movie. After calculating the company's background at this time, it is obviously not possible to shoot money-burning special effects blockbusters such as action movies and science fiction films. She still prefers small-budget movies, and she has an indescribable sense of accomplishment with small and broad.
Small-budget movies generally have a larger audience for comedy and romance, but Leila feels that she is not a person with many humorous cells, and even if she knows what comedy will be more popular in the future, she feels that she will not be able to shoot the desired effect.
Not to mention romance films, it is a natural comedy material for her to be filmed by someone who has never been in love in her life.
After thinking about it, she finally focused on the last few items.
Horror movies are her favorite, and with the accumulation of three films, she is completely familiar with filming. The cost of a crime film can also be compressed to a very low level, and if the script is good, it can even shoot some depth that can break into the Oscars. If she wants to win that award, the best direction is crime films.
The last one is a song and dance film. In fact, in the current film industry, song and dance films are by no means a suitable choice. It's been a long time since a song and dance film that can be shown on the big screen, and even if there is, it's almost a smash one, and now no film company is even willing to try in this direction.
The main reason why Leila took out this genre alone is that she thinks of the Moulin Rouge in 2001, Chicago in 2004, and Disney's original TV movie Song and Dance Youth. The first two won a lot of awards at the Oscars, and the latter made two sequels in a row. It can be seen that the revue is not without a market, but there is no good script.
