Chapter 143: Propaganda

In mid-August, "Batman" finished filming the last fight scene and officially finished.

After five months of filming and preparation, Leicester hosted a finale dinner at Hilton to comfort the crew and actors.

The promotion of "Batman", Bird Pictures and Warner Bros. have been doing it, and the film was completed, and Warner Bros. put the interview in the Hilton Hotel where the finale banquet was held.

Jack Nicholson, Michael Keaton and Brooke Shields will all appear for interviews with reporters under Peter Cooper's arrangement, and Lester and Bruce Willis, who starred as a police detective in "Batman", will also be interviewed.

The warm-up before the start of filming of "Batman" was very important to the senior management of Warner Bros., and in terms of publicity, resources were placed on Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson.

Although Brooke Ace also starred in "Batman", Warner Bros. has very few resources under her.

After all, Batman Bruce Wayne and the Joker are wonderful characters in "Batman", and they have been controversial since before filming began.

After Brooke Shield's makeup photos were released, the controversy over her jade image disappeared, but it was the Joker played by Jack Nicholson and Batman Bruce Wayne played by Michael Keaton that attracted the curiosity of many people, and the Warner Bros. survey, the topic of the two was the most discussed.

For this reason, Warner Bros. released a photo of Jack Nicholson's clown makeup at the interview to attract everyone's attention.

In the Warner Bros. conference room, before the interview began, Peter Cooper summoned Michael Keaton, Brooke Shields, Lester and others to discuss things.

Peter Cooper looked at Michael Keaton and Brooke Shields with an inquiring opinion: "Both, I hope you two can appear in front of the media as a fake couple, can you agree?" ”

Michael Keaton and Brooke Ace are both staring at their agents.

Several people heard that Peter Cooper wanted to use the relationship between the two to hype up and attract everyone's attention to "Batman".

Publicity and hype have always existed in the entertainment industry, and in Hollywood, it is one of the means of publicity.

Hearing Peter Cooper's words, Lester didn't interrupt him, quietly waited for them to make a statement, whether they agreed or not, he would not force the two of them.

Lester, who is a two-life person, has already figured out the unspoken rules behind the entertainment industry and the all-encompassing propaganda methods.

Brooke Xiaosi communicated with her agent, and subconsciously looked at Leicester, seeing that his face was flat, just waiting for their reply, "It seems that Peter Cooper discussed it with Director Lestrore." ”

Brooke Xiaosi, who has been in Hollywood for a long time, knows in her heart that if she doesn't seize the opportunity, she may be buried in a group of jade stars, thinking so, she also said to Peter Cooper: "I agree, it just depends on what Mr. Michael Keaton thinks." ”

Michael Keaton was surprised to see Brooke Shields agree so easily, and he had already negotiated with his agent.

In the face of the publicity hype that Peter Cooper said, Michael Keaton felt that it was too normal and not a bad thing, and nodded in agreement, "I also agreed, it's just propaganda." ”

"The car is already outside, so let's go!" Peter Cooper saw that several people had agreed to one of their promotional plans, so he led them out of Warner Bros. and got into the two cars outside the card.

Because Michael Keaton and Brooke Kiss both agreed to attend the promotion as a fake couple, the two of them sat in the same car at the same time, and Lester and Peter Cooper each sat in the other prepared car.

The three cars arrived outside the Hilton at different times, so that reporters' eyes would not be focused on someone.

Peter Cooper arranged for everyone to get off the bus, with Michael Keaton and Brooke Ace getting out of the car first.

When the two walked into the Hilton Hotel, the waiting reporters' eyes lit up and flashed with gossip.

Michael Keaton and Brooke Shields walked into their sight holding hands with sweet smiles, and the two smiled and waved to the reporters.

Both of them are one of the leading actors of "Batman", and when the others have not arrived, they take pictures of the two of them.

Under the obstruction of the staff, the reporters knew that they could only conduct interviews when they were all there, but it did not prevent them from gossiping about Michael Keaton and Brooke Smalls, and some reporters had already written out their hearts and minds.

After the two walked in, Jack Nicholson walked in from the outside, causing some reporters to seep.

The clown's makeup photo is directly pasted on the interview table, Jack Nicholson is not only an Oscar winner, but also a superstar, which naturally makes reporters enthusiastic, and some reporters even took out the microphone to try to cross the staff's block to come to the interview, but Jack Nicholson directly refused.

Lester and Peter Cooper walked in, and they saw reporters who were a little out of control.

"Looks like Jack Nicholson is quite attractive. ”

Lester quipped to Peter Cooper;

"After all, it's an Oscar. Peter Cooper nodded, then added, "You make me quite incomprehensible." ”

Lester was stunned, shrugged his shoulders, and walked forward quickly with a smile on his face.

"Odd boy, but also a genius. Peter Cooper looked at Lester, who was photographed by reporters, and muttered to himself.

After more than four months of cooperation with Leicester, Peter Cooper witnessed Lester's filming techniques and handling crew disputes on the set.

Looking at Lester's 20-year-old age, Peter Cooper even had the illusion that he was not facing a child, but a mature adult man.

But Peter Cooper is very sure in his heart that the other party is indeed a 20-year-old young director, and he is also one of the directors with commercial potential.

The difference is that when the other party directed "Batman", he greatly appreciated the dark style he understood, which made Peter Cooper see the means of literary films in it.

Thinking of literary films, Peter Cooper also thought of Lester's "The Biography of Chaplin", he went to see it and found that it was very good, but it was a failure at the box office, so that reporters used this as an excuse to report that Lester did not understand literary films, and he said "pity" in his heart, and walked into the interview desk.

At this time, all the main creators of "Batman" arrived, and at Lester's signal, the staff let the reporters go.

The group of reporters was divided into four groups and interviewed everyone on stage, especially Jack Nicholson, who gathered the most reporters.

It seems that because Michael Keaton and Brooke Kiss came in hand to cause the gossip of reporters, there are more reporters gathered around the two than on Lester's side.

Both have been taught by interviews and agents and know how to answer reporters' questions.
