Chapter 142 "2012" trailer
Lin Feng saw that Zhang Kaile had made a special effects shot in "2012", and he was finally relieved, and it was finally done!
To be honest, what he is most afraid of is that because of the difference in the world and time, Zhang Kaile will not be able to do what he wants.
But now seeing the special effects in front of him, Lin Feng couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that in this world, although the development of Chinese films is not very smooth like in the previous life, it is not much inferior to Hollywood in terms of technology.
And even in some ways, it's a cut above the other.
The footage in front of you is proof of this.
"Perfect, now my heart has finally let go." Lin Feng said to Zhang Kaile with a hearty smile.
"If you don't make it again, I guess we won't have the face to see you, Mr. Lin, it's too embarrassing!" Zhang Kaile also smiled easily.
In less than half a year, he basically ate and lived in the company, and the picture he made now finally met the requirements that Lin Feng had asked him before.
The sky is falling apart, the tsunami abyss, the city is flooded, etc., all the images that could only be imagined in his mind before, and now he and all the technicians are finally able to realize it on the screen.
"It's just that if we don't do it again, we'll be embarrassed to receive this salary."
At this time, the other technicians in the room heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but laugh and laugh at themselves.
Hearing the technician's joke, the others couldn't help but laugh too.
Although everyone has been under tremendous pressure for the past six months, when they finally come up with a satisfactory work, this pressure suddenly turns into an endless sense of accomplishment and fills everyone's heart.
"Haha, not much to say, I believe that this month's bonus will not disappoint everyone by then." Lin Feng looked at every technician who basically had dark circles under his eyes and said sincerely.
As soon as Lin Feng said this, everyone couldn't help but cheer, at this time, the charm of money was the most rewarding satisfaction for everyone.
Zhang Kaile saw everyone cheering around him, and a faint smile appeared on his face, at this moment, he finally admitted that it was a correct decision for him to transfer the company to Lin Feng.
He is really not suitable to be the leader of the music and shadow numbers.
Because he is obsessed with the research and development of technology, he often neglects the prospects and direction of special effects technology in today's film industry, and the company's usual trivial matters make him worry even more.
Now it seems that Lin Feng has done a very good job.
Especially the development direction of special effects technology revealed to him by this young man in the past two months, which made him gain a lot.
"I believe that when the trailer of "2012" comes out, the world will be shocked!" Zhang Kaile said confidently.
Lin Feng also nodded when he heard this, he was going to start the post-production of "2012|" when he went back, edited out the finished film, and cut a few different versions of the trailer.
What teasers, carnival teasers, final trailers, etc., all get it all over again, and you must spread the influence of "2012" to the maximum.
"Do you have any plans for the future?"
Zhang Kaile waved his hand to signal that everyone could disperse, except for the necessary left-behind personnel, all the other personnel had a week off for a week, and he was ready to sort out the next Leying Digital research and development plan in the next two days.
When Lin Feng heard Zhang Kaile's words, he was prepared, and took out a comic book from the bag he was carrying! "Look at this!"
"Oh?" Zhang Kaile saw the pictorial in Lin Feng's hand, hesitated, and took the cartoon with curiosity. "Transformers?"
"Not bad!" Lin Feng nodded.
"Our company has already bought the copyright of this comic?" Zhang Kaile looked at Lin Feng with a little surprise.
As a member of the entertainment industry, although he is engaged in technology, this does not mean that Zhang Kaile does not understand the popular elements of the current market at all, especially comics, which he is more concerned about.
After all, because there are many characters in the special effects, they are all designed out of thin air, which makes them often maintain the way of reading comics to find inspiration.
And "Transformers" can be said to be the most popular comic book at the moment.
Whether it is at home or abroad, when this comic was first launched, the response was mediocre, but who knows, it suddenly became popular in a short period of time, and it was simply crazy to sell, becoming the third in the world's single book sales list this year.
It is estimated that as time goes by, the fans of this manga will also increase, and it is very likely that it will win the first position by next year.
Zhang Kaile never thought that Lin Feng's next plan was to ask him to do special effects for this comic.
You must know that now, whether it is at home or abroad, the film adaptation rights of the comic "Transformers" have long been eyed by the tiger, and those giants are staring at this piece of fat, no matter how much it costs, they will also acquire the copyright of this comic.
Could it be that the copyright of the comic "Transformers" is in the hands of Oriental DreamWorks?
Seeing Zhang Kaile's questioning eyes, Lin Feng nodded with a smile and said, "Well, in fact, this comic is published by the comic club under the group!" β
Lin Feng didn't reveal the inside story of this comic book coming from his own hands, after all, he didn't want to make himself too demonic.
Hearing Lin Feng's affirmative words, Zhang Kaile was stunned at first, and then couldn't help laughing excitedly, he really didn't expect that "Transformers" was published by his own company, which means that the film adaptation right of this comic is in the hands of the company.
It's amazing.
Moreover, Zhang Kaile did not hear a trace of news about the purchase of the film adaptation rights of "Transformers" in the entertainment industry.
I see.
However, he quickly calmed down, he had read this comic from beginning to end, and I have to say that the creative decision of this comic is amazing, it is simply eye-catching.
At that time, when he was reading this comic, he had already begun to think about how to realize this comic if it was made into a movie, and how to do special effects, which was completely a professional problem.
"I guess it's a bit difficult!" Zhang Kaile said with a slight frown.
The special effects in "2012" and "Transformers" are completely two different types, and even the workload is larger than that of "2012"!
"I believe in Zhang Gong!" Lin Feng said firmly.
Zhang Kaile felt Lin Feng's belief in himself, he didn't shirk it, thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "It's not a big problem, and now the technical team has been honed by the movie "2012", I believe it will be very fast when the time comes." β
"Hmm!" Lin Feng saw Zhang Kaile's confident appearance, and he also let go of his heart, but he seemed to remember something, and continued: "By the way, Zhang Gong, how is the company in animation?" β
"Anime? Mr. Lin, you don't want to make cartoons, right? Then I want to persuade you, cartoons are basically a debt thing, even if they can sell good cartoons, they can only be sold to TV stations, and the income is very small, as for cartoons and movies, it seems that there are few that can make money. Zhang Kaile said earnestly.
Seeing Zhang Kaile's expression, Lin Feng understood why the other party had such a demeanor.
In this life, compared with the previous life, the film industry is naturally unrecognizable, but to say that what surprised Lin Feng the most was the decline of the animation industry in this life.
And this kind of decline, not only in China, but also in the United States.
Because in the history of Hollywood in the United States, there has never been a company like Dinis at all.
Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Pooh, "Toy Story", "Wall-E the Robot", "Frozen", whether it is these classic animated screen images or those classic animated movies, in this world, Lin Feng has never heard of it.
Compared to the anime of the previous life, the anime of this life is quite backward.
It's not difficult to understand that Lin Feng filmed a "Saint Seiya" for Phoenix TV will become like that, not to mention China and Southeast Asia now, even the United States and Europe also introduced this cartoon through purchase, which had a great response.
It's not that no one has ever made an animated film, but in the history of animated films, it's simply a pit, who jumps and who dies.
"Zhang Gong, don't worry, I won't focus on animated movies, but if "Transformers" is just changed into a movie, then the value of this comic will be a bit of a pity!" Lin Feng naturally understood Zhang Kaile's worries very well, so he opened his mouth to explain.
But after he finished speaking, he continued: "So, this time the transformation of "Transformers" into an animation and a movie can be carried out together, but compared to the change of the movie, the change of the animation is relatively simple! β
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Zhang Kaile breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that Lin Feng would not be able to think of engaging in cartoon films, even if he had always been stubborn and unwilling to give up, he never dared to have the slightest idea about cartoon films.
It's a bottomless pit, and a bottomless pit that can't be filled.
But then Lin Feng's words jumped him down.
"Still, I'm going to make an animated film every year!"
Hearing this, Zhang Kaile was almost scared to death by Lin Feng, and when he said that the young boss still had to jump into the pit, at this time, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, and said: "Lin Feng, you don't really want to make an animated movie, do you?" A well-made animated film can't be made at all if it doesn't have fifty or sixty million, and the audience is very special, and the box office market is very limited. β
Seeing Zhang Kaile's anxious appearance, Lin Feng touched his nose, to be honest, no one knows more than him about animated movies, as long as they are filmed, the money they make will not be worse than those blockbusters, and sometimes it is even like robbing money.
In the previous life, when every Disney animated movie came out, it was highly anticipated, and there was never such a thing as a box office loss.
Of course, this is also because Disney has long erected the image of Disney in everyone's minds.
But Lin Feng believes that he can sit to the level of Disney in this life, and the animated film is simply a blank, unlike the traditional film market, where the competition is very fierce.
It can be said that if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to make a good cartoon and the investment was too huge, his first film might have really chosen the genre of animation at that time.
"Don't worry, Zhang Gong, with my strength, there will be no bad consequences at all when I make one or two cartoons, I'm just trying to see if this road is possible." Lin Feng comforted Zhang Kaile, almost didn't pat his chest, saying that he lacked everything, but he was not short of money.
Losing one or two, he Lin Feng still lost money.
It was only at this time that Zhang Kaile remembered Lin Feng's considerable net worth, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seemed that he was worrying blindly.
With Lin Feng's net worth of more than 10 billion, even if he loses 100 million a year, he will lose a hundred years, what is there to worry about.
Subsequently, Zhang Kaile thought about it seriously, but still agreed with Lin Feng's opinion, and now began to make a special group in his team to make animated films for Lin Feng.
In order to make Lin Feng's loss even less, Zhang Kaile personally selected a few people and gave the list to Lin Feng.
After handling everything, Lin Feng said goodbye and left, and began to edit the trailer.
With about a month to go until its release, it's time to release the trailer for "2012"!
Two days later.
As soon as many netizens opened the popcorn network today, ready to see what new TV series were available today, all of them found that an eye-catching banner ad appeared on the homepage.
The end of the world is coming!
Director: Lin Feng
Starring: Lin Chaowei
Zhou Meiling
Manx
When everyone clicked in and found that it was the trailer of "2012", everyone was excited.
"Oh my God, Lin Da's new film is about to be released?"
"After waiting for so many days, I finally saw Lin Da release the trailer of "2012"!"
"Come on, come and see, the trailer for "2012" is out!"
The trailer for "2012" was not only on Popcorn.com, but also on one or two other portals.
Countless netizens clicked on the trailer with anticipation and curiosity.
The signs of the disaster flashed one by one, followed by the disaster, the sky collapsed, the sea flooded the city, the huge waves were monstrous, and the scene of Lin Chaowei driving and running away with his family in the city where the disaster came, made all netizens look stupid!
Earthquakes, ground cracks, abysses, collapsed buildings, broken interchanges, and apocalyptic scenes everywhere left everyone stunned.
It's so real!
This scene is so spectacular!
Especially when the protagonist flees by car, avoiding all kinds of incredible dangers, it is even more immediate, which makes people dare not breathe a sigh of relief.
It's so exciting!
After the short trailer was played, everyone who watched it suddenly let out a piercing scream, they were all stimulated by this short trailer, and the apocalyptic scene they had just seen kept coming to their minds, which was too realistic.
And the trailer released by Lin Feng this time is not long, only about 1 minute, which can be said to have whetted everyone's appetite, making everyone who watches this trailer want to stop and can't wait to watch it in one go.
But it's an impossible thing.
Not long after the trailer of "2012" was released, it caused a strong reaction on the same day, and major online forums were full of topics about discussing the film.
It can be said that just a trailer has made the expectation index of this movie rise rapidly, surpassing all movies, and becoming the most anticipated and wanted movie for the audience during the Spring Festival, there is no one!
At the same time, the United States and Europe, under the arrangement of Lin Feng and Barber, also released the trailer of "2012", just like in China, which instantly caused a sensation and attention.
Everyone was fascinated by this so-called disaster movie!
I also whetted my appetite!
Oriental DreamWorks.
Lin Feng asked the people below to make two cups of tea to entertain Xavier, and when this cup of tea was drunk, after listening to Xavier's explanation, he also knew what was going on.
To be honest, he really didn't expect that the princes and princesses of the British royal family, these two proud sons of the sky, would be his loyal fans.
It's no wonder that on the eve of his concert in New York last time, he was upset about himself and targeted the Hollywood star on Twitter.
I see.
At that time, Prince Harry and Princess Charlotte also went to see his concert at the National Concert Hall in London, and they already loved Lin Feng's English songs very much, so they completely adored him at once.
Lin Feng thought of these two princes and princesses who spared no effort to support him on Twitter, and couldn't help but be grateful to these two fans with extraordinary status.
He seriously thought about his next work plan, and then said to Xavier sincerely: "Please also convey your gratitude to Prince Harry and Princess Charlotte, thank you for their love for me, and for the invitation of the prince and princess, I think there should be no problem, come over at any time." β
Now his main job is to do a good job of publicity for the release of "2012", and he happened to go to Europe recently to cooperate with the theater to take the main crew members to show up to promote it.
Just taking this opportunity, he went to thank the two princes and princesses of the British royal family in person.
After all, the fans of these two heavyweight classes have spent a lot of effort to support themselves.
"Then I'll arrange a suitable time for the prince and princess to send you a formal invitation when I get back." Xavier said politely.
is worthy of being the housekeeper of the British royal family, and his behavior has the unique gentleman of Western aristocracy, but it also makes Lin Feng feel that the other party is cumbersome in doing things at a glance.
Aristocrats are really not something that ordinary people can do.
After saying this, Xavier suddenly sighed with emotion: "I think Charlotte will be very happy to hear the news that Mr. Lin promised you!" β
Not only is he happy, he is estimated to be crazy with joy, but Lin Feng didn't know the specific situation, he just coughed lightly to express his blessing to Princess Charlotte.
After getting the accurate information, Xavier got up and left, he had to wait to report the situation to the royal family, and after getting permission, he would immediately arrange a suitable time to send a formal invitation to Lin Feng.
"Alas, polite pedantry."
Lin Feng shook his head and thought secretly in his heart, but he still chose to go over, whenever he thought of Prince Harry and Princess Charlotte for their support on Twitter, his heart did not swell with gratitude.
He is a person who has kindness and revenge.
One of them, a princess, said the two words on Twitter at that time, he still remembers it vividly, and he naturally has a good impression of these two royal pride in his heart.
So, when he heard that Princess Charlotte wanted to invite him over as a guest, he didn't think long before he immediately agreed.
It looks like he's going to fly to England again in a few days.
The release of the trailer of "2012" officially means the official start of the film's promotional work, in addition to the trailer, various promotions have also begun.
Now Lin Feng is in full swing in China, especially Lin Feng's concert in New York, which stunned dozens of foreigners, and when the news came back to China, it immediately caused countless people to be shocked and excited.
In addition to his previous three blockbuster movies, this "2012", which claims to have a production cost of more than 500 million yuan, has always attracted everyone's attention.
And after the trailer came out at this moment, everyone's appetite was even more satisfied.
Produced by Lin Feng, it must be a classic!
This sentence is not for fun, whether it is music or movies, all Lin Feng's works are basically classics in the industry.
It can be said that the entire East Asian Greater Chinese Cultural Circle is Lin Feng's home field, and he is an unshakable idol in the hearts of countless young people, an absolute idol, and there is no one.
Especially when Lin Feng's self-made experience is combined with his achievements in the entertainment industry, he is not a simple star idol, but a national idol.
Even Oriental DreamWorks has not really made any efforts, just released the trailer of "2012", and the entire countries in the Greater East Asian Greater Chinese Cultural Circle are like boiling water, boiling.
Faced with this situation, Liu Xinsheng was stunned for a long time, and then shouted frantically.
Liu Xinsheng, who has been in the entertainment industry for many years, can no longer know what this situation means?
Lin Feng's popularity in the local area is already enough to be compared with those old emperor superstars.
They Oriental DreamWorks finally has a superstar of their own, and he is also their boss, how can this not make Liu Xinsheng, who watched Lin Feng grow up step by step, felt both relieved and full of a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
With the cooperation of cinema companies in East Asian countries, the publicity work of "2012" has been very smooth, especially as soon as the cast is revealed, it has already attracted the attention of countless fans.
Lin Chaowei, Zhou Meiling, this is a Golden Dragon Award-level superstar for husband and wife.
Lin Feng, needless to say, is the most popular demon genius at the moment.
Manx, Hollywood A-list superstar.
The other supporting roles are not unknown in the Chinese entertainment industry.
When Oriental DreamWorks announced the cast of "2012", many media joked: "Oriental DreamWorks finally does not belong to other blockbusters in terms of cast this time!" β
Lin Feng's first three movies, the cast was really shabby, and Lin Feng's popularity at that time was not as hot as it is now.
So much so that it is always taken out to make fun of it.
However, now this time, "2012" is enough to crush other movies of the same schedule just by this cast, which is called a blockbuster.
Especially coupled with the special effects shots in the trailer that stunned everyone.
This blockbuster is definitely a bargain.
Just when Oriental DreamWorks launched the promotion plan of "2012" in a hurry around the world, many media also looked at another blockbuster "Defend the Earth".
This movie jointly produced by the two giants of Hollywood and the Chinese entertainment industry, how come it is that it is still nowhere to be seen!
"2012", which is regarded as a rival, not only released a trailer, but also has begun to make various preparations for the pre-screening publicity, and it is really surprising that "Defend the Earth" has not moved at all.
Could something have happened? Or is the film still finished?
Or are you scared?
This is the perception that there is not much in the market.
Whether it is rice country or Huaxia, few people will think that Pan American Entertainment and Zhonghuang Entertainment are combined, will they still be afraid of the young company Oriental DreamWorks?
In order to show his sincerity, Lin Feng personally sent the other party to the airport after discussing the date of going to the British royal family with Xavier.
When he came back from the airport, Liu Xinsheng excitedly pushed open the door and said:
"There's news from Emperor Entertainment."
The magic capital of China, Oriental Pearl Cinema is a relatively famous cinema in China.
Whether it is the hardware facilities or the geographical location, it is incomparable to other cinemas in China.
At this time, Luo Tianwen was in the specially arranged hall of the Oriental Pearl Cinema and was being interviewed by several reporters.
On the advertising background board behind him, it is the promotional poster of "Defend the Earth", but the most conspicuous starring actor is not Luo Tianwen, but a famous superstar from Hollywood.
Many reporters looked at this huge poster, and then looked at Luo Tianwen, how did they feel that this Chinese king smiled a little embarrassed!
Luo Tianwen maintained his usual smile, and in the face of the reporters' questions, he answered every question politely.
The answer, of course, is that it is neither special nor mediocre, there must be something that should be, and there must be something that should not be.
Everything is an official answer.
An hour later, after dealing with all the reporters, Luo Tianwen hurriedly left the Oriental Pearl Cinema by car.
"Lin Feng!"
Sitting in the back of the car, Luo Tianwen leaned on the seat a little upset, looked up at the roof of the car, and couldn't help but come up with this name in his heart!
At the same time, I don't know that he thinks of Zhonghuang Entertainment in his heart, and he can't help but feel a little resentful of Bai Chongshi.
For this promotion of "Defending the Earth", he really doesn't want to come, even if his film condenses his long-term vision of expanding his international career, he is not willing to come.
It's so embarrassing.
If it weren't for the support of Luo Tianwen's popularity in the past, it is estimated that there would not be a few reporters at the press conference held at the Oriental Pearl Cinema.
Luo Tianwen didn't know what was going on, he was looking at it in his eyes and anxious in his heart.
Originally, it was planned that Pan American Entertainment would arrange for the Hollywood superstar to bring other people to Huaxia to cooperate with the promotion, but I didn't expect that until now, only he Luo Tianwen and a few local actors will promote in China!
Although the domestic actors who participated in the production of "Defend the Earth" are also well-known actors in the local entertainment industry, their roles in it are pitiful.
In this case, how can you expect those actors to contribute much!
The more Luo Tianwen thought about it in his heart, the more aggrieved he felt, he really didn't expect that he would spend his time to participate in a blockbuster film with a Hollywood giant's production background, and it had already fallen to such a point before it was released, how could he be willing!
Everything is that Lin Feng, if he let himself play the starring role when he was casting in "2012", there would be no such thing at all.
Moreover, in order to be able to get this role, he also made very huge concessions, and under the pressure of his agent, he greatly reduced his salary, in order to be able to get the role of starring in "2012".
But he didn't expect Lin Feng to refuse his kindness very simply, and gave this rare opportunity to Lin Feng's close friend Lin Chaowei.
The relationship between Lin Chaowei and Lin Feng, who in the Chinese entertainment industry doesn't know?
In this regard, Luo Tianwen was depressed and crazy, he was so angry that he slammed the cup, he was completely humiliated, and the kindness he sent to the door was humiliated by the other party who did not cherish it and stepped on the soles of his feet.
However, just when he was in anger and had nowhere to vent, things turned out to take a turn for the better, and Pan Am Entertainment and Zhonghuang Entertainment jointly filmed a sci-fi blockbuster.
The production cost is even more than Oriental DreamWorks' "2012", and the cast is also star-studded, as evidenced by the fact that Luo Tianwen can only be a No. 2 male actor in it.
But Luo Tianwen really didn't expect that after the filming of "Defending the Earth", which he poured countless hopes and efforts, the whole world would change all of a sudden.
Lin Feng held two concerts abroad, which set off pop music waves in Europe and the United States.
His name is like a virus, and it is crazy in the world, and every young person seems to have fallen into an evil spirit, worshiping Lin Feng, and everyone is fascinated by his music.
So, this demon took advantage of the power of pop music to fully launch the publicity plan of "2012" in Hollywood's defense homeland, which disrupted the steps of Pan American Entertainment, so that in order to cope with the publicity offensive from Oriental DreamWorks, Pan American Entertainment decided to temporarily focus on the United States film market, and let its own superstar take several other leading actors to tour the United States for publicity.
And on Huaxia's side, it can only rely on Luo Tianwen alone.
But can Ta Luo Tianwen withstand it alone?
If it was before, he was very confident and had the aura to tell everyone that he Luo Tianwen was not afraid of anyone.
But what about now? But he didn't dare to say such bold words.
Lin Feng, the demon, went around abroad, and suddenly became a national idol, and his popularity is even more skyrocketing, coupled with the two superstars Lin Chaowei and Zhou Meiling, how could he Luo Tianwen overpower the momentum of the other party.
He is a man, not a god.
The most critical thing is that Luo Tianwen found that since the announcement of the joint venture filming between Zhonghuang Entertainment and Pan American Entertainment, the entire Chinese entertainment industry has a looming hostility and rejection towards him!
The internal reasons, of course, are very clear to him.
Things had come to this point, and he didn't know what to do, and now he found another thing that made him even more desperate.
It seems that there is a saying circulating within Emperor Entertainment, that is, Bai Chongshi is very optimistic about this joint venture "Defending the Earth", and is ready to postpone the release to avoid the momentum of "2012", but in the end, I don't know what happened, and still decided to release it at the same time.
The most obvious is the domestic publicity, and Zhonghuang Entertainment didn't put any thought into it at all.
Luo Tianwen closed his eyes and frowned, he really couldn't imagine what kind of ending this blockbuster film shot by Zhonghuang Entertainment and Pan American Entertainment would lead to once it failed.
At the same time, when Pan American Entertainment and Zhonghuang Entertainment released the trailer of "Defending the Earth", it immediately attracted strong attention among the entertainment circles and fans in various countries.
Especially this movie is even more arrogant to claim that it is for "2012"!
It's just that when everyone watched the trailer of "Defend the Earth", the reaction was not very good, although the trailer also had spectacular and exciting special effects shots, but I don't know what's going on, most people feel that this "Defend the Earth" is not as good as "2012".
At this time, the media also began to publish new issues of newspapers and news reports.
If so, I hope Pan Am Entertainment can give a breakdown of the filming expenses and see where the money is spent on this blockbuster film, which is claimed to be made for 200 million meters! A professional Hollywood film critic asked in his news section.
"I seem to have watched this trailer of less than 1 minute and 30 seconds, and I can already think of the final result, the earth is in danger, and then at the last second, the hero appears and saves the whole world, right? Mr. Cokeley? "Hollywood Movie Special" ridiculed Cockley in its own news commentary.
