Chapter 264: The First Step into Hollywood
It has been a month since Zhang Junyi came to the United States, and this month Zhang Junyi has really become an otaku, and all company affairs are handled at home. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ infoThis month, Zhang Junyi programmed several of the future Hollywood IPs in his hands into novels and handed them over to Tireen Carter to publish through his own publishing house.
This month, Tilen Carter has been living in a 'dire situation', basically only resting for 3-5 hours at most every day, even so, Tilen Carter is also excited, usually walking is like having Hot Wheels under her feet, 'whirring' straight with the wind.
If you want to say why Tilene Carter's rest time has been greatly reduced recently, in fact, the reason is still due to Zhang Junyi, since Tilene Carter took the manuscript of "Jurassic Park" from Zhang Junyi's hands, and immediately arranged for the publishing house to process and print 300,000 sets of finished products, and then distributed the goods to the physical stores of his publishing house.
After the publicity department of the publishing house deployed by Tireen Carter, the vigorous promotion of "Jurassic Park" also covered the whole United States without any water, and the sales of "Jurassic Park" reached 56,721 copies in just half a month.
The big sale of "Jurassic Park" not only made all the staff of the entire robin publishing house confident, but also their work enthusiasm was far higher than usual, and even the owners of other physical book stores in the United States also called the sales department of the publishing house to order "Jurassic Park".
Now the sales staff of the robin publishing house are eager to give birth to a few more hands, and often one phone has not hung up and the other phone rings again, for them this is called pain and happiness.
Seeing that Zhang Junyi's novels are so popular, even Tireen Carter, who is usually very stable, is very confident at this time, and asks the printing department of the publishing house to print the other manuscripts that Zhang Junyi has recently handed over to her into a volume, ready to take a big gamble, in Tireen Carter's heart, if Zhang Junyi's other novels can reach "Jurassic Park" Half or even one-third of the results, Robin Publishing House can definitely rely on this craze to go from a second-rate publishing house to a first-class one, even if it is a first-class one.

In Zhang Junyi's theme villa, Zhang Junyi sat opposite a young man who looked to be in his twenties, and the young man sitting opposite Zhang Junyi was definitely a standard local American in terms of hair color and face, and his face was quite handsome, but from his demeanor, he was a little nervous.
"Chris, Mr. Columbus, you don't have to be too nervous, we are about the same age, can I call you Chris in the future?" Zhang Junyi said with a calm expression and a smile.
That's right, the handsome American young man who sat across from Zhang Junyi and looked nervous was the famous Chris Columbus.
If you want to say why Chris Columbus is here, in fact, Zhang Junyi really spent a lot of thought.
Although Zhang Junyi has stayed in his manor for a month and has not gone out, he has been thinking about what kind of works to use to step into Hollywood, and he has really considered the choice of these scripts in his hands for a long time, and has not made up his mind.
As for the reason why Zhang Junyi has not made up his mind for a long time, the key is that this is his first film and television work to be moved to Hollywood, so Zhang Junyi has ample funds in his hands, and everything else is black.
The more this is the case, the more pressure Zhang Junyi has in his heart, after all, if he can't fire this first shot, then it will not be so easy to step into Hollywood in the future.
Zhang Junyi still took the IP of the series "Home Alone" as his first choice, Zhang Junyi made this decision mainly because the success of "Home Alone" in his previous life really caused a great sensation in the United States, which is exactly the same as Zhang Junyi's idea of fame and fortune.
And "Home Alone" is definitely the lowest-cost series of movies among these big IPs in Zhang Junyi's hands, the cheaper the movie, the more successful it can be, Zhang Junyi knows that if he spends tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars to shoot a movie as soon as he comes up, even if the movie that was successful in his previous life has a great possibility of failure.
After all, those directors or production companies with big productions are all produced by people who are very famous in Hollywood, and even a large part of them are almost from the hands of the Seven Majors, which is an absolute disadvantage for the newcomers, so after thinking about it, Zhang Junyi still put the idea of the first movie on "Home Alone".
Now that he has made a decision, Zhang Junyi will have to consider the choice of film director next.
If you want to talk about the director of this film released in 1990 in Zhang Junyi's previous life, out of many considerations, Zhang Junyi chose and chose in his heart, and finally decided to return the directorship of this film to Chris Columbus, the original director of "Home Alone" in his previous life.
Such a decision was not made by Zhang Junyi as soon as he slapped his head, Zhang Junyi also wanted to find a reliable director to shoot this film, but whether it was his current lack of fame in Hollywood or his identity as a Xiangjiang person, he would not have a well-known director come to the door even if he offered a much higher salary than the market price.
If you had to choose between some directors who didn't have any good works and Chris Columbus, Zhang Junyi would rather get Chris Columbus, who didn't have any experience.
After all, although Zhang Junyi took out "Home Alone" eight years in advance, and Chris Columbus is a young man who has just graduated from the film department of New York University and has no directing experience, Zhang Junyi still decided to give it a try.
In any case, no matter how young and inexperienced a person is, but this person's talent and style cannot be changed, since Chris Columbus was able to shoot the blockbuster "Home Alone" in his previous life, Zhang Junyi believes that even if the current Chris Columbus is eight years younger than in his previous life, the final shooting style will not be far behind.
And now Chris Columbus is not the Chris Columbus who was appreciated by Spielberg before the filming of "Home Alone", so Zhang Junyi thinks that it will not be difficult to control it at that time.
