After a series of not-so-smooth actor auditions, Lu Nan and his team finally settled on all the cast and crew of "Ghost Messenger".

Next, due to the sufficient preparation of the preliminary work, under the instruction of Wu Tao, Lu Nan almost immediately began the preparation of the film. This point has been made clear when the actor auditioned and signed.

Li Zhongda has been up and down in the circle for many years, and he has long been familiar with logistics support.

In just one week, under the Weibo promotion of a group of stars led by Xu Tianqi, "Ghost Messenger" has had a fermenting impact among the majority of sci-fi interstellar fans. In addition, Angel 'accidentally' leaked a three-minute special effects sample one day, which immediately caused an uproar on the Internet.

Interstellar fans from Tiannan and Haibei spontaneously organized themselves through the Internet, and opened up a special space in various forums such as chat groups and post bars, updating the dynamics of the crew every day.

With such a group of persistent fans, Lu Nan is full of energy every day. He even shaved off his shoulder-length hair, which he had always been proud of, and devoted himself to filming.

After all, Wu Tao didn't give him much time, and the fans' expectations were endless motivation, and he had no extra time to take care of his beloved long hair. The two sides weighed and completed the transformation from a literary man to a bald man.

Angel came out of the office and was catching up with Li Zhongda, who had rushed back from outside. After inquiring about some information, and learning that everything was going normally, Fang Cai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "After being busy for so long, I was finally able to take a breath." Lao Li, let's take the opportunity to hurry up and go out for a vacation to accompany our families. By the time the film is finished, it is estimated that the two of us will have to be busy again. ”

Li Zhongda nodded and said, "Anqi, you're right. I just came back from the crew, don't say it, Lu Nan really has two hits. Although it was the first time to play the role of chief director, it went well. Now a quarter of the shooting has been completed, and it has passed the strict review of the boss......"

"At this pace, we can be idle for a month at most, and then we will have to work hard for the promotion of the film's release." Li Zhongda pondered, and then changed his words and said: "But now we are busy and tired, but we have a lot of energy in our hearts!" ”

At this moment, Anqi's mobile phone rang, and when she saw that it was Wu Tao's number, she exchanged glances with Li Zhongda, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Wu Tao, what are your instructions?"

Wu Tao's voice came from the phone and said, "I guess that the preliminary work of you and Lao Li should come to an end." I feel that it is time to prepare for the overseas distribution of the film. Angel, you immediately start the plan to go to the United States and set up Angel's North American distribution branch. In addition, you told Lao Li to start the plan to go to the UK and prepare for the establishment of Angel's European distribution branch. ”

Angel immediately retorted; "Wu Tao, it's true that our movie is going to be distributed and released simultaneously around the world, but we don't need to set up two branches, right? We can cooperate with publishers who have resources immediately, and we can negotiate commissions. The associated costs can be kept within reasonable limits. ”

Wu Tao said succinctly: "Anqi, I'll explain to you for the last time." There are three reasons for the establishment of overseas branches. First, there is never more than one Star Wars era movie series, it is likely to be three, five or even seven; Second, overseas box office revenue generates foreign exchange, which is directly transferred to China, which is not cost-effective; Third, for the settlement of salaries with foreign actors, foreign exchange is undoubtedly more convenient. ”

In fact, there is the most important reason, that is, the establishment of an overseas distribution branch is the first step of Wu Tao's global strategic deployment. The fundamental purpose of the globalization strategy is not to put all the eggs in one basket. This is a kind of consciousness of being prepared for danger in times of peace, and Wu Tao doesn't need to talk to An Qi so clearly.

Sure enough, Angel was easily persuaded, hung up the phone, and returned to the office with Li Zhongda to discuss the preparations for the overseas distribution branch.

A month and a half passed by in a hurry. At the end of October, the filming of "Ghostbringer" was completed.

Lu Nan's crew and cast and crew couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The crew dispersed, and Lu Nan went home and fell asleep. Xu Tianqi and Chen Kun and other actors flew abroad separately to give themselves a big vacation to relax and decompress.

However, happy times are always extremely short. Three days later, Lu Nan returned to Angel's company with a pair of swollen eyes, and was immediately stunned by a news that weighed nothing!

"What, the boss decided to set Ghostbringer for Thanksgiving?" Lu Nan looked at An Qi and Li Zhongda in front of him, and said in disbelief: "I heard it right, Mr. An, Mr. Li?" ”

An Qi had just received Wu Tao's arrangement, and it was obvious that her anger had not been straightened out until now, so for Lu Nan's reaction, her beautiful eyes turned white and said: "You heard it right, Director Lu Da, quickly call the main creative staff back, let's hurry up and discuss the preliminary publicity plan!" ”

"Yes...... But ......, the trailer of the movie hasn't been done yet, and I haven't seen the post-production special effects and film editing, so why is it released in such a hurry? Besides, the foreign film schedule is obviously more popular at Christmas! ”

Angel picked up the remote control and pressed it, and the projection on the wall immediately played.

"Oh, that's the trailer! Lao Li and I were about to see ......"

As they spoke, the three of them were silent. The projection projection on half of the wall immediately transports them into a new, real and explosive interstellar world.

"Damn, this character and special effects have no trace of post-processing...... Lu Nan muttered.

"It's so exciting, I can't help but want to watch it!" Angel muttered.

"What are you waiting for, let's act quickly!" Li Zhongda slapped the table and said.

Soon, Xu Tianqi, who was far away in the Maldives, received a call from the crew. At the same time, Chen Kun and other actors and foreign actors all received a call from Angel Media.

On the Internet, as soon as the release date of "Ghost Messenger" was announced, the number of people in the post bar immediately broke the 10 million mark. Among them, many overseas Chinese from all over the world are mixed in, and even foreigners who can type foreign languages are actively involved.

The five-minute trailer exceeded the 100 million mark in one day with a number of hits on the Internet. Ghost Messenger has risen to the top of Baidu's most searched terms! And the movie itself was rated as the most anticipated sci-fi blockbuster!

There are not many Thanksgiving films in China, and "Ghost Messenger" won 80% of the theaters in one fell swoop with its super network influence.

However, in North America and Europe, after the efforts of Angel and Li Zhongda, "Ghost Messenger" only won 15% of the film schedule for Thanksgiving.

This is obviously a big disadvantage to the international box office performance of "Ghostbringer"!
