Chapter 249: Propaganda Offensive

Shortly after the call with Lu Ziwei ended, Liu was given a phone number. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It is the phone number of Lao Pete, the general manager of the small cinema line!

The next day, Liu Lan met Lao Pete, but, as Lu Ziwei said, Lao Pete's personality is indeed a bit weird, but with his super charm, Liu Lan still achieved the set goal!

Old Pete agreed to the release of "Inception" and signed a contract, as long as a certain attendance rate is met, then they will increase the film schedule accordingly until ...... Nothing more!

In other words, if "Inception" is really great, all the small theaters will vacate the schedules of other movies and only play "Inception"!

This is a treaty of overlords.

After solving the problem of the theater, not only Liu Lan breathed a sigh of relief, but even Ian, who was in post-production, was also relieved.

They are really afraid that "Inception" will be ruthlessly cut in half, but now it's okay, and they can finally sleep well.

Afterwards, Faye Wong, Audrey, Li Weiheng, Xu Jialiu and others also called Liu Lan to congratulate him.

After doing this, Liu Lin plunged headlong into the post-production office.

Time passed day by day, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the office.

Liu Lan stretched a big waist and laughed: "Haha, the propaganda film is finally done, so now, let's start our propaganda offensive!" ”

Hearing Liu Lan's words, Ian and Lin Weihao were also very excited.

Afterwards, Lin Weihao said: "Liu Lan, do we really want to promote it like that? ”

Ian also opened his mouth and said, "Yes, isn't it a bit ...... for us to publicize it like this Loser? ”

Lin Weihao rolled his eyes directly and said: "Where is a little loser, it is clear that it is a very loser!" ”

Because, Liu Lan is ready to use 50 million US dollars for publicity!

This is 200 million Chinese dollars, using 200 million Chinese dollars for propaganda, and saying it is enough to scare a group of people to death!

Especially for people in China, if people in China know about Liu Luan's publicity budget, I don't know how they will feel, and I don't know if they will jump to their feet!

You must know that now Huaxia has invested 200 million yuan in movies, and it is almost impossible to see it, Liu Lan is good, he directly uses 200 million yuan for publicity, even if he has money, he can't spend it like this!

The total investment of "Inception" is 150 million US dollars, of which 500 million US dollars, post-production is 40 million US dollars, the salary intensification group is 60 million US dollars, and the remaining 50 million is the publicity budget.

Even in the United States, the $50 million propaganda budget is unique!

Liu Lan smiled and said, "We have a saying in Huaxia, which is called reluctant to have children, and you can't trap wolves!" Now is the time for us to give up our children. ”

Then, Liu Xuan said loudly: "Publicize Plan A, launch!" ”

With Liu Lan's order, the propaganda working group began to take action.

……

New York, the largest city in the United States and one of the world's metropolises, has Wall Street, the world's financial center, Chinatown, the largest gathering of Chinese Americans, and the Statue of Liberty, a symbol of freedom!

Times Square, known as the "crossroads of the world".

On the avenue, people come and go, so it's not lively.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound on the big screen in Times Square, and then many people looked at the big screen.

At this time, a line of words appeared on the big screen.

Dreams, what is it?

Dreams, are they just dreams?

Is everything that happened in the dream really fake?

Three questions in a row directly attracted the attention of many people.

"These are interesting questions!" Quite a few people think.

After these three questions, the picture turned and came to the feature film!

A rough wave, a man lying on the beach.

"I gotta let you know that I'm an expert in the field of special security!" A self-reported voice sounded, and I saw a man in a suit and leather shoes appear on the big screen!

Isn't Liu Lan who is?

"Subconscious safety!"

"Are you talking about a dream?" A dialogue appears in the feature film, as if to illustrate something.

"Mr. Cobb has a job, and he wants to talk to you!"

"Is it an internship?" Another short conversation.

Then the picture turned, and the content on the big screen also began to be passionate.

Adrenaline-pumping pictures of passion have appeared!

"OMG, what is this?" Suddenly, countless people began to scream.

I saw that a city was suddenly divided into two halves, one was a normal dimension, and the other half was slowly rising, and finally, it was at a right angle of ninety degrees to the ground!

It seems that at this moment, time and space are out of order!

What's even more surprising is that the girl actually went from one half to the other!

All this completely subverts the imagination of human beings, and Mrs. is too imaginative.

"We create the dream world, we will make a proposition for that dream, and they will fill the dream with their secrets!"

"It's called a sception!"

"In the dream, everything seems so real, only after we wake up, we realize that something is not normal in the dream!"

"Your consciousness is the crime scene!"

……

Soon, almost everyone was attracted by this sudden promotional video.

"Inception?" Finally, what appeared on the big screen was the name of this promotional film---- "Inception"!

"Great, this promotional video is amazing, it makes me feel a strong sense of curiosity, it fascinates me, it makes me want to see its true face of Lushan!"

"Inception, this is the movie of that Chinese kid? If you were to just look at the promo, this would definitely be one of the best promos I've ever seen! ”

"This promotional video is so interesting, I really want to see it, "Inception"? I remembered! ”

"Oh my God, what did that Huaxia kid's brain think, he actually created such a good-looking movie, damn it, I can't wait to watch it! This promotional video is so well shot! ”

On the pedestrian avenue, countless citizens who watched this promotional video were excited.

There is no doubt that this promotional film has conquered many fans.

In fact, Americans have always lacked resistance to such fantastical films.

Then, every half hour, the big screen in Times Square plays a Promo for Inception!

At the same time, "Inception" has also begun to appear on major video networks in the United States, and the promotional posters of "Inception" can be seen in various cities across the United States.

For a while, the whole of America seemed to be caught in the world of "Inception".

And the United States, is just a starting point.

With $50 million in promotional funding, Inception's promotional campaign isn't just limited to the United States.

In other parts of the world, promotional videos for Inception have also begun to appear, although compared to Heroes of the World and I Come from the Future, the promotional videos for Inception have come a few days late.

However, in terms of popularity, "Inception" is not inferior to "Heroes of the World" and "I Come from the Future", and even faintly beats "I Come from the Future" by half a chip!

Because, compared with "I Come from the Future", Liu Lan's "Inception" promotional film is faintly much higher.

Especially the first three questions, which attracted a large number of fans.

Moreover, Liu Lan shamelessly hired a water army and began to desperately praise "Inception"!

Under the impact of money, "Inception" successfully won the first place!

Chinese.

Baigu, Liu Lingu!

"Everyone is coming out, Mr. Xiao Liu's "Inception" promotional video is out! I have to say, it's really exciting, it's so good-looking! ”

"I also watched it, damn it, we don't even have a promotional video for "Inception" in Dahuaxia, we have to go to the Internet to see it, damn the Imperial Ministry of Culture, you said okay, why ban Teacher Xiao Liu, the movie made by our own people, in the end, we can't even watch it?!"

"I really didn't expect that Mr. Xiao Liu would either not make a move, or he would be scared to death as soon as he did! "Inception" is fantastic, first give Mr. Liu thirty-two likes! ”

"You know what? Now those foreigners are crazy, and many people are clamoring to watch "Inception", and there are more people who say they want to watch "Inception" than they want to watch "I Come from the Future"! I finally believe now that Mr. Liu has hope of winning! ”

"Hey, it's difficult, according to the situation of the Imperial Ministry of Culture, "Inception" will not be released in China, on the contrary, "I am from the future" can be released in our China, although our Chinese movies are not very good, but we are still the second largest box office in the world! In this way, Mr. Liu was at an absolute disadvantage from the beginning! ”

"Say a thousand, say ten thousand, it's all the damn Imperial Ministry of Culture!"

……

Not to mention the repercussions caused by "Inception" in China, let us set our eyes on the United States.

Los Angeles, in a luxury villa.

Marcus looked at the comments on "Inception" on the Internet, and his face was a little gloomy.

He didn't expect that Liu Ling would cause him so much trouble, who would have thought that a guy who had never shot a science fiction film would be able to make such a unique movie?

However, what reassures Marcus a little is that the response to his "I'm from the Future" is not bad.

Although it seems that Inception is a little more popular, it is all made by money!

The publicity funds of "I am from the future" are not 50 million!

It can only be said that Liu Lan is too tyrant, and it is estimated that 150 million will really cost 150 million, unlike some other production companies, which often exaggerate the investment!

For example, for a movie with an investment of 80 million, these companies can boast of an investment of 100 million!

In addition, what reassures Marcus is that his partner is a multiplex, and Liu Ling is just a small theater line!

For those small theaters, Marcus doesn't care about it.

"No, I have to increase my publicity investment, otherwise, the limelight will be stolen by Inception!"

At this critical time, Marcus doesn't want to drop the chain! (To be continued.) )
