Chapter 149. Lee Jung-hyun's charisma
With the assistance of Lee Jung-hyun's illustrated script, Kim Hee-sun's acting skills have improved by leaps and bounds, which has surprised countless people, and they don't know how Lee Jung-hyun did it.
Even Cameron invited Lee Jung-hyun to a banquet three times in a row, and Lee Jung-hyun secretly told Cameron the reason, and Cameron who learned the reason almost didn't vomit blood, if it weren't for the age difference, Cameron would have wanted to chase Lee Jung-hyun and beat him.
Illustrated scripts, not everyone can do it, at least in terms of painting skills, you need a certain strength and skills, otherwise you draw a four-like, how to interpret it?
The more Cameron thought about it, the more angry he became, and under Lee Jung-hyun's invincible cheekiness, Cameron was still persuaded by Lee Jung-hyun, because Lee Jung-hyun promised Cameron that Lee Jung-hyun would personally help design materials for his next work, and Cameron let Lee Jung-hyun go.
Busy days always pass quickly, and time moves forward day by day in the intense shooting process.
On December 1, 2000, amid bursts of cheers, Lee Jung-hyun announced the completion of "Pirates of the Caribbean".
Life is like this, where people gather, there will be separation, the ancients said well, this separation is for the next better reunion, but after a period of getting along, it is impossible to say that there is no loss in the heart.
And Kim Hee-sun is the most serious one in it, after a few months of getting along, Kim Hee-sun understands Lee Jung-hyun better and gets along very well, so at the finale banquet, in the face of separation, Kim Hee-sun is crying without scruples in Lee Jung-hyun's arms.
Lee Jung-hyun was also extremely helpless, so he could only keep comforting and persuading, and with the help of Kim Hee-sun's agent, he finally persuaded Kim Hee-sun.
Sending off all the staff, Lee Jung-hyun began to edit the finished product with Cameron's help, and "Light and Magic" also played his role at this time, after the special effects of the whole film were completed, looking at the grand scene, Cameron stood up in surprise and kept saying in his mouth.
"Prince, prince, that's it, that's it, I've finally arrived, this is the picture in my mind, prince, you're really a genius, I love you to death"!
As he spoke, Cameron hugged Li Zhengxian excitedly and said intimately, and kissed Li Zhengxian fiercely on the face.
Li Zhengxian stretched out his hand to wipe Cameron's saliva away, and said disdainfully: "I said old madman, why do you have this habit?" I really didn't find it"?
After getting along for a few months, Lee Jung-hyun and Cameron have also established a deep friendship, and there is not much estrangement between them, and even the titles have changed, from Mr. James at the beginning, to Director Cameron later, and then to the old madman now, it can be seen that the two have a deep friendship.
Cameron didn't care about Li Zhengxian's attitude, and said with a smile: "I was negligent for a while, and I forgot that you are a boy!" Sorry, sorry"!
Lee Jung-hyun said with a black line on his face: "Cameron, am I so like a girl?" What do you mean"?
Cameron smiled heartily: "Prince, don't be so stingy, won't I just kiss you?" What's the big deal, why don't you kiss back again"?
Looking at Cameron's old face, Lee Jung-hyun hurriedly took a step back and said, "Okay, good, you won, let's talk about the movie!" The rest of us pause"!
Cameron chuckled, patted Lee Jung-hyun on the shoulder and said, "Since you believe in my vision so much, I won't be vain, my year-long box office may be broken by your two-month box office, this is my intuition"!
Li Zhengxian smiled bitterly, looked at Cameron and said: "I didn't think about breaking your record, and I don't have that confidence, but I am still very sure of the billion-dollar box office, after all, your film is too classic, and the time to show is long, I dare to say, as long as the cinema gives me half a year to screen, I dare to think about two billion dollars"!
Cameron laughed, shook his head and said: "Fortunately, you are still the same as when I first met you, not arrogant or impatient, this is very rare for you, not to mention anything else, I Cameron has not admired anyone, but I have to say today, prince, I really admire you, you will be the real king of the movie world, not that I lift you up, but my trust in my own eyes, I am confident that I have not looked away"!
Li Zhengxian hugged Cameron with emotion and said: "Thank you, old guy, I think, I will not let you down, at least, my prince plus Cameron, I am invincible in the world, isn't it?"
Cameron laughed proudly: "Yes, the world is invincible"!
"Haha"
After editing the finished product, Lee Jung-hyun once again asked Pete to send a rating, but he once again started his own online propaganda mode, a large number of posters, short films occupied all the web applications, grand scenes, realistic visual effects, and suddenly set off a wave of piracy frenzy in the United States.
On December 10, 2000, Lee Jung-hyun officially announced the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean" through Universal Pictures, which is scheduled to premiere on December 23, 2000, and will be released simultaneously worldwide on Christmas Eve.
Lee Jung-hyun opened the record for the first time and asked for a global simultaneous release, maybe everyone is familiar with the global release, but they don't understand too much about the global simultaneous release that Lee Jung-hyun said.
So the next day, Lee Jung-hyun officially said the specific content of the global simultaneous release through an interview with a TV station, and under the reporter's question, Lee Jung-hyun explained.
"The so-called global simultaneous release refers to the release of the same day, the same time period, and the global unified time, but the difference between the eastern hemisphere and the western hemisphere is negligible, and the global unity will be released at 8 o'clock in the evening on December 24, which means that the eastern hemisphere will only be twelve hours later than the western hemisphere, which is what it means."
After getting Lee Jung-hyun's explanation, everyone understood what Lee Jung-hyun meant, the novel theme, the novel way of broadcasting, the crazy publicity, and the more anticipated 2D special effects production, which fell into a global ticket buying boom for a while.
On December 20, 2000, Universal Pictures officially launched a convenient ticket window around the world, where you can pre-purchase movie tickets within one week in advance.
All of a sudden, all the movies of the same period were all pressed by Lee Jung-hyun's propaganda efforts, and after only two days of pre-sale of movie tickets, the United States had already entered the state of the festival in advance, and as of the third day of ticket sales, all the movie tickets for all time periods of the week for "Pirates of the Caribbean" were sold out.
Li Zhengxian, who was deeply influenced by his previous life, knows the role of publicity for a work, and in his previous life, "Avatar" spent nearly $200 million on global publicity, but it reached a global box office of $2.77 billion, which shows the role of publicity.
At 7 p.m. on December 23, 2000, the guests invited by Lee Jung-hyun also arrived one by one in a lively atmosphere.
A "Pirates of the Caribbean" has been praised by countless media as a cross-century masterpiece, attracting the attention of countless people, and media and reporters from all over the world have also rushed to hear about it, and they have lit up their cameras and camcorders to follow one world-class card after another.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Lee Jung-hyun appeared in the eyes of reporters and the media with Kim Hee-sun on his shoulder, and the flashes almost did not illuminate the night sky into daytime, which shows the number of reporters.
Kim Hee-sun is also excited, his work is about to face a severe test from fans, and it is still a big production that will be released simultaneously in the world, how bright he is.
After returning from the end of his own shooting, his treatment was completely different, not only the media and reporters frantically reported on him, but even his peers in the entertainment industry greeted him with a smile and was extremely polite to himself, and even his president was polite to him, full of respect, and his worth increased tenfold.
I have fame, I have superb treatment, my life goals are clear, my identity and status in South Korea I have it, and what I lack is the favor of Lee Jung-hyun next to me, of course, not the favor of achievements, but the favor of my own mind.
In the cheers of countless people, Lee Jung-hyun pulled Kim Hee-sun into the theater, Lee Jung-hyun has always maintained a good attitude, not to deliberately show off his advantages, after all, now he is just the identity of the director, after personally greeting a few main guests, Lee Jung-hyun also handed over all to the main actors.
Although the premiere did not sell a single one, Lee Jung-hyun still felt that it was not enough, reporters from various countries had to send it, and their publicity was inseparable from them, and there were dozens of film critics, which shows that Universal Pictures is optimistic about this film, plus his circle of friends in the United States, and his fan representatives, 360 movie tickets, only one day is gone, Lee Jung-hyun is happy and excited.
At eight o'clock in the evening, when everyone settled their positions, Lee Jung-hyun personally took the stage to give a speech of thanks.
"Thank you for coming, this time I delayed everyone's time, for this work, I really have nothing to say, after all, everything is good and bad has two sides, it depends on what position you stand on, what angle"!
After the warm applause, Lee Jung-hyun continued: "However, I can assure you that tonight, I will bring you an extraordinary visual impact, and will give you an unexpected surprise and visual feast"!
After the applause again, a group of actors also came to the stage to speak, all thanking the director, producer, etc., Lee Jung-hyun still kept his innocent smile and kept looking at the audience.
Finally, when Cameron came, Cameron looked at Li Zhengxian, turned his head to the audience and said: "If I am most afraid of Cameron in this life, I can tell you tonight, what I am most afraid of is to compete with Prince one day"!
Everyone didn't understand what Cameron meant, and whispered to each other, but except for one person, that was Lee Jung-hyun, who glanced at Cameron gratefully.
Cameron continued: "You must be wondering why I say that, right? Well, you'll understand when you're done watching the film.
However, before watching the movie, I want to say something in my heart, before I came into contact with Prince, people liked to call him a genius, but in my opinion, it was just flattery, but in the past few months of working with him, I really realized what a genius is, and to exaggerate, genius can't describe his talent.
He, Prince, a young man under the age of twenty, has gone from obscurity to today, not by relationships, not by the economy, but by his own talent.
Today, he also relies on his own talent, from screenwriting, to casting, to shooting, to direction, to post-production, nothing is missing his hand, not so much that I am the producer of this work, but that I am just an apprentice, an apprentice who wants to learn the craft."
Cameron's words stunned everyone on the field, who is Cameron? I'm afraid that none of the people present dare to say that they don't know him, the world-famous director, now that he is just an apprentice? What does that mean?
Looking at everyone's expressions, Cameron continued: "Maybe you will say that I am flattering him prince, but I won't explain it first, let's talk about it after watching the film!" ”
Amid warm applause, Lee Jung-hyun and Cameron walked off the podium together, because it was time to watch the movie next
