Chapter 158 of the main text volume is a difficult road to release

Next chapter

The Light and Shadow Film Company is located in a complex of buildings on the outskirts of Los Angeles, and at this time the Light and Shadow Film Company can be said to have nothing, basically a leather bag company, except for a "Human Ghost Love" movie that has been produced, there are only some facilities and people.

Han Ziguang looked at this small office area and raised his eyebrows, this can be regarded as his first foothold in the United States, as his first industry, to be honest, it does look a little shabby, so the next thing is to do something that he can take for granted.

"These are the two movies I prepared, Home Alone is the focus of the movie on child stars, and if the main character, I plan to let one person play it, his name is Leonardo. DiCaprio. In the movie "Mission Impossible", I am ready to let Reeves continue to star, what do you think? ”

Han Ziguang threw the two scripts on the desk in the office, and the only people present at this time were Cameron, Katzenberg, Susan and Lufaran, after all, such a meeting is extremely boring, and the people he brought from Xiangjiang are visiting some of the facilities and processes in Hollywood at this time.

"Boss! IMHO, this Leonardo. Who exactly is DiCaprio? Will such a children's movie really be popular? ”

Katzenberg watched the movie "Home Alone", which is honestly very interesting, but it is full of fairy tales, and it is actually a family movie, which makes people feel really novel, but I don't know if it can really be accepted by the audience.

"This matter is naturally handed over to Susan, after all, she is the president of the agency and is responsible for managing the signed artists, directors and screenwriters."

Han Ziguang shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, and wondered how to find Leonardo. DiCaprio he was not worried at all, after all, Leonardo at this time. DiCaprio has also set foot in the entertainment industry, even if it is only an educational film, but in Hollywood, there is no shortage of news and actors.

"Boss! You really like to embarrass people, you know I went to Keanu. Did Reeves make a lot of effort? Don't you think it's too embarrassing for me to find a child now? All right! Since I'm the boss, I'll do my best. ”

Susan looked at Han Ziguang and smiled bitterly, it was really the people above who moved their mouths, and the people below who broke their legs, at this time there were only two signed artists of the light and shadow agency, one was Sophie. Marceau, and the other Keanu. Reeves, while the director is James. Cameron, the three of them are not very famous at this time, but she also believes that after the movie is released, the names of the three will inevitably be well-known to American audiences.

In fact, from this point of view, Han Ziguang is very accurate in both the script and the eyes of people, and now since Han Ziguang is optimistic about the nine-year-old child, then Susan doesn't mind putting Leonardo. DiCaprio was signed. After all, it is not easy to cultivate a child star, and when you grow up in the future, you can continue to make money for the company, and the number of years of your acting career can be greatly improved.

"Susan! Don't be modest, I'm sure you can do it, so let's talk about the release, how many big screens can we get on the day of the release? And there's a lot more to do, so we can't afford to be idle. ”

Han Ziguang doesn't know anything about the theater chain in the United States, because the United States has an anti-monopoly law, so there is still a distinction between the production company, the distribution company and the theater chain, especially the theater chain is not at all controlled by a certain film company, but secretly, the theater company is also inextricably linked with many large companies, and it is not as simple as it seems.

Nominally, the major film companies in the United States do not interfere with each other, but in fact, the theater chain is also greatly affected by the major film companies, after all, the eight major film companies are the pillars of Hollywood, and there are not a few movies that are produced every year.

Originally! Katzenberg also wants to distribute the company's first film "Ghost Love" to Paramount Pictures, but Paramount Pictures is noncommittal about newcomers and new directors, plus the new company's films, it is impossible to schedule a good film on a popular schedule like Christmas, after all, it is basically booked by other major film companies, and it will become cannon fodder.

Therefore, the conditions offered by Paramount Pictures are very harsh, and they don't plan to promote it, and the number of movie theaters released is also very small, plus they are all relatively remote places, no matter how you look at it, it makes people feel a little uncomfortable, as if they are like lambs to the slaughter.

This is also a helpless thing, the world of the jungle is the most cruel, and many film companies are stifled in such an environment, there is no competitiveness at all, and its cruel Cheng dù is much more realistic than the Xiangjiang film circle.

As for other big film companies, basically there is not much difference from Paramount, Han Ziguang was angry, categorically refused to cooperate with those big film companies, and decided to distribute it by himself, in fact, he has laid out the distribution network in the Eastern world, but the distribution capacity in North America is extremely limited, so he wants to use the distribution network of major film companies to play his own films, and it is a thunderbolt, but unfortunately it backfired.

After all, no one is a fool, even if he thinks that the movie "Ghost Love" is very good, he also wants to maximize the benefits, and he is also very wary of the filmmaker who came from the East, because Han Ziguang has indeed made great achievements recently.

Of course, it only makes people remember Han Ziguang a little, in the eyes of these big film companies, Han Ziguang is like a freshly born caterpillar, inconspicuous, and Xiangjiang is also a small place, and what to say about Oriental Hollywood is really funny.

Han Ziguang naturally knows how difficult it is for a new film company to be in Hollywood, and because of this, it also arouses his competitive spirit, and he wants to let these dog-eyed and low-looking Yankees know how powerful they are, so that they can understand that not everyone can look down on them.

"Boss! The situation is not optimistic! The distribution capacity of our light and shadow distribution company is really limited, and now we can only get a good schedule in Los Angeles in the United States, and as for other cities and other states, it is impossible to achieve simultaneous releases, and only some remote areas have some big screens. ”

Lu Flann shrugged his shoulders helplessly, he did his best, but unfortunately he didn't do it, which made him quite embarrassed, but once it can really be released globally, then no one dares to underestimate the ability of the light and shadow distribution company
