After experiencing the chaos in the early stage, Tianwang Film and Television Company finally appeased these 'enthusiastic' investors and advertisers, and arranged them in batches in various conference rooms.

And those who want to place ads in movies are naturally treated better than those who want to invest in movies (Wang is not short of money and does not need to invest).

For these advertising merchants (God of Wealth) who came to send money, Tianwang Film and Television Company naturally would not turn them away.

They were received by Tang Li, the head of the Ministry of Commerce.

"I'm going to invest 2 million to advertise my company's watches!!"

"Get out, you want to get 2 million? I invested 3 million to endorse my company's watch! ”

"I'm going to do leather bags and clothing advertisements, 5 million!!"

"I'm going to insert a food and drink ad, 2 million!!"

"I'll pay 3 million, restaurant food advertisement!"

"Computer product placement ads, I'll give 6 million!!"

Representatives of merchants continue to put forward their own conditions, and they also attract a lot of competitors in the same industry to compete for bids.

Moreover, they don't need to read the script at all to decide whether to spend money on advertising space, if it is other movies, they must need to read the script to dare to spend this money, and now, they directly ignore this one.

And Tang Li looked at all this with a smile. This kind of unsolicited giving money has rarely been encountered in his career. In the past, it would be good to ask grandpa to sue grandma to get advertising money.

This had to make him admire Wang Shang even more.

What makes Tang Li even more admirable is that Wang Shang is 'shameless' in the movie script to arrange at least 100 advertising positions, for example, when his father took the protagonist to buy a car, he also stopped by to walk around the sports car store. Then in the Military Intelligence Agency, a lot of computer advertisements were inserted, as well as a merchandise trading website selling ancestral glasses, and an Internet search tool......

There are all kinds of product placements......

Tang Li gave Wang Shang a definition in his heart: "The method of making money is simply crazy~~~"

Then I was so impressed that I threw myself to the ground.

At this time, the general manager of Bihan was entertaining another group of advertising merchants - automobile manufacturers.

The Autobots in "Transformers" are already household names, and naturally there will be a lot of cars with different images, so the effect of car advertising will not be worse than that of the "Fast and Furious" series. Therefore, some of the world's famous car manufacturers have come to the market to get the opportunity of advertising placement.

And when Bi Han brought the information of the script to the advertising space, the advertising space of Bumblebee, one of the protagonists of the Transformers, turned into a sports car, instantly attracted the attention of major car manufacturers.

In the "Transformers" series in the former time and space, the most eye-catching car is probably the Chevrolet sports car transformed into a Bumblebee, from a dilapidated car spurned by the protagonist to a high-end atmosphere and a cool and crazy dazzling car, as well as the 3-second long camera that stays on the front of the car, which instantly blinded the eyes of countless audiences.

I heard that after the product placement of the former space-time was screened with the movie, it immediately made this Chevrolet sports car sell well.

Business representatives with a keen sense of smell can naturally feel how valuable this product placement is.

When everyone was busy entertaining the God of Wealth who was sent to the door, Wang Shang did not participate in the screening of these advertising merchants. Instead, it is screening candidates for positions such as assistant director, scene reporter, and chief cinematographer of the film.

Only these people were identified. can start to formally form the crew, detail the budget, recruit actors, and select scenes.

But when I heard that Paramount's acquaintance Donald was coming. Wang Shang put down the work in his hand and concentrated on the reception.

"If you co-produce and invest, it is probably unlikely, because there are a lot of projects in this film that cooperate with the Chinese military. So the country will definitely not let this film be stained with the imprint of other countries, so, sorry. After Wang Shangdang heard the purpose of Donald's coming, he refused directly without thinking about it.

After Donald heard this, he also extinguished this kind of heart. And then moving on to another main purpose, "I've always been very curious about 3D technology, and Paramount hasn't mastered 3D technology yet, so can I go and appreciate it?" ”

Wang Shang looked at Donald, and some thoughts swirled in his heart. Then he smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem." ”

Then he took Donald to the small screening room to see the 3D short film that was shown at the press conference.

After watching the short 3D short film, Donald secretly compared the 3D effects he saw from Weta Digital and the two special effects companies in the digital field: "It feels like the effect is similar, which means that Tianwang Film and Television has mastered relatively mature 3D technology." ”

Thinking of this, instead of joy, he was a little unsteady and worried. Because this means that it will be more difficult for Paramount to get 3D technology. In the end, he still stubbornly asked, "I wonder if Mr. Wang is willing to sell the 3D technology you have in your hands?" ”

"Impossible!!" Wang Shang replied categorically.

"What about cooperation?" Donald asked.

"I don't have that idea yet, sorry." Wang Shang naturally couldn't give the golden rooster that laid eggs to others.

The next day, Donald left the city disappointed. The purpose of this visit was not achieved, not only did I not get the investment in "Transformers", but I also did not get the license to use 3D technology.

――――――――――

Hollywood.

Before the sun set, the sky was already overcast, dark clouds were rolling, and the wind and rain were coming.

Michael. Bei messed up his hair, walked down Hollywood Street with a wine bottle in his hand, looking at the lights around him, and his bloodshot eyes couldn't help but lose his mind.

He couldn't help but think about what had happened in the past few days.

Columbia: "Sorry, Mr. Michael, there's no script for you at the moment. ”

Universal: "I'm sorry, Mr. Michael, but we can only invest $3 million in your script, and you know that the film market has been sluggish recently. ”

Columbia: "I'm sorry, Mr. Michael, but our company doesn't think there's any investment in this script, so I'm sorry. ”

Fox Corporation, Paramount Corporation......

Recalling the contemptuous, playful eyes of those people, Michael couldn't help but stir up a fire in his heart.

Raising his neck, "gurgling~~" a mouthful of beer poured into his mouth fiercely, and his gait staggered: "It's really snobbish~~~"

He still vividly remembers that when he directed "The End of the World", "Pearl Harbor", "Jedi Men 1 and 2", and "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", it was a box office hit, countless media rushed to tout, and good scripts kept coming, and he was hailed as another talented director in Hollywood. This time Michael. Bei can be said to be proud.

But in 2005, the director's career began to decline, and in the following years, several of the director's films were tragically Waterloo, especially in 2007, when he joined DreamWorks, his first film "Clone Island", with an investment of $130 million, but in the end, the national box office was only 30 million, and it also won the Golden Sour Plum Award, a double defeat at the box office and reviews.

Hollywood, which is extremely competitive, shows its bloody cruelty at this moment, the talented director of the past and today is beginning to decline, he is like a disaster star, no film company dares to shoot the movie script for him, no film company dares to take over his script......

From high-spirited to spurned, the strong contrast has made him decadent and degenerate.

Wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk.

Staggered all the way back to the house, opened the door, and the house was already in a mess, and no one cleaned it up.

At this time, a neighbor's greeting came from outside the door: "Michael, there is your letter!!" ”

The drunken Michael Bay looked at the neighbor in confusion: "Letter? ”

"Look, this, the ...... that was handed over in the morning," the neighbor held a package in his hand.

"Thank you." Michael took the package with a weak right hand, forgot to close the door, and turned around and fell on the sofa, and fell asleep.

The next day, when the sun hit his face, Michael woke up. Looking at the package on the table, he was confused for a while: "Where did this package come from?" ”

He couldn't remember what had happened last night.

Curious, he tore open the package and took out the contents, which was a stack of papers, and on top was a letter.

"Hello Mr. Michael, I am Wang Shang of Huaxia Tianwang Film and Television Company, the screenwriter and director of "Death is Coming 1", "Fast and Furious 1", and "Biochemical Apocalypse 1" ......"

"Here we go again!!" Michael impatiently threw the letter away. During this time, there were several emails from Huaxia Demon Capital Tianwang Film and Television Company in the mailbox, saying that he was invited to be an assistant director.

"Assistant director? I don't like to be an assistant director, I just want to be a real director. Michael scoffed at the assistant director, although he had heard of the person 'Wang Shang' and made several high-grossing movies, but so what?

Suddenly, Michael notices something different.

"What is this?" Michael noticed a 'publication' with a beautiful cover in the pile of paper, and in curiosity, he took it out and looked at it.

"Transformers script?"

Although he is dissatisfied with the position of assistant director, as a director, the script has an almost fatal attraction for him.

Michael couldn't help but move his fingers and flipped .......

I returned to Dongguan at half past 10 o'clock in the evening, and I finished a chapter with a hurry, and worked hard to code words tomorrow.
