Campus life is not leisurely, Daniel, who needs to work overtime to complete his homework, rarely has the opportunity to experience the life of most ordinary college students, ball games, parties, music, love, etc., for him, how to get as many credits as possible in the shortest possible time, is the most important thing - of course, in essence, how to acquire more professional knowledge in less school study time.

He had "bumped into" Lola in the cafeteria, on the road, in the classroom, and in the library, and she seemed to know that her intentions were obvious, but she didn't care.

It's not a shame to fall in love with an outstanding man and start taking action to pursue him.

"Look at your pictures."

Stiller pointed to his computer, where the number of images posted on F2F had increased dramatically with the proliferation of camera phones — in fact, a new photo app was already in development — similar to Instagram. However, this is a smartphone-based application, F2F is still under development, and most of the current photo sharing conditions require the help of a computer, which is not so convenient.

Daniel doesn't have to look at it to know what the picture is, as a Hollywood star who is extremely sensitive to the camera. When he met Lola on his way to the library two days ago, he knew he had been photographed.

But this isn't the first time.

But it didn't cause a media craze, just sporadic reports with question marks, and when communicating with the media, Trickor made it clear that he was just a classmate.

"You're leaving school next week, and you'll be back this semester, aren't you?"

"It should be, probably after New Year's Day, if it goes well."

Stiller nodded, and now he's starting to tinker with other projects, still a draft of course — this time with his sights set on sports, and he's going to make an app for sports fans, a collection of sports news. In short, his vision is huge, but in Daniel's opinion, Stiller is very forward-looking.

……

In mid-October, Daniel returned to Los Angeles to start filming "Spy 3" in Tangier, who was preparing to travel to Morocco.

The "Spy" series is a rare work with a better and better reputation. Liman was reluctant to continue mentoring, Paul. Greengrass's imminent condition was still able to satisfy the audience's interest in the lower than Bourne's story. This is not an easy task. So this also makes a great director, at least in terms of commercial value.

Directing "Spy 3" earned Greengrass at least 15 million. Universal's budget of 125 million for the third part of the series, except for Daniel's two films at that time, with a total of 40 million basic salary, was the highest price for Greengrass, except for the two of them, the film has no other "expensive" heavy actors worth mentioning.

Tangier, London, then Paris, Berlin, "Spy 3" has to go through more countries than the previous films. The 250 staff members led by Greengrass had to cross a number of national borders. Of course, in order to make the "last" Bourne film, everyone has no objection to this, after all, this is a wonderful series that is enough to go down in history.

Robert. Rudrum wrote three Bourne novels. This was the last adaptation, and it was natural to assume that it would be the last, but Universal's final decision was to be expected – to continue with the sequel novel written by another writer with the same structure, of course. The main character is not Bourne anymore.

This is Daniel's last work of the year, so it is in the spotlight because so far. "Pirate 3" is not sure if filming will start next year.

Because according to Disney's original public plan, "Pirate 2" and "Pirate 3" should be filmed together. However, despite the fact that the two sides explained the change of plan for more high-sounding reasons, because Disney and DD Pictures carefully considered that the continuous production of the film would create greater challenges in terms of script and production quality, which would affect the effect of the finished film and negatively affect the reputation of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, so the two sides agreed to postpone the plan for "Pirates 3".

However, the real reason for the industry's speculation, or almost certainty, is that Disney hopes to force DD Pictures, which is under more financial pressure, to reduce the use of investment rights through two films with a total budget of more than 400 million yuan - that is, to reduce the proportion of DD's investment to less than 3%. But what is clear is that Daniel. Sandler was not willing to suffer this loss, and the two sides went through quite a fierce game, perhaps something happened that the outside world did not know, and finally Disney conceded defeat.

In fact, in Daniel's view, the reason why the reputation of the "Pirates" series has plummeted is indeed related to Disney's eagerness to launch a sequel to make money in the market, not all movies are suitable for the model of "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy", the important thing is that the "Pirates" series does not have a ready-made original book, it has high requirements for the script, and if there is not enough time to make the script, "Pirates 3" cannot be satisfactory.

At this point, the "Spy" series is actually more qualified to do so, but Universal is more sensible.

The frequency of one film every other year is of great significance to the continuous good evaluation of the "Spy Shadow" series.

……

"What about the promotion of "Unstoppable"?"

David stood in front of Daniel menacingly, if "Wonderful Night at the Museum" can still be explained, it is a Fox project after all, but "Unstoppable", as Daniel's Olympic film of the year, can be said to be highly anticipated. If it is too unacceptable at the box office, it may cause a lot of unnecessary sequelae.

"I'll be at the premiere and I'll be back in early November." Daniel's expression was relaxed, "Don't worry, David, "Unstoppable" is a good movie, everyone will love it. ”

David felt like he was going crazy, and Daniel's understated tone made him feel as if the world's fans were a group of sophisticated, discerning professionals. But in fact, that is absolutely impossible, most people are influenced by publicity and celebrities, and there is definitely a gap between the works that Daniel fully promotes, and the works without him.

But Daniel seems to be bent on going his own way, but he can't get Daniel not to shoot "Spy 3", so the only solution is to let Daniel participate in more promotional activities during filming.

"Greengrass isn't a good talker, and he'll probably kick me out of the crew."

Daniel shrugged.

"......," Davy struggled to suppress his anger, "if you do decide to do it, then that's all there is to it." ”

"I'm serious, David, rest assured, Unstoppable won't let you down."

In fact, Daniel knows that the box office curve of "Unstoppable" is very good-looking, and the hype may focus the audience in the later stage to the front, but "Unstoppable", which grabbed the Thanksgiving schedule with a batch of blockbusters, has suffered in terms of subject matter. So it's very likely that there will be a situation where the budget efficiency of the propaganda budget will occur.

Rather than that, it is better to reduce the cost of publicity, which is also a way to increase profitability.

"Well, I hope that's what you think." (To be continued.) )
