Chapter 916: Zheng Boke Section

No foundation, no experience, this is the biggest problem of Guangguo Entertainment now, the film department and the teachers of USC can consult, but the animation department can only cross the river by feeling the stones. Li Jingming has an advantage, that is, he is not afraid of spending money, and when there is no way, he can always use the method of throwing money to find another way, such as this time, the personnel and equipment obtained after buying Lighting Entertainment made his animation department full all of a sudden.

Minions are an opportunity for the Guangguo animation department to really stand up and gain a foothold in Hollywood, as long as it establishes a representative image, it means that it has achieved more than half of the success. Counting the animation companies mixed in the North American market, Disney itself is needless to say, its Pixar has the cowboy in "Toy Story", DreamWorks has the green-skinned monster in "Shrek", and the little blue sky also has the squirrel in "Ice Age", it can be said that the key to the success of an animation company is whether it has a good image. Guangguo's animation department has not yet opened, and has always been a post-production assistant for films, and now a great opportunity is in front of him, and Li Jingming cherishes it very much.

In order to make Minions a culture and not just a pop, Li Jingming spent money on propaganda like water, completely regardless of the cost, the manufacturing of the surrounding area expanded and expanded, and posters were plastered all over the streets and alleys. Li Jingming's crazy move seemed to scare the world, and he looked like he wanted to continue to invest but didn't dare to play too much, so in the end he could only let Li Jingming do this. Comers account for the majority.

"If God wants it to perish, he must first make it crazy", this is the evaluation of many people's current state of Li Jingming, an animated film with a budget of only 70 million US dollars, and even has entered the final stage of distribution, but he stubbornly added another 100 million US dollars for publicity, what is this not crazy?

"The wisdom of the Celestial Empire can only be glimpsed by truly intelligent people. Although I am not a celestial expert, I have also read the English version of "Spring and Autumn. Zuo's Biography", the first article is called "Zheng Boke Duan Yu Yan", which is very meaningful. "A work that has been launched soon, along with the subsidiary, was transferred to Guangguo at a high price, and anyone who looks at it is an act of seeing money, but Lang. Meyer didn't panic at all when he faced the questioning of his old friend Spielberg, but the old god said such a sentence and put on an unfathomable appearance.

Universal and Spielberg are so close that Jaws, ET Alien and Jurassic Park are all masterpieces of the dreamer. Not to mention that in 2005, Universal also acquired DreamWorks, which was desperate at the time, as a younger brother. Even though Spielberg is a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, and he wants to go it alone every time he slows down, those investors are still optimistic about his ability and maintain a good relationship with him. As long as Spielberg's ability to make movies is still there, then he still has value in the eyes of film companies, and there is still the possibility of working together.

From the perspective of being a person, Spielberg is not only a failed careerist who indulges in his dream of a movie empire, squeezes out his partner when he has a little achievement, and begs for help everywhere when he is frustrated; A villain who looks down on Ang Lee for no reason but refuses to admit that he is a bloated ethnicityist, he is also a political speculator who specializes in praising the stinky feet of the upper echelons of the United States. When the Celestial Empire was earthquaked, I didn't see the great director's love for life and worry about the world. But when the Olympics were about to open, he suddenly became concerned about the democracy and freedom of the people of Darfur, who were far away in Sudan, and made a big fuss about this issue, trying to discredit a nation with unwarranted things. If the great director had been asked to point out where Surfur was on a map, he probably wouldn't have been able to do it. just made a look of worrying about the world, which is the reason why a person like Li Jingming, who is moody and invisible, reacts so much after being provoked.

In Li Jingming's view, these are unbearable things, but in the eyes of those upper-level bigwigs in the United States, they are high-quality attributes, and they will bite people. It will also please the owner, and it is not too comfortable to raise such a dog. Except for two TV series that have a bit of a mediocre response, Cameron can be said to have never made a bad movie. But aside from box office records, the accolades received do not match his achievements. On the other hand, Spielberg has made one bad movie after another, and he has been scolded again and again for being a man, but he still gets a soft hand with the little golden man, which is nothing more than "something will happen".

"You know I've never had a crush on that country, and I can't have any interest in it." Spielberg's tone was stiff, and he was clearly still unhappy about the transfer of Illumination Entertainment at Universal.

"I remember that they also took in a group of ...... in Shanghai," said Lang. Meyer also wanted to make a few jokes, such opportunities don't happen very often.

"What does that have to do with me? My parents didn't live there. Spielberg still had the same face.

"Okay, take a long-term view, now we are helping to push him away in the back, it seems that we are helping that kid develop, but you should understand that no matter how tall a tree without roots grows, it will only fall after all." Bright. Meyer is very proud, he feels that he is Zhuang Gong with great wisdom, and Li Jingming is not far from extinction, "Guangguo Pictures is now strong, but it can support the distribution and promotion of three or four films every year, and he wants to expand unless he continues to increase investment." Jimmylee just bought Marvel not long ago, I'm afraid there is not much money on hand at all, not to mention that his battle line is too long, and the participation of all walks of life means that money needs to be spent everywhere, and it is obvious that the capital chain will finally collapse completely. ”

Li Jingming's plate is indeed very large, and the bigwigs in the Hollywood film industry have formed a tacit understanding out of vigilance against him, a rising star, deliberately giving him a loose space to let him develop, and even took the initiative to help him expand the scale, the purpose is to tie his money to the movie. There is a fixed cycle for the return of funds for the movie, from the release to the box office, selling DVDs and all kinds of peripherals, and then everyone shares the money and benefits, and in the end, maybe there will be one or two lawsuits, and it is very normal to not get it back within a year. Those movie giants are originally playing this, and they will not be embarrassed by the money of a few movies if they have strong funds, but there is no comparison with the small business of Guangguo Pictures, as long as there are four or five movies in a year, Li Jingming's pocket can become more than a billion US dollars into "fixed assets" that cannot be taken out.

Li Jingming is very rich, this is a well-known thing, Facebook has made a lot of money in the past two years, Google and Apple have also been making steady progress, if he is only a net worth of more than 20 billion yuan as he appears on the surface, he will definitely not receive a $700 million baseball club as a gift on his twenty-fourth birthday. But so what, the real bigwigs don't think that this is even if they are very rich, in their eyes, as long as they use a little means, they can make Li Jingming's capital turnover ineffective.

The 100-year curse of the Red Sox is very famous, the boss who was scolded miserably in history sold the star in order to make a movie for his girlfriend, and these big bosses in the film industry are ready to copy the directors, so that the Red Sox team that has come out of the shadow of the curse will re-enter the cycle after a hundred years, and this qiē must start from helping Li Jingming spread the stall.

"Ernie, when my brother-in-law started saying let's dub cartoons, I thought he was tricking us, if that's the case, it's total." Krystal was very excited after walking out of the movie theater, and when he came out, he was still holding a cute and stupid three-in-one Minion in his hand, and he pinched his throat and learned when he thought of the excitement: "Banana!" ”

As long as it's a woman, almost all of them have no resistance to cute and stupid things, and as long as they are men, they almost have no resistance to women, so the appearance of the Minions on the big screen has set off a craze for selling cuteness around the world in just a few days, and even Jessica, the queen, loves those cute little things very much.

At this time, a good situation is inseparable from Li Jingming's propaganda offensive, he spends a lot of money, but the effect received can also be seen, originally the movie peripherals will not sell until the movie has been brewing for a period of time and has gained loyal fans, but the Minions have conquered countless female audiences just by virtue of their appearance, and many people have paid directly after coming out of the screening hall. Because the Minions are simpler in the group, and the various makeup shows in the movie are teachers, it is also easy for buyers to cross-dress, and everyone can find the one they like when they read it.

"It's me who goes, not us!" Jessica knocked on Krystal's head, Krystal was next to her when she and Li Jingming called that day, so she listened to all the words that followed, knowing that Li Jingming was going to find Jessica to be the "protagonist" of a Hollywood animated movie, she had to follow along, animated movies are also movies, "You better develop in China first, if you want to do anything, it means that you can't do anything." ”

"Why don't you tell your brother-in-law about this, he doesn't do everything, he is a singer, an actor, a director, and a philanthropist......" Krystal habitually retorted to Jessica's words. Originally, Krystal didn't have a concept of Guangguo Entertainment's animated films, but after following her sister out to watch "Despicable Me" today, she didn't care if she would add popularity to herself, just participating in it was enough to make people happy, and she was willing to do it for free.

"As far as you are concerned, he is from Harvard and USC, what about yourself, you shouted that you want to come out to watch a movie after dinner today, have you written the homework assigned by the teacher?" Jessica had Krystal completely wilted in just two sentences. After Krystal finished teaching Krystal, Jessica herself became worried, originally she also had the mentality of not caring, isn't it dubbing, as long as she can speak, but she will be stunned when she looks at this movie, what if the next Li Jingming still invests so many dollars, what if she messes up? It is said that the next part still needs to be sung...... (To be continued......) R1292
