The scene of falling, the kind of tragic zombies killed by the torn ten soldiers and some sappers, all shocked Mel.

Compared with the Resident Evil series, compared to the scene of the current film, it is like a pediatric. Resident Evil Mel has seen it, except for the occasional shot full of zombies, the others can basically only be described as stingy, there are dozens of zombies chasing and fighting on the street, and the ending is even more stingy, without a trace of blockbuster spirit.

Why did the Resident Evil series of movies, only the third part of the box office improve a little? But it's only a little over $100 million, and it's still a global box office. Of course, this is due to the scope of biochemical films, but it is also related to the producer, there are almost no big scenes, and it is completely a small-production movie. Looking at the big productions of various companies, the box office easily exceeded five or six billion, and some even reached more than ten or two billion dollars.

But the difference Mel sees now is definitely a big production of a biochemical movie, and the trailer of just over a minute long, even if you can't see the whole film, it also conquers Mel. Being able to design such a huge scene is not something that a small company can do.

Warner Bros. is not like MGM and other companies, which have filmed countless classics and won a huge number of Oscars, but they have been able to survive from its establishment to the present, and its financial situation is good, relying on Warner Bros. to produce classic and blockbuster films. Relying on is the vicious market vision.

As a director, his vision needs to be fierce and accurate. With his vision, it is naturally not difficult to see. This is definitely a blockbuster and applauded film, isn't it exactly what your company needs?

The trailer was played five times, but Mel was still unsatisfied, he reluctantly took his eyes off the screen, looked eagerly at Zhou Yuanqiang, licked his lips and said: "I have to say, Zhou, your strength has conquered me, and I retracted the words I just said with a hint of contempt." But you also know that a movie can't tell the whole story with a trailer, and we need to see the whole film before we can talk about the next questions about the film, and I think you can understand that. ”

If you don't see a rabbit, you don't scatter an eagle, Zhou Yuanqiang knows this, and he doesn't have the luxury of expecting a trailer to get the other party to agree to the conditions he proposed.

Why is there a trailer? It means to give the audience the meaning of predicting something in advance. From a business point of view, it is to pretend to be mysterious and hype. Seduce the curiosity of the audience, feed the audience's appetite, and prepare for the release. Likewise. It is also a means of advertising.

And what Zhou Yuanqiang took out was the trailer. Instead of the whole movie, the same purpose is the same, he needs to let the major film companies know that they have such a big-budget movie in their hands. Give them a warm-up to pique their curiosity. Only in this way, wait until the film comes out. It's good to talk about the film. In the same way, the trailer is like a marker, explaining to the world who the owner of the film is.

"Mr. Mel, I know this, the film will take another half a month to complete. But I believe that with your relationship with Mr. Reis, Warner Bros. will definitely be a priority. Zhou Yuanqiang said so, but in the same way, maximizing interests is what he needs to do, and it is impossible to put his eggs in one basket.

Mel, of course, understood the subtext of Zhou Yuanqiang's words, and said: "Thank you for putting Warner Bros. in place, I think with our Warner Bros. network, it is definitely a win-win situation, I look forward to Zhou You sending the whole film over as soon as possible, I can't wait to see the birth of this classic movie." ”

After coming out of Warner Bros., with the help of Lacey, he visited several companies, and naturally, this short one-minute film conquered them, and even a senior executive of MGM praised: "Zhou, this film will be your (China's) best film, so far, there is no one." Even if Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has won the award, there is no way to compare. It's not that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is bad, but you know that our concepts and ideas are different from yours, and your film is more suitable for our Western aesthetics, so I believe that it will be your first film that really dissolves into Western countries. ”

But compared to the language of these praises, they are more curious about this real scene. So delicate to the tricks of every zombie. How?

Of course, it's not that they can't do it. It's that it requires a huge amount of money, just looking at the endless zombies in the wasteland, and wanting to make them one by one. God, this is simply not possible. At least billions of dollars are needed. Billions, which is absolutely impossible for a film.

Therefore, they are more willing to believe that Zhou's hands must be in his hands with more advanced computer special effects technology.

Like this. Question, of course Zhou Yuanqiang can't answer them, can he tell them that every zombie on it is real? Of course, this is impossible, it can only be called a trade secret with a smile, and it can naturally seal the ** they asked. In Western countries, trade secrets are confused, but when it comes to this, few people will take the liberty to continue to ask

In the following days, he naturally spent himself waiting, but Zhou Yuanqiang was not idle, in order to get the right to exercise this film, several major companies invited Zhou Yuanqiang to attend various banquets from time to time and introduce some celebrities to him. They did this just to win over Zhou Yuanqiang.

Don't think it's just a movie, to these giant companies can't be like this.

If you think so. Just wrong, in recent years. There are few blockbusters in several companies, such as MGM, even if it was acquired by Sony, but the brilliance is not there, and no major productions have been launched for several years. Now that I see it, everyone can see that it is a big profit, and naturally I want to get some benefits from it and improve the competitiveness of the company.

Zhou Yuanqiang obviously took a fancy to this and always maintained a good relationship with them, because in his conception, the film would be made into a series, and it could be seen as a record of the growth process of the settlement in the last days. Zhou Yuanqiang has reason to believe that the film in his hand called "The Storm of the Last Days". Able to become a classic in biochemical movies.

Li Xiao's degree is still very fast, and he has the full support of Chen Wenbo's entire information department. Finally, in half a month, all the production was completed and officially completed.

The people in the settlement who learned the news naturally paid more attention to the film. You must know that it started with the rumor that an electric nose was going to be made to commemorate this zombie attack. Everyone in the settlement is watching. After a full meal and tea, it was all about this, and hundreds of thousands of people were paying attention.

As soon as the film was produced, more than a dozen playback venues that had been prepared long ago, and the large rear projection screens brought by Zhou Yuanqiang were installed.

Only the day after the production was completed, the film was officially released in these places in the settlement. For people who lack entertainment, this kind of open-air movie is so fresh, as if returning to the village community movie in the first ten years, which is also played in the open air. And on this day, the nearby villagers, almost the whole family, rushed to the broadcast place to watch the electricity they could understand or not.

At this time, the cries of the hawkers have always become a sight to hear.

The wasteland settlement promotes a free economy, and the whole settlement has a strong commercial atmosphere, so this kind of scene is like this. Of course, there is no shortage of hawkers. Snacks such as the provision of rice, the harvest of corn, popcorn, red slices, etc., are naturally very popular. People who are no longer hungry will always exchange the surplus food in their hands or crystallization for these snacks. While enjoying the movie, you can eat leisurely.

I have to say that it is this kind of leisure that has made the cohesion of the entire settlement reach an unprecedented height.

Every old resident. Or the new residents who have come in are all proud to be residents of the settlement. They suddenly appeared, and the life of the last days is not full of despair, not without joy, but also with hope that people will have a head forward.

As soon as the movie is played. Zhou Yuanqiang's reputation was unique for a while, and he became a real hero in the hearts of everyone in the entire settlement. His momentum of sacrificing everything for the sake of the settlement, and his ability to come and go freely among millions of zombies, all conquered everyone.

Although Zhou Yuanqiang, the real hero in the movie, was replaced by an actor, the entire settlement understands that the movie is based on the president. And the picture of the president rushing into the zombie group is real, with no special effects, no embellishment, and a completely real record.

When the movie really came out, after getting the modern age, Zhou Yuanqiang hired a professional cutter to reprocess it to make the film more perfect, and then began to send it to major companies for broadcasting. Compared to the trailer. The whole film is even better, almost ** constant big scenes, used to wearing the whole film.

This kind of trick is indeed rare in the history of film, and many companies estimate that the investment in the entire film will reach a huge amount of 2.3 billion US dollars.

In this regard, Zhou Yuanqiang just smiled and said nothing, did he want to tell them. I just spent a little food, and I went up to the director and down to the actor to work for me with gratitude? I believe that if they say it, it is estimated that they will think of themselves as a complete madman.

In the face of such a big cake, Zhou Yuanqiang finally chose to cooperate with Warner Bros., because the conditions they offered were the best among many companies. With the lowest global box office, they are guaranteed to attract more than two dollars. If insufficient. It will be made up by Warner Bros. And at the final box office, Warner Bros. will share the strong, but Warner Bros. will take care of everything else. Including advertising. Cinema offers and much more.

With the signing of this contract, Zhou Yuanqiang's minimum guarantee has reached the U.S. dollar. Don't worry about running out of money in a year or two.
