Chapter 565: Tell a Story! Counterattack!
North America, which often refers to regions such as the United States, Canada, and Greenland, is one of the most economically developed regions in the world.
George. Lusenke is the head of other North American film companies other than the United States, in the early years, this old man used to be a hot-blooded young man who dreamed of becoming a director, and also made a few movies, but he really didn't have the talent in this area, and the box office reputation was bad, so he had no choice but to inherit the family's inheritance and become a happy fat house and film businessman.
Liang Xiaolong's "Dragon and Tiger Fight", the first export kung fu film in China, was discovered by his family.
When everyone thought that this movie was worthless, his family bought all the overseas broadcast rights of this movie under pressure, and finally saved the "Dragon and Tiger Fight", and at the same time, it also promoted Liang Xiaolong, an unknown Chinese kung fu master, to the world, and finally bloomed with amazing brilliance and became a world-class kung fu master.
Afterward......
With the passing of Liang Xiaolong, Chinese kung fu films experienced a trough, and then Fang Long's reappearance pulled kung fu films out of the trough, but they only pulled out, and did not go to a new height.
Zhou Yang's office is simple.
On a desk, there is a large pile of materials and books.
The desk is inexpensive, according to George. Luxenke's eyes estimated that this desk was less than a thousand dollars, and there were all kinds of books on the desk, some psychological, some commercial, some artistic, and some movie......
There are no world-famous paintings hanging on the walls of the office, the whole text is snow-white, so simple that there are not even any musical instruments, in fact, after looking at it, it is really hard to believe that this is the office of a "master of music creation".
The only thing that makes George. What Lusenke found amazing was the small tea room of more than ten square meters next to the office.
The tea table seems to be carefully carved from the roots of giant trees, and the horizontal and vertical textures make people very close to nature, but without losing the artistic charm, especially the box of tea leaves on the tea table.
The exquisiteness of the packaging makes George. Luxenc thought it was a work of art of great dignity.
"George. Mr. Lusenke, sit ......"
"Okay!"
Zhou Yang saw George. With a gentle smile on his face, Luxenc meticulously unpacked the tea box and earnestly served George. Lusenke made a cup of tea.
I don't know if it's because I've ever been to Vienna and listened to Zhou Yang's saxophone "Coming Home" or "Wedding March" and other masterpieces. Luxenke instinctively felt a sense of elegance from art from this Chinese man, and this sense of elegance was extremely noble, especially the "gentle and elegant" appearance when making tea, as if he was born with a certain "noble" temperament, which made people can't help but be in awe.
George. Before meeting Zhou Yang, Lusenke had countless business routines in his mind.
For example, talk to Zhou Yang about "Spider-Man" first, talk about the current predicament of Zhou Yang, talk about the future of "Spider-Man", talk about his appearance, and talk about his appearance, which is the savior of "Spider-Man", etc., to keep the price of "Spider-Man" as low as possible, or even buy out the screening rights.
But......
Zhou Yang didn't seem to be talking to George. Lusenke talks about the meaning of movies.
Like an old friend, he talked to George. Lusenke talked about the content of tea and the tea culture in China......
If it's coffee, George. Luxenke can talk a lot more, but the tea is George. Lusenke's blind spot, he desperately wanted to shift the topic to movies, or move to the field he was best at, but every time he came to his lips, he couldn't say it, but listened to Zhou Yang talk about the myths and stories about tea in a colorful voice.
Or strange, shocking, or amazing, or sighing at the magic of China, at first he could talk to Zhou Yang rationally, but in the end, he could only marvel at the magic and profundity of Chinese culture.
An hour passed while sipping tea and listening to the story.
Although he is not very good at tasting tea, listening to the story and listening to Zhou Yang describe the beauty of tea, it made George. Luxenke felt an inexplicable sense of overflowing tea aroma, and couldn't help but want to admire.
"George. Mr. Lusenke, this small box of tea is for you! ”
"Ah, this, this, Mr. Zhou Yang, how can this work, this ......"
"George. Mr. Luxenke, don't look at this is just a small box, every gram is more precious than gold, it is a tea that grows on a cliff, is exposed to a hundred years of sun and wind, and finally gathers the essence of heaven and earth......"
"Mr. Zhou Yang, did you drink this tea to create such amazing music?"
"Not quite, but it does provide a little bit of inspiration to clear your mind when you're sleepy......"
"Good!"
George. Lu Senke was stunned and listened to Zhou Yang talk about the wonders of tea, and when Zhou Yang handed over the small bag of tea, it couldn't help but tremble slightly, only to feel that these few taels of tea were actually a thousand catties of weight.
Reminiscent of Zhou Yang's resume in China, from a humble and indebted young man to making a good box office movie, to creating world-class famous songs, which have been praised by world-class musicians......
George. Luxenke actually felt that the value of this tea was even more terrifying, and he felt a sense of honor in his heart.
"George. Mr. Lusenke, my idea for the movie "Spider-Man" is actually very simple, I am very confident that this is a blockbuster movie, and besides, I can come up with more blockbuster movies in July...... In fact, I have a science fiction movie called "The Bottom of the Mine" that I have only partially completed at the moment......"
“……”
George. Luxenke looked at Zhou Yang.
This Chinese man is really extremely confident.
His eyes shone brightly, and although it wasn't particularly sharp, it didn't look like a sword, but it made him feel inexplicably ashamed.
George. Lusenke has seen countless people in his life, but it is rare to have countless business routines like today, obviously there are countless business routines to talk about, but in the end, he was forced to be pressed down by the "planning" in Zhou Yang's mouth.
He said he wanted to make a Delaware movie base.
It's a fantasy, but it's impossible to doubt.
This Chinese man has risen from humble beginnings, and the information shows that he has been questioned and ridiculed by many people, but every movie has never hit the street.
This is a very rare director in the history of cinema......
Moreover, his resume shows that he has never received real music creation, but he is extremely talented in music creation, and he is as amazing as God.
George. Lusenke nodded instinctively.
He believed!
believed in all of Zhou Yang's plans, and also signed the North American screening rights of "Spider-Man" and Zhou Yang's Huaxing Company's follow-up films at a very high share price.
When leaving, George. Luxenke did not feel lost because of this defeat, but felt an indescribable sense of excitement in his heart.
"In the near future, there will be a lot of musicians performing here, and I will be the first to invite you to come and listen to that performance......"
Especially Zhou Yang and George. After Luxenke walked out of the house, Zhou Yang pointed to the distance. What Lusenke said, George. Luxenke instantly felt his blood surge.
…………………………
Night falls.
It's silent.
Zhou Yang finished his day's work and leaned back in his chair to close his eyes and recuperate.
He felt like he had changed.
Especially with George. When Lusenke was chatting, Zhou Yang inexplicably had an extremely strong sense of self-confidence.
This sense of self-confidence allowed him to control all the aura of the office in an orderly manner. Lusenkra is in his own world.
Zhou Yang turned his head and looked at the tea leaves on the table, he suddenly felt a little inexplicably ashamed.
He subconsciously engaged in self-criticism and felt that he was a little shameless.
The tea leaves on the table were indeed picked from the cliffs, and the villagers in Qingshui Village had said that the tea trees were at least a hundred years old.
But the story about tea, about the wind and rain, about how precious it is......
These are all made up casually by Zhou Yang.
After writing so many scripts and reading so much Chinese culture, Zhou Yang has almost formed a kind of conditioned reflex, and the story is casual, and it can even stand up to scrutiny, which is reasonable.
[We have never sold products, we have sold concepts!] 】
[The best way to sell concepts is to tell stories, feelings, and values!] 】
Zhou Yang picked up a book called "The True Meaning of the World" in the drawer and turned to the page of the bookmark.
After self-criticism for a long time, he finally stopped, and then continued to lean back in his chair without any psychological burden, and continued to close his eyes and recuperate.
Wait until the wee hours of the morning......
Xu Mei knocked on the door and walked in after getting permission.
"Mr. Zhou, the box office of "Spider-Man" has exceeded eight million! North America, over there, George. Luxenke has signed contracts with a number of theaters, and it will be screened tomorrow, and tomorrow, if it goes well, the box office of our "Spider-Man" will break 10 million US dollars! ”
"King Kong Tiger" box office has declined, today is only 20 million US dollars, this movie has insufficient stamina, although we have been released for so many days, but the attendance rate is still above 70%, the completion of "King Kong Tiger", if we can sign with the four major theaters to screen again, we are very likely to challenge "King Kong Tiger", it is the first time that ...... it"
“……”
Xu Mei excitedly reported the box office to Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang nodded, at first he listened to Xu Mei talking, but then, he began to fall asleep on the chair in a daze.
…………………………
""Spider-Man" was released in North America, and the response was very good!"
“……”
On the evening of July 3.
"King Kong Tiger" director Tony . Auman was very unhappy with the performance of "King Kong Tiger" today.
Outside of the U.S., attendance is declining, and box office seems to be decreasing with every show.
Tony. Auman frowned in his office.
When the assistant found the reason for the box office decline of "King Kong Tiger", Tony. Auman's face changed in an instant.
He suddenly had a very bad thought.
In North America outside the United States, "Spider-Man" is very likely to compete with "King Kong Tiger" for the box office......
