Everyone returned to the company, and at this time, Xingchen Company was still in order.

Matt Damon joins the company's project, which is a big deal for other companies.

But for Xingchen Company, at most, it is just a major event for the "Pacific Rim" project team and the publicity and distribution department.

The rest of the project team is still steady, doing what should be done.

As for autographs, group photos, and so on, of course, I also want them, but don't worry, the "Pacific Rim" project team has already been arranged.

It's called leaving some benefits for the brother department.

So just wait for the time to come and then act.

It was 4 p.m.

The Pacific Rim press conference begins.

The press conference room was packed with reporters.

With Lu Ping'an, Matt Damon and other foreign actors appeared.

The reporters suddenly shouted.

Then, Lu Ping'an officially introduced the actors and corresponding roles.

The reporters whispered again, and then the flashing lights clicked and flashed.

Lu Ping'an's "Pacific Rim" actually cooperated with Matt Damon!

Needless to say, this news will definitely make headlines.

didn't wait to think about it, and then everyone felt the same feeling as Liu Xiaoli at noon.

Matt Damon: "I was really excited when I got the audition call, I didn't expect Lu to actually invite me, I know about this project and I love it, but I didn't think I was going to get a chance at first, I didn't expect that I would get a chance and also be able to come to China to shoot, wow, I'm really excited, so now I just want to say, thank you, Lu." ”

He really understands.

Lu Ping'an couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough, this moment made the reporters in the audience instantly excited.

What could be cooler than listening to foreigners brag about their own family and their own country?

For a time, the press conference was extremely lively.

Lu Ping'an also gave feedback: "I have long wanted to cooperate with Matt Damon"

And then everyone rejoiced.

The business exchange lasted more than an hour.

All sorts of news about "Pacific Rim" that night also began to bombard the Internet.

As expected, the matter of Matt Damon becoming the male protagonist became the focus.

It's early 2006, after all.

At present, there is no domestic co-production film that can invite such an international first-line actor.

This alone can attract a huge amount of attention.

Plus a $100 million investment.

Directed by Lu Ping'an.

It's a co-production, but it's still a Hollywood A-level production and other gimmicks overall.

For a time, the news of "Pacific Rim" directly dominated the front page headlines.

The most intuitive manifestation of this is that people who want to participate in investment have exploded the phone of Xingchen Company.

This is all to be expected.

The stars have their own responses.

Then soon the investment conference was launched.

In terms of share sharing, it is going very fast, because they have come to ask earlier.

This time, the 20% share totaled $20 million, which was not a small amount, but it was quickly divided up cleanly.

Among them, China Film has no premium, and the older batch of partners such as Huayi, Guangguang, and Eagle Emperor are all at a premium of 150%.

And they all come at a cost of 75 million.

There's one more Wanda in there.

Wanda began to enter the cinema industry last year, and this is the first official cooperation between Xingchen and Wanda.

Wanda also understands the rules and comes according to the premium.

Anyway, it's also a Hollywood blockbuster.

The premium of 150% is actually already earned.

Because the next advertising investment will definitely not be bad, it is a high probability event that the investment will be returned after the end of the investment, unless the shooting overrun is too much.

Lu Ping'an's side also agreed to sell it to others.

After all, this is Wanda, and people are engaged in real estate, and now the number of theaters owned by them is not small.

In addition, Lu Ping'an's fried chicken restaurant also cooperates with them, so the two sides are actually not strangers.

In the end, the share of $20 million was recovered, and more than $36 million was recovered.

The highest premium is a coal boss, who spent 30 million yuan and bought a share of 3 million shares, just to praise an actress, and the requirement is just to show a straight face, and the appearance is not less than three seconds.

This price is much more expensive than advertising.

Lu Ping'an was very curious about which actress was so expensive and so charming.

As a result, he soon gave the coal boss a thumbs up.

Because people said it, the actress was undecided.

In other words, competition for posts!

Tsk, do that line of work, and be able to sit on a huge fortune in 06, in addition to luck, means are indeed indispensable.

Lu Ping'an finally told him that people have to be clean, and they can't be involved in drugs and illegal things, and then there must be results within two weeks, and they can't be delayed all the time.

The coal boss was very happy and said on the spot that he was going to package the evening activities of the China Merchants Association.

Lu Ping'an refused, because he was busy and was afraid of accidents.

Hell knows what he's going to do at night.

Before the end of the investment promotion, the share was divided, Lu Ping'an congratulated everyone on becoming partners, and then reminded everyone that all parties should work hard to control public opinion.

Huayi and others know this matter.

Because the heroine is Liu Qianqian, this is bound to cause many conjectures.

Although Liu Qianqian now has works such as "Fairy Sword 1" and "The Family of Gold Powder", as well as the upcoming "Little Dragon Girl", her popularity belongs to the top group among the younger generation.

But even so, her coffee position is still too far from Hollywood A-level productions like "Pacific Rim".

Now that she has become a female leader, she will definitely make some noise.

However, everyone said that they would cooperate.

Why, it's just the rules of the game.

Who wouldn't praise their family or their own women in the future?

And now everyone has a stake in the project, and some companies are also stuffed with people.

Therefore, controlling public opinion is a common interest.

In fact, Lu Ping'an can also have a fake audition.

But time, and not sure if doing so will cause some uncontrollable trouble.

So I don't do it at all.

Nowadays, the top domestic film companies are basically in a trench, and there is no need to worry about it in the future.

Of course, the preparations for the change still have to be done, and the heart of defense is indispensable, so starting today, the Xingchen Network Department will be on standby at all times.

The next morning, Lu Ping'an and a group of creators held a start-up ceremony in Xingchen Studio.

This time there were more reporters.

In addition to reporting on the incident itself, everyone wants to see who the heroine is.

After knowing that it was Liu Qianqian, everyone was not surprised by all kinds of surprises.

Then the mind soon began to think about it.

Did Liu Qianqian's godfather help?

Or is it simply Lu Ping'an himself?

So Liu Qianqian is actually Lu Ping'an's woman?!

Wow, that's a child daughter-in-law!!

When fame and resources don't match, similar conjectures explode.

A lot of people already have millions of words in their minds.

However, when the reporters present received the big red envelope, and then the reporters present were told to report normally, otherwise after the warning of the green corpse, everyone also woke up.

They looked at a stack of seven or eight major producers.

So I knew that this thunder could not be touched!

Of course, if Liu Qianqian doesn't act well, then don't blame us!

The boot-up ceremony is over.

Lu Ping'an officially entered the filming state.

First of all, one thing should be made clear.

"Pacific Rim" is a co-production, but it is mainly aimed at the international market.

This kind of pure mecha fighting monsters is more suitable for the American-style heroic narrative structure.

Just like most of the Internet, it is the protagonist who kills and kills.

It doesn't have any connotation, but commercial films have to be like this.

Of course, this film will also add some depictions of "great mobilization" and "community with a shared future for mankind".

After all, it's all over.

Most of the people in the movie are yellow, and the main characters are all yellow, black and white.

Finally, the fortress is in Xiangjiang again.

Naturally, it is necessary to show the nameless logistics members in the base and the faces of the people in the city behind them.

However, the overall script framework will not be adapted much compared to the original version.

The main story of fighting monsters cannot be changed.

It's just a little bit of a tweak.

Therefore, the current changes to the script are in the following aspects:
