Senior Superstar

Li Shixin was unaware of the undercurrent surging within the Film Association.

But from the moment he arrived in Hollywood, he already deeply felt the malice of this place known as the pinnacle of the world's film industry.

Now that the movie is about to be released, Li Shixin is also thinking about how to avoid the troubles he may encounter.

In the mansion that is about to expire, Li Shixin smiled when he saw Griff sitting in front of him holding a cup of jasmine tea with a troubled face.

"If you're not used to drinking it, don't drink it. How's the promotion going in the past two days?"

Hearing Li Shixin's words, Griff put down his teacup like a pardoner, and said excitedly: "Li, Hollywood has not released any significant thrillers recently, as you know, there have been relatively few new works in the category of thrillers in the past two years. But the audience of thrillers has been very stable. It is no exaggeration to say that thriller lovers may be the most loyal audience! These days, the publicity effect is very good, and the attention of our official Facebook and Twitter accounts is rising. , A total of more than 100,000 messages and discussions have been obtained. Assure God, this is definitely the most successful announcement I have ever operated!"

Only one hundred thousand?

Tut tut.

Seeing Griff's excited look, Li Shixin scorned him from the bottom of his heart.

I'm afraid you haven't seen hundreds of thousands of likes and comments before my new movie is released!

However, considering the population of North America and the habits of movie fans, Li Shixin thinks it is acceptable.

As a human being, don't be too greedy.

Noticing the audience of horror movies mentioned in Griff's conversation, Li Shixin tapped his finger on the armrest of the sofa.

"Griff, in North America, is there any organization like a thriller fan club?"

"Fan Club?"

Griff tilted his head, "There must be, and there are quite a few. But they are all unofficial organizations, and most of them are established by some dead houses, similar to clubs and the like. Li, why are you suddenly Are you paying attention to this? I don’t think this is the group we need to pay attention to at this stage. These clubs have a greater demand for DVDs.”

Li Shixin feels that there are many such organizations in North America.

Different from the situation in China, generally speaking, movies that have been screened in mainland China will be sold by distributors to online video platforms for a period of time after the release date, for the second round of profit conversion.

However, due to copyright issues in North America, online video platforms rarely buy film copyrights.

And the main way for movie fans to watch the movie during the release period is the DVD disc.

In North America, the price of genuine DVDs is very high. Therefore, fans who really like a certain type of movie will organize online or offline, and everyone will exchange disc resources in their hands together.

This has led to more fan clubs.

These fan clubs vary in size and form; for example, some clubs have more members and are richer, and there are club entities similar to small movie theaters. And some members don't have many members, they just exchange discs and watch each other in a small circle. Some clubs are directly commercialized and organized by disc rental companies to meet the needs of genre film lovers for DVD discs in a paid way.

But no matter what kind of club it is, there is one very distinctive feature. It's just that fans' preferences are more detailed.

Hollywood releases hundreds of films a year, and it is impossible to collect DVDs of all categories including the classic works of previous years.

In order to meet the needs of movie fans for DVD resources, in this case, the more detailed and clear the classification, the more loyal members can be gained.

For this type of group, the general publishers will more or less win over when making announcements.

But it's a solicitation, but the purpose is actually to sell discs after the movie has passed its release date.

It will not make great efforts to win the support of this part of the audience.

Now, after learning about the operation methods and main audiences of these clubs from Griff, Li Shi has a plan in his heart.

After thinking about it, he laughed.

"Griff, I need you to do a special announcement campaign for these clubs."

"what activity?"

Staring at Griff's curious eyes, Li Shixin smiled.

"Two thousand lucky people from all the thriller fan clubs. Give them free premiere tickets to The Lamb. How's that idea?"

"Um?"

Hearing Li Shixin's thoughts, Griff frowned.

"Lee, why do you give these people free movie tickets? You know, these people generally don't go to the cinema to watch movies. They prefer to be alone at home, or nest with their small circle in a I don’t think this group of people is the biggest audience at the movie box office. Will giving movie tickets to these people dampen the enthusiasm of other interested audiences? And Li, I don’t know. I don’t know if you made this plan, or what. The people in these fan clubs are more picky than ordinary audiences. They tend to be picky about all aspects of a movie. Among them A large number of people are even harsher than film critics!"

small.

Is the layout small?

Seeing the reluctance on Griff's face, Li Shixin was happy.

"But do you know Griff, people like this are the ones who really love movies. No matter how harsh they are, they still criticize from the perspective of a pure audience. Not"

Speaking of this, Li Shixin narrowed his eyes.

"Not the critics who know who knows if they're really neutral, if they're really speaking their minds."

"."

Seeing Li Shixin's burning gaze, Griff fell silent.

After thinking for a while, he finally straightened out what Li Shixin meant.

"I understand Li, I will take care of this matter."

Seeing that the director, who was eager to use "Lamb" to get rid of his embarrassment, heard the elegant meaning of Xiange and understood his worries, Li Shixin nodded and smiled, and waved his hand slowly.

According to Grieve's wishes, the film "Lamb" is going to participate in the Oscar Film Festival held in April.

Since it is going to participate in the film festival, for "Lamb", which was only finished in mid-February, the announcement period is destined not to be too long.

Huaqi Woodz's promotional activities for the major thriller fan clubs are already the last wave before the film is released

February 27th.

After two weeks of publicity and release, "The Silence of the Lambs", which was once known as "Hollywood's most bizarre script", was aborted due to three crew accidents, and it was only on the screen after 20 years that it was finally shown in more than 400 theaters in North America. It was released as scheduled!

Nine thirty in the morning.

Huguang Cinema is located on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

For the first time, Li Shixin sat in the audience of the premiere as a producer and a leading actor.

For this kind of scene, Li Shixin, who has experienced strong winds and waves, has long been used to it.

However, it was obvious that Griff beside him was extremely nervous when he saw the overcrowded auditorium of the premiere.

"Lee, tell me... what should we do if someone throws eggs at us?"

Hearing Griff's guilty question, An Xiaoxiao, who came back from China to attend the premiere ceremony, smiled disdainfully.

Real food!

To ask such a question at the premiere ceremony.

"Of course I ate it!"

(ˉ▽￣～)cut~~

Boom!

Just when An Xiaoxiao was about to teach rookie director Griff the 10,000 ways to eat eggs, the basic lighting in the theater suddenly went out.

On the big screen, the logo of Huaqi Woods Film Company slowly emerged.

"The Silence of the Lambs", which has been dusted for twenty years, is finally presented to the world in this time and space!
