Two Hundred and Nineteen - This Thing Is so Replicable!
"Hollywood Drawn()"!
Going to Xiangjiang does not require many shots, but it does require the participation of a large number of Asian actors. This is the main reason why Wayne chose to go there, and also because he wanted to verify some of his doubts up close.
And the film company Jiahe really allowed him to put down most of his worries. Although Eastern Hollywood is in decline, it is still definitely the number one in Asia.
Tim Burton didn't notice that his partner was a little dazed and continued to talk about the arrangements there. "The company can help contact all the Asian actors we need, and the venue can also help solve the problem, but they also have their own demands."
"any request?"
"They hope that the Asian supporting actors used by the crew will try to use the candidates they recommend. I have already made the decision and agreed to this. It has no impact, right?" Tim Burton smiled and had no idea about this matter. Taking it too seriously.
Just as he thought, Wayne didn't take this matter to heart. Almost all Asian supporting actors in the film have very small roles. Basically, they don't have much role. It doesn't matter who they use.
The two of them could also guess what the other party was thinking, and it was nothing more than yearning for Hollywood.
But Wayne knew very well that with so many actors from Hong Kong coming to Hollywood, the final results were not ideal. The only ones who really have some celebrity status are those two action superstars, and Jet-li is from the other side.
Except for these two who have become celebrities, almost all the remaining actors in Xiangjiang are not very ideal.
He knows more about jet-li. In a place like Hollywood where everything is based on data, as an Asian actor, he can become a "brand" and start out with a salary of tens of millions of dollars. Such an actor There are no two in Asia.
Counting back, there are only a few Asians who are recognized in North America. Three people like bluece-lee, jet-li, and jackie-chan almost all got in through their excellent kung fu. .
Kung Fu is about to become popular in Hollywood, which will give Hong Kong people a lot of opportunities. The opportunities here, Wayne is not just referring to actors, but the behind-the-scenes team who are highly skilled and dare to compete.
Whether it’s the martial arts instructors who were a must-have in the years after Kung Fu became popular, or the stuntmen who are now in short supply in Hollywood, they actually have many more opportunities than actors.
As long as you don't cling to tradition after you come here, and take the initiative to integrate into the film industry system, with their special skills, the probability of success for these people behind the scenes is much higher than that of the actors.
He shook his head to get rid of all the messy thoughts and continued to chat with Tim Burton for a while about the preparation progress of props and other things. Then he took Nina out of the producer's office.
With a responsible and capable producer, the preparation work here basically went smoothly, which also allowed Wayne to put down a lot of worries.
This will be his first major production with an investment of over 100 million, and the type of film will also leave his comfort zone. Movies like "Batman" are no longer very different from the heavily invested summer science fiction action blockbusters.
The sudden increase in action scenes is also the first test for him. In terms of literary drama, Wayne has an advantage. After all, it is said that relying on multi-line narrative storytelling can win high box office. There are not many people in Hollywood who can compare with him now. .
He walked around the huge studio and took a closer look at each designated area. He also received congratulations from many staff members. When he was watching the made prop Batmobile, he stood guard. The security guard at the door ran over and told him that someone was looking for him.
"Let's go, Nina, let's go discuss some profitable business with that fat man. If everything goes well, we'll give you a bonus."
The assistant lady ignored the boss's teasing and followed him out of the studio.
Now this is definitely not a place for talking. All work in the studio is kept confidential. Even the staff involved in prop production have signed confidentiality agreements first.
This is a common practice among major Hollywood production crews. Before and even during the filming of the film, they will tacitly keep secrets from the media unless it is for special publicity needs.
Seeing them coming out, Harvey Weinstein took the initiative to reach out his hand and looked at the young director with eyes full of disbelief. "Hi Wayne, congratulations again, you have once again created the best start of the year."
"Thank you, you've said it twice today!" Wayne shook hands with him, with the same formulaic and enthusiastic smile on his face.
"Compared to the achievements you have created, no matter how many times you say it, it can't be enough to describe it, right?"
Business bragging is a skill that almost everyone in this circle has. Wayne did not take the other party's bragging seriously. He shrugged and said, "We went to the studio opposite. There was a coffee shop with a nice environment. It happened to be me. There is also something I want to talk to you about.”
"ok."
After getting on the tram, Harvey Weinstein kept observing Wein. When he read the newspaper early in the morning, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the exaggerated box office figures.
At this time, the young director's expression was very calm, as if he had always carried a calmness and sobriety that was inconsistent with his age. Even though "Return of the Clown" created the best opening result this year, it did not make him lose his cool head.
Even if all the films in North America are counted, the opening results of "The Return of the Clown" can still be ranked in the top three. However, two of the top three films on this list were produced by this young man. hand.
This kind of success rate is absolutely unprecedented in Hollywood, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for anyone to surpass it in the future.
The reason why Harvey Weinstein has a complicated expression is because a few years ago, he could easily control a little person, but inadvertently, he became a big shot in the industry like himself.
It only took Wayne Greenberg less than five years to achieve what he would never have to struggle with all his life. By the way, he also has a terrifying net worth and income list. With the clown’s terrifying income, he ranked No. 1 Nine.
For this young man, even though he is a fellow Jewish man, Harvey Weinstein is full of wonder and admiration for him.
The tram arrived at the entrance of the studio. Facing a group of reporters standing guard here, Wayne smiled at the big fat man and shook his head. They were escorted by security and walked to the coffee shop opposite.
"Harvey, if you come here to find Director Greenberg, does that mean you will try to collaborate?"
"Hey, Wayne, with Harvey, are there any problems with the cooperation between you and Warner Bros.?"
The two people looked at each other. No matter what the reporters said, they lowered their heads and left without saying a word. It wasn't until they entered the small private room of the coffee shop that Wayne let out a sigh of relief and complained:
"Harvey, you know, I actually hate the media very much, both at work and in life."
"Wayne, you have to get used to this slowly. Now you are no longer a small director." Harvey Weinstein held out his belly and spread his hands and said, "Maybe the trash can in front of your house has been targeted by paparazzi. Staying on guard."
Although things are not that exaggerated yet, they should be not far off, but Wayne himself knows that this kind of popularity will only last for a while. When the popularity of "The Return of the Clown" passes, those reporters will no longer be staring at him.
Director, no matter what, is still a behind-the-scenes profession. After the popularity is over, if the gossip tabloids continue to write stories about him, consumers may not necessarily pay for it.
"Okay, let's talk about serious business." Wayne stopped smiling and saw Sergey sitting outside the door before he started to talk about serious business. "Harvey, I have a plan here. Maybe we can try to cooperate."
Upon hearing this, Harvey Weinstein blurted out. "Plan to adapt "The Lord of the Rings"?"
"No, it's another plan."
After waving to the assistant, Wayne took the briefcase handed over by Nina and took out a prepared document from it.
A few pieces of printing paper were simply stapled together. Above was his perfected plan. This plan fully took into account the current social environment and required the help of media analysis, a multi-step execution plan, and the most important capital investment budget. .
This thing is more like a marketing plan than a project plan. It can be said to be the product of a combination of each other. However, most of it is a marketing plan, and film creativity accounts for a very small proportion.
Wayne put the document on the table, took a sip of coffee, and when Harvey Weinstein reached out to pick it up, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on it.
Under the doubtful eyes of the other party, he tightened his face and showed a serious expression, and said: "Harvey, after seeing the things, it means that our cooperative relationship has been acquiesced, and it has been reached. You have to think clearly!"
Harvey Weinstein's fat face showed the same solemn look. He nodded and still picked up the information, turned to the first page and started reading.
But after only reading the first page, his brows wrinkled unconsciously. This thing was very long, and the more he read it, the more he marveled in his heart. It was like a textbook, a project plan and a marketing plan.
Sure enough, he has always suspected that Wayne Greenberg, a young man, is definitely more talented as a producer than a simple director. This kind of business sense and market vision are definitely the best in this circle. of.
In the small private room, there was only the sound of documents being turned. Not mentioning this part of the marketing plan, only a brief project plan. Although it was not long, it included preliminary market research, target group analysis, production cost analysis, etc., one piece Each article is as neat as a template.
Combined with the subsequent marketing plan, this thing immediately becomes very feasible.
Harvey Weinstein also understood why the other party said that before he saw it, because after seeing this thing, there are no secrets. It is so easy to copy!
