Chapter 816: Reverse public relations

Beach roads along the sea. ??{?[
A black Buick boulevard was parked on the side of the road. Lucy was sitting on the front of the car, tilting her legs, a lazy look, and Selena and Jill leaned on the side of the car, wearing three women. Similar tights, stunning faces and body, are enough for all men who see this scene to want to be the Buick sedan around them.
At this time, the three women are looking at two people who are far away from the farewell.
One man and one woman, one big and one small, really Bond and Angela.
Everything is settled with dust. As the lover of Visper, Bond has taken care of Angela, but he also knows that his wandering life is difficult, not only will not provide a peaceful life for Angela, but will let She was in danger. After some consideration, Bond decided to pay Angela to Charlie's detective office, which is also the girl's own request.
In the lens, Angela probably knows everything about the ins and outs. The girl handed the necklace to Bond again and said, "I think, you may need this more than I do."
Bond took over the necklace and hesitated, and he held it in his hand. He said to Angela: "So, take care of yourself. If you have time, I will come back to see you."
"Well," Angela nodded.
Bond did not drag, nodded to the three Selena not far away, turned and walked towards his own Aston Martin.
Angela looked at Bond's figure and suddenly remembered a very important thing, so he asked aloud: "Hey, you haven't told me all the time, what is your name?"
Bond raised a hand and waved, but did not look back.
"Bond, James Bond."
When Pierce Brosnan finished the iconic lines that must appear in every oo7 movie, Eric smiled and nodded, raising his voice: "g officially announced that "Oro Royal Casino oo7" was killed.

All the people who gathered specifically for this scene have gathered their hands and nodded, hugged and said goodbye to those around them.
Eric and Michael Wilson shook hands and embraced Barbara Brockley and said, "Barbara, I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate."
"Of course, I am also looking forward to the next coming," Barbara Brockley said with a smile.
After almost a year, the Brockley family has basically accepted the reality that the oo7 series control was taken back by MGM, no longer entangled in this. After all, although losing control, the Brockley family is in oo7. The share of rights that should be wanted in the series has not been compressed by MGM. Eric personally controls the series, but the Brockley family can bring more benefits.
After talking to Barbara Brockley, Eric turned to Pierce Brosnan and completed Wisper's play. Cate Blanchett left the crew early, without Kate's acting. Pressure, Pierce Brosnan's last period of time is very relaxed, and some small tangles accumulated in the early stage are also invisible.
One by one, the crew exchanged with the crew, and the crew returned to the pine forest studio from the beach, where a grand party was ready.
The time is already November 3, and North America has just spent Halloween.
After the banquet, Eric returned to Los Angeles with the late Royal Casino team and shooting materials.
There are only two weeks left in the Thanksgiving season, and the release date of Mission Impossible 2 is scheduled for November 22.
In the post-production process of "Royal Casino", what Eric needs to accomplish first is the "Royal Casino" egg embedded at the end of "Mission Impossible 2", and the "Golden Eye of Oo7" egg is added from the first part of "The Charlie". At first, this has become the practice of the MGM movie cosmic series. While watching the film, the fans have gradually begun to have a strong interest in the eggs of each MGM movie universe series.
In November, London has already entered the winter. When Eric left, London has already fallen the first snow of this year. Los Angeles, which is located on the west coast of the United States, is still warm and spring. The temperature during the day is kept at a very suitable temperature of around 2o, even if it is It is night and the temperature will not drop below 1o.
Prea Vista, Firefly Studios.
Eric and the Royal Casino's editing room came out of the post studio.
The editing of movie eggs is not an easy task. Compared to the trailer, the length of the eggs is shorter, and there are often only one or a few simple shots, almost flashing past. Therefore, in the egg, the audience is provided with enough information and suspense, and the main story is not revealed. It is the director and the editor who need to consider in great detail.
The menu set by Eric plans to introduce Mr. M to the oo7 from the ghost party information obtained from Ethan Hunt. However, the specific material needs to be carefully considered. He and the editing room discussed it for two days before he roughly came up. A program of about 1o seconds.
Time is already in the evening. Say goodbye to the editor, but Eric did not leave the studio immediately, but came to Jeffrey Kasenberg’s office in the studio. At noon, Kasenberger called. I hope to talk about the next Thanksgiving and Christmas season movie. From the tone of Kasenberg, Eric decided that it should still be related to Titanic.
At the end of this year, the fireflies mainly made two films, the "Rush Hour" produced by the new line and the "Titanic" of the Firefly Headquarters.
"Rush Hour" has been tested several times in the early stage, and the reputation is good. The film is scheduled for November 15th. It is currently in the final stage of publicity time. Moreover, the cost of this film is only oo 10,000 dollars, less than Titan. One-seventh of the budget of the Nick, the company will not worry too much about this movie.
Came to Kasenberg's office, waved his hand to stop the secretary's briefing, knocked on the door, and Kasenberg, who was reading the documents, looked up and saw Eric coming in, nodded, looked at the watch, and closed the front. File, said: "Eric, let's go to the cafe outside."
The two went out of the administrative building and went all the way to the cafe in the studio.
Feel free to order twice as much coffee and some snacks, Kasenberg said: "Eric, yesterday I saw Jim West and Theo Jinma dining together at Morton Restaurant," did not wait for Eric. Continue to ask, Kasenberger explained: "Jim West is the assistant of Paramount Shirley Lansing, and Theo Jinma is the judge of the Golden Globe Foreign Press Association."
In fact, when I heard the name of Theo Jinma, Eric probably already understood what it was. Theo Jinma may be just an ordinary judge of the Golden Globe Award, but after more than a decade, Theo Jinma It will be the youngest jury in the history of the Golden Globe.
"They really hope that the fireflies can fail," Eric shook his head and sighed.
Eric knows that the company is currently conducting public relations for the Titanic Golden Globe nomination. The Golden Globe Award is similar to the Oscar nomination standard. However, the Golden Globe Award nomination is announced at 1O December. Around the number, the "Titanic" mass release date is December 2o. Before that, although there will be several movies to meet the Golden Globe award criteria, but want to really get the nomination, but Still need to carry out vigorous public relations.
In the past, other Hollywood film companies rarely reversed the publicity of their competitors' works, because once they do, they will definitely be criticized by the other side in the future. In the competition for prizes, the more competitive means of competition are usually only Find weaknesses in competitors' work and attack in the media to prevent judges from putting votes in a work.
Like this year, the Titanic, which directly reverses the public relations fireflies, is rare.
Eric also knows that the fireflies have been a little bit smashed in the past few years, but the film market has been expanding, but the scale is still roughly fixed. He can't suppress fireflies in order to take into account the feelings of competitors. The box office performance of the movie itself.
Kasenberg's face is also somewhat serious. He said: "We are also trying our best to fight for it. However, apart from Paramount, Warner, Universal and so on, there are several shots. Therefore, at the Golden Globe Award, "Titanic "It is very likely that I will only get a few irrelevant nominations."
"You can only try to fight for it," Eric said. "In addition, this time I also go to other non-permanent means. So many people are staring. Once they are made, they are even more lively."
"Of course I know," Kasenberger nodded. The very means that Eric said was naturally a way of bribery. Global and Paramount competitors are struggling to deal with fireflies. At this time, taking the initiative to give people a handle, that is the most stupid move: "In addition, before you come back, Paramount temporarily set the original The Thanksgiving Day's "Star Trek First Contact" was moved to December 13th, the week before the release of "Titanic". Paramount gave the reason to avoid the competition of "Mission Impossible 2" However, everyone knows it well. In addition to this film, during the three weeks before and after the release of "Titanic", there were a total of nine films that were screened on a 2ooo block screen, with an average of three per week."
Kasenberg said he handed a document he had just taken from the office to Eric.
This is a film release schedule.
Eric saw that during the release of Titanic, there were one or two highlights every week.
On December 13th, in addition to Paramount's "Star Trek First Contact", and Sony's "Mr. Sweetheart" starring Tom Cruise, December 2o, facing the "Titanic" It was the "Martians playing the Earth" starring Warner's Jack Nicholson, and the following week, there was the global comedy "Three Presidents in a mess".
In addition to these, Fox, MGM also has a new film on the same stage, Christmas file is such an important period, even if everyone is an ally, but after all, not a company, they can not give up, for everyone is not very optimistic Titanic gives way.
Eric looked at the film schedule in his hand, but Kasenberg did not stop reporting to him the "bad news", saying: "Overseas, the main overseas ticketing country that can currently synchronize with North America is only the UK. France, Australia and France, French and German filmmakers are not very optimistic about the box office prospects of "Titanic", they are only willing to give the schedule of about 2 months, I refused. Japan, there is expected to be synchronized with North America. However, I think it should be the last time we refused Dongbao International’s purchase of the Titanic, and perhaps the power of Sony. In short, the work in Japan is not very smooth. They gave the schedule in mid-March, not even as good as Germany and France. At the same time, some overseas traders who are negotiating also hope that we can provide more benefits. In fact, we hope that we can lower the proportion."
Eric couldn't help but lick the forehead. This series of information made him really feel a little bad.
Kasenberg is not talking about anything. Eric is not too thin about him. It is too much to do pressure on his boss.
"That's it," Silence for a while, Eric said: "If the box office of Titanic falls short of expectations next month, I will take the initiative to hold a high-level meeting to make a review and discuss more strict production for the company. The budget system. Others, you will try your best."
"Eric, you don't have to review it at all. The film company definitely needs to have a big production experiment. We only need to make a stricter budget system," Kasenberg said, shaking his head.
In the Disney era led by Michael Eisner, Kasenberger was always the head of the studio. At that time, a large part of Kasenberg's work included the replacement of Michael Eisner. Once the film that Michael Eisner personally dominated failed, outside criticism was often directly pressed against Kasenberg, and in order to maintain the prestige of Michael Eisner, Kasenberg rarely explained anything.
Hollywood is a place that places great emphasis on authority. Eric’s active review will definitely damage his personal prestige.
Everyone knows very well that Eric has been the soul of fireflies for years. Without his keen eye for film and television production, the fireflies are not likely to grow and expand today.
"For the time being," Eric shook his head and refused Kasenberg's kindness. He said, "But before that, I hope that all departments will not be disturbed by outside information, as much as possible for the Titanic. "Marketing and marketing, overseas, since those filmmakers want to lower the share, then we will wait until the film is released."
Once the North American box office does not meet expectations, the fireflies naturally need to reduce their share to go overseas. Otherwise, the initiative will return to the firefly side again.
"No problem, I will stare at it personally," Kasenberg said with solemnity. (To be continued.) 8
