Chatty Hollywood

However, regardless of whether Rachel Vichy is willing or not, "North Africa on the Bite of the Tongue" was filmed under the direction of Charlotte.

In fact, Rachel also knows that even if Charlotte takes 20 or 30 shots of her eating, few of them can be edited into the movie.

After all, as long as the director wants to tell a good story, all the shots must make way for the narrative.

In Rachel's view, this is a matter of course.

——Of course, only in the eyes of young literary women like Rachel.

In fact, many commercial film directors are less ethical--

Regardless of the story, it is actually very good to attract the audience's attention with the hot boat scene, the beauty of the chest, and the exciting explosion and collision scenes.

——After all, this is because the directors are thinking about the viewability of the film.

What's more terrifying is that while watching the story, the actor suddenly put down a bottle of nutritional products in front of the camera. The audience had to stare at the trademark of the nutritional products for several seconds;

Or after a thrilling escape, the actor suddenly sat on the roof and drank XX milk, and the purpose was to suppress the shock...

—— If you are not careful, you will become the most blunt and speechless plot segment in the movie if you are not careful.

However, from a cost point of view, movies are increasingly inseparable from various placement ads.

After all, this is the only way in addition to the film award funds and tax rebate schemes of various countries to allow the producers to recover a certain cost before the film is released. It is naturally impossible for a profit-only film company to give up.

What's more, the placement of advertisements is not bad.

Apart from other things, Charlotte’s previous filming of "Hell Detective" has greatly increased the sales of Zippo lighters, and the audience did not feel blunt, but felt that Constantine played by Keanu Reeves was playing with the lighter. Looks really handsome.

Zippo's parent company, therefore, paid a large amount of advertising placement to the Ghost Party Studio.

Because it was a stepwise bonus agreement, in the end, the advertising fees and bonuses paid by the other party directly covered half of the filming cost of "Hell Detective".

——How can the producers of commercial films refuse this kind of benefit?

But this time, the project "The Mummy" has also been sponsored by advertisers, and it needs to add implant ads.

In this regard, Charlotte has no opinion.

Especially, the name of the advertiser is also very familiar to him——

The famous Coca-Cola.

Although Charlotte himself prefers Kvass, he has no opinion on Coca-Cola.

You know, as a beverage born in the late 19th century, Coca-Cola has been sold worldwide after World War I.

——Although to a greater extent, Coca-Cola’s rapid expansion in the global market was achieved during the Second World War with the global deployment of American soldiers.

——After all, regardless of the cost, Coca-Cola can be regarded as a true American conscience at a price of 5 cents a bottle for unlimited supply to the American soldiers.

But in any case, the appearance of Coca-Cola in Egypt after the First World War is not a strange thing, nor does it go against history.

——At least, one-third of the Knights of the Round Table of King Bather are black, and even the TV series where Queen Guan Nivea is black is much more reliable.

In short, in order to implant Coca-Cola's commercials into the movie without smoke, Charlotte still thought of a lot of ways.

And because of the addition of the "snack goods" setting, Evelyn or her actor Rachel Weisz naturally inevitably tastes this high-sugar carbonated drink.

This makes Rachel a little worried about her figure...

Fortunately, there are not too many scenes that need to be filmed in locations near Casablanca.

Before Rachel really gained weight, the crew of "The Mummy" finally finished filming the related scenes and returned to the UK.

In the London studio, the crew will film some purely indoor and underground adventure plots.

This part of the plot does not involve location. Compared to going to Morocco, it is easier to shoot in London.

After all, many parts of it require green screen photography.

——The plot fragment of the underground adventure part is also the part that requires the most computer special effects.

Even though Charlotte can use spell effects as a supplement, he still needs a lot of computer effects.

In this way, shooting in London is more advantageous——

Here you can start to produce special effects immediately after the shooting is completed, and directly compare them to see if they need to be modified.

If you are in Morocco, you can't do this.

However, after returning to the UK, before the crew of "The Mummy" started filming, Charlotte received a new message -

Warner Pictures once again opened negotiations with Ghost Party Studios and J.K. Rowling on the issue of film and television adaptation rights for the "Harry Potter" series.

This time, the conditions offered by Warner are much more reasonable.

Not only are they willing to pay a high amount of royalties to Rowling, but they also plan to spend a huge amount of money to buy the film history copyright of the first "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" from the Ghost Party Studios.

At the same time, they also considered buying the various shooting resources prepared for the "Harry Potter" series by the Ghost Party Studio, including the "Hogwarts" castle.

—— Obviously, after seeing the huge benefits of the successful adaptation of the movie "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" ~www.NovelMTL.com~Warner's senior management finally made up their minds.

And David Hyman, who followed up the film production process throughout, gave a practical plan.

Therefore, in addition to copyright, Warner also focused on various resources that Charlotte had already prepared.

Because mastering these things can indeed save a lot of film shooting costs.

——Especially the "Hogwarts" castle, which can be used repeatedly. Even when not shooting, it can be used as a tourist attraction to collect tickets.

How could Warner reject a hen who lays golden eggs like this?

Of course, David Heyman also considered darkly, if the overall box office performance of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is not particularly satisfactory, leading to the "Castle" and other materials prepared by the Ghost Party studio with a huge amount of money If the cost cannot be recovered effectively, can Warner take the opportunity to get these things from Charlotte at a lower price...

Unfortunately, the North American box office of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" reached US$400 million, and the global box office is hitting US$1.2 billion. Now, it makes no sense to think about this.

——The Ghost Party Studio has fully recovered its costs and enjoyed a generous dividend.

At this time, they occupied an advantageous position in the negotiation process.

Of course, Warner is not without its own advantages.

And one of their most important advantages is that they have money.

The power of money is almost invincible in pure commercial negotiations.

But even so, after seeing the strong global box office of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" and the more enviable peripheral revenue, the senior management of Warner could not sit still.

Especially after the ABC TV network "rebroadcast" a special game——
