This kind of commercial film will never have a good reputation among real film critics.
There is no need to forcibly pursue the word-of-mouth of film critics, just use these film critics to confuse the word-of-mouth of other film critics.
Just cause chaos.
Word-of-mouth is good or bad, and some viewers who are easily manipulated by film critics will become curious and enter the cinema in person to watch these controversial films.
After ordering the work, he and Tsui Hark set a time for the premiere. Kevin bid farewell to all work for the time being, and entered a short rest period. The rest of the finishing work can be handled by the company's editor.
The editing work for about half a month has exhausted him.
When he was working in the editing room, he didn't feel much, but as soon as he came out, Kevin immediately missed Helen and Emma.
Anxious, Kevin called them and told them to go home.
Then he went back to his villa.
······
On the other hand, Shushan's promotional film suddenly became popular, and it also attracted the attention of other film companies.
Columbia and Bowei, the two major Hollywood film companies, have blockbuster films to be released on Christmas.
In the summer, Steve Kevin's movies are sweeping everything.
They put up with it.
But even this movie, which was only produced by Steve Kevin, wanted to occupy the Christmas slot, and they couldn't bear it all at once.
under their cues.
Some remarks unfavorable to Shushan began to spread.
The point of this is that this is a film made by a Hong Kong director.
American society is quite xenophobic.
If you don't focus on it, in fact, as long as the protagonist is an American, these people really don't care.
But Tiantian mentioned in front of the media that this is a Hong Kong movie.
This inevitably gave rise to ideas in the minds of some Americans.
····
These public opinions were quickly observed by China MGM. As the president, Robinov came to MGM in person.
Leiter received him warmly.
What they are doing is the rhetoric that is currently fermenting.
No one is a fool, and it seems that Shushan has touched whose interests.
After a simple investigation, they immediately came to the conclusion that if something happened to Shushan, the biggest beneficiaries would be Bowei and Columbia Pictures.
Chapter 222 Shushan Premiere
Based on the three film companies investing in Shushan, there are not many people in the industry who dare to make trouble.
Those small film companies dare not offend them at all.
The identity of the enemy is actually obvious.
He made this trip just to discuss with Leiter how to eliminate the pressure of public opinion.
Leiter welcomed Robinov into the company and received him personally.
In the office, when they came up, the two got straight to the point.
"Leite, what do you think of these public opinions?"
"This is someone targeting Shushan."
Leiter was blunt and directly set the tone of the conversation.
The next thing to do is naturally to discuss how to resolve this wave of public opinion pressure and countermeasures.
Others do the first day, they have to do the fifteenth.
Robinov nodded and said:
"Yes, according to my investigation, there is a high probability that Bo Wei and Columbia Films did it, and their movies are all in Christmas time."
"Shushan is a great threat to them."
"Then let's launch a public opinion offensive against their films."
Rhett answered.
A tooth for a tooth.
No one knows how to attack public opinion.
Although even if they launch an offensive, they will suffer the most. After all, Shushan is the most anticipated in this Christmas file.
But you can't just let go of your opponent so easily.
It's better to lose both than to lose yourself.
"Okay, let's launch a public opinion offensive against their films. Also, we need to mobilize some film critics and some insiders who we have good friends with to spread Shushan's reputation."
Robinov continued.
After some discussion, it was decided what to do next.
The first is to reverse public opinion, which they plan to reverse through the speeches of the stars in the circle.
These actors and stars have great influence, and their joint speeches can largely offset negative remarks.
That's the kind of connections that come with MGM and Warner Bros. backgrounds.
Their films have attracted an unknown number of star actors, and some of them have cooperated well with them, and they still keep in touch now.
At this time, it is not a big problem to initiate friendship and ask everyone to help out with a word.
On the other hand, it is a counterattack to the films of these two companies.
····
With the joint counterattack of MGM and Warner Bros.
Nicolas Cage, Jim Carrey, Angelina Jolie...
A series of celebrities who have a good relationship with Kevin spoke one after another, and a series of words to whitewash Shushan suddenly appeared in various entertainment newspapers.
It is not an exaggeration to say that these people are more or less considered the last wave of power in Hollywood, and it is not a big problem to occupy one-fifth of Hollywood.
Under these remarks, Shu Shan's negative remarks, such as Hong Kong directors, are no longer mentioned.
The work produced by Steve Kevin has been repeatedly drawn out for emphasis, which can be regarded as eliminating the negative effects to the greatest extent.
At the same time, there was a wave of negative publicity against Budweiser and Columbia's films.
The entertainment circles all over the world are equally dirty, as long as you want to find trouble, you can find flaws.
Since it was Bowei and Columbia who took the initiative, they didn't take it into consideration.
A public opinion war was set off.
·····
Five days later, when Kevin, who had recuperated, followed the entertainment news again, what he saw was the criticism from both sides.
New York Times:
[A film filmed by Hong Kong people, 90.00% of the actors are mainland Chinese, can it be said to be an American film? 】
[Steve Kevin is suspected of accepting foreign funds to supervise the production of this work. 】
【····】
San Francisco Times:
[Mr. Sweetheart broke out the unspoken rules, the director and the heroine had a thrilling night...]
[The ransom storm, the director and the actor seem to have an unusual relationship, which is thought-provoking...]
Coupled with a few specious photos, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.
The film was immediately involved in the whirlpool of public opinion.
All kinds of news dazzled Kevin.
Putting down the newspaper, Kevin rubbed his temples and lay down again.
After a while, Helen brought a large bowl of ginseng chicken soup from the kitchen, and Kevin got up to eat and drink it.
Consumption is large, and nutrition cannot be lacking.
Kevin can also be regarded as a variety of nourishing ingredients, and he eats them in turn every day to maintain his physical and mental health.
"Kevin, call."
Emma helped Kevin get the ringing phone and sent it over.
"Boss Kevin, I'm Dawson, tomorrow is the time for the premiere."
"Well, I see."
After hanging up the phone, Kevin thought in his mind whether to invite some big-name actors to help out and liven up the atmosphere.
For the movie Shushan, there are really no big-name stars in Hollywood.
The most publicity is actually Kevin's title of producer.
This inevitably dimmed the brilliance of Shushan a lot.
However, after careful consideration, Kevin decided to give up these ideas.
The movie itself does not have a big name, it depends on the quality.
It's useless to play these bells and whistles, just show it honestly.
Only when Shushan succeeds by relying on his own charm, can Kevin have the confidence to continue to create more fairy-tale movies.
Otherwise, Kevin was very decisive in giving up.
·······
The next day, that is, December [-]th.
Kevin drove to the premiere early.
Unlike the grand occasion of The Matrix, there were not so many audiences for this premiere, most of whom were of Chinese descent.
They just want to see the scenery of their hometown.
In the true sense, you are not a fan of anyone.
Then some executives from the three film companies came to join in the fun.
and some film critics.
Of course, among all the people, the biggest name is naturally Kevin.
After briefly speaking with Tsui Hark and accepting some interviews at the same time, the film soon began to play.
Everyone immediately focused and started watching the movie.
At the beginning of the movie, a beautiful and magical world is displayed in front of everyone.
Tsui Hark is very good at using color.
Mount Emei in the lens, together with special effects, created a world full of magic. The peculiar colors made this beautiful scenery convey a bad atmosphere to the audience from the very beginning.
A brief short story followed, telling everyone the origin and story of the final boss, the Blood Demon.
Probably the content is the story that the blood demon wants to destroy the world, and the Shushan faction seals it.
Then the screen turned to Shushan School.
The eldest disciple of the Shushan School, a man full of righteousness, is full of handsome men from the East (played by Ekin Cheng).
Controlled by the Gorefiend, he used him to break the seal.
Then the Gorefiend started to destroy the world from the Shushan Sect. In order to seal the Gorefiend, all the major forces in this world joined forces with the Shushan Sect and the Gorefiend to fight together.
