Chapter 466: Being Targeted
Chen Linfeng’s residence in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.
Bruckheimer seems a bit low-key this time.
Previous public opinion incidents would not have affected him much.
But Chen Linfeng specifically reduced his cooperation with Disney for this reason, which shows that he is very concerned about it.
Bruckheimer obviously didn't play a good role in this matter.
Even though he has been in the industry for many years, he is somewhat embarrassed.
Chen Linfeng has already set his sights on communication skills.
He keenly noticed this sign and pretended that nothing happened. He only showed a little more kindness in the subsequent exchanges.
Bruckheimer is also an old fox. He immediately noticed that the other party didn't seem to be angry at all.
In other words, even if you are angry, you have already let it go.
The two of them tacitly pretended that everything was over and everything was business as usual.
After all, Peter's skills were still a little weak and he didn't notice it at all.
"Chen, how long can you stay here this time?"
"About 10 days, basically after the premiere, I will go back."
"That's not bad, there's enough time." Bruckheimer commented.
Celebrity promotion is roughly divided into two groups.
A group consisting of Chen Linfeng, Benedict and Emma Watson, the original author plus two important characters.
Creative ideas, behind-the-scenes stories, everything can be told.
The other is Bruckheimer and the Russo brothers, a combination of producers and directors.
Mainly talking about some shooting aspects.
It is the celebrity group that mainly appears on programs and participates in key promotions.
Chen Linfeng received the relevant timetable, which was very tightly arranged, with tasks almost every day.
He couldn't help complaining, "As for being so nervous, I don't think I have any free time."
Bruckheimer shrugged, "No way, we are all cooperating with you. Time, the trip is concentrated in these ten days.
In fact, Emma was supposed to be involved in the promotion of "Harry Potter", and I specially communicated with her crew and adjusted the time. "
"Okay. "Chen Linfeng was speechless.
In fact, casting Emma Watson as the heroine this time (claimed to the public) was a very profitable decision.
"Harry Potter" "In 10 years, we have accumulated too many fans.
Now that the last movie is about to be released, Warner is almost full of emotions.
Fans around the world are even summarizing the time spent in "Harry Potter" over the years.
The few leading actors, who have acted since they were young, are equivalent to being watched by fans as they grow up.
Whether it is feelings or attention, it has reached its peak at this time.
"Infinite World" was released exactly one month before "Harry Potter Part 7", so it can take advantage of the other party's popularity to the greatest extent.
Be able to adjust Emma’s time to match Chen Linfeng.
This really left him speechless.
In the European and American world, his popularity is not comparable to Emma.
It is only the identity of the director, as well as the bonus of being the protagonist and the original author, that leads to this inversion of importance.
Chen Linfeng looked at Emma Watson, "Emma, thank you, sorry for bothering you."
Emma smiled and said, "It's okay, in fact, the impact is not too big."
"Harry Potter" is about to come to an end.
Her past glory will come to an end.
Although the people around her didn’t emphasize it specifically, she, who was precocious, knew it very well.
Therefore, a few years ago she would have been eager to flip the story and seize the opportunity of "Infinite World".
Whether we can open up a new glory depends on this time.
Although someone in Europe offered her an olive branch.
But I have to say, who can become a top star in Hollywood, who is willing to flatter those stinky feet in the European fashion industry.
Emma watched Chen's chat with Bruckheimer, Peter and others intently.
A foreigner can take the initiative in front of a well-known Hollywood producer and three generations of famous people in the industry.
Recently, I learned about his net worth through the Forbes rich list.
Emma's eyes gradually revealed wetness.
After chatting about the subsequent itinerary, it was time for everyone to disperse.
Chen Linfeng saw several people off, and Bruckheimer and Peter got in the car first and left.
Emma stood in front of her car door, not in a hurry to get in the car, but asked with a bit of coquettishness.
“Chen, I interact with you on Twitter, why are you ignoring me?”
"Ah? Is there such a thing?"
Emma pursed her lips, "At first glance, it was a regular reply from an employee. It was not you at all. I can tell."
Chen Linfeng was helpless. Said, "There is no way. I have a Twitter account in China. I don’t often see it.”
“Then why don’t you shift your focus to Hollywood?”
Emma asked, “This is the center of the world. With your talent, No need to worry about being restricted.
These problems that ordinary people worry about should not be worth mentioning in front of you. "
Chen Linfeng smiled and said, "If you get used to it, just like you are used to using Weibo, you will always feel uncomfortable on Twitter. "
"Okay, I will start participating in promotional activities the day after tomorrow. Let's see you then. "
He helped open the car door and had no intention of talking anymore.
"Okay, see you the day after tomorrow. "Emma got in the car obediently. Is it a matter of habit?
Emma Watson muttered.
This high-quality stock does not seem to be easy to get close to.
I have had similar experiences before.
At that time I thought it was because the girl was there.
Now when we are alone together, we are still very distant.
But who wouldn’t like Miss Hermione? Fans all over the world give her plenty of confidence.
Emma Watson secretly punched him and took him down.
Chen Linfeng looked at the car driving away and frowned.
Why does it feel like this woman is thinking of Yao Mozi again.
He has come across too many examples over the years, so he has already maxed out his skill points in this area.
If the original Liu Qianqian met the current Chen Linfeng, she would definitely be eaten early, and she would not be able to delay it later.
But now, he really has no intention of provoking others.
We are about to talk about marriage. If there is any news, it will be an accident.
Chen Linfeng frowned and walked back, looking worried.
Xiao Chang was walking on the lawn in the courtyard and saw this scene, so he asked.
“Boss, what’s wrong with you? You look worried?”
Chen Linfeng waved his hand, “It’s okay, I was wondering how to avoid being captured by the snake spirit.”
"Huh?"
The next day, after getting over the jet lag, Chen Linfeng took a car and came to a high-end cafe not far from Beverly Hills.
Sister Mei has arrived early.
There is also a middle-aged man with a strong hairstyle and a gentle middle-aged man wearing glasses.
"Let me introduce, this is Alex Hyman. He has previously participated in the promotion and marketing of "Harry Potter" and has a deep influence in the field of literary publishing."
"Alex, this is chen, he..."
"May, chen is so famous that he doesn't need any introduction."
Alex interrupted Sister Mei, smiled and stretched out his hand,
"Chen, it has always been my regret not being able to handle "Infinite World". It's a pleasure to meet you."
" Nice to meet you too, Alex. I’ve heard of you too. You’ve contributed a lot to the success of “Harry Potter”.”
Everyone carries the sedan chair, including Chen Linfeng. It was a very flattering compliment.
After a brief greeting, a few people did not start directly.
Instead, they talked about the two upcoming movies - "Infinite World" and "Harry Potter".
The previous best-seller "Twilight", after being adapted into a movie, has become the most profitable series after "Harry Potter".
Many people are now focusing on another best-selling book series "Infinite World".
I want to see if it can reach or even surpass the heights of "Twilight".
“I believe that “Infinite World” can surpass, and may even eventually come close to the results of “Harry Potter”.”
"The different mission worlds are so eye-catching. Not counting the wonderful plot of the novel itself, just showing these wonderful movie worlds can attract fans of various movies,"
亚Alex said with admiration,
"If we can integrate these mission worlds and make the overall rhythm compact and not loose, then we would not even dare to think about it at the box office."
Chen Linfeng He took a sip of coffee and didn't answer.
This was originally his idea.
He is not worried about the box office performance of the first movie "Infinite World".
The gimmicks of many old movies and the popularity of the novel itself are enough for the movie.
The key lies in word-of-mouth, as long as the audience can truly fall in love with the plot of the movie and the members of each Central Continent team.
The next few movies will have great potential.
Many people in the industry understand this.
Alex thought of this, straightened his mind, and stated the purpose of his visit.
"Chen, the main reason I came here this time is to reach a cooperation with you.
You have also seen the success of "Harry Potter". I can say without politeness that this This success is inseparable from Warner's promotion
And now the era of "Harry Potter" is coming to an end."
Chen Linfeng said thoughtfully, "So? ”
"So..." Alex looked at the other party with burning eyes, "Don't you want to get this full support?"
The word "Time" in Time Warner refers to Times Media, which uses news The media started out, and Time Magazine belongs to them.
In terms of marketing and promotion, it has huge power.
Alex believes that no one can refuse this huge help.
Chen Linfeng said calmly, "Verbal words can't move people. It would be great if you have it, but if you don't, Disney's power is not bad."
"Indeed, I admit this," Alex nodded,
"But Disney is gradually shifting its focus to Marvel. "Infinite World" itself is also a project it promotes, plus "Caribbean" Old classic series such as "Pirates"
Resources are always limited, and there is no room for new works, right? ”
He said sincerely, "I think you are in great need of a new collaborator now."
Chen Linfeng raised his eyebrows, "After the "Harry Potter" project, Warner Brothers lacked The main profit-making project, your needs are more urgent than mine, please don’t say it as if I need this urgently.”
Alex did not refute, just smiled, "At most it can be called mutual benefit."
Chen Linfeng was silent for a moment and did not continue to talk about this topic.
