Chapter 260 Darkness actually starts shooting, the father of the clown!
"Wow! Liu Shishi gained more than 2 million followers overnight! And she has also been favored by advertisers. She is indeed a female star that is favored by foreign capital. She is amazing!"
"Goddess Shi Shi is the most beautiful! I am very happy that you have become the spokesperson of our Dianzhou tourism! I will always support you!"
As Su Yi said, as soon as this promotion started, Let Liu Shishi gain countless followers.
Many crew members have even extended an olive branch.
Although the sky-high performance fees have been changed, or the trend has been cut off, some celebrities favored by investors are still worth a lot of money.
For example, this Chanel endorsement is worth tens of millions.
You can’t lower the price yourself, right?
Su Yi is not a nosy person. He can only ensure that there are no sky-high actor fees in his movies.
And now Liu Shishi is very popular. In the eyes of the outside world, he was Su Yi's "Queen Actor".
Although he has not participated in any major productions, he has been highly praised by the media.
I have never endorsed any other brands before, but I was directly valued by Chanel. The signing fee is the same as in the West. I was originally a spokesperson for leather goods, but later I was directly upgraded to the spokesperson of Dragon Kingdom.
Now he has become the spokesperson of Dianzhou tourism. Before, even no celebrities were willing to take over this 'hard work'.
Because within the system it is impossible to sign contracts at too high a price, and no one has the dignity to hire stars for free.
Especially at this juncture.
Ordinary little stars don't have enough weight.
Liu Shishi’s identity is just right!
I can be recognized by Chanel, no matter what the reason is, but there is definitely no problem in terms of appearance. It is very suitable for her to be the spokesperson, and it does not cost any money.
Of course, this is for Su Yi's sake.
And this itself has brought huge popularity to Liu Shishi, which is a win-win situation.
Su Yi felt a little guilty this time and directly posted Liu Shishi's photo on his blog.
This is also the first time to ‘hype’ an actress.
But Su Yi can't even figure out the complicated emotions in his heart.
But no matter what, this time Liu Shishi became popular with Dianzhou tourism.
The day I discussed with Su Yi about Dianzhou tourism promotion, it seemed that not long after that, Liu Shishi’s endorsement invitations and crew invitations floated over like snowflakes.
Liu Shishi was dazzled.
Is this the power of a senior to film a program at will?
Liu Shishi was shocked. There were many invitations from some big productions, all of which were famous directors, as well as foreign crews, and different types of advertising endorsements.
Some even offer prices in the tens of millions!
Such treatment is probably the price of some international first-line endorsements.
Among the three girls in Cyclonus, the most famous one is Liu Yifei. After all, when Su Yi was still a newly graduated executive director, Liu Yifei was already famous in the idol circle.
Later, after being screened by Magnolia, he was nominated for an Oscar for Parasite.
And it was also favored by LV and Dior before, although later there were setbacks with Sharon Stone and she had withdrawn from two contracts.
But after the donation, LV not only donated to natural disasters, but also donated to two Hope Primary Schools. It attaches great importance to the current Longguo market, saves the brand reputation, and climbs back where it fell. Get up and still discuss the contract with Liu Yifei.
During that time, Liu Yifei’s reputation was spreading, and a large foreign production also sent an invitation to discuss cooperation.
It can be said that it beats the two, and its resources and other aspects are top-notch.
But with this Dianzhou tourism incident, Liu Shishi's reputation quickly became popular.
This is the power of the system, or the power of Su Yi’s reputation and the system!
It seems that there is something arranged somewhere.
Liu Shishi made an exception and obtained the Golden Eagle Queen, which had little reputation among the people but had great institutional value.
Therefore, she is the best candidate, and the superiors are very satisfied with Su Yi's choice of spokesperson.
There is no scandal, and everything is consistent.
The official traffic is terrifying enough, and with Su Yi's promotion, Liu Shishi may be too busy to get away from him in a short period of time.
And this time the four ‘agents’ of the International Channel will also visit Dianzhou in depth and promote the new Dianzhou from all angles.
As a spokesperson, Liu Shishi must also appear on the scene.
Suddenly, Liu Shishi appeared in news and entertainment newspapers for a week.
This golden eagle goddess, a dancer-turned-actor, shines!
Liu Shishi’s mother was also shocked when she looked at the newspaper in her hand.
"Shi Shi, have you confirmed your relationship with Su Yi?"
It wasn't Liu Shishi's mother who insisted on sending her daughter away.
But this time Liu Shishi's popularity increased too quickly.
It's like riding a rocket.
It is already well-known, but it is not well-known by everyone.
You can see the beautiful photos of your daughter in the newspaper almost every day.
Relatives in my hometown also called and said that Shi Shi was making a difference and had become a tourism spokesperson.
In the eyes of most people, this is more 'valuable' than Chanel's chief spokesperson.
"Mom, don't talk nonsense at this time. There are many people staring at the senior."
Liu Shishi said helplessly.
Although she is not married to Su Yi, she does not want to become famous in this way - but I have to say that with the promotion of Su Yi's blog, the effect is really good.
"Okay, okay, I'm not talking nonsense. When I was asked outside, I said it was because of work needs. I didn't tell you nonsense - but I have to thank you for this matter."
Liu Shishi's mother said with a smile.
"The senior has left. He went abroad. Let's talk about it when we come back."
Gone?
Liu Shishi’s mother was a bit speechless.
This is too busy.
Even though he is not a son-in-law yet, he still feels a little distressed.
“There can’t be any danger, right?”
Liu Shishi’s father was also a little curious as to what Su Yi was doing.
This Dianzhou propaganda was very beautifully done.
And I have been promoted within the system. It is the time when I should be stable. Why did I go abroad?
"He who can do it has to work hard. Going abroad is about the movie - Mom and Dad, please come with me to Dianzhou this time. It will probably take a while to shoot. It was a bit too rushed last time, so we have to promote it well this time ”
····
The end of July.
On the plane to the Star Flag Country.
Su Yi did not go alone this time. Last time, he was accompanied by Liu Yifei.
This time it was Han Sanping, the chairman of China Film Group.
There is also an old man wearing glasses and first aid items next to him.
Xie Jin, one of the vice presidents of the Film Association!
"Director Xie, if you feel a little uncomfortable, just say it and don't delay. If it hadn't been for Chairman Han this time, you wouldn't have been able to get on the plane despite your physical report."
Su Yi was lying in the comfortable business class cabin. Not to mention how tired he was during this period, he was still struggling.
Domestic audiences are comfortable watching it, but Su Yi has never been idle.
"Thank you, Xiao Han. You granted my old man a wish."
Xie Jin said with a smile.
He has a heart problem. He seems to be in good spirits at ordinary times, but most of this disease occurs suddenly.
Xie Jin in later generations died of heart problems.
Su Yi's departure this time was quite sudden, as he received a call from Warner Brothers.
In fact, it delayed them for a long time. Su Yi always owed favors.
After all, the cameras for Changjin Lake and Earthshaking were all provided by Warner.
To be honest, there is some pressure.
After all, Hollywood is very unhappy with the so-called "pro-dragon" behavior.
However, Warner only explained that they charged a high fee and they just wanted to make money.
If Su Yi never goes, their movie will not be able to start shooting, and their company will even be investigated by then.
Su Yi knew what was going on, and Warner had been investigated before.
During the filming of 12 Years a Slave, we evened it out through relationships.
But what happened later was too big. Several of Warner's movies were even boycotted by another group of racists.
Fortunately, it was finally resolved.
Warner Pictures saw some recovery in funding and immediately began planning to film the second Batman movie.
In fact, according to the original historical timeline, this movie has already been released.
And Heathless, the actor who played the clown, has died after accidentally taking medicine.
But in this world, Nolan has not collaborated with Warner on Batman works.
After the last Batman film was filmed, the response was mediocre. Because the script was hastily chosen, it didn't have the same "scenery" as in the previous life.
With the current economic crisis, the North American market is not doing very well either.
In fact, if I hadn't seen the huge potential of the Longguo market, I wouldn't have chosen Su Yi because it was too risky.
This is not because of Su Yilong’s identity, they won’t even use a director other than a white man! Because the global market does not believe that anyone other than white people can make such a movie.
Once upon a time, the so-called ‘blockbusters’ in the eyes of the people of the Dragon Kingdom were all foreign films.
Many people are even used to reading English and Chinese subtitles. Later, even when they watch pirated versions, they are looking for the "original" English version.
Later, with the rise of domestic films, I slowly went to the cinema
to watch blockbusters shot in my own country!
But Su Yi stimulated Longguo’s market in advance and opened up the third market besides North America and Europe!
This achievement is enough for Su Yi to be favored by more film companies.
But Su Yi owed a favor, and because he was rescuing the disaster area, he was anxious to take pictures of the earth-shattering things, which delayed a lot of progress.
This time Warner also sided with Su Yi regarding Sharon Stone.
No matter what, this is what I have to shoot.
Marvel movies are about to start to flourish. Iron Man has won a lot of box office, and it was also released at the same time as Su Yi's Earthshaking.
I don’t know if Marvel is unlucky or Disney is unlucky.
Obviously I respect the audience of Dragon Kingdom very much, the release date in North America is May 2nd, and the release date in Dragon Kingdom is April 30th!
But he was completely defeated by Su Yi's earth-shattering performance.
The box office was also a mess, far from the good results of the previous life.
To be honest, the movie is pretty good. It can be regarded as creating the multiverse of Marvel comics and opening the door to superheroes.
However, Su Yi's "weird" natural disaster movie predicts the future. Even if the content of the movie is not polished, it still manages to defeat Iron Man.
Although the ratings are a little worse than Iron Man, it still changed the history of the film industry.
So when Warner saw that LV had regressed, it strengthened its confidence and became anxious.
After all, there are enemies surrounding us.
After all, it is a movie about Batman, and the original work is very classic, so Su Yi also wants to try it.
As the president of the Dragon Kingdom's Film Association, his status rose instantly after experiencing the comprehensive boycott of the Sharon Stone incident. Even when some senior directors mentioned Su Yi, they gave him a thumbs up.
This time, he has completely stepped out of the Beijing circle and become famous in the entire Chinese director circle.
But Su Yi understands that his growth rate is too fast and he has never made many types of movies. In fact, he still has shortcomings.
Especially action drama movies about superheroes like Batman.
Having this experience will be very helpful for creating your own country’s ‘superhero’ movies in the future.
When Xie Jin heard that it would be filmed in multiple countries, and that the starring role was still the little boy who filmed "Empire of the Sun", he immediately expressed his intention to follow.
He even went so far as to find Han Sanping to help him. His heart problem might lead to a life crisis, but he still had no hesitation.
In Xie Jin’s words, this is the only chance, and it is also an opportunity for God to ‘reward’ him.
He knew that he was not even qualified to be an executive director, and he came here just to witness Su Yi's journey of creating miracles!
"Don't worry, Director Su. Even if I die on the road this time, I have no regrets. This is my life too!"
Xie Jin doesn't have any airs, he knows that there will be outstanding people in every era.
The sun has set on him, and his era has long passed. The cynical and stupid young man now admires this young man very much, and he has no ambition at all, and even looks up to him.
"Thank you, Director, don't thank me. I still have some respect at home, but not as good as Director Su abroad."
Han Sanping smiled, with a smile in his eyes.
This time he went with him, naturally he was not full.
But I want to talk about the release of the movie in the Dragon Kingdom. He also attaches great importance to this movie. Although it is not a Sino-US cooperation, it is still very important.
After all, Su Yi is now a favorite in the leader's eyes.
This trip to Dianzhou is evident.
In 2005, the first episode of the program would have been strangled to death!
But with Su Yi, the journey is smooth!
Even the publicity leaders personally reviewed it!
This honor is unique!
"Please stop flattering me. Unfortunately, the domestic tourism industry has just changed. Dianzhou Tourism has invited me to go again. I think I will be able to 'enjoy' it this time."
Su Yi stretched out. They were all on his own and had nothing to carry.
The relationship between Han Sanping and Su Yi is even more so.
"Haha, this trip to Dianzhou was indeed turned upside down! So happy! Now I know why the leaders didn't leave you at the National Film Bureau. It's really a waste of talent! You have a longer road in the publicity department and can make more changes. Many, many industries.”
Han Sanping thought about the past two years carefully.
The film industry has undergone earth-shaking changes, and so have other industries.
It’s all thanks to this kid!
He smiled bitterly, what an incredible young man.
I don’t know how far it will go in the future!
····
Warner Pictures.
"Hahaha! Director Su Yi! My old friend!"
Dian had a smile on her face and hugged her as soon as she came up.
It can be seen that he is looking forward to this cooperation.
"Mr. Diane, I haven't thanked you for what happened last time about Sharon Stone."
The other party could respond quickly, and Su Yi knew that this was considered a sign of respect for him. After all, they think Su Yi or Long Guo's market is more worthy of their friendship.
"Although we at Warner are also in business, we still respect life after all. We will not use such actresses. Not now and not in the future."
Banned Are these two words hot words?
Su Yi felt a little helpless in his heart, and knew that the other party was here to take credit.
But this favor must still be given.
“Because I have experience shooting IMAX·3D movies before, I plan to use a 3D camera to shoot the entire process this time.”
The two quickly got to the point.
The whole journey?
Diane was startled.
The money they are prepared to invest is US$150 million.
This is already a lot!
The investment in the future Iron Man 3 is only US$200 million.
X-Men Days of Future Past also cost $200 million.
That was already a few years into film investing.
This year is 2008!
But even in 2008, US$200 million was not enough to shoot the whole thing with 3D cameras!
"Director Su Yi, I want to apply for this."
I originally thought that 150 million US dollars would be enough.
Xie Jin on the side was even more speechless when he heard it.
$200 million!
When Spielberg filmed Empire of the Sun in 1987, he invested US$25 million.
Xie Jin still remembers the shock it gave the Dragon Kingdom film industry at that time.
Han Sanping on the side also sighed. After all, the total investment in film in the country at that time was not 25 million US dollars per year.
Now Su Yi says that US$150 million is far from enough.
The impact on them was naturally huge.
All of this seems to be the will of God.
Empire of the Sun was originally invested by Warner.
The original starring role was also Christian Bale, the protagonist of the Batman trilogy.
He is still the protagonist of "The Dark Knight".
Xie Jin was watching from a distance, but now he is sitting face to face.
Although he is not the protagonist, he is still very excited.
After 21 years of longing, my wish has finally come true!
“I heard that our director is here. I can’t wait to meet him——”
A slightly magnetic voice sounded.
Starring the Batman trilogy: Christian Bale!
The kid from Empire of the Sun will also be a foreigner in the future "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" filmed by Zhang Yimou.
“Hello! Director Su Yi, let me introduce myself——”
“You are Batman. I know that in 2004——I watched your movie.”
Su Yi's English is not very professional, but there is no obstacle in communication.
Christian held Su Yi's hand with some surprise. When he found out that the director was from the Dragon Kingdom, he was also a little surprised.
And I was even more happy when I knew that Su Yi had no plans to replace him.
He knows that the film market in Long Kingdom is very good now.
And Su Yi is also very famous, not to mention that Su Yi's rectification of the tourism industry has turned the country upside down.
Sharon Stone’s previous incident was also a hot topic abroad!
"I am honored to be able to participate in your movie."
Xie Jin looked at the excited Christian and sighed in his heart, that kid who could only see him from a distance back then.
It has grown so big now.
"I am Robinson, the creator of the Joker character. I am also the screenwriter of this movie and I am honored to work with you, but in terms of shaping the character of the Joker, I think there can be a little more -"< br>
Another Robinson with a serious face also came over.
This man is indeed the father of clowns.
Among the top 100 comic book villains in North America, the Joker ranks first!
But he seemed to have a lot to say to Su Yi, so he said a polite word and went straight to the topic!
Di An coughed lightly and said nothing, because he knew that this group of people had become stubborn, and even the mad cows in Spain could not scare them away.
