Chapter 93 Two-faced Man

The Silence of the Lambs was extremely successful and caused numerous controversies.

Many people wrote to Director Shen and said, you disappoint me, how could you wait like this...scaring children and so on.

Why don't you use actresses from the Ming Dynasty? Many of them have extended an olive branch to you.

Also, why does it feel a little dark?

However, these things cannot affect the expectations of the vast majority of viewers for the fifth part of Gotham.

Wow, this is the Gotham in our hearts, the crime city, isn't it?

The Donkey in the Farm, Director Shen Yuchen did not disappoint everyone's expectations. When The Silence of the Lambs had just finished filming, preparations for a new movie began.

Generally, it takes several months or even a year or two for a director to make a movie, and then it takes time to edit, publish, and publish. After passing the review, he still has to choose a schedule to avoid head-on confrontation with various masterpieces. At the same time, he also has to negotiate with distribution companies, theaters, etc. Maybe it won't be released until the next year or even several years later.

But Director Lv Shen in the farm is simply the flat-headed brother of the new era.

He shoots movies very quickly. Except for Saving Private Gordon, which took four months, other movies are usually shot and edited within two months. But now the review is more relaxed, and he has someone behind him to get through it. With the joints closed, it can be released at the fastest speed.

At the same time, he doesn't care at all about prime time, summer vacation, etc. He will release the film as soon as it is reviewed, and do everything for promotion in advance, just like an elephant wading through the mud, rushing forward, eager to present the film to the audience as soon as possible.

This is not a manifestation of profit maximization. If Director Shen belonged to a certain company, he would have been prevented from doing so. However, he was the big boss of his company and distributed the profits to many people, so he was not assassinated. You can also do this without any scruples.

Even the shareholders have remained silent... After all, if Director Shen wants to maximize his profits, the first thing he should do is kick everyone out, right?

Just one week after The Silence of the Lambs was released, Director Shen's press conference for his new film began.

The fifth installment of Gotham, called Fight Club, tells the story of Two-Face.

When Shen Yu hired people to draw comics about Batman, he made some changes. The origins of many characters were unclear, leaving them to free rein.

Some characters were added, such as the professor, who mentioned Barbara's mysterious friend, etc., but only said that he was a wanted criminal and did not say what crimes he had committed. However, Barbara would sometimes call to inquire about the case.

At the same time, some plots that were more perverted and that could easily be plagiarized were deleted.

For example, clowns, etc. were only briefly mentioned, but not described in detail, and the official version was not published until before the movie was released.

This time, the opening ceremony of the movie can no longer be unknown. After all, The Silence of the Lambs landed at the Ming Dynasty Film Market and topped the movie rankings in the first week, shocking everyone's attention.

The publicity for this movie was very average, and Shen Yu even did not publicize it to avoid a lot of trouble.

After all, the male protagonist of this movie is too scary and a lot of them are out of place. If it weren't for the tolerance of the cultural market and the road paved by Shen Yu before - Schindler's List, Silent Dawn here wouldn't make any money, but it would be a good success. Because of his fame and goodwill, he was pinched by the nose and passed the test.

After all, this is what happened in the decadent and backward United States. The male and female protagonists are all from the United States, right?

Then, it topped the box office rankings for a week in a row.

In this way, the fifth installment of Gotham has certainly received high hopes from many people.

This is no longer just a question of making money, but a question of promoting economic development.

The United States has worked hard to develop industry over the years, while working hard to increase employment and promote economic development. However, this road is too difficult and tiring, and it has to face the suppression of Ming Dynasty, so many places have turned their attention to culture and tourism.

However, the biggest problem between the Ming Dynasty and the United States is that it is too far away from Honolulu. After all, the population is too small. If a passenger from the Ming Dynasty departs from the mainland for the United States, the journey takes more than ten hours and has to transfer in Honolulu. In this case, it is better to go to Tianzhu , Southeast Asia and even Europe are actually more fragrant.

Tourists are judged by quality. It is obvious that the quality of tourists from Daming is better than those from South America.

There have not been many people traveling to the United States for a long time, but now, Director Shen has made a good start and attracted many tourists. Los Angeles will naturally give its full support. At the same time, I hope Shen Yu will not be so low-key and better promote it... …

Especially in Los Angeles, the ambitious mayor, when talking about the Gotham series, said that this is the business card of our city of Los Angeles, and welcomes the people of Ming Dynasty to come to travel and experience the original Gotham style, and this is really very effective. In the past year, the number of tourists in Los Angeles and Hollywood has tripled compared with previous years. The theaters are packed with seats every time they show. The local tourism industry is booming, and each of the B&Bs has made a lot of money.

This has given local officials more confidence. For example, someone proposed to build a Gotham amusement park with various characters and so on. The reason for this proposal is because the copyright belongs to Director Shen, and the movie series has not yet been filmed. End, but the popular tourist attraction in Los Angeles, Changfeng Film and Television Company, has an endless stream of tourists every day, and the profits from selling peripheral products are eye-catching.

Shen Yu didn't want to hold a press conference, he just wanted to start filming with the actors. However, many people said, Director Shen, our hotel, travel, souvenirs, including air tickets, etc., all depend on you. Give everyone some face.

The only depressing thing is Big Fei. After The Silence of the Lambs was released, his beef sales actually dropped a little bit...

"The new film is called Fight Club. It is an action film. It tells the story of a group of white-collar workers who work hard to exercise and run a club."

Shen Yu spoke politely to the reporters present, and then there was a round of boos.

Go ahead and lie to yourself, we will never believe you again, Director Shen.

Saving Private Gordon and Platoon are examples, as well as Silence of the Lambs. You've already done a lot of bad things, even if you're...

"This movie is still part of the Gotham series, the fifth one."

"Director Shen, is this still an inconspicuous role this time?"

"No, a very important criminal."

"Are they Two-Face, Penguin, Riddler, Joker or something else?"

"I think it's better to leave the situation in suspense."

"Excuse me, does this movie have a theme song?"

"I'm sorry, I don't have any inspiration yet. I may not have the theme song."

Shen Yu answered with a smile, and then briefly ended the press conference.

Compared to the enthusiasm of the people below, including investors, Shen Yu just wanted to say, I just want to make a good movie, but I really don’t need you to bring your own tap water to promote it for me.

As a conscientious and obsessive-compulsive person, Shen Yu will not let the quality of his movies deteriorate. This is not in line with his plan, but he also does not want every movie to be a hit.

Why bother?

What outsiders see is that Shen Yu is far-sighted and uses the investment amount to win-win with everyone, but in fact, Shen Yu just doesn't want to make so much money.

Who told you to let a poisonous weed like The Silence of the Lambs be released in Ming Dynasty, including Russia? You have banned it. I really don’t care whether you help or not, really.

He finished his speech in a hurry. Now let the mayor brag as hard as he can. Anyway, that's it. Let's find a way to free up the money...

It's a real toss, not a transfer.

well……

…

Santa Maria Hospital, Los Angeles.

Williams lay in the hospital, very depressed.

Director Shen held a press conference for his new film. As the leading actor, he did not attend. Of course, all the actors did not attend. Director Shen just accepted the interview and left.

The rest is the mayor's desperate advocacy.

Are there still media people who advocate that Director Shen doesn’t care about publicity and only cares about the quality of the film?

In fact, the real reason was that I ate a pie the day before yesterday, and there might be something wrong with the filling. As a result, I suffered from diarrhea and was sent to the hospital.

Sigh...I hope Director Shen won't blame him.

As a young artist who has been in the industry for several years and is not very popular, he has many dreams, and the most beautiful dream of this kind was to break out of Hollywood and walk on the red carpet in Ming Dynasty. But this year, everyone thinks, Director Shen is the golden one.

The Godfather brought Johnson back to life, Saving Private Gordon made a lot of people famous, and Schindler's List... made Constantine win the Best Actor Award at the most famous art festival in Europe.

He could remember that it was one afternoon when he received an interview notice, asking him to go to Changfeng Film and Television Company to interview for a supporting role.

When I walked into the room, I saw Director Shen sitting alone.

This was not in line with the interview rules at all, but his heart was beating loudly, not because he was afraid that Director Shen would unspoken rules for him, but because he had heard mysterious rumors.

Director Shen never engages in large-scale casting to suit the male and female protagonists. Instead, he decides on the male and female protagonists through private conversations.

Could it be that my luck has come?

Director Shen asked him to perform several performances and asked him many questions. At the end, Director Shen asked him that in three or four months, he would have a new movie to be shot, and asked him if he would be willing to be the leading actor?

Yes, of course I do.

He nodded desperately at that time, and then heard Director Shen's next instructions.

"You have three months to prepare a role, the role's positioning, identity, performance requirements, and reference movies. I put them in the folder for you to read carefully.

You need to do the following three things starting today.

First, deal with the things around you well. I am not asking you to break up with your girlfriend, nor am I asking you to cut off your relationship with your friends. I just hope that you can handle some messy things and avoid being entangled in scandals. After I reveal that you are the leading actor , many people will put you under a magnifying glass to watch.

If you have any trouble, go to the company's lawyer Nick, he will help you handle the relevant matters. Don't be afraid of spending money, it is nothing compared to your future.

Second, don’t make any announcements, let alone tell others that I chose you, don’t even mention it.
Chapter completed!
