Legendary Hollywood Producer

Chapter 22: Propaganda

In the morning, the sun has already begun to work, and the warm sun shines on the earth.

Roman drove to the headquarters of Paramount Pictures-Hollywood, Los Angeles.

In fact, among the top six Hollywood, only Paramount Pictures still stays in Hollywood (in a geographical sense), and several other companies have moved away from Hollywood.

Roman found a place to park his car and looked at the headquarters of Paramount Pictures.

It occupies a wide area, and the green that can be seen everywhere inside reflects the extraordinary style of Paramount Pictures. The main body of the European-style building, the exterior wall is made of stone, and the details are treated with carvings and lines, making it even more magnificent. In front of the gate, there are two symmetrical high and wide entrances and exits, which are illuminated by the mild summer sunshine in Los Angeles, which is quite luxurious.

Walking into Paramount Pictures, Roman followed the insiders to the conference room.

Today, he is here to discuss with Paramount the preliminary release plan. The movie "Infected" is about to come to an end. Except for a few scenes where the daughter survived and the police were not filmed, the rest have been filmed. Even Xu Jinglei and Wu Jing have already returned to the mainland. They will not be needed until the film is released, and they will be notified to come to Hollywood to promote them. The communication with the police and the renting of New York Grand Central Station for filming have not yet been settled. The police are very happy, and they don’t even need much money. New York Grand Central Station is more troublesome. The filming of the film is only after 3 am. At that time, the passenger flow was not that big. So it will take a week or so to get it done. After all, the shooting time given to New York Station is too little every day, and just a few shots will take so long.

However, the pre-publicity can indeed be prepared. After these shots are taken, the post-production progress will be accelerated. Director Joe Det Durbar has already started editing the film, and the soundtrack and subtitle processing are also in progress. Roman and Paramount have discussed the expected release date around June 5th. Their goal is also the summer vacation file, and now it has been. It's May 10th, and the pre-publicity can begin.

"Romain, my friend, come and sit down." George smiled and said to Roman who had walked in.

After sitting down, Roman exchanged a few words with George and started to get into the topic.

"George, how do you plan to promote it."

"First do some advertisements in some newspapers. Other outdoor hard advertisements will not be released on a large scale until two weeks before the release. Now they are only posters posted in some places with high traffic." This is also a common routine in Hollywood, Paramount Quite experienced, George continued, "I plan to hype the concept of zombies in the media first, and when it's about to be released, the audience has a goal in mind."

"It's a pretty good idea, Mr. George, but we can still hype it on the Internet. Now more and more young people like to go online."

"Well, yes." George also noticed the rise of the Internet, but his thinking still remained on the traditional propaganda, but anyway, he would not use too much money, and George agreed to Roman's suggestion.

"You can also hype a song, Mr. George, we can choose a song as the promotion song for the movie." Roman also thought about how to promote it, and it's one set after another.

"Do you have any suggestions?" George is naturally indispensable, Paramount used to do this often before, but George didn't find a suitable song.

"SomewhereOnlyWeKnow."

There is a Chinese name that only we know about. It is a song sung by the Ji Music Team. Romance heard this song by accident a few days ago, and a sense of familiarity was blown across his face.

Hearing this familiar melody in a street shop that day, the scene of listening to this song in my previous life came to mind again.

The conversation continues, "I intend to use this song as the theme song of the movie "The Infected", and I have already negotiated with their agency a few days ago." This is a good thing for both parties, and the film distributor will come up with it. Resources promote songs, and songs that become popular can also attract the attention of the audience, a win-win situation.

"OK, I will arrange it as soon as possible." Roman's suggestions are very good, and George felt that it was feasible after listening.

After discussing the movie with George again, Roman left.

Driving the car, Roman went to Grand Central Station in New York.

The crew was on the sidelines to sort out the things that were needed for the evening shooting, and Roman went straight to director Joe Det Durbar.

"How about it, is there a problem?"

"It's okay, you can set up the scene in the evening and shoot."

"What did the police say?"

"They are happy to cooperate." Besides, it's not that they don't pay those people. Joe Detduba thought in his heart that a group of LJ things, usually not seeing what you do, is a waste of taxpayers' money. , Vicious incidents occur every day in the United States.

"That's good, Joe, we have to speed up, or else the release schedule will be revised."

"Don't worry, Roman, the post-production of the film has already begun. When the remaining shots are finished, we will do our best to post-process the film to ensure that it will not delay the release." Joe Detduba is very confident.

"Ok."

After talking to Joe, Roman found Lamy again, and he was chatting with an officer at the station.

"Rami, who is this?"

"Mante, one of the people in charge of the station, I just discussed with him if he can give us more time to shoot."

"Mante, can you?" Roman also joined the question.

"It can be extended for an hour, Mr. Lamy, this is the best I can do, but after you finish filming, the disassembly scene must be fast, otherwise it will affect the normal operation of the station." Mante is not the same. The pedantic person, under Comrade Rami's Franklin, immediately indicated that he could extend it by an hour.

"Trouble you, Mr. Mante." The man on the side was also very acquainted. Seeing that he and the two obviously had something to discuss, he also found an excuse to say that the station still needs him to go around, so he greeted him and left.

"Lami, you have been working hard during this period of time. You still need to urge the crew to complete the filming as soon as possible, so that nothing goes wrong.

"Well, don't worry, Roman, I will seize the opportunity to urge everyone to shoot well."

Seeing that Lamy also understands the tension of time, Roman did not disturb everyone's work anymore. He greeted some of the crew members and promised that during the filming these days, everyone would have double the salary and gave a little money. After the motivation, the crew became more serious. This is the charm of Franklin.
