The richest man starts with a blind box

Chapter 758 Released at once [addition]

In the end Peter Jackson still took over the task, the reason is very simple, because TV directors are far less important than film directors.

And if it is the TV series version of "Gone with the Wind", it may only have a certain market in China. For Peter Jackson, it does not have much publicity effect.

But if it is adapted into a movie, it can be released in markets including Europe and the United States, which will greatly improve Peter Jackson's reputation, and this is the key that Peter Jackson cannot refuse.

Of course, for taking over the position of director, Peter Jackson still has the most important worry, that is, he is afraid that he will be scolded.

It’s not that Peter Jackson was worried about being scolded for the bad film, because he thought it was definitely one of the masterpieces in the history of sci-fi movies, and at least it would be a movie that could match Harry Potter. Ugly question.

The reason for being scolded is that this is a movie adapted from a TV series, one peach and two meals.Adapting a TV series that is provided for free on TV into a paid movie will definitely be scolded by people in Europe and the United States. Isn't this a clear scam?

Why can Chinese people watch it for free, but we European and American people need to pay to watch it?Is there such a reason in the world?

So Peter Jackson was very worried about this. He was worried that he would be scolded bloody, so he was still very hesitant.

But when he told Boss Huang about his concern, Boss Huang immediately patted his thigh and said that this problem is easy to solve, just change the order a little bit?

"What order?" Peter Jackson asked in a daze, and Boss Huang said with a smile, "My dear Mr. Director, it is true that a TV series will be scolded after it is adapted into a movie. But what if it is a movie adapted into a TV series?" ??"

"Huh?" Peter Jackson froze for a moment, and then heard Boss Huang continue to say, "I can do it like this, first tell all the audience that we are shooting a movie with two episodes, or a trilogy, or It's a six-episode movie."

"After the movie is released, we announced that this movie will be adapted into a 24-episode TV series. And this is definitely not a TV series for making money, because we will add hundreds of minutes of new plots, new special effects, and Branches of various stories and characters and so on.”

"With such a publicity, I heard that some people will scold us at that time?" Peter Jackson opened his mouth. He originally wanted to refute one or two things.

But when I think about it, when the audience learns that a movie has added a lot of plot and is broadcast as a TV series, I am afraid that few audiences will express anger. On the contrary, they will praise the conscience of the producer one by one.

"Even if it is a movie adaptation of a TV series, so many new shots and images are added to it, and the most important thing is that these shots and images have to be made with special effects that are not inferior to the movie level. This is the conscience of the industry! "

"No, even the conscience of the industry doesn't have this conscience!"

And all of this is just a reversal of the order of adaptation and promotion, the things are still the same as before.

In an instant, Peter Jackson felt that this routine was very clever.

However, Peter Jackson raised a new question and said, "Sir, if this is the case, then wouldn't our TV series have to be released for two or three years?"

"After all, if such a TV series is to be adapted into a movie, it will at least be a trilogy-scale movie. If one is released a year, it will take three years."

"It will be 2007 when the TV series is released, will this have a big impact on your plan?" Peter Jackson asked with a frown.

You know, according to the original plan, this TV series will be released in December.

"Well, the broadcasting time of the TV series can be postponed a little bit later, but I can't postpone it until 2007. This will seriously disrupt my plan. At most, it must be broadcast in the first half of 2005!" Boss Huang road.

"Then this movie adaptation plan will not work. There is not enough time at all. We can't just broadcast the first movie, and then directly broadcast all the TV series. The second and third movies will not be broadcast at all. Look!" Peter Jackson shook his head.

"Oh, my dear director, why are you still immersed in the world of Lord of the Rings and unable to leave?" Hearing Peter Jackson's words, Boss Huang spread his hands and said.

"What does this have to do with the Lord of the Rings?" Peter Jackson asked with wide-eyed eyes.

"Your Lord of the Rings trilogy has already been filmed a long time ago, but you insisted on dividing it into three parts and releasing one part every year. Am I right?" Huang He said.

"Is there any problem?" Peter Jackson asked angrily.

"Of course not, why do you make such a fuss about one movie every year? Why can't you release three movies in one go?" Boss Huang asked with a smile.

"Show three films in one go?" Rao was Peter Jackson, who was taken aback after hearing Boss Huang's suggestion.

In fact, in the film circle, it is actually very fast to be able to release a film at the rate of one film a year. You must know that most series of films are basically produced at a rate of one film every three years. In the later stage, there may even be one movie every five years, so his speed of one movie a year is definitely the speed of conscience.

But no one in this world has ever thought of releasing all three movies at once. This is something that has never happened since the birth of Hollywood. It sounds too nonsense.

Peter Jackson instinctively wanted to reject it, but Boss Huang said plausibly, "My dear Mr. Director, don't rush to deny things you have never seen before. How do you know that releasing three films in one go will lead to What about box office failure?"

"Now let's analyze it from the perspective of an audience. After you watched the first part of Lord of the Rings in a movie theater, would you like to be able to watch the second part right now, or wait for another year? what time?"

"Of course I saw the second part immediately!" Peter Jackson said without any hesitation, this is an answer that even a fool can get immediately.If you can see the second episode soon, no one will want to wait until a year later.

This is like an online novel. Would you like to see a novel with one chapter updated every day, or a novel with one chapter updated every year?I'm afraid that this novel has been kept in the bookshelf for a long time, and I have completely forgotten about this novel.

"Bingo, you are a professional director, you must know better than me. No matter how good a movie is, and how it can arouse the audience's aftertaste, it can usually only linger in the audience's mind for about three days. After three days, basically Forget about this movie, I won’t have the excitement I had back then! This time period is also the time period when I can’t wait to see the second part.”

"So if the second movie is released a year later, more than half of the audience who were lingering with passion in their hearts would have simply forgotten about this movie, and many people would not even go to the cinema to watch the second movie!"

"On the contrary, if you feel excited after watching the first movie, and you find that the second movie is playing in the auditorium next door, will you choose to go home now, or rush into the movie theater immediately and watch the second movie?" Has the Ministry also seen it?"

"This is the advantage of releasing the three films together. It can capture the enthusiasm of these audiences to the greatest extent, allowing them to watch all three films in a short period of time. It's so cool!" Boss Huang said.

"So that's how it is!" Boss Huang said, Peter Jackson suddenly felt that it made sense, and it really should be done like this.But he quickly shook his head and said, "You only said good things, but you didn't say that if the audience doesn't like the first part, he won't be interested in watching the second and third parts."

"That's true, but it seems like if the first movie is not good, the audience will wait a year to watch the second movie!" Boss Huang grinned and said, "This kind of routine is only for the best. I believe that our movies are the best, so I think we can use such a routine!"

"And at that time, there will be a brand new selling point in the promotion. It is the first series of movies in history to play three movies in one go, and it is also a brand new new work by you, an outstanding director who directed the Lord of the Rings trilogy!"

"Good guy, the fast and slow ones belong to you, and you have taken all the achievements!" When Boss Huang said this, Peter Jackson's blood boiled immediately, and he agreed without hesitation this time invitation to adapt.

I plan to spend another 4 months to come up with a complete set of trilogy with the existing materials, and Boss Huang, who successfully fooled Peter Jackson, is finally ready to return to China with satisfaction.

It's just that no one expected that before the departure, there was a small, but big enough event to form a thunderbolt in the entire Jiangnan Group.

"Boss, this is my resignation application! If there are no other questions, I hope to get your approval. If necessary, I can also complete the handover within half a year to help you train a new qualified secretary. !" In his office, Boss Huang opened his mouth in surprise, looking at the resignation application that the expressionless Hu Jing handed him.

The day before returning home, Hu Jing actually directly applied to Huang He for resignation.
