Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 169 Recommended Candidates

"Director Moran, do you have any thoughts on publicity?"

New Line executives desperately wanted her opinion.Not to mention anything else, just the promotion of the two films she has shown, each of which can be included in textbooks.Moreover, their analysts also believe that the so-called mysterious supernatural event of the death god is probably still a propaganda method.

Just looking at how many people already know the name and release date of the movie "Death is Coming", you can see how successful this promotion is.The most important thing is that the expenses are very low, almost all of which are spread by word of mouth, and some media fuel the flames.

Making the biggest impact with the smallest amount of money is nothing short of publicity genius.Regardless of whether this method was conceived by Laila or someone from Moran's group, they all wanted to get some hints through her.

How to say she is also one of the investors of this movie, the box office will determine whether she will earn or lose her investment.Even if it wasn't the propaganda method she came up with, I believe she will get some good ideas from the think tank, right?
Regarding his question, Lila still smiled faintly: "I think this movie already has a lot to promote, doesn't it?"

The people from the new line understood what she meant in an instant, and then laughed meaningfully with her.

They just like to work with such a smart director who has no old-fashioned temper. Since she has acquiesced that her name can be used for hype, then they will not be polite.

In Hollywood, if you are too high-minded, you will be rejected and looked down upon by others.From a certain point of view, Leila did have the heart of a businessman, and she could take advantage of herself without hesitation when faced with interests.For example, she made a bet with Cooper, didn't she just use herself to promote the movie from the side?
Same this time.She put in $1000 million, nearly a third of the investment.The higher the movie box office, the higher the return on her investment.Similarly, if the movie hits the market, her 1000 million is equivalent to being thrown into the water, and she can't even hear the sound.

In this case, she certainly didn't mind the other party using her name for publicity.

The highly anticipated fourth film by a talented director is also the first oriental kung fu film he directed.No matter where you look at it, this is a hot spot worth publicizing.In addition, the leading role is an Oriental, and the supporting role is a black actor, which can also be used for publicity.

In some people's minds, in this Hollywood where white people occupy the vast majority of the world, using Orientals and blacks as the leading actors is simply a shooting plan that can only be thought of when the brain is twitching.

And there is another reason why Leila agreed with their promotion, that is, her death is about to be released.With the help of the new line's publicity campaign, it is very cost-effective to let the God of Reaper follow suit to gain some popularity.

After talking for a few more words, Laila declined the dinner invitation from New Line on the grounds that she had an appointment, and was going to go home to turn the idea that came into her mind into a feasible plan.But before that, there is one small problem that needs to be solved.

"I want to find a suitable martial arts instructor. Do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?"

Before leaving, she found Chen Long.

Chen Long was a little curious: "Do you have any new film plans?" No wonder the outside world said that she is a prolific director, and she has released several works in a short period of time.This has just finished filming, and there are two more films that have not been released yet are there plans?

"Probably because this shooting made me very interested. I think my enthusiasm for kung fu movies has not dissipated." Laila shrugged: "If you are interested in something, you should finish it immediately. If you lose the opportunity due to an accident, That will be regretted for the rest of my life." This is also the feeling she felt the most when she was filming The God of Death.

Chen Long didn't know the plot of the god of death coming, so he took her words as emotion about her previous situation.If you think about it carefully, it is indeed the case. Life is short, and no one can tell when it will disappear.

"Of course, I know a lot of people, why don't you tell me what kind of kung fu you are more interested in, and I can recommend it to you?"

"That's fine. I want sharper moves, ones that are suitable for women, preferably Japanese styles, such as kendo."

Leila did not invite Chen Long to be the martial arts director of her new film because she knew that his focus was in Hollywood.Even if he reluctantly agrees to repay her favor, it will not be good for the relationship between the two parties, and she also thinks his style is not very suitable for the new movie.

It would be no problem for him to recommend personal candidates.No matter what, she is also a well-known director in Hollywood. In terms of fame alone, she is probably even better than those directors who have worked hard for decades.Being able to join her crew is an excellent opportunity for anyone from the East.

Hollywood is the film capital of the world, and I believe that no one in the film circle can refuse its attraction.Taking advantage of the opportunity to enter her film crew, entering Hollywood in one fell swoop is definitely not an impossible dream!
Chen Long also knew that this was a good opportunity, not only paving the way for his own people, but also deepening the communication with Laila.Therefore, he must make a decision more carefully, otherwise, if he introduces an unreliable person, it will not be friendship but enmity.

"I thought of a suitable person. His name is Hong Jinbao. He is my brother. He is best at Wing Chun, Jeet Kune Do and Karate, and has a lot of research on others."

Afraid that she would not understand those skills, he explained: "The founder of Wing Chun was a woman. This kind of boxing is soft but not weak, strong but not fierce. It pays attention to a clever word, which is very suitable for women and shorter men. Jeet Kune Do is the martial arts system created by Bruce Lee. It is an all-round fighting technique created by combining martial arts from all over the world, which emphasizes quick suppression and preemptive strikes. Karate is a martial art developed after Tang Shou was introduced to Japan."

"It is indeed a very suitable candidate." Lila nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, even if he didn't explain, she was very familiar with this Hong Jinbao.He once claimed to be the most nimble and fat man, he is capable of writing and martial arts, he can pick up a microphone as a director, and he can also pick up a stick as a martial arts instructor. He has won countless awards in later generations, and he is a very talented warrior.

Chen Long continued: "Coincidentally, he recently accepted the invitation of director Tang Jili to play an oriental policeman in a CBA TV series. If you are interested, I can contact you for a meeting."

"That's such a coincidence. If it's convenient, please help me ask his opinion. The new movie is also an idea that I just came up with. It will take some time to write the script, but it can be said that it is a A woman's revenge story, the kind that needs to be played hard, a lot of blood, a lot of opponents, a lot of fighting scenes."
