Chapter 1837

Thomas, with his eyes fixed on Lan Li, slowly stepped back from his body and made an invitation as the host.

Langley didn't say much. He just gave a sign to Thomas' jaw, and then to Bryce and others. He stepped forward and went straight in the direction of Thomas' sign; Then, Thomas and lenley walked side by side, and they left the shooting base and headed for the green far from the gulanni ranch.

The crew members standing in place looked at each other.

Langley has just appeared. They haven't had time to say hello before they were intercepted by Thomas? They look forward to the moment finally happened, but did not have time to enjoy, so they were interrupted? Their excitement and excitement were thus suspended in the air, just like the fireworks meeting that reached its climax was hit by a torrential rain. What should we do next? Thomas can't wait any longer!

It's hard to say.

Colin was a little confused. He watched the back of Langley and Thomas leaving uncertainly. A wave of worry began to surge up.

"Relax, relax! The last thing we need to worry about is Langley It was Jack who said, "on the contrary, in my opinion, Thomas's situation is a bit dangerous." Jack put his hands in front of him and stood beside Colin. He was also watching the direction of the two people's leaving. He turned slightly and looked like a man. "I don't know what Thomas is doing, but I don't think he can do it."

Bryce and Colin don't know what Jack is talking about at all. They can't keep up with each other. They both look at Jack with question marks.

Jack shrugged. "Don't look at me. I don't know what's going on, just guessing. " Looking at Bryce, who rolled a big white eye, Jack naturally said, "I'm not a genius. I'm just talking about things. I don't think Langley needs our worry. "

So, is this... Wise as a fool?

At this time, Langley and Thomas are another atmosphere.

Neither of them spoke. Thomas didn't seem to plan to be polite, and lanli didn't plan to extend an olive branch, so he let the atmosphere go on.

In such an atmosphere, it's often the one who wants to lose first. Thomas, who asked to talk alone today, is obviously the weak side. He thought that lenley would be eager and curious, but he didn't.

In fact, Langley completely calmed down and quietly enjoyed the scenery of gulanni ranch. His leisurely and contented manner seemed to be tourists coming for a walk. He enjoyed it and didn't pay any attention to Thomas's back looking and monitoring, which forced him to become passive.

"Fox

Thomas swore in his heart, but it's not unusual. He's had a deep enough experience in the past year, hasn't he? Many people think it's Andy Rogers who is behind the scenes to plan for Langley; But Thomas always firmly believes that Andy can't make his own decisions without Langley's instruction.

"Welcome to Honolulu." Thomas spoke after all, but he didn't hold back——

He hated the jungle and the ranch.

At this time, Thomas was wearing a suit made by hand in Italy. A pair of trousers alone cost 3000 US dollars, and he had to wait patiently. In order to wait for the suit, he had been waiting in line for more than 13 months. Now, this pair of trousers is walking through the grass?

He hates nature!

Every step he took, he felt that his legs began to itch. He always felt that some insects had penetrated into his trousers, or that his shoes and suit pants had been completely destroyed. Besides throwing them away, he seemed to have no other choice. Little by little, this idea was tormenting his nerves.

He endured and endured, but he was still unable to resist. Thomas opened his mouth like this, but even if he did, he didn't intend to bow his head. Instead, he began with a blunt and polite line - "welcome to Honolulu instead of" welcome to the cast. "The difference is that, Thomas is the producer of "Jurassic world", but not the city manager of Honolulu. This welcome reveals some reluctance.

Lan Li didn't respond, but just looked at him with a smile.

Thomas went on, "a lot of people on the crew are waiting for you and can't wait to get to work, which is a good thing for the crew. We've invested 150 million dollars, not to create another 'Prince of Persia'. We need everyone to devote themselves to this work. "

In 2010, Michael Bay, the top producer of "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, and Jerry brookheimer joined hands with Disney to produce "Prince of Persia: the blade of time". With the production cost of 200 million US dollars and the publicity cost of 50 million US dollars, they only got the bad box office data of 90 million US dollars in North America and 336 million US dollars in the world.

Even if Disney makes use of theme parks, computer games, peripheral products and so on to generate revenue, it still faces a loss of more than 80 million US dollars - if there is no such peripheral products, the loss will exceed 150 million US dollars. This is also before the loss of 200 million US dollars in 2012 for "super warship" and "alien battlefield", One of Disney's most costly works.

This is Jack Gyllenhaal's most heavily invested commercial work.

There are numerous cases of Hollywood's failed works, but at this time, Thomas chose "Prince of Persia" as a typical example. If there is nothing fishy in it, it is estimated that Thomas himself will be soft spoken.

But Langley didn't break it either, just waiting patiently for Thomas.

"Do you know why Prince Persia failed?" Thomas said excitedly, because Langley never spoke, the rhythm of the conversation finally entered the mode Thomas liked, and his mood gradually became excited, and his expression relaxed.

Langley shrugged, noncommittal.

Thomas didn't mind, either, and went on, "the failure of the propaganda strategy!" Thomas asked himself, "of course, the quality of the work is one of the important factors that can not be ignored, but before the official release of the work, before the box office broke out in the first week, the early publicity strategy of the work failed to catch the attention of the target group, which directly led to the decline of the film before the spread of word-of-mouth."

"Do you know why? Why did Disney make the wrong publicity strategy? " Thomas looks at Langley again and raises another question.

This time, Thomas didn't answer directly, but looked at blue Li intensely, as if hoping that blue Li could give an answer.

Lanli knows that the real meat is coming. Obviously, this is the focus Thomas wants to discuss - or, in other words, this issue will be the introduction, opening up the real theme of Thomas' conversation today.

But Langley did not answer, still smile to meet Thomas's eyes, waiting patiently.

Thomas said with a smile, "aren't you going to have a guess? Many people praise you in front of me. You are a young man with excellent intelligence and emotional intelligence. You show wisdom that does not match your age. Are you not going to show it now? "

The subtext is: you are so smart, don't you know?

Such a blatant provocation is too low for lanli. He doesn't even want to attack, because it seems to be bullying children. "To be modest in front of professionals is my education."

In other words, this means that Langley will not interfere in Thomas' work, and Thomas had better not interfere in Langley's work.

But Thomas didn't catch the meaning of the words - at least on the surface, he didn't understand, or he understood but pretended not to understand, "ha!" Thomas chuckled, then raised his jaw, unable to tell whether he was proud or proud, and gave the answer, "because of Jack Gyllenhaal."

As soon as the words came out, Thomas gave a meaningful look at Lan Li. The meaning of that look was so obvious that even an idiot could see it——

It's not just about Jack Gyllenhaal, it's about... You!

Langley and Jack Gyllenhaal are close friends. At the same time, the style of Langley and Jack Gyllenhaal is very similar. Will the failure of "Prince of Persia" become the failure of "Jurassic world"? If it can be avoided, will Langley stick to the same way as Jack Gyllenhaal?

In short, Thomas is actually warning Langley to pave the way for the follow-up discourse.

In the face of Thomas's frontal attack, Langley did not speak and did not respond, so he calmly met Thomas's line of sight, the clear and firm eyes gave a positive counterattack, not "I don't understand" but "so what".

This made Thomas's pupils slowly shrink, but his expression still didn't change much. He just went further and said, "at the beginning, Disney made a corresponding publicity plan, but Jack didn't want to cooperate. He firmly believed that he should speak with works, which also led to the collapse of word-of-mouth later."

"So we need to avoid that. Of course, I believe our works will have a good reputation; But before the works are officially released, there is no doubt about the importance of early publicity. " Thomas directly ignored the meaning of Langley's eyes, and talked on and on.

"We seriously discussed the way and content of early publicity, hoping to arrange according to the specific situation of the crew, especially according to your actual situation, hoping to find the most suitable publicity scheme. Believe me, we sincerely hope that the film can be a success, and we sincerely hope that you can benefit from it. We tried to find a mutually beneficial publicity program, and now we have it! "
