As night fell and the lights were on, more and more people gathered in Century City Plaza in Los Angeles.
The screens and related equipment used for outdoor screenings have long been set up. The Los Angeles Police Department also has related police forces deployed around it, and several broadcast vehicles from TV stations drove over, and the shots used for shooting were aimed at the crowds in the square.
"Who is Robert Ludren?"
A policeman in his early twenties asked his senior partner: "Why haven't I heard of such a writer? There are so many people who want to commemorate him?"
The number of people on the square is extremely large, centered on the front of the screen, there are thousands of people gathered.
"There are more and more people." The little policeman muttered, "Don't do anything."
One can imagine the pressure on the police for gatherings of this scale.
The senior policeman said: "It should be fine. This is an event for book fans to commemorate Robert Ludren."
The little policeman asked the previous question again: "Robert Lu Delun is so famous? There will be so many people publicly mourning him when he is dead?"
The veteran policeman shrugged: "I haven't heard of Robert Lu Delun before. It was only recently that I read the newspaper and learned about this writer and his works. I read the "Bourne" trilogy and it was really good."
Recently there have been too many media reports about commemorating Robert Ludren and the "Bourne Trilogy", and the little policeman has watched a lot and said: "I heard that the film adapted from "Bourne's Identity" will be released this month. Have time to check it out."
The senior policeman echoed: "I watched the trailer and I was very impressed. I have to watch it when the time is right."
In the square, many people held up the poster of Robert Lu Delun, lit the candle in their hand, and lit the candle like a star. It seemed that they were using this unique way to commemorate Robert Lu Delun, the father of modern political thrillers.
But the veteran police always feel that something is wrong. In memory of Robert Ludren, the film adaptation of "Bourne's Identity" will be released soon...
There seemed to be a line connecting him that he couldn't see clearly.
In the square, members of Robert Ludlen's book club were helping to maintain order, and at the same time, they distributed posters and candles to other people who came to participate in the event. More and more candles were lit.
A helicopter from a TV station flew across the sky, and this shot was taken from above. The candlelight connected to form a starry sky, which was particularly shocking.
At the place closest to the screen, the crowd cleverly stood to form a line of characters: Robert Ludren.
On the helicopter, the photographer in charge of shooting put away the camera, looked at the shooting lens, and said to Mike: "Okay, return home."
He glanced down again, this company really knows how to play, and all this propaganda is spent.
Tribute to Robert Lu Delun? It also deceives those outsiders, who can not be seen in the media, this is to promote the subsequent release of "The Bourne".
Having said that, the bottom line of Hollywood promotion is getting lower and lower.
Especially this embassy film industry, remember that "Blair the Witch" was released by them. In the past few months, they packaged Paris Hilton, a petite and wanton girl like Bai Fumei, to deceive others, and then they did it again. So it came out.
The cameraman shook his head. Because of his work in the TV station, he knew very well that the publicity effect this time was very good.
"What are you doing?" A curious passerby asked outside the square.
A young man holding a poster said: "In memory of Robert Lu Delun." He saw passers-by wondering, and explained: "Robert Lu Delun was a very powerful writer in the 1970s and 80s, recognized as the father of modern political thrillers, you can Go to see his work, I suggest to watch "Bourne's Identity" first..."
The scale of this mourning event was quite large, and many television stations reported it, attracting a large number of passersby.
When the big screen began to show the documentary produced by Shahai Entertainment, more and more people were attracted. Many people who had watched the documentary couldn’t help being curious and admiring. It turns out that Robert Ludren is such an amazing writer. The "En Trilogy" has such a profound impact...
In the evening, a special sky spotlight was set up on the tallest building in Century City to hit the sky with a beam of light. A line of bright characters appeared in the dark night: commemorate Robert Lu Delun!
On the largest and most conspicuous video billboard in the Century City Shopping Plaza opposite the Century City Plaza, a trailer of "The Bourne" was also shown.
At the beginning of the trailer, there was a very eye-catching line.
"I would like to use this film to commemorate Mr. Robert Ludren, the father of modern political thrillers!"
This event is just one of many events in the United States to commemorate Robert Ludren. From May to mid-June, many similar events were held across the United States.
On the Internet, with Robert Lu Delun's memorial website as the core and "Bourne's Identity" as the first promotion element, it has attracted the attention of countless netizens.
In any case, Robert Lutherland was indeed a very powerful writer in the 1980s.
Of course, this kind of operation can't escape the sight of discerning people, but no one publicly said anything, let alone mourning Robert Lu Delun wrong.
The society as a whole is extremely tolerant towards former outstanding figures who have passed away.
This can be said to be upright propaganda. The family of Robert Lu Delun is most likely to make unexpected noises, but the family of Robert Lu Delun also participated in the mourning activities.
"My father didn't really leave this world, he is still alive."
Facing the interview on the TV camera, Robert Lutherland’s son watched the crowd mourning his father and wept with excitement: “He lives in “Bourne’s Identity”, lives in “Bourne’s Hegemony”, and lives in every From the bottom of the heart of a reader who likes his works, I am proud of my father! My father will be proud of his achievements when he sees this scene!"
After three days of assault training by the embassy's film industry propaganda department, Robert Lu Delun’s son performed really well.
On the one hand, the true feelings were revealed, on the other hand, it was also infected by the atmosphere of the scene.
Such gatherings of large groups of people, as long as they are properly guided, certain fanaticism can spread too easily.
On the TV station, a documentary about Robert Ludren is also being broadcast, attracting as many potential audiences as possible.
For a commercial film, a dead celebrity is often more useful than a living star.
There has been a small wave of mourning about Robert Lu Delun, and even inertia. Even if someone wants to stop, it is difficult for the fans in it and even passers-by who later joined.
People who have passed away are too easy to be mythological. It is said that "Bourne's Identity" has created an era of spies. Now no one has stood up and opposed it publicly. Even if there is anything, we have to wait for this wave of public opinion to pass.
At the same time, the normal propaganda methods of Embassy Pictures are also being carried out, and various news about "The Bourne" is constantly being released. The main creators of the crew headed by Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon, in addition to participating Outside of Robert Ludren's commemoration, various propaganda has never stopped.
When participating in various publicity programs, the crew also tried their best to praise each other and to praise themselves.
Here, Paul Greengrass praised Matt Damon in an interview with Variety Show: “We made a great spy movie, full of horror, suspense, and breaking the norm. Choosing Matt as the lead actor has Challenging, but in the end he proved that it was a great choice, an interpretation of an anti-traditional screen action hero. I can’t wait to continue working with Matt on the next film."
Over there, when Matt Damon was interviewed by The Hollywood Reporter, he praised Paul Greengrass: "Before the audition, the producer Ronan Anderson called me and asked me to watch a movie called " In the movie "Ace Agent", I found that the film is so real that it feels like being on the scene. The director of the film is Paul. I immediately called Ronan after watching it. I must play Bourne. This role is mine. "
As for the actor, you can't take it seriously.
Compared to Paul Greengrass, a slightly conservative British director, Matt Damon, as a star actor, knows more about self-praising: "This time I have to break through the previous image because I look too young to Like a cold killer, this is a good opportunity to make a breakthrough. Before shooting, I received rigorous training in order to make my performance more convincing."
In order to promote the need, even Ronan, who has not always appeared in front of the media, also accepted an interview with ABC TV reporter as a producer, and emphasized Matt Damon: "From the beginning, I thought that Matt -Damon is suitable to play Byrne, this role is none other than him, because everyone knows that Matt's role is a good person, and Matt will project a kind of light so If he is allowed to play the omnipotent killer with a black background, then this role will be very playful."
Ronan will not be vague when he should roll up his sleeves.
Another key point in the publicity is to emphasize the difference between "The Bourneman" and the past special action movies.
"In order to create a real, documentary image style, the director used a handheld camera to shoot in most cases, softened the colors, and refused the intervention of the computer at any cost. All the special effects shots were real shots."
This will become one of the selling points of the series.
In addition, rub the hot spot when it is time to rub.
"Unlike the "007" series and the "Mission Impossible" series, all the devices used by Bourne in this film are real and can be bought by ordinary people."
On the third weekend of June, in a wave of public opinion mourning Robert Ludren, the world premiere of "The Bourne" also kicked off in North America.
