Chapter 25 Quickly Finished 【Please recommend for collection】

[Story value]: 3513
In the evening, after dinner.

Zhao Yuan returned to the tent prepared for him by the crew, lay on the sleeping bag, but unconsciously looked at the data on the broken panel of the system.

After "Strange Bar", he has not created any new scripts for evolution, and the two scripts in reality are still in the preparation stage, so naturally there is no [plot value] accounted for.

"Maybe, I can..."

Thoughts flashed through his mind.

However, Zhao Yuan soon shook his head and gave up the idea of ​​evolving the script during the filming of "The Blair Witch".

The reason why he chose the movie "The Blair Witch" for shooting is to obtain [plot value] as quickly as possible and promote the evolution of the next script.

That being the case, for Zhao Yuan at this stage, the sooner "The Blair Witch" is released, the better, because only in this way can he get the [plot value] points of this movie as soon as possible.

And the script evolved by the system was interspersed in the filming process.

Although [plot value] can be obtained, it is also very possible, and it may not necessarily affect the normal shooting progress of "The Blair Witch".

This point alone is not acceptable to Zhao Yuan.

After all, judging from how smoothly the shooting of "The Blair Witch" is currently going, it only takes two or three days to complete it smoothly, and inserting an evolving script at this time will only make the originally smooth shooting a problem.

Therefore, instead of coveting this wave of [plot value], it is better to play it safe and wait until the movie is officially released.

By convincing himself with the reason that filming is the most important thing, Zhao Yuan also felt a little regretful.

In fact, he really wanted to see how the crew of "The Blair Witch" would react when they encountered a real horror event during the filming of a horror movie.

Unfortunately, the reality did not allow it, so he could only reluctantly give up this plan.

Looking away from the data panel of the system, Zhao Yuan opened the zipper of the tent, looked at the scene of the forest all around, and then looked up at the tent where the crew and actors were not far away, and felt that he had to do something, Such a unique environment cannot be wasted.

Thinking of this, he quickly found the executive director of the crew who was also resting in the tent next to him, and explained a few words to him.

"Ah~~"

A few minutes later, several shrill screams resounded throughout the forest.

"A few more useful shots were captured."

Hearing the screams coming from the direction of the actor's tent, Zhao Yuan stretched out his hand to give a thumbs up to the executive director in the dark, and nodded with satisfaction.

……

"The website related to "The Blair Witch" has been completed, and various news reports about the missing person, as well as the missing person's manuscripts, photos, family members and other materials have also been prepared and uploaded to the website according to the date of compilation... At the same time, for the offline part, Universal has also arranged for special staff to anonymously publish the "missing person notice" of the missing person in various weekly magazines, magazines and video stores. At present, some website visitors and the public have known about it. Related information about witches, but obviously, they are not interested in everything about witches..."

New York, Universal Pictures.

Ron Meyer's film producer, Universal Pictures, is in the early stages of planning for "The Blair Witch" in an orderly manner according to the publicity plan proposed by Zhao Yuan.

"Maybe, you can arrange some people to put the topic of witches in the popular online communities."

Macari State, the small town of Buzizville, in the forest.

On the shooting site of "The Blair Witch", Zhao Yuan received a call from Universal and quickly proposed his own solution.

Simply put, it is the direction of the wind.

In the world of the Internet, human herd mentality has been magnified to the extreme. Often a simple topic or even a behavior pattern will become a "hotness" that a small number of people flock to after being spread through the Internet. It will affect more people and become the 'popular' that people say.

This 'popular' power is far more contagious than what the naked eye can see, and even at a certain point in the future, it will push a real estate agent who knows everything to understand the entire United States.

Of course, right now, Zhao Yuan doesn't need that level of internet popularity.

For "The Blair Witch", it only needs to spark the topic of 'witches' in a small area in the United States, and it will be enough to support the movie when it is released.

As for the future, even if the witch's secret is discovered, it doesn't matter.

Because, the box office that should be sold has already been in his pocket.

"I will arrange technical personnel to 'publicize'."

From the perspective of Hollywood history, "The Blair Witch" is definitely a special movie.

It was filmed with very little cost, but it spent several times the cost in publicity.

Of course, even if it is several times, this publicity fee is still very 'cheap' in Ron Meyer's view.

With such a cheap cost, as long as "The Blair Witch" can reach more than [-]% of the moviegoers in theaters, the movie will be able to recoup its cost and bring a certain degree of income to Universal.

That's right, even Ron Meyer, who maintains confidence in Zhao Yuan's viral propaganda method.

It is absolutely unexpected that "The Blair Witch" can do more than just pay back.

"How long will it take for the filming of "The Witch", Alan?"

"You know, it is impossible for us to maintain the promotion of the movie without attracting the attention of the federation. Once the federation responds to "The Blair Witch", Universal must clarify this..."

The side-effects of "The Blair Witch" are always side effects.

"Two days at most, after the part of 'The Witch' is finished shooting tonight, "The Blair Witch" can be ready to wrap up."

In front of the forest cabin, Zhao Yuan looked at several temporary graves, and calculated.

The progress of "The Blair Witch" has been going smoothly. Under the premise of not pursuing acting skills, as long as the leading actors don't show outrageous performances in front of the camera or show off scenes, the filming can continue.

This kind of rough shooting method can't even be called a movie.

It's no wonder that the original director of "The Blair Witch" didn't have any outstanding performances after shooting this movie.

"..."

Although, the shooting of "The Blair Witch" has been expected to be very fast.

But Zhao Yuan's answer still surprised Ron Meyer.

On the other end of the phone, he froze for a moment before speaking.

"Actually, the promotion of "The Witch" will take a while to spread, Alan, you don't need to be in such a hurry to finish the movie."

When he said this, even Ron Meyer himself felt a little inconsistent.

As vice president of Universal Distribution, he's used to delays caused by slow filming.

But it is the first time that such a fast shooting like "The Blair Witch" has been done.

"unnecessary."

However, in the face of Ron Meyer's concerns, Zhao Yuan on the other end refused without hesitation.

Ron Mayer: "..."

　Thanks for the reward of 100 starting coins.
