Heads Up Hollywood

Bill McNick is a meritorious veteran of Fox Pictures. With his qualifications, even if he messes up "Titanic", it will not have much impact on his status.

Just like in the previous life, reduce the capital investment in "Titanic", pull in other film companies to share risks, reduce publicity costs, sell distribution rights, and use a series of means to avoid the loss of Fox Pictures in advance.

But now is different. Bill McNick made a big mistake inexplicably. He arbitrarily appointed an 18-year-old child as the director!

For such a mistake, no matter how many legends he has on his credit, it is impossible for him to gain the trust of Murdoch and News Corp.

So now Bill McNick has only one way left, and that is to be wrong!

Put all the resources into the movie "Titanic", and use the powerful publicity and distribution capabilities of Fox Pictures to build momentum for the movie and make a complete turnaround!

Since some people think that he is blind, then Bill McNick wants to show them that he has a good eye!

Even if Bill McNick didn't know much about Dunn and trusted him, he had to stand behind him and support him.

Fortunately, this movie met Bill McNick's psychological expectations.

"Every night, I look at you, I perceive you, I cross the space of the mind, read your heart, and wait for your arrival..."

With the melodious and melodious singing of Celine Dion, the lights came on in the interior projection room of Fox Pictures.

I don't know who started first, and a series of warm applause resounded throughout the entire auditorium.

In addition to the senior management of Fox Films, there are some friends of Bill McNick in the circle. They all stood up and applauded.

This is a wonderful movie, no doubt about it!

Bill McNick breathed a sigh of relief. After a long time of mental stress, this moment finally eased a lot. With a happy smile on his face, he walked towards Cameron quickly, holding him with both hands, "Jammie, You've done a fantastic job, it's definitely the pinnacle of commercial filmmaking!"

Like Bill McNick, other professionals in the industry also got up one after another and walked towards Cameron, their eyes glowing with admiration.

"James, your movie has changed my view of special effects! I believe that this movie will mark a new era like "Star Wars"!"

"I admit, I have always recognized your ability, James. But I have to say, before this, I still underestimated you too much, this movie has extraordinary splendor!"

"I was stunned for three hours! Jamie, you know what, this movie gave me a sense of time and space dislocation, especially the last scene, Leonardo and Kate's performances, it's too wonderful!"

…

Almost everyone turned to James Cameron, the producer of the film, and the praise came one after another, and everyone shook hands with him excitedly.

Obviously, they don't believe that Dunn Walker, who is only 18 years old, can produce such profound, perfect and deeply rooted works.

Behind all this, it must be James Cameron!

Tang En looked at this scene with a smile, saying that it was not bitter would be a lie.

For this movie, he paid no less than Cameron!

Grant sighed and came to him, "Don, you are still young, as long as you have the strength, you will be recognized by everyone one day."

"I see."

Tang En heaved a sigh of relief, but instead laughed a little more at himself.

Isn't it just the approval of these Hollywood people, is it so necessary? Looking at the entire United States, how high is Hollywood?

Tang En has a great dream in his arms. He didn't come to Hollywood to work. He wanted to create a myth of his own!

As for these professionals who are flattering and flattering in Bill McNick's face, what are they?

No matter what, the director contract signed by Tang En is effective. After the basic salary of 5 million US dollars is received, the 10% of the global box office share will never be less.

This money will be his first pot of gold!

Jim Garnopoulos, the head of production at Fox Pictures, was happy on the outside, but equally gloomy on the inside.

"Titanic" is a good movie, which is not in his personal interests.

Once Bill McNick steps down, Tom Rothman, who will take over as CEO, has a good relationship with the big boss Murdoch, and is likely to take over as the president of Fox Pictures.

But looking at the current situation... No matter what the box office of "Titanic" will be after its release, it will definitely have a good reputation.

In fact, from Jim Garnopoulos' own point of view, this movie...not too bad at the box office.

"Tom, it seems that everyone is very optimistic about this movie." Jim Garnopoulos said to Tom Rothman with a smile.

Tom Rothman looked disdainful, "They don't represent the fans! This movie is over three hours long!"

Jim Garnopoulos smiled: "But the word of mouth will be very good, there should be no doubt."

Tom Rothman snorted coldly, "The Shawshank Redemption also has a good reputation!"

…

After leaving the theater, Cameron walked over with an embarrassed expression, "Don, I'm sorry."

Dunn understood what he meant, didn't care, smiled and said, "James, you deserve it."

Cameron looked a little annoyed, "They... they are age discrimination!"

Tang En shook his head, he didn't follow up, anyway, the money would be fine.

Cameron was still a little indignant, "Dawn, although there were some misunderstandings between us at first, I think it's been a pleasure to cooperate for the past six months, especially your judgment, which has proved to be very effective, I'm not as good as you at this point!"

Dunn waved his hand, "James, you know, I don't mind this. What I'm most concerned about now is whether the box office can reach 1.8 billion, so that people around the world will not see a joke!"

Cameron couldn't help laughing, "Who told you to talk big? But Bill has promised me that he will use all resources to promote "Titanic", and the overwhelming publicity campaign will continue until A month after the movie came out."

"Oh?" Dunn's eyes lit up, "Did he say how many theaters will there be in the first week?"

Cameron glanced at Dunn in confusion, "Does it need to be said? A commercial blockbuster with such a large investment can at least win 3,000 movie theaters? Maybe 3,500?"

Dunn laughed immediately, very happy.

His appearance, after all, changed history and changed the fate of "Titanic".

Historically, "Titanic" was released on Christmas, and the publicity was insufficient. There were only 2,800 theaters in the first week, and many people didn't even know that it was a romance film. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

So much so that the box office of such a blockbuster that shocked film history was only over 30 million US dollars in the first week, which was surprising.

Fortunately, relying on the movie's strong reputation, beautiful love, and shocking special effects, after a long period of population transmission, it finally formed a huge influence all over the world, and the box office blowout became out of control.

Seeing that Cameron and Dunn walked out of Fox Pictures hand in hand, several reporters immediately surrounded them.

"Mr. Cameron, what do you think of Director Walker's ability to direct?"

"Are you still dissatisfied that he robbed you of your directorship?"

"What do you think of Dunn's rhetoric with a guaranteed $1.8 billion?"

…

Cameron glanced at Dunn, who looked calm and seemed to have nothing to do with him, "The trailer of the movie will be logged on all major TV stations in the United States tonight, and I want to tell you that the movie is far more exciting than the trailer! As for Dunn... The box office and the quality of the film will speak for itself!"

"Mr. Walker, it is said that one of the producers of "Titanic", Mr. Jon Landau, does not recognize your ability and thinks that you are likely to screw up this century project. What do you think of this?"

"Jon Landau?"

Dunn and Cameron looked at each other and showed a bit of surprise.

Jon Landau was fired from Fox Pictures long ago, just for his reputation, not publicly. Unexpectedly, he would dare to rub off on the topic of "Titanic"?

"Want to step on me and climb up, Jon Landau, do you really think I'm so easy to bully?"

Tang En was faintly angry in his heart, but he didn't show it. He just said calmly, "Titanic, it won't sink!"

Sonorous and powerful, with a loud voice!
