Chapter 160 The smartest place

Thirty seconds of time is enough to change a lot. Thirty seconds of time is too short for a film. The thirty second advertisement of "Save Private Ryan" in the Super Bowl halftime showcases the most real war and battlefield.

Super Bowl, a routine carnival day in North America every year. Even if you have no interest in American football, many people will sit in front of the TV to watch midfield advertising blockbusters and midfield performances, just like people on the other side of the Pacific watching a program one night. This is not only due to interest, but also seems to have become a habit.

In the luxury mansion in the Upper East Side of New York, Erin Lauder was sitting with his sister. It is estimated that after the first half of the Super Bowl, he immediately switched to ABC TV. They had no interest in the game themselves, and they just watched midfield advertisements when they switched to the station, because the advertisements not only included the latest advertising blockbusters of the Lauder Group, but also the new work advertisements of some Erin's favorite director.

"Irene, you seem to be overly obsessed with the director's work."

Hearing his sister's words, Erin Lauder shut up her up, "Jane, it's about to start!"

The one at the forefront of all movie advertisements is the advertisement for "Save Private Ryan". Erin widened her eyes and stared straight at the TV. Jane seemed to be influenced by her sister and stared at the TV very seriously.

Landing craft rushed towards the coast. The officers on the landing craft told the soldiers what to do. The soldiers kissed the cross, and then the door opened, bullets came, and the beach turned into hell on earth, with a blood-red tragic phenomenon.

Jane subconsciously covered her mouth, and Erin pursed her lips tightly...

He took his broken hand to look for the doctor, covered his stomach that had already come out of his intestines, and took off his helmet and was still saving his life just now. Another shot was made up, and soldiers fell in a pool of blood.

All the pictures tell the audience that this is the most realistic World War II!

The camera swayed silently, observing the war from the first perspective of the officer played by Tom Hanks, the real tragic phenomenon seemed to happen in front of them.

The reactions of the Lauder sisters were very different. Erin felt the impact and shock of the soul, but Jane just wanted to vomit...

In just thirty seconds, the advertisement only shows the landing battle. Although there are grand scenes and continuous explosions as always. Even outsiders like Erin find that Duke Rosenberg's style seems to have changed some changes?

There are no bright and thick colors like oil paintings, no short shots that quickly switch, no wide-angle pictures like poetry and picturesque, and no characters that can never be killed...

Erin suddenly remembered what his friend Anna said. If Duke succeeds in "Independence Day", he must make appropriate transformation. Since even Anna can see that the other party, as a professional director, seems to understand this very well. He is obviously a very calm and rational director.

If an ordinary young director makes such achievements as Duke, he will definitely lose his mind? He must think that his style is enough to conquer movie fans all over the world?

As soon as these thoughts popped up, Erin shook her head. This assumption was simply impossible. In this world, Duke Rosenberg was the only one who could create such incredible business achievements at such an age.

"Irene, you won't want to watch this movie then, right?" My sister's questioning sounded next to her.

"Why not?" Erin said for granted. "This is Duke Rosenberg's film, the work of a director who cannot be refused."

"I didn't expect you would have a day of worshiping idols."

"I just like his movies very much." Erin just smiled. "Don't you think Independence Day and "The Island of Deadly" are good?"

"But this movie..." Jian suppressed the vomiting feeling just now, "The colors are dim, the picture is cold, and it is too bloody, and there is no beauty of the two films at all."

"This is a war drama." Erin subconsciously defended, "Where is the beauty of war!"

"Aren't you working in the Brand Image Department now? I remember your department seems to have been looking for a suitable director for next year's advertising blockbusters?"

Jane Lauder, who is still in school, is simply giving a bad idea. "Why not invite Duke Rosenberg? His first few movies are like super long commercials. If he is invited to shoot our ads, the sensational effect alone is worth the price."

"It seems...is a good suggestion." Erin Lauder thought for a while, "I will ask my cousin."

She then asked, "I was distracted just now. I didn't see the release date of "Save Private Ryan."

"The North American screening will be released on May 26, a weekend before Memorial Day!"

This is the first time that "Save Private Ryan" has officially announced the release date. The selection of this date, not to mention the reactions of fans, has produced a strong response within Hollywood alone.

Universal Studios, Universal Studios' distribution department, immediately convened an emergency meeting after the Super Bowl, and even Ceo Ron Meyer attended the meeting specifically.

"I think it's very necessary to adjust the release time of "The Elf"!"

As the director of the distribution department, Justin Fellaini had a worry on his face, "Although our preliminary publicity has been going on, the release date has not been officially announced. Now, the Memorial Day schedule includes Mel Gibson's "Brave Heart" and Duke Rosenberg's "Save Private Ryan", which is already very crowded!"

He specifically emphasized, "Mer Gibson is okay. He has not proved himself in the director's terms, but Duke Rosenberg is the king of summer season in recent years!"

"A reminder," Deputy Director Belestein suddenly interrupted, ""The Ghost Elf" is a pg-level film, while "Save Soldier Ryan" must be R-level from the commercial released. The audiences of the two are completely different, we don't..."

"Sony Columbia Pictures thought so last year!"

Justin Fellaini directly interrupted him, his voice was extremely serious, "Is these bloody lessons not enough for "Night Visit to Vampire" to "Brave the Deadly Island" and "Shawshank Redemption" to "Independence Day"? We have not yet promoted the release time, and everything has to be adjusted. If we have spent a lot of resources and spent nearly half a year promoting the release of the video on May 26, I would not recommend adjusting the release time of "The Elf"!"

Opponents shut up for the time being, and others also chose to remain silent. The past three summer seasons, especially last year's summer season, Duke Rosenberg and his movies have proved the super power of this hot period. If it weren't forbidden to turn around like "Brave Heart", no one would want to take the initiative to touch him and his new works.

Everyone's eyes fell on Ron Mayer, and in the end he had to make a decision.

Sitting in the chair, Ron Meyer never spoke. As one of the five giants who once created the Caa, he knew Martin Bob's skills very well. Duke Rosenberg still rose rapidly under his suppression, which actually proved a very important thing - Duke Rosenberg is not just a successful director.

From his successful experience in the past few films, it is not difficult to see that this is a director who knows how to borrow and share benefits.

When he was not careful about "Life and Death Hour", he borrowed the power of Lucasfilm and 20th Century Fox to complete the first step of success; when he went to "Brave the Deadly Island", he used Warner to fight Fox and Caa, thus initially establishing his position in Hollywood; when he looked at "Independence Day", he abandoned his past grudges and brought Fox closer to the ranks of cooperation, and used the two giant platforms of News Corp and Time Warner to create a commercial record that science fiction movies have never had before!

These all show his rationality and intelligence. In the past, Hollywood also had directors who were relatively young and achieved good results, but why did those directors disappear into the long river of history? Because they are not like George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and James Cameron, who know how to share interests. They just had some capital, and they were impatient to set up their own business and wanted to challenge the existing order of Hollywood!

These stupid wastes were finally swept into the pile of old papers of history.

In contrast, although Duke Rosenberg established a duke studio, a discerning person could tell at a glance that it was just a shell company used to avoid taxes. He kept accepting investment from large companies, and while creating benefits for large companies, he was also using their power to escort his growth.

If he leaves a big company and makes movies independently, not to mention whether he will be excluded by traditional Hollywood forces, Martin Bob alone can force him into a desperate situation.

This should be the smartest thing about Duke Rosenberg! Ron Meyer sighed softly. The other party seemed to have no innocence that belonged to young people at all, and was very clear about the cruelty of Hollywood competition.

"Ron..."

After hearing Justin Fellaini's reminder, Ron Meyer immediately returned to the issue being discussed, which didn't need to be thought about at all. "Justin, "The Elf" was postponed and is looking for a suitable schedule in June. On Memorial Day, we will still be able to compete with "Brave Heart" and "Save Private Ryan."

The adaptation of "The Elf" is an auto-animated series. It does not require too much resources when promoting it. It does not have a strategy to use the release date, which makes Universal Pictures easy to adjust, but "Brave Heart" is not easy to turn around. Paramount not only used a lot of resources and invested millions of funds, but also made the release date early in the early promotion and Super Bowl advertisements. It is said that overseas marketing is also making plans according to the North American release date. Adjustments mean that all the preliminary work must be overturned and started over again!

That is, at the same time, in the conference room of Century City Caa, many people looked serious and nervous. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
