"Go out of California and beat the whole of the United States!"

Starting the next day, Warner and Fox's media launched a huge round of early publicity for "Japan", and the slogan shouted by Fox TV soon became one of the popular words in North America.

"The young director Duke Rosenberg is full of creativity and destruction. After destroying Santa Monica in "Life and Death" and bombing San Francisco and Alcatraz Island in "The Slowest of Life and Death", he finally decided to leave California and lock in the whole of the United States in the new movie "Day". Perhaps the entire North American continent will sink in his endless explosion..."

Sitting on the bench on the campus, Erin put down the newspaper in her hand and asked Anna next to her, "Where is this crazy man going to blow up? The White House? The Statue of Liberty? Or the Empire State Building?"

"Hey, why didn't the newspaper mention the release time of the video?" Erin put away the newspaper in dissatisfaction.

"Can you be smarter, Miss Lauder?" Anna moved her butt and deliberately pulled a little further. "The film is called "Sun" and will definitely be released on the Sunday holiday."

"That's right." Erin nodded, "There will be no shortage of movies in July next year."

"Did you confirm there will be time?" Anna pushed her with her shoulders, "We will be internship after this semester. You should go back to the Lauder Group for internship?"

"Yes, mom asked me to go back to work in the family company." Erin sighed and asked, "Where are you, Anna, what are your plans? Go to Broadway or enter Hollywood?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Anna seemed to be thinking.

"Why not like this." Erin suggested randomly, "Don't you like Duke Rosenberg's movies too? Just go and join him, at least you can be an assistant director, right?"

"Hollywood is not as simple as you think."

Compared to Erin, who has a good background, Anna's eyes are more realistic. She didn't mention this aspect anymore and simply changed the topic, "Eileen, have you noticed that Duke Rosenberg seems to have fallen into a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" Erin didn't understand and shook her head.

"Yes, his first two films have achieved great commercial success, especially "Battle of the Deadly Island", which now has more than $355.6 million, which has exceeded the global box office of "Life and Death Hour".

As a top student at the New York University Film Production Institute, Anna can still analyze some of her own experiences, "His explosion, car chase and visual impact shots are indeed very attractive, but! These are all very pure sensory stimulations! It is easy to cause aesthetic fatigue! Duke's idea now is obviously to attract people with larger and more exciting explosion scenes. Perhaps "Day" will still succeed, but this success cannot be maintained for a long time."

Originally from a luxury family, Erin naturally understood the influence of aesthetic fatigue. After thinking about it, she finally nodded slowly.

"So, Duke must transform?" she asked.

"I think that's true."

This is a private conversation between friends, and Anna does not hide her random thoughts. "If "Day" only maintains the attendance and influence of his first two films, the market may also accommodate his next work of the same type. If "Day" is a super popular one, then his next movie must change his thinking and can no longer simply use explosion and visual impact as selling points, but should start more in terms of the story itself and emotional conflict, otherwise..."

She shrugged.

"Oh, Anna." Allen exclaimed, "You really should be a professional film critic."

"Professional film critics? They are all men who do not have real men. Function..."

Even though she was just a student who was still studying filmmaking, Anna still said with a strong disdain, "I just wanted to guide a real man to do love!"

Hearing the interesting words of his friend, Erin couldn't help laughing, then went over and hugged Anna, "I'm so happy to be with you, I can't bear to part with you."

"So too." Anna patted her on the back, "I will always remember that we watched movies together, laughed together, and cried together."

Duke, who is far away in Los Angeles, wouldn't know that a pair of fans in New York are worried about his future. The preparations for "Day" are more complicated than those of the past two movies.

"Hansen, I've seen the sketch you drew."

In the Japanese studio, Duke took a stack of drawings and just called up the heads of several departments such as special effects, art and painting, and said quickly and concisely, "The alien looks too simple and friendly!"

"Listen to my description!"

Although the same is true in the script, Duke specifically emphasized that it will definitely attract more attention. "They come from the red dwarf Grace galaxy 25 light years away, organic life forms, like locusts, multiple antennae, flat skulls, fragile bodies, and silent vocal structures."

"In terms of weapons, super large luxury mothership, large laser column launcher, green protective cover, small spacecraft!"

"Anyway, when I want the audience to see aliens at the first sight, they will feel disgusting, annoying, and disgusted, and they will think that they are a group of locust-like raiders!"

Seeing that all the responsible persons nodded solemnly, Duke waved his hand and asked them to leave and re-draw samples of aliens and motherships.

A fierce knock on the door sounded, and Sofia Coppola walked in without any nonsense, saying directly, "Warner and Fox temporarily finalized a $25 million promotional budget for the film. If you can control the final production cost within $90 million, they will invest another $10 million in the response after the film is released."

Duke nodded and said, "Continue."

"The prop group was rented to the interior of the White House, so we don't have to remade it, so we can save a lot of expenses."

This is good news, Sofia has not stopped, "The producers have decided to advertise during next year's Super Bowl. Also, ibm, Coca-Cola and Cadillac have decided to sponsor the filming. You'd better consider the scenes they appear as soon as possible so that the studio can yell at them."

"Let's go and see how Zach and their job are."

After Sophia finished speaking, Duke took the lead in pushing the door and left the office, and went directly to Zach Schneider, who led his assistant to make scene scripts.

Commercial movies require clear plot structure and no drag on the mud. The story summary of "Day" is very simple - aliens want to destroy humans, and humans fight back and finally win - the movie's footage script is designed around the crowd of counterattacks.

First choice, a mysterious spacecraft flew to Earth. Second, the government discovered that the Ministry of Defense and the White House took countermeasures. Third, the frustrated scientific genius played chess with his father to relieve boredom and discovered alien signals. Fourth, the Vietnam War pilot who was once captured by aliens for experiments took alcohol to relieve sorrows all day and worked in a mess. Fifth, the excellent Air Force pilot did not dislike her because her girlfriend was a stripper with children, and eventually came together.

This series of events has no direct connection at the beginning. Each event seems to be irrelevant, but none of them is a waste. And at the end, they have an irreplaceable role. With the attack of aliens, these events will eventually be intertwined.

Although this is a typical, cross-narrative technique, often used in movies, is indeed bland, but it is enough to tell the story clearly.

After asking Zach Schneider to find the right advertising insertion scene, Duke reviewed some scripts they formulated, returned to the office, and continued to think about the issue of filmmaking.

If a commercial movie wants to succeed, it is far from enough to just tell the story clearly. The most effective and powerful weapon is sensationalism! The so-called emotion of course refers to emotions!

Whether it is a line speech, action or explosion scene, it is to resonate with the audience and make most of the audience enter the theater feel happy and happy, rather than just like a literary movie, which makes the audience feel confused after watching it, which means that it is to take the initiative to drive most of the audience out.

Explosions and actions are the scenes that Duke is good at shooting now. In addition to these, the film also has the most basic sensational way, just like "The Speed ​​of Life and Death" and "The Brave of the Deadly Island", good will eventually defeat evil!

It is said that the most basic commercial film rule to demand the power of "good" to win in the end!

Perhaps many people will ask, why after watching so many movies, they rarely even never see bad people win? This is not because the filmmakers are kind-hearted and afraid that the audience will learn bad things, but because they cannot put the ending of "bad people win" in front of the audience based on commercial benefits.

No one can deny that most mainstream audiences cannot accept the ending of the bad guys' victory.

Although the movie is just a virtual world, the public still likes to see the evil of bad people eventually being defeated by justice, and bad people are punished as they deserve, just as the audience will not accept that Mickey Mouse becomes a murderer who does everything and Donald Duck becomes a robber.

Moreover, mainstream society also needs such movies that are actually full of fairy tales, subconsciously reminding people that they are not living in a dangerous society.

The preliminary preparations were tedious and repeated. Although Duke didn't have to do it himself, as the director who controlled the overall situation, every job was finally reviewed and approved by him and the two producers. He basically didn't have time to get off work. Finally, it was time to get off work and received a call from the Hollywood Liaison Office of the Pentagon.

"What? Not satisfied with the script?" Duke's eyebrows beat, "Do you want to remove Zone 51 and change the end of the final battle?"

"No, no, General Joseph, the one who destroyed the weapons of the alien spacecraft must be a civilian, not a president or an army!" Duke specifically emphasized, "This is the plot I carefully considered after design."

"Tomorrow? Will the Pentagon representative arrive in Los Angeles tomorrow?" Duke breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the name mentioned on the phone, "I will talk to Lieutenant Colonel Lunhoe in detail tomorrow."
