Chapter 545 Additional Announcement VS Premiere
The facts did not exceed Ningyuan's expectations. Today, most media interviews, including tourists, are only interested in Orlando.

If it wasn't Ning Yuan's request, as long as he didn't answer the topic of "The Lord of the Rings", Orlando might be led into a ditch by the reporter when he talked.

This time the reporter took a different approach: "Mr. Orlando, how do you think this pirate movie compares with the Lord of the Rings? Can it surpass the Lord of the Rings?"

Then he quickly added: "My question should not exceed your scope, right?"

Orlando: "Well, it's not easy to say until the result comes out."

"That is to say, do you think it is possible for this pirate movie to surpass Lord of the Rings?" The reporter followed up and asked.

Ning Yuan squinted at him, and could already imagine in his mind that after returning, this reporter would probably write news with headlines like "Orlando thinks pirates will surpass the Lord of the Rings".

Although this will also bring great hype to pirate movies, it is not what Ning Yuan wants.

And, there's the risk of backfiring—the Lord of the Rings is the third book, and the first two have allowed them to accumulate a large number of fans, so to speak, will make those hardcore fans feel a strong antipathy towards pirates.

Unless the quality of the pirates greatly surpasses that of the Lord of the Rings.

But this is impossible. The two movies are equally similar. Even in terms of fantasy elements, pirates are not as good as the Lord of the Rings, and the big scenes are not as cool as the Lord of the Rings.

At that time, under the bad comments from a large number of fans, although the pirates will not be defeated, it is impossible to say that they will lose [-] to [-] million box office... In short, this is a trap.

But for this reporter, the news he interviewed brought up the topic, and the sales of their newspaper will definitely increase greatly.

This bad embryo!

So Ning Yuan patted Orlando, motioned for himself to speak, then turned on the microphone and said:
"Mr. reporter, I think you made a mistake. The audience's expectations for a movie should be as many as possible, not the only one. Do you think I'm right?"

Interrupted abruptly by Ning Yuan, the reporter was stunned: "Eh...?"

"So, what we have to do is to make the audience like it, and there is no competition with any movie for ranking."

Some people whistled, some laughed, the reporter got bored and was about to ask more questions, but the microphone no longer belonged to him—it was impossible for a media to keep asking questions, this was an unspoken rule.

After that, some reporters also asked very unfriendly questions, such as: "Why does Disney's blockbuster movie, which is still a pirate movie, choose a Chinese as the leading role?"

The reporter looked around at the time, as if to gain a sense of recognition, and said: "As we all know, Huaxia was blasted away by cannons at sea."

There was a moment of silence at that time, because this was Huaxia's previous scar, and it was very likely that Ning Yuan would turn his face immediately.

But Ning Yuan didn't get angry, and stared at the reporter: "According to this, the Americans are even more unsuitable, because this continent was also blasted by artillery, and at least we drove the invaders away later."

Ning Yuan did not continue with the following words, because it was self-evident.

Of course, Ning Yuan has no scruples. The massacre of the Indians by the bandits was a madness. Although this is said to be a slap in the face in the United States, because it is an immigrant country, people do not have such a sense of common honor and disgrace. , but more selfish.

After a pause, Ning Yuan glanced around the audience and said:

"China has a long history of culture. As early as 2000 years ago in the Western Han Dynasty, China opened up the Maritime Silk Road, along the South China Sea, across the Strait of Malacca, to India today, and in the Eastern Han Dynasty more than 100 years later, it passed through the Arabian Sea. The Gulf of Aden, which is farther away, is recorded in history, which is too long before the age of great voyages. As for Zheng He’s voyages to the West 600 years ago, many people know about it, so I won’t say more.”

After a brief talk, Ning Yuan changed the subject:
"I said this just to show that it's not a problem to play this role, and to the audience, it doesn't matter who plays it, as long as the plot is good, what does it matter? Director Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won the award. the best film of Oscar?"

After these words, someone clapped their hands, and more and more people followed suit.

But Ning Yuan saw it.

The first one to applaud was Ning Yu who ran into the crowd without knowing when.

This made Ning Yuan dumbfounded, but it also showed that the herd effect works everywhere, especially the applause.

……

"The announcement must be vigorous!" Ning Yuan's unquestionable voice.

"You have to understand, the budget is not too much." Hai Mo looked at Ning Yuan speechlessly.

"That has to be done harder." Ning Yuan grabbed Haimo's shoulder: "You have to understand that it's the most critical time, and so much money has been spent in the past, if it is affected because of the final announcement, then the previous Isn’t money wasted for nothing?”

Looking directly at Hai Mo, Ning Yuan said: "The purpose of spending money is to earn more money."

Haimo broke Ning Yuan's hand and smiled bitterly: "You think I don't understand? I went to Disney, but they felt that the risk was not low, and the current market research, it seems that the acceptance rate is not as high as expected, so they hesitated. "

"What are these people thinking about all day long?" Ning Yuan was amused.

After thinking for a while, Ning Yuan said: "Let's do this, make a budget, and we will contribute according to the share."

"But—" Haimo wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ning Yuan:

"Listen to me."

Ning Yuan said: "If you don't want to take it, I will take it. If you make a lot of money by then, don't say I won't keep it for you."

"..."

Haimo looked at Ning Yuan, who was full of confidence, and there seemed to be some kind of wonderful brilliance in his eyes at that moment. What's the matter with a little admiration?

In the final result, according to Ning Yuan's requirements, that is, based on the strength of the announcement of the Lord of the Rings, they still need to add nearly 2000 million dollars.

Because of Ning Yuan's words, Disney finally gritted their teeth and took 1000 million. Haimo found another 200 million from somewhere, and the remaining 800 million...Because Han Ping and Jiang Zhiqiang also hesitated, they were just symbolic Added together and took 100 million, and finally 700 million Ningyuan said no problem.

According to the previous subscription share, Ning Yuan surpassed by a lot.

But he doesn't care, this year he has received a lot of money back, and there is no pressure. The key is that he is willing to sell a movie that is sure to be a hit, even if it sells iron.

Once the money is in place, everything is fine.

The vigorous publicity has begun—it’s not that the publicity is only 2000 million, but it’s an addition. If the previous budget is included, the publicity is more than 4000 million. After all, during the previous shooting, because of the progress and efficiency, the shooting cost was saved. Quite a lot, and many of them were evenly distributed.

Finally, the premiere is here!
