Chapter 1625 The most in film history
Throughout the entire history of the movie, no movie has ever been exposed before it is released, which can reach the level of "The Flying Tigers".
Li Mu took great pains to make this movie. Not only did he invest a lot of money, he also invited Hollywood's top production team and starring lineup. If he only did this, "The Flying Tigers" had nothing special about it. More importantly, Li Mu has been doing event marketing for this movie with a huge impact, and it has been far more than once.
At the earliest, in order to tear apart the fig leaf of "The Last Samurai", Li Mu launched a navy army, setting off a wave of opposing extreme Bushido on the global Internet and facing the history of World War II. It was also at that time that Li Mu just released "The Flying Tigers", making it a work that was completely opposite to "The Last Samurai". "The Last Samurai" was despicable, false and sinister, just set off the true historical label of "The Flying Tigers" being open and selfless and great. In that wave, "The Last Samurai" and the spirit of Bushido it tried to promote were defeated globally, and "The Flying Tigers" won a big victory.
Immediately afterwards, Li Mu promoted the "Veterless" charity activities in China, and even invited the members of the American Flying Tigers to China, and together with their Chinese comrades in the past, to Yun Province, where they once fought side by side with Chinese pilots. Whether it was the charity and charity activities of veterans' immortality or the Flying Tigers' Tour, it caused a huge response around the world, and even the response is still far-reaching. Not only China and the people of the United States are paying attention to veterans, but all just countries that have suffered wars in World War II have set off public welfare activities to pay attention to veterans.
Specifically for the Flying Tigers members' China Tour, in addition to the public welfare nature and historical significance of the event itself, "Flying Tigers" is simply the biggest winner. When American veterans arrived in China on Air China's shark paint 747, people from the world's news media knew the history of the Flying Tigers back then, which brought great promotion to "Flying Tigers" worldwide.
Now that the "Flying Tigers" has not been completed, Li Mu personally came to visit the set, and even put on the pilot's uniform and took such a passionate photo. This simply brought the attribute of its own traffic to the extreme.
When Li Mu and several other starring titters posted, the photo spread quickly in the Internet world at the speed of light. Not only did many media official accounts forward and support it, but many celebrities even reposted it spontaneously.
The highest forwarding rate of Chinese stars is. They not only give Li Mu face, but also express their patriotic spirit. After all, this movie almost follows the official history, fully reflecting the outstanding contributions made by the United States and Chinese soldiers to world peace during World War II, and fully demonstrating the sacrifices and efforts made by China to fight against Japanese aggression.
American celebrities are also extremely enthusiastic about forwarding this photo. For them, this is also a very righteous aid action in American history. As Americans, they are also proud of it.
In this way, this photo and the movie "Flying Tigers" have been amplified by the entire society, making it very popular on Weibo and Titter, setting the highest record since its launch.
At this time, after Li Mu and several other starring titters were released, they spread rapidly in the Internet world at the speed of light. Li Mu was enjoying a sumptuous dinner with the entire crew. Although the movie has not been completed, this dinner was almost equivalent to a celebration banquet that was completed.
The meals at this dinner were a combination of Chinese and Western styles. There were American meals cooked by the chefs from the United States, and there were also Yunsheng cuisine chefs found by the Chinese team from the local area. The chefs on both sides were very good in their skills and the cooperation was very harmonious.
Ning Hao, who was the deputy director of the crew, knew that Li Mu was coming, so he deliberately paid out of his own pocket and sent someone to buy a few boxes of Moutai from Chuncheng. Fortunately, although Moutai was expensive this year, it was not difficult to buy.
Seeing Ning Hao's Moutai liquor, Li Mu slapped his head and sighed that he had neglected. He only thought that there would be champagne and red wine for the celebration banquet, but forgot to prepare some excellent white wine for everyone.
Li Mu held a glass of champagne and thanked the core members of the crew one by one, saying: "Thank you for your efforts to this movie over the past period of time. I believe that everyone's efforts will definitely get the best reward. "The Flying Tigers" will definitely leave the most amazing mark in the history of world film!"
Everyone picked up their wine glasses, and their excitement was beyond words.
Teamwork is the most exciting. In the past few months, everyone has put in great energy and enthusiasm for this movie. It is the efforts of all of them. They pieced together this movie, which is expected to be in two and a half hours of market, after editing, it will be made into countless copies and sent to every corner of the world, and then presented all their efforts to audiences around the world through the theater projector. This is the charm of film art.
Spielberg was particularly excited. This Jewish old man who was usually quite calm is now extremely excited. He is the director and screenwriter of this movie, so he has a very deep personal emotion for this movie. In his eyes, it will be a film that has reached the pinnacle of his film career.
Especially after Spielberg witnessed Li Mu's crazily diverted traffic for this movie again and again, he became more determined in his opinion.
He is a big shot in the world's commercial film industry. He knows traffic too much and how important exposure is to a movie.
If every movie is a field of varying areas, and the size of each field depends on the total investment of the movie, then flow and exposure are the water sources that nourish this field.
The water source brought to the field of "Flying Tigers" is almost the same as the dam opening the gate and releasing water. This intensity is far greater than that of any commercial movie.
"topgun" once received strong support from the US military, and with the blessing of a big name like Tom Cruise, it is already the best "water source" in war-themed movies, but it is really a slight witch compared to "The Flying Tigers".
So, Spielberg was grateful to Li Mu. If it weren't for him, no one in the entire film industry could have nourished a movie to such an extent.
He raised his wine glass and said to Li Mu: "Mr. Li, cooperating with you is the most enjoyable experience in the years of your career. Thank you for all the help you have provided for this movie. I hope we can work harder in the future!"
Li Mu collided with his glass with a wine glass and said with a smile: "Stephen, our future cooperation will inevitably become closer and closer. After this movie is released, you have to delay your plan for the next movie first. Come to Yanjing, and let us implement the performance school together."
Li Mu has always been deeply jealous of the fact that most domestic actors actually don’t know how to act. When they are lucky, there are three or five people who can act in a movie or TV series. The remaining supporting roles and even extras are more awkward and out of the show. Even many so-called professional actors cannot reach the passing line.
To reverse such a situation, it is by no means possible to achieve it by strengthening the requirements for them. They have been in an environment where there are a large number of practitioners but not many people can act. This environment is too friendly to them because it is too easy to highlight them as "not that bad" or even "not bad". To give an inappropriate analogy, they are like healthy people among a group of disabled people. Because the overall competitiveness of the environment is very weak, even if they graduate from the film school, they can still run faster than most people as soon as they come out.
However, if the overall level of the entire environment can be continuously improved, and even more scientific methods can be used to provide a group of actors who are truly good at acting, it will not take long for these actors who are truly good at acting to become demon mirrors for those who are not motivated.
If there are ten young and acting actors in the Chinese film industry, the good days of those traffic stars will be greatly reduced;
If there are a hundred such actors in the Chinese film industry, the good days for traffic stars will come to an end.
Li Mu even felt that the reason why those traffic young actors who can’t act, sing, or dance are popular is because most of the actors have too inferior acting skills. For the audience, they all act very badly anyway, so they just look at the beautiful ones.
If the Chinese film and television industry is as professional as Hollywood, those young and handsome people with no traffic will basically not have any chance of becoming popular again.
Therefore, the performance academy must do things, and to do it, we will completely abandon the current set of things in China, like the best learning, copy the Hollywood actor training model, and directly introduce Hollywood talents to be responsible for teaching.
Of course, Spielberg remembered the agreement with Li Mu. He said almost without hesitation: "After the release of "The Flying Tigers", I will take at least half a year to help you build the performance school."
The two of them gently touched the glass and drank it all. Then Li Mu put down the glass and said, "It just so happened that our film and television base in Yanjing has started to start. At that time, our performance school will be built in the film and television base, which can be regarded as adding a project to the film and television base to make it more diversified."
After saying that, Li Mu looked at Tom Hanks and Leonardo again, and asked with a smile: "Are you two interested in taking the role of a visiting professor in our performance school in the future?"
"Of course I do!" Both of them agreed without thinking.
For celebrities, they like to get close to two types of people, one is rich and the other is resourceful. This is an eternal truth, both in China and in Hollywood.
Li Mu is the richest and most resourceful one. No actor who takes the business route will refuse the opportunity to cooperate with him.
At this time, Leonardo took the initiative to pour a glass of champagne for Li Mu, picked up the glass of wine himself, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I will give you a glass with Tom. As a visiting professor, don't forget us at that time."
