"Nate, try changing to lens 132..."

The time for get off work was long ago, but Sofia Coppola had no intention of leaving. She directed Natalie, who was a temporary guest editing, to constantly change the camera, "Switch the number 217 again, right! That's this little action."

“It looks much better.”

After adjusting the camera, Natalie thought, "Katniss entered this luxurious place for the first time, and used unconscious small movements to express her anxiety..."

Staring at herself in the LCD screen, she glanced at the female director beside her, "Sofia, it feels much better."

"Let's just be here today."

After taking a big sip of coffee, Sofia Coppola pinched her forehead and leaned on the back of the chair. "Nate, you are making great progress and you can operate a movie independently."

"Thanks."

Today's work ended here. Natalie cut off the power supply of several devices, picked up the coffee cup, and asked before drinking, "Are you under a lot of pressure?"

Sofia Coppola nodded, "Didn't you read the report that Ms. Kennedy brought? In addition to the $100 million production, Disney also prepared $120 million in publicity. Since I became a director, Ryan has helped me too much. If I messed up this time, I really don't know how to face him..."

Turning his head, Natalie frowned and looked at Sophia Coppola, shook her head secretly, and comforted, "Although we have only cut one-fifth, I think the film does have the desire to continue watching. Don't forget, Sophia, with Ryan's personality..."

She flattened her mouth and said, "If you can't see the possibility of profit, you will never invest such a huge amount of money."

"What you said makes sense." Sofia Coppola agreed with Natalie's opinion, and a smile broke out on her tired face. "Sometimes, my confidence in Ryan is stronger than myself!"

It was all the time. She added a sentence in her heart.

Natalie was slightly trampled. If it weren't for Ryan's support, how could she have made up her mind to enter the director circle so early; if it weren't for Ryan's support, how could the feature film she made with a lot of experimental flavor appear in theaters?

It is precisely because of Ryan that she never worried about what to do after she failed. She always believed that with Ryan's support, she would not fail.

"Carry it out, let's go."

After looking at the watch, Natalie stood up, "Ryan should be coming soon, it's getting late, let's go for a midnight snack together."

"OK."

Put on her coat, Sophia Coppola walked towards the door with her bag. After walking a few steps, the door opened and Ryan strode in.

"It seems that I'm coming at the right time?" Ryan made a move open the door and made a gesture of inviting him. "Moria Restaurant, I've booked a seat."

This is a typical French restaurant with delicious meals and a small portion of dinner. It is a place where many Hollywood female celebrities like to eat. The reserved location in the restaurant is very quiet, and a round mahogany dining table keeps enough distance from others.

Sitting at the dining table, Ryan and the other two enjoyed the meals they delivered one after another, while whispering to the topics they were interested in.

"Don't you feel that time is a little tight?" Sofia Coppola said seriously.

"Sofia."

Cut off a small piece of steak, Ryan raised his head, "I've seen your progress. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be done in mid-May, which is not considered overtime."

"Don't tell me, you want the movie to be released next May." This is her first big production after all, and Sophia also wants to have more time to meticulously craft it.

"I had this plan." Ryan ignored the two women who had wide eyes and put the cut steak into his mouth. After swallowing it, he said slowly, "But surprised to put "X-Men 3" in May. In order to avoid hitting the box office of this movie, I plan to put it in early June."

"Early June?" Sophia looked at Natalie, "I remember Scar said that DreamWorks' "Escape from the Clones" seemed to be in this period."

"That's right." Natalie nodded in agreement, holding the cup, "The second weekend of June."

"Then let's choose the first weekend of June to release it."

As the hottest summer season, it was the time for commercial blockbusters to be released in large numbers. Of course, Ryan had to pick the softest persimmon pinch, "I will notify Kate and Disney Pictures when I look back."

"Why not until August's release?" Sophia was obviously inconfident and said with a frown, "This is Michael Bay and DreamWorks working together to create a super masterpiece, I'm worried..."

"No, no, no..." Ryan shook his finger, "Sofia, they should be worried about, not us."

"You'll be sad if Scarlett says that." Natalie said with a pursed smile.

This is just a joke. She knew that as long as Ryan was still in Hollywood, the friends around him would never lack opportunities.

"Our video is aimed at teenagers and female audiences." Ryan felt sixty full, so he simply put down his knife and fork. "You may not have noticed that the sales of the original novel is now second only to "The Da Vinci Code". In addition, we have gathered the best group of young actors in Hollywood today in the movie. As long as the publicity is in place, the box office is definitely not a problem."

"You are so confident in me?" Sofia Coppola's brow gradually relaxed.

He shrugged gracefully, Ryan didn't say anything else. He had seen some of the samples cut by Sofia, and the effect was pretty good, at least not worse than the one in his previous life. On the basis of ensuring the most basic quality, how to do a good job of marketing is the key to the success of this series.

What Disney does not lack the most is the experience of promoting works among teenagers and female audiences.

Although the final release date has not been determined, Disney's promotional plan has long been launched. Behind the high sales of the original novel is the result of the operation of Ryan and Disney. Moreover, with the end of the shooting, many props in the movie are also being commercialized, and various peripheral authorization negotiations are also ahead.

Ryan’s goal is very simple, try to recover the cost as much as possible at the box office and use the surrounding area to make a profit.

To date, among all Hollywood movies, there are three series with the best developments around the world, George Lucas's Star Wars, Ryan's Jurassic Park and Harry Potter series.

For these movies, the screening of cinemas is more like promotion. Almost all places that really bring huge profits are in the surrounding industries.
