612 Master Xie Zihao

"sure!"

Xie Zihao did not look at anyone else, but held the information in his hand and said:

"One of the reasons I recommend this story is because of its popularity."

There were a few people below who looked thoughtful at that time, but there was no immediate response.

Xie Zihao continued to say calmly:

"For this reason alone, if our series of movies will film this plot with this theme here, it will definitely trigger a wave of movie-watching in many local ticket stores."

"You must know that the urban resident population here exceeds tens of millions, and the surrounding area can radiate millions of people. It is an important ticket warehouse city in the north, and the nearby capital will also be affected. Once the movie is released, at least it will be able to attract more

Contributed to the box office of hundreds of thousands of people!”

Everyone present was an insider in the entertainment industry, and they couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing this.

The person in charge of the docking company even said:

"In fact, what Consultant Xie said is a bit conservative. Judging from the population advantage near Gyeonggi, if the movie can incorporate local factors, it is relatively safe to increase the box office by several million dollars."

This alone made several Hollywood production executives nod secretly in their hearts.

A few million dollars at the box office may not sound like much, but for a theater movie like theirs, which is shot in a documentary mode and is based on folklore events, it is already a lot. Although horror movies are easy to become hits, they are still niche works after all.

.

Moreover, Dongguo’s population advantage has always been of great concern to the entertainment industry. As Hollywood practitioners, of course they understand that today the box office here has surpassed Neon, becoming the first and second largest box office in the East and the second in the world.

warehouse, this is also a huge benefit that Hollywood covets.

Because Hollywood has developed to this day after a hundred years, and the theater industry, which is restricted by the United States, is already a sunset industry, and its development has almost reached its peak. So the big cake of the East on the other side of the ocean seems to have become what it was back then for the entertainment industry.

It's like Columbus discovering the New World, and every major film company wants a big piece of this cake.

As a professional director, Sophia certainly understood the benefits of doing so. She looked around and saw that most people had expressions of approval, so she continued to ask:

"Are there any other reasons?"

Xie Zihao hesitated a little, then used his pen to click on several names on the whiteboard beside him and said:

“Actually, I don’t know if you have noticed that this, this and this one, if we connect these stories in the script outline, we find that they seem to be blended together to form a series of plots centered on the stories I recommend.

!”

"And if the locations of these stories are viewed in series, they can be arranged into a special location pattern, so that they can have a mystical connection between them. I think this can bring a surprise to the audience in the movie.

.”

As he spoke, the director's assistant, the little red-haired Philip Field, immediately operated the mobile phone skillfully and pulled up the electronic map on the projector screen.

Xie Zihao pointed to several locations on the map and said:

"Here, here, and here..."

After Philip Field made the annotations according to Xie Zihao's instructions, the assistant couldn't help but open his mouth, because he suddenly discovered that the marked points seemed to form a pattern similar to stars holding the moon.

A screenwriter from Hollywood couldn't help but asked in surprise when he saw the marks on the map:

"Oh my God, Mister! How did you come up with this situation? I wrote the outline of the script, and I didn't even expect to be able to arrange this kind of plot connection?"

The female director translated for him. Xie Zihao smiled slightly at the screenwriter with a big imagination and said:

"Do you know fengshui?"

All the foreigners in the conference room nodded in unison.

The theory of Feng Shui spread to the United Kingdom from the colonies in the last century, and was also influenced by areas such as Chinatown in the United States. Then it gradually spread to Europe and the United States, and was considered a very peculiar oriental mysterious method.

The United States is actually a very superstitious country, and people in the entertainment industry and wealthy business circles are the hardest hit areas by superstition. Therefore, even if they, practitioners in the entertainment industry, are not superstitious themselves, they have heard about it after dinner.

There are many related gossips and rumors.

Liking gossip is a common characteristic of human beings, and this is no exception at all times and in all countries.

"I am half a Feng Shui master, and my grandfather is also somewhat famous in this field, so after I got the script, I subconsciously looked at the story from the perspective of Feng Shui, and found that it can be played like this!"

"After all, our movie is said to be folklore, but it is actually a movie that combines suspense, reasoning, thriller and other factors. It is also a kind of fun to watch the movie to participate in such a puzzle-like plot for the audience to solve. I am right.

Director Cole?"

Everyone was suddenly enlightened after hearing this, and looked at Xie Zihao in a different way.

In the past, those Dongguo people in the crew had some opinions on whether a young man like Xie Zihao could be a consultant to the crew and play a minor supporting role, not only in words but also in their hearts.

But now that they know what kind of person Xie Zihao is, most of them are relieved. But there are also some people who don't believe in such things, and their view of Xie Zihao has further deteriorated, thinking that he is just a swindler.

On the contrary, everyone from Hollywood became enthusiastic and respectful towards Xie Zihao.

For this kind of people, people in the American entertainment industry have always had an attitude of not offending them even if they don't believe it, and it's best to be on good terms with them.

The money that many Hollywood stars throw at these mysterious people every year is at least an income that is difficult to earn for ordinary people in several years. Not to mention the wealthy people from the east and west coast who have privately specialized Feng Shui and divination consultants.

They are.

Finally, Sofia made the final decision:

"Then it's settled, Mr. Cheng and you will be responsible for communicating about our shooting location."

Mr. Cheng, the person in charge sent by the docking company who was the nominal co-producer, felt troubled, but he could only nod in agreement.

And those people Sofia brought from Hollywood certainly followed her attitude as a director.

In Hollywood, which is centered on producers, if the producer is not here, the director is the biggest. What’s more, the chief producer of this movie is an old friend of the director’s father, a person whom the director calls uncle.

And the film’s investors are several closely related parties, led by the Cole family. This project is more like the investors spending money to give the female director a chance to win. In this way, Sophia’s rights on the crew can almost be said to be

To say the same thing.

As the leading party, Hollywood has collectively agreed, so as the employed party, the Dongguo Docking Company has no reason to object.

So the theme of the filming in Jinmen was basically decided. As for whether it should be screened together with the Falling Dragon Incident, or whether the two parts should be released separately, that is an issue that the post-production editor and distributor need to consider.

Xie Zihao and Zhang Yishan also greeted the others politely and returned to the arranged hotel room.

As soon as the door was closed, Zhang Yishan, who had hardly spoken at the meeting, couldn't wait to look at Xie Zihao and asked:

"Brother Hao! Is there any reason why you chose that story that you didn't tell me? Tell me quickly..."

Seeing his appearance, Xie Zihao said without concealment:
Chapter completed!
