Chapter 1627 Potential Changes
Xizhongcheng, Li's Apartment.
After Li Zitao finished his morning class, Aiden and Ail were still sleeping soundly.
The two came back very late yesterday. The butler said that when Ail got back, he was drunk and fell asleep. It was Aiden and the maid who sent her back to the room.
Li Zitao planned to talk to them when the two woke up. Now he had to go to the reception room to see a guest.
Lauren Caddis, meets again to ban Adolf Zucker's new president of DreamWorks.
Lauren Caddis, who met again, looked no different from before, neither seemed to be rewarded nor sad.
The work of DreamWorks is already a part of his daily life. Although his title has changed, there is actually no way to do the work he is responsible for.
It was just that he had changed from behind the scenes to the front stage, and Adolf completely retreated to the second line, or simply described it as "retirement."
You can imagine the blow to Adolf when you learn that you were betrayed by your disciples.
Although he always shows himself as an irritable old man when facing outsiders, he has high expectations for Lauren Caddis.
The other party did not disappoint him, and stepped on him as a stepping stone to get to the high position. I don’t know how he would feel about it.
"You look very good." Cut the cigar open, Li Zitao moistened the cigarette holder with his lips, then evenly lit it with the incense slices, and lie backward and enjoy it.
"Yes, everything goes well." Lauren never mentioned it. He and Adolf fought in the conference room, almost knocking the head into a dog's head.
"Those who threaten to go with Adolf?" Li Zitao wanted to hear how he handled the follow-up.
"I've talked to them personally, and they all decided to stay and recognize their mistakes."
"The rest of the people were fired, and they didn't want to get a letter of recommendation from DreamWorks unless they wanted a bad review."
Lauren and Li Zitao have the same view. Those idiots are all traitors. Who would write a letter of recommendation to those who betray them with good reviews?
"So, tell me what you want today?" Li Zitao moved his body to make himself feel more comfortable, and murmured: "I heard that the holiday videos are terrible."
Lauren said with awkward expression: "The feedback from the Christmas video is not very good, but we have made timely adjustments and the new video is released today."
"It's a science fiction film supported by Hodward's Vita Special Effects Studio, a deep-sea octopus." Lauren didn't want him to feel that something went wrong just after he was in charge of the company.
"This name sounds terrible!" Li Zitao's feedback was not very polite.
The truth is as he said, the deep-sea octopus?
This name sounds like a third-rate science fiction film, it's simply...
"Uh..." Lauren was a little stuck.
Li Zitao knew nothing about the film, saying it was 'terrible' by name alone, which made him wonder what to explain.
"In fact, the content of the deep-sea octopus is pretty good. Most of the reviews received after the trial were 4 points, and the results were good."
“Compared to what?”
"What?" Lauren didn't understand what he meant.
"What am I talking about comparing it?" Li Zitao wanted to know what video he was comparing it, and what are the standards?
"This is because most of the normal films are not included in large productions. This type of film has its own uniqueness and has a dedicated analysis to make relatively accurate estimates."
"The Christmas season is just ordinary videos, not big productions?" Li Zitao opened his eyes curiously and looked at him: "Please tell me when the big productions should be on the top time?"
Lauren seemed a little uneasy. He was trying to interpret Li Zitao's intentions. Has he been targeted now?
Or is there something that makes him misunderstand, so he deliberately causes trouble for himself, or maybe this is a test?
Seeing Lauren's face tangled and falling into thinking, Li Zitao said to himself: "I have said many times that we must ensure that the races of the films produced by DreamWorks are diverse."
"At the same time, we must also add the same elements to the back story. Adolf failed to do it. I don't want to see you repeat the same mistake."
"There are in the deep sea octopus." Lauren said quickly; "The person who helped the protagonist eliminate the monster in the video was an Asian sailor. He knew very well about marine creatures and could fight Asians."
"You talk about Kung Fu?" Li Zitao didn't expect them to consider this and asked with interest; "Tell me about his situation."
Lauren described the importance of this role in detail and exaggerated it appropriately.
First of all, this Asian native is a peninsula. He has great fighting skills and lives on the sea all year round, with a mysterious origin.
The protagonist and others found the deep-sea octopus while sailing on the boat where he was, and started a series of struggles with it.
Finally, with the help of this mysterious and skillful sailor, they defeated the deep-sea monster and brought its body back to land.
"It's actually just a small part. If the box office is impressive, we have plans to shoot a sequel and make it into a series."
"And in the subsequent series, more Asian cultural backs, characters and plots will be added, and the editors have already had ideas."
"Do they have ideas?" Li Zitao was a little unbelievable. Any editors who really understand Asian culture, but they are all guys who can draw pictures and make up for the numbers.
Li Zitao can express his understanding of the use of Southern Peninsula people rather than Chinese in the film.
If he was asked to do this, he would do this. After all, America and the Far East are confronting the peninsula, and both sides are waiting for the battle, and there is a possibility of war again at any time.
If more Far Eastern culture and Chinese characters are added at this time, the film will only be boycotted.
However, Li Zitao didn't want to give up just like that, which completely excluded Chinese and Far Eastern culture from Hollywood.
"Have you ever considered Chinatown?" It turns out that there are always more ways than difficulties.
At first, Li Zitao was also in a blind spot, thinking about how to allow more Chinese people to join Hollywood shooting and let them integrate into it.
But he forgot that he could expand his scope with points, start with some small things, and then gradually introduce excellent Chinese directors and actors to let the facts speak.
"We can form a group or studio to find Chinese people who have filming experience or want to act, shoot micro-films, with Chinese culture as the theme."
"No grand scenes or investment are required, and they are specially played in Chinatowns everywhere."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lauren said with his eyes lit up; "Targeted videos and audiences, videos specially made for Chinese people?"
But then he was a little confused: "But, what are the benefits of doing this?"
The advantage is that it can cultivate interest and give Chinese people more opportunities to understand film culture. At the same time, it will naturally give DreamWorks a systematic understanding of Far Eastern culture.
This potential change is difficult to detect for a while. When they come to their senses, the Chinese have already entered Hollywood.
At the same time, Far Eastern culture will also become a part of Hollywood films, and will naturally be used by more people to learn from and use.
