In today's Britain, the overall status of women is still very high!
Especially the one at the top, who is the queen.
In such an environment, coupled with generous welfare benefits, one can imagine how many wealthy women are hidden among the people.
As Siphis opened the newspaper, he saw a huge photo on the front page headline of a middle-aged woman wearing a sky blue professional suit.
The man stood on the podium with his right hand extended forward and a firm expression on his face, as if he could point his right index finger at Siphis's forehead through the picture.
The headline below is "With Christmas approaching, what should the Prime Minister do in the face of continued high unemployment?"
Looking at the picture of British Prime Minister Thatcher, known as the "Iron Lady", and then looking at Meryl in front of him, Siphis swallowed his saliva timidly.
Is this the woman that my young master was referring to, a conservative but slightly flirtatious professional woman?
You call the Prime Minister a career woman?
“This…this…”
…
Alan looked at Ceface's dazed eyes and took the opportunity to look at Meryl a few more times. He thought Ceface was worried that Meryl's hair color was different from the pure golden hair color of the "Iron Lady".
"Don't worry about her hair, just let her bleach and dye it in the next two days. This is the makeup and clothing look I want. Go ahead."
Urged Siphis to take people to do the styling.
Alan was thinking about this film and television plan.
He has played with this edge before, whether it was an exposed cover or an ambiguous title, all of these were considered edge cases.
But these are very low-end touches.
It’s different now.
To get high-end, you often just need to take the simplest approach.
If you're going to wipe it, wipe it big!
Alan didn't have the courage to touch the one at the top, that would be courting death.
But apart from the Queen, Britain now has another internationally famous woman, so if you want to wipe her, wipe her!
He is famous and well-known, and the war in recent years has given this prime minister a lot of topics to talk about.
but……
Many outsiders tend to think that this person now has a very high status in Great Britain.
The fact is not so. Due to the continuous changes to the economy, many nobles are, if not gnashing their teeth at the prime minister, at least very annoyed.
Ordinary people did not benefit from her economic changes. More people were unemployed, and the Prime Minister did not leave a good impression on the lower-class people.
She has almost offended both the upper and lower classes, and now Allen is using her as a peripheral target, which will not only increase the popularity of the movie, but also attract a large number of people to watch the fun.
This is very helpful for his own plan to increase his fame!
Imagine that scene: a professional woman who looks very similar to the Prime Minister in terms of clothing and makeup, hugging a black man in a hotel. If he makes such a movie poster, wouldn’t it be so popular?
He didn't even need to mention Thatcher's name, just add a few small features like this, and then find a few tabloids to randomly publish some vague news...
Tsk tsk tsk.
…
After staying in the hotel for an afternoon and seeing that all the actors had been preliminarily selected, Allen felt relieved to take the bus home.
"Master...you're back! Karl is back too."
Hut took the down jacket that Alan took off and followed him, reporting the situation as he walked.
"Karl is back? Where is he?"
"Master, I have done everything you asked me to do!"
When Old Carl heard Alan's voice, he quickly stood up from the guest lounge in the side hall and saluted him.
…
Some time ago, Allen asked Sifes to go to Los Angeles to find old Carl. At that time, old Carl had just settled down there, and Allen didn't want him to run back and forth. He simply assigned him a small task over the phone and asked him to come back after finishing it.
Now, in less than a month, old Carl's image has changed drastically.
The former owner of a car repair shop, after being tidied up, put on a well-fitting old-fashioned suit, coupled with old Carl's unique temperament.
It has a bit of the flavor of a stubborn old rich man from Great Britain.
"Haha! Very good... Where are the people? Did you bring them back?"
"I brought them back and placed them in Cardiff. They were selected according to your requirements. They are definitely professional enough. I have also seen their previous works. They are of a certain standard."
"Good, good, very good!"
Alan patted old Carl's shoulder happily again.
This time, with the return of old Carl, the final link has been added to his plan!
…
In Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States, in addition to Hollywood, the film and television mecca, there is actually another film and television mecca hidden.
The San Fernando Valley is only thirty kilometers away from Los Angeles.
Here... there are hundreds of special film and television companies. They work tirelessly all year round to shoot various special films, bringing a large number of wonderful film and television works to the American people. Although they are not as famous as Hollywood, their real influence is no less than that of Hollywood.
And the talents Allen needs are here.
…
Even if a work is close to the Prime Minister's name, the British film and television market is so small that if you want to maximize profits, you have to go west in the end.
Go to America to harvest leeks.
But these American bumpkins just can't appreciate a vegan movie like Allen's.
Apart from watching it for fun at the beginning, Allen estimates that the subsequent box office revenue will not be too high.
In this case, if he doesn't make some changes, it will definitely affect the harvesting of leeks.
So... after learning from his mistakes, Alan can only use his ultimate move: AB version!
…
The so-called AB version is a very common method in the film and television industry: one film, two versions. However, these ordinary AB versions are often just compromises that directors or producers have to make due to time constraints or regional habits.
The B version of some film and television works, known as the director's cut, is just to lengthen the length or change the ending, or at best make it an uncut version.
But Allen is different, he is more radical, he wants to be more ruthless this time, a real AB version!
He has to prepare two crews. The actors' configuration is generally the same, but they are not the same group of people. They share the same filming location, the same costumes and props. Version A will be filmed first, and version B will follow suit after version A is finished. The plot must remain consistent.
The only difference is in the details and scale.
Version A is pure vegan, version B is pure yellow!
What we want is a clear division of labor.
Allen has not done much research in the field of pure yellow, but he believes that the talents from the San Fernando Valley can help him solve this problem.
Has anyone ever seen the producer personally take part in making this so-called AB version?
At that time, version A will be released openly in theaters, while version B will be secretly released into the American market. The two swords will work together to boost each other's popularity. In this way, it will be easier to reap the benefits.
And you can cut it twice!
Allen could even imagine that by then those American bumpkins would bow down to his master Allen's exquisite skill of cutting leeks.
