After settling the issues with the cinema, Mr. Qiu also had some free time to come and take a look at the editing and post-production of the film.
But when I see the colorful things on everyone’s screen, I don’t understand what they are. What is that? Is this a special effect?
In fact, their special effects personnel are magnifying the screen and processing local details, because the special effects processing must be very fine to achieve the corresponding effect.
Generally speaking, you will feel a certain shock only when you watch the whole picture. However, in Mr. Qiu’s opinion, with such special effects, the movie will definitely fail.
So, I went to chat with Cheng Hailu and Zhang Songwen.
"The cinemas are ready now. Once the film is finished, it will be officially released. It will only be shown in the Baofu Cinema Chain and not in other cinemas."
Cheng Hailu nodded. There was nothing he could do about it. This was what happened when capital banned it. Other cinemas simply wouldn’t let him show the film.
Fortunately, Mr. Qiu acted decisively and directly acquired the cinema chain, which gave the Takeaway Hero a chance of survival.
"Do you have confidence?" Mr. Qiu looked at the two of them.
I noticed that Cheng Hailu and Zhang Songwen both lowered their heads, looking a little unconfident.
"Don't worry, if there is a problem, we will solve it," Mr. Qiu comforted them.
Zhang Songwen is now one of them. Seeing President Qiu and Baofu Film Department being suppressed like this, he feels very uncomfortable, but he will not quit.
Even if he is blacklisted or doesn't get any roles in the future, he is willing to work hard here because everyone is really nice and the movies they make are of high quality without any nonsense.
A true actor pursues the improvement of acting skills and the effect of presentation, artistry is more important than profitability.
"By the way, has the movie trailer been completed? I want to see it," Mr. Qiu asked.
Cheng Hailu explained that because of the special effects, the trailer was not produced in advance. He wanted to wait until all the special effects were completed before cutting out the wonderful clips.
Mr. Qiu thought, if the movie is very exciting, will there still be a lot of audiences going to watch the movie? What if the box office is too high?
That’s not right. This won’t work. How can we prevent the audience from watching this movie?
If what is promoted is a commercial blockbuster with special effects, but what is released is a mediocre promotional video without even any special effects, wouldn't this have the opposite effect?
Others thought that since this movie didn’t even bother to include special effects, it probably wouldn’t be good.
How can I convince them?
Mr. Qiu thought for a while and then gave the order.
"Now we are starting to make a movie trailer. The requirements are very simple, that is, don't use any special effects, just use those ordinary scene clips, and say that the delivery man is helping people."
When Cheng Hailu heard Mr. Qiu's idea, he immediately tried to stop him and said, "Mr. Qiu, please think twice. The special effects will be ready soon, and we will be able to make a corresponding high-quality trailer soon. Let's wait."
Mr. Qiu shook his head and said, "No, even if we can produce special effects, we won't use them for the time being. There will be no effect in promoting them. Don't forget, there is a superhero movie directed by Nuolan waiting for us."
"Minister Zhang Songwen, you are in charge of the movie trailer. It would be best if it comes out today and I can see it."
Zhang Songwen didn't ask any further questions, just pulled Cheng Hailu and nodded to Mr. Qiu.
After Mr. Qiu left, Cheng Hailu felt a little helpless, "Song Wen, why did you pull me in? Talk to Mr. Qiu again, can't you make the trailer of a higher quality?"
Zhang Songwen smiled and said, "Director Cheng, what you thought of, do you think that with Mr. Qiu's ability, he would not be able to think of the result of a movie trailer without special effects?"
This sentence calmed Cheng Hailu down. Yes, why was Mr. Qiu so persistent? He emphasized that such publicity and promotion had no effect, and also talked about Director Nuolan.
After pouring a cup of tea, Zhang Songwen continued to comfort him, "I think what Mr. Qiu did might be a sophisticated marketing method, but I don't know how to describe it specifically, nor do I know the principle."
"But my intuition tells me that the audience will be surprised after watching the movie."
"Think about it, are our movie special effects bad? They're not bad, so what are you worried about?"
Cheng Hailu felt that Zhang Songwen was a bit too confident. You know, the Baofu Group is now suppressed by capital, and even the cinemas have to be acquired by themselves before they can release films.
If there is no trailer for the movie, fewer people will come to see it. If the publicity is not strong enough, and other media do not promote your own movie, how can the box office be guaranteed?
Zhang Songwen smiled and said, "Director Cheng, your thinking is limited. Don't forget that our Baofu Group has Baofu Takeaway software and a lot of industrial support. Do you remember the linkage plan that Manager Cai Wenyin mentioned last time?"
"Although that plan starts with the game, it is also a way of promotion, because there are many people playing the game. Now many game bloggers are thinking about how to kill a wolf after completing the game."
"In addition, we can also come up with some joint plans. After all, we have a lot of publicity funds. President Qiu has spoken, so what are you worried about? You can promote it on the Baofu Takeaway App yourself. Have you forgotten how huge the number of users is?"
"At the same time, we can also invite some vloggers to watch the movie and record the process, which can also achieve the effect of publicity."
"At the same time, we should also be prepared to open the function of online ticket purchase for Baofu takeaway, so that people can enter the venue by simply scanning the code, without the need for paper tickets, which is more convenient and more advanced."
After hearing this, Cheng Hailu was shocked and amazed. It was so amazing!
My Song Wen is indeed a talented person.
If the linkage is like this, there is no need to worry about traffic issues. The key is the quality of the movie. Cheng Hailu is very confident about this.
Although I don’t know how the competitor’s Superman movie performs, I believe it won’t be too bad, as the competitor is the famous director Nolan.
But now the Baofu Film Department has gone all out. Even if it loses, it doesn’t matter. This is the first step, just the starting point.
When they really grow up, everything will be defeated.
Cheng Hailu clenched his fists and imagined the future.
