Rebirth In Hollywood

"This is a movie with a very strong personal style. Although Ryan Jenkins provided ideas and ideas, "Face Change" belongs to Wu's movie. This director from the East repackages violence with beautiful pictures and romantic confrontations. , to create a fairly good commercial film."

"The absurd setting, the outdated fight scenes and the flying white pigeons, "Face Change" is just a Hong Kong flavor under the Hollywood system, Wu's style is too bright and fixed, if it weren't for the excellent performances of the two actors, this film would have Maybe it will be Ryan Jenkins' Waterloo."

"Wu, an Oriental director who wants to conquer Hollywood with a flock of pigeons and 100 million bullets, will he succeed?"

After "Face Change" was released in North America, the media and film critics had mixed reviews, but anyway, Bai Ge? Wu's style is still very popular in North America, especially among young audiences in a short period of time. Nicolas Cage and John Travolta's box-office appeal, in April, the film's traditionally off-season, was a good one.

With $33 million in the first week and $26 million in the second week, such box office results are enough to make "Face Change" the No. 1 spot on the North American weekly box office charts for two consecutive weeks.

Ryan just paid a little attention and put it aside. Paramount Pictures will naturally operate at full capacity for the rest of the promotion and marketing and overseas release.

Frankly speaking, Ryan is still a little worried. Overall, making money for this movie is not a big problem, but it seems a little difficult to recover the cost in the North American market.

After telling George to keep an eye on the box office of the movie, Ryan turned his attention to "Titanic", even if all the movies this year lose money, as long as the big ship comes out. His aura will only increase and not decrease.

The huge concert hall was empty, except for the Los Angeles Philharmonic on the stage, there were only less than ten people in the first few rows.

"let's start."

After Ryan nodded, James Horner on the side of the stage made a gesture to the conductor on the stage. With the swing of the baton, the melodious music gradually sounded.

The Norwegian female singer Sisle stood in front of the microphone, humming a female voice like the sound of nature, as soft and uninhibited as the wind in the empty valley. It is full of agility again, in which the sadness of farewell and the feeling like a lifetime can easily remind people of the short but fiery love between Jack and Ruth.

"Perfect!"

After the orthodox orchestral music combined with the rich Scottish bagpipes sound came to an end, Ryan had to sigh with emotion, worthy of James Horner!

Even if Ryan copied "My Heart Will Go On\

,"But James Horner uses the song's melody as the heart of the entire soundtrack. The combination of orchestral ensembles and Scottish bagpipes creates distinctive mournful tunes.

Especially, he is like the previous life. Invited Sisle from Norway to enhance the appeal of the soundtrack with her elegant and implicit humming, and use an emotional melody to tell a touching love legend, which is not the same as the traditional tragic scenes. It is also different from the deliberately unconventional and anti-trend style of some films, but subtly lays out the musical themes of joy, sadness and rebirth, and uses it to tell people what is eternal in human emotions.

Ryan asked himself that he has excellent musical literacy, as well as the background of his previous life experience, and believed in the soundtrack he played. It is still bound to be like a movie, and it will become an eternal classic.

“Excellent!”

Although there is an irreconcilable conflict between the truck driver and James Horner. But work is work, and the other side did a really good soundtrack.

"James, the perfect soundtrack."

Ryan gave him a thumbs up when James Horner came over.

"That's because of "My Heart Will Go On" as the keynote." James Horner said modestly, then looked at James Cameron, "Director Cameron. Did what I do satisfy you."

"Well, I admit, no one can do this job better than you." James Cameron obviously doesn't want to put personal conflicts into his work.

At the end of April, with the soundtrack being approved by Ryan and James Cameron, the production of "Titanic" has entered the final stage, in addition to the dubbing of individual clips and the addition of soundtrack letters, including special effects synthesis shots and other work , has been declared complete.

Among them, of course, James? Cameron's complaints.

"Ryan, give me another twenty million dollars, no, just ten million dollars, and I can make this movie even better!"

Out of the Los Angeles concert hall, James? Cameron is still mentioning the investment thing to Ryan.

"Then can you guarantee that the movie will be released at the scheduled time?" Ryan knew this guy's temperament well after having known each other for so many years, "If I give you twenty million dollars, Jim, it won't be long before you say ' If you give me another $30 million, the Titanic will be an immortal masterpiece'."

James Cameron shrugged helplessly. He also knew that his request was a bit too much. To be honest, after entering Hollywood for so many years, he has also shot a lot of movies, but to a partner like Ryan who is generous and agrees with him. , really not much.

To be precise, it should be the only one.

"Ryan, don't forget, there are still a few clips that you need to dub."

Before parting, James Cameron specifically instructed the data, "By the way, don't forget to let Yahoo continue to build momentum on the Internet."

After entering 1997, the Internet is booming, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the rise of this new type of media is inevitable. Especially after Ryan opened his personal website, the surge in traffic has made Hollywood fully aware of the Internet. Great potential value for the entertainment industry.

The crew of "Titanic" will naturally not ignore this publicity position, and Ryan has a strong Internet thug like Yahoo, which has a natural advantage in this regard.

In fact, since the Oscars, the promotion and marketing of "Titanic" has entered a sprint stage, and major media are full of news and reports about it, as well as the media under the parent company of Twentieth Century Fox, and even more Do your best to build momentum for the movie.

Of course, the media under News Corp. still maintains the usual style. Divided into positive and negative sides, chatting in the air, maintaining enough topic heat.

Early on, Yahoo put several links to websites about the Titanic shipwreck created by Ryan on a prominent position on the homepage, and even published a special column for analysis before and after the sinking of the Titanic.

In this column, the detailed specifications and logbooks of the Titanic were announced for the first time, as well as a list of some of the victims, as well as some photos and newspaper contents of the year. At the same time, I kept reminding with large-scale articles that a movie about this shipwreck will be released soon.

After returning home, Ryan logged on to his personal website. Since the establishment of this website, although he will check it from time to time, it is mostly time. They are all managed by the specialized staff of the agent team. After a long period of operation, this place can be regarded as the concentration of Ryan fans.

Several stills from "Titanic" are hanging prominently on the site. Most of them are his and Kate Winslet's dog-blood interactive posters. Those guys in the agent team are very good at picking. These stills are all close-ups of Ryan's front or side, not to mention the movie and acting skills. It is a handsome and determined appearance, which is enough to attract countless girls into the theater.

"Is this the $250 million Titanic, a love story?"

"Looking at the poster, it should be, Ryan is so handsome, so charming."

"Regardless of the movie. Even if it's for Ryan, I'll go to the theater."

"It is said that Ryan doesn't have a girlfriend yet. We still have a chance."

"Support Titanic, support Ryan!"

"The movie will be released in a little more than a month, and we should prepare in advance."

"Ryan, we are a support club in Los Angeles, and we have packed the box office in the Greater Los Angeles area..."

"Can Ryan be specific about your role..."

Needless to say, after the stills are hung up. The message board has become a place for fans to graffiti, and they express their support for the movie and idols in various ways.

"These guys!"

Ryan shook his head, but he didn't care too much. At this time, he was completely different from Xiao Li in his previous life. He was not only a member of the Academy and a member of the Oscar judges, but also had a huge influence in this circle. He also deliberately With Miramax as a public relations tool, and the acting skills that have been recognized by the vast majority of people, it will not be completely sad.

Besides, in the next two years, Ryan intends to play the role of a facelift. This huge image change before and after, if nothing else, will bring huge praise, maybe it will be able to impact the next one. Little golden man.

Now that he's on the website, Ryan simply writes something about the movie to catch the eye.

"Titanic tells a love story in a disaster. Just like what happened in the past, it will show the brilliance of humanity in the shipwreck. In addition, there are also the shipwreck scenes that James Cameron built for more than three years. Absolutely real and shocking, and when I went to try the clip, I was in shock."

"Everyone knows that the studio tyrant is a pioneer of new film technology, and this time he used unprecedented advanced technology and equipment..."

"As for my character, it is a painter full of romantic feelings, poor but optimistic... Well, I can't continue, otherwise, if the spoiler is revealed, I will be jointly claimed by the film company..."

There are so many things, Ryan wrote some tidbits and anecdotes during the shooting, most of which are dog blood incidents that the public likes to see, such as James Cameron's 300 decibel roar, such as Billy Zane's pet lizard being killed. Trailer crushes, etc.

Of course, Ryan is not a fool. He writes all innocuous things, such as a pair of wild mandarin ducks that always appear after a party, and he will never reveal it to the outside world.

These information, which are often only circulated within the crew, not only attracted the attention of netizens, but also attracted the attention of some print media, and some of them contacted Pie Jinsili and wanted to reprint.

Ryan readily agreed, this was a good opportunity for free publicity, but what he didn't expect was that just when the topic of "Titanic" became hotter and hotter in the media, the voice of doubt jumped out again. ()
