282 [Double Happiness Comes to the Door]

A week after the launch of the "Ghost Street" project, "Dragon Hard Boy" officially announced the completion of the filming, and then entered the post-production stage.

Ye Jin was also very busy while supervising the post-production of "Dragon Hard Boy" and also serving as the producer of "Ghost Street".

Because Hollywood is a producer-centric production system. The producer is responsible for finding projects, attracting investment, accumulating crew, making movies, selling movies... all matters will be decided by him.

Even the director is just a tool in his hands. Most Hollywood directors do not even have the power to edit after filming movies, and the producers are responsible for supervising the editing. Only a very small number of directors with high status, seniority and good grades enjoy the privilege of editing movies.

It seems that James Cameron was still an unknown person in the film industry when filming "Pizzard 2" and had no right to edit the movie. So he secretly pried open the editing room and went in to edit the movie every night after the editor got off work. It can be said that he is quite hardcore.

Mai Jiashang was not qualified to participate in the editing, but who made Ye Jin the producer? So Mai Jiashang, an unqualified new director, enjoyed the privileges that many great directors had never enjoyed.

In addition to post-production, how the film is promoted, released, and released to the international market is also something that producers need to worry about.

In terms of "The Ghost Street", although CAA brought him all the crew, Ye Jin still had a lot to do, such as insurance companies and trade unions, advertising and investment, pre-promotion of movies, selection of locations, etc.

It can be said that the producer is just octopus, you must understand everything and do everything.

This job put a lot of pressure on Ye Jin. After all, he is almost a newcomer in Hollywood, but he has to bear so much work, which is really hard.

But then again, there is motivation only when there is pressure.

Ye Jin is busy with various work and solving various troubles every day, and his abilities are also improving rapidly.

He is like a sponge, quickly absorbing knowledge and improving his level.

...

In the Hong Kong side, Ye Jinlaishi invested and produced "The Brave Without Fear" starring Yuan Biao and Cheng Long, and "The Monk of Sande and the Mizuno" starring Hong Jinbao have all been released.

Among them, "The Brave is Fearless" cost 600,000 Hong Kong dollars, and finally won a box office of 5 million Hong Kong dollars. The big sale of this movie not only consolidated Yuan Biao's position as a popular star, but also allowed Cheng Long, who was originally an unknown, to finally taste the taste of becoming famous.

"The Monk of Sande and the Milk Six" cost 750,000 Hong Kong dollars. After its release, it won the box office of HK$3.2 million, slightly inferior to "The Brave Without Fear". However, such results are already very good.

Moreover, at the same time as "The Monk of Sande and the Milk-Six" was released, Hong Jin-Feng started filming "Fat Dragon Crossing the River".

This movie was written by him and Wu Yaohan, and parody Bruce Lee's classic movie "The Dragon Crossing the River". In Ye Jin's opinion, it is still worth watching.

Yuan Biao and Cheng Long lack the courage to write and are still looking for scripts, so the new film has not started filming yet.

After learning this, Ye Jin did not immediately come up with the script.

Because the good scripts in his hands are limited, they are gone after filming, so good steel must be used on the blade.

With Yuan Biao and Cheng Long's fame, they can at least support two more movies. So let them make some other movies first, and after their momentum declines, they will come out to help them make a comeback.

In this way, Ye Jin can not only make more money, but also make them devotedly.

The top sales of "Monkey Sande and Mine Milk Six" and "The Brave Without Fear" have made Myth Film earn more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars. In addition to the dividends of selling ports, Myth Film has now accumulated more than 11 million Hong Kong dollars.

Because Ye Jin invested in the production of "Dragon Wild Boy" and "Ghost Street", he invested almost all the money he earned last year, and even the store he bought was mortgaged to the bank for loans.

The finances were originally quite tight, and the monthly interest rate was 120,000 Hong Kong dollars. Now with this amount of funds, Ye Jin's financial pressure has been much easier.

...

In addition to the good news that the two invested in movies were selling well at the box office, Ye Jin also received a good news, that is, Zhao Yazhi has finished filming "The Little Hero of Life" and will be able to come to Yameica in two days.

This was really timely rain for Ye Jin.

Because of his producer status, he has been flirted a lot in the past two months.

The actresses in the crew and the female students in the class all regarded him as Tang Monk and wanted to swallow him.

Therefore, the Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing their own abilities, and used various methods of flirting with the Japanese, hoping to become Ye Jin's guest, and then gained fame in Hollywood with his financial resources.

Although Ye Jin is determined and keeps his body as jade, he focuses on his work and wants to start a career first and then start a family.

But it is very difficult to bear to face so much confusion every day.

Now that Zhao Yazhi comes, he can finally be saved.

...

Ye Jin drove himself to the airport to pick up Zhao Yazhi.

"Brother Jin, I won't disturb your work, right?" Zhao Yazhi said worriedly.

"No, it's not tiring for men and women to work. With you here, I'm more motivated to do things." Ye Jin smiled.

After hearing what he said, Zhao Yazhi felt relieved, "Then what are you busy with now?"

"Busy in the post-production, promotion and marketing of "Dragon Hard Boy", as well as the investment and production of "Ghost Street"." Ye Jin explained briefly.

The two most important tasks of "Dragon Wild Boy" are now: post-production and promotion and marketing.

Many Hollywood movies have already started to build momentum before they are filmed. Every once in a while, news will break out and continue to maintain popularity.

For example, the movie "Mulan" starring Liu Yifei has been promoting since the beginning of the casting, and then the character styles, live photos, trailers, second-version trailers, third-version trailers, etc. are constantly exposed, which constantly attract the attention of the media and audience.

However, due to limited investment, the production cost of "Dragon Hard Boy" is only 1.5 million US dollars and the promotion cost is only 500,000 US dollars. Therefore, large-scale publicity cannot be afforded, and it can only be a key promotion in the early stage of the release of the movie.

Therefore, the publicity work has not yet started yet. However, Warner Pictures has already taken him to edit a three-minute trailer and promoted it to various theater vendors to seek more theater support.

"Brother Jin, you are so awesome. You invest in two Hollywood movies in a row." Zhao Yazhi said admiringly.

Many film companies in Xiangjiang can’t even leave Xiangjiang, but Ye Jin has invested in two Hollywood movies now.

"Investing is nothing great. As long as you have money, anyone can come and invest." Ye Jin smiled, "It is really amazing to be able to make money in Hollywood."

"Yes." Zhao Yazhi nodded.

Spending money is nothing great, making money is the most rare.
