Chapter 490: Start theater

  Chapter 490 Starting Theater

  In the whole movie, the most dangerous thing is that the little protagonist Kevin sits on a snowboard, slid down the stairs on the second floor of his own house, rushed out of the gate, and hit the snowdrift in the yard.

  This section must use a split lens, and the picture of sliding down the stairs must also be a dummy.

  Otherwise, there is a real problem. If you don’t talk about the relationship with Jim and Wheat Cowley, you will not only lose money and be condemned by your conscience, but the movie may also be banned.

  As for the little guy finally rushing to his room, using a cable to descend, and escaping to the small tree house, it is the most okay.

  The safety lock attached to the back of the steel cable is no problem to support Li Changheng. For the weight of the 6-year-old Macaulay, there will be no safety problems.

  It took two days to wait for the little guy to be fixed on the skateboard, pulled by ropes from the gate of the villa, rushed out of the yard, and hit a snowdrift.

  Horn, who personally controlled the film camera, gave a thumbs up, and there was a huge cheer on the scene.

  Finish in 46 days. Expected 2 months of shooting, directly saving nearly 500,000 US dollars in cost.

  Plus the place to live, the villas we photographed are all provided by Grosvenor.

  There is no need to spend money on artificial snowmaking, and the budget of 3 million US dollars is directly left, and there is a full 900,000 left.

  Subtract the entire crew and add the actors’ £250,000, which is almost 650,000 US dollars.

  In other words, filming aggravated all kinds of consumption during the shooting of the group, and only $1.45 million was spent.

  As for the later stage, without special effects, the money spent is actually not much.

  And the completion of a movie is actually only half of the work completed.

  Dubbing, music and the like in post-production, needless to say.

  The most important editing, in many cases, can even determine the key to the success of a movie.

  And this most important job, I already know what I want in my mind.

  Even Li Changheng, who has the entire movie in his mind, is the simplest and most trouble-free link.

  It takes ten days and half a month for professional editors to understand what the whole movie is about, and then start thinking about how to edit with the director.

  It became a week for Li Changheng, and he roughly cut out the first version.

Cut after   , and then dubbing, scoring, subtitles, etc. after finishing.

  On December 3, the creator of the entire film was invited to 306 Regent Street, the first old theater in London history to show a movie.

  Watch the official first version of the film, understand what the whole film is like, and at the same time give advice to see where it needs to be changed or even remade.

  As for why it was chosen on Regent Street, of course Li Changheng bought it.

  Three months ago, when Lee Chang-hyung decided to make a movie to make people look for a suitable theater, he was surprised.

  At least 60% of the theaters in London are losing money, and the more centrally located, the more losers.

  Even the oldest theater at 306 Regent Street, since 51, in order to maintain its business, it actually performed dramas and operas while also showing some colorful movies at midnight.

  Although countries such as France, England, and Italy have long regarded movies with colors as part of art movies.

  Even some of the directors’ films are related to Xing, and as long as they are not too explicit, they can be broadcast publicly in the theater.

  There are some things, no matter which country they are in, they are challenging many people's acceptance, even the bottom line.

  So the lawyers in Li Changheng issued takeover offers to 306 Regent Street, London Leicester Square Theatre, Trafalgar Square Theatre and Grosvenor Square Theatre.

  And publicly guarantee that these four theaters will no longer play any movies rated as Grade 2 or higher except for operas and dramas in the future.

   immediately won the support of most residents near these four theaters.

  Even several district councillors in the Westminster area jumped out to support and criticize the owners of these four theaters.

   Then naturally, during the negotiations, the four theaters that were still playing those special films not only made the headlines of major London newspapers.

  There are also many temporary workers hired to protect their children’s healthy growth and pull banners outside the theater to express their dissatisfaction.

  Then what Li Changheng’s negotiating team didn’t expect was that hundreds of temporary workers became a crowd of three to four hundred spontaneous boycotts in just two days.

  And the more night it gets, the more crowds there will be.

A team of lawyers such as    applied to Annie to donate a total of 120,000 pounds to six protection funds for minors in the West End of London.

  The number of people who resisted directly exceeded 1,000.

  The negotiating team had to turn around, let the hired manpower help the police maintain order, and secretly stare at the guys who took the opportunity to make trouble.

  After the people waiting for these six funds began to provide portable coffee to the crowd.

  Many pedestrians and shoppers who appeared in these four Westminster areas, the most prosperous neighborhoods and squares, also began to join in the excitement and shouted a few words of boycott.

  Then the Grosvenor Square Theatre, which was deliberately chosen by Li Changheng, was the same as acting for a week, at 3.14 million pounds.

  Equivalent to 8 million U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at this time, it was sold to Li Changheng’s offshore company in Cayman.

  The other three theaters are facing a plummeting business, and because of media reports, they have been cursed by many people in an embarrassing situation.

  After learning that the buyer was willing to pay in US dollars, and increased the price by 25%, they sold it to Li Changheng before long.

  Li Changheng, who bought these four theaters, directly stopped his team of lawyers and wanted to buy a theater in all the prosperous neighborhoods and squares of London.

  He will focus on these four theaters. In addition to being located in the West End of London, it is also in the Westminster area ~lightnovelpub.net~ and because of these four theaters, many conservative groups have long been regarded as a thorn in the eye.

  Of course, these four places will be watched all the time. The reason is that the geographical location is too superior, and the number of people who go to these four places every day is too much.

  In addition, Westminster Abbey is a traditionally rich area, so people can’t even pay attention to the four theaters.

  Otherwise, they are not the only ones playing special types of movies in London.

  In this case, calculating the four theaters can still be prevaricated by the people's spontaneity.

   But if the target is to focus on theaters in all the prosperous areas of London, then too many people will be offended, and it will also make people feel too overbearing.

  And listening to the name of Grosvenor Square, you know that this square was developed by the Grosvenor family, and they even retained the property rights of all commercial buildings within a circle of the entire square.

  Even the foreign affairs hall in the US where the foreign affairs hall is set up has to pay rent to the Grosvenor family every year.

  And Li Changheng was able to buy the independent four-story building covering an area of ​​380 square meters on the square, only to make Grosvenor return the favor.
