André then set off for Paris to formally start negotiations with Thierry-an oral agreement is one thing, a black and white contract is another.

It is impossible for the Cannes Film Festival to casually become the "official cooperative distribution platform" of the Don Quixote Channel. This will be a blow to their reputation; similarly, Sisyphus Films cannot casually let the Cannes Film Festival. Do nothing except make a high profile of "friendship recommendation". This is not the way of cooperation expected by the Don Quixote channel. Whether the "Cannes Channel" has the value of launching still needs to be further discussed.

Cooperation is imperative; but there are many possibilities in the details.

Arthur is in Tokyo, and the next stop is Busan; André is in Paris, and the next stop is Venice.

They are all burdened with important tasks, because the Don Quixote channel is ready.

Next year’s Oscars ceremony will be held on February 28th. The publicity department of Sisyphus Films has also officially finalized the launch time of Don Quixote Channel on March 1. The first wave of pre-publicity has been mysteriously unfolded. In the posters of the Pioneer Village Music Festival, like a guessing puzzle, different clues are set in the posters of different versions of different cities, and the clues will point to a mysterious gift.

According to the answer to the puzzle published on the official Twitter of the Pioneer Village Music Festival, a corner of the mysterious gift has been revealed: the so-called mysterious gift is a package, which includes three gifts-

The first mystery gift is the VIP card at the backstage of the music festival, which allows cardholders to visit the backstage at the official time during the festival, including the backstage of Lanli.

The second mystery gift is waiting to be announced on the opening day of the music festival. The answer is that Lanly's new album "Icarus" not only includes Lanly's autograph, but also a special version containing hidden tracks.

The third mysterious gift will be announced on the last day of the festival. The answer is the one-year membership card of Don Quixote Channel.

At present, the last two mystery gifts have not yet been uncovered, and the propaganda department of Sisyphus Pictures can also understand that the third mystery gift will inevitably lead to many controversies after the mystery is solved. Many people should think this gift The name is misplaced and cannot be compared with the other two. After all, this is the first time the Don Quixote channel’s name has appeared, and there are no other additional gifts. As a result, this gift finally made its grand debut?

By then, social networks will certainly not let it go easily. And this riot and controversy is exactly what the propaganda department expects to achieve. They need to stir up the topic, and then follow-up propaganda plans to keep up, step by step to unveil the mystery of the Don Quixote channel, and step by step to announce the upcoming Online drama works.

"Sin Night Run"! "Stranger Things"! "Mind Hunter"!

Especially when Lanly returned to the small screen after many years, the "Mind Hunter" starring David Fincher and Rooney Mara will inevitably detonate expectations.

In addition, there are also a number of movie channels that will appear at the same time, the Sisyphus Channel, the BBC Channel, the Sundance Channel, the Cannes Channel, and the Ghibli Channel—the latter two are also Andre and Arthur. Those who are trying to complete the talks, and the Busan Channel, Venice Channel, Locarno Channel, etc. are also on the road to be negotiated, which is very important to the positioning of Don Quixote Channel, and it is the first impression of the shining debut.

In conjunction with the debut of the Don Quixote Channel, Sisyphus Pictures will also announce the next stage of the production plan for the first stage of the series, including "London Life", "Lies and Lies", "The Crown", and "Go to the World of X" Wait for the series, as well as their cooperation plan with BBC TV, the whole grand blueprint is about to unfold slowly.

After two years of preparations, two years of brewing, and the entire Hollywood speculation for two years, Sisyphus Pictures will finally officially announce it to the world.

The work of André and Arthur is very important. Of course, after the Don Quixote channel is launched, the future cooperation plan will continue to be promoted. For example, the hard bone of the Berlin Film Festival cannot be easily given up, but it is officially unveiled for the first time. The inventory is undoubtedly the top priority.

It is precisely because of this that Lanly personally called Alexander Hamilton to ask him to help.

Afterwards, Alexander hosted a high-end party in Edinburgh. The guests were all important figures among the nobles and elites, and Roman Abramovich was also among them.

It is true that Renly can call Roman directly to express his gratitude, but this is too cliché and too light, even frivolous-he and Roman are friends, but Roman is not Andre or Matthew; in comparison, one The party is what Roman needs most. It not only expresses respect in a grand and formal manner, but also sets up a stage for Roman to open up the situation among the British elite and give back with practical actions.

It's like Romain's back movement.

Compared with language, this is the correct way to open "thank you".

The entire Sisyphus Film Industry is operating at high speed, while Lan Li... is still on holiday. The shopkeeper is enjoying the autumn in New York.

Even the screening of "Lobster" did not attend.

Obviously, Lan Li, who is on vacation, consciously stays away from the screen, away from the camera, away from scripts and movies, and really relaxes himself completely.

In fact, "Lobster" is also slightly low-key.

In the last life, after landing at the Cannes Film Festival, "Lobster" failed to find a distributor who was willing to accept it. It took a year to go around and release it in North America, so it missed the 2015 awards season and postponed the awards to 2016. Season debuts-while "Lobster" won an award in Cannes in the previous life, it still faces such a situation.

This also directly proves the core point of the conversation between Lanly and Thierry: popular art films really lack market support, and the living space for creators is getting smaller and smaller; at the same time, those senior film lovers who really like movies miss it. It is also a pity to have these excellent unpopular movies.

Online streaming media provides such a platform. For creators and enthusiasts, it is a win-win situation. At the same time, if the Don Quixote channel can also be profitable, it will be a triumphant victory, and ultimately it will be able to feed back to the creative atmosphere of the art film. To cultivate the soil for the Cannes Film Festival and so on.

What's more, "Lobster" is not a "gravity" kind of work that must be viewed in theaters to be able to feel the effect——

Of course, for movie theaters, this is obviously bad news, because it means that movie screening platforms have more choices. Streaming media directly grabs jobs with them, although it is said that "Lobster" cannot find a distributor, that is, the theater itself. Abandoned works, but it is one thing for them to give up, and another thing for others to take away. It is absolutely impossible for the theater alliance to make streaming media easy, and there must be a fight next.

But that's a story.

In this life, "Lobster" bears the name of Lanly, and it is still published jointly by Sisyphus Pictures and Sony Classics-until the official establishment of the Don Quixote channel, the cooperation agreement between the two parties is still valid; and after that, Andre is evaluating the market and seeking the possibility of Sisyphus Pictures establishing its own distribution channels.

The rapid growth of Hall Ventures gave Andre more confidence.

Thanks to the existence of Lanli, the North American distribution of "Lobster" did not encounter too many difficulties, and Sony Classics arranged the art theaters to show them step by step.

However, compared with the "Blast Drummer", "Drunk Country Folk Songs" and so on, the "lobster" whose sword goes slanting forward, the topic of discussion is still slightly inferior——

Whether it is utopia or dystopia, works of this kind can always find more resonance and discussion in Europe, compared to North America.

Sony Classics also took this into consideration when arranging the screening plan. Even for Lanly’s works, they did not rashly expand the screenings quickly. Instead, they benchmarked "Love Crazy", hoping that this work can be seen in the minority. Arouse more in-depth discussion among fans, rather than comprehensive promotion.

Such a targeted plan is to make a fuss at the word-of-mouth level, hoping that the film can rely on word-of-mouth and the appeal of the blue gift to make a **** road in the awards season. Otherwise, such noir films want to win more attention in the awards season. It's very difficult. Ougs Lansmos from Greece is not the Coen brothers, the darling of North America.

Sony Classics is still looking forward to "Lobster" to be able to gain something above the Oscars.

On November 13, "Lobster" was officially shown in a low-key theater in the United States, only one in the New York area-as Don Quixote's important North American base camp, Lanly's appeal is absolutely unmatched, but The box office box office of "Lobster" is still slightly inferior, and it has not been able to make history again.

In the end, the single library box office was $150,000!

Wait, this number is actually called "slightly inferior"?

Of course, compared to the crazy figure of "Burst Drummer" last year of US$250,000 in the single museum ~lightnovelpub.net~ this is indeed a lower level; compared to the US$200,000 of "Drunk Country Folk Songs" in the previous year. Strong numbers, this is indeed a slight drop, but such numbers are far from being low-key.

The box office of 150,000 US dollars is not only the highest number so far in 2015, it easily surpasses the two works of "Steve Jobs" and "Big Short"; it is also above the box office list of the film history single library. Able to be among the top 20, ranked 14th, and once again created great results.

As of 2015, in the top 20 list of the box office of North American Film History, Lan Li alone occupied four seats.

The single-library data of "Lobster" can never be said to be "disappointed". It is still the well-deserved top spot in the North American market. It is one of the most watched and most anticipated works in the entire awards season, even the "Wild Hunter" that appeared later at the end "I have accumulated expectations for a full year, and I have not been able to complete the go-ahead. In the end, "Lobster" was the box office champion of the point-screening in 2015. For the third consecutive year, Lan Li held such a title.

For art film lovers, the influence of "Renley Hall" has been deeply imprinted, especially in the New York base camp, no one can surpass it. This seems to have formed a conditioned reflex, just like Apple and Sony’s The brand effect is average, and it really creates a fanaticism.
