792 Thinking Jump

With hesitation, Cole said uncertainly, "Maybe we should call Lance..." Cole's eyes fell on Dorothy. After all, the college's public relations is mainly Dorothy's job. He asked Lance for his opinion now, which was equivalent to dismantling Dorothy's station, and he didn't know how Dorothy would react.

Dorothy didn't answer immediately. At first she thought it was just a joke, but then she realized the urgency in Cole's eyes. The smile on the corner of her mouth slowly began to solidify, and her eyes gradually settled down and fell into thinking, "In fact, this is a good idea. Lance can always put forward shocking ideas, right?"

Not to mention the others, just talking about the distribution plans and promotional strategies of previous works, Lance's use of the Internet has opened a new door to the world for the entire Hollywood.

Dorothy's approval made Cole hesitate, and supported her hands on the armrest of the chair, and looked at Dorothy's expression with her fingers crossed, exploring whether Dorothy was joking or sincere. Dorothy rolled her eyes at Cole's reaction, "I'm not an agent, how to maximize the resource effect, this is my job."

After being ridiculed by Dorothy, Cole shrugged and did not react too much. He let go of his hands and pressed the call button on the phone on the desk, connecting his assistant, "Aliana, help me connect Lance." Cole raised his head and looked at the clock on the wall, and said to himself, "I don't know how the crew's work is going." It was past 2 pm in Los Angeles and past 9 pm in Namibia. According to the normal working schedule, the crew should be in the end stage.

The phone rang for a while before it was connected. Percy's voice came out of the hands-free earpiece and echoed in the office, "This is Percy." It was simple and clear, cold and indifferent. Even when facing the familiar Cole, there was not much intimacy.

But Cole had long been used to Percy's style and didn't care at all, "Percy, this is Cole. Has the crew finished work today?"

"Yes, the work was finished thirty minutes ago." Percy's answer was still refined, "Are you looking for Lance?"

"Is he free now?" Cole now knows Lance's habits. After entering the crew, he devotes himself to it, and he is almost infatuated. So even if the day's work is over, it doesn't mean that Lance is free. Percy responded and gave a positive answer, but Cole then stopped Percy, "Wait, wait, and call him again, I'll ask you first. Did you tell Lance about the list of Golden Globes awards? How did he react?"

"Interesting." Percy's answer made Col stunned. "He said, 'very interesting'." This made Col and Dorothy exchange a look. Neither of them understood what Lance's reaction was going on, so they couldn't help but ask. Percy was not surprised, because when they heard Lance's answer, they were full of questions. Michael Fassbender stood up for Lance. "Lance said that he expected George to launch a counterattack, but he did not expect the counterattack speed to be so fast. Obviously, what agreement was reached behind Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures."

Percy did not explain in depth, but Cole and Dorothy could not help but exchanged sights again. In fact, they all had similar speculations, not only Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures, but also 20th Century Fox, which was also involved. Since the Hollywood Foreign Press Association dared to issue such a result, they would definitely not be afraid of media accusations. There must be unknown deals behind this.

However, speculation is always just speculation. Even if this is true, they are helpless. Faced with giant crocodiles like the six major film companies, their space for activities is really limited.

Cole breathed a sigh of relief. He was originally worried that after Lance escaped from Africa, he would really put all his hopes on "Crazy Max 4" and give up "Fruit Hard Candy". But now it seems that Lance also has a gap in his chest and will never surrender easily. Thinking about it further, Lance really left the entire Hollywood behind and let George go. This is obviously impossible. Just look at the outcome of Diorama Film.

It seems that the choice of this phone call is correct.

"Coll?" Lance's voice came from the other end of the phone. His magnetic voice was a little tired, but his emotions were very clear. It can be felt that today's shooting should be smoother. Otherwise, after staying in the boundless desert for nearly two months, he would have been on the verge of collapse. "I happened to have something to look for you. You go find Dorothy today and let her go to Green Ridge Street tomorrow to have a meeting with James Corden."

"Hey, Lance." Dorothy greeted him.

"Oh, Dorothy, are you here too?" Lance greeted lightly, but then a noise came from around him, and Lance could be heard intermittently, "Albert... rehearsal again... The explosion was too small... Well, yes, that's it. I have something to do now, I'll talk about it later." Then Lance's voice came from far and near, "Where did we just talk about it?" With a "bang" sound, the noise around him quieted down. "Yes, meeting. I originally planned to wait for a telephone conference with James to explain the matter. You will discuss the specific situation with James tomorrow, but you just call now, so I'll talk to you first. The 'Rampage Road' can be set."

Well……

Cole and Dorothy were not mentally prepared, and Lance did not prepare at all or wait. He directly threw out a bombshell, which made both of them stunned for a moment.

"Raging Road" is scheduled? The problem of awards season has not been solved yet, and they have already started to snipe the box office of commercial blockbusters? Isn't their main purpose today for the prospect of "Fruit Hard Candy" at the Oscars? What should Warner Bros., Sony Pictures and Twentieth Century Fox do? And what about George Clooney who is eyeing? Is this rhythm too jumping a little? Wait... "Raging Road" is scheduled! Is the shooting over? This early second wave of publicity is still in full swing, and now we are going to preheat the release? Such a fast pace, is there no problem with the quality? What is Lance planning?

In the end, Cole came back to his senses first, coughed twice, and concealed his embarrassment, "Lance, is the movie about to be finished?"

"No, no, it's still early." Lance laughed easily, and one-third of the movie was not filmed, and these one-third were the climax of the entire work. Whether it was a fight scene or an explosion scene, it would be more grand and more exciting. Conservatively, it would not be completed until late February. If the desert weather does not cooperate or the shooting process is delayed, it would be very normal to delay until mid-March. "Even if you miss the Oscar, this is not only not impossible, but also a very likely situation."

Lance's words were very relaxed, and it could be heard that he had been mentally prepared for a long time, and was not surprised by this situation. But the faces of Cole and Dorothy were not very good-looking - if Lance really missed the Oscar?

However, Lance did not pause and continued, "But if nothing unexpected happens, the shooting will definitely be completed before March ends. So, I hope the movie can participate in the competition this summer." This is also the initial goal of Lance's "Rampage Road" plan. Since 80% of the movie was actually shot, and Lance strictly followed the chronological order during the shooting process, this led to an extremely difficult shooting process, but post-production was relatively relaxed.

According to Lance's estimate, all post-production can be completed before June arrives. But everything has accidents. In order to avoid accidents, it will be really not worth the effort to avoid being caught off guard or even forced to change the schedule. Therefore, Lance made such a decision after careful consideration-

"It is best to schedule the movie in July in July. I will ask James to discuss it internally first, then test the tone of major theaters, and finally draw up a suitable schedule. However, the best situation is the second or third week of July." Lance said his thoughts.

Dorothy has also seen strong winds and waves, and soon came back to his senses, "So, you hope to start the promotion of the movie now." If it was released in July, it seems a bit early to warm up now, and it will be too late to wait until April or May. But the work "Rampage Road" is different.

This work has always been at the forefront since its establishment. During the filming process, the active publicity has caused heated discussions on the Internet. Even in the awards season boom, the topic of "Raging Road" is still high on the Internet. As long as they can continue this momentum and promote it in a mighty way, by July, the expectation of "Raging Road" will reach an incredible height. However, in this case... Once the quality of the work cannot meet expectations, it will inevitably usher in an avalanche-like defeat, just like "Troy" and "Sahara Cavalry".

Will Lance make the same mistake?

What's more, this is not the only difficulty they face. "If the summer season is hit, what about the schedules of other companies? Don't we need to inquire? The schedules of the summer season should have already had a glimpse." Dorothy's thoughts were turning rapidly, and sparks began to burst out continuously.

"Haha." Lance chuckled and said confidently, "No, don't worry about them. We should focus on ourselves. After we set the schedule, they will definitely move, but I'm waiting for their moves."

What? Wait, what does it mean?
Chapter completed!
