It was still hot at noon on the streets of New York. Young Ted had just finished running for a customer, parked his car next to a convenience store, and went into the store to buy an iced Coke.
Inside the transparent freezer, new patterns are printed on the red cans.
The convenience store owner suddenly said: "Blue is not bad either."
"Red is my belief!" Ted opened the freezer, took out the red can, pointed to the brand new image of Martin on it, and said, "He is my leader!"
Another young customer in the store suddenly said: "Coke God, Forever!"
Ted raised the can and responded with the most widely circulated words of Martin's blessing speech: "I wish the world had Coca-Cola."
The convenience store owner secretly muttered that the people in the Coca-Cola Cult were all a bunch of idiots brainwashed by Martin Davis.
Ted took another can, and after paying the bill, he returned to the car, opened a can and took a swig. In the hot weather, he felt cool from head to toe.
He looked at the pattern on the other can. The leader Martin changed his appearance, jumped up in ordinary clothes, and swung out a can of Coca-Cola with his right hand.
Below is a sentence; "I control my own life!"
Back at the company, Ted took advantage of his break to log into MSN, entered the New York fan group, and found that someone had posted pictures in it.
Two pictures look up and are shocking - a wanted warrant!
First picture: Wesley!
Following below is an image of Martin.
Ted picked up the unopened can of Coke and found that the image on the wanted poster was almost identical to the can. The only difference was that on the wanted poster, Martin was holding a gun instead of Coke.
Another image: Fox.
The image is of Angelina Jolie holding up a pistol with an extended magazine.
It's obvious that this is movie promotion.
At the beginning of this year, Ted got the opportunity to attend the premiere through the lottery of the "Eyes on the Mountain" viral marketing. Soon after he came back, he joined Martin's fan group in New York, successfully bought a commemorative Coke, and became a member of the Coke God Cult. One member.
The guy next to him came over on a swivel chair and picked up an unopened Coke: "Martin's new movie Wanted will be released soon!"
"Go buy it yourself!" Ted snatched the Coke back and said, "This time the movie is linked to Coca-Cola for marketing."
The guy pointed to the wanted poster on the computer, and then pointed to the can image: "There is also a movie version of Coke."
Ted said: "The Coca-Cola Company treats the leader well."
"It's all business interests!" The guy said: "You haven't seen their latest financial report. In the quarter after signing Martin, sales increased by 7% thanks to the marketing of Coke God!"
Ted gave him a Coke: "Forget it, it will be released in November, and you will be treated to it then!"
As October is approaching, the promotion and marketing of "Wanted" has begun to go into full force, and the main promotional poster has been officially released.
Martin and Julie are on the left and right of the poster. Morgan Freeman, whose image is nearly two-thirds smaller, stands behind and above the two protagonists in his usual good image.
Three star actors with certain market appeal all appear on the main poster.
Jolie has not yet returned from Africa, but news about her is frequently out of the circle, especially in the international current affairs section.
She is pictured with war refugees.
Pictured as UNHCR Ambassador.
Articles written by myself.
It has appeared in mainstream media in North America.
America also needs such a person to stand up at this time. To a certain extent, Jolie also caters to the needs of the American mainstream.
"Mr. and Mrs. Smith", released in June, has grossed over US$180 million at the North American box office and over US$340 million globally, allowing Jolie to successfully turn around in her main film industry and her appeal has increased dramatically.
Actively participate in current social affairs, improve one's own style and expand influence.
Warner Studios, in the post-production recording studio, Martin is wearing a headset and dubbing several scenes.
"That fat lady is the most disgusting boss in the world. She makes us do repetitive tasks every day and doesn't even want to pay overtime when we work overtime. I'm so depressed that I'm about to explode. It's so miserable!"
Martin said this line with great emotion.
Director Leterrier, a Frenchman, shouted: "Well said, Martin, I really doubt you have been abused by your boss!"
Martin took off his headset, came out of the recording studio, and asked, "What did you say?"
Leterrier repeated.
Martin shrugged: "I've had some unscrupulous bosses in Atlanta."
Leterrier said matter-of-factly: "If you encounter this many times, you should unite and launch a strike. We French people are either on strike or preparing to strike."
"It's Paris after all," Martin said.
Leterrier nodded: "Parisians have rich experience and tradition in this area."
Martin asked curiously: "The PD in Paris doesn't crack down?"
"They tend to be surrounded." Leterrier said, not as if he was joking: "Then take off your arms and join the strike. PD is also a job, and of course you have the right to strike."
Martin thinks it makes sense.
Today's work is over, and the two of them left the recording studio together.
There was a beautiful French actress waiting at the door. When she saw Leterrier, she gave her a hug and then a passionate kiss.
Martin is ready to go.
Leterrier broke away from his female companion and introduced: "My girlfriend Ella."
Ella is tall and has a great figure. She took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Martin."
Martin shook hands with her and exchanged pleasantries.
Well-known directors, like stars, never lack for female companions. Martin remembers that when the filming started, Leterrier's girlfriend was not this one. During the filming, he changed his boyfriend and then changed to his girlfriend at the end of the filming.
Now look, Girlfriend is updated again.
Leterrier patted Ella on the back: "You go to the front hall and wait for me. I have something to talk to Martin."
Ella was obedient and went to the front hall obediently.
Leterrier gestured to Ella's back with his eyes: "How's it going? It's sexy, isn't it?"
Martin praised: "You have a very good sense."
He originally thought that the French director wanted to show off, but Leterrier's next sentence was unexpected: "Are you interested in falling in love with her?"
Martin looked over Letelier in surprise.
Leterrier was open: "We can spend the evening together."
Of course, Martin would refuse such an inappropriate invitation: "I have a regular girlfriend and I love her very much."
Leterrier was somewhat disappointed: "Okay."
"Let's talk another day." Martin left first.
Bruce emerged from around the corner and followed.
Leterrier couldn't help but frown: "Hollywood is so conservative?"
Martin went to the conference room on the other side and waited for Thomas and the people from Warner Bros. to come over.
Bruce also came in. Seeing that there was no one else in the room, he said, "The director is very disappointed."
Martin reminded: "You forgot, he is a two-way plug and had a boyfriend during the filming."
Bruce said: "There are so many people with eccentricities in this world."
"Fame and wealth amplify people's desires." Martin patted him and pointed at himself: "We are not the same."
Bruce said: "It's different, we are not as perverted as they are."
There was a newspaper lying next to it. Martin saw Julie at a glance, and when he took it over, he discovered that the New York Times actually published an article signed by Julie.
The title is very Julie.
"In the future, how we respond to the refugee crisis will become a yardstick for measuring freedom, democracy and human rights."
The article lists items of data obtained by Julie during her visits to the Middle East and Africa.
It has to be said that this woman can be turned into a Madonna by the national media. The social environment cannot be ignored, but the key lies in her own marketing.
The conference room door opened from the outside, Thomas and Daniel came in together, each pulled out their chairs and sat down.
Daniel saw the newspaper in Martin's hand and said: "I have communicated with Julie and asked her to come back in the middle or end of next month. Currently, she is constantly talking to Pitt on the phone, trying to maintain the relationship until she returns to Los Angeles and then officially announces the breakup. "
Martin understood: "When there is a huge wave of traffic, the national media will once again speculate."
Daniel said: "Julie found a very good reason to break up. In the future, apart from movies and children, she will devote all her energy to charity and refugee relief. She will have no time to waste on personal relationships."
Martin determined that Julie had awakened.
As soon as this operation came out, the liberal media did not blow her up.
Daniel added: "So, the focus of publicity during this period will be on you."
Of course Martin will actively cooperate: "No problem, specific plan?"
"Your relationship with Blake Lively is a key point." Regarding Martin's personal affairs, Thomas took over: "I have fully communicated with Blake's agent and her father Ernie, and I only wait for Blake to return to Los Angeles. , you will make your relationship public, and the new project planned by Ernie will also be announced to the public at the same time."
Martin asked: "The moment Blake came out of the airport and I went to pick him up?"
Daniel shook his head: "It's not appropriate. The occasion is too messy and there are too many uncontrollable factors in the photos."
He specifically explained: "The photos you publish for the first time must be beautiful enough to attract more people's attention, so we planned a street photoshoot, a street photoshoot that is completely under control."
"Street photography" is never street photography. Martin understood this very early and responded: "Okay, you plan the details."
Daniel asked: "If you live with Blake in the future, please inform the crew in time."
Martin had this awareness when he chose the path of stardom: "I will notify you at least three days in advance."
Title to the photo, of course, remains with Martin and Black and will be sold to the media.
These are regular publicity methods. Daniel provided detailed plans, and some things that happened during the filming of the crew will also be used for publicity and hype.
For example, Martin humbly learned acting from Morgan Freeman and asked for his experience in playing various roles.
Martin thought of something that could be used for publicity: "Next month, my community in Coty will hold a shooting competition. If I can get a good ranking, I can also report it."
"That's okay." Daniel nodded: "It fits the role."
While leaving the studio, Martin met action director Chad, who lived on the edge of Malibu, not far from Angel Shooting Club.
Martin simply made an appointment with him to practice shooting with him on the weekend.
