Time quickly came to the morning of the next day. Liu Qingshan, who had not slept all night, finally completed all the post-editing. After notifying Xueyu Studio to come and receive it, he rushed to Third Ring Road North with Jin Xishan. Beijing Film Studio.
Today is the official formation date of "The Legend of Zhen Huan". Except for Wang Siqi who has not arrived yet, all other actors will gather today to hold the first crew meeting.
Three days later, on September 20th, the entire crew will rush to the Ming and Qing Palace Scenic Area in Hengdian.
And Liu Qingshan is about to join the filming crew of "A World Without Thieves". The filming location is not in Lhasa, Tibet, but in Xiahe County, Gansu Province. There is Labrang Monastery, known as the world's Tibetan learning center, located in the southwest of the province. It is located in the transitional area between the northeastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the western Loess Plateau.
But before that, the main actors of the crew need to undergo a short-term training. In order to help the actors get into the role, Feng Zhigang didn't know where to get it, and specially prepared a box of video tapes for the actors. It is strictly stipulated that several main characters must participate in the training in person. .
He requires every actor to practice carefully before joining the crew and learn to become a qualified thief. For this reason, Liu Ruying joked that joining the crew will become a "thief head" crash course. This is to let the actors open up another professional skills?
After the filming of the exterior scenes in Gan Province is completed, we will return to Kyoto. This time, the shooting base was chosen in a greenhouse in a science and technology park in Xiaotangshan.
The studio rented by the crew covers an area of 8,000 square meters, and the rental fee alone costs more than one million yuan, and the "out of nothing" train that Feng Zhigang spent to build cost another million yuan.
The train is about 40 meters long and is divided into four carriages: soft sleeper, hard sleeper, dining car, and hard seat. The story of "A World Without Thieves" will next unfold in those four carriages.
There are quite a few people in this crew, and various investors are also here. The representative of Xueyu Entertainment is Liao Xin, and this guy is very popular at the moment.
In addition to some familiar faces from major investors, Liu Qingshan also met a long-lost acquaintance, Zhou Zhinan, the boss of Photovoltaic Media.
His wife Feng Xinru is also there. This model couple is a major feature in the circle. However, under the surface of husband and wife, only a few people know that the largest shareholder of Photovoltaic Media is actually Feng Xinru. My natal family is the Feng family, the top business family in the mainland.
But this does not mean that Zhou Zhinan's ability is insufficient. In fact, his photovoltaic media was basically started from scratch, and the Feng family's financial investment only happened later.
The reason why Zhou Zhinan transferred more shares was because he wanted to invest his future business focus in overseas markets, so that a large amount of funds could be returned to him.
Seeing the arrival of Liu Qingshan today, as one of the investors of the film, Zhou Zhinan expressed his dissatisfaction to him, which seemed to be a complaint but actually revealed the close relationship between them: "Shanzi, what you did this time is not very benevolent. It's such a big deal." I didn’t tell me about the project earlier. I only found out about it when Mr. Han called me and accidentally revealed a little bit about it!”
The Mr. Han he was talking about was right in front of him: "What Lao Zhou said is true. As early as when you were filming "Let the Bullets Fly", he expressed his dissatisfaction several times!"
Liu Qingshan didn't take it seriously: "You can't blame me. Now the entire entertainment industry knows that you, Boss Zhou, are exploring overseas markets, and you are used to cooperating with Mr. San and others. These people are also very powerful, and they often want to find investments." Get up and find their phone on your head!"
This is the truth. A large group of forces gathered around Liu Qingshan, just to get the status of the project as soon as possible.
Everyone knows that he has never made a mistake in his scripts, and the projects he handles are regarded as money-making machines, which has become a topic in the industry that circulates not only among senior managers.
Zhou Zhinan shook his head: "You can't say that. It's true that my current focus is overseas, but Photovoltaic Media started with mainland film and television dramas. The traditional business advantages cannot be lost. I can clearly distinguish what is more important and less important." ! On the other hand, your Third Master is like a hound that has picked up the scent. Such a keen information channel makes many people jealous!"
Not many people dare to call Han Shanping a hunting dog. Even the Wang brothers from Zhongyi who grew up in the same compound as him have to call him Third Master in a polite manner in front of him.
It can be seen that Zhou Zhinan, the owner of Photovoltaic Media, who seems to be far less prosperous than Zhongyi, still has strong support on the unknown side, and it is definitely not just the giant Buddha of the Feng family.
In fact, Liu Qingshan didn't know much about his background, but after hearing his words today, he couldn't help but pay attention to it.
It was obvious that Han Shanping knew the details of this person, "Come on, don't describe yourself like a resentful woman. What you got this time is my share. If you weren't an old friend who knew the details, you wouldn't want to get involved in this film." Come in!"
He turned to look at Liu Qingshan and continued to reveal Zhou Zhinan's background: "This guy is not only counting on investment from the entertainment industry, he has mines in China, and there are not just one or two. He has shown strong participation in our movies. The demand is more to show his presence in the industry. In fact, he does not expect this share of the shares!"
Her husband was attacked, and Feng Xinru was the first to express her dissatisfaction: "Third Master, I can just tell Shanzi some things, but I dare not spread them outside. There are many people involved, and our Anan is only a specific manager." !”
In fact, Liu Qingshan was already aware of Han Shanping's intentions. With this person's status, even ridicule in public would contain certain information.
Because Huaying is the weather vane in this industry, and the will it represents is self-evident. As the leader of such an organization, it is absolutely impossible to speak without thinking through the brain.
Often, a sentence he inadvertently leaks may cause shocks in the industry, such as the shock in the financial stocks of entertainment companies, the possible release of new industry rules, changes in import and export film and television production quotas, and so on.
Therefore, Liu Qingshan believed that he deliberately leaked information related to Zhou Zhinan to him, and he chose to do so in front of the Zhous and his wife, which made the mystery even greater.
However, based on his understanding of Han Shanping, it can be guessed that he was out of goodwill, especially when it came to dealing with Zhou Zhinan, and he was helping him from the side.
Why do you say that? If we understand Zhou Zhinan's next business plan, we can judge Liu Qingshan's key role in it.
Because it would be very difficult for a purely Chinese investor to seize a piece of the overseas market with just its brains and capital strength. Man said that the current development of China Entertainment lags far behind the Western entertainment industry, and is even far inferior to that of surrounding countries. several neighbors. In particular, Photovoltaic Media chose to enter the United States, which is known as the global entertainment center. The entertainment industry there is world-famous for its terrifying xenophobic momentum.
Even if the entry point is just a small local station for local Chinese, based on the local Chinese-speaking environment, the future expansion intention is obvious. Lao America is a bridgehead that is very good at collecting strategic information in various industries. Their information data collection will be more accurate and clear than the internal strategy formulation of this Chinese-owned enterprise.
Just think about the old and American market, which has always rejected foreign capital. How could it be ignored? How could the same bed where one is sleeping allow others to sleep peacefully?
But among the Chinese at the moment, only Liu Qingshan has an international influence that transcends all Chinese stars. His fan base is spread across five continents. If he can occupy a certain share in it, you can imagine the treatment he will encounter in the future. It would be so much better.
Moreover, apart from being an actor, he is also highly topical. What is the purpose of the capital side in the United States to block xenophobia? Isn’t it just business interests, fear of being squeezed out of profit margins?
Since Liu Qingshan's topicality can attract close attention from the whole society, it means that controversy and ratings coexist, and there is room for the development of social influence and economic benefits through multiple channels.
Those old Americans basically can’t see this? Or to put it more simply, they prefer to be thrown a stone into the calm water, so that they can take advantage of the opportunity of causing the water surface to fluctuate to grab their share of the profits.
As for whether you take advantage of the opportunity to catch some small fish or catch a huge whale shark, it all depends on your luck.
Based on this reasoning, whether they are willing to accept Liu Qingshan's pebble or choose to continue to maintain water surface safety depends on the ambition of the capital side or the attitude of the demand.
After refining this move, the conclusion can only be drawn. As the super aircraft carrier of China's entertainment industry, how could China Film Academy fail to calculate this step?
Liu Qingshan even suspected that this was a scene sung by Han Shanping and Zhou Zhinan, and its purpose was simply to let Liu Qingshan learn about the backstory of Photovoltaic Media. In addition to the well-known Feng family, there were also others who had received generous funds. at.
You must know that once Photovoltaic Media extends its business tentacles to the United States, what it will face is not those Chinese-funded country bumpkins, but international capital that can make waves in most of the global business market. Without a certain net worth, with such forces It’s not easy to deal with.
He had discussed the issue of overseas development with Zhou Zhinan before, and even mentioned some conditions for him to join and the specific division of responsibilities for each of them.
But after all, the gap between talking on paper and actual operation is as big as heaven and earth. Now that Zhou Zhinan has basically determined the acquisition target, it is inevitable to take the opportunity to show Liu Qingshan his muscles and determination to win.
The reason why Liu Qingshan suspected that these two people were singing in harmony was because he had cooperated with Huaying several times and was deeply aware of Han Shanping's oligarchic status in the industry.
There is almost no possibility for outsiders to join the project halfway through his participation, but Photovoltaic Media has allocated a part of the share quota belonging to Huaying. It is terrifying to think about what this means!
