"Brother Hua is an outstanding talent. He can be regarded as my senior. I was very familiar with him before. But after he played Cheng Yong, I wanted to cry when I saw him. The performance was really good. He himself said that he finally has a person. A masterpiece!" Liu Qingshan nodded cooperatively.
Minister Liang kept talking: "And Huang Mao, he's a young actor, I don't remember his name. He played the role of the most filial, kind, righteous and brave, especially at the end when he opened the car In the scene when the truck rushed out of the warehouse, my wife burst into tears and my thighs were pinched blue at the time!"
"The actor who plays Lu Yiyi is not bad either. His attitude towards acting without sacrificing his own image is worthy of learning from all young actors today."
"His name is Wang Chuanjun. He is a college student who just graduated after the New Year. In order to play this role well, he went to the hospital for more than two months and endured a lot of hardships. He can be considered a thorough understanding of the character."
...
Two people, one big and one small, who were as smart as foxes, actually stayed at the gate to discuss the plot.
No one took the initiative to mention the purpose of coming today, but the exchanges between them became more and more heated.
They were not in a hurry, but they were anxious enough for the old people who came running from the conference room to greet them.
In the end, a factory director named Luo from Hunan Province couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted the two people's role discussion: "I say Minister Liang, Mr. Liu, we can't always block the door and escape from reality, sooner or later... Don’t you have to go into the room to talk and solve the problem?”
Before Minister Liang could say anything, Liu Qingshan clasped his fists and raised his hands: "Sorry, sorry, I didn't expect you have a meeting to hold. I'm here to sign the contract, so I won't disturb you!"
After that, he turned around and was about to walk away. Before he could think of it, he was pulled back by Director Luo: "Okay, you two foxes, one old and one young, stop pretending. It's time to solve the problem. I won't give you any money today." If you’re happy, no one will want to leave!”
Liu Qingshan couldn't get angry with him, so he could only continue to pretend to be confused: "What does your meeting have to do with me? Mr. Han, how about I come back another day?"
Seeing that he was pointing the finger at him, Han Shanping had to stand up and speak: "Mr. Liu, please stay. These seniors in the industry have something to ask you. Give me some face and stay and listen first!"
Director Luo's face was already filled with anger: "Don't act for us here. You all know it in your heart. Stop talking nonsense and sit inside. If we don't solve it today, we old guys will sleep here!"
At this time, Minister Liang, who was the biggest leader at the scene, had to express his position: "Mr. Liu, let's go in and sit down. We can't hide from this situation!"
Liu Qingshan was the most unjust one among all the people. He was dragged into the water for no reason. Naturally, there was no shame in the whole process.
Even among the people setting traps for him today, many of them are seniors he has always respected, but wanting his script is not so easy to negotiate.
In the end, Minister Liang came forward to plead, and he gave up the movie and TV series promised to Sun Chun and his wife a week ago.
In fact, he has been waiting for Minister Liang to speak. He has the highest position here, but it is impossible not to take any responsibility.
Only if he comes forward can it be considered that Radio and Television owes him a big favor, otherwise it would not want to be plotted against and would suffer unspeakably.
Of course, the script will still be paid according to the market price, but it basically loses the right to speak in the production. At least, the roles of Sun Chun and his wife were barely won.
Naturally, only two scripts cannot satisfy so many units. Fortunately, everyone knows that scripts are not easy to create, and it is impossible for anyone to write them whenever they want, and they always have several in stock.
After finally dealing with the matter, Liu Qingshan quickly called Sun Chun after leaving the building.
After listening to the explanation, the other party burst into laughter: "Lili and I were made from a unit like this, and we know what's fishy in it. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter who we cooperate with. Thank you for helping us keep that Two characters."
Liu Qingshan was not as gloating as he was: "But one thing I have to remind Brother Chun is that the final quality of the shot may
It didn’t have the effect I expected. Those older people were so cruel. They wouldn’t even let go of the adaptation rights. They said that I was a junior and had never experienced that era. Many plots were different from the historical background and needed a lot of changes. Brother Chun, where can I find someone to reason with? Market demand follows certain evolution rules of the times. If you completely copy history, wouldn’t it become a documentary? How can you attract the audience's interest if you don't have a plot to interpret? "
"Indeed, the reason why they are in such a state of decline has a lot to do with being conservative. If they don't know how to cater to the market and still cling to their previous habits, it will be difficult to win the market."
"So, in anger, I refused the naming rights of the two scripts. No one can enter the market under my guise. Is it easy for me to earn a reputation in the past few years? They make such random changes, and I will insist on my signature. , which is equivalent to ruining your creative reputation!"
"Master Han is also present. His Huaying is a capital tycoon. Do you have any plans to invest?"
"The third master is as smart as a monkey. He took the initiative to withdraw before I even raised the issue of naming rights. I think he understood a lot of the secrets inside before I did."
"Yes, at least without your screenwriter, these two projects have lost their market opportunity. So do Lili and I still need to get involved?"
"You should act or act. The general framework of the story can still be guaranteed. Moreover, you are still a big villain in that movie, which will be a good opportunity to hone your acting skills. I wanted to help you, but I didn't expect to show up in the middle. What a mess!"
"Shanzi, actually, Lili and I have no plans to further our careers. We are not short of money. We are still engaged in this industry, more to satisfy our hobbies. Besides, Lili's family's situation is special. , we can’t appear on the entertainment page too frequently. But thank you anyway, that’s it this time, and we’ll work together again if we have the chance!”
"Please help me tell Brother Zhou that I couldn't get him to be the director."
"He is different from me. If you lose this opportunity, you should consider my brother for other projects. His ability is no problem. I can guarantee this."
"Well, I have similar thoughts. If I have a good script in the future, I will definitely consider Brother Zhou first."
The matter here has been resolved, and he is still on the way. The phone ringing for him again.
This time it was a call from overseas, and the caller was Tracy: "The God of Medicine has entered the final list of five nominations, and the two scripts you exchanged have also found their own fate. The question now is how many awards will be won in the end? There’s a problem, you have to create market influence yourself in this regard, the academy can’t help but come forward again!”
"It is not easy to get the final nomination. After all, it is a foreign language film, and the timing of entry is too sensitive."
"Time is a little tight. Fortunately, the Oscar organizing committee proposed it themselves. They don't want to have problems in the final voting. Otherwise, if they don't win an award, their authority will be greatly reduced."
"So you called me. Did they look for you?"
"I can't hide anything from you! This year's Oscar organizing committee has said that it has talked with several major theater chains in the United States to at least correct your movie schedule during the normal release period, but we are here Whether the release period can be extended depends on the quality of your movie and the box office. Their suggestion is that you organize your fan group and focus on boosting the box office in the last few days of the normal release period. The theater chain also It’s good to have data to support the postponement of the release.”
"Isn't this cheating?"
"Don't put it so bluntly. Although I am from the academy, I also know that no blockbuster movie is truly completely innocent. If the hype method is reasonable, it is also a good marketing method. In addition, let you The crowd of fans also helps to increase the rating. I know you don’t bother to do this, but the situation of this film is a bit special after all.”
"That can't be too outrageous. How is the current overseas box office? I'm too busy during this period to pay attention to it."
"The attendance rate during prime time has been very stable, but the data for other times has dropped significantly. After all, the film has been released for 20 days."
"Where are your professional film critics?"
"The Rotten Tomatoes score has always been very high. This website's evaluation standards are widely accepted, and its evaluation results are often used as a reference in the industry. Your movie has a Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating of 89%, which is already among the top ten in history. It is ahead of the times, which shows that its professional film reviews are still quite high. What I am worried about is not this problem, but that due to different national conditions, overseas audiences do not have that high sense of immersion in the film. This situation is not so high after 20 days. It’s already starting to show after the screening.”
"Then what should I do?"
"My personal suggestion is that time is too tight and it is difficult to achieve obvious results through other methods. However, your two movie interludes are still quite famous in Europe and the United States. I suggest that you take the opportunity to release the English version of the two songs and then hand them over to your The fan team will pool their efforts to help promote it!"
"It's that simple?"
"After all, your movie has received too much attention, and other methods are too obvious. Only this method can produce an obvious quantitative response! Especially the English version of V must be produced, and we must not be lazy on this point. !」
Liu Qingshan was moved. The original version did not have an English version, but it still maintained the Chinese style of foreign language version. He was confident that he could copy it.
But this requires making a fuss about singers who are more familiar to Westerners. During the next few minutes of the phone call, he had already thought about who to find to participate in the recording.
These two people were Eminem and Bennington. When they called, Eminem agreed without hesitation and promised to arrive in Kyoto within two days.
