Chapter 536: The Troubles of Happiness
There is no such thing as an impermeable wall.
Soon after, the news that Qinghong Culture planned to shoot three movies this year immediately spread throughout the industry. Interested people checked again, and immediately found the information of the three movies on the record of the Film Bureau.
It's hard to say anything else, but I saw that Zhou Mu's name was hung on the screenwriter's column. At such an instant, investors from all walks of life immediately went towards Qinghong culture.
Even if Zhou Mu didn't want to "create a god", he ignored one point, how could Luo Tianmu ever want to become a "god" back then.
Sometimes, there are some things that can be blocked without refusing or avoiding them.
Yang Hong knows this well. The success of "Super Body 2", Yu Nian, Cui Ji and others naturally shared a great reputation.
Yu Nian has become a great director of commercial films in the eyes of the world.
But the industry sees it more clearly.
Yes.
The popularity of "Super Body 2", Yu Nian must have taken the main credit.
After all, to make a blockbuster, the director's control is definitely the key.
However, it is irreplaceable to say that residual thoughts cannot be replaced......
Then no one will believe it.
Because in the industry, directors with the same level and strength as Yu Nian, although they are relatively rare, are not none.
Tang Yuan and Mo Huaixuan won't talk about it.
Even the director who filmed "Galactic Gaiden".
Before that, it was not well known. So after the filming of the film was completed, his name was not mentioned much when it was promoted.
But insiders watched it and knew that the movie was remarkable.
The reason why it lost to "Super Body 2" was because "Super Body 2" was better, not because "Galaxy Gaiden" was poorly filmed.
At the very least, after "Galactic Gaiden", everyone remembered a name.
Ling Qianwen!
This is definitely the biggest surprise of the director industry this year.
Because before "Galactic Gaiden", he had never made a movie at all. Don't talk about feature films, not even short films.
"Galaxy Gaiden" is Ling Qianwen's debut work.
If not, the other party's background is innocent and there is a context to escape, I am afraid that some people wonder if he is Luo Tianmu's illegitimate son. That's why I was so lucky, I took over the "Galaxy Gaiden" project as soon as I entered the industry and became a director.
But everyone was surprised, mainly because of his experience, which was so legendary.
According to the information obtained by the reporter's investigation.
Ling Qianwen graduated from a professional class only last year.
After graduating, he chose to join Galaxy and work in the film and television production department. After only working for half a year, he was selected by Luo Tianmu and designated him to direct "Galaxy Gaiden".
Think about it, whether it's Yu Nian, Mo Huaixuan, or Tang Yuan. In order to wait for this opportunity to direct a movie? I don't know how many years it took to wait.
But this kind of great opportunity to ascend to the sky in one step? Ling Qianwen is at his fingertips.
When he took over the crew, he must have been questioned.
But the Galactic Empire protected him very well, and even the producer Yan Anqing was on his side to ensure the smooth operation of the crew.
Of course, Ling Qianwen did not live up to the trust of the galaxy, and the film he shot was recognized by the company and arranged for its release......
As a result, the total box office of "Galaxy Gaiden" has reached 5 billion.
Of course, that's a total of both domestic and foreign numbers.
As far as the Gaiden movie is concerned, having such a box office income is already a successful accomplishment of the Galactic Empire's intended goal.
Without Galaxy 2, everything would be perfect......
In any case, the industry also praises Ling Qianwen a lot. There may be a shadow of the trolls touted by the navy? But to be fair, giving him a few years of experience may not be worse than Yu Nian.
Therefore, for Yu Nian, the director of commercial films, some people are naturally unconvinced. They feel that if they were to direct "Super Body 2" by themselves, the results would be the same.
Because the script and special effects of this movie are so exciting.
Not to mention the special effects, the top level in the industry, but it can also be replicated.
Only the script.
Or rather, the creativity in the script, this is absolutely groundbreaking, amazing, amazing creativity.
It seems to have been said that success is 99% perspiration plus 1% inspiration.
1% of them are inspired, and 99% of them are sweated.
This makes a lot of sense, who said that?
Oh, Zhou Mu.
A name that can't be avoided.
There is no need for the crew to emphasize the publicity, many people in the industry know it. The idea of the super body series comes from Zhou Mu.
It can be said that he is the founder of the success of this series.
Thinking about it again, since Zhou Mu's debut, the movies he has participated in as the main creator have basically never failed. Then the three movies hanging under his name are undoubtedly full of expectations.
Although everyone looks at the movie synopsis, they know that this is definitely not a superbody series.
But if you can't eat meat, don't you want to drink soup?
Anyway, in the industry, all large and small companies that have the strength, connections, and opportunities to tie up with Qinghong culture have come to the door.
In this regard, Yang Hong did not refuse to come, and welcomed visitors from all over the world with a smile.
Of course, there will be absolutely no promises, just that the project has only been approved by the project, and it is still in preparation, and the specific situation is to be determined.
Everyone knows that this is a prevarication. However, the other party did not refuse on the spot, but was releasing some signals.
This is the process for screening co-op partners.
Anyone who understands understands.
Everyone laughed tacitly.
At the capital level, Yang Hong is naturally dominant.
In addition, in the entertainment industry, because of this incident, it has caused a lot of waves. Many artists and stars know about the three movies.
Whether it is a male artist or a female artist, they immediately realize that this is an opportunity.
After all, there are only a few artists signed by Qinghong Culture.
Three movies, even if they are all starring, but how to distribute the remaining male and female second, important supporting roles and the like.
Matching people does not mean that they cannot be popular.
There was Zhou Mu before, and he became popular in "Urban Legends". Later, there was Gu Debai, who relied on the role of the villain in "Super Body 2" to become the first line.
Real examples, let everyone know.
As long as it can be fired, it doesn't matter if it is worthy or not.
Except for the one brother and one sister that those large companies focus on cultivating, they don't worry about resources, so they can naturally not be moved. The rest, even if they are first-line artists, can't help but think about whether to "self-recommend".
After all, Zhou Mu's drama is particularly popular.
Even if it is a small supporting role, it can be brilliant, sucking, and popular.
It's not a flattery, it's something tangible.
So when the first-line artists are hesitating, the resumes of the second- and third-tier stars are already like snowflakes, coming one after another.
"Everyone is so welcoming. ”
Several employees who are responsible for processing resumes suddenly feel that they are feasting their eyes. Of course, it doesn't mean that the resume of the little star contains "private goods".
After all, in recent years, the reputation of Qinghong culture, or word of mouth, has also been quite famous in the industry. The industry knows in its heart that some unspoken rules that can't be put on the table won't work here in Qinghong Culture, and there is no need to waste effort.
So the ones sent over are all normal resumes. However, no matter how normal the resume is, it will definitely highlight its own advantages.
Who doesn't know how to play up their strengths and avoid their weaknesses.
The face is good-looking, the legs are long, the waist is thin, the fierceness is large, and the palms are beautiful......
But where there are strengths, they will naturally be exposed. So, naturally, it is a dazzling and charming eye, which is pleasing to the eye.
However, a few employees have not forgotten their business. While appreciating, I also categorized and arranged my resume and included it in the file.
"Hey, I don't understand why the director is making us go through this effort. ”
An employee complained, "Who doesn't know, whether it's Director Yu Nian or Director Zhou Mu, they are too lazy to look at this kind of file, we are destined to work in vain." ”
"They don't look at it, that's their business. The employee next to him said wisely: "Whether we do it or not is a performance problem." ”
“......”
The complaining employee was speechless.
Because this is the truth.
If you don't work, you still want to have performance, and you dream.
After working for most of the day, the resume was almost classified, and an employee stretched his waist, listened to the sound of bones, and said casually: "But then again, many of them are famous artists, I didn't expect them to also submit resumes." ”
"It shows that our company is becoming more and more prosperous. The companion smiled and said: "When the company is listed, we will be a veritable big company with cards." ”
The news that Qinghong Culture is going to go public is nothing new in the company's content.
Yang Hong had a conversation with the middle and senior management, and under their transfer, no matter how sluggish the ordinary employees were, they also noticed some signs. The expansion some time ago, as well as the three films to be filmed this year, are actually obvious signals.
If it weren't for the preparation for the listing, it would not have been such a big move.
The company went public, which is naturally good news for their old employees. As long as the work is in place, there will definitely be a lot of money for performance.
If the performance is outstanding, equity incentives or something, you can also hope for it.
So the company is full of energy. While a few people were excitedly exchanging, the supervisor walked in, "Is the file ready?"
"Alright. An employee quickly replied.
Fortunately, I was not lazy, otherwise I would have been scolded by the supervisor.
The next second, he was even more happy. Because the supervisor said: "Print out a copy and send it to the artist center for Director Zhou to see." ”
"Huh?"
Several people were stunned.
Director Zhou of the Artist Center is naturally Zhou Mu.
There must be no one else.
"Why, it didn't work?" the director frowned.
"No, no, no, it's done, and it will be ready to print right away. ”
An employee reacted and hurriedly operated. For a moment, the printer smacked softly, slowly spitting out pages and pages of color pictures.
"Hmm. ”
The director's face softened, "Hurry up and get it ready and send it over." ”
"Yes!"
While the employees nodded, they couldn't help but wonder, "Director, it's strange, how could Director Zhou be interested in these files?"
"Can you inquire about this?"
The supervisor reprimanded, and only after the employee was sincerely scared did he explain to himself, "Maybe I want to see what good seedlings are in the resume......
Several employees glanced at each other and nodded slightly.
They also feel that this may be the truth.
After all, the artist center is so empty, together with Xu Qinglime and Zhou Mu himself, plus Ye Zijin and Gu Debai, there are only four artists. Any listed company that doesn't raise more than a dozen artists is embarrassed to say hello to people.
However, with Yang Hong's temperament and likes to cultivate artists by himself, then the company will definitely not sign those artists who have become famous.
Several employees didn't know about Zhou Mu's "digging corners". Therefore, it stands to reason that the next stage of the company is to look for good seedlings.
It's like back then, when the company was founded. Yang Hong fell in love with Zhou Mu among tens of millions of people and decided to sign a contract with him. What Zhou Mu has to do now is probably to pick out a few of the resumes in a bunch of resumes, and he thinks that people who can be popular sign a contract.
It's a reincarnation......
Several employees sighed that Mali printed out the resume, fixed it in folders, and then shipped it to the artist center together.
Well, it's luck.
Anyway, Zhou Mu saw two or three stacked trucks and mountains of folders, and he was also taken aback, and said in surprise: "So many." ”
"Director Zhou, this is the result of screening. ”
One employee explained, "Some of them were purely lucky, and we didn't even fill in the complete resume, and we eliminated them directly." ”
"Oh. ”
Zhou Mu nodded, not questioning the employee's decision.
Although most of the time, resumes don't do much. But a person who doesn't even fill in his resume seriously shows that he is also perfunctory.
He perfunctory himself first, so don't blame others for perfunctory him.
Zhou Mu looked through it and found that the resume had been classified.
There are even searches, catalogs,
Zhou Mu was very satisfied, "Okay, you have worked hard. ”
"No, no, little things. Several employees, never mentioning that they were busy with back pain, and left the artist center briskly under the gift of Zhou Mu.
Zhou Mu returned to the office, and saw Cui Ji flipping through a few resumes, looking with relish, "Wow, this is good, white! This is better, warp!"
"Yo, it's so moist and tender. ”
This shouting sound made Zhou Mu roll his eyes, "Restrain a little, let others hear, I still think this is a wolf's den." ”
"Hey, hey!"
Cui Ji smiled and closed the folder, "I'm casting, reviewing ...... with an artistic eye"
"Huh!"
Zhou Mu gave a disdainful smile, and then asked, "Have you decided whether you want to shoot a script?"
Yes.
They decided that among the three scripts, there was a script and handed over to Cui Ji to be in charge of it, and asked him to try to be a director and use it to practice.
If outsiders know that they are "spoiling" good things like this, they will definitely beat their chests and scold the sky for having no eyes and the way of heaven is unfair.
At the mention of this, Cui Ji looked entangled.
"What, haven't thought about it yet?"
Zhou Mu said angrily: "Otherwise, you will draw lots." ”
“......”
Cui Ji glared angrily, "This is my debut, how can I be such a child's play." ”
Zhou Mu asked rhetorically, "Then how long do you want to be entangled?"
Cui Ji was also irritable, and simply asked: "Tell me, among the three scripts, which script is the best, and after it is made into a movie, it has the highest box office?"
Zhou Mu smiled, "How do I know about this kind of thing." ”
Even if there is a finished film as a reference, the results of different worlds, different directors, different actors, and different schedules are definitely different.
But he was sure that the film would not fail that is. Making money can definitely make money, it's nothing more than a question of how much you make.
"Hey. ”
Cui Ji sighed and said in distress: "That's why I'm entangled." ”
He never imagined that one day, he would fall into such happy troubles.
