Duan Xiaochen happily scooped the poplar nectar and sent it to his sexy red lips to savor it.

However, after only a few bites, she used great restraint to push the bowl of poplar branch nectar in front of Du Caige, expressing her resolute refusal.

Du Caige didn't persuade her, and silently scooped and ate.

The management personnel looked at this scene, both surprised and thoughtful.

It seems that the rumors are not groundless.

If it weren't for the intimacy to a certain extent, how could Duan Tianhou give his leftovers to Du Dong to eat!

Those who will do this are either relatives or boyfriends and girlfriends.

This is impossible for ordinary friends.

But they didn't say anything.

Although the company is start-up, the distinction between superiors and subordinates is not so obvious. And Duan Xiaochen and Du Caige are not the kind of people who have a big shelf.

But they are experienced professionals who know when to take a gesture.

After seeing a clue, they didn't squint at this time, and concentrated on eliminating the dessert in front of them.

"Brother, is the new distribution system really so important?"

"Yes, it's very important. ”

"You can communicate with me first," Duan Xiaochen said coquettishly, "People oppose and support first, and their attitude turns three hundred and sixty degrees, how faceless." ”

"I didn't know it would be discussed. ”

"It's all Chu Jixiang's fault for a surprise attack. Duan Xiaochen said angrily.

"Well, it's all his fault. Du Caige echoed. Dead friends don't die in the poor way.

After a few idle words, Duan Xiaochen talked about business.

"We want to sign a few potential new directors and train them to become descendants. Brother, haven't you been paying attention to the things in this circle? ”

The director of the production department and the deputy director in charge of film and television immediately lowered their heads, a little slanderous.

Such a professional thing, you go and ask Du Dong, it's too much!

Du Dong is very powerful, but he is in the music industry.

You ask him about the film industry, isn't this asking about Yu Blind?

Unreliable, unreliable!

And Du Caige thought about it and gave a few names, all of which were very interesting rookie directors he found when he was scanning films.

Including Yu Shan, who won the same award as him in that competition.

Hearing these names, the deputy director of film and television showed surprise.

Because of these people, he has also heard of them, and they are indeed highly rated newcomers in the circle.

"Du Dong is very discerning, and we are also paying attention to these directors. However, they have already been watched by several large companies, and we have no advantage in competition," Xu Liang, deputy director of film and television, interjected, "and most directors are not willing to sign an agency contract to tie themselves down." ”

Du Caige said in a flat tone: "Give it a try, give it a try." For some new directors, the most important thing is the opportunity to direct independently, and it is okay to give up some freedom for this. ”

Xu Liang was taken aback and hesitated: "Director Du, are you going to promise them to direct a few movies independently as a condition for signing a contract? This can indeed improve the possibility of signing a contract, but ...... Isn't it too risky?"

Duan Xiaochen looked at Du Caige with a smile, as if he was full of confidence, but he didn't seem to care at all.

As long as Du Caige said what she wanted to do, even if it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, she would dare to break through.

Du Caige pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "The director is going to make movies." You can agree to invest in them to make a few movies, such as 5 films in 5 years, with an investment of no less than 5 million yuan for each film, and use such conditions to attract them to join. ”

"First, the investment amount will not be too large, and we will attract others to invest together to diversify the risk. We can invest independently for less than 5 million, and for a movie with an investment of 10 million, we will invest 3 million to 5 million ourselves. ”

"Second, they are all level, and I believe they can make good commercial films. ”

"Third, we don't give them the right to cut the final cut, and we will check it ourselves. So in this way, the risk is actually within the controllable range. ”

Xu Liang listened, didn't say that he was convinced, at least he couldn't find anything wrong on the surface, nodded and stopped talking.

Ouyang Lihai, director of the creative and production department, took over the conversation: "Okay, let's follow up and try to sign two or three to train the company's descendants." ”

Du Caige's fingers unconsciously knocked on the table: "Expensive, not much." Among this group of directors, they focus on Shan and must win him. For the rest, try to fight for it, if you can't do it, there is no need to force it. ”

Ouyang Lihai was stunned, he didn't expect Du Caige to attach so much importance to this Yu Shan.

Duan Xiaochen was also a little surprised: "Yu Shan is a female director, how old is she, is she beautiful?"

Du Caige touched his eyebrows helplessly.

Ouyang Lihai coughed and explained: "Director Yu Shan is male, 29 years old, with a master's degree from the Beiying Department of Directing, with a rough appearance, and likes large bowls of wine and meat. ”

Duan Xiaochen was relieved.

She added: "Actually, I have also contacted several directors through personal relationships, and some of them are not excluded from joining us. Meng Zhaolong, brother, do you know each other?"

Du Caige nodded: "I've seen his movies, and he's a good director." I remember that he was only in his 30s, and although he was not the most famous batch in the new generation, he had solid basic skills. ”

He remembered that this Meng Zhaolong was good at capturing the feelings of the characters, and was good at using colors to set off, which had a bit of the feeling of Lao Mouzi when he was young, but it seemed to be more commercial than the movies made by Lao Mouzi.

It's just that Meng Zhaolong has never made a big investment, and he has always made small fights, and I don't know if he can control a big production.

I'm not sure if this person can make a big investment business masterpiece.

"He's just not very lucky, he always can't get a good script, can't attract big investment, and has been making some tepid low-budget movies and TV series. If you are lucky enough to encounter a few good scripts and attract investment, you may not be able to catch fire. Would he like to join?"

Duan Xiaochen smiled brightly: "It's up to you." ”

"Look at me?"

Duan Xiaochen nodded: "He's your fan." ”

Du Caige raised his eyebrows, a little stunned, and looked a little crying and laughing.

"He's a fan of your books," Duan explained, "When I talked to him on the phone, he said that he had ordered all your books and bought all the physical books." ”

"That's right. ”

"He is willing to join us, in principle, he is willing to sign an agency contract for 4 years and 4 films, but he demands: one of them must be a big movie "Zhu Xian", and he also wants to make a "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", you can only choose one of the volumes to shoot. ”

She looked at Du Caige with a pair of beautiful eyes.

She knew that Du Caige actually wanted to direct "Zhu Xian" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" herself.

Du Caige weighed it, nodded and said, "I'm okay here." ”

Du Caige really wants to direct "Zhu Xian" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" himself.

But there are so many films he wants to direct.

He also wants to direct "The Legend of Sword and Fairy". I also want to direct "The Romance of the Dragon and Snake" and shoot the Guoshuliu Cinematic Universe and the Flood Stream Cinematic Universe.

He also wants to remake "The Matrix", "Inception", "Little Wrecking Ball" and "Three-Body Problem", and reinterpret such classic science fiction movies from his point of view.

Isn't there a saying that "no science fiction, no director".

How can you have the energy to shoot every part?

So definitely to let some out.

If this Meng Zhaolong is willing to sign an agency contract with the company, it would be good to hand over "Zhu Xian" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" to him.

But the ugly words are ahead, first of all, he has to make two commercial films to prove himself. I don't ask for a high ROI, and if I can make a small profit, I will be qualified. IPs like "Zhu Xian" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" are not easy to create, and they cannot be entrusted to non-people. ”

"We'll negotiate with him and put that into the contract. Ouyang Lihai said with a businesslike attitude.

"In addition, we still have to find a way to bring in one or two big directors, and then a few big companies to make big-budget films, which is the fastest way to make a company famous. Xu Liang proposed.

Signing new directors and producing a large number of low-budget films for these new directors to practice is more for the future, and also to build and train their own distribution system.

And big production is indeed the only way to establish the company's position.

There is nothing wrong with Xu Liang's statement.

The young man in his thirties looked at the two executive directors with expectant eyes.

As an entertainment company focusing on content production.

Once production starts, they're the creative and production department with the most power.

Especially if you start making a movie, invest three or five billion yuan in a big production.

At that time, a large amount of funds will flow from their hands, and all kinds of beauties and students will come to them to worship the pier.

Although they don't directly control the crew, if Dream Mutual Entertainment shoots a big production, it's still no problem for the director of the production department and the deputy director of film and television to name a producer, assistant producer, or the like.

If you meet a director with a softer personality, they can even justifiably intervene in all aspects of casting, budgeting, prop purchase, hotel accommodation, etc.

Even if they have clean hands and feet and don't make money from it, they can easily mix up their qualifications, get familiar with big stars and big directors, and untact a few small supporting roles by the way.

Therefore, the production department is actually very hopeful that the company can start a big production immediately.

Du Caige pondered for a moment and said, "You can contact you, but it's still the same sentence, don't force it." Large-scale production is actually a kind of commercial operation, and we can only be cautious in this regard, feeling the stones to cross the river. ”

"My personal opinion is that I will wait for Rouzhi Investment to take the lead, join forces with Jiutian Media, Donglai Entertainment, etc. to invest, invite big directors, and make big productions. ”

"Of course, if there is the right opportunity, we can also take the lead in doing it. ”

Duan Xiaochen pursed his lips, a sly smile flashed in his eyes, "There is a suitable opportunity in front of you." ”

"What chance?"

"Shu Yihuan. ”

"He?" Du Caige was a little surprised.

There are many big directors who have a brand on them.

But there are also some big directors who seem to be very independent since their debut. It's okay to make a film for this, and it's okay to make a film for that.

Because there is enough strength and confidence, you can live a nourishing life without being attached to any large company.

Shu Yihuan is like this.

He has his own studio and has not signed an agency contract with any major company since his debut.

This great director is good at action movies and martial arts films, and Du Caige also went to the cinema with Liu Zifei to watch his movies.
