"Is Director Chu Shun preparing to release it in theaters, or is he going to sell it offline?" Robert first asked about the sales method, and then said: ""With the Movie" is also completed in the later stage, will I come to China or premiere it in Los Angeles?"

Is it me coming, or you coming, this sounds strange, and the imaginative Chu Shun removed the distractions in his mind and replied first: "The premiere is in Los Angeles." ”

The documentary is going to cut American leeks, what is it doing when it premieres in China, as for offline or theater release, Chu Shun fell into thought.

Not to mention the theater release, that is, the model of ordinary movies, as for offline TV station broadcasting and video disc rental, the video rental in the United States is still good, although it is not as good as 16 years ago, but the market is still there. Compared with domestic video disc rental, which is basically pirated, foreign video discs are genuine, but fortunately, there is basically wood in China since 10 years later, because of the rise of Thunderbolt online video.

The only way to get rid of piracy is piracy, which is more cost-free.

Because of its uniqueness, there are really a large number of documentaries that can't go to the cinema, so Robert asked, to put it bluntly, how many people can watch your documentary films? "Migrating Birds" has an investment of more than 40 million yuan, and the box office is only more than 11 million.

If Chu Shun is not mistaken, in fact, the highest-grossing documentary should be the documentary of Michael Jackson, the king of ".IT", which grossed nearly $300 million worldwide without the appearance of the protagonist.

But how many MJs are there? Anyway, there are no Yuandi stars, and other stars also have documentaries at the global box office, but the box office is not more than 100 million, to sum up, because the box office of the documentary is too low, the vast majority of channels and distributors are unwilling to give the number of shows and publicity.

"Two modes together. Chu Shun said: "I'll discuss it with Disney." ”

Hearing this, Robert had nothing to say, and said yes one after another, after all, the more places where documentaries are screened, it will also be of great benefit to him as a director.

It was decided that the premiere would be held in Los Angeles a week later, and after Chu Shun hung up the phone, he directly dialed Douggen's phone, and there were many rings over there but no one answered, I don't know if Dougeen is in the wind again.

"It's better to call Brother Blowi first and get the crew of "Kikujiro's Summer" up. Chu Shun didn't continue to turn his head and find Brother Blow's phone.

made it clear that in cooperation with the Central Propaganda Department, as the chief director, to shoot a propaganda ceremony, three main actors are needed, Kikujiro, Masao and Kikujiro's wife, because it is a celebration, so island actors are preferred.

After the request was finished, Chu Shun simply hung up the phone, because on the way to the call, Dougeen called in.

"My obedient man, I cooperate with the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee to promote the chief director. Brother Blowing said to himself: "Director Chu's status in China is becoming more and more exaggerated. ”

"Generally speaking, the chief director of this kind of activity should be Lu Guozhu, the kind of director who is old and has a high seniority. "Brother Blow, as a mixed bag in the entertainment industry, still knows some problems for so long.

It's as if this year is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the army, and the director who shot the film invited Lu Guozhu's teacher back then, director Xu Jinfei. You must know that Director Xu Jinfei is almost 90 years old this year, and not everyone is Uncle Dongmu.

"It's just that this kind of proposition movie is a bit difficult for Director Chu. "Brother Blowing is quite worried about Chu Shun, he has been working with him for more than seven years, every time he shoots a movie, he has inspiration first, and then a movie, this time he has a theme first and then inspiration, and he completely changes his shooting habits.

Brother Chui thought about it, he believed in the director's creative ability, and said: "Even if you take 10,000 steps back, even if Qingli's movie is not as good as "Paradise Cinema", it doesn't matter. ”

"The actor from the island country, I'm really a little unfamiliar with it, so I'll go directly tomorrow. "Brother Blowing arranged, his current identity can directly talk to the head of the artist of the Genesys Office, which is also the power of the "spokesperson of Chu Shun".

Then Brother Chui called his daughter to ask if he wanted to travel to the island country, but the latter could not take a holiday, and the matter of travel could only be put on hold temporarily.

Back at the hotel, Chu Shun made a phone call back, and then it was connected without two rings.

"Director Chu Shun, I had something to do just now, so I didn't answer the phone, I'm sorry. Douggen apologized first, and then said, "Director Chu Shun called?"

"I made a documentary film called "With the Movie" and wanted Disney to use it as a channel to promote it. Chu Shun also said straight to the point.

He knows too well that it is useless to talk to Douggen about friendship now, and the attitude of the capitalists is to look at the value of use.

"With the Movie, the Hollywood film industry is looking forward to it. Doughon can call the shots in this matter, so he directly gave a definite answer: "How long is the release time chosen by Director Chu Shun?"

"Next Monday, I'm going to have a premiere at the Chinese Grand Theatre in Los Angeles. Chu Shun said.

Douggen thought for a moment before saying, "I'm a little nervous next Monday, but it's no problem, I'll arrange it right away." ”

"If it's convenient, Director Chu Shun gave me Director Robert's phone number. Douggen said: "In terms of details, I have to communicate with the director of the documentary. ”

Of course, Chu Shun agreed, and told Douggen the phone, and the matter could be regarded as settled.

Douggen also really put this matter at ease, and immediately contacted Robert after hanging up the phone, although he has not signed a publicity contract, but things can be prepared first, as he said, a week has to be arranged, and it is really tight.

Robert is still watching the finished film, looking at his own work, along with his assistant director Loki.

"No matter how many times you watch it, Director Chu Shun's shooting method is scary. Robert sighed as he watched, "What do you think, Loki?"

"I think so too. Loki nodded.

"I feel that the director of the documentary should learn this shooting method, and he doesn't need a camera team to go to the field, he can do it alone. Robert said, "How convenient that is, what do you think, Loki." ”

Many times when documentaries are filmed in the wild, good pictures are missed because there are too many people in the crew and it is not easy to coordinate.

Loki nodded: I think so, too. ”

"There is no picture and no truth, I believe that after other directors watch my documentary, they will definitely doubt life, what do you think of Rocky. Robert felt that when he watched it, he had a slight suspicion of life, knowing that he had filmed and edited all these things.

"I think so too. Loki repeated.

Just as Robert spoke again, the phone rang, it was still a strange call, and after connecting, the other party expressed his identity as a Disney executive.

Disney is a behemoth in Hollywood, and the company's executives are not something Robert can afford to offend, so the tone has changed slightly, and it is to discuss the premiere of the movie and the announcement of the next channel.

Then I discussed, made an accurate plan, and then simply hung up the phone.

"When will I have such an influence to get Disney to schedule so many films in minutes. "Robert once again felt the influence of his boss.

Hollywood didn't say anything in advance, Chu Shun posted a Weibo before going to bed, and then went to sleep.

Overlapping words, disgusting heart.

Am I Chu Shun!: [The next movie, promoting the celebration of the 55th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Japan, the script has been written "Kikujiro's Summer", which is a very cheerful and healing movie, soothing everyone's irritable mood, you can look forward to it.) ］

Corruption knows no borders: [Principal Chu, do you think there will be anyone who believes it, the ease in your mouth?] 351,000 likes

Early the next morning, Chu Shun got up to look at it, and then saw the above messages.

"Huh?"

"Why doesn't anyone believe me when I tell the truth?" Chu Shun felt that when everyone thinks that you want a pigeon, but you don't have a pigeon, this situation is also a pigeon. didn't have the heart to continue to explain, he sent the script and plan to Director Wang of the Central Propaganda Department.

Director Wang replied to the approved email two hours later, and the country where the film bureau filed or something directly dealt with it, which is really convenient.

"It's just going through the motions. Chu Shun pondered, he felt that as long as there was no political leaning, it was fine.

In fact, to be honest, this is just Chu Shun, although "Kikujiro's Summer" is a small-cost investment, but it also costs more than 30 million soft sister coins, and the matter of the state to allocate money cannot be small after review.

Or is it because Chu Shun's script, editing, literary direction, shooting, etc. are all done by himself, giving people the impression that it is outrageous, so no one asks questions about the movie.

Then the question arises, the state sponsors the filming funds, so the system from the stock market for the small money money is not repeated?

That's right, repeat, it is equivalent to earning more than 30 million yuan in vain, so that Chu Shun, who is not short of money, is even more frosty.

"The paparazzi of Yuandixing are really not efficient at all. ”

Chu Shun was corrupt, and what should have been investigated was not investigated, but what should not have been investigated was investigated.

For example, he once won the jackpot of three countries, and then he was a financial genius, and these things were not investigated at all.

"It's really an insult to the paparazzi's reputation. Chu Shun sighed.

Chu Shun called Xiao Gao and asked him to help prepare the vehicle, he was going to Teacher Bai's house, and those who are more familiar with the date should know that today is Teacher Bai's birthday.

Although Mr. Bai said that he was in the entertainment industry to make movies, he was also an alternative, and he basically did not appear on the news, perhaps because he was once afraid of being hacked. This year, Mr. Bai has been rated as an associate professor of Beiying.

Normally, from lecturer to associate professor, it is seven to ten years, and there are many hard requirements, but Mr. Bai, as a well-known star, not only did not have preferential treatment in the evaluation of Beiying, but was more severe.

However, because he was rated as an associate professor this year, Mr. Bai took on even fewer dramas, and there was none in the first half of this year. Seriously speaking, Mr. Bai is a homely character, and every year on his birthday, he will cook a table of dishes to invite friends, even if he is in the crew, he will take a day off.

Since entering the entertainment industry, Chu Shun has found that his most social interaction is to attend other people's birthday banquets, and incomplete statistics show that he has also been to more than a dozen birthday banquets in the past seven years.

"The last time I came to Mr. Bai's birthday was when I was filming Sweet Honey, and then in the past few years, although Mr. Bai has been invited, it has basically hit the time. Chu Shun came to Teacher Bai's house.

I found that a few years have passed, and Chushun has bought a five-star hotel, but Mr. Bai has not moved, and it is still that warm little apartment.

The friends invited for birthdays are basically the same, Rui Ying, Yu Min, Su Jing, Yang Zhige, and the best friends who have been fattened.

"Director Chu hasn't seen him for a long time, and to be honest, "Kikujiro's Summer" is not a dead male protagonist. Su Jing was also familiar with greetings.

Su Jing's name doesn't seem familiar, but she is actually the person who cooperated with Chu Shun in "Let the Bullets Fly", playing the wife of the county magistrate, and once won the third runner-up of Miss Universe.

"How is it possible, Kikujiro is very relaxed. Chu Shun told the truth.

"Uh-huh, I believe, is depressed. Su Jing's expression seemed to say, I believe in your evil.

"Principal Chu, I'm Yang Zhige, and I grew up watching Principal Chu's movies. Yang Zhige said hello, she was the youngest present, only twenty-four years old, a friend that Mr. Bai met during filming last year, and she was also a well-known little flower in the past two years.

"You say that, I seem to be very old, don't be like this, I'm still a child. Chu Shun said.

Twenty-four-year-old Yang Zhige watched "Kill Bill" when she was seventeen years old, and it makes sense to say that she grew up watching Chu Shun's movies.

"Is Sister Mao's film scheduling going well?" Chu Shun asked Yu Min.

Yu Min can be said to be a second-tier star in Hollywood at present, relying on his desperate shooting methods, he mixed well in Hollywood, and won the Saturn Award for Best Actress last year.

"It went well, except for the last hand fracture, basically there were no injuries. Yu Min replied.

"It smells so good. Rui Ying stared at the kitchen wholeheartedly, compared to a few years ago, the biggest change was Rui Ying, as the goddess of literature and art on the Internet, she has surpassed Yu Min to become the favorite of straight men.

Not only in terms of fame, but also in the past few years of tempering of acting skills, the queen of the Sundance International Film Festival, and the queen of the Golden Rooster Award, the gold content is good, but even so, it can't change the essence of foodie at all.

Teacher Bai is a relatively homely person, her statement is friends, a few are enough, and you can't use more than that, the most important thing is that Teacher Bai's cooking skills are really good, from girlfriends, to Rui Ying, to Chu Shun, all of them have been conquered, even Yu Min, who has no pursuit of food, likes it.

About an hour later, Mr. Bai, who had prepared the ingredients in advance, began to serve the dishes, and a lot of delicacies were served, and no one was polite, after Mr. Bai, the host, was served, and they all began.

"Whoever marries Teacher Bai is definitely super happy, it's really delicious. "Why can Rui Ying eat without paying attention to her image at all?

"Speaking of which, I'm curious about another thing, how do you maintain it. Su Jing asked.

Yang Zhige also pricked up her ears, to be precise, Teacher Bai was about ten years older than her, but she looked really young, and she felt like two sisters when she walked on the street...... It is possible that passers-by will still think that Teacher Bai is her sister.

Teacher Bai is the same age as Yu Min, but I can't see it at all, Yu Min is also very good as a star.

"Drink plenty of water to boost your metabolism. Teacher Bai said: "Then there is a statistic on the food intake every day. ”

A few years have passed, and Chu Shun has seen a familiar way of eating again, putting aside vegetarian dishes, meat dishes and rice, and taking a bite of vegetarian vegetables and a mouthful of rice.

Rui Ying looked at it, she felt that her life was over, and it was impossible to do it in food.

"By the way, Sister Cat, I have a plan to shoot a female action movie. Chu Shun suddenly spoke in the middle of eating.

The words that were originally chatting, all in the middle, looked at Chu Shun.

Yu Min looked at Chu Shun suspiciously, shooting action movies according to Chu Shun's current status, a little ......

"I feel that the market for action movies is still very large, especially for female agents. Chu Shun said.

Female agent action movie, Yu Min asked suspiciously: "007 is like this?"

"James Bond is all over the world, but he is not called an agent, he is too high-profile. Chu Shun said: "The agent should be more low-key and calm. ”

"If the agent is low-key, then will there be a highlight of the agent action movie?" Yu Min asked after thinking about it.

The 007 series is also the most famous spy movie series of Meta Earth, Sean Connery and Roger Moore both exist, and the remaining actors who play Bond are different from the earth, but they are also the template for global spy films, accompanied by beautiful women, luxury cars and wine, and big scenes and big investments

"Low-key agents are definitely more interesting. Chu Shun nodded, and then said: "There are a lot of ideas at present, otherwise it will be a zombie movie series." ”

"Zombie movies?" Rui Ying said, "Most zombie movies show disaster themes. ”

"I think the theme of zombie movies may be very interesting, if Director Chu shoots, it must be good, you imagine, there are a lot of games with this theme, but there are very few famous movies, only "Zombie Empire", the market is very large. Teacher Bai explained.

Yuandixing does not have "I Am a Legend", "Resident Evil", "Dawn of the Living Dead", the most famous is "Zombie Empire", which tells the story of after the Third World War, radiation caused genetic mutation, and a generation became zombies, and soon Yuandixing was occupied by zombies, it is more like a disaster movie, anti-war theme.

"If I am inspired, I write a script and I can work together again. Chu Shun said to Min that what he thought in his heart was that only commercial films could refresh the box office record, otherwise what would the small goal do?

Yu Min nodded and didn't speak, this was Chu Shun helping her, otherwise Chu Shun would have no reason to come to shoot an action movie.

The birthday banquet was very pleasant, and after eating, they went back to their respective homes, and Chu Shun flew to Los Angeles the next day for the release of the documentary.
