Next Chapter

August 23, 16, Tianhai City, Wufang Film Building, 10:05 a.m., front desk.

"Hello, I want to find your company's film buying department, do you accept independent films?"

Li Yan raised her head and saw a young man who was more than one meter tall and more than eight meters tall, with an ordinary appearance, but with angular facial features, asked with a polite smile, a little nervous and cramped, she quickly made a judgment, this is an honest person.

It should be a crew member or something, right? Thinking about it, her beautiful face still showed a formulaic smile and asked, "Do you have an appointment, sir?"

"No, I came directly. Lin Ti pursed his lips and replied.

"Then you wait a minute, I'll ask. Li Yan smiled politely, then made a phone call, and after a while, she put down the phone and said with a smile: "Please follow me." ”

Lin Ti nodded, tightened the strap of the black backpack, followed Li Yan's footsteps, took the elevator to the fifth floor, turned right, and entered an office area, everyone was busy, and they didn't care about Lin Ti's arrival, and a few steps after coming in, a man about 1.75 meters tall, with short hair standing on his back, and a good-looking man in a suit and leather shoes in his thirties, walked over, took the lead in stretching out his hand and said: "Hello, I am from the film purchasing department of Wufang Company, my name is Fang Mu, may I ask your surname?"

"My surname is Lin, just call me Lin Ti. Lin Ti also stretched out his hand and shook Fang Mu a little uncomfortably.

"Let's go to the conference room. Fang Mu proposed, Lin Ti nodded, and couldn't help but have a good impression of this five-party company, no matter how good this service attitude is, it must be a good company.

After a while, the two came to a small conference room, and Fang Mu poured a glass of water for Lin Ti, and then sat down and smiled enthusiastically: "Mr. Lin, do you have a movie to sell us?"

Lin Ti nodded and said, "Well, it's not for sale, it's for distribution." ”

"Distribution is OK, our company has released a lot of blockbuster movies, such as "Stinger", "Deep Sea Monster", "Invisible" and so on are all distributed by our company, among which the box office of "Deep Sea Monster" is more than one billion, our company's distribution system is very perfect, the proportion charged is relatively low, if you consider selling the copyright then we will also give a reasonable price. Fang Mu said enthusiastically, it is rare for someone to come to the door by himself, in the past, they were the people who bought the film to inquire about the filmed movies everywhere, and then went to the door to buy, negotiate the conditions, people have to shop around to face the competition, now this situation is equivalent to the meat sent to the door, of course, you have to be enthusiastic.

"But we also have to evaluate the quality of the film, if it is normal we can only give you online theater distribution. Fang Mu said with a smile.

Lin Ti nodded to express his understanding, the current film and television industry is quite developed, not as before, now there are two sets of distribution systems in China, the evaluation is average, movies that can't be in theaters will enter online theaters for paid viewing, if the box office results are good after the release period, video sites will also buy and put in VIP or free play, if it's not good...... Of course, it won't buy your copyright.

Only the most high-quality movies will be recommended to enter the theater for box office battles, and compared with online theaters, the competition in physical theaters is fierce.

"Then let's get to the point, may I ask Mr. Lin, what kind of film do you have? How much do you invest? Who is the main actor? Are there any famous people in the director and other behind-the-scenes personnel? Are you the producer of this movie? Do you own the full copyright of this movie? Fang Mu took the pen and notebook, ready to record.

Lin Ti put his hands on the table and held the teacup, and said: "I am the director of this movie, all the copyrights of the movie are in my hands, this is a horror film, the starring role is also me, and the investment is ......"

Lin Ti thought about it for a while and said, "About 10,000 yuan." ”

The cost of the three months of filming adds up...... 10,000 dollars is about the same, right?

Fang Mu suddenly paused with a pen and paper in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at Lin Ti, his face clearly expressing a meaning.

Are you kidding me?

"What the people behind the scenes ......"

"Wait, Mr. Lin. Fang Mu politely interrupted Lin Ti's words, and asked with a smile: "You just said that the investment in this movie is only 10,000 yuan?"

"Yes, yes. Lin Ti nodded, as if he was saying something very natural, but the sense of absurdity that he brought to others was simply destroying other people's three views.

God is so calm.

The corners of Fang Mu's mouth unconsciously pulled up, spread his hands, put down the pen, and asked absurdly: "How can you make a movie for 10,000 yuan? ”

"I took pictures with my phone. Lin Ti looked at him and said, in fact, he understands people's feelings, but what's wrong with 10,000 yuan? What's wrong with mobile phone shooting? The core of the art of film is actually to tell stories on the screen, and now the pixels of mobile phones are still at a level that they couldn't reach decades ago, so why can't they be filmed?

Is it okay for him to tell the story well? For this movie, he is confident.

"Ha......" Fang Mu smiled ridiculously, and then he quickly reached out to cover it and apologized: "I'm sorry Mr. Lin, I couldn't help it, you just said that you took pictures with your mobile phone, right?"

Lin Ti pursed his lips and nodded: "En." ”

"I'm sorry Mr. Lin, then I don't think we can reach a cooperation, mobile movies have never appeared in the market, and our company has no cooperation business in this area, sorry. Fang Mu got up, shook his head and smiled and stretched out his hand.

Lin Ti looked at his hand, got up silently, stretched out his hand, Fang Mu gently accosted Lin Ti and said, "I'm sorry Mr. Lin, I still have something to do, please take care of it." ”

As he spoke, Fang Mu picked up his pen and notebook and turned around to go outside, Lin Ti kept looking at Fang Mu, and when he was about to go out, he suddenly asked, "Mr. Fang, do you want to watch my movie?"

Fang Mu turned around and said with a smile: "No need Mr. Lin, my time is precious, there are other things to deal with, if there is nothing else, you can leave, if you don't leave, I will call the security guard." ”

Lin Ti nodded silently, wiped his hands on his clothes, lowered his head and pursed his lips, and finally didn't say anything, picked up his backpack and went out, Fang Mu looked at his back and smiled dumbly, what about a tantrum with me?

When he went out, Lin Ti was suddenly unaware of the gaze cast at him, and after walking a few steps, he heard someone asking, "How is it? Why did you come out so quickly?

"What was not negotiated, he came to the door with a film taken by a mobile phone, saying that the total investment was only 10,000 yuan, it was really ......" Fang Mu said with a smile, turned his head and glanced at Lin Ti's back, I don't know why, his eyes looked at this back, the mockery in his eyes gradually weakened, and a touch of strangeness rose in his heart.

Why...... He's so calm?

"There's really everyone now. ”

"yes, it's really weird, I want to go crazy for money. ”

“......”
