For those new fields, Jing Jian has always had a strong curiosity. Especially Hollywood, the almost deified movie mecca, Jing Jian certainly wants to know a little bit about it. However, in his previous life, except for those Hollywood blockbusters and small movies, he could be said to know nothing about the film industry. Therefore, Jing Jian is also quite curious about the "independent films" mentioned by Andrew.

And Andrew also gave a detailed introduction to some of the situation in the American film industry, and it is clear that he is an insider. In fact, the concept of independent film is quite simple, and other films outside of the eight major film studios in Hollywood can be collectively called independent films.

Of course, independent film production companies are also first, second and third-rate. For example, the new line that later produced the "Lord of the Rings" series, and Miramax of the Harvey brothers, who were nicknamed Oscar professionals, are all excellent independent film studios that can challenge mainstream film studios.

As for Seed Entertainment, the original momentum was from the third rate to the second rate, and then it was a street movie that returned to its original shape. As for now, I don't want to mention it. However, in Hollywood, I don't know how many companies are born or bankrupt every year, and the original Seed Entertainment can still produce five movies independently?

Of course, this is talking about independent films that are still quite mainstream. There are even more non-mainstream of all kinds. Like those who specialize in the art film market, those who specialize in various film festivals, those who specialize in creativity, horror films, and suspense films. Experimental Piece ...... , and even the local tyrants who were fooled and dizzy invested inexplicably. Anyway, it's just one word - good and bad!

By the time he was introduced here, Jing Jian had already understood that he should be classified as a dizzy local tyrant. And Andrew's resignation, whether it's true or not, he wants to fool himself here.

Even Jing Jian doesn't know how to do it, and he also understands how bad the movie made with $200,000 is. Even if it's a good movie, it still needs publicity. Some business rules are the same, such as fast-moving consumer goods such as movies, if you don't spend one or two million dollars on publicity, then wait to hit the streets!

In fact, after getting the company, Jing Jian also conducted some research, in the final analysis, the original seed entertainment suffered from the lack of publicity fees, the first four are almost around 100,000 US dollars, and the last one has increased to 300,000, but it is less than one-tenth of the production cost of the film. In fact, as long as the publicity fee is about doubled, Jing Jian believes that the final box office will definitely be more than doubled. Not to mention, if the box office can reach a certain height, it may also be released outside of North America. The cost of buying out videotapes will also be greatly increased. I don't mention the surrounding area here. Because these movies definitely have no peripheral possibilities.

However, now, Jing Jian will definitely not squander one or two million to gamble on his luck. After a moment's consideration: "Andrew, before I came, I thought about putting you in charge of the film company. But we're sorry, but you're the only one in the company. Of course, the treatment will be the manager of the film company. The company has no plans to make a film for at least a year, and to be honest, even if it does, the total investment, including publicity costs, will exceed $5 million. If you want to quit your job, then I wish you all the best. But I still hope you think again. "After all, in the film branch, it is better to have someone to stay.

"Then I...... Think about it!" Andrew reluctantly agreed.

......

Saying goodbye to Andrew, Jing Jian walked out of the office. Seed Entertainment is empty, it's a music branch, and there are not many people left. It just so happened that a middle-aged Chinese man was passing by, and Jing Jian hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Teacher Cheng, hello!"

"Hello, Boss Jing. The man named Cheng Qinglun greeted him repeatedly, and even bowed his head a little.

"Teacher Cheng, call me Xiaojian! You're welcome, I'm familiar with Haiyan. ”

"That'...... Let's call you Xiaojing!"

"It's done!"

Cheng Qinglun was originally the principal pianist of the Beijing Orchestra and a composer, with deep musical attainments. then tried his best to come to the United States, and he was reduced to working as a black worker in a black factory, and he got rid of the prototype character of Wang Qiming in "Beijing People in New York". After Cao Haiyan was expelled, Cheng Qinglun was implicated, and he was also ruthlessly fired by the "one-hearted" Delong, and then he could only do odd jobs in fast food restaurants. Knowing this, Cao Haiyan carefully asked Jing Jian, hoping that Jing Jian could help. Jing Jian thought about it, anyway, the music branch was also a professional counterpart, so he arranged Cheng Qinglun into it.

"Teacher Cheng, are you still used to doing it here?" Jing Jian saluted a cigarette.

Cheng Qinglun waved his hand and said no: "If you can touch the instrument, what is not satisfied?" Cheng Qinglun was full of emotion, "Even what I am good at is classical, and I am familiar with the nationality." The popular piece in the United States really has to be explored a lot. In the past few days, I have come up with a dozen tunes, just to get Mr. Billy to listen to them, hoping that he can give him an opinion. ”

"Huh?" Jing Jian thought to himself, is it quite prolific? Jing Jian didn't know that when Cheng Qinglun was working in the dark, he regarded composing music as some kind of pastime in order to be bored with his playing style. Of course, there are very few complete tracks, mostly some fragments. So Jing Jian smiled and asked, "What? Does the company want a new song?"

"yes, I heard that there is going to be a record for that elf bird singing group. ”

"Oh?" was a surprise. Billy was worthy of the $400,000 he injected and really got to work.

At this moment, when he heard of Jing Jian's arrival, Billy also led the ten boys and girls and three other company employees to come: "Hello boss." "Hello, Mr. Bramble. ”......

"It didn't affect you, did it?" Jing Jian smiled and shook hands one by one.

"I'm getting ready to rest. Billy laughed.

Jing Jian secretly observed the Lumina and found that she was not like other boys and girls, who were in a hurry to behave in front of him. After thinking about it, I decided to say a few words to cheer up these boys and girls: "Hello everyone. I don't want to hide anything, we at Seed Entertainment are a small company now, and our strength is very limited. But I want to tell you that our company will not only produce records for your elf bird groups, but also create suitable songs according to the characteristics of each person, and release a record for each of you. It's the kind that is very formal, distributed throughout North America, and heavily promoted. Of course, there will always be a priority, but the opportunity is right in front of you, and I hope you will continue to work hard. ”

A thousand words are not as good as the stimulation of practical interests. However, as soon as they heard this, everyone present was surprised, and suddenly burst into cheers......
