439 PR Cannes Film Festival

After greeting Zhang Ming, Wei Xun did not detour.

He invited the other party to sit down and said with a smile: "My headhunter told me that Mr. Zhang has recently had the idea of changing places. ”

"To be precise, it was Mr. Wei that your headhunter found me. ”

This kind of 'poaching' contact is actually more like a kind of negotiation, and the fight is who can calm down better. So Zhang Ming also smiled: "I also felt a little confused when I came, the medal is a film and television media company, and I don't seem to have any place here to help Mr. Wei." ”

Mr. Zhang is 32 years old this year, and he has already sat in the position of executive vice president of online media in Honggao. ”

Regarding Zhang Ming's pretense of confusion, Wei Xun said pointedly: "But I have been staying in Honggao, judging from Mr. Zhang's qualifications and age, I may not be able to move my position in the next ten years." ”

Zhang Ming's face stiffened when he heard this.

He is the executive vice president of online media, which is actually very high, but there are at least five or six steps to climb up to the real decision-making level. Honggao's total assets exceed one trillion yuan, the internal management structure is huge and the audit mechanism is strict.

And there are not many positions in the grand heights, just like a radish and a pit, and before you want to enter a pit, you have to work hard to pull out the radish inside.

Zhang Ming is very young and has strength, and when he found that he couldn't walk, he began to be anxious.

He didn't want to waste his golden time here.

"Even if you can't move for the time being, but IMHO, this is Honggao. Zhang Ming adjusted his thoughts and said: "Take your listed company Panda stock as an example, the market value of 100 billion yuan cannot be compared with Honggao." ”

"There really can't be compared to this, but I think you must have heard that Gu Changming, the president of Panda Ticketing, was cultivated by me. The CEO of Panda Ticketing, or the executive vice president of Honggao's online media, which one does Mr. Zhang think is more satisfying?"

Wei Xun smiled: "And Changming is now in charge of his own house, I will never interfere with him." ”

I have to say that Wei Xun's ability to persuade people is very strong, at least Zhang Ming was a little moved by what he said. But just for a moment, he shook his head: "It's a pity, Medal Media doesn't have a place for me to stay, and Gu Changming is here to buy tickets for Panda." ”

"It's not a pity at all, because I want to give the self-media industry a try, develop a software called 'Toutiao', abandon the old way of traditional media portals, and take the new media operation model. Wei Xun said: "In my opinion, the future of the Internet is the era of self-media. ”

As he spoke, he threw a brief plan to Zhang Ming.

The era of self-media?

Zhang Ming looked at the plan book in front of him, did not turn it over, but hesitated: "Mr. Wei is not afraid that I will ...... after reading it."

Theft and plagiarism of business plans are not uncommon in the commercial field.

"Mr. Zhang reads it at will, because after reading this plan, you will definitely stay. Wei Xun motioned for him to open the file and said with a smile: "And I initially plan to invest one billion, and I will gradually increase the investment in the future. ”

In other words, no money is a pile of waste paper.

Preliminary plan of 1 billion?

Hearing this investment amount, Zhang Ming's face became more serious. However, when he opened the proposal, the more he looked at it, his eyes widened, and the whole person fell into a shock.

Toutiao's 'traffic harvesting' plan.

Breed short videos from headlines.

Short video overtaking long video.

This proposal is definitely a genius idea, it has a complete plan and details to promote the filling, as if there is a software called 'Toutiao' that has really gone through such a road!

If you follow this plan, once you succeed, then even if Toutiao can't reach the height of Jutong and Honggao, it will definitely not be too far behind!

"Mr. Wei...... This ......"

Zhang Ming looked at half of it, but he didn't dare to continue looking, he raised his head to look at Wei Xun, and he didn't know whether he was more shocked or more amazed in his eyes. But Zhang Ming knew in his heart that his heart was beating extremely hard at the moment: "You want me to be the ...... of today's headlines"

Negotiation is all about leverage and attractiveness.

From the moment he saw this plan, Zhang Ming knew that he had lost.

But a person who can write a 'short video curve overtaking captain video' plan is enough to make Zhang Ming admire! Because from this plan, he sees Wei Xun's ambition.

The ambition to challenge the two behemoths of Honggao and Jutong!

This made Zhang Ming's whole person excited.

"You come to be the CEO of Toutiao, like Changming, I will give you absolute autonomy. I will give you 5% of the original shares, but you have to contribute 20 million as the capital for the shares, and you can increase the proportion of shares in the future. As long as you agree, I will give you the specific operation plan of Toutiao and Douyin. ”

Wei Xun smiled and said: "The day after tomorrow, I will leave for Xiangjiang, before that, I will see the news of your resignation in the media." ”

-

The so-called would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail.

The next day, news came from the financial sector that Zhang Ming, executive vice president of macro high-tech network media, resigned and announced that he would start his own business.

But what few people know is that behind Zhang Ming's independent entrepreneurship, Wei Xun is supporting.

An Internet technology company called 'ByteDance' quietly registered, and at this time, no one paid attention to this small enterprise.

As for Wei Xun, he is doing the final work in the Medal Media Office.

The problem of the 'headline system' was solved, the panda ticket purchase was successfully listed, the medal sat firmly in the leading position of the Chinese film and television industry, and the wedding date with Chi Tang was also set, and all Wei Xun's plans were carried out smoothly and handled properly. So next, I can also rest assured to start the filming of "Infernal Affairs".

His flight tomorrow morning will fly to Xiangjiang.

Zou Min has already taken the lead in setting off with the crew, and Bai Qianqi has already arrived at the crew in advance, just send Wei Xun, the director and actor.

When it was almost time to get off work, Wei Xun stood up and made coffee.

Dong Zhen knocked on the door and walked in, her expression was a little subtle: "Mr. Wei, when I was negotiating with the Film Bureau about the application for the Cannes Film Festival, the other party hinted that I might have variables, because director Liu Qiren is also eyeing the main competition unit of next year's Cannes Film Festival." ”

International A-category film festivals usually have to be reported very well in advance, such as Wei Xun who plans to rush to Cannes next year, even if the film has not started yet, he has to say hello to the official in advance.

Because there are thousands of films around the world that participate in the Cannes review every year, if you want to stand out and be valued by the Cannes Organizing Committee, it must be the most appropriate to go through the official channels for review.

Whether it is the Big Three or the Oscars, not only the quality of the film needs to be good, but also public relations matters, which is the default rule of the industry.

It stands to reason that with Wei Xun's current status, it is not difficult to get a Cannes application quota.

But this director Liu Qiren is a representative of Chinese literary and artistic film directors, and the work of Bai Qianqi who was once crowned emperor in Venice was filmed by this director Liu. Moreover, Liu Qiren has also exhibited his films in the 'Un Certain Unit' in Cannes, and even won a nomination for best director at the Berlin Film Festival.

It can be said that Liu Qiren is one of the three major 'frequent visitors' in the world.

Moreover, the Cannes Film Festival has an unwritten rule, although it is not absolute, but in general, if you want to win an award in the main competition unit of Cannes, you must have a work that has been shortlisted for the rest of the units, which can be regarded as Cannes' favor for filmmakers.

According to this model process, Liu Qiren's chances of winning the award this year are still quite large, after all, people do have a level.

But there must be only one place for the official review and selection of the 'main competition unit', and Director Liu took it, and Wei Xun was gone.

There are only 20 films in the main competition in Cannes, and under normal circumstances, the French themselves may have to account for 15 films, after all, the Cannes Film Festival is held by others, so the competition for the remaining five films must be fierce.

"The launch conference of "Infernal Affairs" in Xiangjiang was canceled, and there was no need to notify the media. ”

Wei Xun stirred the coffee in his hand, thought for a moment, and said: "After I go to Xiangjiang, you arrange for the media to break the news that "Infernal Affairs" will start filming quietly, and you intend to report the news of Cannes. ”

Since there is only one place, let's see who can get the PR down.

Everyone has their own ability.
