Chapter 595: Entering the entertainment industry
Jiang Zhen was a little aggrieved, he felt that Hang Yu was a little stingy with the entertainment company, other projects could not move tens of millions, hundreds of millions, but he was only willing to invest less than five million to make a movie.
For a movie, five million funds are really tight, not to mention blockbusters, even a slightly more exciting police movie can't be made, and you can only make the most money-saving movie that is close to life.
Wumao special effects, the problems that can be solved with photography technology will never be delayed to the later stage, props and costumes are best bought at stalls, basically no sets, no celebrities are invited, and the script is written by the editorial department.
That's it.
"Chairman, we have filmed three variety shows, and you have also seen the quality of China tours, both the script and the picture are first-class in China. We are fully capable of controlling a movie, is it more relaxed to fund it?" Jiang Zhen asked.
"Variety shows and movies are different in the end, and China Tour can do it to this extent, which is also the accumulation of the first two variety shows. If you want to get better support, you'd better prove yourself with your strength, rather than rushing for quick success and bent on smashing blockbusters with money. Hang Yu said.
"Well, I'll do my best. Jiang Zhen said helplessly.
"Actually, the subject matter of your script is okay, but the plot is too old-fashioned, and I can guess what you want to write as soon as I look at the title. Sure enough, when I opened it, the contents were similar to what I had guessed, and it was a long, smelly footwrap. The movie is not, and it is not a TV series, the plot is better to have suspense, surprise, and go straight to the point, you know. Hang Yu said.
Although he can't write a script, he knows how to appreciate it.
"Surprise, straight in. Jiang Zhen was thoughtful.
"For example, you can change the male protagonist to a normal student, who is about to become a teacher, and is assigned to teach in a mountain village. The actor was very unhappy and tried his best to shirk it, but in the end he didn't succeed and could only come to the mountain village. Hang Yu said.
"Being forced to teach, and trying to shirk it, can't it reflect the noble spirit of volunteer teaching. Jiang Zhen said.
"So you, the noble spirit is good, but it doesn't reflect the true heart. If you look at what is written in the script, the hero and heroine are a couple in college, and both of them have a very lofty spirit of teaching and go to the mountain village to teach together. Even if there are such people in reality, they are very rare, how can the audience have a sense of substitution?"
In the script, the male and female protagonists are written too well, teaching together, encountering various difficulties in mountain villages, solving difficulties together, and struggling to improve the educational conditions for children......
This kind of spirit is too superior, and Hang Yu looks "unhappy".
"I don't think there is no noble spirit in this world, but a person cannot be born so noble. He must have a process of change, and at the beginning of the process, there is often a lesson, and you have to shoot the process. Hang Yu said.
"I see. Jiang Zhen nodded.
"In addition to the emotional and spiritual gradients, the drama, I wanted to add some other elements to the plot. For example, a girl in a mountain village elementary school was killed by a male teacher, you know. Hang Yu said.
"Yes. Jiang Zhen continued to nod.
"Do you know that comedy and tragedy complement each other?" Hang Yu asked.
"Knowing, it is to use a clearer plot and picture, and a darker plot and picture, to produce a strong visual and ideological impact. "Jiang Zhen has been a director for so long, and there is some research.
"Write it like this, and then show it to me when it's done. Hang Yu said.
"Okay, I'll tell them to rewrite. Jiang Zhen said.
"It's better to find a few professional, spiritual screenwriters. Hang Yu reminded.
"I will. Jiang Zhen replied.
Good editors are not so easy to find, and it is clear that those people in the editorial department are not qualified.
Hang Yu didn't plan to meddle in the specific work of the entertainment company, he didn't have so much energy, and he couldn't write it if he really wanted to. It's always easier to comment than to work, Hang Yu knows very well what he can do, or it is more suitable for him to point out the country.
Anyway, as long as he asks for it, the people below will do their best to complete it.
No matter how difficult things are, as long as there are enough people and are willing to work hard, they can always be completed.
"Chairman, Manager Shen asked me to tell you that she wants to re-plan the music department. Jiang Zhen said.
"Tell me about it. Hang Yu said.
"Manager Shen wants to select singers with good strength and appearance to build, package, and officially enter the entertainment industry. In this way, not only can you get more benefits in the music sector, but you can also endorse other products. Jiang Zhen said.
"Yes. Hang Yu nodded.
In fact, Hang Yu doesn't really want to enter the entertainment industry, because it is a network of interests and its complex circle.
Behind the entertainment industry, in fact, are the bigwigs from all sides.
However, he was a little sorry for Shen Miaofu, so let her give it a try.
"I hope you don't just rely on headquarters investment, especially if you make movies, you can go to investors. It's too risky to make a movie, I can't afford it on my own, you know. Hang Yu said.
"Okay, I'll give it a try. "Jiang Zhen is not very confident.
Seeing Jiang Zhen's appearance, Hang Yu secretly shook his head, how could he become a famous director.
However, Jiang Zhen's variety show is really good, and Hang Yu thinks that as long as he has a little more experience, he still has a chance. Many people actually don't lack talent, but they lack the opportunity to practice, Jiang Zhen was lucky and met Hang Yu.
"Is there anything else?" asked Hang Yu.
"We are planning to hold a calligraphy exhibition recently, and we have invited a lot of calligraphy masters, I don't know if you are interested. Jiang Zhen asked, but this was not important work, so he said a little hesitantly.
"Nope. Hang Yu decisively refused.
Under normal circumstances, Hang Yu is willing to take some time to give the entertainment company a platform and publicize it. But during the special period, Hang Yu didn't want to meet Shen Miaofu, and Jiang Zhen's invitation was doomed to failure.
After sending Jiang Zhen away, Hang Yu set his sights on fruitful agriculture.
Xiao Zili has been working abroad for some time, and has purchased 20,000 hectares of land in Africa, 50,000 hectares in Brazil, and 60,000 hectares in Australia.
Among these lands is arable land and pastureland, that is, pastures for cattle and sheep.
Xiao Zili not only grows fruits and vegetables overseas, but also raises a lot of dairy cows, and plans to open a milk powder factory in the future. However, he opened a milk powder factory, not to sell it for money, but to supply it internally.
If the production volume is large, it will also be supplied to the company's loyal customers.
"This guy seems to have fallen in love with the profession of a farmer. When Hang Yu saw the video in the report sent back by Xiao Zili, he was a little envious of him, because the farm he bought abroad was very beautiful.
