Jiang Ran planned to acquire the "Daily Daily" in July, and after completing the acquisition of the newspaper, Jiang Ran did not take any other actions, and even rarely interfered in the normal operation and management of the newly acquired newspaper. Jiang Ran's lack of interference in the actual management of the newspaper does not mean that he is laissez-faire in the development of the "Tian Tian Daily", and in the more than a month since he got the newspaper, Jiang Ran has been committed to sorting out the relationship between its various companies, so as to integrate the resources of the companies under his name.

On the basis of the original company infrastructure, Jiang Ran established the head office of Ranfeng Media Group Company to unify its other companies with the group company. Under the group company, there are Jiang Ran's first business, the video store, which is mainly engaged in the physical distribution of audio-visual books and periodicals, and has now officially changed its name, the fashion magazine "Oriental Charm" magazine and its subordinate Oriental Charm Clothing, the comprehensive paper media newspaper "Tiantian Daily", and the Burning Feng Film Company, which only produces and distributes one film at this stage.

In Jiang Ran's plan, "Tiantian Daily" will play a role in providing a platform for the group's publicity and voice, and at the same time, the newspaper can also publish novels and provide original materials for film companies. The main role of "Oriental Charm" magazine is to provide publicity channels and some advertising endorsement resources for the actors signed by the company in the future, and at the same time, it can also complement the "Daily Daily" in publicity and further strengthen the group's publicity and distribution capabilities. The company will devote itself to the distribution of records, movie cassettes and peripheral products and books, so as to enhance the profit chain of the Group's films. Ran Feng Film Company will undoubtedly be the core of the entire group in the future, and he will be the content provider of the group.

In Jiang Ran's plan, the film company produces the film, and the group's newspapers and magazines provide publicity for the film, so that the film can get more favorable distribution resources, thus making it easier for the film to succeed. On the other hand, successful movies can create a large number of stars, and these star resources can provide better news materials for newspapers and magazines, so as to maximize profits, but it is a pity that Jiang Ran does not have the ability to have his own cinema chain and TV platform now.

When Jiang Ran was committed to the integration of his company, the three cinema chain companies in Hong Kong's film summer file were in full swing, among which the golden princess was a new recruit to the theater, but this summer this year, the golden princess had begun to show her fangs, among which the "Chasing Girls" produced by Xinyicheng was released for more than a month, and has now received more than 8 million, becoming the third highest-grossing film this year. Although Jiang Ran preemptively produced the original "Ghost Horse Zhi Duoxing" produced by Xinyicheng, he had to admire the creativity of Xinyicheng at this time, and his movie "SH Beach Patrol" about SH Beach was released in late July, and by mid-August, it had received more than 6 million, so it can be said that the Hong Kong film market throughout the summer is completely dominated by the Golden Princess.

When Jiang Ran handled the affairs of the group company almost, the time had quietly come to the middle of August, during which the flagship store of the Oriental clothing brand under the "Oriental Charm" magazine opened in Hong Kong, and in just half a month, because of the popularity accumulated by the magazine, the sales reached 1 million, becoming another cash cow in Jiang Ran's hands.

After the company's affairs were initially smoothed out, Jiang Ran once again set his sights on the film market, but this time he had to do it alone, planning and directing himself, this time Jiang Ran planned to move the small-budget movie "Nightclub" to Hong Kong, of course, the plot in it needs a lot of deletion and modification, such as communication tools, such as character dialogue, etc., it can be said that to move the nightclub to Hong Kong in 1981 to be released, it is almost necessary to push the original film to the construction, Jiang Ran just needs to use the story creativity and framework of the original movie.

Although Ranfeng Film Company is independent from the group, there are only more than ten people in the company, and now because there is no film production plan, most of them are idle.

Due to the fact that there are fewer projects and not many personnel in the film company, Jiang Ran is the manager of the film company, and the administrative management is managed by Le Zhiren, the administrative director of the group head office. Jiang Ran sat in the conference room of the film company and said to Hu Hai, the editor of the company: "Ah Hai, this time you are still mainly responsible for the editing of the film's jokes, but I don't need too exaggerated expressions, what I need is some more plain humor, not exaggerated, but it will always make people laugh inadvertently." ”

Hu Hai recorded while listening to Jiang Ran's request: "No problem, Mr. Jiang, I will gather a few colleagues who are good at jokes to edit this part together." ”

Jiang Ran then instructed Li Tingzhu, the editor in charge of the plot structure and filling, "Tingzhu, the editor of your plot should pay special attention, I require that all the storylines can stand up to logical scrutiny, do not have some plot flaws, the clues of the plot should be clear, and in addition, in the process of advancing the plot, the two groups should also communicate more, so as to make the script more exciting." ”

Without waiting for Li Tingzhu to speak, Jiang Ran said to the employees of the distribution department: "The distribution department can't wait until the movie comes out to start working, you should fully cooperate with the editorial department to do market research from the time of film preparation, so that the editorial department can be as close to the market demand as possible when editing the script." ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Ran stopped and turned his head to the staff of the editorial department and said: "Your script needs to consider the market demand when editing, but you must also maintain the purity of creation in the creative process, and don't be completely swayed by the market. ”

After admonishing Wan to the editorial staff, Jiang Ran continued the previous topic, "In the process of film preparation, in addition to doing a good job of market research, the distribution department also needs to understand the production and distribution of films that may appear in the film market that may be competitive with the film we are preparing, and understand the filming situation of various theater companies during the scheduled release period of our film. ”

"Mr. Jiang, please rest assured that the staff of our distribution department will definitely start the relevant work during the preparation period of the film, and keep in touch with the editing and production departments in a timely manner to ensure that the distribution department will be involved in the whole process of the film from preparation to distribution. Jiang Wei, the head of the distribution department, assured Jiang Ran.

"Well, that's good. Jiang Ran nodded and turned to producer Liu Liwei, "Ah Wei, you should help me contact the production team behind the scenes, especially pay attention to the fact that I need an experienced assistant director to assist me in completing the storyboard editing of the film in the early stage, and I can give a commitment to invest in his film." ”

"Mr. Jiang, the creative staff behind the scenes has the fame that we made in our last film, so it's not difficult to find. And the assistant director who assists you in completing the movie storyboard, in Hong Kong now, the director basically does not draw another storyboard when directing a movie, so there are only people who have systematically learned the knowledge of directing, but this kind of person is generally relatively young, and there may not be a lot of experience on the set. In addition, there is a question of when the script of "Nightclub" will be completed, and I can confirm the schedule with others. Liu Liwei is the deputy producer of the movie "Ghost Horse Wisdom and Multi-Star", he had experience in TV production before entering Ranfeng, and is now the production manager of Ranfeng Film Company.

After listening to Liu Liwei's words, Jiang Ran said: "It doesn't matter, you have little experience on the set, you can find another experienced assistant director when filming starts in the future." Then he turned his head and asked the editorial staff, "Ah Hai, Tingzhu, how long will it take for your editorial department to complete the editing of the script?"

Hu Hai and Li Tingzhu discussed it together and said, "Mr. Jiang, we need about half a month to make the script. ”

Jiang Ran lowered his head and calculated, and said to Liu Liwei: "Script creation needs to be fine, let's leave 20 days, when I am doing the movie storyboard design, you can do the filming plan and budget of the movie at the same time, do all the preliminary work of the film before September 20, and you can set the schedule in late September when you contact the crew." ”

"Okay, Mr. Jiang!" Liu Liwei nodded in response.

In this way, on August 16, 1981, Jiang Ran's first film project "Nightclub" began to be prepared and approved, and Jiang Ran and the editorial staff of Ranfeng Film Company also began to create film scripts.
