Wu Ming is the boss after all, since he has decided to sell the broadcast rights of the TV series to the mainland TV station at a low price, Shi Nansheng can only reluctantly obey. And Shi Nansheng also knows that there is indeed no oil and water to fish in the mainland, and it is already good to have one or two million.

Wu Ming twisted his body to make himself more comfortable lying down, closed his eyes and asked, "Manager Shi, how is the matter of the movie theater line?"

Shi Nansheng groaned and frowned: "Lei Juekun's Golden Princess Cinema rejected our proposal, and Anle Cinema and Zou Wenhuai's Jiahe Cinema agreed to our request for a release. ”

Wu Ming opened his eyes a little when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, as expected, Lei Juekun is ready to make a big show this year, with the two opponents of Jiahe and Shaw Brothers, the pressure is already relatively high, so naturally I don't want our dream factory to compete with them." But I just let you give it a try at first, and I didn't expect anything from that. ”

Shi Nansheng smiled bitterly: "Anle Cinema Line and Zou Wenhuai are also conditional. ”

"What conditions?" Wu Ming asked.

Shi Nansheng frowned slightly, and replied: "Anle Cinema Line wants to take some films from Lianmei Pictures to their theater to be screened." As for Golden Harvest Cinemas, Zou Wenhuai not only asked us to help them enter Hollywood, but also asked us to screen their films after DreamWorks established its own cinema chain. ”

Wu Ming smiled and said, "It seems that everyone understands that our Dream Factory will definitely build its own theater chain!"

Shi Nansheng looked at Wu Ming speechlessly and said, "Isn't this clear?" Boss, you are so rich, and you are buying TV stations, setting up record companies and film and television companies. Any citizen in Xiangjiang knows that sooner or later you will set up your own cinema. ”

Then Shi Nansheng asked again: "Boss, do you say we should promise Zou Wenhuai?"

Wu Ming smiled lightly and said in a deep voice: "Promise him! Zou Wenhuai mentioned such a condition, that is, he thought that our company was newly established and could not make good-looking movies, so they would naturally take advantage of the same movie."

However, I believe that the movies made by our company will be better than the movies of Golden Harvest, and when the time comes, it will not be possible for them to steal chickens and rice. As for entering Hollywood, we will naturally help too, but whether we can stand firm or not is none of our business. ”

The two theaters are screened, and it is naturally very rare in Xiangjiang at this time. However, Wu Ming knew that two years later, Xinyicheng would release several very high-grossing movies one after another, forcing Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers to cooperate, and then implement the "double-line joint screening" strategy.

It's just that Shaw Brothers' works have been produced on the set assembly line for decades, and the standards are uneven, so the result of the double-line joint screening is often a success of the well-made Golden Harvest films, and the Shaw Brothers ended dismally. It didn't take long for Shao Yifu to stand this situation, and took the initiative to end the cooperative relationship and part ways with Zou Wenhuai.

Wu Ming is very confident in DreamWorks movies, Zou Wenhuai does this, and in the end, his DreamWorks is more profitable. By the time Zou Wenhuai regretted not wanting to release the DreamWorks movie, DreamWorks had already gained a firm foothold.

Shi Nansheng stroked his forehead and looked at Wu Ming speechlessly, not knowing why Wu Ming was so confused and confident. She, Xu Ke's girlfriend, does not have Wu Ming's confidence in Xu Ke. I could only say helplessly: "Okay, I'll reply to Zou Wenhuai tomorrow." ”

Wu Ming got up and sat up, smiled and asked, "By the way, Manager Shi." How is Xu Ke's preparations, has the filming of "Best Partner" started?"

Shi Nansheng shook his head and replied: "Not yet, he just found the actors this month, and the crew is still preparing, and it will probably not start filming until next month." ”

Wu Ming nodded and said secretly, in this case, "Best Partner" will not be filmed until August.

At this time, the production manager Mai Danxiong walked in from outside the door with his head down and a script.

Wu Ming waved his hand and said, "Manager Mai, long time no see!"

Mai Danxiong raised his head when he heard this, and said in surprise: "Boss, you're back!"

Wu Ming nodded and smiled: "Yes!"

Mai Danxiong showed a smile on his face and said, "That's right, I have a script here and I'm about to discuss it with Manager Shi, boss, you can give you some pointers when you come back." ”

Immediately, Mai Danxiong handed the script in his hand to Wu Ming.

Wu Ming took the script and said, "Yes, then I have to take a good look at it." ”

Wu Ming saw the words "pretty girl" on the script, and a movie he had seen with sexy actress Wen Bifang as the heroine flashed in his mind. After reading the content, I found that the story told in this script was indeed the movie.

After reading it, Wu Ming handed the script to Shi Nansheng. Then with a speechless expression, he looked at Mai Danxiong with the dead fish and said, "You guy, you actually showed me this kind of script, is there any mistake." ”

"Pretty Girl" has a feeling of color when you hear the name, but in fact, this movie is really not very suitable for children. It tells the story of how the girls of Xiangjiang fell, and described the story of how they didn't like to read and fell into the place of Fengyue to sell their hue to make money.

Later, due to the bold exposure of the real social problems of Xiangjiang, this film also caused great controversy when it was released that year.

However, the film is indeed a pretty successful one. The film was shot on live radio, and was generally quite successful in all aspects of storytelling, atmosphere, actors' performances and technical performances.

Lin Biqi and Wen Bibian, two girls who performed in the film for the first time, became famous in one fell swoop, and won the Best Actress Award (Lin Biqi) and Best Packaging Award at the 2nd Xiangjiang Film Awards.

This film also allowed Lin Biqi to create two unbreakable records in the history of the Xiangjiang Film Awards: one is the youngest actress, who was only 17 years old when she won the award, and the other is the actress with the fewest works, who has only made one movie so far, which is "Pretty Girl", which won her award.

"Oops!"

Mai Danxiong suddenly patted his head, and said with an embarrassed face: "I'm really sorry, boss, you are usually too mature, and you have forgotten your age." ”

Shi Nansheng heard the conversation between Wu Ming and Mai Danxiong, and was very curious, what was wrong with this script, so that the boss said so.

After Shi Nansheng finished reading it, he also looked at Mai Danxiong helplessly, and said: "Manager Mai, pay attention to it next time you show the script to the boss, although the boss is mature, he is still a child after all." ”

Mai Danxiong scratched his head and sneered, "Got it." ”

Shi Nansheng nodded, and then said seriously: "This script is indeed very good, do you have a choice for the director?"

Mai Danxiong nodded and replied: "Yes, my apprentice Li Dawei has participated in sixty or seventy films, and he should be able to direct this movie well." ”

Shi Nansheng looked at Wu Ming and asked, "Boss, what is your opinion?"

Wu Ming searched for Li Dawei's information from his mind, nodded and responded: "Li Dawei is indeed very good, our company wants to train film directors, and he is a good candidate." ”

Shi Nansheng saw that Wu Ming agreed, and immediately clapped his hands and said, "Then this movie will be handed over to Li Dawei." ”
