Chapter 660: Monsters Attack
chatted with Cao Zhengqing and Hong Tianming for a long time, and gave these two people who were more than 20 years older than Ye Qiu to the ground in admiration for Ye Qiu, especially Cao Zhengqing, who felt that the person in charge of the documentary channel was simply stunned compared to Ye Qiu.

Cao Zhengqing's speed is very fast, or in other words, because of the recent explosion of the documentary market, the pressure on Cao Zhengqing has also increased dramatically, so the efficiency is exceptionally high.
"Home Far Away" was quickly established in the CCTV documentary department, and the preliminary research and preparation began.
For handing over the documentary to the CCTV documentary channel to do, instead of doing it himself, Ye Qiu naturally has his own considerations, first of all, Dianjin Film and Television has its own projects at all, and documentaries have always been manpower and material resources, and the production cycle is long, Dianjin Film and Television may be able to recruit a group of people to be responsible for it, but, to be honest, the income that documentaries can generate is still not a little bit worse.
The most important thing is that documentaries, especially those documentaries in Ye Qiu's memory, are actually difficult for a company to exert its real power, and it is different to leave it to CCTV.
For example, if "Home Far Away" is produced by Ye Qiu's Dianjin Film and Television by himself, he actually needs to seek support from CCTV, and he also needs to coordinate the locality, and there are too many things that need to be done, but if it is placed on CCTV, it will be different, after all, it is the mouthpiece of the country, even if it is a documentary channel, but for the locality, it is also the people above.
Secondly, in fact, Ye Qiu did not lose at all, and he pocketed the network copyright for free, and Ye Qiu was also content.
And you can sell personal favors, so why not?
Speaking of the production cycle, in China, the production cycle of TV series is often much longer than that of ordinary movies, after all, a movie is more than two hours at most, while a TV series may have dozens of hours long.
Of course, this refers to TV series in general and movies in general, and if it involves a lot of post-production, that's another story.
"The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" and "Ode to Joy" have almost started filming successively, but "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" is close to completion, and the filming process of "Ode to Joy" has not yet reached the halfway point.
"The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" is a feature film, so there is not much post-production involved, of course, the post-production referred to here, excluding editing, mainly talks about special effects.
Therefore, it is time for "The Story of Hachiko, the Loyal Dog" to start publicity and warm-up.
Ye Qiu rarely interferes in the filming of movies and TV series, but most of the time in terms of publicity, Ye Qiu, a master of publicity and promotion, is needed to make plans.
"The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" is naturally no exception, after all, although the investment in this movie is only about 20 million Chinese yuan, Ye Qiu still has great expectations for this film.
Although it has changed the background and protagonist from "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" in his previous life, Ye Qiu is still very confident.
In terms of publicity, Ye Qiu actually thought about it when the script "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" was written.
This time, Ye Qiu didn't make any big incidents, because "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" was well-known, and because of the previous turmoil of "monster movies", everyone had already made trouble.
And now it's just a matter of rewarming the heat that has cooled down before.
Yisou Video Network, Feixun, and Weixin jointly held a competition called "Cute Pets at Home".
Participants can shoot videos about themselves and their pets, and then upload them to Yisou Video Network, and finally the top three will be voted by netizens to win a "pet gift package" worth 10,000 yuan and a cash prize of 100,000 yuan.
In terms of WeChat, it is a prize-winning essay contest of "You have cute pets at home and the stories that cute pets have to tell".
Contestants can sign up for the competition through the channel, write their own and their pet's story, and finally the top three will be voted by netizens, and the winners will also have a pet gift package of 10,000 yuan and a cash prize of 100,000 yuan.
At the same time, netizens who participate in the voting will randomly select ten lucky users every day, and the prizes are movie tickets for "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" and tickets for the premiere.
For this kind of activity, it is not new, but the rewards are still very generous.
Everything is too much, and the popularity and attention of the movie "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" is not lacking, so I just used these activities to warm up, and did not do other related activities.
Because of Ye Qiu's reputation, the movies produced by Dianjin Film and Television can get a good amount of films in many cases, although "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" is not enough for big productions, but in terms of filming treatment, they are still scheduled according to big productions.
However, just when the scheduled date of "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" was announced, a strong news came.
Distributed by Dongying Group, Hollywood blockbusters will land in China, and Hollywood blockbusters will land in China, which is actually not news at all, but this time is different.
Because this blockbuster is a real blockbuster, and, most importantly, this blockbuster is a monster movie!
The monster movie, which claims to have invested more than 200 million US dollars, is definitely a big production among big productions.
This monster movie called "Monster" is an out-and-out monster movie, and coincidentally, the schedule of this "Monster" has once again collided with "The Story of Hachiko, the Loyal Dog".
Reminiscent of the entanglement between Dongying Group and Ye Qiu, and Dianjin Film and Television, it is difficult not to make the majority of netizens and viewers suspect that this time Dongying is once again targeting Dianjin Film and Television.
Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental? Monster movies are on pet movies, big monsters are on small pets, and they are released on the same schedule.
Where in the world is there such a coincidence?
As mentioned earlier, "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" is Ye Qiu's work, and because it is a movie produced by Dianjin Film and Television, even if it is not a big production, it is also a big production.
However, the number of screens is fixed, and in terms of the film schedule of the theater, if there is no big production of "Monster", the number of films scheduled for "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" is definitely the treatment of a big production, but at this time, I ran into "Monster".
In order to strive for more film scheduling, or to crack down on Ye Qiu's "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko", Dongying Group is extremely dissatisfied with the proportion of the film schedule of the two films it has just obtained.
Why? Because, although the number of films in "Monster" is as high as 30, it is indeed the treatment of a big production, but "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko", a small-budget film with an investment of less than one-tenth of "Monster", has a schedule of more than 20%, which makes Ren Zhongjun very dissatisfied.
For this, he also openly expressed his dissatisfaction.
"I believe anyone can see the gap between 200 million US dollars and 20 million Chinese dollars, but the treatment of such two films with such a big gap is almost the same."
"I don't know what kind of factors the theater chain is considering, it's normal for "Monster" to enjoy the treatment of large-scale productions, but the investment of 20 million in "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" turned out to be several times that of other films with investment of the same grade, is this too unfair to other films?"
