171 Film Investment

After Zhang Yiming made up his mind, he was very decisive, and a week later, he called Zhong Yue. On the phone, Zhong Yue asked him to go directly to the company.

He took the address, not too far from home. After driving the car, after more than half an hour, I arrived at the place. Home of Easy Entertainment.

He explained his intention to the front desk, and soon, a young and capable woman came down and shook hands with him, "You are Mr. Zhang Yiming, Mr. Zhang, my name is Wang Mei, and I am Mr. Zhong's assistant." ”

"Hello." Zhang Yiming was a little nervous.

Wang Mei said, "Mr. Zhong is still in a meeting, and he has already instructed me about your affairs, please come with me." Please. ”

Zhang Yiming is a careful person, and he noticed that the little girl at the front desk was very respectful to Wang Mei. Obviously, Zhong Yue's assistant has a very high status in the company.

After a few years in the hospital, he is not ignorant of human affairs. She was able to come down to pick her up in person, it must be for Zhong Yue's sake.

But the more this is the case, the lower he has to put his posture down, and he can't smear Zhong Yue's face. He said gratefully, "I'm sorry to trouble Assistant Wang." ”

"No trouble."

Wang Mei knew that he had an unusual relationship with the boss, and his attitude was naturally quite friendly. Lead him to an office on the second floor.

There was also a man about thirty years old in the office, and Wang Mei introduced him to him, "This is Zou Xuan, the head of the company's personnel department." ”

"Hello." Zhang Yiming shook his hand.

Zou Xuan smiled and said, "Here, I wish you to become a member of the company, please take a seat." ”

"Thank you."

After the three of them sat down, Zou Xuan took out a contract. Say. "It's an employment contract. You can take a look first, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Mei on the side said, "If you have any requirements, you can also mention them, and we will try our best to satisfy you." ”

Hearing her words, Zou Xuan couldn't help but glance at her.

"Okay."

Zhang Yiming took the contract. After a quick glance, the most concerned is of course the salary, and after seeing the numbers above, I breathed a sigh of relief. This salary is one or two percent higher than when he was a doctor, and all his salary, bonuses, and other incomes combined.

He had just joined the company and had not contributed a little, and if Zhong Yue offered him a salary that was too high, he would not be able to accept it with peace of mind. Now this amount is also on the high side. It's still acceptable. I thought that I had to work hard to be worthy of this salary.

There are also many clauses in the contract. He only looked at the content of the working hours, and did not look at the rest in detail. He believed that Zhong Yue would not pit him.

After reading it, he looked up and said, "I don't think there's a problem. ”

He didn't even dare to ask for more salary, let alone ask for special treatment, even if Zhong Yue arranged it for him, he would resign.

The so-called merit is not punished, he will not rely on his friendship with Zhong Yue, and he will take it for granted that he will be treated. On the contrary, it is precisely because he has a good relationship with Zhong Yue that he has to pay more attention to the influence and not drag Zhong Yue back.

Zou Xuan glanced at Wang Mei first, and saw that she didn't say anything, so he took out a pen and said, "Since it's no problem, let's sign the contract." ”

Soon, Zhang Yiming signed a contract and officially became a member of Yi Entertainment Company.

Then, Wang Mei took Zhang Yiming to visit the company, "In this building, this floor, and the upper two floors are all our company. This floor is the animation department, the upper floor is the animation film department, and the next floor is the newly established special effects department. I'll show you there. ”

Zhang Yiming followed behind her and found that everyone was quite respectful when they saw her, and even the heads of several departments seemed very enthusiastic. I thought that my guess should be correct, her status in the company is indeed quite high.

Although he didn't ask Zhong Yue about the company in detail, he only knew that there were several companies under his name, and Yi Entertainment was the most inconspicuous one, only knowing that he had produced several very popular cartoons, and an animated movie that almost broke the record.

Now, after he came to visit in person, he realized that the scale of the company is really large, and the animation production department alone has five projects going on at the same time, with more than a dozen people in each team. Together, there are nearly 100 people.

When it comes to the animated film department, there are even more people.

After going up to the upper floor, Wang Mei introduced, "Now there are two projects in the film department, one is "Ice Sculpture Lord", and the other is still in preparation, which is a young children's animation. ”

"Ice Sculpture Lord" Zhang Yiming has heard that although he doesn't read novels, he will still watch the animation produced by Zhong Yue. Although the historical status of this animation is not as good as that of the "Imperial Warrior" animation, due to the huge fan base of the original work, it is not weak at all in terms of popularity. The number of broadcasts has even surpassed "Diwu".

After the "Diwu" movie won the terrifying box office, the adaptation of "Ice Sculpture Lord" is also imperative.

As for another project for children's animation, he was a little impressed and asked, "Is it the one who called for scripts some time ago?" ”

When Yi Entertainment was still a studio, it established its official website early, and invested a lot in the construction of the official website. As more and more animations are released, the official website has also gathered a lot of popularity.

Some time ago, Yi Entertainment released a blockbuster news through the official website, soliciting millions of scripts for animated films, with no subject matter.

Several companies under Zhong Yue have invested a lot of money on publicity, and they have also established their own publicity channels, and soon hyped up the news, and Yi Entertainment, which became famous with the movie "Diwu", also attracted a lot of attention.

Zhang Yiming saw it at the end of the film when he was watching the animation, so he had some impressions.

"That's right."

Wang Mei nodded and said, "Mr. Zhong has always attached great importance to scripts, and through this activity, two scripts have been selected, which have been bought from the author and will be announced to the media soon." Now one has been approved and is being prepared. ”

Animated films need more delicate and delicate pictures, so they need more life. Combined, the two project teams have more than 150 employees. Some of them are still on vacation in Hainan and are not there.

Zhang Yiming finished visiting the two departments, I felt really eye-opening, it turned out that an animation of more than 20 minutes, it takes so much work, I used to just hear that animations are drawn one by one, and after really seeing it, I realized that it is much more complicated. As for animated films, the workload has to be multiplied several times.

This company is only the most inconspicuous industry in Zhongyue, with such a large scale, what will be the easy soft company and the easy smart phone?

For the first time, he intuitively felt the power represented by Zhong Yue's billions of net worth.

In the end, he followed Wang Mei to the special effects department. As soon as he went up, he thought that he had arrived at a museum, and there were all kinds of models everywhere, including people, animals, monsters, robots, big and small, all kinds of strange things.

The head of the special effects department is a young man who speaks broken Chinese and calls himself Pete Chen. Apparently an ABC.

Just when Pete Chen introduced his team's work to him in a proud tone, Zhong Yue finally came.

"How does it feel?" After Zhong Yue said hello to Pete Chen, he asked Zhang Yiming.

Zhang Yiming said, "It's quite novel. ”

"Indeed, it doesn't take long for you to find out that it's a very interesting job." Zhong Yue said with a smile.

For him, other companies are all doing business, only Easy Entertainment, which is what he really likes, whether it is animation or filming, he is very motivated to participate.

Next, Zhong Yue personally took Zhang Yiming to visit,

Twenty minutes later, Wang Mei came over and said to Zhong Yue, "Director Wen is here." ”

Zhong Yue stopped talking and said to Zhang Yiming, "Let's go, I'll take you to meet the director of the movie, Wen Wu." ”

Zhang Yiming is not a movie enthusiast, he is not familiar with this name, he took out his mobile phone and searched it, and soon found out that he had seen both works of this director, and the first one was very good. But in the second part, he lost at the box office, and he had a little impression, it was really bad.

When he met the real person, he found out that the director, who said "young" in the introduction, looked like he was in his forties. The face of the Chinese character and the beard are still grown.

This meeting was obviously quite formal. In addition to the director, there is also a genuine producer, a middle-aged man with a shrewd face. Chengying Group also sent representatives, plus screenwriters, and a group of people gathered around to negotiate.

Zhang Yiming didn't make a sound, and was reading the script while listening. After turning a few pages, he was fascinated by the story of the script and didn't bother to listen to their discussion.

Modern people travel to movies and change the plot, and such creativity is already commonplace in online novels. But for people who have not been exposed to this genre, it is still quite a novelty.

The background of the script, "Movie", tells the story of a small tour group traveling to a little-known ancient town, encountering animal mutations and falling into crisis.

When formulating this script, Zhong Yue deliberately placed most of the scenes indoors in order to reduce the difficulty and also to control the cost. Because it is a horror film, radio and television regulations do not allow ghosts and the like. He borrowed the background of the Doomsday Stream, and one day, the animals of the world began to mutate, turned into monsters, and began to hunt humans. As for the source, it is naturally in this ancient town.

The protagonist is a retired special forces, and the heroine is a big star who is going to experience life for the new movie, and she is accompanied by a bodyguard. Plus the villain also has a few supporting roles.

In Zhong Yue's plan, this movie as the background is also going to be edited out separately for release, so the script is written quite carefully. The atmosphere is tense and exciting.

As for the script of infinite streaming, the protagonist is an ordinary white-collar worker, and there is a veteran, plus several other newcomers. The story follows the general plot of the "movie", but the details are completely different, after all, there are several more characters who know the plot of the movie.

After Zhang Yiming read the script, he had a feeling that he couldn't wait to make this movie.

At this time, he heard Zhong Yue's words, "...... The total investment in the film is initially set at 150 million. I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. (To be continued......)
