Chapter 233 Surviving in the Cracks?

When the crew of "Pink Girl" went to the East China Sea, Mai Xiaoyu did not go with the crew, but stayed in Yanjing to participate in the post-production of "Crazy Stone".

With Liu Xiaoli in charge of the crew, he doesn't have to worry too much about the filming of "Pink Girl", but the post-production of "Crazy Stone" can't be relaxed.

When the post-production of "Crazy Stone" was completed, after Mengren BIG3 watched the sample, Zhang Xiaoquan stayed in Yanjing to watch the company, and he and Xi Xiaoxing came to the East China Sea with the copy to discuss the distribution with Hailian Cinema.

Due to the early publicity of "Crazy Stone", as well as the cameo of screenwriters A Zheng and Lau Dehua, the distribution department of Hailian Cinemas said that it would review the film and give an answer as soon as possible.

But now three or four days have passed, and Nima has no news at all.

Yu Xiaoxing called, and the other party said that it was being studied.

It takes so long to study Nimei?

Tonight, Mai Xiaoyu hosted Chen Xiangxi at the banquet in Tan's official mansion, mainly to express his gratitude to Chen Xiangxi for his help last time, but he heard the words "stumped the people in our company's distribution department" from the other party.

What does it mean to be stumped?

What does this mean?

Chen Xiangxi didn't explain, and Mai Xiaoyu didn't ask.

After dinner, Mai Xiaoyu returned to the Express Hotel, and when he entered the door, he saw Xi Xiaoxing staring intently at the computer.

"Have you eaten?" Mai Xiaoyu asked.

Xiao Xing didn't reply and said, "Hmm." ”

"Look less yellow, you can order takeout if necessary."

"Rub, this is more exciting than the yellow picture."

Mai Xiaoyu took off his coat and put on slippers, and walked over curiously to take a look: Nima, Lin Zhiling's stills!

Xi Xiaoxing turned around, looked up at Mai Xiaoyu, and asked expressionlessly, "She, is Lin Zhiling?" ”

"Hmm."

"Yangcheng...... The lamb? ”

"Hmm."

"She's what you're looking for?"

"Hmm."

"Boss, no, you're my brother, my own brother, don't play like this! Knowing that she is a lamb, you still take the initiative to find her, how dangerous it is! What if something happens? ”

During the preparation of "Pink Girl", Xi Xiaoxing and Zhang Xiaoquan led the team to shoot "Crazy Stone" in the mountain city. After returning to Yanjing, he was busy with post-production, and he didn't know the actors of the "Pink Girl" crew.

Until tonight, Xi Xiaoxing was bored on the Internet, and accidentally saw the recent hot news of Lin Zhiling's stills on the Internet, and suddenly the whole person was not good.

Mai Xiaoyu smiled and shook his head: "Isn't this okay?" Since I went to her, I must be fully prepared and there will be no problems. ”

"You mean, she's been leveled by you?"

"Don't say it so ugly, at least I promised her that she did it, and she didn't have any complaints."

"Then we can fire Chen Qiaoen?"

Mai Xiaoyu asked rhetorically: "Why did you fire her?" ”

"She's undercover, boss!"

"She's just a lamb in my eyes. Let me tell you, the family backgrounds of Chen Qiaoen and Lin Zhiling are not simple......"

Mai Xiaoyu told the story of his encounter with Xia Luofeng in Xiangjiang and the installation of listening equipment in his room, and Xiao Xing was dumbfounded when he heard it.

Then he used Lin Zhiling as an example: "Don't you think that these days, the hot hype on Lin Zhiling on the Internet is wrong?" ”

Something must be wrong!

If it was just spontaneous dissemination by netizens, it would never have been possible to make such a big move, and even the information of Lin Zhiling as a model and the print advertisements he had shot before were turned out.

All kinds of dissemination of photos, fancy comments and praises, as well as a large number of comments and praises, as well as the amazing speed of Weibo fans, there is a driving force behind it at a glance.

"Do you know that people have a background and want to circle people?" Xiao Xing is going crazy.

"It's because their backgrounds are not simple that I want to circle even more!"

Xiao Xing blinked, and suddenly understood.

Just like Su Youpeng and Lau Dehua in the circle at the beginning, if you don't use some special means, with the current scale and status of Meng Ren, it is difficult to get a relationship with these big-name stars, let alone get the support of the other party.

Since Lin Zhiling and Chen Qiaoen's family backgrounds are not simple, trapping them may win two major boosts for cute people!

To put it bluntly, this is Mai Xiaoyu's way of expanding contacts in the entertainment industry, and there is no one else in a unique way......

"Well, you win." Xiao Xing nodded, and suddenly asked nervously, "How is the circle?" ”

"Lin Zhiling should be fine, we had a good chat that night."

"Hehe, where are you talking?"

"Come here, I'll tell you."

Xi Xiaoxing is not stupid, so he will not take the initiative to send it over and be beaten: "Just kidding, as for it?" How is Chen Qiaoen? ”

"This lamb evolves too fast and is not easy to circle. But she's already in the pit, and the difference is the heat. ”

"You have to speed up and don't circle her, Brother Fork and I have been unsteady in our hearts. It's really not good, you managed to circle her heart first, didn't you dream of her in your spring dream? ”

"Don't run away, I swear I won't kill you!"

In order to avoid the pain of flesh and skin, Xi Xiaoxing hurriedly changed the topic: "Boss, what's going on over there in Hailian Cinemas, it's been a few days, and I won't give a word if it's okay, what does it mean to keep dragging it out?" ”

The next morning, Xiao Xing received a call from the manager of the distribution department of Hailian Cinema Line, inviting him and Mai Xiaoyu to come over in the afternoon to discuss in detail the distribution agency of "Crazy Stone".

In the afternoon, when he arrived at Hailian Cinema, Mai Xiaoyu finally understood why Chen Xiangxi said that "Crazy Stone" stumped the people in their company's distribution department.

In fact, after the Hailian Distribution Department got the copy of "Crazy Stone", it organized people to watch the sample film the next day, and then unanimously approved it and agreed to distribute it as an agent.

However, in terms of whether to advance the publicity and distribution expenses, there were disagreements among the internal personnel of the Hailian Distribution Department.

Whether or not to pay in advance is related to the level of the issuance agency fee charged.

Take "I Believe" as an example of nearly 40 million at the box office.

Because Hailian Cinemas did not pay the issuance fee in advance, it only got the distribution agency fee of 500,000 or 600,000 yuan in the end; If you pay the issuance fee in advance, you can get at least 1.45 million issuance agency fees!

When the Hailian Distribution Department first watched the sample film of "Crazy Stone", they all thought that the biggest selling point of this movie was on Dehua Lau.

As a result, after watching the film, they found that Lau's selling point only exists in the early publicity, and the film itself ......

One word, cow!

Two words, shocking!

Considering the failure of "I Believe", some people proposed to distribute the film as an agent in the mode of paying the distribution fee in advance. Wait until the film is released, and charge more distribution agency fees.

There are also people who oppose it, fearing that they will miss it.

Because the cute side asked to be released during the summer vacation.

During the summer vacation......

It's already early June, and it will take at least a month or two for the movie to be promoted, which means that "Crazy Stone" will be released at the end of July and early August at the earliest.

At that time, it was already past the domestic film protection month, and "Crazy Stone" would have to survive in the gap between Hollywood blockbusters and domestic blockbusters...... (To be continued.) )
