Chapter 130: Expansion

On June 30, Lao Xu's "Dream into Reality" was released.

This movie, which was supposed to be released on the same day as the stone in its previous life, set sail alone this time.

In the previous life, "Dreams into Reality" was widely praised, and the stone was still in obscurity at that time, so Xu Jinglei was the protagonist at that time.

Now it's different, the stone has been painted, Da Vinci has also been painted, and dreams are still the protagonists.

Wang Meng attended the premiere and met Zhou Gongzi, who has been a little estranged recently, and her little tail Zhao Liying.

At the same time, Wang Shuo, the screenwriter of "Dreams into Reality", was also present.

Wang Meng also saw that Zhou Gongzi and Wang Shuo were talking very happily, and Wang Meng was a little worried about this scene.

It seems that the two made their relationship public in 07 in the previous life, but Wang Meng doesn't know when it started. I thought, is this the way it starts now?

However, isn't there a scandal with Wang Zhonglei this year?

It won't be his own reason, nothing is wrong with Wang Zhonglei, right? However, Wang Meng just thought about it and didn't say anything?

Everyone has their own rights, so why should they manage so much?

After the premiere, Lao Xu asked Wang Meng's opinion.

Recently, Wang Meng has been giving opinions to others again, and he has been a little depressed.

It's really troublesome to be a money-making director and producer.

Think about it, there are a few directors who can be called profitable directors in 06, Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou, and Wang Meng.

The movies of these three people have always made money, even if Wang Meng only filmed one and produced one.

This is not China in a few years.

Chinese films, which are in the midst of change, are changing from the supremacy of art to the mission of making money.

Now a money-making director is very popular.

And it will become more and more popular in the future, and it is also from now on that many directors in Hong Kong are officially favored by mainland film companies.

Although there have been Hong Kong filmmakers who have gone north for a long time, except for a few directors, there are really no famous ones.

It wasn't until after 05 that domestic films began to rely on commercial films to drive the total box office, and Hong Kong filmmakers began to rise officially.

If you want to say where the director in China has the most experience in making money, it must be a Hong Kong director.

It's like Wang Meng at this moment.

Opinions are very important, and Xu Jinglei can't ask too much.

Wang Meng had no choice but to compare the previous life, coupled with the situation in the release period of the previous life, to give Xu Jinglei an explanation.

Wang Meng remembers that the box office of the dream in the previous life was not high, but I don't remember how much, it should not exceed 20 million.

The total investment of this "Dream into Reality" has reached 6 million, and it should be barely able to recover the cost with the surrounding area, so don't think about making money.

So after Wang Meng gave an analysis, Xu Jinglei said: "I'm relieved when you say this, not every movie is like your stone." In this way, I can participate in "Wounded City" without distractions. ”

As soon as Xu Jinglei said this, Wang Meng understood.

Lao Xu seemed to have a lot of ambition at that time, but she saw that this movie did not have the elements of a blockbuster.

But I don't give up, I want to see Wang Meng's opinion.

After Wang Meng gave an answer, he was completely relieved.

can star in "Wounded City" wholeheartedly.

"Directed by Liu Weiqiang and Mak Zhaohui, Tony Leung, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Shu Qi and the one starring you?" Wang Meng asked.

Among them, there are idols from their previous lives, but the two have not met in this life.

"Yes, it's the two directors of "Infernal Affairs", and I have hope for that movie." Xu Jinglei is also excited to participate in such a movie.

Wang Meng knew that in the previous life, "Wounded City" was also a good movie, and the box office in the mainland also reached more than 70 million.

As expected, it will be released by the end of this year.

It's just that the miracle of Infernal Affairs is not repeated.

The two talked for a while, Wang Meng jokingly said that he asked for Tony Leung's autograph, and Xu Jinglei said that there was no problem.

And, during the conversation between the two, Zhou Xun and Zhao Liying on the side looked here from time to time.

"Sister Xun, are you having a conflict? What's wrong? Zhao Liying is not stupid, she knew from that day that the relationship between the two was not ordinary, and she had an inexplicable closeness to Wang Meng.

Whether it's because Wang Meng saved her, or because of the idol.

Zhou Xun was a little embarrassed when he heard Zhao Liying's words, as if his heart had been broken, so he said, "What do children know?" There is no contradiction at all, just friends, you think so much. ”

Zhou Xun defended, but found Zhao Liying's suspicious gaze.

He also said: "But you have to work hard, it's best to snatch him from which woman, Sister Xun will give you ideas." Besides, what a good fairy tale is for a hero to save beauty, isn't it? Be strive. ”

This sentence completely surrendered what Zhao Liying said, after all, she was young.

And Zhou Xun looked at the shy Zhao Liying, and was amazed, it seemed that he was told by himself, this little girl does have a crush on Wang Meng.

That guy is really good at womanhood, but his age gap is too big.

Zhou Xun suddenly felt that he was born at the wrong time, I was born before I was born, and I was old when you were born! When I have long hair and waist-length, you wear open crotch pants.

Creation makes people......

In early July, Wang Meng returned to DreamWorks.

After a new round of capital injection, the stone is divided down.

A new round of DreamWorks expansion began, improving many departments.

The newly established finance department, music department, creative department, artist department, security department and other departments, the early stage of the old staff are almost all independent talents.

Including, production department, external relations department, publicity department, public relations department, review, planning, execution, photography and a series of other departments.

Zhao Jisen and Zhang Lantian were officially promoted to deputy managers of DreamWorks.

Zhao Jisen is in charge of human resources, financial audit, company budget, execution ability, legal and other work. Former liaison Yu Long became Zhao Jisen's general, in addition to assisting Zhao Jisen's work, he also worked part-time as a planner.

Zhang Lantian is in charge of outreach, publicity, public relations, artists and other departments. The previous outreach Fu Qiang is now Zhang Lantian's right-hand man, in charge of the departments under Zhang Lantian's jurisdiction, as well as planning and so on.

Of course, it's not that four people are in charge of so many departments, but they are temporarily part-time. Each of these departments has its own supervisors, and the four of them are nothing more than integrated scheduling, rather than direct supervision.

When DreamWorks expands again, it will be the time when the four of them will officially go from being in charge to managing people.

Now this is also done for the convenience of handover, and by the way, bring the newly recruited staff.

The finance department is not Zhou Hui alone, Zhou Hui was promoted to financial manager, and is only responsible for Wang Meng.

Wang Peng is much more pure, like Ning Hao and others, he is not in charge of any department, just a director.

The experience of the newly established artist department is a female general, named Wu Juan in her forties, who was introduced by the third master. Wu Juan has the courage of the Iron Lady.

It took more than a week to simply recruit the artist department and agents, most of whom were her former apprentices and subordinates.

Now DreamWorks can barely be regarded as artists is Huang Bo and Guo Tao, plus Jiang Shuying.

Ning Hao and Wang Meng only serve as directors. So the current DreamWorks Artist Department is still very immature.

However, Wang Meng thought about it, and after a while, he pulled Chen Chichi, Zheng Kai, Li Jinming and other students who were in the play in.

In addition, the article, Tang Yan, Bai Baihe, Zhao Liying, and Yang Ying can't be missed.

Presumably, these future big stars will not refuse.

Wang Meng is not professional in management, so he fully knows people and is good at his duties, and handed over the work to Zhao Jisen and Zhang Lantian.

I just met with the new employees, and it took me three days to get to know the newly formed department, and then I went back to the capital.

And, "Struggle" is coming to an end.
