Chapter 357: Advantage
After the Chinese New Year, Haomeng Company went to work normally, and the first thing was to officially introduce Yu Dong to the company's employees. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yu Dong is 26 years old this year, quite young, and when he first joins the company, he will not hold the position of general manager, but the head of the publicity and marketing department, and belongs to one of the management teams.
The company is currently divided into several large blocks, one is the creation department, which is the company's core business.
A film and television company can only be competitive if it has strong creative capabilities, and this department is in charge of Lin Zixuan.
The second major part is the publicity and distribution department, which is responsible for the publicity and distribution of the film in the later stage.
The marketing department is mainly responsible for advertising business and market research, analyzing audience preferences, and other film and television company trends.
This is followed by the back office, which includes finance and procurement, among others, to complement other departments.
Finally, there is another piece of artist agency, which has not yet developed, and only a few actors have been signed at present, such as Zhang Guoli, Liu Bai, Yu Feihong, Fu Biao, Zhang Hanyu and others.
Fu Biao and Zhang Han are the actors designated by Feng Xiaogang and are members of the Feng family class.
Others, such as Chen Daoming and Wang Zhiwen, although they have a good relationship, they all have a work unit and will not sign a contract with a film and television company.
The reason why it has not developed is that there are not many actors who have signed contracts, and the other is that the various configurations are not perfect.
As an agent, it is necessary to provide development planning and performance opportunities for its artists to protect the interests of artists from infringement.
This department is managed by Lin Zixuan, who uses his own actors in the films made by his company, or recommends these actors to appear in TV series made by the art center.
It's just that he is not good at how to be a broker, and he needs to find someone to be responsible for it in the future.
Yu Dong has half a year to familiarize himself with the business of Haomeng Company, and if he is competent, he will be promoted to the general manager of Haomeng Company.
This half a year is the inspection period, Lin Zixuan will not hand over the power to Yu Dong at the beginning, there must be a gradual process.
Yu Dong is quite interested in Haomeng Company, in the past, we were only cooperative, and we didn't know much about it, but now we can have a comprehensive understanding, but he will do his job first.
Publicity and distribution are familiar to him, and he has to formulate a suitable plan for each film.
After a few days of running-in, Yu Dong became familiar with his work.
He was surprised to find that there was still an online business in the marketing department of Good Dreams, a forum on film and television.
In the current domestic film industry, no company will pay attention to the Internet, they may not have linked movies and the Internet at all, or they may not know what the Internet is for.
Good Dream Company has already thought about using the Internet to do publicity, and the role may not be big now, but it will be difficult to say in the future.
As a young person, Yu Dong is also interested in the new thing of the Internet, and believes that more and more people will go online in the future, and the influence of the Internet will become greater and greater.
He seems to understand the reason for the success of Good Dreams, that is, thinking ahead.
When others didn't expect it, they thought of it, so they succeeded, which is not to say that they are creative, but they are good at learning and learning.
For example, Chinese New Year comedies, Xiangjiang has had this kind of film for a long time.
Filmmakers in the mainland can't watch this kind of film, but in the hands of Feng Xiaogang, it has become a Beijing-style comedy and is welcomed by the audience.
Speaking of online publicity, foreign countries already have a relatively mature model, but the mainland network has just developed.
One step more than others, so that the company has gained a great development advantage.
Lin Zixuan doesn't think there is much advantage, the society is developing rapidly, today's advantage may be caught up tomorrow, there will never be a shortage of smart people in this society.
The crew of "Spring in a Small Town" is going to Jiangnan.
At this time, it is still winter in the capital, and the south is already cold in spring, so it is a good time to shoot this film.
The company found several cars, one of which was loaded with antique furniture worth millions, the actors and crew members were in a business bus, and a van was loaded with filming equipment.
The preliminary preparations for this film have been completed, and the next step is to start shooting.
There was also a Japanese accompanying him, that is, Lin Zixuan met Shozo Ichiyama at the Tokyo Film Festival, who was interested in this film and came to visit the class.
During the filming of a film, it is normal for some interested directors or filmmakers to come over to visit the class.
Internationally, the organizing committee of the film festival will send filmmakers to various countries every year to do this kind of selection work, and when they encounter particularly good films, they will recommend them to the organizing committee of the film festival.
For example, "Sunny Day", it was the French filmmaker who asked Louis to recommend it to the Italian Marc Muller, which entered the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival.
These filmmakers pay more attention to the works of famous directors, and at the same time, they do not let go of some potential directors.
As a fifth-generation director, Tian is known for his unique style and has a certain influence in the international film industry, so it is not surprising that he has attracted the attention of Shozo Ichiyama.
Lin Zixuan planned to send "Spring in a Small Town" to the Venice Film Festival, and greeted Mark Muller in advance.
Mark Mueller is a Chinese national expert, in the 70s he went to Beijing to study, he was very yearning for Chinese culture, he studied anthropology at that time, and later saw Chinese films, and developed a strong interest in films.
As a result, he got acquainted with filmmakers in China at that time, including the fourth and fifth generations of directors.
After returning to Italy, Mark Müller gave up his old job to concentrate on the study of cinema, and became a famous European filmmaker, serving as the chairman of many film festivals.
He was keen to introduce Chinese films to Europe, and it was he who introduced Zhang Yimou's films to Venice.
Since 1986, he has been a long-time selector for the Venice International Film Festival in Asia.
In other words, it is up to him to recommend whether films from Asia can participate in the main competition of the Venice Film Festival.
Since they met in Venice last time, Lin Zixuan told Mark Muller about the situation of "Spring in a Small Town", and the Italian filmmaker said that he would take time to come to China to see the film.
He admires Tian Xiangzhuang, and believes that Tian Xiangzhuang's films are very artistic and meet the selection requirements of the Venice Film Festival.
To put it bluntly, the international film festival still depends on relationships, it is easy to know people, at least the film is not a big problem to participate in the main competition unit, as for whether it can win the award, in addition to the quality of the film, it also depends on luck.
Lin Zixuan sent off the crew of "Spring in a Small Town" and returned home.
That night, a news was broadcast on the news that shook the whole country, the old man who had changed the face of the country had passed away, and it was less than five months before the return of Xiangjiang. (To be continued.) )
