Chapter 315 Boss Information, Three Directions

"You inquire about me? Want to see me? I can give you a chance. ”

This is a short message with no beginning and no end, and it is sent from an unfamiliar number, and for ordinary people, it is generally deleted as a spam text message. But when Li Yan looked at it, he understood that this was not a spam text message, it should have been sent by 'him'!

Top dog!

The mysterious man who has always been a shadow for him and has also changed the trajectory of his life.

For the boss, Li Yan once felt very impressed, and he couldn't forget that face. But he didn't know when he found that what he remembered was a completely blurry face, and he didn't remember clearly what the boss looked like.

Or, what makes her forget and blur is not time, but thoughts! At first, he thought that it was the boss who deceived and kidnapped him. The person who fooled him at the beginning was the boss behind the scenes.

It wasn't until I finished my training and debuted to become an excellent killer, and then I learned and came into contact with the existence of the eighth and ninth children, the third child, the fourth child, the fifth child, the sixth child and other people, only to realize how naïve it was to remember that person and try to take revenge!

The boss behind the scenes, who can cultivate so many people, will he fool him personally?

He, Li Yan, was not the heir chosen by thousands of people, but just one of the candidates in the killer cultivation plan, one of the man's multiple cultivation plans! Others with him. All picked out in this way, and they all died, before starting, dead human roots

Ben doesn't have a fixed number, and it could be him!

It was probably from that time that Li Yan realized that being selected among ordinary people could be regarded as special, but with hundreds of candidates in the killer cultivation program and others in other fields at least one of the thousands, he was not special, of course

No, the boss behind the scenes went to "interview" him personally. Even if he will become a special member, it is not at the moment when he is chosen, but after he has undergone brutal training, completed rounds of life and death exams, and finally won!

Since the person who came to him in the first place was not the boss behind the scenes, there was no point in remembering that image.

After that, he survived to the end among hundreds of trained juvenile killers and became the seventh recognized by everyone. It's just that for many years, the boss hasn't met him individually or directly, or even contacted him!

And now he's getting a text message like this: 'You want to ask me? Want to see me? From these two clues, he instinctively knew that the news was sent by the mysterious boss behind the scenes, and he would know this, it may be that the third Zheng Yixuan had reported it to him!

Putting aside the revenge psychology of the early years, approaching and solving the possible shadow and hidden danger of the boss is also something that Li Yan has considered for several years, and now he can finally get personal contact with 'him', which makes him feel shocked and excited. How can you be in the mood to listen to the content of everyone's meeting at this time, he

He made a gesture to continue the discussion, and left the conference room with his phone.

When he walked to the pantry, he couldn't bear to call this unfamiliar number.

Soon, he got a disappointed, but expected, result - the other party did not answer and hung up his phone.

Li Yan, who was in the pantry, looked at his mobile phone and waited directly.

Again, as he expected, a short message was received on his phone.

"You don't have to look for me, I have time, it's arranged, I'll naturally look for you, now you're a little troublesome, let's solve it first."

Looking at this short message, Li Yan pondered for a while, did not reply to the message, and did not call again. Since 'he' doesn't want Jean to find it, he will definitely be fully prepared, and if he wants to track the mobile phone signal and the like, he can find the best helper, which is undoubtedly Lao Jiu Guan Ziyi. can

How could Lao Jiu help him track down the traces of the boss?

Can Lao Jiu cultivate it, there should be talents in this area around the boss, right?

It's been so many years, and he is not in a hurry, since the boss has already contacted him, I believe that it won't be long before there will be a chance to meet.

It's just that.......

Li Yan suddenly felt a little dazed!

For this behind-the-scenes boss, he was in the first few years of training, with one after another, batch after batch of trainees, who died due to unbearable training, died due to internecine exams, and there was no hope of going home to live, only to train desperately and kill desperately!

Kill! Kill! There was no other hope, and he was very resentful at that time.

In the next few years, when he climbed to the pinnacle of his killer career, he watched ordinary people like ants under him; Looking at the strong people among ordinary people, they are also waiting to be slaughtered like chickens in front of themselves, and I feel that there will be some changes. and the forces and identities that made him, including the beginning

All resources come from that boss, just like Zheng Yixuan said, without 'him', they wouldn't be able to achieve everything they are today, and they would be out of the crowd.

One will be successful, and ten thousand bones will wither.

Whether it is the side of the king or the side of defeat, whether it is the glory of success or the tragedy of unrewarded ambition...... Generals will not take revenge on their eternal soldiers. To die is to die, and to survive is to live.

In any case, he stepped on blood and corpses to fight his way out and fight to the top. And surviving and struggling in purgatory, the mentality will slowly change after all.

Later, he wanted to get rid of the boss's control, or be completely free. Although the boss doesn't have many restrictions on him, he doesn't even ask him how much money he pays every year and how much he must do, just as a knife on standby, he doesn't just have freedom,

Even the organization is "them" has freedom.

But with strong strength and self-confidence, a person who has stepped on the peak of a killer and kills people like a bag will be willing to be a knife? Li Yan will think of retiring and want to live an ordinary life, this decision, he wants to do it himself, not after making it, he still needs people

Approve!

Over the years, he has wondered how many times he has thought about what he would say to 'him' if he met him, how he would react, what questions he would want to ask and what requests he would make.

But now, the opportunity to have a dialogue has come, but Li Yan feels a little dazed. Maybe...... This is a mantra-like existence for him, which is his goal and his motivation, once he meets face, without that mysterious pressure, will he really be happy, right?

"Heh、、、、 what are you thinking about? Isn't this a haven't met? Even if he saw him, he might not be willing to let me go, and he would even be very dissatisfied with this provocation, which would lead to war, which would be a troublesome thing. ”

Li Yan secretly laughed at himself, put aside his thoughts in this regard and let it be!

The first message was deleted, and when the second message was deleted, he frowned a little.

The first words are easy to understand, but the latter words, what do they mean?

"Now you're in a little trouble yourself, let's get rid of it first."

What's my little trouble? I don't know how smooth it is now...... Li Yan thought quickly. He didn't think it was meaningless, even if it was the third child, he wouldn't make more meaningless jokes, let alone the boss who had a conversation with him with great difficulty?

To be able to enter the eyes of 'him' and be reminded by 'him', even the so-called "small troubles" must be very important for ordinary people!

Could it be the South Korean side?

It's impossible, even if it's powerful, it won't cause much trouble to "their" organization, and he hasn't had the intention of making a move, so it's not enough to get the boss to pay attention.

Li Yan closed his eyes, thought about all aspects of the New Year, and randomly realized something.

Is this the thing?

Maybe it's a little bit of trouble...... But if you want to solve it, it's easy!

When Li Yan returned to the conference room, everyone was still in full swing to express their opinions, but he was no longer in the mood to listen, so he asked everyone to follow the direction and carry out a more in-depth investigation, using data to support everyone's suggestions.

As he was about to end the meeting, Qiao Pan said he still had something to say.

There are not many employees in the company now, basically Li Yan came in before he came to be the manager, and he recruited him, that is, Zeng Zixi, who studied marketing, and the rest is Qiao Pan, although it was not long before,

No small groups were formed, and no one was dissatisfied with him. I don't care about any lineage or anything like that, but Qiao Pan is undoubtedly a really qualified insider, and compared to him, others are somewhat on paper, or relatively shallow.

Therefore, Li Yan naturally attaches more importance to his opinions and suggestions.

"I have two suggestions, the first is about DVD copyright, although in terms of the current domestic piracy market, the interests in this area are insignificant, but mosquitoes are sucking meat and can they come out or sell it."

"That's natural, because the time and environment are inconvenient for audiences to watch movies, there are still people who will buy genuine discs to watch, it's just a matter of how much." Li Yan nodded.

"Here, I want to first confess a crime to Mr. Li and all my colleagues." Qiao Pan stood up and bowed to everyone.

When everyone looked at each other and was inexplicable, he said one by one: "In fact, after the launch conference of our film, the producer of the impression contacted the crew to talk about the purchase of DVD copyrights." After all, there are so many celebrities involved, and there is also a certain market, in addition to the audience, there are also fans

Silk purchase collection. But at that time, I refused to talk in detail on the grounds that the filming was not finished, and when the film was finished and the film was ready to be released, several companies approached me to negotiate to buy the copyright. But I politely declined......"

"Why?" Don't want Li Yan to ask this question, Jiang Xueyin can't wait for the strong man to ask it.

She is in charge of finance, and she really doesn't understand Qiao Pan's behavior of pushing off interests, copyright transactions are different from the box office, and the total box office income that audiences spend money to buy, after deducting taxes and special funds for films from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, cinema cinemas should be divided into at least half of the distributors, and the distributor is taking a few percent

The filmmaker is generally between, and a rough calculation is that it is good to be able to get four achievements.

The copyright transaction is generally in the form of a buyout, so it is not linked to the sales volume, 500,000, 1 million or more, it is all pure income.

Although the box office has made a lot of money now, as Qiao Pan himself said, mosquito legs are thin and meat.

Qiao Pan looked at everyone's puzzled expressions and said with a wry smile: "If it had been sold at that time, maybe there would have been no such box office results now." Small and medium-sized investment films, because of the high pressure at the box office, often sell all kinds of copyrights as much as possible and subsidize the cost as much as possible, while DVD manufacturers also need to grab customers when they spend money

The source will basically rush to go on the market, and the movie will be released as soon as it is released, and the pirated version will be followed up immediately on the Internet, and there will be a transcription of the clear version of the DVD download, which is a fatal blow for a romance film that does not rely on stunts and visual effects, and many couples who come out to shoot and drag will be in the theater

will choose to download and watch. ”

Everyone suddenly realized that he was indeed for the results of the movie.

"Wait until after the next film to talk about DVD rights, it must be much cheaper. I also fought at that time, if the box office was good, it didn't matter, if the box office was bad, then I would lose money for the company. "Qiao Pan, who sat down, felt fortunate not to be dishonored.

"But what we observed was that in the last week, there were already pirated DVDs on the market, and there were also downloads on the Internet. It's not a gun version either, where did they come from? Zeng Zixi asked the mystery in his heart.

Qiao Pan smiled: "Back then, in order to prevent piracy, "Hero" once appeared in the theater to check the audience's belongings. It is forbidden to bring DV or the like into the venue. But now the times are different, and there is no market for pirated copies filmed in theaters, which are the so-called 'preemptive editions' and 'grabbing editions'

Finish. This has a lot to do with the fact that the producer needs to sell the copyright. The reproduction and transcription based on the genuine DVD are all clear versions.

Large companies and large productions also sell copyrights, but the contract specifies the time of listing, and it is forbidden to preemptively go public, but it is provided to the pre-production of video companies

Viewing the version, there will also be pirated copies, but it will generally be rougher; Now the pirates are all operated by themselves and contracted cinemas, in second-tier cities. The main digital theater is not large. In this way, pirates can get digital copies of the film

In a few days after its release, it can create a relatively clear pirated version to go public and grab money. There is no need to buy theaters and copy insiders in the past. ”

Everyone is speechless, when the hands of pirates have penetrated into regular theaters, how to prevent theft?

Qiao Pan sighed: "There is no way, if it is profitable, someone will pirate." Even more so on the Internet, pirates pay a few cents to buy VIP chapters, then publish pictures, or use software to extract text versions, but advertise that they are hand-typed out of love and exchange. Where they are more ruthless is. electricity

No matter how pirated or downloaded the movie, everyone knows that the genuine version is in the cinema. And online piracy sites. Each advertises that they are the first sites. However, many readers don't know where the original version is......"

Li Yan interrupted Lao Qiao's emotion: "Before the increase in national income, especially the change in consumption concepts, this is a reality that cannot be changed. As creators, we should not complain about these things, but should think more about how to make good works and let the audience enter the movie willingly

Courtyard. Even if you watch pirated copies, you are willing to go to the cinema to buy tickets to support! When you let the audience or readers enjoy it, others will give it back. "Avatar" is to make people willing to buy tickets. As long as the Internet makes readers like it, I believe that no matter how much the pirated website is covered, the readers will also

You can find a genuine first station to support the author. ”

Qiao Pan listened and was silent for a while, and then suddenly became enlightened. "Mr. Li, your words make me pause! I've failed a few times before. Although I reviewed my mistakes, I still felt that if it weren't for piracy, it wouldn't be so bleak. Especially the success of this one,

It makes me feel that if it works well and minimizes piracy, the box office will be good. Now I understand why there is also piracy, other people's box office can be better, and the movie is the key! ”

"Old Joe, you think that this time the film is very fast, and the time is shorter than what you were prepared for. But in fact, you have been preparing for a long time, and you have spent more time in the past few months, and you must have had more movies before. You, Director Zhou, the crew, and the company are all attentive

Make this movie, and the audience will buy it. ”

Li Yan felt a little embarrassed, and felt that it was a bit pretentious to talk like this, after all, Qiao Pan was older and had more experience in the industry than him. Maybe...... It's called bystander clearing!

"You're right, I need to make a second suggestion even more!" Qiao Pan's face was straight, and he lost a trace of pride and ambition because of Chunguang's success, and became more calm, "Chunguang's return rate is very high, but the total profit is not large. We have the Paradise Group behind us and won't think

If you want to make a lot of money, you still have to invest in making blockbusters. And blockbusters, in addition to operation, have a top priority - the script! ”

Zhang Yimou's "Hero" created the era of domestic blockbusters, but every year's blockbusters are good at the box office, average in reputation, or even very poor. The three major directors have all appeared in blockbusters, and their reputations are far inferior to their other films. Especially "Wuji" directed by Chen Kaige, which is made of domestic production

The word-of-mouth of the film has reached a level. This situation was not until "Casting the Name", "Assembly Number", "Ip Man", etc., that the blockbuster word-of-mouth applauded, and then a large number of domestic blockbusters were criticized as bad films, and it was not until "Let the Bullets Fly" that it was truly achieved at the box office and word-of-mouth

Harvest.

“…… The word-of-mouth of domestic blockbusters, I don't need to say it, everyone knows it. And why the bad reputation? It's not that the picture is ugly, it's not that the special effects are fake, it's not that the acting skills are poor, most of it is poor in the plot and story. That's the problem with the script! Whether original or adapted,

Whether it is a famous screenwriter or a famous writer, what we lack is a wonderful story with sincerity.
