Chapter 368, there is a specialization in the art industry

The progress from actor to producer is a qualitative leap, and it can never be said in the same day. Although she was worried that she was attracted to Mo Fei, Lin Qingxia still cared very much, and was not as indifferent as she was to the producer positions of other film companies.

Especially in a small environment like Hong Kong and Taiwan, it will be much more difficult to take this step than that of their American counterparts, not to mention that some people are also under the banner of filmmaking, which is basically just an errand runner, and has no actual nature of a producer at all.

For example, in the original films, the producers were basically Yifu and Fang Yihua, and others couldn't get involved at all, and they wouldn't let go of power. On the side of Xinyi City, Huang Baiming and others have the title of producer or producer, but in fact, the power is often in the hands of Lei Juekun, at least the producer's rights are incomplete.

In more small companies, the producer is just a name, and almost everything in the entire crew is handled by the director alone, as long as there are a few doglegs below to help say hello, there is still no problem.

The reason is simple, it is true that Hong Kong films are booming, but this prosperity is only in the hands of a few. In addition, the distribution scope of Hong Kong films is actually not large, the largest market is Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the channels are wider than in Asia, and there are very few films that can be distributed to Europe and the United States, and they are basically not profitable, so many crew positions are not difficult.

But Phoenix Culture is different, Hong Kong is just a starting point for Phoenix Culture, and the real market is on a global scale, with the increasing number of films produced by the company. It is certainly impossible for one person to control everything, and the producer of this kind of company has to be exposed to a lot of actual business.

From the selection of the script to the preparation of the crew. to the selection of actors, as well as the management and supervision of the filming process, including the post-production release, etc., all of which have to be operated in person.

Another point is that Phoenix Culture is obviously playing the general pattern of global development, taking the route of the traditional Hollywood eight companies, and the company is a complete set of film markets within the company. There are so many places where you can use your means.

In other words, at this level of film companies, the producer talent is a veritable producer. The producer of a movie. is the boss of the movie, who can decide almost everything about the film.

In such an environment, as long as you are deep enough, the boss is at ease with you. It is even possible to participate in some of the company's overall affairs for a certain period of time. If you can be a producer for a long time. is almost the top of the company, and an actor who does the ultimate is probably like this, in fact, he is not less powerful and less than the power and face of the average film company boss.

If Phoenix Culture can develop benignly for a few years and reach the scale of the eight major Hollywood companies, as one of the producers, it will be more powerful than film company bosses like Yi Yifu and Zou Wenhuai.

Phoenix Culture has attracted a lot of attention now, let's take a more important movie as an example, "Heart Thief" is a new movie that Phoenix Culture is preparing to launch. After a meeting and discussion, Xu Anhua, the best director of the Berlin Film Festival, was selected to direct, and the next step was to start a series of work.

If you have to put the power down completely. Then the producer of this film can first choose the right crew from inside or outside the company. Because Phoenix Culture and Xu Anhua are too famous, participating in such a crew will definitely enhance their fame and strength, so there will be many people competing for every position, even if it is an ordinary crew, there will be a large number of people competing to make money.

At this time, the status of the producer is manifested, he can choose all the candidates, including the use of all actors, the director has to listen to the producer's opinion, if the producer does not agree, then the actor has no chance. This is why in the American entertainment industry, many actresses will give the producer unspoken rules, rather than being directed by the unspoken rules, and the audition sofa is more often placed in the producer's office.

In the process of film production, all the main links must be involved in the producer, the work of the post-production and distributor, as well as the selection of advertising sponsors, etc., are all within the scope of the producer's power, the greater the influence of the film, the greater the producer's energy, the ancestors of Phoenix Culture are not small companies, and their works are not the products of small workshops.

Of course, Lin Damei is not going to use the power of the producer to uncover the rules of the actor, but to reflect his own value and show his ability in more aspects.

After Lin Qingxia left, Mo Fei also began to think about which brand this "Fashion Witch" should cooperate with, whether it was the partner of the original history of the 21st century, that is, Prada mentioned in the original work, or choose another brand to cooperate with.

The difficulty of this choice does not come from Mo Fei's pickiness, or the brand problem of this era, and even in Mo Fei's opinion, Prada's brand style is the most suitable for this film, even if Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Dior and other brands are better than Prada in many aspects of history and connotation.

What makes it really difficult for Mo Fei to decide is how to cooperate with his next big layout through this cooperation and complete his domination of the big entertainment industry.

This question has been bothering Mo Fei since he planned to shoot this Chinese version of "The Devil Wears Prada", but helplessly, it is difficult to find a person to discuss these things, and his ambition is too big, so big that it is almost unbearable for people in today's era.

But the filming schedule of the film is gradually approaching, and if you want the film to be released in January 87, you must select a partner before June, leaving at least three months or so for negotiation, otherwise once the time does not cooperate, you will face a very passive situation.

He has thirty years more experience than the people of this era, which can keep Mo Fei ahead of the overall situation, and in many details of operation, he himself is not much better than the people of this era, and even some elites are much better than him.

Take Dai Caishen as an example, it is not only to know the general trend and data of some stocks and futures markets, but when you really actually operate the transaction, you can only follow your own memory one by one, and if you want to maximize the benefits, you have to be a master like Dai Mozhen to play.

It turns out that it is impossible for one person to do everything well, so he twisted his eyebrows and thought about it for half an afternoon, but he didn't come up with a result. Looking at a few blank sheets of paper on the table full of various advantages and disadvantages, needs, trends and other rules and regulations, Mo Fei decisively made the choice to give up, this matter has to be solved by more professional, at least more professional people than themselves.

If you think about it, you won't change it, and if you settle down, you will do it, Mo Fei immediately called He Chaoqiong to make an appointment for dinner, and by the way, she asked for advice, which made Miss He really happy, and finally had a difficult thing that could not be solved and needed her own help.

He Chaoqiong's solution is very simple, after understanding Mo Fei's various conditions and worries, as well as her future development plans, she first expressed her surprise and admiration for Mo Fei's ambition, and then pointed out the most suitable partner she thought was the most suitable partner - Prada.

She believes that Prada has just recovered some resentment after experiencing a crisis on the verge of bankruptcy, and needs an opportunity to open up the market and strengthen the brand concept, and such a movie is exactly what the other party dreams of, as long as the offer is not too outrageous, it will never refuse.

And not like other brands, it's the time when the scenery is limited. Although it is also profitable to cooperate with a film that can be regarded as a brand promotion, their demand is not the strongest, and some can even be said to be not very strong, and such a cooperation is simply not likely to maximize the benefits.

Secondly, if it can add a force to Prada, who has not yet recovered his strength, through a movie, and promote his faster recovery, it will also be a great help to the reputation of Phoenix Culture.

When Prada recovers quickly, he can be the bad boy who disrupts the balance and rules of the market at the same level, which will be of great benefit to other brands in the future, and with fame and strength, it will be easier for those brands to accept.

Miss He really did not disappoint, she is worthy of being a master of the planning business of the Greater China region who founded a public relations company in her twenties and won countless big brands, but in less than half an hour, she solved the problem that had plagued the talented man for nearly half a year, and it was effortless.

It also made Mo Fei have to sigh that "there is a precedence in hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry", the current situation of those international brands, and what are the development trends, etc., are by no means what he, a guy who is infinitely close to a layman, can understand.

Of course, what I received was not all a signal of a blow, and there were some things that were gratifying. After He Chaoqiong solved the problem, she casually asked a question: "Are you going to make this film, is it aimed at Sing Tao Newspaper, will it be a little too much?" ”

In the world, it is called Mo Fei to iron for a while from psychology to body, and even He Chaoqiong, a person who knows part of the inside story, thinks so, so the misunderstanding in the outside world is not too big. With a little guidance, this film will definitely receive more attention than all previous similar films, at least among the movies that were released and started shooting at the same time.

Seeing Mo Fei smiling and shaking his head, He Chaoqiong knew that he had guessed wrong, and asked: "Then what is the purpose of your film, what does this magazine insinuate, will it be "Outside", should you want to attack "Outside"?" ”

He Chaoqiong really guessed this correctly, and the sales of "Outside" was one of his hidden purposes. This magazine can be said to be the only one in Hong Kong at present, and it is also the earliest fashion magazine, if you can get this magazine, it will be extremely beneficial to the development department of Phoenix culture, and at the same time, it can also practice your hands for future operations in Europe and the United States, so as not to plunge into it and see the direction clearly.

At that time, he will release the news of this film alluding to "Outside" through channels, drag this magazine into the water, and take advantage of the panic to capture this urgent pioneer who guides the petty bourgeoisie of Hong Kong's middle class in one fell swoop. (To be continued......)
