Chapter 6 Japan

Shen Chong came to Boston, not simply to bring Li Kaiyuan to meet the elders, he also had some other things

There is a movie line that says it well - where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

After the outbreak of the "Beautiful Island" incident, Taiwanese immigrants and students in the United States were divided into several factions, some supporting the Kuomintang, some supporting "Beautiful Island," some supporting reunification, and some supporting self-reliance......

Bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods have appeared, in Los Angeles on the west coast, the most eye-catching is Xu Xinliang, the president of the "Beautiful Island" magazine, when the incident broke out, he happened to be on vacation in the United States and escaped prison, he is a relatively firm unification faction, so Shen Chong is not stingy with sponsorship, supporting him to re-run "Beautiful Island" in Los Angeles, of course, the sponsorship is in the name of a leather bag foundation, the way is very secret.

In Boston on the East Coast, the person who received the most attention from Shen Chong was Ma Jiuying, who was studying for a doctorate at Harvard University at this time, and was the editor-in-chief of the "Boston Journal", which was a publication with the official background of the Kuomintang.

Ma Jiuying's background, education, ability, charm, and interpersonal relationships are not lacking, no matter whether he can sit in the so-called "president" position in the future, he is a talent worth encompassing, besides, for a crossing party, training Ma Niangniang is a very interesting thing, more interesting than training a hundred beauties

Finding Ma Jiuying is not difficult for Shen Chong at all - his wife is Zhang Aijia's elementary school classmate, and she can get it with a phone call, and then set up a banquet to invite each other, and after a few conversations, they quickly got closer to each other.

In addition to Ma Jiuying, there are many outstanding Chinese media practitioners, and Shen Chong's Chinese news magazine in preparation needs such talents.

After a week in Boston, Shen Chong was content to board a flight – not to Hong Kong, but to Japan.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Li." Zeng Lizhen put down the welcome card in his hand, stepped forward and greeted with a smile: "Sister Tianbao, can I help you carry your luggage?" ”

"Sister Zhen, you don't have to worry about her." Zeng Lizhen was Shen Chong's earliest secretary, Li Kaiyuan naturally knew her, and she said with a smile: "There are only a few toys in her bag, which are very light." ”

"Yes, sister, it's very light." With her sister present, Tianbao has always been very well-behaved, she held up the cartoon bag she bought from Disneyland and said, "I can handle it." ”

Sitting in the car, on the way to the hotel, Shen Chong asked, "Sister Zhen, how was the conversation with Yamaguchi Baihui?"

"Mr. Shen, I was about to report to you." Zeng Lizhen drove the car and said: "Yamaguchi Baihui herself has no opinion, but her agency is too difficult. ”

"Sister Jane." Tianbao is a star chaser, she leaned on the back of the chair in the front row, and excitedly interjected, "Do you know Yamaguchi Baihui?" Can you take me to her? ”

"Tianbao, don't interject, Sister Zhen is talking about business." Li Kaiyuan pulled her back to the seat and advised: "How many times have you said it, don't lie on your stomach like this, it was like this last time, my head was broken, and I don't have a long memory."

"Sister, Momoeya Yamaguchi." Tianbao ignored the lessonδΈ¨ took her hand and said coquettishly: "When we watched "Blood Suspicion" together, you liked her, let's go and take a photo with her, okay?" ”

"Don't worry, after a while, she will go to Hong Kong to film, and you can take photos as much as you want when the time comes." Shen Chong rubbed her head dotingly and asked, "What does her economic company say?" ”

"They opened their mouths and asked for a salary of 3oo US dollars, and we are responsible for the accommodation expenses of Yamaguchi Momoe's assistants, makeup artists, and nannies." Zeng Lizhen was disgruntled, she complained: "Not only Yamaguchi Baihui, but also these entourages have to live in five-star hotels, and there must be independent rest rooms on the set, and there are a lot of conditions such as working only when they are UJ every day, which is annoying." Mr. Shen, why don't you transfer me back and negotiate with someone else? ”

Shen Chong laughed twice and said, "Let Yamaguchi Baihui play the heroine of "Die Hard", it is your mention, you are not responsible, who is responsible?" ”

"Mr. Shen, other conditions can be considered." Zeng Lizhen saw that there was no hope of substitution, so he asked instead: "But can you agree to a salary of $3oo dollars?" ”

"You measure this yourself, I don't care." Shen Chong crossed his arms and said: "The budget of "Die Hard" has been delegated to your production department, how to spend it, I won't interfere, and besides, it's not the first time you have been a producer, you should have a bill in your heart." ”

"Compared with "Die Hard", the movies I used to make were all children's plays." Zeng Lizhen said helplessly: "The cost of those dramas does not add up to 3oo US dollars. If I had given her $3oo, after the movie was released, I would have to jump into the sea in case of a loss. ”

"How can it be so strict." Shen Chong smiled and said, "Even if you lose, it's me, not you." ”

"Mr. Shen, in the company, I have been with you for the longest time, if things are messed up, how can I still have the face to live." At this time, there was a big traffic jam, Zeng Lizhen parked the car on the tail of the long dragon, and then turned around and said: "Mr. Shen, save me, or Mr. Li, give me some advice?" I'm going to die. ”

"I don't understand the movie, you have to ask him." Li Kaiyuan shirked with a smile and said: "Ah Chong is always like this, he starts with everything, uses his mouth to work, and then runs to play something else, regardless of whether his subordinates live or die." ”

"I have so many things to do, where can I take care of them?" Shen Chong made a helpless gesture and said: "Gary Kurtz is the executive producer, what does he say?" ”

"He said that he just came to the East and didn't know about the market of Japanese actors, so let me make up my own mind."

"Didn't he tell you that in Hollywood, there is a procedure for setting actors' salaries?"

"Having said that, it depends on the market influence of the actors and the predicted box office of the movie." Zeng Lizhen also smiled bitterly, she explained in detail: "Yamaguchi Baihui is very popular, is Japan's first national idol, according to the information provided by Fei Xiaodie, we predict that if she plays the heroine of "Die Hard", the box office in Japan should be between UUO million and 1OOUU US dollars, before her salary was less than 1oo US dollars, it is profitable to invite her to act, now it costs 3oo0,000, and after the box office is shared, we will lose a sum of money." ”

After finishing speaking, she folded her hands and begged: "Mr. Shen, you can do well, save me." ”

Shen Chong glanced at the endless Che Long, and then said with a smile: "Okay, for the sake of your loyalty, I will reluctantly teach you a trick." ”

"Brother-in-law, you're so shameless." Before Tianbao's words fell, she was slapped by Li Kaiyuan, and she immediately changed her words and said, "Brother-in-law, you are so handsome." ”

There was laughter in the car.

"Momoe Yamaguchi is very popular." After laughing, Shen Chong said: "Then her advertising fee must not be cheap, and there must be many companies looking for her to advertise, right?" ”

Zeng Lizhen nodded.

"Isn't that easy?" Shen Chong said: "You take the film plan of "Die Hard", find a few companies that want to advertise, ask them to pay for sponsorship and pay for the film, and then we will use the footage of their products for a few Yamaguchi Baihui in the movie. ”

Zeng Lizhen was thoughtful, and Li Kaiyuan asked in surprise: "Is this okay?" ”

"Absolutely." Shen Chong said, for example: "For example, your toy company pays 1o yuan for a salary, then I will put a Rubik's cube on Yamaguchi Baihui's desk in the movie, if you pay 5o yuan, then I will give her a shot of playing the Rubik's Cube in the movie, if you pay 1oo yuan, I not only let her play the Rubik's Cube, I also let her say one or two lines related to the Rubik's Cube, if you pay 3oo yuan, I not only let her say the lines, I also set the Rubik's Cube as a key prop in the electricity." ”

"We have the producers of Star Wars, a professional special effects team in Hollywood, the explosion of the tallest building in Asia, a Japanese national idol, an investment of up to $1ouu, and it will be released on a large scale in Japan and the United States." Shen Chong wrenched his fingers and said: "There are so many gimmicks, the market influence will definitely not be low, the advertising effect is better than that of the TV station, and the coverage of more groups, you say, are those companies interested?" ”

At this time, the marketing method of built-in advertising in the movie cannot be said to be absent, but even in Hollywood, it is only occasionally done and is not systematic, so Shen Chong's words made Zeng Lizhen suddenly, and she admired the five-body throwing to the ground, and said with her eyebrows fluttering: "Mr. Shen, you are so powerful, you really deserve to be the reincarnation of the God of Wealth." ”

Shen Chong just smiled at this, he said: "I build yΓ¬ you find two or three companies, too much will ruin the plot of the movie, it is best to transnational clothing, beverages, electrical appliances and other trendy brands, easy to stuff the movie, and their annual advertising budget is very high, easy to talk about, such as Coca-Cola, Sony, Panasonic these rich masters." ”

"That's what Mr. Shen said." Zeng Lizhen took out a pen and paper from her pocket and said, "I'll write it down first, and I'll start talking to them tomorrow." ”

Shen Chong waited for her to finish writing her experience before continuing: "Sister Zhen, don't you blame me for demoting you, right? ”

"How can I be?" Zeng Lizhen hurriedly said: "With Mr. Kurtz, I realized how bad I did at the beginning, and I can still stay in the company now, thanks to Mr. Shen for giving me the opportunity." ”

"Sister Zhen, you are too modest, the previous movies have done a good job." Zeng Lizhen is a descendant, so Shen Chong didn't hide it from her, and said: "Kurtz is a foreigner, he won't stay for a long time, you follow him, learn more about management, and when "Die Hard" is filmed, I will give you an independent production scene, and after he leaves, you will be the manager of the production department." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Shen."

"Of course, if Sister Zhen has the intention of going out by herself." Shen Chong said with a smile: "When the time comes, tell me in advance, and I will support it." ”

Mr. Shen laughed. Zeng Lizhen immediately expressed his loyalty and said, "Unless Mr. Shen drives me away, I won't leave." ”

Tianbao Wu's big eyes turned around, and suddenly he said: "A person who is born as a brother-in-law is a ghost of his brother-in-law when he dies." ”

Note: I'm afraid of sensitive words, so Ma Niangniang's name changed the order.
