Chapter Ninety-Four: Two Films

There was a double knock on the door.

"Please come in!"

Ye Zhiming pushed the door and walked in.

"Chu Zai, how are you talking with the American company?"

"It's a good talk, the crisis has been determined to be introduced, thirty percent of the box office is shared, and the publicity costs are shared equally on both sides." Li Xuechu said with a smile: "Zhiming, now the North American market is also open. ”

"This result is not bad, I hope that the future will go smoothly."

Only when the box office is successful can the market really be opened, and there have been several movies Golden Harvest that have entered North America, but unfortunately they have never gained a firm foothold because of the unfavorable box office. This year, Golden Harvest will try again, using the hurricane rescue in cooperation with Oriental Hollywood.

Jiahe really used all his strength to support Chen Long, and he carried it on his shoulders and never slackened for more than ten years.

"That's good, the company is slowly on the right track so far." Ye Zhiming sighed. "The two major markets have been won, and the last big point/no/wrong/ticket warehouse is left in Japan, but I think it will only be a year or two."

"I guess so." Li Xuechu also agrees with this, the Asian market is actually more exclusive, and Xiangjiang itself is no exception, and the same is true for Japan. There was a boom in Japanese cinema more than a decade ago, and it exported its own films to all of Asia, but now it has been replaced by Xiangjiang. As a former film hegemon, the Japanese film industry may not have a good taste in its heart, but now there is no better way than to resist competitors entering the country.

Now the only one who can make movies smoothly enter the Japanese market is Golden Harvest.

"Zhiming, don't you think about it anymore? You also see the company's prospects, and it will only get better and better in the future. Isn't it a pity to give up at this time? ”。

Ye Zhiming hesitated. Still shook his head.

Li Xuechu didn't want to say anything, the company was on the rise. It is much better for people to let go at this time, and it is much better than those who do nothing now and only wait for the fruit to be picked later. In terms of interests, I actually didn't suffer a loss.

Ye Zhiming not to mention other aspects, his personal conduct is indeed worthy of praise, this is also the most regrettable place for Li Xuechu, a good partner is not so easy to find, and I don't know how many people have suffered in this regard.

Giving up the hope of persuading his friends to change his mind, Li Xuechu handed over two scripts.

"Is this your new work?"

"Yes, Zhiming, help me contact and operate."

"It's okay, but don't you plan to do it yourself? After all, it's not a lot of trouble. I'm going to leave in the future, and sooner or later, big and small affairs will have to be let go. ”

"Even if you leave, I don't plan to manage it myself, I'll still find someone else."

Ye Zhiming shook his head: "It's the happiest thing to cooperate with you, and you know how to delegate power." But be careful, the business circle in Hong Kong is not as disciplined as you think, and it is not the same as in the West. ”

"Thanks, I'll take note."

Li Xuechu actually believes in the system more than in people, and this is also because of this. It shows Ye Zhiming's preciousness. After the change, Li Xuechu had to find more eyes to look at here, just staring at the finance is not safe, and there are many "capable" managers who have the means to avoid and confuse this aspect of the personnel. even dragged them to dig up the company's assets together.

Under Ye Zhiming's persuasion, Li Xuechu withdrew the script. People are right, at least until a replacement comes up. It's better to do it yourself.

After Ye Zhiming left, Li Xuechu grabbed the phone and dialed Wang Fatzi's number.

"First boy. How did you come up with the idea of calling me? ”

"Can't you fight if you're fine?"

"Come less." After the last meeting at the hotel, the fat man is still haunted by it.

"Okay. It's something. Do you know the phone call of the director who filmed the mountain dogs two years ago? ”。

"What? Do you want to make a horror movie? Wang Fatzi was surprised.

"If I could, I would like to do all the genres. How, is there any? ”

"That person's name is Yu Yunhang, I just know someone, I don't know him well, I don't have his phone number, but I can help you ask."

"That's good, as much as possible."

"Okay, wait for my good news."

Waiting for the fat man to hang up the phone, Li Xuechu didn't hang up the phone, but broadcast another set of numbers.

"Hello?"

"Sister Xu, I'm Li Xuechu."

"Hehe, I heard that." Xu Anhua on the other end of the phone said with a smile: "Boss Li called me at this time, is there any good news for me?" ”

"There is a movie I want to ask Sister Xu for you to shoot, Sister Xu, are you free during this time?".

"Yes, the last movie was just finished, and now I'm looking for a new theme. Husband Li, did you write the script this time? ”。

"The outline and general plot have been written, and they still need to be handed over to the screenwriting team for polishing, but I think Sister Xu can take a look at it first."

"Okay, you're in the company, right? I'm coming right away? ”

A blind sound rang on the phone, and Xu Anhua hung up the phone.

Li Xuechu smiled and shook his head, this female director is a well-known workaholic, she has filmed several works non-stop in the past two years, and this time she just finished filming and went to the angry sea not long ago, and she was in a hurry to work again without resting. But fortunately, I don't have to find someone else.

In the past two years, the new wave of the Hong Kong film industry has sprung up many cutting-edge directors, but after a few years, they will either decline or be dyed into a model by commercial films, and the characteristics will be exhausted. Xu Anhua is almost the only one left in this movement.

The other is also a director who emerged from the New Wave, but historically, this local director who specializes in CU1T films switched careers to no longer make films after ten years. There is no way, Xiangjiang, which has few people in the city, can't give too many opportunities to directors with niche themes, and if you make one or two movies, you will face layoffs.

Xu Anhua drove over quickly, which is also a benefit of Xiangjiang, and the small local contact is also convenient.

The two have already worked together once, and there is not much to say hello when they work together, and they go straight to the point.

Li Xuechu handed over the script.

"Love Notebook?" Xu Anhua frowned slightly, as if he was not very satisfied with the name of the movie.

Although she is a female director, Xu Anhua's film style is not as graceful as that of ordinary female directors, and many of her works are not made by women just by looking at the director's name.

"Hehe, let's read the script first." This name is easy to mistake for Qiong Yao-style movies, and Taiwan has made many films of this type of theme in recent years. However, this kind of movie is popular in Taiwan, but it is not very popular in Xiangjiang.

Li Xuechu's choice was actually Zhang Wanting, who filmed the story of Ah Lang in later generations, but this female director has not graduated yet, and I remember that her graduation work did not come out until eighty-four years.

Xu Anhua looked at the script with a deep heart, and his brows slowly relaxed.

"It's a good story." After a long time, Xu Anhua put down the script and said.

"The time and space span of this story is quite large, although it is not too much of a problem to shoot in Xiangjiang, but I still hope to go to the magic capital to shoot, so that it looks more realistic."

Xu Anhua also nodded in agreement, unlike others, Xu Anhua did not avoid the north like some directors.

Adapted into an oriental version of this movie, Li Xuechu set the main scene in the magic capital before the anti-Japanese resistance, and then moved to Xiangjiang, avoiding the political factor. If he can, Li Xuechu also wants to operate the film for domestic screening.

"The script is good, I took it. When are you going to release this movie? ”

"Of course, this kind of love-themed movie is most suitable for screening on Valentine's Day." Li Xuechu said with a smile: "It's August, and there is still half a year before Valentine's Day, it should be in time, right?" ”

Xu Anhua lowered his head and estimated: "The time is a little rushed, I'll try my best, as long as there are no accidents, it will still be in time." ”

Li Xuechu smiled bitterly, if you change the fat man, you can shoot your chest in three movies in half a year, and you can guarantee that it will come in time. But it's okay, the good movies selected by later generations are really a bit violent when they are made bad, although the original work is no longer visible to people now, but Li Xuechu will still be a little unhappy.

"Try to hurry up, Sister Xu, there are not many works in our company, and if you don't find something to do, you will be idle."

"Then you, the boss, don't shoot a few more? You don't have to write it yourself, you can also buy other people's scripts and shoot them, as if your company has been shooting your own scripts so far. "I think it's a little strange for Xu Anhua, this company that has become famous in Xiangjiang is really unusual.

"You can consider it, Sister Xu, if you have any good scripts, you can also invest in it, our cooperation time is not short, I will consider giving you a preferential price."

"Thank you then, there will definitely be a chance in the future." Xu Anhua, who specializes in filming literary and artistic themes, is still quite short of investment, and there is no one who is unhappy to mention it with this big financier.

"Okay, that's it, happy cooperation!"

"Happy working together!"

One of the two movies is done, and the rest is easy to do.

Yu Yunhang's life may not be easy during this time, or the life of the New Wave director is not very good, Xu Anhua is the best one.

Someone asked him to direct, and the script was not bad, so there would be no problem if I thought about it. (To be continued......)
