Chapter 419: If he wants 100 million, I'll give 100 million!
Li Qiangrose snorted lightly, and looked at Su Tiannian, who was sweating with a face full of face, and her tone was as cold as a knife.
"Mr. Furukawa, when are you qualified to advise me?"
"Remember your power, you only have the right to receive, not the right to advise!"
"If there is a next time, I can only think that you are not suitable for the current job!"
Lin Xiao glanced at the sneering Japanese and did not speak.
Su was covered with cold sweat.
At this moment, he wanted to slap himself a hundred times.
When Li Qiangrose's hand grabbed the bag and opened the door to leave, he thought that this script Warner would miss it, and he couldn't help but shout out without any concern.
He didn't know anything else, he just had a strange feeling. If Warner lets go of this film, I'm afraid it will regret it for a long time!
Li Qiangrose had already raised her leg again, and the door had been pushed open halfway.
"Wait a minute!"
If Su Qiannian was still unconscious last time, this time, he was really anxious.
Li Qiangrose's gaze is already like an iceberg for 10,000 years.
"Mr. Furukawa, I need an explanation!"
Su Qiannian's expression was very strange, his face was flushed, and he clenched his teeth.
Damn, it's all shouted, don't do it!
In a few seconds, his mood seemed to turn between heaven and hell, and finally gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Mr. Lin, this film, Time Warner will study it solemnly! I know you're not happy with what this film has to say! I promise you'll be satisfied! β
After speaking, he actually bent down his fat waist and bowed ninety degrees to Lin Xiao.
"Furukawa Twelve!" Li Qiangrose's teeth were gritted "gurgling", and the subordinates questioned the superiors in public! Also bow to your opponents! It's like slapping her in the face!
"Furukawa Twelve! I don't think you're fit to be the assistant to the vice president of Time Warner China! I will personally report to the President! You ......"
"Lady Camuery!" Su Tiannian turned around and bowed to the end, "Please ask Mrs. Camuel to give me another chance!" β
His voice was loud and revealed a hint of ...... Anxious.
Coupled with his flushed face and sincere eyes, Li Qiangrose instantly felt that something was wrong.
This sense of incongruity...... Could it be that I have overlooked something?
Her shocked gaze drifted to Lin Xiao, but what she saw was that the other party was confident.
She looked at Su Qiannian in front of her again, and her chest rose and fell sharply.
"Mr. Furukawa, you seem to have misunderstood something." Her face suddenly smiled like a flower, "The cooperation between Time Warner and Dawn is just the beginning, although it is not perfect, but there is also the possibility of cooperation." I'm just going to talk about it again. β
Although the words were blunt, they finally brought the atmosphere back a little.
Su Tian breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Mr. Lin, I will continue to report to the company. We will follow up and review your conditions. She nodded in a friendly manner and opened the door with Su Qiannian.
As soon as she left the box, her face suddenly turned cold.
"Furukawa Twelve, I hope you remember my nickname!" She gritted her teeth gently, "If you can't give me a perfect explanation!" I promise you won't be able to stay at Time Warner! β
"Of course, of course!" Su Qiannian wiped the cold sweat on his head again and again, quickly greeted the waiter, and asked for a free private room.
"Lady Camuel! Please agree to Mr. Lin's request! As soon as he entered, he bowed again ninety degrees, and his voice was full of determination.
"Why?" Li Qiangrose lit a thin cigarette gun and coldly spat out a puff of smoke rings.
"The shortcomings of this film, I said it clearly, what qualifications does Time Warner have to invest in it?"
"Movies that can't cater to the American market, why should I agree to his conditions?!"
"You're wrong!" Su Qiannian was short of breath: "This film may not be successful in supermarkets like Europe and the United States, but it is likely to have a great achievement in China and even the Asian market!" β
It was the first time he had faced the anger of the Iron Lady, and his confidence was a little lacking, and his voice had a hint of vibrato.
Without waiting for Li Qiangrose to be furious, he immediately continued while he still had the courage.
"Painting skin is a story that has been passed down in China for thousands of years! And this story has also spread to Japan, South Korea, and North Korea! The original work is from the Chinese classic masterpiece 'Liao Zhai Zhi Wei'. β
He glanced at Li Qiangrose, but the other party just nodded slightly and didn't say a word.
"Maybe you don't know about the strange things, but its fame is actually no worse than the four famous novels! It can be said that this is one of the most widely circulated folk tales in China! And in other countries covered by Chinese culture, it is also widely spread! β
Li Qiang's eyebrows raised, and she finally sensed that something was wrong.
This is a story that 1.3 billion people know!
She tapped the slender ivory cigarette gun in her hand and motioned to continue.
"But the reason why I risked my life to admonish. It's not because of the story of the painting itself! It's Lin Xiao's script! β
"His script is painted skin! It's not a painted skin! The rigor, story, and logic of the whole story comprehensively surpass the old printmaking skin! It's obviously a different story, but when you see the end, you immediately know that this is the painted skin! β
It's hard to explain, it's like a woman undressing through a screen window, you can never see it, but you know that she is a woman! A hazy, but very strong suggestion! I still haven't figured out how he revealed this psychological hint to me. β
"Painted skin." Li Qiangrose suddenly realized, and said categorically, "It's just painted skin!" The stunt of three painted skins in the script told all the audience from the beginning that this is a painted skin, but it is by no means the painted skin that used to be! β
"I see...... I wondered why I had to use this very expensive top-of-the-line special effect three times. It turned out to be imperceptibly hinting at the audience! The representative action of painting the skin, even the name of the story is called this, as soon as this iconic action comes out, all the audience will receive invisible psychological hints. I think...... It's not a paint...... This is the heart of the painting! β
She took a deep breath and a bright light appeared in her eyes, "Go on!" β
Su Qiannian hurriedly cleared his throat, "In Japan, there are many praises for chatting about different things. For example, the night walk of the hundred ghosts is to stand out from the strange tales of chatting about fasting. I may not be able to name this story at once, but seeing the name can definitely tell the story! β
When I saw it, I was immediately stunned by Lin Xiao's imagination. He almost completely subverted the image of the painted skin! Whether it's a person or a plot......"
This strong conflict between the old and the new makes this film actually very tense, but the tension of this story is limited to Asia! If you are familiar with this story, you will definitely fall for this imagination! Even if it doesn't, if you narrow it down, I think the Chinese audience will definitely buy it! β
"I see!" Li Qiangrose exclaimed and knocked on the table with a cigarette gun, "The old tree blooms with new flowers, and it is completely subverted, causing different differences in psychology and vision between the old and the new." β
"This is a film about cultural heritage. I don't understand, but I will understand it under the sphere of Chinese influence! β
"You're right, they're going to buy it. From the perspective of cultural inheritance alone, more than a billion Chinese will buy it, Japan will buy it, and South Korea will buy it. This is based on the spread of millennium culture, and it is difficult to refuse the compulsory acceptance under the soft acceptance! β
"The difference between Chinese and Western cultures makes me ignore this!" She actually stood up and paced back and forth in the room.
The high heels stepped on the sound of "deed" in the room, and no one spoke.
"Immediately! Call HQ! A moment later, Li Qiangrose slammed the table with her cigarette gun, and her voice was unmistakable.
"Let them send the experts who have the most in-depth research on the Chinese market! To the best batch! In addition, apply for a transfer of experts who study the Japanese market, the Korean market, and other large Asian markets at the same time! β
"Let the marketing department, the investment department, the budget department, and professionals start estimating the value of Lin Xiao's new film again. And get ready to budget for the painted skin! β
"How much to start?" Su Qiannian finally let go of the stone in his heart and asked.
"If he asks for 100 million, I'll give him 100 million!" Li Qiangrose said categorically: "Start with 100 million!" β
"The news can't be let him know." She glanced at Su Qiannian and said, "As soon as the American expert arrives, we will review his script and then finally announce the investment amount." β
"Besides......" she muttered for a moment, and whispered "forget it...... Let the experts come right away, I want to hear the most professional evaluation in three days! β
"If it can really resonate with Asia, even if we play some tricks, we must get its overseas copyright!"
β¦β¦
That night, market research experts from the United States quickly arrived in a small villa.
One machine after another was set up and began to transmit messages that had been gathered from all over the country.
Behind the computer programmer, a person, old and young, is constantly calculating something.
In the room, Li Qiang rose stood proudly.
"It's out!" A bearded white man in his thirties took the lead in raising his laptop.
"In Japan, 8% of people have heard of painted skin." He looked at the data and said, "This morning, after receiving your application, the company immediately sent someone to investigate in Japan. After the data is fed back, the data comes out after screening. Of course, the city surveyed was a ward in Tokyo, and the time frame was too short for a large sample to be taken. β
"Of those 8 percent, 5 percent are fully aware of the whole story. 2% know the story and don't know the name. The other 1% know the name but don't know the story. β
"What about age?"
"Generally people over 40 years old."
"8% in Seoul, South Korea." "10% in Pyongyang, North Korea."
"Camuel. The popularity of this story is not as high as it seems. Is it worth making a special trip? An old man with snow-white hair asked suspiciously.
"You're wrong!" Li Qiang's eyes were already shining at this moment, "If I was half-convinced before, now I have completely believed what Furukawa Twelve said!" β
"Look here!" She excitedly pointed to the screen and said, "Among the people we surveyed, almost all of them knew this story over 40 years old, and a few were over 30 years old!" β
"And this age is the main strength of a family! In other words, they may not usually talk about it, or they may just talk about it casually. However, when the painting skin is promoted, they will definitely make this story come to life again! β
"According to the calculation of three people in a family, this data will rise by at least one-third!"
"However, there are still a lot of people who don't know about painting skin." A blonde woman frowned and asked, "After all, it's not their national story." β
"How naΓ―ve!" Li Qiangrose laughed, "Don't understand? Then I'll let them know! β
"As long as there is this kind of foundation, it is not difficult to promote! I guess that Lin Xiao will definitely use a very special and novel method to make the audience who watches the painted skin look for the original story of the painted skin! β
"Special? A novel approach? β
"Specifically, I can't guess. But I have a feeling that maybe it's my instinct as a filmmaker. He'll definitely use it! Definitely! Moreover, this is a trick that can arouse fans to recall old movies and expect different things! She smiled excitedly, "Don't forget, the other party is the one who brought the 'standardization' of product placement to China!" I'm not surprised what he uses! β
