Chapter 417:
Taishan Pictures, General Manager's Office.
Lu Zhizheng carefully looked at the stack of data at hand, and at the same time, his brain was also spinning rapidly, calculating and measuring the data in the data. Towards the end of the year, it is the time when various departments of the company submit plans for next year, and it is also the busiest time of the year, with dozens of projects that need him to do the final approval, and the workload is scary.
Working overtime for a week to hold meetings and approve, Lu Zhi was exhausted.
"Damn, can't you have some new ideas?"
After reading another plan, Lu Zhi almost wanted to throw it directly into the trash!
Fried cold rice or something, he was the most annoying.
However, after taking a deep breath and calming down his somewhat irritable mood a little, Lu Zhi still wrote the words "discussed at the meeting" on the plan, and then threw it aside. Although he wanted to tear it off directly, he had to worry about the name on the first page of the plan book - the handwriting of a veteran producer in the company, and the director was also an old relation......
"Gotcha! Get! ”
Just as Lu Zhi picked up the next plan and was about to start reading, there was a knock on the door of the room.
"Please come in!"
"Mr. Lu, are you busy?"
After the door was opened, Sun Xiangdong walked in and greeted with a smile.
"Ouch, Director Sun is here?"
Hurriedly put down the planning book in his hand, Lu Zhi stood up and hurriedly greeted: "Hurry up, please take a seat!" Xiao Yang, go and bring Director Sun a cup of his favorite coffee! ”
"Yes, Mr. Lu."
The little secretary who knocked on the door for Sun Xiangdong hurriedly went to serve coffee, while he himself sat down on the sofa under Lu Zhi's greeting.
Without waiting for Lu Zhi to speak, Sun Xiangdong got straight to the point and said: "Mr. Lu, I came to you today because I just found a script yesterday, so I want to discuss it with you quickly......
New script again?
The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and Lu Zhi was speechless.
In the past few days, he has read the scripts, ranging from movie scripts with an investment of three or four billion yuan to sitcoms with a total investment of no more than 15 million, and now this Sun Xiangdong has gone directly to his office.
What is this? When the general manager is an auditor, is it not possible?
However, he didn't dare to offend this director Sun Lu Zhi too much, after all, directors can't afford to offend these years, especially a director like Sun Xiangdong who has a lot of fame and is willing to stay in Taishan Pictures is even rarer. So shaking his eyebrows, Lu Zhi smiled dryly: "Director Sun, if it is a script you like, you should write a plan first, and then submit it to ......."
"Mr. Lu, this is not an ordinary script!"
Without waiting for Lu Zhi to finish speaking, Sun Xiangdong shook his head and said: "You know the "Criminal Minds" that is being broadcast on Beijing Satellite TV now, right? ”
"Criminal minds? Of course you do! ”
After being slightly stunned, Lu Zhi nodded hurriedly.
How could he not know the famous "Criminal Minds"? The ratings of the latest episode have been infinitely close to four points, and it has stood in the first place in the ratings of TV dramas; And the on-demand on Golden Eagle Video is close to 80 million in a single day, which is also the top three existence on the whole network - people only have it on Golden Eagle Video!
Such a popular drama, how could Lu Zhi not know?
And what he also knows is that in addition to China, this drama is also popular in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, in addition to the top ratings, the online on-demand rate is also frighteningly high, and even Europe and the United States have recently become popular......
"Uh......"
Suddenly remembered a conversation with Sun Xiangdong a long time ago, and Lu Zhi's eyes suddenly widened: "Director Sun, is it difficult for you to suddenly talk about this "Criminal Minds...... What you said last time came true? “
Sun Xiangdong found a friend to ask Lao Bai about the script, and Lu Zhi did hear him say it at the beginning.
It's just that Taishan Pictures itself also contacted Sun Peng's agent, but they refused outright, and then there was no news from Sun Xiangdong's side, and slowly Lu Zhi forgot about it. I didn't expect that after so long, Lao Sun would have a letter?
Nodding, Sun Xiangdong said with a wry smile: "Well, I'm talking about Lao Bai's new script!" Although I had already given up in my heart, I didn't expect people to suddenly contact me and say that I had already written a plan and a five-episode script, and it was really a crime drama......"
"Where? Quick, show me! “
Finally couldn't hold it anymore, and Lu Zhi stood up suddenly.
What a good thing!
Watching people's "Criminal Minds" kill all sides in the ratings and on the Internet, and now they have done what Huaxia TV people want to do the most - to enter the mainstream TV circles in Europe and the United States, it would be nonsense to say that Lu Zhi is not envious! Therefore, after analyzing the success of "Criminal Minds" several times, Taishan Company found that the most critical reason is still the person of Lao Bai!
There is no doubt that the script of "Criminal Minds" is excellent, especially if it can be accepted by Western audiences, but if it were not for the help of Luo Cheng and Chen Feifei, two superstars in the music industry, it would definitely not be easy for "Criminal Minds" to become popular so quickly. Otherwise, the quality of the first season is not bad, why can't it get up?
And in the end, who does the success of the two superstars depend on?
Aren't the songs that this old white wrote?
So after standing up, Lu Zhi immediately sat next to Sun Xiangdong again, and almost went directly to the director's small bag.
"Uh...... Don't worry! “
Hurriedly waved his hand, Sun Xiangdong smiled bitterly: "I haven't got the script and planning book yet!" People put forward some conditions, I don't dare to agree casually, I came to you today to discuss whether I want to cooperate with the other party......"
"Conditions? As long as it's not outrageous, you can say yes! “
With a wave of his hand, Lu Zhi said loudly with great momentum.
"Huh, huh?"
With another wry smile, Sun Xiangdong said helplessly: "People ask to designate the candidates for the hero and heroine, Mr. Lu, can you also agree?" “
"What?!"
Hearing Sun Xiangdong's words, Lu Zhi was suddenly dumbfounded: "Designated hero and heroine? How can it be? The hero and heroine let him take it, what about our company's own people? Give them a supporting role? Isn't that a joke! “
"So, ah......"
spread his hands, Sun Xiangdong was also helpless.
"Isn't that?"
Slammed the table, and Lu Zhi's face completely darkened......
……
"Brother Chen, are you now under a brokerage company or are you running your own studio?"
When he asked Chen Changfeng and Lin Lin to eat together in the evening, Sun Peng asked casually.
"At present, I am still hanging in the brokerage company, hehe."
Smiling self-deprecatingly, Chen Changfeng shook his head and said, "With my current coffee position, I am not qualified to open a studio, so I just signed a five-year contract with the brokerage company last year...... Why do you ask this? It can't be related to "Super Sense Detective", right? ”
Tilting his head and thinking for a while, Sun Peng smiled: "Of course it is!" I looked for people from Taishan Pictures before, and they were very interested, but they had an opinion about me appointing you and my cousin as the heroes and heroines, so ...... You can ask your brokerage company to see if they have any access to them. ”
There has always been a disconnect between brokerage companies and film and television companies.
Even many brokerage companies themselves are part of the film and television company, or the film and television company itself has its own brokerage department. Lin Lin has always worked alone, so naturally there is no problem, so if Chen Changfeng can find his own agency to help, the problem of the hero and heroine should be able to be solved a little better, right?
"Really? May I? ”
Hearing Sun Peng say this, Chen Changfeng's eyes instantly lit up!
……
Carvin, it's stuck, this chapter is very watery.
