Chapter 232, the Xiangdao actress is so enthusiastic

Wanyan is about to go public, and this news is indeed a great stimulus to the market.

As the spokesperson that Wan Yan later chose, Cheng Long was very busy for a while.

As the first person to get a commercial endorsement in the mainland, Cheng Long seems to have a higher career among the stars in Xiangdao.

But for others, it's really winter.

After the outbreak of VCD this year, whether it is the box office or the subsequent disc sales, it can be called a cliff-like decline.

The changes in the mainland in the past two years are obvious to all, and the market for music, movies and TV dramas is undoubtedly even bigger. However, the wages of mainlanders have not risen to an outrageous level, and most of these new markets have been eaten up by piracy.

Some people are already thinking about a way out.

One of the biggest problems is the source of funding for the filming of Xiangdao.

In the golden age, a very large proportion of Xiangdao film investment actually came from Bay Island.

And this year, the wind has changed, and the filmmakers on Bay Island are retreating in a very concentrated manner.

After Song Yang met Le Huimin in Yanjing, he was finally invited to Xiangdao.

This time, the scene was huge.

Song Yang and Li Ru are equivalent to seeing most of the Xiangdao film industry at one time. The handsome guy doesn't, he is the owner of several film companies. There are a lot of beautiful girls, all of them are amazing.

This is a social entertainment bureau, "righteousness" is above, and the actresses still want to mix in the Xiangdao film circle, so they have to cheer.

Li Ru took Xu Qing with him, but there was no one around Song Yang.

"Amin, sit next to Song Sheng!"

Because Zhang Min, who had turned people's hearts upside down in retrospect for many years, was asked by Xiang Sheng, and sat next to Song Yang with a reluctant smile.

Song Yang smiled politely and said, "I'm flattered." ”

"Song Sheng, are you really single?" Le Huimin joked as an intermediary, "There are many singers and female artists who have just debuted in Xiangdao, and they admire Song Shengke very much, do you want to introduce me?" ”

“…… I still prefer my sisters. Song Yang was joking.

In terms of age, these first-line actresses are really Song Yang's sister.

Liu Jialin, who has experienced a lot of ups and downs, laughed and teased: "When you came to Xiangdao, why didn't you make an appointment with Miss Zhou?" ”

"I made an appointment with her, how can I see so many beautiful women at once?"

Li Ru just kept whispering to Xu Qing, and he didn't seem to be happy to stay here.

Song Yang looked at him next to him, and then said to Xiang Sheng and Zhou Xingfu: "It's so grand today, and they are all old friends, no need to be polite, let's talk about business first." ”

Lehui people save this bureau, firstly, to talk about the cooperation between Sanyou Culture and the Xiangdao film industry on the copyright of optical discs, and secondly, to help the Xiangdao film industry to pull a new financier.

Otherwise, why would these Xiangdao film companies, which are harmonious on the surface but have many means inside, get together to support Song Yang and Li Ru?

Li Ru casually swept around them, and said in a very lazy tone: "Ming people don't say secret words, the copyright is so expensive to sell to me, your family, there are still people in your own family who engage in piracy and make another profit." I don't care, anyway, this kid said that he admitted it, and he made up for me how much I lost. But in the back of the cooperation, brother, I don't do the wrong! ”

Although Xiang Sheng and the others still had smiles on their faces, they were relatively reluctant.

Zhou Xingzhi just sat there alone, silent.

Song Yang sighed: "VCD is popular, this is an inevitable thing. But the film companies on Bay Island no longer invest in Xiangdao's films, not only because of this. ”

In the golden age, Xiangdao's movies were indeed brilliant.

But in fact, more Xiangdao movies are quite shoddy. A film, from the establishment of the project to the completion of the filming and release, sometimes only a few months. There is no shortage of famous movie stars who have the experience of running multiple sets at the same time.

It's just that during the previous period, the soil of the Chinese film industry was too poor, as long as there were films, it would be good to make more money and earn less.

Song Yang analyzed this reason, and then said: "Everything has this stage. After fierce competition, it is time to compete for quality. Bay Island began to fully lift restrictions on foreign films last year, and what is the status of Hollywood's films now? Jurassic Park! From investment to acting, visual effects, subject matter...... In the past, the quality of the video recorder was very poor, but it was more interesting to go to the theater to watch a movie. In the future, only more refined films will be able to survive on the big screen. ”

The greater the investment, the higher the risk.

The capital of Bay Island cannot afford to play.

The essence of Xiangdao movies has declined from the golden period is that they are used to enjoying dividends, and they are still the thinking of small workshops. First, there is no long-term consideration, and second, there is no real film industry system. Even what can barely be put forward and called accumulation is nothing more than some action guidance teams.

In addition, it is a group of stars who rose with the help of the golden age.

They are indeed very hardworking and dedicated, but the soil on which they grow is such a state.

“…… Song Sheng, let's be serious. Xiang Sheng smiled and raised his hand to circle proudly, "Xiangdao is full of talents in the film industry, and the future is still very bright. ”

"Of course." Song Yang smiled, but looked at Zhou Xingzhi, "Mr. Zhou, after hearing that "Journey to the West" failed at the box office, he established a Xinghui Pictures. ”

Zhou Xingzhi smiled reluctantly, and thought for a moment before answering in Mandarin that was not very fluent: "Yes, Song Sheng." ”

Last year's filming of "Journey to the West" was a co-production mode.

This film is the highlight of Zhou Xingzhi and a few friends after establishing a new company.

If you want to transform, you have a lot of things to pour into. In the end, the film was seriously overrun, with a total investment of more than 60 million incense coins, and it was filmed in two parts.

As a result, the box office was very unsatisfactory. Combined, the two films only sold 54 million incense coins at the box office in the Xiangdao Film Market, which was quite popular last year; was released in the mainland at the beginning of this year, and only recovered about 200,000 box office.

In terms of investment and return, it was a fiasco, and it was even known as the bad movie of the year, and the company went out of business because of it.

Now, Zhou Xing's idiot's Xinghui, he is the only one who does it alone. Today's dinner was also forced by Zhou Xingfu to participate in it for the sake of his later career.

In order to be able to turn over.

Song Yang said through the words: "I also believe that Xiangdao movies still have a bright future, but in the future, the model will have to change." Brother Li listened to my suggestion to do the business of genuine CDs in the Xiangdao film and television industry, but he could only be exhausted to crack down on piracy. If you don't want to sell the permanent CD-ROM and digital rights directly, let me be the middleman. ”

Li Ru squinted at him: "What the hell are you thinking about?" ”

"How can you call it a ghost idea?" Song Yang said with a smile, "There are still many good projects and good filmmakers in Xiangdao. I set up a company in Xiangdao to make up for the vacancy after the withdrawal of funds from Bay Island. But the copyright of the project I invested in belongs to me, can you accept it? ”

Xiangdao's film companies are reluctant to sell the mainland's CD copyrights and online digital rights to Sanyou Culture in one go, so they start with the funds they urgently need.

Although Sanyou Culture can do this itself, the current drama is after all Li Ru has been miserable by Song Yang. Can he continue to use his own money to step on the pit?

But Le Huimin only thought about what Song Yang and Li Ru said when they were in Yanjing before, "settle accounts after the autumn".

If he is an investor in some large-scale production projects, and uses the operation of these projects as an excuse to fight a lawsuit with Xiangdao Film Company in the future, it will be justified.

Le Huimin couldn't help but look at them.

There are no more than two results: there is no consensus tonight, or take this trick, and at least converge on the projects invested by Song Yang in the future.

In the silence, the taciturn Zhou Xingzhi opened his mouth first: "Song Sheng, I have a scene preparing for filming now." ”

Zhou Xing, who travels lightly, has no baggage, he just wants to prove himself.

The new identity of the director, in fact, he already has successful works. However, he has his own content that he wants to express, and he does not want to blindly compromise with the market at the moment.

Song Yang nodded: "Let's talk about it later." First of all, I can provide 50% to 80% of the funding for the project, and the producer will not interfere with the creation, but I want the master tape and the copyright. Of course, you can also invest only 20 to 40 percent, then you only need the mainland's CD-ROMs and digital copyrights. ”

That's the general framework, whether they want it or not, it's their business.

Song Yang didn't say much, but when Xiang Sheng asked about the capital plan, Song Yang said lightly that he could invest 100 million yuan in the first year to test the water.

This is enough to shoot several scenes in Xiangdao.

Li Ru acted very strangely, looking at him like a stupid critic: "I lost money because of piracy on the CD, you admit it, I admit it, but I don't have to do it." ”

"It's like you're going to lose." Song Yang looked at the actresses with a smile, "Sisters are not happy!" If the shooting is good, the audience will still buy it. ”

The Xiangdao film industry is expected to invest an additional 100 million yuan in the next year, and some people who are quite ambitious have already thought about it.

Following Song Yang's words, no matter what the bosses of the film company thought, they became enthusiastic for a while.

It's that Zhang Min beside Song Yang doesn't seem to be very interested.

Song Yang also vaguely knows what the story is, Zhang Min began to quit the film industry and start business around this time, right?

The relationship between her and Xiang Sheng is unclear, and Song Yang has the right to have an atmosphere on the scene.

The sisters who are still in their prime, look at the eyes.

But he's in this kind of mentality, and some people are obviously very hot.

Taking the opportunity of toasting, Guan Zhilin, who was holding a red wine glass, stood between Song Yang and Zhang Min, his eyes were always bright, and the words of conversation were soon not limited to movies.

"Song Sheng, I also want to develop a little bit in music, I don't know if I have the honor to sing the songs written by Song Sheng in the future."

“…… Sister Guan, why don't we change seats? Zhang Min suddenly spoke.

"What's so embarrassing about that?" Guan Zhilin smiled like a flower, but was obviously happy.

To this day, Guan Zhilin's reputation is in the Xiangdao circle, who doesn't know?

Song Yang saw her sitting beside her without any guilt in the smiles of others, and pulled the chair to his side.

There is no doubt that a man who is young, handsome and golden, and will be of great help to her career, Guan Zhilin doesn't mind sticking it.

Li Ru glanced at Song Yang meaningfully.

Looking at her charming eyes, Song Yang couldn't help but smile: "Then we have to look at Sister Guan's timbre and singing skills, and I don't know when I will have the time and mind to write songs." ”

"I can sing it to Song Sheng......" Guan Zhilin made an appointment with him enthusiastically, as if it was not good to sing in front of so many people.

After correcting the mistakes, Li Ru saw that Song Yang was very familiar with the people who came, and he did not refuse, and pushed the cup with them to change the lamp.

At the end of the dinner, on the way back to the hotel, Xu Qingjiao asked, "Do you want to go too?" ”

"I don't want to see these guys!" Li Ru said righteously, "Besides, there is no one else in the eyes of the master except you!" ”

Xu Qing's smile bloomed, extremely sultry, and then sighed: "But I didn't expect Song Yang to go!" He and Xiao Shen, is it really in the past? Changed? ”

Li Ru also sighed: "It's really changed." ”

“…… Pity. It's all bad with you! ”

"......" Li Ru was speechless, "What's the matter with me?" If you say that again, the lord will leave you behind! ”

"You dare!"
