Chapter 134: The Empress's Order

In front of Wang Wei, a fat middle-aged producer was chattering, but Wang Wei just wanted to send him away quickly.

On the one hand, just looking at the other party's long-legged and slender waist from time to time like a predator, the eyes that can't wait to penetrate his clothes make Wang Wei feel that if he stays by his side for a while, he will be labeled as a raccoon dog.

On the other hand, although the other party is a producer with certain resources, he is only a second-rate producer after all.

A first-class producer must not only have strong project coordination skills, but also have a certain aesthetic and independent thinking ability - understand the script, be able to select suitable directors and actors according to the characteristics of the film, even if they are not famous, reasonably allocate funds and resources, and check the quality of film production.

And the other one, a second-rate producer who doesn't deserve a name-

What is the level of the script, he can't see it, the screenwriter is famous, and the theme is hot;

He doesn't care about the director's level, it's okay if he is famous enough;

He doesn't care what the level of the actor is, as long as he is famous and has enough traffic;

In the filming process, he only controlled the funds, and he couldn't understand the quality of the rough cut samples, and the director shot casually, and the post-editing didn't even have any opinions, and then this became his bragging capital......

Wang Wei endured and endured it again and again, and then suppressed the urge to spray him half-through.

Among the producers who came to cheer, there are the most second-rate producers like this.

It's not that it's incomprehensible.

First-rate producers are extremely sought-after wherever they are, most of them work with the Big Five, and they can't keep themselves busy with a bunch of their own projects at hand.

Moreover, even if they want to come, they often come with a bunch of conditions, requiring them to enjoy a certain percentage of the right to benefit from the work, including the right to benefit from the periphery.

Dunhuang is not unacceptable, the problem is that the five major ones can offer the same conditions - under the same conditions, who doesn't want to hug thicker thighs?

And if you want to cut off a larger piece of meat, it is not cost-effective for Dunhuang.

After all, there is no shortage of producers to this extent.

Wang Wei is responsible for the overall planning and operation of the project, and with Dunhuang's current plate, he can barely cope with it, and what is even more lacking is the executive producer.

If the first producer is regarded as the "commander-in-chief" appointed by the leader, the executive producer is a bit of a "supervising army" - they are responsible for dismantling and refining the producer's overall plan, implementing it step by step, and letting it be implemented smoothly.

We all know that the new projects in Dunhuang this year are indispensable, and many people are coming for the position of executive producer - many gold medal producers, the last step of growth is the executive producer, so that the trained producers are more likely to get Dunhuang's trust.

Therefore, in terms of executive producer, Wang Wei has made a small gain and has found several excellent candidates.

Of course, the specific cooperation agreement is not something that can be finalized by casual words at the banquet.

Later, the two sides will have to negotiate concretely.

However, after the intention is confirmed, there is no problem with cooperation in the general direction.

And there is joy and sorrow.

In terms of director search, the degree of unhappiness was obviously beyond Wang Wei's expectations.

- It's not a question of level.

There are many first-line directors who come to cheer, and in any case, ordinary commercial films are difficult for them.

- It is not a question of the distribution of benefits.

For directors with a level, Dunhuang will not be a dime, such as Zhuang Geng, even if he signs a film contract in advance, he can also enjoy a certain percentage of the box office share in the new film - for directors who only have one debut film, this is a treatment that the five will never give.

Unfortunately, in most cases, it is simply inappropriate.

The first is that it is inappropriate to be able to shoot genre films.

Even if you look at the world, a director who can succeed across multiple film genres is a rare level.

Most directors are only good at making one type of film in their lifetime, and they are also the "stable productivity" of this industry.

Then, Dunhuang's main focus this year is only comedy, love and suspense.

Therefore, although some directors have a very good level and a strong willingness to cooperate, they are not good at filming these three genres, and it is a pity that they are not in Dunhuang's plan this year.

And some other directors were given up by Wang Wei because of moral problems - cheating, liking unspoken rules, liking gambling and even smoking something.

- Not out of any psychological purity, but purely because there is no need to take risks.

Although in the entertainment industry, it is impossible to have too high requirements for morality, but there are always some people who do not have the slightest requirements for themselves morally, and you can never imagine what they will do.

You say it's under control?

Stop it.

People are inherently uncontrollable.

And the people in Vanity Fair are surrounded by temptations, and the degree of uncontrollability is naturally higher.

It's like an ordinary person who wants to cheat, and the track may not look down on you, but there are countless forks in the road in front of celebrities.

In short, this kind of director who is full of black material actually has traces to follow, and he may be thunderous one day.

Dunhuang is in the midst of rapid growth, the success or failure of each project is very important, if the main creator thunderstorm, not only the project will be killed, but also will lead to the company also fall into the whirlpool of negative public opinion.

Wang Wei's criterion for "demining" is also very simple - there is no big black history, and there is no messy death.

But these two articles alone have excluded a group of candidates.

In the end, after a celebration banquet, Wang Wei, who was filled with sycophants, only found a handful of directors.

"Compared with last year, when we could only shake people from newcomers and down-and-out groups, this year at least some of them have been picked, which is a great progress!"

After the banquet, Wang Wei met with Lao Wang and Shen Zhenyi, and comforted himself.

"The harvest on my side is not bad, and there are a few projects that are interesting and worth investing in." Lao Wang is in a very good mood.

They have a clear division of labor, one is responsible for "picking people", and the other is responsible for "picking projects".

——Not all of them come to ask for scripts, some people are because they believe in Dunhuang's vision and strong luck, and hope to pull Dunhuang into the game to reduce the risk of the project.

Coincidentally, the box office explosion of "Charlotte's Troubles" has exploded so far, and it is foreseeable that Dunhuang's money bags have been unprecedentedly drummed this year, and it is more cost-effective to choose some high-quality projects for investment, even if they can't dominate and can only drink soup behind the Big Five.

It should be said that to have such a harvest is not in vain for them to communicate non-stop throughout the banquet.

Unexpectedly, someone just casually "played soy sauce" and pulled up a vote!

That's right, not one, not two, but one vote!

When Shen Zhenyi said her gains at the banquet in a relaxed tone, Wang Wei and Lao Wang's eyes were about to pop out!

Lao Wang was half stunned, and muttered: "Mom, if this is in ancient times, it is the empress's order, and you can pull up a team to pull the flag and rebel in minutes......

Wang Wei finally realized what it was to feel that there was no point in living!

How can the gap between people be so big?

I put on a smiling face like a spring breeze, my face was cramping, and I didn't catch a few big fish.

This girl, sitting there, a fish pond took the initiative to send it to the door?

This thief, when he is not a man, he is really not a man at all!
