Chapter 305: If They Don't Play Their Cards According to Common Sense (1/N Supplement)

Previous Chapter

"Crazy? This must be insane! Or you just want to kill me! ”

At the same time, Zhou Qiming watched the roadshow arrangement of "Jiupin Sesame Official" and was dumbfounded!

Lower-tier cities account for 75% of the roadshow routes!

That's not the point!

The point is that the crew arranged 500 roadshows in a month!

Even if the director, actors and other main creators of the film go to the roadshow in several ways, they are destined to run the rhythm of breaking their legs.

"This has broken the record of movie roadshows, right?"

Zhou Qiming asked the agent who helped him plan his trip.

The agent Yu Li thought for a while, nodded and said: "Although I haven't heard that there is a record of roadshows, you should become the record holder of the most movie roadshows!" ”

"It's the first time I've had no idea about setting a record!" Zhou Qiming just wanted to hehe.

The agent shrugged his shoulders, "The contract stipulates that it is your duty to run the roadshow according to the crew's arrangement." ”

"I'm not trying to pass the buck."

Zhou Qiming stretched out his hands and said, "I just think that the general roadshow doesn't go to key cities, and we even have to go to the county seat, is it necessary?" ”

The agent understood what he meant.

This is not to say that he looks down on lower-tier cities - actors who can't resonate with the bottom can't play the joys, sorrows and sorrows of the grassroots, and can't portray the struggles and struggles of market characters;

It's just that, starting from reality, roadshows to small cities do not conform to the general economic laws.

To put it bluntly, the roadshow also consumes a huge cost of eating, drinking, and Lazar all the way; The question is how big is the market in a small city, even if all the films are given to you, how much box office can you get?

Don't run down a roadshow, the box office revenue can't offset the roadshow investment!

It can be said that this is the main reason why almost all crews do not include lower-tier cities in the scope of the roadshow.

"Yes, that's pretty counterintuitive."

"Then I'm ......"

"But from my point of view,"

The agent interrupted Zhou Qiming's words,

"If Dunhuang doesn't play cards according to common sense, it's best to listen to them!"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Qiming was almost defeated by the "superstition" of the agent.

The agent suddenly laughed, "Actually, I have always prided myself on being a rational agent, but from the first day I contacted Dunhuang, no, it should be said that I was the first day I contacted Shen Zhenyi, I didn't dare to say that I was rational." ”

"Especially after getting acquainted with Director Wang Wei, I don't know how the word 'reason' is written, you know, few of the choices he made are 'normal'."

Thinking of Wang Wei's various "legends", Zhou Qiming was speechless.

"I'm not a consequentialist, but you really want to see what 'not very rational' has brought me."

The agent shrugged.

What did the in-depth cooperation with the Dunhuang Department bring to Yu Li?

In a word, she has become one of the most powerful agents in the Chinese entertainment industry!

There is a brokerage company in Hollywood, CAA, which likes to play the packaging business, to put it simply, it is to bundle up multiple artists under it according to the needs of the filmmaker and sign them to the filmmaker together.

Among these artists, of course, there are filmmakers who take a fancy to them, but some of them are pure additives.

Yu Li's cooperation with the Dunhuang Department is similar, but she only provides the actors that Dunhuang wants; With the expansion of her artist team, she began to be able to provide all the actors that the Dunhuang director wanted!

Of course, Dunhuang is expanding faster, and she can't use this to get a share or even production power of Dunhuang films, but for some new directors who are still developing, it may not be.

When an agent obtains the production power of some crews, even if it is part of the power, she stands at the top of the brokerage industry.

It can't be said that her success depends entirely on Dunhuang, but taking Dunhuang, the fastest-growing ship in the Chinese entertainment industry, is the first to get the moon near the water, so as to attract more talented artists to sign contracts with her, which must be her biggest help.

Isn't that how he Zhou Qiming?

"Don't talk about me, look at your experience of becoming famous, where can you talk about 'common sense'?" The agent said and blinked.

Zhou Qiming was even more speechless.

From a tricky step to the sky, completely unleash the talent of comedy, that's all - he believes that even if Wang Wei doesn't dig out, the process may be a little tortuous, but he will be able to get out of it after all.

But it's really abnormal to "own" the production power so quickly.

Yes, in the crew of "Jiupin Sesame Official", Zhou Qiming is different from other actors who focus on acting, he has at least no less power than the director.

He knows that he "can't be a man, has low emotional intelligence, and has a bad temper ......", but he feels that Director Wang Wei once came up with a sentence, "Only paranoia can succeed", which can be described as a true portrayal of him!

- As long as he is given the script, he can't help but plunge into it, and do anything desperately; He is as demanding of himself as he is of his partners.

It stands to reason that any famous director will not get used to him.

But director Kim Jae-ku is "used to it"!

In a way, director Kim Jae-ku is not like a chief director, but like an executive director; With a gentle personality, he also acted as a buffer for Zhou Qiming and the rest of the crew.

Of course, he only had some production power unwritten under the "indulgence" of Director Jin, and it was Wang Wei, the first producer, who finally really determined the direction of editing.

- No matter how conceited he is, he will not even have this kind of look.

In general, "Jiupin Sesame Official" is the most comfortable performance he has played since he started his career - "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" is not counted, he was more trembling at that time.

This is also the reason why he did not refuse Dunhuang's request to extend the film contract at the first time.

Even from his own heart, he is not happy to be tied to a company for too long.

But not all investors can be so "indulgent" with actors.

"Did you find it? The more Dunhuang does not play cards according to common sense, the easier it is to succeed. ”

"This ......"

"It's metaphysical, isn't it?"

Looking at the stunned Zhou Qiming, the agent smiled,

"I used to think so, but after a few more experiences, you'reβ€”"

"Got used to it?"

"No, it's numb!"

Zhou Qiming is really numb,

"Although, but, it's still too frustrating to run such a crazy roadshow!"

The agent comforted, "Think about the box office share you might get, is there any motivation?" ”

"The premise is that the roadshow arrangement is really effective."

The broker bowed, "Time will tell." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Then follow them out of their minds! By the way, I negotiated a long-term agreement with Dunhuang, you delay it first. ”

"Afraid that this time it will fail?"

"No, I'm afraid that I will be too successful, and it will become a routine in the future, and I have a life to make money but not a life to spend!" Zhou Qiming had a wry smile on his face.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

- So, you already have the answer in mind?!!

Well, I owe I don't know how much, so make up for it slowly~~~
