Chapter 206: A little low, what do you want to be tall
The next day, around 4 p.m.
Lu Zhou, Luo Feng and Qi Jiajia appeared together in the new film culture.
Yesterday said yes, Xu Junze knew that Luo Fengfeng would come together, but he didn't expect Qi Jiajia to appear, and the moment he saw her, he was stunned for a moment.
Her short hair is trimmed shorter and neater than when she was on a variety show, wearing an elegant and decent OL skirt and makeup suitable for the workplace, and her whole temperament is more like a strong woman in the workplace.
"What? Don't know me anymore? ”
Qi Jiajia noticed Xu Junze's stunnedness, and took the lead in greeting with a bright smile.
Xu Junze came back to his senses, and immediately put on a smiling face and answered: "How could I not know you, it's just a little accident, you are here too." ”
Lu Zhou raised the brim of his hat and said, "She just came back from a business trip abroad yesterday afternoon, and I called her here on temporary terms. ”
Xu Junze responded happily and beckoned the three of them into his office.
Luo Feng and Lu Zhou cooperated with Luming Culture, Qi Jiajia and Lu Zhou co-founded Dasi Global, the two companies are closely related.
Xu Junze knows this.
But Xu Junze has not had direct work contact with Qi Jiajia, after all, so far, there is no intercommunication business between the new film culture and Dasi Global.
There is no contact between the two.
"Mr. Xu's office environment looks much better than mine." Qi Jiajia looked at Xu Junze's company environment, and suddenly looked at Lu Zhou jokingly and said, "Mr. Lu, you are eccentric." ”
Lu Zhou picked up the tea that Xu Junze poured for him, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Where am I eccentric, isn't the company's site selection and decoration all handed over to you to be responsible?" Can this also depend on me? ”
Xu Junze and Luo Feng laughed.
"If you really like this style, ask Junze for a decoration drawing, and reorganize Dath Global, or it will be solved." Lu Zhou put down the teacup and quipped.
Xu Junze cooperated with a smile, "No problem, the drawings are provided for free." ”
Qi Jiajia snorted and said with a smile: "Who will provide the money for the redecoration?" ”
Lu Zhou leaned back in the chair and raised his lips and replied: "Of course, whoever is working there is out, the company doesn't even have an office card slot for me, so it can't be out of my pocket, right?" ”
Qi Jiajia shook her head "tsk", looked at Luo Feng and Xu Junze and joked:
"Look at our Mr. Lu! He has recently become famous on the show, and his new songs have skyrocketed, and he has made a lot of money, but he refused to support me with a decoration fee because my company did not set up an office space for him. ”
Luo Feng and Xu Junze laughed again.
Xu Junze observed Lu Zhou and Qi Jiajia, the two of them did not twist their conversations at all, they were generous, and they seemed to be completely in partnership.
The subtle atmosphere that once existed between the two of them in the love variety show no longer exists.
Qi Jiajia is also a person who can afford to let go, and the embarrassment of not being able to confess to Lu Zhou seems to have been forgotten for a long time.
Or maybe it's a favorite in the past, but it's just a momentary impulse.
When I jumped out of the show to look back on the past, I was clear-headed.
Xu Junze thought about himself, how could he not be?
It's a magical show, full of all kinds of drama.
But it was precisely because of that show that they met by chance, and even came together to work together.
Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is inconclusive.
However, Xu Junze looked at the current market feedback, and he was glad that Lu Zhou found him to cooperate in founding a new film culture.
The four of them laughed and talked in Xu Junze's office for a while, and then moved to the conference room to get into the main topic of today's work.
Xu Junze gave them a brief description of the recent development process of the new film culture, what achievements have been made, and what problems need to be solved urgently.
"When our new film culture entered the market, it can be said that the entire short drama market has not yet formed a scale, it is almost blank, and there are bits and pieces of people playing in this direction, but according to the information we have learned so far, they are basically small fights and not a climate."
"We have a very big advantage over them."
"At this stage, our new film culture has mastered a number of Internet celebrity resources with good potential, these Internet celebrities have common characteristics, that is, they have their own small traffic, but they can't make a profit, they are confused about their own positioning, and the traffic has no viscosity.
"People, I can say that I am basically ready to do so, and I am about to start the work and practice."
"But now there is a great shortage of script resources, especially high-quality works, Mr. Luo, the works provided by you are not enough to shoot."
"This is a problem that has been bothering us a lot lately."
Xu Junze played a slideshow and described to them the recent plight of the new film culture.
Lu Zhou turned the black pen in his hand one by one, and listened with a serious face.
"Luo Feng, what's the situation on your side?"
Suddenly, he turned his head to look at Luo Feng next to him.
Luo Feng supported his chin with one hand, withdrew his gaze from the slide, and responded:
"Mr. Xu encountered this problem, he mentioned it to me once before, and I also seriously considered it. But if you want to maintain quality and make a breakthrough in quantity, our company's script supply will definitely not be able to keep up. ”
"We have a lot of works, and you can choose from the entire library. However, if you want to turn it into a short play, you have to let the screenwriter change it to a script, which is also a technical job, and if you want to write a good script, you have to spend a lot of time. ”
"According to the current supply, the screenwriters are enough, but if you want to increase the amount as Mr. Xu said, then you have to recruit people."
"If you continue to recruit......"
When Luo Feng said this, he smiled, looked embarrassed, and confessed: "According to our recent revenue report of Luming Culture, if there is no new financing plan in the future, I personally do not advocate continuing to expand the scale." This contradicts Mr. Xu's needs. ”
Luo Feng's words came out, and the scene fell into a brief silence.
After a long time, Xu Junze nodded, saying that he could understand Luo Feng's difficulties, after all, they also had the same dilemma when it came to funds.
"Funding, it's a real problem, and we're also facing such a problem."
"If you want to quickly occupy the market, you need to create a large number of available talents in this area, and a large number of works, to do this, then we are also tight on the funds at present."
"But a dilemma is a dilemma, and we have to find a way to solve it. The short and fast entertainment market of short dramas must be laid out as soon as possible, and the entry action must not be slow, otherwise the people who grab the cake will flock to it, and at that time, we will be very difficult if we want to become bigger and stronger. ”
Xu Junze said in a deep voice.
Each has its own difficulties, how to achieve a balance.
Lu Zhou's movement of turning the pen stopped.
"Junze, let's play the short drama filmed by the company." He said suddenly.
Xu Junze was slightly stunned, then nodded, and called up a few representative works with better data on the computer to play for everyone to see.
Lu Zhou quickly browsed a few works, pondered for a long time, and then looked at Xu Junze and said:
"Let's reduce the cost of shooting in the early stage, there is no need to shoot so exquisitely, be down-to-earth, and when the market is opened, you can take the tall route."
"The theme selection of the script should also be well positioned, which wave of audiences are you positioning for these short dramas currently filmed?"
Xu Junze frowned and said: "Your question is too general, short videos are also divided into male and female audiences, female themes are different from male themes, the audience groups are different, and the main focus is the main force in the current short video big data anyway." ”
Regarding Lu Zhou's previous words, Xu Junze also responded immediately, and in front of Qi Jiajia and Luo Feng, his tone seemed to be a little "You don't know how to do it" and said:
"We've filmed it more down-to-earth, but the feedback on the delivery data is not good, the aesthetics of the main force of short videos at present, don't allow short dramas with a lower painting style at all, don't try to make them more exquisite, they don't watch it, in their concept, isn't it fragrant to watch TV series? The content is even better. ”
As soon as his voice fell, Qi Jiajia and Luo Feng invariably glanced at Lu Zhou's face.
Lu Zhou didn't have any expression, he seemed to be thinking seriously, and after listening to Xu Junze's words, he said: "The crowd positioning is wrong, the theme is not right, and the delivery data will certainly not look good." ”
"If you want to take the boutique route, you can't go in large quantities, which is a contradiction."
"At this stage, if the funds are tight, first find a way to spread the market, make a profit, survive moisturizingly, and then consider the boutique route when you are full of food and drink. I haven't eaten enough, what do you want? ”
Qi Jiajia and Luo Feng raised their eyebrows at the same time, listening attentively.
was directly rebuffed, Xu Junze's face was a little unpleasant, but he still seriously thought about Lu Zhou's words and asked, "The crowd is wrongly positioned?" ”
"I can't say that it's wrong, I can only say that choosing this group of people at this stage is not conducive to survival, because we have limited funds." Lu Zhou corrected his rhetoric slightly.
"You said that the audience of short dramas is the main force of short videos at present, and it is true that the theme of short dramas you choose, it is true, young, innovative, interesting, and in line with positioning."
"But the positioning was chosen wrong at the beginning, at this stage, you should play the sinking market, the more you sink, the better, choose the third-tier city groups, do the content they love to watch, these themes you shoot now, they can't appreciate it, they are Xiaobai users, you have to show them Xiaobai content."
"Male frequency theme, shoot those contradictions and coolness full of urban soldiers, the return of the son-in-law, you will open the door to a new world."
"If you are a female frequency, you will shoot those domineering presidents who fall in love with me, the disabled prince who stands up on the wedding night, the wife who runs away with the ball, the richest man in the world, and so on, the more bloody, the better, and the data will tell you what is the most profitable."
"The cost of filming these is low, as long as the script is written well, the actors can achieve 'exaggerated and real' acting skills, and show the conflict and coolness of the plot, it is enough."
"What kind of urban workplace love are you filming now, the first love on campus, and the slap in the face of the school bully, these groups either have no money, or they are tricky, and they don't like to watch the content without quality, and they think it's better to chase it, this kind of is not profitable."
"You can go back and study the short drama of the chief secretary that you let Li Jiayan star, why the data has risen so well."
Lu Zhou singled out the problems he saw and threw them to Xu Junze to think about.
Then he turned his head to look at Luo Feng and said:
"Luo Feng, you have arranged for someone to select some new media with better data performance from the work library, and recently let the screenwriter give priority to refining the plot and adapting it into a script, each episode should be short, just a few minutes of footage, and each episode must have enough cool points and conflicts."
"I don't require high quality, low-level novices are enough, this is not difficult for professional screenwriters, and it is still energy-producing."
"It's really not good, go to the university to recruit part-time jobs, and then let Li Wen give everyone a few days of basic screenwriting training courses."
Luo Feng was satisfied with this plan, nodded and smiled: "OK." ”
Seeing that the two of them had arrangements, Qi Jiajia couldn't help but look at Lu Zhou and asked with a smile: "So what am I doing today?" Accompaniment? ”
Lu Zhou turned his eyes to look at her, raised his lips and smiled, "I called you here to let you understand the situation first, and by the way, do you have any of these short drama works in Junze's library, which your team can look at and think can be translated and put overseas." ”
When Qi Jiajia heard this, his eyes fell on the projection slide, he pondered for a moment, and said, "You can indeed turn on this mode." ”
"Jun Ze, the themes of the female frequency city and campus short dramas that you filmed earlier are of acceptable quality, after we translate them, we can try to put them in the Southeast Asian market to see the effect."
When Xu Junze heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up slightly, and he smiled: "That's great!" Do you translate for us for free? ”
Qi Jiajia raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Free?" I want you to be beautiful! Why don't you say that you give us free footage? ”
Xu Junze: "......"
Luo Feng was happy, and said to Xu Junze: "You really do a good daydream, and it's free, she helps us Luming Culture translate works to go to sea, all of which are to collect a part of the profits, if she really gives you a new film culture for free, then I will complain to Lu Zhou and cry out for grievances." ”
Lu Zhou smiled, "It's useless to shout grievances with me, how to cooperate is your business, you are the company's talker, and I am only responsible for collecting money." ”
Qi Jiajia, Luo Feng, Xu Junze: "......"
Is he a talker, he doesn't have a little pressure in his heart? What about the face?
After the four of them finished solving the work problem, it was close to six o'clock in the afternoon.
When it was time for dinner, Xu Junze said that he would invite them to a big dinner.
Luo Feng had something to hurry back to deal with, so he refused;
Qi Jiajia asked a friend at night, but she also refused;
Lu Zhou was going to the master's house at half past seven, and his wife specially told him to make his dinner, and he had to save his stomach.
There was still time for Lu Zhou to stay here for a while longer.
Xu Junze went back to the office to sort out the ideas for today's meeting, and said to Lu Zhou who was nesting on the sofa with a smile: "So, if you encounter a problem, I still have to talk to you. You usually have nothing to do and come to the company to sit down. ”
Lu Zhou looked up from his mobile phone and said, "It's okay, I'm just busy." ”
Xu Junze: "Tut, too, you are a big celebrity now." ”
Lu Zhou: "Play less yin and yang." ”
Xu Junze smiled, "I sometimes feel that you are not in the entertainment industry, but more like an old fritter who is very familiar with our industry." There are some key issues that you can hit the nail on the head at a glance. ”
"It's just a bystander." Lu Zhou lowered his head and played with his mobile phone again.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
There was a sudden knock on the office door.
"Junze, are you there?"
A female voice came from outside the door, sounding familiar.
Lu Zhou's action of playing with his mobile phone stopped.
Xu Junze silently glanced at Lu Zhou, and whispered, "It's Jiayan." ”
Lu Zhou: "......"
He slipped his phone into his trouser pocket and got up from the couch.
"Don't bother, let's talk, I'm leaving."
Xu Junze: "......"
Why did this kid run away as soon as he heard that his ex-girlfriend was coming?
The person who deliberately wants to sign Li Jiayan to the new film culture is not ...... His own requirements?
Xu Junze really couldn't understand what Lu Zhou was thinking.
But at this time, Lu Zhou had already buttoned up the peaked hat he had when he came, walked to the door, and pulled open the door of the office.
Li Jiayan only saw the lights in the office, and never heard a response from inside, thinking that no one was inside, and was about to leave, but at this moment, the door in front of him was opened from the inside.
She slowly raised her eyes, and then a look of surprise flashed across her face, and she froze in place.
"Lu Zhou?" There was surprise in her tone.
It's been a long time.
Lu Zhou was still holding the doorknob with his hand, and what caught his eye was Li Jiayan's familiar face.
"Jiayan." He said hello casually, smiled and asked knowingly, "Looking for Junze?" ”
The meeting came too suddenly, Li Jiayan was full of surprise in her heart at the moment, she was a little stunned, she didn't react completely, and subconsciously nodded "um" when she heard the words.
"He's in there, go." Lu Zhou responded, then opened the door and turned sideways to give her way.
Li Jiayan didn't move, and after reacting, he asked, "...... you Is this leaving? ”
Lu Zhou nodded: "Yes." ”
Li Jiayan's excitement slowly turned to loss, she subconsciously glanced at the time of her mobile phone, and then showed a good-looking smile at him, and said, "Have you eaten?" If there's no urgency, why don't you have dinner together and then leave? ”
Lu Zhou lowered his eyes and looked at her for a while, and said, "No, I made an appointment with someone else at night." ”
Li Jiayan had an impulse to ask who he had made an appointment with, but after thinking about it, it was not appropriate to ask like this, so he held back his words.
She bit her lower lip and smiled regretfully, "Okay, next time." ”
Lu Zhou nodded, smiled softly at her, and said, "Okay, next time I have a chance to come over, I invite you to have dinner with Junze." ”
Li Jiayan: "......" pulled Xu Junze in again.
Xu Junze, who was in the office, looked at the two people who were not in or out at the door, how to look at the atmosphere, how subtle.
"Haven't you been busy lately?" It was a rare meeting, and Li Jiayan still subconsciously said one more greeting.
"It's busy, indeed, how about you? Are you still adjusting to your new job? Lu Zhou replied with her words.
"Still adapting." Li Jiayan pursed her lips and smiled, and then asked hesitantly: "The skit I played is online, ...... you Have you seen it? ”
"I was just in the conference room, and Junze showed it to me." Lu Zhou smiled, "The performance is good, the data is very good, come on." ”
Li Jiayan was praised and smiled comfortably, "I will work hard." ”
As she spoke, she finally gave him a spot in the doorway and chuckled at him.
"Don't delay your time, next time you come over, let's talk in detail, I'll go to Junze to talk about some work." She said.
"Okay." Lu Zhou smiled back, turned around and walked out of the office door.
Li Jiayan stood in place and looked at his back as he drifted away, I don't know if it was because of "what I can't get is always in turmoil", she felt that he seemed to have become more handsome recently, and he was hormones.
"Lu Zhou!"
Suddenly, she called out to him again.
Lu Zhou stopped and looked back inexplicably.
Li Jiayan smiled and said: "The stage of "Sold Out" is superb, in my heart, you are the real number one." ”
Lu Zhou looked at her silently for a moment, and it was obvious that she watched "Star Movement 1+1".
He smiled and bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you." ”
With that, he turned around and walked away without stopping.
Li Jiayan was in a good mood, turned around and entered Xu Junze's office, "Hello, come to talk to you about changing the theme of the next short drama." ”
"......" Xu Junze pursed his lips and was silent for a while, smiled and said, "Don't change." ”
Li Jiayan raised her eyebrows, "Why?" I don't want to make this kind of brain-dead drama anymore, I want to change to a less low-grade one, you can ask a screenwriter to help me write a less exaggerated one, right? ”
Xu Junze: "I just discussed the new plan with Lu Zhou, and now the company is mainly promoting this down-to-earth sinking market theme. ”
Li Jiayan frowned, "Why?" ”
Xu Junze: "Many decisions are made considering the company's future development, in short, you just listen to our arrangement first." ”
Li Jiayan: "......"
Obviously, she is not popular yet, and she has no say in what she wants to film.
She couldn't help but murmur silently in her heart: Bear with it, try to get through, you must stand at the same height as him! By then, you'll have everything you want!
Thanks to the Blood Patriarch for the 200 starting coins!
