Film award participants are generally divided into three categories.

One is the media people who grasp the current entertainment hotspots and are eager to come to a wave of big news......

One is to take advantage of the popularity of movie awards to rub a wave of stars on the red carpet......

The last category is the various film rights dealers.

The first [Southern California International Film Awards] was very LOW.

There were no participating films, except for Avery, who was snatched and pointed at the door of the head and forcibly pulled over. Except for Tashi, the rest of the judges are ordinary people, and basically the awards are all internally determined, except for one "The Dog on the Other Side of the Mountain", which is a mess.

The flow of people is also very small, basically except for the local people in Brazil, there are only Chinese tourists who come to see the bustle.

The jury lineup and participation lineup of the second [Southern California International Film Awards] are much stronger.

It's not just Chinese movies, but also European and Russian movies, and when you put them together, it's really like that.

There are also many directors who come from Huaxia to participate in the Academy Awards, which has increased tenfold compared with the previous one, but the fly in the ointment is that all of them are second- and third-tier directors who are ready to make a name for themselves and engage in publicity, and there are almost no first-line directors.

Seem......

The great directors of China have always regarded the [Southern California International Film Awards] as a LOW award in their hearts.

As for copyright holders, it's even more scarce.

More than 80 percent of the copyright owners are in the way of Avery. Tashi and other judges had a bad face to refuse, so they reluctantly came over to shout and shout, symbolically bought some copyrights at a low price, and coped with the matter.

The remaining twenty percent ......

Most of them came for Bi Feiyu.

The last "Seven Days of Killing" made a lot of 100 million dollars around the world, and the copyright owners made a small fortune, and this year's "Prisoner", these people came to take a look......

Outcome!

Groove ......

The film was also made too hard.

…………………………

November 14th.

Morning.

Outside the window, it was bustling and still very lively.

Scott stayed up all night.

That night, he received a lot of phone calls.

Those former Hollywood friends called themselves, and most of the calls were asking about "props......

In addition to friends, there are also the [Chief Prop Masters] of the former team, and on the phone, their voices are no longer as strong and almost commanding as before, but their voices are more gentle than ever.

Without exception, they tell themselves that they have new projects on hand that they are ready to work with......

He is obviously not a big hit internationally, and he is no different from before except for a trace of leftover news at the [Southern California International Film Awards].

But these people seem to realize something and begin to pay attention to themselves.

However, people are really weird sometimes......

In the past, when he received a call from these [familiar prop masters], he would subconsciously get excited, and then be flattered.

But this moment......

He was calmer than ever.

Calmly responding to these people, calmly finishing the phone call, and then eating breakfast, without the slightest sense of surprise.

He returned to the temporary studio of the [Southern California International Film Awards] and greeted everyone one by one......

He's found his track and has a team of his own.

In the studio, everyone was excited, and they all looked at the innermost office.

"The Prisoner" is the first work on their team, and at this moment, this work is negotiating the copyright with the copyright owners.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The office door opened.

Scott watched Zhang Sheng and Bi Feiyu send out several copyright owners.

As soon as I walked out the door, a new group of copyright owners walked in......

Scott followed the staff expectantly and nervously.

From Zhang Sheng's calm expression, they didn't know if the copyright of "Prisoner" was selling well or not......

A vague sense of concern arose in Scott's heart.

This concern is not that the quality of "The Prisoner" is bad, he is absolutely confident in the quality of "The Prisoner"!

However, "The Prisoner" is not "Seven Days of Killing......

It is too bloody, and too real, such a bloody movie is destined to be just a "small masterpiece", and it is impossible to release it in some countries.

Filmmakers are destined to have commercial considerations......

Ten o'clock in the morning......

The studios in the office are gone.

Scott just wanted to ask Bi Feiyu how the battle was doing, but soon, another group of people walked in.

Scott couldn't find a chance to talk to Zhang Sheng, Bi Feiyu and the others, and finally waited for a while, then stopped waiting and walked towards the door.

"Mr. Scott!"

"Hello Mr. Scott......"

"Hello, Mr. Scott...... I'm Mikhalkov, the director of Purple Sun, I saw the props you made, you are one of the most amazing prop masters I have ever seen, it was a pleasure to meet you, I am looking forward to the new film to work with you,"

“……”

Ten years in the industry.

Scott has never been more remarkable.

The directors along the way came to talk to him, all with warm smiles on their faces, which made Scott feel like he was living in an unreal world.

He saw in their eyes a deep sense of respect.

From morning to afternoon.

He finally realized what it meant to be an overnight success.

Especially he, an obscure little person who makes behind-the-scenes props, is so high-profile that he becomes more and more unreal.

Wait until after dinner......

He finally received a call from Zhang Sheng.

"Mr. Zhang......"

"Are you free? Mr. Scott! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"Okay, then you can come to the office......"

"Good!"

After answering the phone, Scott trotted all the way into the studio as soon as possible.

He saw that the staff were all looking at him with "surprise" eyes, and at the same time, he heard a burst of congratulations.

He scratched his head, dazed.

Followed by......

He knocked on the office door, and then saw several young people standing in the office.

One of the tall young men subconsciously stood up and greeted him with surprise on his face.

"Hello Mr. Scott, I'm Duke from [Dawning Games], and this is my assistant, ...... Vess."

"Ah, how ...... you guys"

Scott greeted a few people blankly, and then looked at Zhang Sheng.

saw Zhang Sheng smiling and inviting him to sit down.

"Mr. Zhang, they ......"

"They fell in love with our Prisoner and were going to adapt it into a first-person escape game......"

"Huh?"

"This game, they want to be their mastermind."

……………………

Dawning Games was founded in the summer of 2009.

It is a game studio founded by Duke, a rich second-generation and his friends who love games.

During this period, there was also a stand-alone game called "Paradise".

"Lineage" is not a hit, and it is not high on the single-player game list, but it has made [Dawning Games] earn nearly seven million dollars.

It is a successful case of their initial success in the game industry.

But they weren't satisfied.

In fact......

This time, the [Southern California International Film Awards] originally had two purposes, the first was to win the global copyright of "Seven Days of Killing", and the second was to get the American agency authorization of "Temple Run".

Therefore, they prepared a large sum of money.

However, when they saw "The Prisoner", they realized that this amount of money may not be enough, and it is very likely that they will overspend.

Duke still remembers how he felt when he walked out of the screening room......

It was an unprecedented thrill!

The movie "The Prisoner" is extremely bloody, and the opening scene shocks Duke!

How can a movie be made so crazy?

But......

Duke didn't vomit, after all, as Bi Feiyu's third work after "Seven Days to Kill", he still has expectations for this movie.

After reading it, he was keenly aware of the delicate mechanisms and the infiltrating plot of "The Prisoner", including the furnishings in the secret rooms......

Everything is suitable for a game.

It's more suitable than "Seven Days of Killing"!

After watching the movie, he asked his friends......

His friends were thrilled!

Window.

Sunset.

In the office, Duke and Scott started chatting, and the more they talked, the more he realized that he was right.

Scott is proficient in the clever design of various traps and props, and has an extremely large world view of the escape room game.

This can undoubtedly save a lot of detours for the development of the game "Prisoner......

"You talk first, I'll talk to those copyright dealers first......" Just when several people were chatting, Zhang Sheng's mobile phone rang, and after answering the phone, Zhang Sheng had a little apology on his face.

"Mr. Zhang Sheng, you must not sell the game copyrights of "Prisoner" and "Seven Days Kill", we are sincere and talk about cooperation with you......"

"Don't worry, I'm in the office next door, if there's anything, you can come to me directly......" Zhang Sheng nodded with a smile after looking at Duke's expression.

"Okay!"

…………………………

Walk out of the office of "The Prisoner".

Zhang Sheng walked into another office.

In another office, a crowd of people was packed.

"My Sassy Girlfriend Sadako" director Xin Xiaoqi and starring Zhang Panpan are at a loss in the face of these filmmakers.

When I saw Zhang Sheng come in......

Xin Xiaoqi greeted him excitedly: "Mr. Zhang, you are here, our movie seems to be on fire......"

Zhang Sheng nodded, and before he officially greeted these filmmakers, his mobile phone rang again.

He answered the phone.

Subsequently......

I saw that it was Avery. Tashi called.

Zhang Sheng showed a slightly apologetic expression on the faces of several filmmakers, and answered the phone first next to him.

"Mr. Zhang Sheng, where are you? God, what about you? ”

"I'm in the makeshift studio, what's wrong Avery. Mr. Tashi? ”

"There are Hollywood companies that want to buy out the remake rights of "Seven Days to Kill", and the price is an astonishingly high price of 10 million US dollars......"

"Huh?"

"They have already come, I am at the door, if you are not free, you can let Mr. Bi Feiyu come over to receive you first......

“……”

(Continue to guarantee the bottom two...... It's really not bad...... ）
