Chapter 193: Preparing for an Epic Documentary! Where the sun and the moon shine and the rivers go, they are all Han soil!
Director Zhou was slightly embarrassed.
They are all people with a level, and the people who can hold meetings are basically the director and above.
But in the face of this kind of thing, they still made an official tone, because it was really a cross-line.
Director Zhou's proposal was unanimously approved.
"Director Zhou is right! You have a good relationship with Director Su! Let's talk more! ”
In fact, this does not mean that they are incompetent.
The point is that they really don't know much about this aspect.
Because it's all in the educational sector, it's definitely a bit of a mystery to be involved in the discussion of making movies now.
"That's right, Director Zhou said it very well! Children's channels have always been the object of our attention, shooting movies, cooperation programs, you come to talk about it... Of course, I will also say hello to the head of the publicity department, and this is all for the next generation. ”
Are you busy with co-authoring?
Director Zhou sighed.
If you tell yourself directly, you may be afraid of refusal.
In fact, after all, this is two departments, and the broadcast copyright on the tip of the tongue was so happy before.
I didn't do anything for Su Yi.
There are more and more favors owed.
"Okay, let's celebrate Director Zhou in advance!"
There was a round of applause.
The military order has been issued!
·····
Bayi Factory.
Director Zhang looked at the director in the conference room.
But there was some helplessness.
It's quiet.
Yesterday, the leader came out of the oolong, but Director Zhang didn't dare to mention it, and no one dared to say it.
But the next day the order was given.
I want to make a movie that has something to do with the war abroad.
Bayi Film Studio was originally for filming, so naturally it was nothing.
But the director of the factory did not dare to take it.
Either you are not famous, afraid of no investment, or you don't have the ability to direct.
"Why don't you speak? What a chance this is! Someone said before that the TV series of Soldier Assault can be filmed casually. It's just that the script is good! Okay, this time I'll give you a chance! ”
After hearing this, one of the directors muttered a few words in a low voice.
"Isn't there a good script yet!"
"Don't have a good script? Do they still use scripts for their business? ”
Director Zhang snorted.
The director opened his mouth and didn't speak again.
In fact, he wants to say that even if it is an adaptation of real events, it must be a good script.
But he doesn't have the ability to do it himself, so there's no need to say those useless words again.
"Factory director, it's not that we don't dare to involve those soldiers! Our seniors and comrades-in-arms dare not show their cowardice, I am confident, but we must also consider the impact! Now, although the rabbit detonated this matter, whoever shoots it may not be low at the box office. But if it fails, the heart of suicide is gone. ”
Director Zhang knew that Su Yi was going to shoot the Hexi Corridor, and he still had bullets on hand.
You don't necessarily have time.
Crucially, people don't necessarily come.
Director Zhang began to think about it in his heart.
"Director, how much is the investment?"
This is also the most critical question.
"The preliminary estimate is 300 million."
Three hundred million?
It's about the same as Wuji, and it should be enough.
That's a lot of money!
Some people get excited, while others don't dare to try.
"The leader said, how can there be a film of the army without the participation of the army? For this shooting, the army can provide a lot of shooting props, as well as extras! ”
The more Director Zhang said, the more no one interrupted.
Large scale, large investment.
More stress!
Look at what the rabbit has become now?
Director Zhang sighed.
A good director is much harder to find than a good actor!
····
2006, end of April.
The cold winter is coming to an end, but the rabbit's heat has not diminished in the slightest.
The rabbit has been playing for several weeks, although it has now been changed to two episodes a week, which is slower than the original Soldier Assault.
But the response has been overwhelming.
Books about that foreign war were almost completely swept away.
Especially students.
The most discussed thing in school now is the rabbit.
CCTV's official media identity, coupled with Su Yi's personal influence and propaganda.
directly made this cartoon have a higher popularity.
The copyright of the rabbit's dolls, especially in modern history, after the establishment of the country.
All kinds of dolls have also begun to become popular all over the country.
Hairy bears, Hans cats, bald eagles, footpot chickens, etc.
Of course, some animals that represent the country are abused when they buy them back.
The most popular are rabbits in various forms, wearing military uniforms and white cloaks.
are all made vividly, the cost is high, and the sale is expensive, but the popularity is scary, basically with the promotion of the plot, a new shape has been produced, and the factory has been booked out before it is produced.
Some second-hand ones are even more expensive!
Peripheral books, comics, CDs, etc., have spawned many industries.
The children's channel, which was unable to make ends meet, made a lot of money with its copyright.
Su Yi is not a businessman, but he also knows some means.
The copyright of the dolls, the copyright of the comics, and so on, are all separated.
At that time, when discussing business, Director Zhuang also followed.
It can be described as terrifying.
Although he is more concerned about the attention of the children's channel, whether he can convert ratings into money is also one of the most important indicators!
Su Yi is now the acting director, and he can't talk about money alone, so he dragged Director Zhuang to go.
Doll copyright offer, ten years, 20 million!
Director Zhuang almost didn't spit out the tea he drank.
Advertisers also seem to have misheard.
Comic copyright offer, ten years, 10 million!
Ten years of copyright!
And that's not even counting the clothes, school bags, pens, and the like.
Although the copyright of those is lower, for Director Zhuang, it is astronomical.
He even thinks that the previous advertising costs were already high.
Anyway, it can be flat, not at a loss, and a small profit.
Fortunately, before he came, Su Yi had already explained to Director Zhuang and asked him to behave normally.
Director Zhuang pretended to be calm, but in fact, his heart was already turbulent.
No wonder. At the beginning, Su Yi had to pay such a high price for everything he filmed.
Co-authors are all profitable!
If you can make money like this, who cares if you spend money?
But what surprised Director Zhuang the most was that these businessmen all agreed!
In this world, Director Zhuang can't understand it.
20 million, can you earn it back?
As a result, the developers who didn't agree at that time regretted it.
There is a small company that now has factories in four places in a row, and this is not enough to sell!
It's not a matter of being without strategic vision.
This is something that does not trust Su Yi very much! Although you can't be superstitious in doing business, it's important to keep up with the heat.
Now the children's channel is busier than before.
Director Zhuang sat in the office and actually answered more than a dozen calls in a row.
Then I came back to my senses apologetically.
looked at a toy merchant in front of him, Boss Liu.
He can not see everyone else, but there is gossip that Boss Liu in front of him is Liu Shishi's father.
When Su Yi first debuted, he was a little unclear with the three women, although they were all rumors, many people were still cautious.
Even Su Yi himself didn't know.
"I'm here to thank you and Director Su."
Father Liu said with a smile.
made a lot of money this time, in fact, he also knew that it was because of his daughter's relationship.
But he didn't go through the back door, Liu Shishi didn't say hello, but operated normally.
Liu Shishi is still in class, and since she participated in the night banquet of the Tang Palace, she has rejected many crews.
Improve your professional skills.
Because Liu Shishi knows that it is useless to take on so many plays now, especially bad dramas, in addition to the practice in the Northern Dance, he also followed a few teachers who went to the drama to learn acting skills.
Su Yi is busy with work, but he hasn't seen the third girl for a while, except for the last time he presented the award to Liu Yifei, the rest is busy.
"It's okay, Director Su said, do business legally, don't worry about that. Without your support, our show wouldn't have been as successful. ”
Director Zhuang said with a smile.
"Lao Zhuang, come here! Something to tell you! ”
Director Qian of the Military Channel walked over.
"You're busy, I'm leaving. I didn't bring anything, and I knew that you couldn't accept gifts, and this little gadget was not valuable, so you accepted it. ”
Liu Shishi's father stood up and brought a set of limited-edition knick-knacks.
The market price is worth a few thousand, but that's not enough for a gift.
It's the Rabbit Border War Collector's Edition, some of them have simulated flames on their bodies, some are prostrate in front of the bunker, and there is an explosives bag in their hands.
If there were other things, Director Zhuang really wouldn't accept them, even if Su Yi came to persuade him, it would be useless.
Seeing these figures, I was really tempted.
It's really good-looking, and it's worth it to sell at a higher price.
"Okay, I'll give it to you at the market price when the time comes—or I really don't want it."
Director Zhuang shook hands with him and picked up these figures, and he was definitely not interested in those comic figures in his childhood.
But.. It's their own memory!
"Director Hu called you, where did Director Su go? Said to have a meeting. ”
Let the director of military money find himself for a meeting?
That's a real deal.
"Director Su is on Capital Satellite TV, when discussing the filming of the documentary, Director Luo should also be there, I heard that the investment cost this time is not small, and it will be filmed as a movie."
Director Zhuang nodded and picked up the phone.
·····
Capital TV.
Wang Xiaoling looked at the script in front of him without saying a word,
"Lao Wang, show some attitude! What's wrong? Do you want to ask for three or four times? Let me tell you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Director Su said, you have to be. I'm optimistic about you—"
I was ready to go to the filming stage immediately, and I had all the contacts with the local government, as well as the people in the army.
can cooperate, it's time to purchase costumes and select shooting personnel.
When Lao Wang learned the news, he refused.
"What are you worried about?"
Su Yi was also a little surprised.
"It's not like it used to be! Director Hu has agreed, so don't worry about it. ”
Director Luo said with a smile, seeing that his former friends still had a chance, he was also in a good mood.
"I'm relieved of what happened in the past. is mainly afraid of delaying Su Yi's documentary. ”
This past incident hit him hard.
is even a little self-defeating, as if it is an old horse of the fifth class of the grassland in the soldiers' assault.
It used to be brilliant, but now it has been silent for many years, and it is a little unconfident.
"Director Wang, you know. The most important thing in my documentary is to shoot scenery and culture, and not only ancient culture, but also geography and customs. ”
Su Yi said sincerely.
In fact, Lao Wang's shooting skills are no worse than himself.
It's even better in some ways.
In the case of not being a traverser, the tip of the tongue filmed was very popular, and the first few issues were made by Su Yi, but in fact, Lao Wang took people to shoot later.
In fact, the real director of several issues of the collection is also Wang Xiaoling!
And Wang Xiaoling is actually a photographer who was born and later changed careers.
even worked as a producer, and before entering the system, he was still an executive in Ying's Film and Television Group Company.
After seeing a few of his works, Su Yi didn't want to give him a chance.
but also impressed by his talent.
Documentaries, filming and scripts are just as important.
With the quality of a movie, we can 'recreate the original scene'!
The life and battle of the Xiongnu, the strength of the Han Empire.
Strong man Sheng Tang Gangming!
These dynasties are all what Su Yi likes, but the main theme of this era is still advocating the Qing Dynasty.
It is undeniable that Zuo Zongtang has merit.
But there were also many places ceded by the Qing Dynasty.
After Su Yi 'overthrows' the title of tyrant of Qin Shi Huang, although there are many disputes, it also changes the stereotypical memories of many people.
It is worth mentioning that the education department has changed this statement in the latest edition of the textbook.
Merit is merit, and passing is excessive!
And this Hexi Corridor is not just to introduce Zhang Qian's envoy.
There are also Wei Qing and Huo Quai's conquest of the Huns!
There have been quite a few similar documentaries and films in the West.
It's all about the ancient Roman Empire, and it even set off a wave of ancient Roman heat.
See Rome?
We have an empire that is so powerful or even stronger than theirs!
The Han Empire!
Those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away!
Where the sun and the moon shine and the rivers go, they are all Han soil!
The Han soldiers are here, don't dare to move!
Move, destroy the country!
Such history and culture must be fully displayed to the audience.
This is a documentary from my own country, and I must have the most perfect lineup.
Although the previous documentaries were also very good, there were some 'commercial' elements missing after all.
After thirteen years, Zhang Qian returned to the Han Empire and saw the majestic Chang'an City!
The magnificent scene of the confrontation between the two armies of Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and the Xiongnu must be shown!
What is not lacking in the Dragon Kingdom is culture, but in the previous life, there was a lack of documentaries that integrated various elements, resulting in young people being uninterested, and the elderly and children being a little unable to understand it.
Now, with his own fame, he must turn it into an epic documentary!
Some professional actors will even be invited.
With such an 'ambition', Wang Xiaoling has also become the best choice.
"Director Wang, our country's documentaries are vacant, and they are also backward! I can now shoot movies with a box office of hundreds of millions, sell sky-high TV series, and even sell tens of millions of animation rights, but in my heart, documentaries are an indispensable part. It is also an important way to show our culture! It's as important as public service announcements. ”
Looking at Su Yi's serious appearance, think about his current achievements.
Lao Wang was finally moved.
"A. . . Forgotten people don't have so many hypocrisy. But since you agreed, you must show the essence or lose the face of Director Su Yi. ”
Wang Xiaoling trembled and took out a cigarette.
He could understand what Su Yi meant, what Su Yi said now could not pass casually.
Epic documentary!
Shoot it like a movie!
Tens of millions of investments, and may continue to invest!
His cool heart was awakened again.
Once upon a time, that blood seemed to be back.
"Happy cooperation, Director Wang."
"Happy cooperation, Director Su!"
Wang Xiaoling finally knows why Su Yi can shoot so many shocking works, talent is one thing, his great ambition, his sincerity, these are the elements of success!
·····
Central Channel.
Director Hu's office.
"Rare guest! Also a distinguished guest! Come. Director Zhang, the last time you came, I happened to be away. ”
Chief Hu spoke very politely.
Although it is not a system, they have been in contact with each other before.
For example, this military and agricultural channel used to be a children's, military, and agricultural channel.
Director Zhuang and Director Qian have also worked together, and they both came out of the army.
At that time, the channel was under dual management, the central station and the army.
The Bayi Film Studio and the Military Channel are both managed by the Military Art Center, and they are regarded as the same department.
Now there are also layers of relationships, and they have never been completely separated.
"Hello, Chief Hu. Just call me Xiao Zhang. ”
Director Zhang knew that his weight would definitely not be enough.
When I called the General Administration at that time, it was also the leaders above who pulled the line.
"Sit down and say don't be so polite."
Chief Hu beckoned a few people to sit down.
"I'm a soldier and I'm not good at communication, so I'll just say it. The rabbit cartoon is on fire, although the soldier assault has ended, but the heat has not decreased, the recruitment work is very smooth, the leader is very happy, but... For that war abroad, we wanted to make a film. ”
To shoot a movie, I must be looking for Su Yi.
Everyone knows it.
But we all know that Su Yi's ambition now is to make a documentary.
And people are still hanging the chief director of the movie to let the bullets fly.
"We're not in a hurry, but we just want to make an appointment."
booking
Difficult!
Su Yi is still the audit director of the National Film Bureau.
There is no way to order, otherwise it will be equivalent to pushing Su Yi away.
"Director Hu, Director Zhou of the Education Department said that I agreed with you-"
Someone from the education sector?
Director Zhang's heart jumped suddenly.
It can't be because of Su Yi, right?
He didn't know the relationship between the two, but with Su Yi's current fame, it wasn't impossible.
There is a good saying, if you buy up or not down, it must make sense if you buy expensive.
The busier Su Yi is, the more capable he is!
"Filming too?"
Director Hu and the two channel directors looked at each other.
In fact, now the children's channel cooperates with the education department.
The Military Channel is exactly what the name suggests.
So this meeting called both of them.
"That's right! It is also the task of the leadership. The rabbit is popular, and the students discuss it every day, but the related movies are too old to attract the visual impact of young people. So this time, we want to come up with some education funds to invite Su Yi to make a movie! ”
Hearing Director Zhou's words, Director Zhang was stunned.
·····
Huayi Brothers.
"Hello, I am Wang Zhongjun from Huayi Brothers. The last time we met, it was like this, we wanted to invest 500 million to make a movie about overseas wars-"
Wang Zhongjun confidently called Su Yi.
This time it's full of sincerity.
Ready to give Su Yi a 25% dividend!
No matter what hatred, you still have to look at 'money'.
And looking for Su Yi, the actor fee can be saved a lot, and he can save more money with the director, which can be regarded as saving money for the investor.
With Su Yi's reputation, he will definitely be able to make a lot of money.
Such a business is cost-effective.
However, his wishful thinking fell through.
"I don't have much time so far, I'm going to a meeting, I'm a little busy, let's talk about it again."
Actually hung up like this?
You know, this number was only obtained thanks to Zheng Xiaolong's relationship!
I didn't save any face!
He hesitated.
dialed Chen Kaige's phone.
You are awesome, but the heat of this foreign war must be rubbed!
Can you make a movie?
It just so happens that Chen Kaige is idle!
Thank you all for your support! Still asking for votes, thanks!
