Chapter 74: Inflated (Asking for Recommendation Votes!)
Berner has to think about it, and Li Qian waits.
On the same day, I met Huang Zhonglei, the No. 2 person of Huayang Media.
"Director Li, I have admired my name for a long time, the last time Zhang Jun came to Donghua, I didn't know how many more days to stay, so I hurried back, and I didn't even see you in person, what a pity. ”
As soon as they met, Huang Zhonglei lightly blamed Zhang Jun for the fact that Zhang Jun had a closed door last time, blaming him for not waiting in Donghua for two more days.
Mr. Huang was polite. ”
Li Qian smiled, he didn't expect Huang Zhonglei to come in person, which was unexpected.
However, no matter who comes, the conditions are still there.
After greeting for a while, Li Qian also repeated his request again.
To lead the project, Huayang Media can invest in a part, but it cannot interfere in the preparation and production of the film, and it will also have a schedule of New Year's Day at the end of December, with an initial 200 film copies.
This condition is more outrageous than the other.
But that's what he Huang Zhonglei did, and he fooled people first.
Ma Xiaogang is so good, it is impossible not to let the company interfere in his film.
"Director Li, this is no problem, "Assembly" can be released in early December, and the New Year's Day at the end of the month will be left to you. ”
Huang Zhonglei said with a smile, "In addition, the company will not interfere too much in your movie, but you still have to give priority to the company's actors, after all, they are all your own people." ”
The schedule can be adjusted at any time, and it can be postponed in advance.
It's useless to do it or not, and it's useless to talk about it in the vernacular.
Berner said something about the same, after all, they don't have an artist agency.
But Huayang... The internal intertwining is intricate, and the five big agents almost put the contradictions on the surface in order to compete for roles.
Even within the big brokers, there is a battle between the open and the dark.
Li Qian shook his head and said, "Mr. Huang, Director Ma's movies can't make your own decisions, let alone me." ”
The meaning was obvious, and the unhappiness in Huang Zhonglei's eyes flashed.
The vice chairman of Huayang Media came to invite him in person, and he refused unceremoniously.
However, he has played the role of interpersonal communication in Huayang for a long time, and Huang Zhonglei will not hang this matter on his face, and he is still full of smiles.
The two sides chatted casually for a while before taking their leave.
......
Looking at the back of Huang Zhonglei leaving, Li Qian suddenly felt a little arrogant.
Thinking that when I came to Hengdian in my senior year and opened a photography studio, I was still a very sleek person, climbing relationships and pulling business everywhere.
When it first opened, in order to get two SLRs and a business-level camera that were eliminated by them from a county-level TV station under Donghua, there was no shortage of relationships and benefits.
These three cameras supported Li Qian's photography studio.
9 into a new good thing, Kaifeng was not used a few times a year, and it was scrapped by the TV station.
If they don't scrap it, they won't have the money to buy a new one.
Now, just two months have passed, and he has rejected the vice chairman of Huayang Media so directly.
Don't even make excuses!
"Alas, it's really inflated!"
Li Qian smiled and sighed, this feeling of not having to deliberately drill camps, hypocrisy and snakes is too refreshing.
You can do whatever you want, say whatever you want, and don't care what others think, at least the vast majority of people don't have to care.
Iron has to be hard, otherwise Zhang Weiping can be dragged to the sky?
almost pointed at Yu Dong and Wang Changtian and scolded.
If Ma Xiaogang doesn't have his current results, he can't make a horse cannon, at most a pistol.
Do whatever you want, it's cool!
......
In the evening, Li Qian met Zhang Zhao, general manager of Guangxian Pictures.
After chatting for a while, Li Qian once again said his request.
"Wow, what a big breath!"
Zhang Zhao was taken aback by Li Qian's request.
A director, or a newcomer to the big screen, wants other investors not to interfere in the preparation and shooting process of the film.
This treatment is not available to everyone.
After all, the domestic film industry is a big investor, and the filming process does not interfere in the past, but there are very few who do not interfere in the preparation process.
However, Guangxian does not have an artist brokerage business, so he doesn't need to stuff people in.
As for 200 copies of film, the corresponding publicity scale.
It is risky and difficult.
After all, a film copy is shared by several screening halls in the same cinema, and how to maximize the use of each copy without wasting even the time of a copy requires negotiation with each theater to schedule the film.
After all, it's not just one movie for you, other movies have the same needs.
And the ground distribution is exactly what Guang Xian lacks.
However, all problems can be overcome.
As for the New Year's Day schedule, even if the two blockbusters are released half a month early, it will be a lot of pressure.
However, Zhang Zhao knew that Guangxian was definitely in a weak position compared to Bernard and Huayang, and maybe the other party had already contacted Li Qian.
If you hesitate, you may be the first to get on the board.
Guangxian has just set foot in the film and television industry, and there is really a lack of a director who can sell at the box office.
Even if you just show your potential, you have to gamble, anyway, you have nothing and you are not afraid of failure.
"No problem, we can meet all of Director Li's requirements. ”
Although he knew that Li Qian's request had exceeded what Wang Changtian said, "give him everything he wanted", Zhang Zhao still decided to agree first, and then go back and joke with Wang Changtian.
was so happy that he didn't even ask, which made Li Qian a little surprised.
Zhang Zhao said, "Director Li, rest assured, I am also a director, I know that professional things are left to professionals, we will never interfere in the preparation and shooting of the movie, and Guangxian has no contracted actors." ”
"As for publicity, we have the largest TV distribution network in the country, we have produced programs covering more than 300 TV stations across the country, and we have begun to establish terrestrial distribution networks in more than 50 cities across the country. ”
......
boasted about a lot of advantages of Guangxian Media, and just picked up the good ones.
Guangxian's biggest problem now is that there is no professional production team and a lack of ground distribution scale.
The former is easy to do, there is no shortage of professional behind-the-scenes talents in China, so many studios are on the verge of closure, and a large number of people have no jobs.
In terms of publicity, it is not said that in terms of TV station resources, Guangxian can be said to be the first in the country.
As for the lack of ground distribution capacity, Li Qian only needed to invest 200 copies in the early stage, which was not so great compared to those with a distribution scale of seven or eight hundred or nearly a thousand.
Berner waited for an afternoon and didn't reply, and it is estimated that there is a chance that there will be no play, so the only choice left is Guangxian.
"That's okay, since Mr. Zhang is so happy, I won't be hypocritical, let's say it first, and I'll joke about the specific matters when I officially determine the project of the movie. ”
Zhang Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll wait for Director Li's good news, if you have any needs, tell me at any time, and Guangxian will fully cooperate." ”
Li Qian smiled, "Definitely, I won't be polite to Mr. Zhang when the time comes." ”
Although it is only a second choice, Guangxian is also a good choice.
Guangxian now has a stronger need for good projects than Bernard, and there is no artist agency business.
In terms of propaganda ability, it is not weaker than Huayang Media and Bernard, and even stronger.
The distribution capacity is insufficient, but for a small-budget film, it is enough.
Enough freedom, and enough publicity!
The rest depends on the quality of your new film.
