Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

It was a little after eleven o'clock in the evening.

Chen Xiao was sitting in front of the computer, eating barbecue and watching movies.

If he wanted to go into the film and television industry in the future, he must of course understand the film and television industry in this world.

Now it seems that some of the films in this world overlap with the original world, with fewer films and more movies.

In general, there are fewer high-quality films.

It is probably because the level of technological development in this world is high, but the cultural level is a little weak.

Sending him here, is it to let him shoulder the responsibility of cultural revitalization? Tsk tsk, so hard.

Dog system, hurry up and reward him with something good.

He had just swallowed the grilled squid when a message popped up on his phone.

He picked it up and saw that it was Uncle Zhang asking him if it was convenient for him to talk.

Of course it was convenient.

Chen Xiao called directly.

"Good evening, Uncle Zhang."

"Good evening, Xiao Chen. The company's senior management watched it tonight and it was very good. Director Shu is willing to let Yida Company schedule the film. During the National Day holiday, we will give you a 20% scheduling rate!"

"Great, thank you Uncle Zhang and Director Shu."

Zhang Jianhua raised his eyebrows.

This kid is like this every time.

He says wow, great.

His tone is as calm as if nothing has happened.

He must know how rare it is to combine the three keywords Yida Company, the National Day holiday, and a 20% screening rate, right?

Calm, right?

Then here's some exciting news!

Zhang Jianhua smiled and continued,"Xiao Chen, Director Shu estimates that our film is likely to be among the top ten or even top five this year, and take 1.5 billion at the box office!"

Chen Xiao smiled,"No way?"

1.5 billion?

I heard that Director Shu has invested in many companies.

It seems that he only invests and rarely asks about business, right?

《In the original world,"Titanic" was broadcast for less than two years, and the global box office soared to 1.8 billion US dollars! It is the first movie in the world to reach the 1 billion US dollar mark.

The film he made is blessed with high technology and master-level directing skills, and the effect is even better.

According to his understanding of the market and the opinions of the movie emperors, Leo and others.

Even if this film is only released in China for the time being, it is absolutely impossible for it to be less than 5 billion box office this year!

However, saying this now is a bit like bragging.

There is no point in saying more.

The leaders of the Diamond Company are waiting for more than a month to receive the surprise!

Zhang Jianhua didn't know what he was thinking, and thought that when he said"no way", he meant, it won't be that high, right?

He smiled kindly,"Don't worry, after all, President Shu has invested a lot of money in Yida, and knows a lot about the film industry. She said there is 1.5 billion, so there should be"

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Zhang."

"OK, then you should prepare well. You have worked hard during this period, so I will give you a month off. I look forward to seeing this movie in the cinema during the National Day."

""Thank you, Uncle Zhang!"

The two hung up the phone.

Chen Xiao put down his phone and touched his forehead.

In any case, it is a good thing that Yida gave a 20% screening rate.

It takes time for public opinion to reverse. On the first day of the release, it would be a waste to give too much, and 20% is enough.

As for the second day and later, the theater will definitely make adjustments and increase the screening rate after seeing the sales situation.

Forget it, don't think about it.

This is the job of the distributor.

He is just a director who makes the film, why should he care so much.

Chen Xiao yawned.

Next, for the movie, contact Mr. Wang of Jiahao Film and Television and find a reliable distributor.

He will have a good rest for a while. Occasionally go to see how the derivatives are doing.

That's his own gold coin.

With this plan, Chen Xiao turned off the movie, washed up simply, and got into the quilt.

……

One month later.

Chen Xiao was watching TV series at home.

Suddenly his phone rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was Mr. Wang from Jiahao Films.

Hmm?

The distributor has been decided.

He also rejected Mr. Wang's invitation to sign.

What else?

Chen Xiao answered the phone with some confusion.

""Chen Xiao, good morning. Someone will call you later. It's from the Cultural Bureau. Please pick up the phone."

Chen Xiao was a little confused.

Cultural Bureau?

"Mr. Wang, what's going on?"

A sigh came from the other side."I don't know. They are looking for a screenwriter and a director. The film is under review these two days. Maybe there was a problem during the review. After you talk to the people above, can you call me back?"

"No problem."

The two hung up the phone.

Chen Xiao frowned and opened the browser.

He searched for the current relationship between the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television and the Ministry of Culture in this world.

These departments are often reformed, separated, and merged.

The relationship between the two needs to be confirmed.

Chen Xiao quickly scanned the webpage.

It turned out that the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television is affiliated with the Ministry of Culture.

Uncle Zhang had told him before that because of the public opinion, the company got the news and sent someone to review"Titanic".

Could it be that the person who would call him later was the"special person"?

Hiss - wouldn't something really go wrong?

He didn't shoot anything illegal or ideologically problematic...

Just then, the phone screen lit up and a call came from an unfamiliar number.

Chen Xiao slowly answered the call,"Hello."

A serious male voice came from the speaker

"Director Chen, hello. I am Li Zhiming, Director of the Art Department of the Ministry of Culture."

"Hello, Director Li"

"Director Chen, are you free to come to the Ministry of Culture and have a cup of tea?"

Hearing the other party's serious tone, Chen Xiao's back tightened.

For people who make movies, this person is a big boss.

The big boss wants to have tea with him...

He had just watched a movie about official struggles and mutual slaughter last night. Now listening to the serious voice on the other side, he felt a chill on his back for some reason.

As if noticing Chen Xiao's nervousness, the other party suddenly slowed down his tone.

"Director Chen, this is the case. Yesterday, I watched your movie on the recommendation of my subordinates. The visuals, camera movements, and story are all excellent. We contacted you today because our company wants to make a short film to promote opera, and we are looking for a director and screenwriter."

Chen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair. He quickly thought about what the other party said.

The other party did not say that he wanted to use him, but only said that he wanted to make a short film to promote opera.

It seems that he should be just one of the backup options.

The opportunity that came to his door, he should agree to it first and see what happens.

"OK! I'm willing to give it a try."

The other party smiled and said,"Then I'll set a time and let my assistant contact you."

"Okay, thank you Director Li for giving me this opportunity."

The other party seemed very satisfied with Chen Xiao's humble attitude and said with a smile:"Goodbye, Director Chen"

"Goodbye, Director Li."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiao stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.

An opera promotional video?
