Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

Yao Hua stood up and walked to the study,"I'm going to work on the script, call me for lunch."

""Okay."

Yao Hua closed the door of the study, sat on the mahogany chair, and began to conceive.

The purpose of the short film is to promote Peking Opera to the public, especially young people. How to attract young people?

Create a Peking Opera script?

This is definitely not possible. The promotional short film is to make people who have no feeling for Peking Opera interested.

What to do?

Yao Hua crossed his fingers and hugged the back of his head, leaning back against the back of the chair.

Alas, his creations have always been academic and traditional. Now it is a bit difficult for him to think about selling points and attract young people.

After thinking for a while, Yao Hua's eyes lit up.

During the Spring Festival this year, tourism promotion videos in various provinces were very popular.

A short video attracted tens of millions of tourists. In the final analysis, it was the visual and auditory effects that attracted young people.

So he did that.

Use Peking Opera costumes, makeup, and music to enhance the audio-visual effects and attract young people in a short time.

……

At the same time.

Chen Xiao is quickly organizing the script of"Farewell My Concubine".

This movie is very suitable for promoting Peking Opera to young people.

What is the purpose of the promotion? It is to allow people who are not interested in Peking Opera to watch it.

This movie not only shows the beauty of Peking Opera, but also has some touching parts outside of Peking Opera.

It is not like a movie, but more like life.

From the eve of the Anti-Japanese War to the Cultural Revolution, the people with miserable fates in this historical period permeate every detail.

Children who can't stand the abuse of the troupe.

Dieyi who can't live without being crazy.

Juxian who has always been kind but whose life was taken away by the times.

One by one, the little people kidnapped by history are not spared in the torrent of the tragedy of the times.

Especially when it comes to the Cultural Revolution, he doesn't recognize his relatives, and his personality distortion is displayed to the extreme.

Believers in art are forced to become betrayers of art.

……

Chen Xiao sighed.

When the public is moved by the stories of joy and sorrow, and the history of collective memories, they will also pay attention to Peking Opera itself.

Write!

However, the next few days will be for discussion, not filming. Just write a simple script first.

As he was writing furiously.

Director Li of the Ministry of Culture has contacted several experts in opera research, data statistics, and marketing to establish an advisory committee.

Just waiting for the 7 screenwriters and directors to arrive on the 8th.

……

A week passed quickly.

On the evening of October 7,

Chen Xiao estimated that the total box office for the National Day holiday should be out.

He sat down at his computer desk and prepared to check the statistics on Maoyan Movie.

However, as soon as he opened the webpage, he saw the top three hot searches:

"Titanic broke the total box office record in just 7 days!"

"Titanic will be released for another 18 days, what is its limit?"

"Titanic grossed 6.14 billion in seven days, surpassing the total box office record of 540 million!"

Click on the third one and see.

Netizens are so enthusiastic, like they won the world championship in football.

"We won the championship!!!"

"I believed from the beginning that you can do it!"

"Are there any box office souvenirs? I will definitely buy them all!"

"Howling with excitement, he was scolded by the neighboring dormitory

"Chen Xiao is the world's number one! The future is promising!"

Chen Xiao was very calm and closed the webpage.

The big hit was expected.

He just wanted to count the money and think about how to spend it.

The previous conservative estimate was 5 billion box office, and now it seems that it should be able to soar to 8 billion.

The producer gets 35%, and as a director and screenwriter, he gets 5% of the share from the producer.

The total is estimated to be 80*35%*5%=140 million.

As for Diamond, Uncle Zhang said in the evening that the net income in the last seven days reached 420 million, which directly completed the planned sales volume for the next six months!

It is estimated that he can get a share of 5 million next month.

As for shares, dividends are only distributed at the end of each year. , let’s not consider this part of the money for now.

Both of these items will be credited next month, a total of 145 million.

It’s 50 million more than what was calculated before.

Then I’ll buy a villa first.

Buy it by the lake.

How great it is to get up in the morning, open the curtains, and see the turquoise water of the lake!

Then buy some gifts for my parents, and save the remaining money for future filming of movies and TV series.

The last item is the sales of derivatives. The originally planned 4.5 million has been credited.

He doesn’t plan to continue selling peripheral products and other derivatives.

In front of the box office, it’s just a drop in the bucket.

Tomorrow morning, I’ll go to the Ministry of Culture first.

Then use the 4.5 million earned from selling derivatives to pick up a car!

……

The next morning.

Chen Xiao brought the script to the building of the Art Department of the Ministry of Culture.

Under the guidance of the staff, he came to a huge conference room.

In the middle of the conference room is an oval long table, and each seat is equipped with a microphone.

There are two rows of tables on each side.

The leaders should be having a meeting in the middle, and the others are sitting on the side.

The staff helped him pull out the chair at the long oval table in the middle and asked him to sit down.

After sitting for a while, six middle-aged men followed three staff members in.

Seeing Chen Xiao, everyone's eyes lit up.

Titanic has been a big hit recently, and it broke the box office record yesterday. Of course, everyone has seen his photos.

This guy looks more energetic than in the photo!

A tall, thin, middle-aged man wearing glasses came over, smiled and stretched out his hand and said,"Hello, Director Chen, nice to meet you, I am Director Fang Rong"

"Hello, Director Fang. Nice to meet you."Chen Xiao stretched out his hand and shook hands with him.

Fang Rong's name was well known to everyone.

Many anti-Japanese war dramas and historical dramas broadcast on TV were his works.

Fang Rong continued to smile and said,"I watched your"Titanic" on October 1st. It was really a masterpiece! Later I watched it twice and learned a lot from it."

Chen Xiao smiled and said politely,"Director Fang, you are too kind. I learned everything from my predecessors. I have watched your dramas since I was a child and they have given me a lot of inspiration."

Fang Rong smiled heartily when he heard this, and he had more expectations for the young man in front of him.

He stood sideways next to Chen Xiao and introduced other people to him,"This is Yao Hua, the director of the Film and Television Department of the Peking Opera Theater."

"Hello, Director Yao"

"Director Chen is young and promising!" Yao Hua smiled and shook hands with him,"I watched your Titanic. If a talent like Director Chen can participate in the production of the short film, it will be of great benefit to our promotion of Peking Opera culture!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people around him changed slightly.

Director Yao is the best candidate for the chief screenwriter of the promotional short film.

He said this, it seems that he wants to keep Chen Xiao.

But soon, everyone felt relieved.

Judging from Titanic, with Chen Xiao's screenwriter and director skills, even if he doesn't understand Peking Opera, he is a very good deputy. He can put forward market-oriented opinions for the script and provide ideas for the camera.

It is right to keep him.

The seven candidates greeted each other, exchanged a few polite words, and sat down one after another.

A staff member came over and said respectfully:"Director Li is in a meeting, please wait a few minutes."

Of course Chen Xiao has no problem.

He has nothing to do today, except coming here to buy a car, so just wait.

Although the others have their own jobs and every second counts, who is Li Zhiming?

The director of the Art Department, the highest supervisor of literature and art.

He is in charge of all funds and policies.

Not to mention waiting for a while, even if they are asked to wait here for a day, they have to wait obediently.

The seven people are all behind-the-scenes staff in the film and television industry. They sat together and soon started chatting.

Their topic, of course, was"Titanic", which had just broken the box office record yesterday.
