Chapter 238 Humph, Want to Escape?

The topic returned to normal, and Yang Ruoqian finally recovered from his depression.

After receiving the list of directors sent by Cheng Fei, he carefully reviewed the detailed information of each director from top to bottom.

"The first director... has a good reputation, a wide network of contacts, and has shot many well-known works. He also has some experience in directing large-budget productions, and even went abroad to study how to direct a science fiction film."

In the document, the introduction is followed by the director's photo and detailed introduction, including what works he has shot, and even his own photo.

After just a glance, Yang Ruoqian silently typed the three words "unqualified" behind the person's information column.

"The conditions are very good, this kind of person can be eliminated directly."

It's not that Yang Ruoqian dislikes the director's conditions are too good - this time the filming is to completely follow the old path of Yuefu's failure. What kind of director does Yuefu use, Yang Ruoqian will use the same kind of director.

The director who filmed "The Fortress of the Magic City" is the type of middle-of-the-road, occasionally shooting one or two hit movies, but most of the time he is unknown.

The first director's conditions are obviously much better than the one who filmed "Fortress of the Demon City".

"The second one... is a female director, one of the veteran directors, recognized as a powerful director in the industry. Very good, but still unqualified."

Most of the directors ranked in front of Cheng Fei have at least 3 or more movies in their resumes, and the public will at least feel familiar with their names.

Not only do they have achievements, but they also have a lot of resources in their hands. As long as they are invited to join the crew, many troublesome things that need to be done later will not be troublesome.

Yang Ruoqian quickly flipped down the list and turned directly to the middle part, skipping the veteran directors who looked very powerful at first glance.

As expected, the conditions of the directors ranked behind are slightly worse than those of the directors above.

"This director's resume is a little worse than Yuefu's, so I'll decline it."

"Well, it's a little better than Yuefu's, so I'll keep it for later. If there's no suitable candidate, I'll take him."

"This one... looks good, to be confirmed."

After reading the resumes of several directors, Yang Ruoqian suddenly discovered a very interesting phenomenon, that is, there is basically no "science fiction" element in the introductions of these directors.

Even if this word occasionally appears, it only says that they have studied abroad, or have a lot of experience in watching and studying science fiction movies, but no one dares to pat their chests and guarantee that they can be competent for movies of this theme.

"It seems that our film industry has never produced a real science fiction film. Although "Fortress of the Magic City" is under the banner of science fiction, it has been expelled from the "science fiction book" by angry audiences."

After a director tried this theme and lost a lot, in order to avoid being slapped in the face or being held accountable afterwards, it is understandable that others are more conservative in their introductions.

After looking through the information of several directors, a name suddenly attracted Yang Ruoqian's attention.

"Guo Fan... has made fewer movies, but overall, he is basically at the same level as the director of "Fortress of the Magic City."

"And he also has no experience in shooting big-budget, big-production, big-scene movies."

Now, Yang Ruoqian has gathered all the elements of Yuefu Group's failure, and he just needs to wait for failure.

He doesn't believe that he can succeed by completely copying the failure of others!

As the saying goes, those who learn from me will live, and those who imitate me will die. Yang Ruoqian is now running all the way on the road to death.

After deciding on the candidate, Yang Ruoqian marked Guo Fan's name, took a screenshot and sent it to Cheng Fei.

"Mr. Cheng, I think this Director Guo is very good. Is he the one?"

Cheng Fei, who had been waiting on the other side of the screen, immediately sent a reply: "Okay, I will notify him now, and you will be responsible for contacting and connecting when the time comes."

Cheng Fei did not find it strange that Yang Ruoqian did not choose the first few well-known directors on the list.

If it were in the past, with Cheng Fei's confident personality, she would at most give two or three candidates that she thought were the most suitable, and would not have listed such a long list at all.

After cooperating with Kuiguang Group several times, and each time was a great success, she had deeply realized many of her own shortcomings, so she sent a list of all the directors who were interested in cooperating, and let Yang Ruoqian decide for himself.

How many big bosses and leaders overestimated their abilities and liked to "micro-manage", and eventually ruined the good situation?

The small ones gave away their own future, the big ones gave away the company, and the bigger ones directly became the captain of the transportation team.

So, it is better to leave things to people who can do things.

It saves both worry and effort.

Yang Ruoqian immediately sent a reply: "By the way, I wonder if Mr. Cheng is interested in being the deputy producer of this movie?"

Last time, Yang Ruoqian thought that there was no salary for being a nominal producer, so he directly rejected this lucrative job with a full income of hundreds of thousands but no work to do.

He was shivering with pain.

Now that Yang Ruoqian has formed his own crew, of course he has to double the money he didn't make last time.

And it's just right to arrange another job for Shao Yiqi in the crew, so that he can work with Cheng Fei, an old rival who doesn't like each other.

As a punishment for the big mouth and spreading rumors in the company.

On the one hand, he can create a job that does nothing and only collects wages in name. On the other hand, he can use this to punish Shao Yiqi, killing two birds with one stone.

"You didn't expect that? Not only can I send you to Chengyu Media, but I can also directly invite people from Chengyu Media over!"

Humph, want to escape?

Cheng Fei was obviously very surprised by this arrangement, and she replied extremely quickly: "Really? Mr. Yang is so polite?"

Despite being just a nominal associate producer, Cheng Fei did not participate in any film production at all this time.

I have provided a list of directors.

Just from the importance attached by Kuaiguang Group and Yang Ruoqian's own attitude, it can be seen that "Wandering Blue Star" is definitely a more important project than "Black Robe Inspection Team".

When filming "Black Robe Inspection Team", Yang Ruoqian just gave a rough outline and left almost all other matters to the crew, and it didn't matter what happened during the process.

He even declined the opportunity to become an associate producer.

Being invited by Yang Ruoqian to be the associate producer of such a highly regarded film can be said to be a kind of recognition!

It must also be recognized.

There's no way he just wants to pay Cheng Fei the almost symbolic salary of several hundred thousand, right?

Yang Ruoqian was a little surprised when he saw that the other party agreed so readily: "Mr. Cheng is interested? That's great... In terms of salary, I plan to pay 500,000 first, how about it?"

Cheng Fei didn't care about the salary at all: "Mr. Yang can just decide such a small thing by himself, I can do it."

It's a pleasure to chat with a cheerful person... Even if Cheng Yu's family has cheated him so many times, Yang Ruoqian still feels very comfortable working together: "Okay, that's it. I'll let you know when I turn on the phone. If you It’s okay not to come if you don’t have time.”

"I'm free, how could I not be free? By the way, one more thing, do you remember that we held a small event called "Black Robe Inspection Team" online before?"

The activities of "Black Robe Inspection Team"...

Yang Ruoqian thought for a moment and quickly found the relevant information in his memory.

Since both bosses had brief guest appearances in the movie, and the audience only found Yang Ruoqian, Yang Ruoqian had an idea at that time and forced himself to think of an excuse to hold an event.

Whoever is the first to find Cheng Fei's guest role will get a generous gift from Kuaiguang Group.

Of course, for the sake of fairness, people who know inside information, such as employees of Chengyu and Kuaiguang, cannot participate in this event.

Even if you participate, your secret will have to be revealed at the end when you receive the rewards with your real name.

"Remember, what happened? Has anyone found it yet?"

Cheng Fei replied: "Yes, our backend data has received the message. Should I send the prize directly?"

After all, it was a small offline event. Yang Ruoqian actually thought about giving away a supercar, but it was directly banned by the system.

The largest gift cannot be worth more than 100,000 yuan.

But under the influence of the system for many years, Yang Ruoqian has long mastered the ultimate secret of taking advantage of the loopholes - the system limits the value of the prizes, but the restrictions on the award ceremony are another matter.

As long as the awards ceremony is made grand, won't the expenses go up?

Giving big gifts is not enough, so why not hold a luxurious award ceremony in the name of giving big gifts?

Adhering to such advanced ideas, Yang Ruoqian stopped the behavior of minimizing losses by directly awarding awards: "President Cheng, think about it, there are quite a few people participating in this event. If we don't hold a public award ceremony, what will happen?" All information is transparently presented to the public. Some people may be dissatisfied with this result and feel that our two companies are directing and acting on their own. "

Cheng Fei immediately understood what Yang Ruoqian meant.

If you just find the audience who gives the correct answer first from the background information and send the prize to them quietly, you may not be able to convince the audience.

Not to mention the lottery activities organized by the two private companies, even the lottery, things like the "Magnetic Levitation Ball" that overturned the board of Newton's coffin often happened.

If the activity is not made more transparent, many people will definitely question its authenticity.

"Mr. Yang has really thought it through...Okay, then I'll follow your request. I'll let you know when the venue is ready."

Seeing that Cheng Fei was trying to unreasonably bring such a beautiful job into his group, Yang Ruoqian immediately stopped him and said: "Since I proposed this activity, the Kuaiguang Group should be responsible for all the expenses, otherwise it won't be possible." Is this an act of generosity to others?”

"You're too polite."

"This matter is settled!" After typing this line, Yang Ruoqian directly exited the chat box and sent relevant tasks to the operations department.

The scene of the award ceremony must be large enough and luxurious enough.

It would be better to pay some celebrities to come and host this award.

As for the protagonist of this award ceremony, what embarrassing things the unlucky winner will experience on the stage is not within the scope of Yang Ruoqian's consideration.

…

After handling everything, Yang Ruoqian, who had been busy all day, finally had some time to himself.

But he was deeply worried about this quarter's financial report and was not in the mood to watch movies or play games.

"Hey, let's see what the score of "Black Robe Inspection Team" is..."

Yang Ruoqian opened the browser and entered the two keywords "tempeh" in the Qiandu search box.

The link at the top of the search bar is not the official website of Douchi, but a very eye-catching message.

"Douchi score 9.1, the first domestic superhero movie female lead Shang Qianyu interview report."

Just with the word "douchi", it can be pushed directly to the top of the search bar.

You can imagine how popular this link is.

"This crappy movie has been released for a long time, please quickly reduce the popularity! Stop staring at me like a ghost!"

Yang Ruoqian has deliberately started to cool down the popularity of "Black Robe Inspection Team" and deliberately stopped any publicity.

However, the secondary creators of major video platforms seem to be still enthusiastic about this movie, and all kinds of ghosts, analyses, and jokes adapted from it are endless.

After a period of time, the popularity of "Black Robe Inspection Team" has not decreased. On the contrary, because of these secondary creation videos, it has attracted many outsiders who don't care about superhero movies.

Perhaps this is called the general trend is over, and the fate is over...

No matter what you do, you can't save the situation.

Yang Ruoqian sighed and casually clicked on the interview about Shang Qianyu.

…

"Shang Qianyu reveals inside information, two key pieces of information: true to himself, help from noble people"

Just from the title of this interview, we can see how famous Shang Qianyu has become because of this movie.

If it is an unknown 18th-tier actor, just writing his name without any prefix will only make people feel confused.

Only by not adding any prefix can a person's current fame be shown.

"The release of "The Boys" directly set off a blockbuster in the film and television industry. A superhero-themed movie with depth, fun and plot broke the stereotype of domestic audiences and became the most popular movie this year."

"Among them, Shang Qianyu, who was once a nobody, became famous overnight with her starring role. She played a role that was full of hope and tried hard to become a superhero, but after entering the company, she found that superheroes were so dirty."

"The plot of entering the company and being coerced by colleagues can be said to be one of the climaxes of the whole movie, which is extremely enjoyable!"

"Whether it is acting skills, emotional control or body language control, it can be said that it is far superior to actors of the same generation (fresh meat). Even compared with old actors, it is no exaggeration to say that they have 70% to 80% of their skills."

"The following is Shang Qianyu's original words:"
