Chapter 154 The Share Has Been Received, and We Are Going to Set up a Company!
The reporters held up the microphones and asked one after another:
"Director Chen, congratulations on your "Farewell My Concubine" winning this year's Palme d'Or and Best Actor, and "Interstellar" winning Best Director and Jury Prize. Do you have anything to say?"
"Why did you come back so soon? Is there something wrong with the crew?"
"What award will "Interstellar" be nominated for next?"
"The Palme d'Or was won by "Farewell My Concubine" instead of "Interstellar". Does this mean that the quality of "Interstellar" is not as good as "Farewell My Concubine"? "
...
Hearing the last question, Chen Xiao smiled and glanced at the reporter who asked the question.
"The Cannes Film Festival is the most commercial among the three major film festivals, but only relatively speaking. It also values artistry. From an artistic perspective, Farewell My Concubine is indeed more suitable. I don't think it's necessary to compare these two films. From different perspectives, there will be different choices. If you look at it from the perspective of special effects, you will definitely choose Interstellar, right? Which one is yours? Don't dig a hole for me, okay?"
Chen Xiao said the last sentence in a joking tone and with a smile, but it was also equivalent to a small warning.
Ask questions carefully and don't dig holes for him. Be careful and remember you.
After chatting with the reporter for a while, Chen Xiao got on the car sent by the crew and went straight to the crew.
The training in the capital was basically over, and he was too lazy to run back and forth, so he went straight to Shanghai after returning from Cannes.
During his journey, from taking off from Cannes to taking a car to the hotel in Shanghai, a wave of discussion about the Cannes Film Festival was set off on the Internet.
"I'm tired of winning awards."
"The three major awards can be renamed. The day of the awards ceremony is the day when Daodao visits the local area once a year."
"You haven't been to the Berlin Film Festival yet? Berlin is in December and attaches great importance to politics. "Farewell My Concubine" also meets the requirements. Damn, it won't be a grand slam, right?"
"Hiss - goose bumps."
"I'm really afraid that Chen Daodao will retire now. Can he take a rest? Don't be too tired. I saw that he didn't look very good during the interview today."
"Oh, that's because he doesn't seem to like being interviewed. He was blocked by reporters when he got off the plane. He was unhappy."
"Daodao, please take a rest. It's good to have an outbreak, but persistence is the most important. Please fight for a hundred years and don't retire!"
"When will StarCraft be re-screened? I want to experience the giant waves again!"
...
Just when the online discussion about this award was heated, Chen Xiao came to the crew's residence.
Because they will stay in Shanghai for nearly two months this time, the crew simply rented a few townhouses to keep everyone in a good mental state.
There are many people in the crew, but many of them are locals in Shanghai and do not need to live in the crew. For example, the art team, except Wang Rui and his assistant, all others are found in Shanghai.
So the number of rooms needed is not as many as when going to Inner Mongolia and Sichuan.
And the actors will not live here for a long time. They will come here when it is their turn to shoot.
10 villas, nearly 100 rooms, rented for nearly two months, the price is close to 1 million. Each room is less than 200 per day on average, which is not expensive.
After Chen Xiao got off the car, he chatted with the art team members for a while and came to his room.
This room is more than 40 square meters, just for sleeping, it is definitely enough.
As soon as I packed my luggage, my mobile phone made a ding sound.
Chen Xiao picked up the phone and saw that the first month's box office of "Interstellar" was credited!
"Interstellar" has been released worldwide for a month.
The domestic box office is 12.4 billion, the overseas box office is 11.7 billion, and the total box office is 24.1 billion.
This data sounds terrible, but compared with the original world, it is not particularly exaggerated.
Like in the original world, the domestic box office of "The Wandering Earth 2", also a science fiction film, was 4 billion.
In this world, "Interstellar" has a quality that crushes other films, coupled with its reputation and high ticket prices, and it is normal to reach 3 times the box office.
As for the foreign box office, "Interstellar" had a global box office of about 5 billion in the previous world, which is just doubled.
Compare it with the box office No. 1 in the original world, "Avatar", which reached nearly 20 billion in 2009. Considering inflation, it is reasonable.
The total box office is 24.1 billion, and after deducting the share of theaters, distributors, taxes, other investors, etc., it is about the same as his previous estimate, and he got 20%.
4.82 billion.
This number sounds great. Looking at the world, wow, he is only 1665.1 billion away from the world's richest man!
But don't be discouraged, making money is a process of money making money.
Next, mass production and investment, one day, he can at least become the richest man in the film and television industry!
Then we have to think about how to set up a company.
Chen Xiao took out his laptop from his suitcase and sat down at his desk.
Wait, let's change a skill first.
Learning management knowledge now is too time-consuming, let's learn some basic knowledge.
Chen Xiao opened the system after a long time.
In the corner of the screen, it was written: [Emotional value balance: 287.31 million]
He quickly searched in the mall and soon found several skills.
Law minor, business administration minor, accounting minor, finance and financial minor, etc.
Chen Xiao touched his chin and frowned.
Change all?
Then his head would be filled with numbers.
No, it would be very troublesome to instill too much science knowledge at one time, especially these knowledge that he was not interested in.
Change less.
After hesitating for a while, Chen Xiao exchanged for Law, Business Management, and Accounting.
Soon, all kinds of knowledge entered his mind.
Management Basics, Criminal Law, Financial Formulas... and a large number of examples.
There are even some strange examples. For example, if you are starving to death, you can eat a panda, which is considered emergency risk avoidance.
Chen Xiao rubbed his head.
What kind of example is this?
Can you beat a panda if you are starving to death?
After another ten minutes of digestion, he ate an apple, and his brain digested the knowledge instilled by the system.
Chen Xiao threw the apple core into the trash can, turned on the computer and began to think about the steps of building a company.
To set up a company, you need to name the company, prepare articles of association, register the company, rent an office, etc.
Naming, I hate naming the most.
Start with your own name.
Chen Xiao, the audience thinks it is too sharp, so remove the ear knife next to the word "Chen" and leave "Dong".
Dong Xiao? This doesn't look like the name of a film and television company.
Dong Dong Dong... Dongfang!
Dongfang, it sounds quite pleasant. And now in the film and television industry, the West is the mainstream, and this name also reflects our ambitions!
Haha, okay, this is just making excuses, to put it bluntly, I don’t like naming.
But "Dongfang Media" sounds okay.
After solving the name, think about registration.
Registering a company is the most complicated, but it is not difficult to do.
Li Zhiming helped him contact an industrial and commercial registration agency team, which will help him verify the company name, assist in preparing materials, submit registration applications, etc.
This process takes about a month. During this time, he only needs to sign a contract with the service team, prepare materials, and follow up on the progress.
Follow up on the progress, it would be great if there is a trustworthy person to help him follow up.
Chen Xiao touched his chin.
Trustworthy, good at math, clear mind...
A glowing figure appeared in Chen Xiao's mind.
This person is not only suitable for follow-up, but may even help him look after the company in the future.
