Chapter 31 The Famous Director Was Shocked: There Must Be a Master Behind This Film!
At the same time, Jiahe Diamond Company, Chairman’s Office.
"Chen Xiao wants to resign?"
The chairman frowned and looked at Zhang Jianhua, "Where is he going? Jiahao?"
Zhang Jianhua shook his head, "I heard from Mr. Wang from Jiahao that the Ministry of Culture took a fancy to him when they were reviewing the film and asked him to shoot a promotional video."
A trace of shock flashed across the chairman's eyes.
Ministry of Culture?
He had long thought that with Chen Xiao's talent, he would definitely leave Jiahe Diamond and become a director.
But I didn't expect that this kid would step into the Ministry of Culture before he walked out of Jiahe? !
Maybe he will be the one from above in the future?
Thinking of this, the chairman's eyebrows moved slightly.
With such a talent, it would be a huge loss to just cut off the relationship.
"Lao Zhang, what is the compensation given to him in the advertising shooting contract?"
"1% net advertising revenue."
The chairman thought for a moment and decided: "Change it to 2%, and give him the company shares for the additional 1%."
Zhang Jianhua was shocked.
Directly award company shares?
This is the first of its kind in Jiahe!
It seems that the chairman wants to use the shares to establish a relationship between Jiahe and Chen Xiao.
Well, consider it a win-win.
Xiao Chen will also have a backer in the future.
Of course, if he doesn't want to keep this relationship, he can just sell his shares.
This nephew is so impressive!
Zhang Jianhua smiled and said: "Okay, I'll do it in the next two days!"
…
In a cinema near Jiahe Diamond Company.
"Burning Winter" is being screened in a VIP hall.
on the screen.
Two men and one woman cuddled together, passing ice cubes between their mouths.
Under the stage, a middle-aged man wearing a mask stared blankly at the screen.
what is this?
His cerebellum was atrophied.
Are young people good at this nowadays?
"Xiao Qin, do you understand?" he asked the young man next to him in a low voice.
"I can't understand it. Maybe we watched "The Four" for half an hour before coming over, so we can't understand it?"
The man shrugged, "Forget it, just see this."
He picked up his coat and walked out of the screening room.
If there are sharp-eyed reporters nearby, they may be able to identify this person as the famous director Hong Kaihua based on the eyes on the mask.
He just won an award at the Cannes Film Festival last year and is considered one of the top ten directors in the Chinese film circle.
The great director closed the door and yawned.
He is currently preparing to shoot a romance film.
It was the National Day. In order to relax and learn about the market, he and his assistant came to the cinema to watch the newly released romance movies.
First, I watched "The Expedition" for a while, and then went to another screening room to watch "The Burning Winter" for half an hour.
More than an hour passed, and I felt pretty good.
I just don’t quite understand what the meaning of “Burning Winter” is.
The assistant closed the door and laughed softly: "Director Hong, I feel that these two films are not as good as our film."
Hong Kaihua chuckled, "After all, we are on a Spring Festival show, so of course the quality should be higher. "The Last of Us" is okay. It is estimated that the attendance rate will be more than 20%. It should be the National Day box office champion."
20% doesn't seem like much.
However, the average national movie attendance rate throughout the year was only about 8%. 20% is relatively high.
The two chatted and walked towards the exit.
As soon as they walked into the cinema hall, the scene in front of them made the two of them freeze on the spot.
A large group of people crowded at the ticket collection gate, constantly urging the people in front, "Hurry up, the tickets will be checked soon."
There was also a group of people crowded at the ticket gate excitedly as if they were meeting their idols.
A man and woman walked past them. The girl held the boy's arm and said with a smile, "I heard this is the best romance movie this year!"
Hong Kaihua was a little confused.
Best romance movie?
He had just watched two romance movies with good reviews.
"Ex 4" is okay, but it's not the best this year, right?
Is he out of touch with the market?
He murmured: "Is "Ex 4" so popular?"
Two little girls holding ice cream in their hands laughed and said, "Uncle, everyone is here to watch "Titanic"."
Hong Kaihua was stunned.
Isn't that "Titanic" an advertisement?
In the evening, I heard from my assistant that everyone on the Internet was shouting about this movie. Less than three hours have passed, how come it has become the best romance movie people say this year?
After a moment, he suddenly realized it and looked at the two girls next to him: "Two of you, are you fans of Leo?"
One girl shook her head, "No, it's said to be very good-looking, so let's give it a try."
The assistant had already taken out his mobile phone to check the ticket purchase status of the cinema.
He patted Hong Kaihua on the shoulder and whispered:
"Director Hong, "Titanic" seems to be a real hit! The theater we are in is full for the nine o'clock show and the ten o'clock show. Even the IMAX theater from 0 to 3:30 is full! Tomorrow afternoon It’s also full.”
Hong Kaihua's eyes were full of shock.
A ticket in the IMAX hall costs more than 200, and the show only ended at three in the morning. Is it already full?
Is it really good-looking, or are the fans too crazy?
If it is true, then the National Day box office champion will definitely change hands.
In fact, this "advertisement" that has been scolded for two months may create a box office miracle!
He frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said to his assistant: "Did you buy the premiere?"
The assistant nodded, "I bought it. You asked me to buy all the romance movies. But more than half of the premiere screenings have already been played."
"It doesn't matter, let's go and see now."
The two of them pushed open the VIP room where "Titanic" was playing.
Completely different from the lively atmosphere outside, there were only two people sitting in the middle of the more than 20 seats for the premiere.
Hong Kaihua and his assistant took their seats and looked at the screen.
In the picture.
The ladies in the first class cabin boarded the lifeboat one after another.
A couple hugged each other and said goodbye in tears.
"Should we take the lifeboat according to the class?" A lady said to the character played by Wins, "I hope it won't be too crowded."
Wins stared at the lady in disbelief and grabbed her shoulders, "Mom, stop talking! Don't you understand? It's so cold and there are not enough lifeboats. Only half of the people can get on. The rest can only leave it to fate!"
The man next to them sneered, "The upper class won't be left."
...
Hong Kaihua covered his mouth and whispered, "It's okay. The class antagonism is described more deliberately, and there is a suspicion of deliberately showing off feelings, but at least it's not empty."
As soon as the voice fell, a voice came from the left, "Two uncles."
Hong Kaihua turned his head and saw the little girl sitting next to him said angrily, "Two uncles, don't talk nonsense if you haven't seen the previous part. This is a branch line. The director didn't show off feelings at all!"
"Sorry, sorry." Hong Kaihua apologized awkwardly and continued to look at the screen.
In the picture, the plot continued to advance.
Ruth gave up the opportunity to get on the lifeboat and tried her best to save Jack.
At the same time, some first-class passengers tried their best to get on the lifeboat.
Some third-class women and children were locked under the iron door.
Before being blocked by the seawater, they were blocked by their compatriots.
The deck was getting more and more chaotic.
The second mate firmly implemented the priority of women and children, holding an empty gun and pointing it at his compatriots.
The first mate accepted Carl's bribe.
Hong Kaihua's eyes were shocked and he looked at the screen in disbelief.
The portrayal of the little people in just a few strokes is amazing!
Who is the director?
How can he have such a strong ability to conceive and mobilize, and portray the little people so meticulously.
Hearing that the quality of the film was very poor, he didn't pay attention to who the director was.
But now it seems that the director behind it is definitely worth paying attention to!
Could it be that the 80-year-old Mr. He has returned to the arena?
Hong Kaihua took a deep breath and watched the film seriously.
Based on these ten minutes of footage alone, he can already foresee that as long as there are no problems with the love story between the hero and heroine, this movie will definitely be the box office champion during the National Day holiday!
