Chapter 289 Publicity Team
"Da Shachun, what do you want to do!?"

"Hey, teacher, look at how nice my shoes are..."

"..."

"Hahahaha!"

At Huace Film Company, I don’t know which wave of laughter came from the preview room. Everyone was laughing so hard, “Where did they find these actors?”

"This Dashachun is really lifelike, and he doesn't seem to have a very high IQ at first glance."

"I can't stand it anymore. I laughed so much that I burst into tears. It was also funny in front of me. I was dragged away by a car. When I entered the door, I bumped into shirts with the emcee. Ma Dongmei was the most amazing. She smeared honey on her mouth and got five kills in one minute. The whole place was silent. He can be called a master of cold scenes."

"How can this movie be so funny?"

"Mom, I'm going out first. I'll burn some more paper for you during Qingming Festival." Lin Yu looked at the people in the classroom from the window, smiled stupidly, and then jumped off the third floor with a happy face.

In the room, everyone was dumbfounded.

Under the national flag, Ma Dongmei, who looked silly and sweet, was so surprised that the milk squeezed her face.

"Pfft hahaha, he jumped off the building and was hospitalized on the spot."

"This is the coolest thing I've ever seen jumping off a building, bar none."

"It's so funny. It's so funny. A man is standing in the middle of the road and imagining life. The picture is quite beautiful, but it's a pity that the traffic is blocked by him alone. Drivers are all around him scolding him."

"..."

After watching the two-hour movie, dozens of people walked out of the screening room of Huace Film Company. Some laughed, some wiped away tears, and everyone's expressions were different.

Zhao Shan was already waiting for them in the conference room. As soon as these people walked out of the screening room, they immediately walked into the conference room for a meeting.

Zhao Shan's evaluation of this movie is very high.

Lin Yu's "Encounter in the Graveyard" had already severely slapped them in the face. It was the movie with the best reputation last year by their entire Huace Film Company.

So when Lin Yu submitted the movie this time, Zhao Shan immediately dropped everything and called on everyone to watch the movie together.

Because Lin Yu had been making horror movies before, and this time he rashly transitioned into comedy movies, they were very worried about Lin Yu's performance.

Transformation is never easy.

It is absolutely normal for even some of Hong Kong's most top directors to encounter Waterloo during their transformation.

However, the look of these people walking out of the screening room was enough for them all to breathe a sigh of relief.

Just looking at it like this, it seems..., not bad?

Zhao Shan felt uneasy.

When everyone was seated, Zhao Shan glanced over and found that the directors or screenwriters who were watching all had rosy complexions or had tears in their eyes.

"Ahem." Zhao Shan coughed lightly, picked up the tea cup, and couldn't help but said, "Let's talk about it, how about it?"

Everyone looked at each other, and there was silence for a moment. No one spoke immediately.

After waiting for a while, Zhao Shan became impatient. What's wrong? Doesn't this great director or screenwriter have any ideas about this movie?

"Don't be stunned, let's talk about it." Zhao Shan immediately started directing, "What are your thoughts on this movie?"

"Ahem." The first person on the left stood up immediately, and Zhao Shan immediately paid attention to it. This person was Mr. Wang, the first screenwriter of Huace Film Company. He once wrote a masterpiece movie. Although In the past two years, his talents have been somewhat exhausted and his output has been mediocre, but Zhao Shan still approves of his vision.

"It's hard to evaluate." As soon as the old screenwriter stood up, he immediately wiped the corners of his eyes, coughed slightly, and said seriously, "A very, very surprising movie. If I were to give a score, then this movie That’s ten points.”

very? ? ?

Zhao Shan was shocked, and the hand holding the teacup immediately became a little unable to hold it. He coughed lightly and quickly calmed down, "What should I say?"

Mr. Wang said seriously, "This story can be easily seen in two ways. One is the switching between white moonlight and cinnabar moles. The favorite joke among young people is that white moonlight turns into white rice grains, and cinnabar moles turn into mosquito blood. "

"The movie uses an entire story to tell the story of a man who chased his dream Bai Yueguang, succeeded in pursuing it, and finally regretted it and chased his cinnabar mole again."

"Another way of saying it is that this is a story about being reborn in the 00s and traveling back in time to copy songs. This story angle alone is extremely novel."

"That's it, no more words." Mr. Wang sat down.

"Hmm." Zhao Shan nodded frequently, "Is there anyone else who wants to say something?"

"This movie is a mixture of joy and sorrow. It has the tone of a minor character in a Stephen Chow movie. For example, the wedding scene at the beginning of the story seems to be a comedy, but it is actually a tragedy."

"A kind of tragedy that epitomizes the life of the male protagonist. Bai Yueguang, whom he likes, marries an ugly and old man. He has been secretly in love for his whole life and pursues Charlotte, who he cannot love. It is difficult to express his sorrow, and it is difficult to express his sorrow. All that is left is bitterness, which turns into wine and enters the heart of sorrow.”

“He loved guitars but never accomplished anything.”

"He has the self-esteem of a small person. He wants to hold his head high, but his body is completely destroyed."

"Yuan Hua's 'They are all classmates, pretending to be stupid', although it is a joke, but Charlotte actually can't get off the stage at all. That kind of ridicule that is not serious or serious, and puts him in front of everyone, is supplemented by the sentence" Just a joke, just to rhyme', and it will make you mad."

"When Teacher Wang said, 'What is that idiot doing now?', Charlotte couldn't help but laugh."

"At the end of the movie, even though he had been prosperous and wealthy all his life, Charlotte still died alone in the hospital. No one came to visit him. Even his mother betrayed him. She was not by his side before she died. Instead, she was with his brother. Let’s get it together.”

"From nothing to another nothing, just like the reincarnation of the name Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Walking through half of the body, she is the only one, and the love is sincere."

"Hey." It started with a middle-aged female screenwriter. I don't know if she saw her sadness, so she said sadly.

"Okay, Teacher Hu, you sit down first." Zhao Shan was a little dizzy.

"Boss, there's nothing to say about this movie." The team leader of another department couldn't help but stood up, "The entire comedy movie, just speaking of it as a comedy movie, the smoothness of this baggage is perfect. , Daqiao but not workmanlike, the level of maturity is very, very, very high!”

"If "Encounter in the Graveyard" is good enough to make people in the industry miss it, then this movie is so good that people in the industry can see it at a glance!"

“If it doesn’t become popular, no one will!”

"Better than an encounter in a cemetery?" Zhao Shan couldn't help it and asked the most straightforward question.

"Better than an encounter in a cemetery!" Everyone gave a very affirmative reply. The person before suddenly stood up and said impassionedly, "To put it bluntly, 20 billion box office is a sure thing!"

"Ah?" Zhao Shan was shocked. Looking at the firm eyes of no one in the audience who doubted it, Zhao Shan rubbed his hands and felt so regretful that his intestines turned green.

Damn it, Huace and the others didn’t invest in this movie, it was still solely owned by Lin Yu.

You can’t get this vain profit!

Moreover, this will obviously be a huge achievement next year! "How about going to talk to him?" Zhao Shan couldn't help but look at Liu Hui on the side, "Isn't there still publicity and distribution? Our Huace pays half of the publicity and distribution cost. Well, we only have 20% of the profit. !”

This is really not too much, from 91 to 82.

Originally, Lin Yu had to pay them 10% of the net profit by leveraging their promotion and distribution channels and theater channels.

Looking at Zhao Shan, Liu Hui frowned. He didn't know why, but subconsciously retorted, "They are not short of money, so why do they need to borrow our money to announce their plans?"

"What we should consider is that if someone doesn't lend our name, we don't even have the qualifications to be named." As he spoke, Liu Hui became more and more courageous and reminded, "Mr. Zhao, don't forget Well, next year our company still needs a movie that can support scenes, and such a movie may not be available!"

“But this ‘Charlotte Troubles’ is right in front of us!”

"Um, so what do you mean?..."

"We can't miss this kind of cutting-edge talent. He's just borrowing our channels. Don't charge a penny. Let him come, but we Huace only need to put our name on it."

"When he wins the award next year, we at Huace will also be able to take advantage of it. Looking back from now on, this "Charlotte Troubles" can also be regarded as one of our Huace's movies."

While talking, Liu Hui said silently in his heart, after all, this is the last one they give us.

Just by poaching the entire mature publicity and development team in one fell swoop, they will soon become independent!
How many years can you, Huace, withstand this rising momentum? ?
Hey, where did I want to go?
Zhao Shan hesitated again and again and slapped the table, "Okay!"

"Go and talk to him. This time our Huace won't charge a penny in channel fees, so we can use his channels!"

"Immediately, this film will be submitted to the radio and television for review, and all procedures will be completed as soon as possible!"

It’s impossible to catch the New Year’s Eve.

There is a high probability that they will catch up with the May [-]st gear like last year. Then, after this wave of May [-]st gear comes down, Lin Yu's sky curtain contract will completely expire. From now on, the sky is high and birds can fly, and the sea is broad and fish can leap!

……

Back in the office, Liu Hui looked at his computer desk, his heart still pounding.

The high reputation of "Charlotte Troubles" made her feel a little confused.

Ghost Record 1 broke the highest record in the Internet University.

Ghost Story 2 won the first championship of the Internet University Chasing the Storm Project.

Encounter in a Cemetery has grossed over [-] billion at the box office, breaking the highest record in the history of supernatural films. There is no doubt that this is a small test, but it can still make a sequel.

This time The Troubles of Charlotte is another blockbuster movie! !

Is this young man so talented? ?
She really couldn't stand it anymore and even leaned against the office chair. Inexplicably, her whole clothes were soaked with sweat, and the collar of her clothes became a little transparent.

Triple salary. .A little-known young company. .

Taking advantage of the fact that others are not yet prosperous, I used to work as a senior executive. In the future, when I see myself in the industry, I have to call myself "sister" and praise myself for my absolutely correct vision in jumping from Huace back then!
Or did you just get carried away and switch jobs to a small company that was just starting to grow, only to find that company failed to recover within a few years and has since closed down? You have become a joke in the industry and your previous qualifications have been wiped out?
"Drip drip"

Before he could figure out this question, the computer started buzzing. Liu Hui quickly opened it and looked around. He was shocked and looked around quickly.

Fortunately, she has a high position and her office is very private and independent.

On the computer was information from a head hunter.

"You know Sister Jiang from Tudou Film and Television Company, right?"

"Jiang Shihan?"

"Yes, Company B of Tudou Film and Television is very stingy. The director of their film and television department couldn't stand the people in the publicity and development department, and they always had conflicts. Previously, Tudou Film and Television made a big boring movie, and the market response was mediocre. As a result, Jiang Shihan was stunned. The hype successfully brought the movie to life.”

"Although there is still a lot of criticism on the Internet, and although it is not profitable, the film has saved its capital and stopped bleeding. Based on this performance, the publicity and development department should receive a performance bonus of 300 million yuan for all departments."

"But when there was an internal meeting within the company, the film and television director objected, saying that the publicity department's announcement was a scam to deceive the audience, at the expense of hurting the company's reputation."

"Moreover, the movie doesn't make any money in the first place, and they have to give them a bonus of 300 million yuan. But the people who work hard in the film department don't have it. Who can convince the public?"

"Forget it, this guy also encouraged the CEO to change the performance payment rules. It must be calculated according to the total profit of the movie. That's great. 300 million becomes 30. If you divide it into a team, one person will not be enough to eat soup. No, it's a disaster. ”

Liu Hui, "..."

This potato company is simply sick. Isn't that what Xuanfa does? Why do you need Xuanfa to do it when you are doing well?There are no fans of the movie, no running water?

Adding icing on the cake is not the ability, but turning things around is the ability!
If someone saves you from a blockbuster movie, you should be rewarded with performance!

Obviously, the superficial dispute is part of it. In the Mainland, the company's positioning of publicity is the core issue. Some film companies believe that production is everything. If I produce well, I can still make a comeback.

Some companies believe that publicity and production are equally important.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Liu Hui.

"Jiang Shihan wants to change jobs? What are the conditions?"

"She consulted with us and her words were vague. It was roughly like this. The company's qualifications cannot be much worse than Tudou. All 20 people in her department will be taken away. The previous salary and benefits will remain unchanged."

"The publicity department will take 5% of the net profit from now on."

Liu Hui bit his nails. Others might not be difficult, but Jiang Shihan needed the company's qualifications to be close to those of Tudou. This one killed Lin Yu in an instant.

"If you want to make a move, you have to start early. Although many companies have publicity teams, Jiang Shihan's team is relatively well-known in the industry and has a good reputation. I heard that some companies have already offered a 30% premium to contact this team."

"Okay, let's talk back."

After hanging up the news about the headhunter here, Liu Hui just wanted to send the news to Lin Yu, but suddenly stopped.

Liu Hui, Liu Hui, what are you doing? .

You are in Huace, and you help Qingyun recruit the publicity and development team?

Huace pays you to do this during working hours?
"Snapped!"

Liu Hui slapped himself regretfully.

Liu Hui, Liu Hui.

How can you do such a thing, are you still a human being?
Where is your shame, where is your work ethic?
How can we be distracted when we are eating inside and outside?

"Didi di," Liu Hui immediately shook Lin Yu's window.
