I am a director, but I have the skills of an actor

Chapter 255 Sales
If Wang Changtian comes to find him alone, Wan Qingshan doesn't have to come to the capital. If anything happens, Wang Changtian comes to Shenzhen to find him.

But Wang Changtian was not the only one looking for him, Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Wang Zhongjun, Zeng Maojun, Cai Yinong,,,,
Except for companies that have a bad relationship with Wan Qingshan, the heads of all famous film and television companies are waiting for him. In this battle, Wan Qingshan will have to come.

In the hotel near China Film and Television, after everyone took a few bites absentmindedly, Han Sanping put down his chopsticks and looked at Wanqing Mountain.

"Qingshan, I won't beat around the bush with you.

You previously talked to Penguin about running movies like Hollywood. Can we do that? "

Wan Qingshan originally thought that after a few years, when Ali and others entered the movie peripheral, Penguin would follow suit.

But unexpectedly, when Wang Changtian was drinking and chatting with someone before, he was quick to talk and told the whole story.

Penguin doesn't care about movie peripherals, but the film and television industry does!

Especially China Film and Shanghai Film and Television are very concerned about it.

This is a direction that can further expand the development of the film and television industry. If it is done well, it will be a great achievement!

This interview between everyone and Wan Qingshan was organized by Han Sanping.

“If we can do it, almost all the people in charge in the film and television industry are here, so how could we not do it?

We all make movies. If we can’t make movie peripherals, then no one can.

Even if we just solve a little problem and work together, we can achieve a bigger market than what Mr. Ma and I mentioned. "

"Which point?" Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Academy asked eagerly.

"As long as we can solve the problem of piracy, not just to be like Hollywood, but just to be a little more disciplined so that piracy can't be so blatant, then we can do better."

Piracy!

This question made everyone frown. This question sounds simple to say, but it is unrealistic to do it!
Piracy is related to the livelihood of millions, or even tens of millions of people, so how can it be banned!

Han Sanping thought for a while and said, "If we solve this problem, how big can it be done?"

"Scale, haha, Director Han, as long as time goes by and everyone becomes more aware of copyright, the movie peripheral market will be no smaller than the movie box office market.

Just look at Hollywood. For many commercial blockbusters, the movie peripherals are higher than the box office. "

Han Sanping frowned and whispered, "If we don't solve it, how big can it be?"

"Then you can only make quick money, not much."

A trace of disappointment flashed in everyone's eyes, and at this time, Wanqingshan's voice continued to sound.

"Of course, if we can bring artists in, even if we don't solve the piracy problem, the scale can be bigger, at least not smaller than the current celebrity endorsement market."

No smaller than the celebrity endorsement market!The crowd became excited again, just like changing faces in a Sichuan opera.

"Director Wan, can you tell me in detail how to bring artists in?" Wang Zhongjun asked eagerly.

“The operation is very simple, let the artists go on stage to promote their character peripherals.

I talked to Mr. Ma from Penguin before about using the cloud ticket purchasing platform to promote movie peripherals.

But this kind of publicity is definitely not as good as the artist's off-stage promotion. After all, movie peripherals, unless the movie is particularly good-looking, will be bought by the artist's fans, and ordinary audiences will definitely not buy it.

Let artists go off stage to sell their character peripherals, promote them through various channels, and let their fans buy them. This is better than cloud ticket recommendations.

Another point is that fans of artists will not buy pirated copies. They will definitely buy genuine copies to support their idols.

Let the artists go out to promote, and we will give the artists a share according to a certain proportion. If we do it well, they can make a lot of money.

To make money, they will definitely promote it hard, and we will make more money. "

Wang Zhongjun was stunned for a moment and exclaimed, "Isn't this the way the financial industry cuts leeks? Let any big V recommend something, and then everyone will share the money!"

Wan Qingshan frowned and said with a smile, "Mr. Wang, although your metaphor is not very good, it is almost the same.

However, Mr. Wang, tell me which industry does not cut leeks? "

Before Wang Zhongjun could say anything, Wan Qingshan picked up his chopsticks and tapped the plate of vegetables in front of him.

"Just talk about the plate of vegetables in front of me. Ask someone at the hotel why this plate of vegetables can cost us hundreds of yuan.

They will definitely talk about how many years they have been a chef, where they studied for how many years, and what awards they have won.

Then, where are the raw materials for these dishes shipped from? The normal price is a few hundred yuan!
But if we really check, this plate of vegetables was definitely not fried by the head chef, but by the second and third chefs. Their qualifications are definitely not as exaggerated as the head chef.

There are also raw materials, I'm afraid they are all bought from the nearby farmer's market, and they are no different from the raw materials for meals in small restaurants.

But why can we sell hundreds of dollars in this hotel? It’s not because the hotel is well decorated, and we people don’t care about the money.

Speaking of which, this hotel is treating us like leeks! "

Everyone's expressions froze. It sounded uncomfortable to be cut like a leek.

"Qingshan, eating is eating, there is no comparison.

Nowadays, the age of star chasing is getting younger. Many artists’ fans are still young and still use their family’s money. What they will do to support the artists needs to be taken into consideration. "Han Sanping said in a deep voice.

"Dr. Han, this problem also exists in Hollywood, but why can they still do it? Because they only care about making money.

To put it bluntly, everyone here is in the movie business. Who dares to pat his chest and say that every movie he invested in before is worth dozens of yuan a movie ticket.

Everyone can be ruthless in making money in movies, but now when it comes to movie peripherals, can’t they be ruthless?
If you are really cruel, just lower the prices of movie peripherals so that everyone can earn less. "

Wang Zhongjun and the others would not agree to making less money.

"Director Han, you are worrying too much. There are a lot of movie peripherals. If you don't have that condition, you can buy cheap stuff."

"Yes, Director Han, we can also make movie peripherals, clothes, pillows, cups, etc. I don't know how high the price will be, but I will set a normal price. What's the impact of something worth a dozen or 20 yuan?"

"This is not an Apple IV. It needs a kidney to replace it. The most expensive model can only be sold for less than a few bucks."

,,,,
,,,,
,,,,
The words of everyone made Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun a little embarrassed.

In fact, they don't care whether it is expensive or not, but their location makes them worry about the consequences afterwards. If something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome.

Han Sanping thought for a moment and said, "Okay, this won't be done in a short time. I will think about it carefully."

Han Sanping's words made everyone shut up, and then they all thought, this kind of thing doesn't need your help from China Film, you can do it yourself, Han Sanping, think about it first, let's make money first.

Han Sanping is also a good person. He just thought that Wang Zhongjun and the others would not care so much in order to make money.

What he said just now was to put himself out first.

Let them try it out. If there is no impact, China Film Group will do it again.

If there is an impact, it's none of China Film's business. He said he should think about it carefully, but Wang Zhongjun and the others didn't listen and did it themselves, so he can't be blamed.

Anyway, when it was done, he still had credit for China Film Group. He made an appointment with Wan Qingshan and asked Wan Qingshan to explain the operation, but he organized it.

Both left and right, China Film and Television did not suffer!
After everything was said and done with the meal, everyone was in a hurry to leave and go back to prepare movie peripherals.

Wan Qingshan was also ready to leave, but when he walked to the door of the hotel, he was asked by Han Sanping to have tea.

In a nearby teahouse, Han Sanping personally poured tea for Wanqingshan on the table by the window.

Then, Han Sanping suddenly said, "Qingshan, what happened to Wang Ling, was it you?"

"I did it!"

Before Wang Ling's incident happened, he asked Han Sanping about Wang Ling's background. Wan Qingshan would not treat Han Sanping as a fool, so he admitted it on the spot.

Han Sanping didn't say anything. He put down the teapot and took a sip of tea. After putting down the teacup, he suddenly said, "You did the reporting incident?"

Wan Qingshan, who just took a sip of tea, his pupils shrank slightly, then he put down the teacup and said with a smile,
"Director Han, why are you here again? I have said before that I have many ways to help Yin Xiaotian turn around. Why bother to report the matter and involve my own reputation?"

"Of course you are not doing it for Yin Xiaotian, you are doing it for Zhao Feit. First you reported it, and then you found someone to report negative news about Zhao Fei Te, hoping that Zhao Fei Te would be regarded as a role model.

But you didn't expect Wang Ling to help her, so you brought Wang Ling down.

As for reputation, haha, Qingshan, people in the industry now say that your Qingshan department is a breath of fresh air, and you actually paid all the taxes before!

You have paid all the taxes, and if you do whatever you want, your reputation will be restored, or even better. "

The smile on Wan Qingshan's face quickly disappeared, "Director Han, since you have seen through it, I have nothing to say."

Han Sanping withdrew his gaze, picked up the tea cup and took another sip, and then said,

"Qingshan, don't treat others as fools. I'm not the only one who has seen through this.

Wang Zhongjun and others also suspect that you did it, but because you are so powerful now, they can't do anything.

But if they get the chance, they will definitely take revenge, because you have each lost hundreds of millions.

Especially since you have to pay money every year in the future, it adds up to an astronomical figure. Do you think they will hate you? "

"Hate as much as you like, what can they do to me? Not to cooperate with me? Or to exclude me? Not to let me work in the film and television industry?

Although my company's strength has declined a lot compared to a few years ago, it's not something they can control. "

Han Sanping's expression froze and he said in a deep voice, "Qingshan, it's not good to offend people too much. Especially in the film and television industry, it's difficult to live alone for a long time."

"Director Han, thank you for your concern. I know it well."

Wan Qingshan didn't take Han Sanping's words seriously. He had seen through it after so many years in the industry.

In the past, Han Sanping said that it would be difficult to live alone in the film and television industry for a long time. At that time, he truly believed it and regarded it as the truth.

But during his career in Hollywood over the past few years, he discovered that this truth was nonsense.

After all, there are only two words - interests!
As long as you can bring benefits to them, even if those people want to stab you with a knife in their hearts, they will still smile and please you on the surface, let alone such a trivial matter as eating alone.

If it can't bring them benefits, no matter how good the relationship is, they won't think about you if they have money-making matters.

This benefit is not just investment, but also support!Wang Zhongjun, Wu Kebo and others were not allowed to invest in "Ati" before, but when news of the interview was spread, they didn't even call and recommend actors.

As long as he throws out a little benefit from time to time to keep Wang Zhongjun and the others in check, they will always treat him with a smile, and there is no need to care about what Wang Zhongjun and the others think.

As for Wang Zhongjun and the others, their losses were too great, and the profits he threw away could not make up for it!

Wang Zhongjun and the others are not fools. They have already lost money. Even if they exclude him from the entertainment industry, it will be useless. Moreover, they cannot exclude him from the entertainment industry, so it is more practical to seize the little profit he gets and throw him out.

Han Sanping saw Wan Qingshan's indifferent expression.

He wanted to say a few more words, but he thought that Wanqingshan was not developing in the country at all.

Qingshan Media Company has been cooperating with Penguin Company on projects since the beginning of the year and rarely cooperates with other companies.

This,,,, Wan Qingshan can completely do without Bird King Zhongjun and the others. The words on his lips cannot be said out.

He could only say something like he was following the procedure.

"Qingshan, you'd better pay more attention to yourself."

After saying that, Han Sanping changed the topic and asked, "Qingshan, "Huo Qubing" has been released for several years. What do you think of the second part?"

Wan Qingshan's brows twitched, "Director Han, how can I have time to shoot "Huo Qubing" now? Costume blockbusters are too time-consuming. The first one took me nearly a year.

Next, there is a literary film waiting for me, and then "Ati" will be released. I really don't have time in the near future. "

Han Sanping also frowned. It had been several years since the first part of "Huo Qubing" was released, and he had been thinking about the second part.

He mentioned it several times before. At that time, Wan Qingshan said that the series would not be filmed immediately and would be filmed later. He really believed Wan Qingshan's words.

But now it seems that Wan Qingshan has not included the second part of "Huo Qubing" in his work plan at all.

"Qingshan, you have to think about yourself. In a few years, your age will not be suitable for the second part of "Huo Qubing"."

After saying that, Han Sanping's eyes widened. He remembered the previous news reports about "Ati".

'Wan Qingshan's career as an actor came to an end, and he actually acted as a voice actor for Liu Yifei! '

Actor's career ends!

"You don't plan to film the second part of "Huo Qubing"!" Han Sanping exclaimed!
The second part of "Huo Qubing"!

Wan Qingshan wanted to film it before, even the third part!

But after "Fire" was successful, he didn't want to make the "Huo Qubing" series anymore!

It was so painful to film "Huo Qubing", eating wind in the prairie, eating sand in the Gobi desert, and there was a torturous circus!

Making money from the "Huo Qubing" series is not as good as making the "Fire" series.

Make more money easily, normal people know how to choose!

"Director Han, for the "Huo Qubing" series, I will look at the situation and I will shoot it when the time is right.

As for the age problem, makeup artists can solve it. "

Wan Qingshan still wants to delay it first. In two years, Han Sanping will retire, so there will be no rush for him.

Han Sanping didn't believe this. He had figured it out just now.

Now, Wan Qingshan is making much more money by shooting a commercial blockbuster in Hollywood than in the "Huo Qubing" series, so why would he want to shoot the second part of "Huo Qubing".

"Okay, you can see for yourself!" Han Sanping said with disappointment.

Han Sanping had no choice but to put a knife to his neck and force Wan Qingshan to shoot.

Afterwards, Wan Qingshan and Han Sanping chatted for a few words and separated.

After the matter was done, Wan Qingshan did not leave the capital immediately. He took a car to the Siheyuan Hutong.

This time, he didn't go home and went straight to Yu Bo's house.

Yu Bo was tidying up the small bamboo shed in the corner of the yard, and there was a young woman helping him beside him.

"Brother Bo, this is my sister-in-law!"

Wan Qingshan strode over and shouted with a smile.

Yu Bo stood up and turned around to introduce to Wanqingshan.

"Qingzi, you're here, my girlfriend Wang Jing!"

"Hello!" Wang Jing smiled gently.

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

Wang Jing was a bit introverted, so she stayed for a while and then went out to buy groceries.

"Brother Bo, when are you going to get married?" Wan Qingshan put down the watermelon rind and asked with a smile.

There was a hint of sweet joy in Yu Bo's eyes, "It's still early, let's wait a few more years."

Wan Qingshan smiled and asked about business, "Brother Bo, now that Zhou Yi has done this, what are you going to do?"

Wan Qingshan originally thought that after Zhou Yi relied on Jiang Zhiqiang and entered the film industry, he would not follow the old path of bankruptcy in his previous life, but he did not expect that it went bankrupt some time ago.

The reason is similar to the original life. Jiang Xuerou's husband divorced and the family property was divided, which led to the division and collapse of Zhou Yi!

Yu Bo sighed dejectedly, "During this period, several companies have contacted me, but I haven't decided where to go yet."

"Brother Bo, if you ask me, you can open a studio and put it under my company's name.

You also know that our Qingshan Media Company has no artists, so our resources are either given to Fanfan Company or found by others.

I give it to everyone, so I might as well give it to you. This doesn’t count as you taking advantage of me! "

Yu Bo shook his head slightly, "Forget it, Qingzi, I know that Qingshan Media Company's project is also an exchange investment project for others."

Seeing that Wan Qingshan wanted to speak, Yu Bo was the first to continue,

"Qingzi, it's better not to involve interests between us.

To be honest, you made me popular before, and I was very grateful at that time.But as I become more grateful, I feel that the relationship between us has changed a bit.

Fortunately, later on, there was no interest relationship between us, so that smell disappeared.

Qingzi, it’s rare that we are still true friends from college to now. Don’t let our friendship become sour. "

Wan Qingshan was stunned for a moment and nodded helplessly.

"Okay, then I'll ask you to act in a show later, it doesn't matter.

You also know that my movies are never exchanged for resources. It’s the same for anyone. You shouldn’t refuse.

It would be pointless to refuse. "

"Haha, of course I won't refuse your movie. As long as it's not inappropriate for me, just give it to me."

"That's impossible. I invest at least hundreds of millions in a movie. I don't dare to make fun of investing hundreds of millions."

Yu Bo smiled and sighed, "Speaking of which, ten years after graduation, our class of 99 didn't have many class reunions.

It didn't happen before, but now that Ling Xiaosu and Yao Chen are in such trouble, they probably won't do it even more.

Looking at other grades, they all do it every few years. "

“It’s bullshit to hold class reunions. They hold class reunions just for publicity.

And your 99-level acting department, there are too many top-notch ones, and many of them are already duplicitous during their studies.

The relationship between you people and the publicity of the class reunion will definitely not be successful.

It's better if we get together and don't fight. "

"Haha, I just have a few words of emotion."

,,,,,

After dinner, Wan Qingshan settled the matter at Yu Bo's house. The next day, he went to Qingshan Publishing Company to have a look.

Last year, he asked Zhang Zhao to make the publishing company independent. He said at that time that he would come and take a look.

But later on, Ma Huateng didn't engage in movie peripherals. He couldn't completely separate the distribution company for a while, so he didn't bother to watch it.

After checking it out without incident this time, Wan Qingshan found that Zhang Zhao's mark was too deep, deeper than his.

His imprint in Qingshan Media is more attached to it by outsiders.

When outsiders mention Qingshan Media, they will think of his company. If outsiders say it too often, people inside the company will naturally think that it belongs to him.

Therefore, over the years, few people have had meetings with Zhang Zhao, but always with him.

And Zhang Zhao’s imprint is internal. Qingshan Media has been managed by Zhang Zhao from its inception to the present, and all the staff have accepted their fate.

Within the company, it can be said that every brick and tile has Zhang Zhao’s imprint!

Now Qingshan Publishing Company is developing independently, but Zhang Zhao is still in control.

Wan Qingshan just walked around and asked Yu Ke, the general manager of Qingshan Publishing Company, and found that Yu Ke always said that Mr. Zhang’s orders and Mr. Zhang’s opinions...
After Wan Qingshan walked out of the company, he got in the car and thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure out a solution.

Now unless he personally runs Qingshan Publishing Company, there is really no way to smoothly erase Zhang Zhao's imprint from Qingshan Publishing Company!

Without a solution, Wan Qingshan could only ignore it for the time being.

After leaving Qingshan Publishing Company, I flew back to Shenzhen and prepared to continue creating people.
