Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 6 is scheduled for summer release

Seven or eight days after the script of "Stone" was submitted, the person in charge of publicity and promotion at China Film Group called him and asked him to visit the film company.

Seeing Li Chen enter the private room, the person in charge of the liaison between China Film Group and Li Chen stood up and said with a smile.

"Director Li is here. Let me introduce you to Mr. Han from China Film Group."

Mr. Han? That is the second-in-command of China Film Group, the deputy chairman and deputy general manager, Han Sanping, also known as the Third Master.

Han Sanping was wearing an ordinary white shirt, but his aura was not ordinary at all.

It is obviously the natural aura of a superior that comes from giving orders for a long time.

Han Sanping stretched out his right hand, and Li Chen took two steps forward and held him with both hands.

"Haha, Director Li is indeed young and promising."

"I don't deserve it. You are my senior. Just call me Li Chen."

"After all, you and I are from the same sect."

"Boss Han is right, but our generation certainly can't compare to you. We are just catching up with a good era now."

"Haha, sit down and talk."

"it is good"

After Han Sanping sat down, Li Chen and the people from China Film Academy sat on both sides of him.

During the meal, Han Sanping said with a smile: "I was at a meeting at the bureau two days ago, and I saw you handing in another notebook."

"Yes, Mr. Han. It's a low-budget movie."

"The book is good, and it will probably be available in a week. Do you want to invest?"

"Well, to be honest with you, Mr. Han, if this movie is like Director Chen's The Promise, I would have to ask for your help even if you don't ask."

Chen Kaige’s The Promise was announced to be exclusively produced by China Film Group Corporation, with a budget of 300 million yuan and will be released worldwide.

It just sounds scary enough.

The casting for The Promise has been completed and filming will begin after this year.

But when he thought of the bloody murder caused by a steamed bun, Li Chen sighed silently for Mr. Han Sanye in front of him.

"Haha, forget it. Next time you need something, you can come to China Film. Whether it's funding or people, China Film can help you solve it."

Li Chen's guess was correct. When the big boss heard the three million, he immediately lost interest.

"I'd like to offer a toast to Mr. Han. Thank you in advance. I will definitely ask for your help if you need anything."

"Well, what do you think of our film industry?" Han Sanping changed the subject.

Li Chen thought for a moment and said, “I think starting with Director Zhang’s Heroes, the film industry will enter a period of rapid development.”

"Commercial films in particular will soon become mainstream, which is an inevitable trend after the country joins the WTO."

"It will definitely bring more benefits than disadvantages to the film industry, and more investors will enter the film and television industry."

"At the same time, more talents will enter the ranks of film and television practitioners."

"However, as the quantity increases, it may be difficult for the quality to keep up."

Han Sanping listened carefully and nodded at the end, saying, "Yes, young people have ideas. The future of the film industry will depend on you, the post-80s generation."

After the dinner, both parties exchanged phone numbers.

Lost on Journey is scheduled to be released on August 15th.

Mr. Han really takes good care of him. The Matrix 2 will be released in mid-July.

There will be another Charlie's Angels 2 on August th.

He can't afford to offend him, and he doesn't want to die before he achieves his goal.

Li Chen was very satisfied. He thought that Mr. Han might be more curious about him than wanting to invest when he saw him today.

After all, my investment is not even a small thing in the eyes of others.

But it can be seen that this person has a good impression of himself.

In Han Sanping's car.

Sitting in the back row were Han Sanping and the person in charge of the liaison with Li Chen.

"He's a young man with ideas, but this kind of low-budget, fast-food comedy movie is destined to fail to make any waves."

"Please help as much as you can with publicity and promotion."

"I understand, Mr. Han."

The cinema already has the Lost on Journey poster.

Led by Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, several female characters are distributed on both sides like the two wings of an airplane.

The top line of text on the poster is very impressive: The most anticipated hilarious road comedy of 2003.

In addition to the eye-catching looks and expressions of the two leading actors, the appearance of several supporting actresses also attracted a lot of attention.

On June 25, the General Administration’s public notice board showed
Movie title: Crazy Stone

Filing unit: Rongchen Film Co., Ltd.

Screenwriter: Li Chen

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

What’s going on? It’s just a movie that was completed and hasn’t been released yet.

This second part is coming out?

Are young people nowadays so efficient?
Efficient? Funny, right?

Movies are not fast food that can be eaten by simply putting together something.

What does this kid do? He must have a mine to build something like this.

There was a lot of discussion online.

Li Chen ignored all this. Only the box office could make those who laughed at the joke shut up.

He contacted several of Shi Tou's leading actors, and fortunately they all had schedules, so the film was cheap and affordable.

Lian Jin from Hong Kong Island has remained lukewarm and no one is interested in him since he came to the mainland to develop his business.

This person is King Liu’s classmate at TVB.

But the current situation can only be described as heaven and earth.

Teacher Li called Li Chen to his office.

I advised him not to act so hastily.

There is no one like him. One movie has just been finished and hasn’t been released yet, but another one is already started.

However, the matter is done and Teacher Li cannot change it. He said at the end: Try to find actors from the school.

The answer I got was that it had already been found.

When Mr. Li heard the candidates, he nodded and said, "Yes, these people are indeed cheap and affordable as you said."

"I won't say anything more. Let's just come to school for post-production."

"However, the production fee still needs to be paid."

"Haha, don't worry about that, teacher."

"I can't let my own people down even if I lose myself."

On June 30th, all the actors came to the company to sign their contracts.

Holding the script in a file bag.

Li Chen treated everyone to a meal and they just got to know each other.

We have made an appointment to meet in the mountain city at the end of August.

The crew members will go there in mid-August to prepare.

The filming officially started on September 2nd.

In the professional course of the Department of Performance, Luo Jin listened to the class attentively, while Zhu Yawen next to him was a little sleepy.

The TV series "Sunshine and Rainy Season" starring him has just finished filming.

Just when I was half asleep and half awake, the cell phone vibrated.

Zhu Yawen shuddered and lost all sleepiness.

I picked up the phone from under the table and saw that it was not mine.

He took another look and frowned, "Lao Luo, your phone is ringing."

Luo Jin took a look and saw that it was indeed the case. He smiled and whispered, "Sorry to disturb your sweet dream."

He picked up the phone and quickly lowered his body to answer the call: "Director Li."

"Yes, I'm in class. OK, got it. Don't worry, I will definitely be there on time."

Zhu Yawen heard Luo Jin's voice and came over to whisper, "Is it Director Li Chen from the Directing Department?"

Although Zhu Yawen's voice was soft, it was still heard by the girl in front.

Luo Jin nodded and said, "Yes, Director Li called and said that he will lead the crew to do door-to-door promotion starting tomorrow."

"China Film Group has also arranged a media meeting and TV show interviews. Director Li said that there is a possibility that the Sixth Princess will appear on the show."

"So awesome! My buddy starred in a TV series, but why does it feel so inferior compared to you?"
