Chapter 341, Chapter 339

"New play?"

Shen Qiushan frowned slightly. Although his preparation for the new play was not a commercial secret, it was only known to a small group of people in the company. But Tiana got the news, so it can be seen that she still has some concerns about Shen Qiushan's every move. special attention.

"Miss Tiana is very well informed." Shen Qiushan handed the brewed coffee to Tiana.

"There is an old saying in China that there is no impenetrable wall, not to mention that Director Shen is still a hot director, and his every move will naturally attract more attention." Tiana held the cup of steaming coffee and gently sniffed it. Sniff the fragrance that wafts out and enjoy it.

Shen Qiushan smiled, poured himself a glass of white water, sat back on the sofa with Tiana, and said slowly: "Since Miss Tiana talked about the new play, I will chat with you, the film I am going to shoot The new play has a military theme, and there are many hot scenes. Therefore, there is really an opportunity to cooperate with your company, such as special effects production. Hollywood technology has always been leading in the world. We can cooperate in this area, and there is , I need some foreign actors, and I can also be recommended by your company, but our cooperation is almost limited to these."

"That's it? I mean we can fund and let you direct a film." Tiana frowned slightly, and said what she meant.

Shen Qiushan shook his head: "I made a rule on the day when Shen's Entertainment was established. The movies produced by Shen's Entertainment must be fully invested by us, so that many unnecessary troubles can be avoided."

"Are you afraid that you don't have the absolute right to speak?" Tiana shrugged: "This is negotiable, and funding may not necessarily interfere with your filming. We are very professional, unlike some of your domestic funders."

"It's not all because of this reason." Shen Qiushan shook his head with a light smile. What Tiana said was only one of the reasons. Most of the bad movies in China are largely due to the random command of the funders. Many funders think that they If you pay the money, you are the uncle, not only to direct the direction of the shooting, but also to install some actors who were originally very inappropriate.

In addition to this, it is relatively troublesome to distribute benefits when there are more investors, and many investors also have various requirements for implantation...

All in all, there are many disadvantages of joint production, especially in the current environment of the Chinese film and television industry, but at present, most films will still choose joint production, especially some large-scale productions, because it can indeed avoid unsatisfactory production. There is less risk, so that after a movie hits the street, the production company of the producer will not go bankrupt directly.

However, the films that Shen Qiushan chose to shoot had all been tested by the market, so basically there was no problem of hitting the street, so he dared to set the rule of sole proprietorship of all the films produced by Shen's Entertainment.

"Well, it seems that Director Shen has his own principles of doing things." Tiana took a sip of coffee lightly, the cooperation is indeed the idea of ​​the Columbia head office, but it is only tentative.

"Military subjects don't seem to be popular in China, why did Director Shen suddenly want to shoot such subjects?" Tiana asked casually.

"There is no particular reason, I just want to shoot!" Shen Qiushan said lightly.

"Oh, is it convenient to reveal the name of the movie?" Tiana asked again.

"OPERATION RED SEA, of course this is a tentative name, and it may be changed." Shen Qiushan didn't hide anything, anyway, it's okay to reveal a name.

"Oh, it sounds pretty good." Tiana actually didn't think so. As the vice president of the Asian region of Columbia Film and Television Productions, she still knows Chinese movies very well. Over the years, the overall level of Chinese local movies has always been low. Therefore, she was not so concerned about the military-themed film Shen Qiushan was about to shoot.

"The premiere of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is on the 19th of this month, of course it is North American time, so I hope that Director Shen and your team will make preparations in advance. Please let me know as soon as the schedule is confirmed. I will report to the headquarters." Tiana brought the topic back to the premiere of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which is also the main reason for her visit this time.

"OK, so where is the premiere?" Shen Qiushan asked.

"New York!" Tiana replied.

"Ok."

Shen Qiushan nodded slightly.

……

in the afternoon.

The news that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won six Oscar nominations is still fermenting, but Shen Qiushan poured "a barrel of oil" on the original enthusiasm, announcing on his Weibo that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" North American release dates, and the news that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon will hold its premiere in North America.

"Hold the grass! Hold the premiere in North America? No domestic film has done this before!"

"Uncle Shan is mighty, and has created a new record for Chinese-language movies!"

"Is it going to be released in North America so soon, I wish the box office a big hit!"

"Wow, I'm in America, and I'm going to see Uncle Shan's new movie soon, so excited!"

"666, Uncle Shan is truly amazing, I wish the North American box office a big hit!!"

"..."

As soon as Shen Qiushan's Weibo came out, the comment area exploded without any surprise.

Everyone in the Shen family retweeted Shen Qiushan's Weibo one after another, spreading the news that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was about to be released in North America and the premiere ceremony would be held.

at the same time.

Shen Qiushan, who was sitting in the office thinking about the cast of the new drama "Operation Red Sea", received a call from Qin Yazhi.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is going to premiere in North America? Do I want to attend too??"

As soon as the phone was connected, Qin Yazhi couldn't wait to ask.

"I'm about to call you to let you know your schedule." Shen Qiushan responded lightly.

"What about the Oscars? As the main creator, can I also attend?" Qin Yazhi asked again.

"Theoretically, that's the case. Of course, you can choose not to go." Shen Qiushan smiled.

"Cut~! The devil won't go! I haven't walked the Oscars red carpet yet!" Qin Yazhi snorted and said with a smile: "By the way, brother-in-law, I heard that you are going to open a new play? Why is it suitable for me? character of?"

"No, no, there must be a role that suits me. I mean, is the female lead decided? If not, I can play the role at a reduced salary." Having tasted the sweetness of cooperating with Shen Qiushan, Qin Yazhi began to pursue Shen Qiushan again. The role in Akiyama's new play.

Hearing Qin Yazhi's words, Shen Qiushan was overjoyed. Right now he is considering the actor of "Operation Red Sea".

"It's a pity, my new play is a man's play, and the roles of female characters are very limited." Shen Qiushan sighed pretending to regret.

"Male drama? No heroine??" Qin Yazhi was dubious.

"It can be said that there is no heroine, because there are not many female roles." Shen Qiushan said truthfully.

"Even if there are not many, if there are female characters, I can play the female character with the most tricks." Qin Yazhi said happily.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiushan was happy again: "Are you sure you will play the female role with the most roles?"

"Affirmative and affirmative!!" It could be heard from the tone of Qin Yazhi's ambition.

"Okay, then I'll keep it for you. However, I agreed in advance that my shooting is a military theme, and it may be very hard." Shen Qiushan explained kindly.

"Don't be afraid of hard work, as an actor, you must have professionalism!" Qin Yazhi spoke eloquently.

"OK, then it's a deal~!"

Seeing Qin Yazhi's quick answer, Shen Qiushan couldn't help but smile with a bewildered smile.
