Chapter 1,378 Important Props

The golden bottle contains fine wine and the same brand of sweet-scented osmanthus wine. Although wine doesn't understand your meaning, you won't stop until you get drunk. [Mid-Autumn Festival Excerpt No. 10]

Ye Ming is here. This matter makes Manager Zhou very surprised. In fact, at the beginning, he planned to contact Ye Ming somehow. Now he has come according to the invitation, but depending on the situation, if he wants to successfully win For this advertisement, the company gave a quota of 10 million, which is almost a joke.

Therefore, there is not much possibility of success in such a matter. Manager Zhou wants to contact the people of Huihuang.com. It is best to contact Ye Ming directly to see how this matter will be handled.

Ye Ming invited Bididi over. Anyway, it can't be said that he is leaving the person aside, right? Moreover, the cooperation between Bididi and Ye Ming is also very good. Whether it is the programs produced by Huihuang Film and Television or the online advertisements on Huihuang.com, Bididi attaches great importance to them.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the two families are allies. This may be a key reason why Ye Ming brought Bididi here. But no matter how good the relationship between the two families was, it would definitely be a surprise if Ye Ming came to visit him personally.

Because there is no reason for Ye Ming to come, there is no reason at all. Now Bididi is begging Ye Ming to do something, but Ye Ming comes to visit. No matter how this is understood, it is a bit inappropriate. of.

Regarding such a question, in fact, no matter how it was said, Manager Zhou was also an experienced person. He quickly adjusted his mentality. Ye Ming came. No wonder the translator was so surprised and asked directly Come over. At this moment, Ye Ming was waiting in the living room. The presidential suite naturally had a living room.

This Bididi is also a loser. Although we are just starting out in the automobile industry and are considered newcomers, we must not be looked down upon by others, especially when we go out to represent the image of Bididi. Don't be careless.

When Bididi's boss comes out, he can only live in a single room at most, which is already leadership-level treatment.

To be more specific, some middle-class people and salesmen in Bididi have three or five-bed double rooms, which is not to say that they have never stayed in them, but that they often stay in them. But this time when I came to the United States, I had my own competitors such as Hyundai and other car companies. The second generation of these companies came, and naturally they had presidential suite-level accommodation. Bididi couldn't lag behind. He was looked down upon by others. If When Manager Zhou came, he found a small hotel to stay in. His colleagues in the United States didn't like Didi, and they looked down on this car company that came out of nowhere. Now that Bididi has opened a small hotel, it will be looked down upon even more.

For those who are not familiar with each other, they first judge the strength of the other person based on their appearance, food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

Therefore, when Manager Zhou brought people here this time, he actually set the tone when he was at the company. It must be a presidential suite, the kind of big hotel. It is best to be in the same hotel as Hyundai and others. Their presidential suite, our bidi Di also has a presidential suite, at least in this aspect it is impossible to be worse than them.

In this regard, although Bididi is in the early stages of starting a business and is not very rich, the money that should be spent on such a thing cannot be saved. Money is earned, not saved. This has always been the motto of Bididi's boss. After Manager Zhou came out, he said excitedly: "Mr. Ye, I didn't expect that you would have time to come to us at this critical time. We feel very honored."

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Actually, there is nothing that requires me to be busy. After all, the bidding has not started yet, right? They are still preparing for the modern times. Director Rob Cohen of the Fast and Furious crew has already been able to do the rest. I was very busy. Therefore, I also had time to run over at this time. Because I don’t feel at ease with Bididi cars, so I decided to come over and have a look.”

Sometimes, you must give up part of your rights. One is that it is impossible for Ye Ming to handle everything in the entire crew. Otherwise, he would be too busy and would not be able to handle it at all. .

Therefore, as long as some key aspects, such as funding and the selection of leading actors, can be controlled well, then he can control the overall situation on such an issue.

What Ye Ming wants is to control the overall situation, not to control the crew. Ye Ming's vision is to layout Hollywood, not to control a Hollywood movie crew. Therefore, for some rights, Bifei said that it would be more appropriate for the director to do these things when receiving people from Hyundai and other automobile companies. After all, it is impossible for Ye Ming to do everything himself, right?

Therefore, on such a problem, Ye Ming finally had time to find Bididi. Manager Zhou immediately said politely: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for your concern. Actually, I really have some questions to ask you about such a matter. In fact, our company also has a problem with the movie Fast and Furious." We attach great importance to it and hope to cooperate with your crew. However, the price of this cooperation is indeed beyond our ability to bear. If we were to bear it at a price of five million, it would be our advertising expenses for several years. The company would not be able to bear it. Will agree.

Therefore, I would like to ask Mr. Ye if there is a more suitable price for us to participate in the filming of this movie in a way that is more acceptable to everyone. Anything within 10 million is almost acceptable.

If it's any more, it's not something I can decide. "

Manager Zhou can be said to be relatively abiding by the rules. He has 10 million decision-making powers, so he only wants to do things within 10 million. If it is more, he will definitely not be the master of the matter.

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Five million U.S. dollars, that's Hyundai's price. Hyundai's price is to use their own cars as important props in the movie. I heard that Dodge Company is also here, and it is estimated to be the highest. The price may still increase. Whether it is Hyundai, Honda or Toyota, they are all cars that have been tested in the American market. They are relatively cars recognized by Americans.

Therefore, there is no problem in using cars of these brands as important props in movies. But Bididi, to be honest, is a relatively new company in China. At this time, if you say that Bididi will be a major prop in the Fast and Furious movie, I guess Americans will Disapproved.

Just like our Chinese historical drama, if you put an Egyptian pyramid on top, it would be a bit inappropriate. Therefore, at this time, if the cooperation was actually done on my whim, it would be impossible to directly use it as an important prop. The price is also relatively high, and it’s not easy for me to explain to the crew and investors.

In this way, what I'm talking about is letting Bididi's car be used as a smuggling vehicle, and it can be used as a smuggling vehicle to participate in drag racing or something like that. I'll just give you a few shots at that time. Anyway, I'm from China, so I can't tell others anything using Bididi. Without the identity of the smuggling car, I can't think of how Bididi's car could be included in this movie. "

This is also very unconvincing, but what Ye Ming said is also very realistic. Bididi cars are indeed not qualified to be sold in the United States because they have not passed the relevant inspections in the United States. Therefore, with such a problem, it is simply impossible to drive in the United States.

But if you are talking about living as a smuggled car and participating in underground drag racing as a smuggled car, then such a thing is relatively easy. The United States is a relatively strict country in testing cars. After all, the United States is known as a country of cars. This completely shows the importance of cars to Americans.

Therefore, cars that fail to pass the inspection, or have not been inspected, have no chance of driving openly in the United States. After hearing about smuggling, Manager Zhou was still a little cautious. After all, Manager Zhou is a serious businessman. Although he may use other methods to do business, it is just a side effect, but smuggling is illegal. of.

Therefore, at such a time, Manager Zhou said decisively: "Mr. Ye, please finish driving. Our cars have not been inspected by the United States for the time being, so they cannot reach the United States for the time being. But if they are smuggled into In the United States, that is not necessary, and we will not do anything illegal."

This is naturally Bididi's bottom line. If Manager Zhou really agrees to this matter, he will definitely be dealt with immediately after he returns. Even Accountant Wang, who had already made up his mind not to smuggle the manager's actions, was very nervous at the moment and said: "Smuggling cars is unacceptable to our company. We are a legal car company. , some people will use smuggling paragraphs like this?

Even if you say you can't be in this movie, you can't do it like this. If a matter like this were to be known by a U.S. court, then such a matter would definitely be dealt with.

We will have no chance to enter the US market in the future. "

If this is found out, it will definitely be on the blacklist of the United States. If it is on the blacklist of the United States, then for such a thing, there will be no chance of entering the mainstream market in the United States in the future. This This is something Bididi Company would not be willing to see.

Bididi cars cannot be sold in the United States now, but it is impossible that they will never be sold in the United States. This is a matter of trying to catch a fish. Therefore, in such a situation, whether it is Manager Zhou or Accountant Wang, they are clearly opposed to the proposal of smuggling cars. This is almost certain. .

There was no one who said with a smile: "You two, you are like a warrior now. I meant that you were added to the movie as a smuggler of the car, not that your car was smuggled into the United States."

Accountant Wang didn't understand. After all, he was not very optimistic about the entertainment industry, and he was not familiar with the industry at all. It was difficult for him to figure out what props and props were.

Therefore, Accountant Wang said with some confusion: "Mr. Ye, I don't understand something. Aren't they all cars? To be honest, our Bididi cars have not been inspected by the relevant US departments and cannot enter the United States at all. Then In a situation like this, is another name justified? When this prop comes in, it is not just a car. This does not change the essence of the car at all. Will the Americans allow it to pass customs? "

This is because Accountant Wang is a member of the family. Therefore, in such a situation, he would make such a move. If it were an accountant like Bididi, he would not have the courage to ask. That question.

As for Manager Zhou, he actually had some doubts about the issue in Haozheng. After all, he had also thought about this issue. Isn't a prop car a car? Just like a topic like a white horse is not a horse, at this time, Manager Zhou also wanted to know the answer, so he did not stop Accountant Wang from asking such a question.

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Actually, this question is really difficult for laymen to understand. After all, these are some rules of Hollywood. A place like Hollywood is quite special. Local. Let me give you an example first. Let’s say it’s the Nazis. Related books, materials, signs, and even Nazi signs like this, if they appear in general places in the United States, it means that they are easy to create. Necessarily troublesome, this is illegal and sometimes subject to certain penalties. Most countries in the world, even Germany, will not spread this casually.

Therefore, it is actually the same in the United States. Spreading these things is easy to get litigated, but it is a little different in Hollywood. Hollywood only makes these things for the purpose of making movies and making props for making movies. So, these are not taboo things in Hollywood.

This is the difference between Hollywood and other places. You can use props to make some Nazi things. In fact, it is indeed necessary for making movies.

In the same way, for example, Bididi cars cannot be imported in other places in the United States. After all, your Bididi did not pass the inspection. But if it is used as a shooting prop or something, then there is a problem like this. , things are just much easier to explain.

Hollywood has Hollywood's privileges. If the crew applies for a few props or something, the customs will never stop them. After all, Hollywood has the capital behind it, so there is no problem in handling a customs. Our props are legal and do not violate US laws, but they have not passed the inspection of relevant departments. As long as our props are within a reasonable range, there will be no problem. "

This is indeed one of the most special places in Hollywood. Props, as long as we are talking about props, a car can still be obtained. If Universal doesn't even have this ability, then it really can't be considered one of the top eight companies in Hollywood.

In fact, even if Universal cannot solve this problem, Ye Ming himself can still solve this problem in the name of Huihuang.com.

Manager Zhou doesn't need to worry about these things at all. In fact, Manager Zhou is most worried about this. How will the car get to the United States? If it can't arrive, wouldn't it be wasted on such a problem?

If Ye Ming explained it like this, it would be a little more acceptable at this time.

Therefore, in such an environment, Manager Zhou breathed a long sigh of relief: "If it's not really smuggling local dialect, then there is no big problem in such a matter. But you also said just now Now, our Bididi car has not passed the relevant inspections in the United States. Therefore, regarding such a problem, it is almost impossible for our car to be shipped to the United States. This matter should be What’s the solution?”

Yes, it is impossible to transport Bididi's car to the United States. If you want to participate in Fast and Furious at this time, it is almost impossible to do it.

How can I participate in the filming of a movie if I don’t even have a car? Ye Ming smiled and looked confident in his clothes. He nodded and said: "Don't worry about this matter. Since I raised this issue, there will definitely be a solution to the problem." of.

I will apply for the Bididi car in the name of a prop if it is shipped to the test. In this case, it is not a big deal for our crew to come forward and transport it to the United States. But the key point is that at this time, if Bididi Motors wants to drive on American roads openly, it will be impossible to do so.

What we can do is to apply in the name of a prop. In this case, when we shoot the movie, the Bididi car will only be used as a movie prop. If this is the case, it will not violate the relevant regulations of the United States. At this time, it is a win-win situation for everyone. "

Props, this is in compliance with relevant laws and regulations. Therefore, the application for Fast and Furious is completely legal. In this case, it is a normal issue to apply for Bididi Car. In the United States, as long as you have enough reasons, then there is nothing to be afraid of when it comes to other problems.

One of Ye Ming's reasons for this is the most valid one. We are going to shoot a road movie, so the car used is the most important prop. So for such a problem, apply for a Bididi With cars as props, this is not a difficult problem.

Props and cars are essentially the same, but in fact, everyone knows the same thing. Manager Zhou was also very happy and said: "If we can use such an excuse to introduce Bididi's cars to the United States, then this matter will be a very big deal." ( To be continued)
