Entertainment Empire System

Director Li also understood very well after hearing these words that publicity and public relations are very important. He also hopes that although the winner is not 100% sure of winning, if publicity and public relations are used, then the probability of winning at this time will be very high. He didn't want to go back empty-handed. He also wanted to go back with the trophy, but the crew didn't have the money.

Ye Ming also saw at this time that the crew really had no money, and the director seemed hesitant to speak.

At this time, Ye Ming said very simply: "Mr. David, tell me, if we are doing publicity and public relations at this time, how much will it cost to achieve good results? Money is not important to me. The problem is, if we want to do it, we will do our best.”

Having money makes it easy to do things, which made David feel energetic at this time. He hesitated for a moment, probably calculating the required expenses, and then said: "I roughly calculated it. At this time, if we want to do something bigger, If we want to leave a deep impression on everyone, we need to find some public relations companies. At this time, we also need to rent some venues to show our film and invite some people at the film festival to watch it, especially some important figures. , these all require a certain fee, probably between 200,000 and 300,000."

Ye Ming said firmly without hesitation: "Okay, then I will give you 500,000. Find me the best public relations company, find me the best theater, and invite me to attend the Berlin Film Festival. Identity is most important." I have invited some media reporters and corresponding judges and so on. Anyway, invite me all you can to make the whole thing more grand. But one thing I want to say is that I don’t take this money for nothing. ,right?

As for this money, after we sell the film rights, we must first make corresponding deductions. If it does not reach 500,000, I will deduct it in proportion. If it reaches 500,000, then I will deduct another 500,000, and then I will Enjoy corresponding dividends.

There seems to be a lot of overseas copyrights, and they all belong to you, Mr. David. This must be done with your consent. "

Producer David, of course, also hopes that the film will win awards. He likes money, but he likes fame even more, because in Europe and the United States, it is easier to make money after you have a reputation.

If you win the prize, you will definitely be able to sell it for a high price. If you don't win the prize, you won't be able to sell it for much money even if you sell it.

So, David said without hesitation: "There is no problem with this. Whoever invests will benefit. This is standard business behavior. I definitely have no objection to it. We can write this into the contract."

It's easy to do things if you have money. I will definitely handle this matter beautifully. Although I can't say 100% that I will win the award, I am 100% sure that this film will be remembered by everyone at the Berlin Film Festival. Make a deep impression.

In this case, even if our Black Frame film fails to win the award in the end, you will definitely be deeply impressed by Director Li and Mr. Ye Ming as the leading actor. Next time if any of your works come to the Berlin Film Festival If so, everyone will think that you should be acquaintances and direct relatives of the Berlin Film Festival, and they will naturally take care of your works.

So even if we don't win the prize, our money will not be wasted. Please rest assured, Mr. Ye Min. no pain no gain. That's the truth. "

At this time, Ye Ming nodded and said: "Okay, let's prepare the contract first, and then I will transfer the money to your account. Let's hurry up on this matter as soon as possible, otherwise other film crews will come over If we continue to do this, we will appear to be a little behind."

David immediately nodded and said: "That's not the truth. We have to seize every opportunity as soon as possible. Don't worry about the contract. I'm ready. I'll be ready when I come. If you agree , then I will sign a contract with you, and then I will do this. Today, I will definitely ensure that the film Black Frame will become famous at the Berlin Film Festival.

Within two days, I can guarantee that almost all mainstream media will issue exclusive interviews on this aspect.

There is also a special issue published by the organizing committee. I will also contact people to do an in-depth report. Anyway, I can maximize the use of media resources for publicity.

The people in the public relations company are still very good at it. As long as we are responsible for paying the price, we can hold a cocktail party tonight. "

Speaking of things like this, David is a professional, and a professional is a professional. He actually carried the contract with him. When he saw that the matter was almost discussed, he took out the contract directly.

This should be one of the reasons why David works so hard to help. There is money to be made. As an overseas producer, in addition to the profits from some of his overseas copyrights, in fact, this kind of public relations also has his own commission. Yes, these are all established rules.

Ye Ming looked at the contract and found that there was nothing suitable. This was a public relations contract, including the responsibilities and rights of both parties as well as payment terms, so he signed it directly, and then transferred $500,000 to David.

Soon, the account arrived from the bank, and David immediately said: "Okay, then I will start the relationship and contact the person. You can just wait tonight. I will hold a grand party in the hotel and bring Berlin to Berlin." Most of the celebrities related to the film festival will be invited.

At least Chairman Robinson will come more than half of the time. If he is in Berlin now, I will try my best to find him. The unit is also a kind of hard-working producer. After receiving the money, he goes straight to work.

At this time, Li Dongfeng and Director Li said worriedly: "Ye Ming, you just gave him 500,000 US dollars. Good guy, how much did we spend on the whole movie? You just gave him 500,000 US dollars." Just throw it out. Aren't you afraid that the money will go down the drain?

I have confidence in our film, but I have no confidence in the Berlin Film Festival.

If this money is really wasted, I feel a little sorry for you. "

Ye Ming said with a smile: "This is just a big gamble. Don't worry, director. Just like David said about our movie, well, if we don't do public relations or promote it, who will recognize us? You said Is it you or me that deserves to be valued by others about where we are going?

No, the key is that we have nothing, right?

This is definitely not possible. Our heroine is not here, so at this time, the most famous person in our crew is actually Sister Mi.

Moreover, he is still well-known in China. After he goes abroad, he probably won’t know too much about it. Sister Mi, it’s not that I look down on you. The only thing our domestic stars can do internationally is You can check it out. "

At this time, Damimi didn't have any excessive rebuttal. She didn't understand the domestic entertainment industry yet, let alone the international one. She knew this very well.

Therefore, Damimi nodded calmly and said: "I don't deny this. I came here just to attend the red carpet, just to put some gold on my face.

Among our domestic actresses, there are really only two or three big cats and kittens that are truly internationally renowned. I don’t deny this.

I am the one who has been on the red carpet and is the most famous among our team. To be honest, I do not deny that the crew does lack characters who can carry the banner. "

At this time, Ye Mingcai said seriously: "Director, you heard it too, is this the case?

David has just said it, you are a new director, you have no aura at all, the organizing committee doesn’t even know who you are, it would be easier if Director Zhang came, then the internationally renowned director and organizing committee The chairmen and judges of the conference are all very familiar old friends. It doesn’t matter if they come to promote it or not.

As long as people come, it's publicity, but we haven't reached that point. I'm not an international star. I'm just a newcomer in China starting to enter the entertainment industry again, so we don't have any leverage at all. .

The most famous member of our crew is Sister Mi. To be honest, even if she is famous, she is still in China. The two of us are not even famous in China.

However, although our film was selected by the Berlin Film Festival, our crew did not have a role that we could handle. If we didn't take action, we were destined to be a movie about accompanying the prince to study. It was very difficult for us. We have come this far. It can be said that our movie can come this far. It is the kind of luck that smokes from the ancestors' graves. I guess we may not have such good luck in the future, so since we With such good luck to get to this point, why don’t we give it a try?

But don’t worry, I’m not just taking a gamble. Our film has actually passed the preliminary selection and entered the main competition, which means that we have indeed been recognized by some people, otherwise the judges would not Maybe it brought our movie over.

In this case, even if we don't win the award, our film will still be appreciated by a certain number of film producers.

Because if we can be shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival, it at least proves that our film art image is no problem, so we can always sell some copyrights. As for how many we can sell, it’s hard to say. Anyway, in the end, we won’t be able to get a single point. The money can't be sold, otherwise there would be no point in Berlin Lin's participation.

Even the Berlin Film Festival Organizing Committee will not see this happening, so we will definitely sell some copyrights by then. Even if I invest in these copyrights in advance, it will more or less allow me to get back some funds. ,right?

Even if it's a loss, I can't lose all the 500,000, so I'll give myself a chance, but one thing is true, I am indeed my wife.

But it doesn’t matter, now is the period when my career is on the rise. If I can really win an award, then I will have at least one international award close to me. Now that I am in China, I will have some confidence to work in the entertainment industry. So you don't have to worry about money.

I invested this money willingly. Now that I'm here, of course I want to go to the top floor to see how beautiful the scenery is. "

Ye Ming had already said this. Of course, Director Li had nothing else to say except thank you. Ye Ming had great trust in him and asked people to come over to shoot the black frame with just one sentence. And at the film festival, he even used his own money to promote the crew.

After thanking each other, both parties dispersed.

As for David, he does have two skills. If someone dares to ask for 500,000, it must be reasonable. An hour after this, he had already contacted three print magazines for interviews, and two TV stations came over. Do a special show.

Director Li and Ye Ming were very busy during the day today.

Da Mimi didn't have much to do, but no matter what, she showed up in front of the camera as a vase.

Let’s not talk about anything else. As a vase, Da Mi Mi is definitely very eye-catching. That vase also makes foreigners amazed, especially Da Mi Mi, with her proud figure, she is also very eye-catching. Brilliant.

And since she is coming to the Berlin Film Festival, Damimi naturally looks for the media to guide her. Today she also found time to go to various iconic places of the film festival for exclusive interviews, photos, etc., regardless of whether she has any works to participate in. , but sister arrived at the Berlin Film Festival.

As for the party in the evening, news came over there at 5pm, and David called to say it was at 7pm.

It will be a grand movie party. When the time comes, the chairman of the jury, Robinson, and most of the judges will come to attend.

What David meant was very simple. He asked Director Li, Ye Ming and others to prepare for today's movie party. This is a very good place to promote movies.

Just for this reason, Ye Ming specially changed the location of the crew to the luxurious Hilton Hotel.

Hilton Hotel is a well-known international hotel chain. Although I can’t say it is the most expensive hotel in Bolin, at least Hilton Hotel is among the most expensive.

Anyway, living here is expensive. It is really expensive. But, as David said, your crew is not well-known, so everyone needs to see the crew’s financial resources.

When you meet for the first time, a crew that is not short of money will always leave a deep impression on others. It doesn’t matter what kind of impression you have, whether it is a wealthy person or a pioneer in literature and art. Anyway, you have to leave an impression on others first. .

If others don't even have the slightest impression, who will remember your movie Black Mine? So it is imperative to change hotels at this time.

Hilton Hotel, one of the most expensive hotels in Berlin.

Of course, this is also part of David's plan. Changing hotels is a must. After changing hotels, Director Li and Ye Ming will share a presidential suite.

Because David planned to invite Robinson to the room to have a private discussion with Director Li and others. If it were an ordinary room, it would not show the crew's financial resources.

Therefore, the presidential suite looks more luxurious. At least this kind of tall house will show respect for Robinson, the chairman of the jury.

Damimi was lying on the sofa in the presidential suite at this time and said lazily: "Ye Zi is a really nice place. The five-star presidential suite is really nice. This is my first time staying in this kind of room. Don't worry about it while filming." When it comes to staying in a star-rated hotel, having a single room is already considered good.

It would be great if one day Yue can stay in a five-star hotel while filming. "

At this time, Ye Ming also said very confidently: "Sister Mi, don't worry, there will definitely be no problem with this matter. Sooner or later, you will stay in a five-star hotel when filming. When the time comes, you can stay in the hotel." It’s so annoying when you see the hotel.”

At this time, Damimi glanced at the window, and then said: "Please close the curtains. I am wearing Victoria's Secret now. What should I do if someone sees me? You are serious. You should pay attention to it when you go abroad. It’s a matter of privacy.”

At this time, Ye Ming took a wet tissue and handed it over, and then said: "When we were working just now, you didn't ask me to close the curtains, and now you say it again, but don't worry, I've already seen this matter, and it's the presidential suite." Thin glass is not ordinary glass, it is one-way glass.

From the window, we can see the scenery outside, but it is impossible for people outside to see the scenery inside our room, so this is no problem.

But Sister Mi, you still have to clean up quickly. We still have to attend the party. As one of the hosts, it would be inappropriate if we were late, right? "

At this time, Damimi nodded and said: "Don't worry, I'm already prepared. I've prepared clothing, headgear and other items in advance. The company also specially used connections to find famous international brands that have not yet been put on the market." The latest model, this one was only allowed to be borrowed for the sake of the Berlin Film Festival.

I will never hold you back in your work. I will definitely hold on to the scene. "
