Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 286 Tian Tian is here
Future No. 17 visited Los Angeles on the 18th, and the full text of the "Memorandum of Understanding on China-US Films" was released in China on the th, which aroused heated discussions among domestic filmmakers.

So there really is no room for personal gain.

The delegation returned to China on the 18th. Li Qiutang said that she had some private work to finish in Los Angeles and would not return with the group.

He arrived in Beverly Hills and first walked into Cartier jewelry.

He was not very familiar with jewelry terminology, but after explaining for a while, the Cartier staff finally understood.

Li Qiutang wants to customize a 5.20 carat ring for a girl.

This is a big deal! A big deal that only comes once in ten years! !

This kind of customized customers generally don’t raise their demands in the store. Doesn’t Li Qiutang understand this?

"If you guys can't do it at Cartier, I'll go to Bulgari and Chaumet next door."

Whether we can do it or not, we must keep this Oriental guy.

"Yes, we can. There is no ring in the world that Cartier can't make." The salesgirl enthusiastically invited Li Qiutang into the VIP room.

Beverly Hills is full of hidden talents. Although this Oriental man is not dressed in luxurious clothes, who knows if he is a multi-millionaire. There are also many people in Hollywood who like to pretend to be ordinary people and show off in luxury stores.

But the first question after entering the VIP room stumped Li Qiutang: "What is the girl's finger circumference?"

Huh? There is such a thing as finger circumference?
Li Qiutang was confused, how could he understand this!
You just need to buy a ring and put it on, why does it require a ring size?
Li Qiutang left Cartier dejectedly, thinking about settling on the ring first.

Maybe because he had done something embarrassing, Li Qiutang didn't feel comfortable going to Toronto to see his girlfriend.

Anyway, she is about to wrap up and will be returning to China next week. It will be the same when we meet then.

Apart from a few people in the company who knew that Li Qiutang participated in the negotiation of the new Sino-US film agreement as a consultant, the outside world had no idea what Li Qiutang had been doing in the past two months.

In the past few days, Zhang Zhao has been talking about the discussion about the new agreement in the country.

Zhang Zhao believes that although the signing of the new agreement will have an impact on the domestic film market, this impact will be short-lived and the agreement will also have a positive role in promoting the development of the domestic market.

He personally and internally in the fall felt that there were challenges under the new agreement, but more opportunities.

Because the profit-sharing treatment for Sino-US co-productions has been improved, many American film companies that were unable to get a share of imported films have set their sights on this piece of meat and are actively contacting domestic film companies for co-productions.

Domestic film companies also responded positively.

There was also a lot of turmoil inside Autumn. Their boss had a company in Hollywood, which gave Autumn the most unique advantage in China to do Sino-US co-productions.

Many domestic companies want to borrow autumn’s boat, and Zhang Zhao has been busy with these things recently.

After returning to China, Li Qiutang adjusted to the jet lag for two days and then went back to work.

Perhaps in order to strengthen its own strength, Century Autumn brought in Red Star House to produce a TV series together.

Red Star House is worried about the lack of business. They are not willing to be just a film and television promotion and distribution company. Although they made a lot of money from "Love Is Not Blind", who would not want to move up the industry?

We have to do publicity and promotion, and we also have to do production.

The two companies hit it off and decided to start their first collaboration on "Parents' Love", which will start filming this year.

Red Star House still retains Da Huzi's shares. Da Huzi has extensive connections in the drama circle and is an old acquaintance of Cao Ping, so there is no need to say much.

Zhang Jizhong couldn't take out his shares in Red Star House in the short term, so he might as well give it a try to see if he could make it work. He was also willing to cooperate with Cao Ping.

Li Qiutang had no objection. He only asked Hongxingwu not to engage in artist management and he would not interfere too much in other businesses.

You won’t know until you see it. Red Star House became famous in the industry after the movie “Love Is Not Blind”.

Many movies turned to Red Star House for marketing, trying to replicate the miracle of "Love Is Not Blind".

Red Star House has gained some experience in this area.

So far, "Empresses in the Palace" has been broadcast on 18 local TV stations, with three more to be broadcast. The satellite channel has also been negotiated, and by the end of next month, four channels will broadcast it simultaneously.

"The Legend of Zhen Huan" has been popular on local TV stations and has received very good ratings. Now it is waiting for the test of being broadcast on satellite TV.

The company wanted to sell the copyright while the market was hot to make up for the losses, but was once again stopped by Li Qiutang.

Now is not the time.

Li Qiutang doesn't remember what the ratings were for "The Legend of Zhen Huan" when it was broadcast on satellite TV, but he remembers that this year the "Zhen Huan Style" meeting became popular on the Internet and fed back to the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

That would be a good time to sell the copyright of "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Li Qiutang has been holding back the copyright of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and refusing to sell it, which has actually caused dissatisfaction in the Copyright Operation Department.

It was you who asked me to run it, and now that I want to run it, you won't let me sell it.

Li Qiutang's reason was: "Wait another two months, and it will be ready for sale in two months."

He is the boss, but he also has to give reasons to convince his subordinates to listen to him.

"I bet that 'The Legend of Zhen Huan' will be a hit if it's broadcast on satellite TV." Li Qiutang also made a bet with the copyright department. He believed that the average viewership of 'The Legend of Zhen Huan' in the first round of broadcast on satellite TV would exceed 1, and the ratings for the finale would exceed 2.

Li Qiutang lost, so he invited everyone in the copyright department to dinner.

After leaving the company, Li Qiutang planned to go and see the post-production of "The Ordinary Man". While in the car, the phone rang.

"Hello. Who is this?"

"Brother Li." A girl's voice sounded familiar. If Liu Yifei heard it, she would think that Li Qiutang had done something to let her down.

"Tiantian, what's the matter?"

"Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to dinner."

"If you have something to say, just tell me. I may not be free in the evening."

"Oh, it's nothing actually. I just heard that you returned to China, so I wanted to catch up with you."

"I appreciate your kindness. You don't have to spend money on the reception." Li Qiutang could tell that Jing Tian wanted to see him for something, but he was really pressed for time. "Are you in Yanjing now? If you are, come to such and such place. I have some work to do here. I'll buy you a drink later."

Li Qiutang really didn't have time to eat a proper meal.

It can be heard that Jing Tian is very happy that Li Qiutang is willing to see her: "Okay, I'll come over."

When Li Qiutang arrived at the place, she went to watch the post-production first. More than half an hour later, she received a call from Jing Tian, saying that she had arrived downstairs.

Li Qiutang didn't want to get involved, so she didn't call her up. Instead, she finished her work here and went downstairs to pick up Jingtian.

There is no coffee shop nearby, only a milk tea shop.

"Do you drink milk tea?"

Jing Tian didn't mind at all: "Drink it, I also buy it secretly myself, but my agent won't let me, hehe."

They each held a cup of milk tea. Jing Tian came to see Li Qiutang for no other reason than to ask him to give her some advice.

Her performance is too bad. "Warring States" failed, and "Time and Space Rescue" in the Spring Festival also failed.

All the criticism from netizens was directed at her alone.

She couldn't talk to other directors, and others didn't talk to her either. Those directors came for the money and star power, and no matter how she performed, they would just say good things.

The biggest and most professional figure Jing Tian knows in this circle is Li Qiutang. She can feel that Li Qiutang does not hate her and is willing to talk to her.

After listening to Jing Tian's complaints, Li Qiutang didn't know what to say. He certainly knew what Jing Tian's problem was, and he believed that the directors and actors who had worked with her before also knew her problem, but there was no need for others to tell her.
