Huayu: When the director changed his major

Chapter 367 Who is "Wait a moment"

Chapter 367 Who is "Wait a minute"

While Cheng Xi was deep in thought, Deng Jie suddenly said:

"By the way, Boss, the information you asked me to investigate about the producers related to Yang Mi has also been completed."

"In the past six months, she has participated in the production of three TV series and two movies. There are a total of 3 creative producers, four women and eight men. According to your requirements, we are focusing on selecting those who are around 2 years old, male, and from Yanjing. Only two people with strong or slightly plump builds are left."

"One is called Yang Changgong, and the other is called Guo Yanchun."

Cheng Xi had some impression of the names of these two people.

Looking at the information again, both of them have good resumes.

I have been a producer and director, but now I am in the production field.

In fact, when Cheng Xi first looked for the producer's information, he was just trying his luck.

Cheng Xi was also curious at the time and wondered about the identity of this man.

If it were an ordinary character, there would be no chance to be alone in the room with Yang Mi after drinking.

My guess is that they are investors, directors, producers and other people who have more contact with Yang Mi in the circle.

After all, this person probably knows Liu Kaiwei, and the probability that he is someone in the circle is very high.

As the director said, a tall tree attracts the wind, and who it was was discovered immediately.

If it is a leader or a very big name, it is impossible for it to leak.

So that leaves the producers.

This also confirms the news that came out before.

Otherwise, Cheng Xi wouldn't even think of trying his luck with the producer.

Current data also supports that there are indeed two characteristics that match the previous Yanjing accent and strong or fat body.

The most important thing is that in the recent period, we have also cooperated with Yang Mi.

This made Cheng Xi feel that he had grasped the right direction.

Otherwise how could it be such a coincidence.

But even if my analysis is correct, who are these two producers?
Guo Yanchun and Yang Mi collaborated on "Fall in Love with You".

Yang Changgong and Yang Mi collaborated on "Tiny Times".

They are all recent works.

Especially the movie version of "Fall in Love with You" will be released at the end of April.

If you can't figure it out, then the person who tied the bell must be found to solve it.

So Cheng Xi simply took out his cell phone and called Yang Mi.

After several beeps, Yang Mi's unique voice came from the phone, as if she had just woken up.

"Cheng Xi?"

"You think of me too, huh? Are you here to check if I've been drinking?"

This lazy guy is still in bed.

I've been working hard on your matter for several days. When it's resolved, I will definitely ask you for interest.

Otherwise you will lose a lot of money.

Cheng Xi: "Who's checking on you so early in the morning? Let me tell you something serious. Are you familiar with Yang Changgong and Guo Yanchun?"

"Yes, I do. What's the matter? You want to work with them? Let me tell you, these two producers are perverts. They've taken advantage of countless women. Be careful."

After hearing what Yang Mi said, Cheng Xi felt more and more that he was right.

There is a sense of pleasure in getting closer to the truth and solving the case.

And both of them are lustful.

Being lustful is easy to deal with, and it also fits the characteristics, so Cheng Xi continued to ask:

"Have you met with them recently?"

"Um, well, I'm not sure. But I haven't seen Producer Yang in a while, but I did meet Producer Guo last month. We should be getting together at the end of the month when we're on promotions."

Cheng Xi became excited when he heard this.

"Well, please see when the schedule is set. If you meet with this producer Guo, remember to let me know."

"Okay. You've been acting weird lately."

Before Yang Mi finished speaking, she heard a beeping sound.

"That damn Cheng Xi, how dare he hang up on your senior sister directly."

After saying that, he angrily threw his phone away, hugged his pillow and continued to take a nap.

I hope I can bully this junior fellow student in my dream.

Deng Jie watched her boss's actions. She was already curious about why he was investigating Yang Mi's relationships and finally couldn't help asking:
"Boss, do you suspect Yang Mi did something behind your back?"

When Cheng Xi heard this, the expression on his face became restrained and he looked at Deng Jie with a frown.

"You've been asking a lot of questions lately. I'll tell you what you need to know, but don't ask if you don't need to know."

Deng Jie immediately realized that he had talked too much and made his boss unhappy.

Normally she was cautious in her words and actions, but today she was really curious about why her boss was investigating the relationships around Yang Mi and specifically looking for the producer.

I even suspected that the boss had already accepted Yang Mi and was catching them cheating.

The second one was that I was just joking with the boss and the atmosphere was good, so I asked directly without paying attention.

"Boss, I'm sorry, I spoke too much."

"You know you're too talkative. If you can't keep your mouth shut, come to the boss."

Deng Jie felt much more relaxed when he saw that his boss was not really angry.

So he obediently came to the boss.

Gold-rimmed glasses, a tight skirt, stockings, and high heels.

A perfect professional lady outfit.

In response to the vagueness in front of him, Cheng Xi narrowed his eyes and leaned back.

Cheng Xi managed to calm down a little from the anger that Zhu Zhu had caused him yesterday.

Make you talkative.

If you don’t learn from your mistakes, how will you manage your subordinates next time?

Watching her tears flow like choking water.

It took a long time before he let her go.

But Cheng Xi's tone was still stern:

"If you talk too much again, this won't be the punishment."

"Don't let it happen again."

Deng Jie couldn't speak, so he could only look at Cheng Xi and nod like a chicken pecking at rice.

Only now did she realize that the boss was really a little unhappy.

Doing this is just to give yourself a way out.

It seems that from now on, I should not ask about my boss's privacy casually, no matter how curious I am.

After recovering a little, Cheng Xi said:
"Okay, it's almost time. Please arrange for the heads of each branch to report on their work."

Today is Friday, and the morning schedule is to listen to the heads of each branch and report on recent work.

First there was Lao Zeng from Zuibai Video Network, then Zhao Qiang from Zuibai Chinese Network, Liu Hongtao from Zuibai Mahua, Ma Hongjing from Zuibai Games, and Liu Qian, who was in charge of the daily operations at Zuibai Entertainment.
Everyone knows that the boss will be going to the United States for nearly half a year, and he has made good preparations.

I gave a detailed report on the achievements and difficulties of my recent work.

The last one is Li Wentao.

Cheng Xi happened to chat with him about Director Jiaozi and asked for the opinion of the company's second-in-command.

"Boss, do you admire him?"

"Yes. And we actually lack relevant talents in the animation field. This will also be a huge market in the future."

"Actually, I wanted to bring this up with the boss last time. The anime market is sweeping the globe, and we used to be able to compete with them in terms of cultural exports, but now it's all Pleasant Goat and Baldy Strong."

"To be honest, I'm angry at the lack of fighting spirit. If the boss wants to take action, I think it will be a good thing for both the audience and the industry, and I support it."

After hearing what Li Wentao said, Cheng Xi no longer hesitated.

God has given me a second life, filled with so much enjoyment, and it’s time for me to do something.

I want to pursue a major entertainment strategy because I feel the current entertainment industry is in such a mess. I certainly can't change the status quo on my own.

But these things must be done.

I don’t represent any circle now. If I have to say who I represent, it is more like the circle culture of the younger generation, many of whom are non-professionals.

Including Guo Fan, Xin Shuang and others, as well as the current Jiaozi, they are actually not from professional backgrounds.

But there is one characteristic, that is, they all have good college entrance examination scores.

The crossover film and television industry is also very professional.

Sometimes Cheng Xi thought, maybe let those who scored around 300 points in the exam and ended up pursuing art.

How can they manage and coordinate a film project?

People who work in the cultural industry must be cultured.

This sentence sounds like nonsense, but later it becomes a luxury.

If the Chinese film and television industry had always maintained a small workshop model, perhaps it would still be able to succeed.

Some people can even work together to get some resources, mix in some circles, and modify a good script to make it successful.

Or like the older generation of filmmakers, really take root in it.

It’s a pity that these old filmmakers are becoming less and less aware of what the audience needs.

If they only know how to educate the audience, it would be strange if they don't fail.

Not to mention the new filmmakers who made movies and TV series that were even worse than watching.

Including actors and directors.

An actor can still have a good appearance to support himself, and if he meets a good director, he can be trained.

But the director himself has poor aesthetic taste and ability, so it's no wonder that the movies after 2020 are as bad as shit.

It even ushered in a cold winter for the film industry.

The bottom line is that the audience has been deceived too many times and is unwilling to be fooled and spend money to eat shit.

The box office of "Nezha" was finally able to exceed 100 billion yuan because everyone was so excited.

I finally came across a good movie, so I started telling everyone about it, just like it was New Year's Day.

It is a state where overcorrection is necessary to correct a wrong.

So in the end everyone understood.

In fact, it is not a winter for the film and television industry, but a winter for junk movies and money-making movies.

Chinese audiences are the most tolerant.

As long as you respect the audience and tell a solid story, the audience will recognize you.

Give you money to vote.

Li Wentao: "How about I go to Chengdu myself and meet this dumpling director?"

In the conversation just now, based on Li Wentao's understanding of his boss, he knew that he was determined to win.

Since the company has grown bigger and stronger, the boss rarely cares so much about one person.

So he directly proposed to meet this fledgling animation director in the capacity of the CEO of Zuibai Entertainment.

Cheng Xi thought for a moment and said:

"Well, that's fine."

"Let's prepare the documents first. First, we are mainly talking about this person, and the contract must be long.

You should first evaluate his current company and offer him a favorable price.

The second is to see if he is willing to come to Yanjing.

If he doesn't want to, let him register under Zuibai Entertainment in the name of the studio, give them the same treatment as Guo Fan, and there will be no branch.

We can also accept all of their personnel, no problem there.

We can also use Chengdu as a small base for us.

The third is to provide money, resources and signs to support his current creation.

Give Director Jiaozi the greatest freedom and the final editing rights, but I can veto it."

Li Wentao wrote down each item one by one, and was more and more surprised the more he listened.

This treatment is even higher than Guo Fan's.

It can even be said that this treatment is given because they value this person's talent very much.

It can be said that if this contract is negotiated, Director Jiaozi will probably become a hot commodity in the animation industry.

You know, the influence of the "Zuibai" brand is no longer limited to the literary and art circles.

After explaining the situation to Li Wentao, the morning's reporting work was completed.

Cheng Xi finally had some time to rest.

night.

CCTV big pants.

The main creative team of "Nirvana in Fire", including Cheng Xi, Hu Ge, Li Xiaoran and others, are in the recording studio, being interviewed by the CCTV host.

This interview is not live broadcast, and the script has been given to everyone long ago.

There is no way, the drama has been confirmed to be broadcast on CCTV.

The people who least want this drama to be affected are the leaders of CCTV.

So we start after everything is arranged.

Cheng Xi and others answered some questions according to the script step by step. Except for Cheng Xi who had some personal expression, everyone else basically answered word for word.

Host: "Director Cheng, why did you invite Hu Ge and Li Xiaoran for this casting? Is there any special reason?"

This is another fixed issue in the script.

Cheng Xi pretended to think for a moment, then spoke freely:

"I have always loved the novel Nirvana in Fire, so when the time is right, I will bring it to the big screen.

As for why I chose Hu Ge and Li Xiaoran, one reason was my selfish motive.

2. We also consulted the original author Haiyan for his opinion.

Hu Ge is a very good actor. When I read the novel, Mei Changsu was based on him, and Xiao Ran is the perfect choice for Princess Nihuang."

The interview was going on in a friendly and comfortable atmosphere, but Li Xiaoran suddenly stretched out her hand and said:
"Excuse me, host, please pause for a moment."

Then he covered his mouth and ran out of the studio.

Cheng Xi said upon seeing this:

"Why don't you all take a break first, I'll go see what's going on."

Since Cheng Xi had spoken, the director and host certainly didn't dare to refuse.

So everyone was asked to rest on the spot for a while.

Cheng Xi quickly left the recording studio and headed towards the bathroom.

Hu Ge saw that both of them had left, so he stood up and said:
"I'll go take a look too."

When Cheng Xi approached the bathroom, he heard intermittent vomiting sounds.

Cheng Xi didn't want to embarrass Xiao Ran, and it was inconvenient for him to go into the women's restroom.

So I waited outside.

Not long after, Li Xiaoran came out after tidying up.

Seeing Cheng Xi waiting for him nearby, he couldn't help but smile gently:
"Da Cheng, it's nothing, I just caught a cold."
