Chapter 272

Duan Xiaochen scooped up the poplar nectar with a happy face, put it into her sexy red lips, and savored it carefully.

But after only taking a few mouthfuls, she pushed the bowl of poplar nectar to Du Caige with great restraint, expressing her determination not to eat it.

Du Caige didn't persuade her, and silently ate it.

The few management personnel looked at this scene, both a little surprised and thoughtful.

It seems that the rumors are not groundless.

If it wasn't for the close relationship to a certain level, how could Duan Tianhou give the leftovers to Du Dong to eat!

Those who will do this are either relatives or boyfriends and girlfriends.

Ordinary friends are absolutely impossible.

But they didn't say anything.

Although the company is new, the division between superiors and subordinates is not so clear.Moreover, Duan Xiaochen and Du Caige are not the kind of people with big airs.

But they are experienced professionals who know when to show what gesture.

After seeing some clues, they all focused on destroying the dessert in front of them without squinting.

"Brother, is the new distribution system really so important?"

"Yes, it is very important."

"You can communicate with me first," Duan Xiaochen said coquettishly, "People first oppose and then support, and their attitude turns 360 degrees. How embarrassing."

"I didn't know this would be discussed at the meeting."

"It's all Chu Jixiang's fault for making a surprise attack." Duan Xiaochen said angrily.

"Well, it's all his fault." Du Caige agreed.It's fine if you don't die as a fellow Taoist.

After chatting for a while, Duan Xiaochen talked about business.

"We want to sign a few potential new directors and cultivate them into direct descendants. Brother, haven't you been paying attention to things in this circle? Can you recommend a few?"

The director of the production department and the deputy director in charge of film and television immediately lowered their heads, a little slanderous.

It's too much for you to ask Director Du for such a professional matter!

Du Dong is very powerful, but he is in the music circle.

You asked him about the film industry, didn't you ask Yu Blind?

Unreliable, unreliable!

But Du Caige thought about it, and gave a few names, all of which were interesting new directors he found while scanning the film.

Including Yu Shan who won the same prize with him in that competition.

Hearing these names, the deputy director of film and television showed surprise.

Because he had heard of these few people, and they were indeed highly regarded newcomers in the circle.

"Mr. Du is very discerning, and we are also paying attention to these directors. But they have already been watched by several big companies, and we have no advantage in competition," Xu Liang, the deputy director of film and television, interjected, "and most of the directors And I don’t want to sign a brokerage contract to bind myself.”

Du Caige said in a flat tone: "Try it, try it. For some new directors, the most important thing is the opportunity to direct independently. For this reason, it is okay to give up some freedom."

Xu Liang was taken aback and hesitated: "Director Du, are you going to promise them to direct a few films independently as a contract condition? This will indeed increase the possibility of signing, but is it not too risky?"

Duan Xiaochen looked at Du Caige with a smile, as if he was full of confidence, but he didn't seem to care at all.

As long as Du Caige says what to do, even if it is a mountain of knives or a sea of ​​fire, she dares to go for it.

Du Caige thought for a moment, nodded and said, "The director wants to make movies. You can agree to invest in them to make a few movies, for example, 5 movies in 5 years, each with an investment of no less than 500 million. Use such conditions to attract them to join."

"First, the investment amount will not be too large, and we will invite others to invest together to spread the risk. We can invest independently for less than 500 million yuan. For a movie with an investment of 1000 million yuan, we will invest 300500 million yuan ourselves."

"Second, they are all capable, and I believe they can make good commercial films."

"Third, we don't give them the final cutting power, and we check it ourselves. So looking at it this way, the risk is actually within the controllable range."

Xu Liang listened, not to mention being convinced, at least he couldn't find any faults on the surface, so he nodded and stopped talking.

Ouyang Lihai, director of the creative and production department, took over the conversation: "Well, let's follow up and try our best to sign two or three contracts to cultivate them as direct descendants of the company."

Du Caige knocked on the table unconsciously with his fingers: "You are the best, not so much. Among these directors, the focus is on Guan Shan, and he must be taken down. For the rest, try to fight for it. If it is impossible, there is no need to force it."

Ouyang Lihai was quite astonished, he didn't expect Du Caige to value Yu Shan so much.

Duan Xiaochen also had some tastes: "Is Yu Shan a female director? How old is she? Is she pretty?"

Du Caige touched his eyebrows helplessly.

Ouyang Lihai coughed and explained: "Director Yu Shan is male, 29 years old, with a master's degree in directing from Beijing Film Academy. He has a rough appearance and likes big bowls of wine and big pieces of meat."

Duan Xiaochen felt relieved.

She continued: "Actually, I have also contacted several directors through personal relationships, and some of them are not against joining us. Meng Zhaolong, do you know each other?"

Du Caige nodded: "I've seen his movies, and he's a good director. I remember he's only in his 30s. Although he's not the most famous batch among the new generation, he has solid basic skills."

He remembered that Meng Zhaolong was good at capturing the emotions of characters and using colors to set off. He had a bit of the feeling of Lao Mouzi when he was young, but it seemed to be more commercial than Lao Mouzi's movies.

It's just that Meng Zhaolong has never made a big investment, and has always been making small troubles. I don't know if he can handle big productions.

Not sure if this person can make a commercial masterpiece with a big investment.

"He is just unlucky. He can't get good scripts and big investment. He has been making some low-cost movies and TV series that are not popular. If he is lucky enough to come across a few good scripts and get investment, It may not be a hit. Is he willing to join?"

Duan Xiaochen smiled brightly: "It depends on you."

"Look at me?"

Duan Xiaochen nodded: "He is your fan."

"?" Du Caige raised his eyebrows, a little stunned, and a little dumbfounded.

"He is your book fan," Duan Xiaochen explained, "When I talked to him on the phone, he said that he ordered all your books, and he also bought all physical books."

"That's right."

"He is willing to join us. In principle, he is willing to sign a four-year, four-movie management contract, but he requires that one of them must be a Jade Dynasty movie, and he also wants to make a ghost blowing lantern. He can only choose one of them to shoot. .”

She stared at Du Caige with her beautiful eyes.

She knew that Du Caige actually wanted to direct Zhu Xian and Ghost Blowing Lantern himself.

Du Caige weighed it, nodded and said, "I have no problem here."

Du Caige really wanted to direct Zhu Xian and Ghost Blowing the Lantern himself.

But there are so many movies he wants to direct.

He also wants to direct Chinese Paladin.I also want to direct the Romance of the Dragon and Snake, and shoot the Guoshu Stream movie universe and the Honghuangliu movie universe.

I also want to remake The Matrix, Inception, The Three-Body Problem, and reinterpret such a classic science fiction movie from his perspective.

Isn't there a saying called "no science fiction, no director".

How can I have the energy to shoot every one?

So definitely let some out.

If this Meng Zhaolong is willing to sign a brokerage contract with the company, it would be a good idea to entrust Zhu Xian and Gui Chuideng to shoot.

"But the ugly thing is that first, he has to make two commercial films to prove himself. I don't ask for a high return on investment. If I can make a small profit, I will consider him qualified. It is not easy to create an i like Zhu Xian and Gui Chuandeng. Tophites."

"We will negotiate with him and write this into the contract." Ouyang Lihai said with a business-like attitude.

"In addition, we still have to find a way to recruit one or two big directors, and then recruit a few big companies to make big-budget movies. This is the fastest way to build up the company's reputation." Xu Liang suggested.

Signing contracts with emerging directors and producing a large number of low-cost films for these new directors to practice is more for future consideration, and also to build and exercise their own distribution system.

And big production is indeed the only way to establish the company's status.

There is nothing wrong with Xu Liang's statement.

This young man in his 30s looked at the two executive directors expectantly.

As an entertainment company focusing on content production.

Once the production is started, their creative and production department is definitely the most powerful department.

Especially if it starts to make a movie, a big production with an investment of [-] to [-] million yuan.

At that time, a large amount of funds will flow from their hands, and beauties and young students from all walks of life will come to pay homage to them.

Although they don't directly control the production crew, if Chasing Dream Huyu casts a large-scale production, it's okay for the director of the production department and the deputy director of film and television to name a producer, assistant producer, etc.

If you encounter a director with a softer personality, they can even justifiably intervene in casting, budget, prop purchase, hotel accommodation and other aspects.

Even if their hands and feet are clean and they don't make money from it, they can easily get their qualifications, get acquainted with big stars and big directors, and play a few small supporting roles by the way.

So everyone in the production department really hopes that the company can start a large-scale production immediately.

Du Caige pondered for a moment, and said, "You can contact us, but it's still the same sentence, don't force it. Big productions are actually a kind of commercial operation. In this regard, we can only be cautious and cross the river by feeling the stones."

"My personal opinion is to wait for Juzhi Investment to take the lead, join forces with Jiutian Media, Donglai Entertainment, etc. to invest, hire a big director, and make a big production."

"Of course, if there is a suitable opportunity, we can also take the lead in this matter."

Duan Xiaochen curled his lips, and a sly smile flashed in his eyes, "There is a suitable opportunity in front of you."

"what chance?"

"Shu Yihuan."

"Him?" Du Caige was a little surprised.

There are quite a few big directors who are branded.

But there are also some great directors who seem to be very independent since their debut.You can take a picture of this, and you can take a picture of that.

Because he has enough strength and confidence, he can live well without being attached to any big company.

Shu Yihuan is like this.

He has his own studio, and since his debut, he hasn't signed a brokerage contract with any big company.

This great director is good at action movies and martial arts movies. Du Caige and Liu Zifei went to the cinema to watch his movies.

Chapter 273 After the first day in Asia

Du Caige carefully pulled Shu Yihuan's video.

He felt that although Shu Yihuan hadn't made much progress in recent years, she hadn't obviously regressed either.

Judging from the movie released this year, although the quality of the movie has declined slightly compared to before, the box office is still very good.

The name Shu Yihuan can still afford the box office.

It is unlikely that you will lose money if you hire him to make a movie.

Du Caige let out a sigh of relief: "How much is his salary? Is there any other request? Does he need a share of the box office? Does he require funding to join the group? What requirements do he have for the male and female protagonists? Do he have to ask for the final cut? Talk to him Talk. If you can talk, I support it."

"I had a preliminary communication with him." Duan Xiaochen's eyes rolled around, full of charm.

However, even the blind people here can feel that her charm and sex appeal are only blooming for Du Caige.

So there will be no extra thoughts.

"Tell me."

"He demanded," Duan Xiaochen said as he snapped his fingers like water onions, "the right to make the final decision on important roles; the right to choose scripts; no investment is required, but a remuneration of 1500 million yuan, plus a total box office dividend of 1 yuan. Including the final cut Right or something, I haven’t talked to him yet.”

Du Caige exchanged glances with the other, "How is it, is it suitable?"

"I think it's okay. We can talk about it again, but I think his offer is quite sincere." Ouyang Lihai touched his chin with a little stubble.

He looked puzzled: "I'm just wondering, he has too many options to choose from. And our company has no experience in film and television production. Why did he agree to cooperate with us?"

Du Caige also felt that this was like a sudden rumor that Messi was going to join RB Leipzig.

Who is Messi?The top 2 in the world, one of the double prides, and the candidate for the world champion.

As for RB Leipzig, it has only been established for a few years and has just entered the top league.

Although there is capital support, but there is no background, the future is unclear, and it may take many years of ups and downs.

Why did Messi join them?
