The world of Chinese style creates a prosperous era for girl groups
Chapter 786 Choose a movie based on its name
Xia Haoyang invited all the CEOs and representatives into the conference room to start today's blind box drawing.
Representatives from five companies sat in one direction of the conference room. Xia Haoyang stood opposite them, and Zhao Yishen sat in the corner on Xia Haoyang's side with a smile.
Xia Haoyang put six script outlines in a sealed bag and placed them in front of everyone: "The first ones we gave you were all suspense films. Today we are preparing a romance film. It will not be in time for Valentine's Day this year, but if you can shoot and produce it quickly." Xia Haoyang glanced at the representative of Xiangjiang Anyi Gang and smiled and said, "314 White Valentine's Day, 520 Anniversary, Chinese Valentine's Day, or any other day can be released."
The delegates were also experienced people who understood Xia Haoyang's meaning and smiled. As long as the movie was good, the release date was not important. A good romance movie would be full even if it was released on Singles' Day.
"I have prepared six romance films this time. It's still the same old rules. You can choose whatever you want. If you choose one, you can take it directly. If you don't choose one, I have prepared an extra one for you to exchange. Anyway, the remaining one is shot by my own company. But what's different from last time is that last time it was sealed and everyone chose randomly. This time I have written the movie titles on them, so you can choose according to your favorite movie titles." Xia Haoyang was full of confidence.
"This is interesting, better than the last time when I was just guessing."
The representatives looked at each other and nodded. Xia Haoyang's approach was a kind of confidence in the scripts he created. I wrote six, and I will shoot the remaining ones you choose. Even if it is the remaining ones you choose, I can still make money. As for revealing the name of the movie, no one can guess the specific content of the movie based on the name of the movie. This is just a small gimmick in selecting scripts.
Director Zhang of Friendship Brothers Film and Television spoke up: "I have full confidence in President Xia's script. I believe that everyone here should have no doubt about President Xia's ability to write scripts. I have watched the movies shot by various companies this time. To be honest, every script is great. If any of these scripts does not make money but loses money, it is definitely a problem for us directors, or a problem with investment, improper casting, or improper publicity. It is definitely not the fault of the script. In fact, just pick any one."
"Director Zhang is right. Based on our last collaboration, we can tell that the scripts written by President Xia are impeccable. We can pick any one of them." Others echoed.
Everyone's words also satisfied Xia Haoyang's vanity, "In that case, the scripts are here, everyone can do whatever they want." Xia Haoyang spread his hands, stood up again, and looked at everyone with a smile.
"Mr. Dong, you are the oldest, so you go first and choose." Although Mr. Ke looked eager to try, he still gave the first chance to extend his hand to Mr. Dong, the oldest president of Dana Bona.
"Then I'll be disrespectful. Let me see what the title of the film is." Mr. Dong didn't stand up, but stretched out his hand to hold several sealed bags in front of him. "On the Road of Love"? Well, the name sounds like a pure love movie. "Rebirth"? (That is, "Bollywood Legend") It feels like a tragedy. "Request in the Rain"? It also seems like a tragedy. "Introduction to Architecture"? Is this a love movie? "If Love Has Destiny"? This feels like a tragedy, too, the kind that makes people cry. "My Sassy Girl"? This one is interesting."
President Dong placed "Introduction to Architecture" and "My Sassy Girl" in front of him, seemed a little hesitant, and then glanced at Xia Haoyang's expression. "President Xia, which one do you think is suitable for me?"
"Mr. Dong, these six works were all written by me, which are equivalent to my six children. How can I answer your question? As I said just now, I will shoot the ones you leave behind." Xia Haoyang said with a smile.
"Since President Xia said so, I'll take this 'Introduction to Architecture'. President Xia said it is a romance film, so I want to see what the 'Introduction to Architecture' has to do with romance films." After saying that, President Dong opened the sealed bag and began to study the script outline with the accompanying director.
The second choice is Mr. Ke of Qianda Cinemas. As of March 2024, 3, there are 31 Qianda Cinemas across the country.
This data reflects the number of directly-operated cinemas in China by Qianda Films, demonstrating its leading position and influence in the film industry. Qianda Films aims to expand its market share and further enhance its position in the industry by continuously improving single-screen output and building new directly-operated cinemas.
"Then I will choose 'My Sassy Girl', the one that President Dong doesn't want." President Ke chose another script that President Dong had in his hand at the beginning for comparison.
After the remaining three companies pushed each other around for a while, the director of Yidaguang Media chose "A Moment to Be Destined" and Director Zhang of Friendship Brothers chose "Request in the Rain".
The director of a film company in Hong Kong Anyi Gang spoke up: "Hong Kong has made "Half a Lifelong Romance" before. "Half a Lifelong Romance" and "Rebirth of the Romance" seem to be similar in name. I wonder if Mr. Xia's comments are related to that film. So I'm going to compete with Director Xu Ann Hua, and I'll choose "On the Road of Love."
Xia Haoyang took the last script, "Bollywood Legend" or "Half Life", in his hands and said, "Take a look at the plot outline. If you have any questions, you can ask me at any time. If you are not satisfied with the script in your hand, I have another one that you can exchange with."
"This script is good and interesting. President Xia also provided the theme song and even the interludes. I was so moved that I couldn't say anything. I decided to shoot "My Sassy Girl." President Ke was the first to express his opinion.
"Mr. Xia's script is good. Once filmed well, it will be able to win awards. Mr. Xia also carefully wrote the protagonist's biography, personality traits, and casting requirements. Thank you very much. We will strive to make this "Introduction to Architecture" well, and we will also take seriously the precautions mentioned by Mr. Xia in the script." After a brief discussion with the director, Mr. Dong was also satisfied with the script.
Xia Haoyang also smiled and nodded.
"If this film doesn't win an award, I will never make a movie again! And this music is so beautiful, is it your original creation, Mr. Xia?" The director of Yidaguang Media was very excited.
Everyone else in the room was startled by the sudden loud shout of Director Yiguang, and they all looked at the script he was holding. It turned out to be "If Love Has Destiny", which is a warm and touching plot, so it seems not surprising that it won an award. For each film and television company, the first thing to do when shooting a script is to make money, and the second is to make money. As for winning an award? That is the cherry on the cake. It would be best if it could win an award, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't. The most important thing is that the film does not lose money.
Xia Haoyang didn't say much, just smiled slightly.
