After the three of them returned to the studio, Zhou Yanxian asked Xiao Can to arrange several offices for the crew. Now, whenever their studio shoots a new movie, they will arrange additional offices for the crew.
Afterwards, he returned to his office and called Xu Feng and told her about Xiao Can's new movie.
After hearing this, Xu Feng did not hesitate at all and said readily, "Just do what you want. I will explain it to the company later. Although Director Xiao has not been with you the longest, , but he worked hard in the first two movies, so we can’t treat him badly.”
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "The main reason is that I think his script is pretty good, otherwise, I wouldn't have contributed to it."
Although Zhou Yan is very willing to support people around him, he won't To help without any bottom line, Zhou Yan must give him a platform only if the other party has certain talents.
It stands to reason that after all these years, the person Zhou Yan should support the most now is Li Hong, because Li Hong has been following Zhou Yan since his first feature film, and he is a real veteran.
But Zhou Yan has not let him take charge of his own role until now. Just because Li Hong does not have the talent to direct a movie independently, he is still more suitable to assist others.
Of course, Zhou Yan did not treat Li Hong badly. In the entire film studio, Li Hong's treatment was the first, and he was also the deputy director of the directing department. His development was not as bad as that of the other directors. It was just The direction is just different.
Of course Zhou Yan’s future plan for Li Hong cannot be just an assistant director, or the director of the directing department.
In Zhou Yan’s plan, Li Hong will eventually become a producer.
Although Li Hong is not suitable to be a chief director, he definitely has the potential to be a producer, and he is also suitable to cooperate with directors who have artistic talents but no management talents.
There are many directors like this who are talented and have ideas, but making a movie is not just about having ideas and artistic talent.
Just like Chen Kaige, no one can deny that Chen Kaige is a talented director, but he always fails to produce good works because he lacks someone who can help him solve problems and correct his course. Producer.
Of course, it’s not that Chen Kaige can’t find such a producer, it’s that he is too distracted now and can’t listen to anyone else’s words.
"I also went to Yanjing Film Academy to study with Chinese Opera today and saw a lot of good talents. Are you interested in signing them?" Zhou Yan said again about going to school today.
Xu Feng smiled and said, "We'd better not do anything about signing new people. Mainly, we don't have the energy to do these things. At this stage, our company still has to focus on you and the band. Oh, by the way. , and Akina Nakamori, if we sign more, we will be too busy."
Zhou Yan nodded, this is indeed Xu Feng's consistent line.
Originally, Tomson did not develop artist business or music business. Xu Feng opened these two sections for Zhou Yan. At first, these two sections only served Zhou Yan alone. .
It’s just that Xu Feng didn’t expect that Zhou Yan would develop so well. Now a large part of their company’s income comes from music.
At first, Zhou Yan was mainly the one making money, but now there is Akina Nakamori.
Nakamori Akina became famous in Neon due to "Snow Flower", and now her business is developing very well, and she has gradually begun to bring objective profits to Tomson.
"Since Sister Feng, you are not interested, then I will ask my brother to pay attention."
"This is too troublesome for you, why not just sign people into your own studio. If you sign in Zhou's Entertainment, these students are in Yanjing, and they still have to come to your studio for specific business. Why do they need this extra process? ”
“My studio doesn’t have an artist department yet.”
“Then just build one. It’s not a troublesome thing. Besides, you can do school-enterprise cooperation with Central Audio, so why not How about they engage in school-enterprise cooperation? Establish an artist development department, and then engage in school-enterprise cooperation with these schools and bring students to your studio in advance.”
Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows. Xu Feng really opened his mind. He could indeed consider a school-enterprise cooperation with China National Theater. After all, he had the conditions.
Moreover, if the school-enterprise offices of Yanjing Film Academy, China Theater Academy, and Central Academy of Music are all brought together, a complete film industry chain can basically be formed.
Zhou Yan provides them with a platform in the middle, allowing students to get in touch with the project as soon as possible and grow rapidly.
"Sister Feng, what you said really makes sense. We can indeed establish a school-enterprise cooperation with them."
"Well, you are the only one who has this condition at this stage. But this thing , the main thing is to cultivate talents. It is not easy to make money on your own. I am afraid that after the talents are cultivated, they will go to other people’s homes.”
"It doesn't matter, even if I run away, I won't lose anything." Zhou Yan said with a smile.
"Of course you won't lose much money, it just consumes energy. So I say, you are the only one who can do this. You have money, ideas, equipment, and reputation. It is impossible for anyone else to do it."< br>
"It's not that exaggerated. If anyone really wants to do it, it can definitely be done."
"The price is much higher than yours."
"That's true. ”
"Okay, I will arrange Director Xiao's affairs. Is there anything else?"
"No."
"That's it, wait until I have "Time and Space" I’ll let you know when the new box office data for “Love Traveler” comes out.”
“Okay.”
……
After hanging up Xu Feng's phone, Zhou Yan got up and prepared to go to the cafeteria to eat, but as soon as he got up, Liu Hang knocked on his office door.
Seeing Liu Hang, Zhou Yan smiled and said, "You came just in time. Let me tell you two things. The first thing is that Director Xiao Canxiao is planning to make a new movie. I have already asked someone to tell you. He has arranged an office. If he needs anything else, you can try your best to cooperate."
"Well, I just heard about it. Don't worry, boss, I'm willing to do it. I will definitely treat Director Xiao like a director in our studio and fully cooperate with him.”
“I’m at ease with your work.” Zhou Yan nodded and said, “The second thing is. There will be a group of teachers and students coming to our school tomorrow. Please make arrangements.”
“How many people will there be?”
"There are four or five teachers, and the number of students is estimated to be fifty to eighty."
"Come in the morning?"
"Come in the afternoon, you don't have to prepare lunch, just prepare dinner. "
"Okay, I understand. I'll make arrangements soon."
"Well, why did you come to see me?"
"I came here mainly to ask about Director Xiao's new movie. In addition, the school-enterprise cooperation office has been decided and placed in Building 4. The room has been simply renovated. Boss, do you want to go and take a look? ”
“Forget it today , I’ll go and see it tomorrow. Just as you mentioned this, let me tell you that there may be other school-enterprise cooperation projects in the future, so you can arrange for two more offices in advance.”
"Are you cooperating with China Theater Company?" Liu Hang asked.
Tomorrow the Chinese Opera will come to visit the studio. Zhou Yan said at this time that he would increase school-enterprise cooperation projects. Liu Hang naturally thought that this new school-enterprise cooperation project was a cooperation with the Chinese Opera.
"It's possible, but it's not certain yet. Just be prepared."
"Understood."
"Is there anything else?"
"There is nothing else to do... Did you know that Ms. Nakamori came to the studio?"
< br>Zhou Yan asked unexpectedly, "Today?"
"I came yesterday."
"What is she here for?"
"There seems to be some event tomorrow. I have been here mainly to practice singing these two days. I thought you knew about it, boss."
Liu Hang It’s normal to think so Yes, Nakamori Akina and Kudo Shizuka have a very good relationship, Zhou Yan also has a very good relationship with Kudo Shizuka, and Zhou Yan also wrote a popular song for Nakamori Akina, so he takes it for granted that Zhou Yan and Nakamori Akina have a good personal relationship.
Since Akina Nakamori has come to Yanjing, it stands to reason that Zhou Yan should know about it. But after Akina Nakamori arrived yesterday, Zhou Yan didn't move in the office, and even ran out today. Liu Hang knew that Zhou Yan probably didn't know about this.
"Did she never leave, or did she come to Yanjing again?"
Before the Zuo Dai meeting, Akina Nakamori came to the studio. Zhou Yan even went to see her at that time, but he never saw her again. I don’t know if she left or not.
"Leave, come again."
Zhou Yan nodded, thinking about it, it was right. If Nakamori Akina had not left, then she should have been there during the premiere of "Space Traveler" Will also participate.
……
After dinner, Zhou Yan went to practice room No. 2.
Nakamori Akina was practicing her voice alone in the practice room. When Zhou Yan opened the door and walked in, she was practicing her high notes. When she saw Zhou Yan, her voice stopped suddenly.
Zhou Yan smiled and said: "Sorry, I disturbed your voice practice."
"No, I was ready to finish it." Akina Nakamori said.
Zhou Yan was a little surprised. Less than twenty days had passed since the last time they met, and Nakamori Akina's Chinese had improved again.
She speaks more fluently now than the last time we met.
Sure enough, if I come to China often, my language proficiency will improve quickly.
"You are still alone, where is Ida Nariko?"
"She has gone back first, I asked her to pick me up in the evening."
"Don't make it worse Too late and it will be unsafe.”
"Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome. We treat you as your own home here. If you need anything, just ask."
"Everything is very good. I don't have anything else to say." "
Zhou Yan nodded, "Okay, I won't disturb you anymore."
After saying that, Zhou Yan smiled and turned around.
...
When Zhou Yan stayed in the office until half past eight, there was a knock on the office door.
"Please come in."
The door was pushed open and Akina Nakamori stood at the door.
Seeing that it was Akina Nakamori, Zhou Yan was a little surprised, "Miss Nakamori, what can I do for you?"
Akina Nakamori pursed her lips and looked very embarrassed, "Teacher Zhou, could you please find someone to take me back? Nariko's car had a problem halfway."
"What went wrong? I need help. ”
“No need to help, she has already found someone to help her tow the truck. She said she would come back after towing it, but I still asked her to deal with the car first."
Zhou Yan nodded, "No problem, I'll take you back."
Akina Nakamori said quickly, "You don't have to give it to me personally, just find someone to give it to me."
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "At this point, the drivers are off work, and I am the only one who can take you off."
"Then... I'm sorry to trouble you."
"I've already told you. , You're welcome."
Zhou Yan took the key, put on his clothes and walked out with Nakamori Akina, "Are you still staying at the Xufeng Hotel?"
"Well, you are still living there. .”
"That's not far."
As they spoke, the two walked out of the door.
Just as a cold wind blew by, Nakamori Akina suddenly hugged her arms and shivered.
Zhou Yan then noticed that she was only wearing a thin coat on her upper body and a woolen dress underneath. The hem of the skirt just reached her knees, and she was bare underneath.
Zhou Yan felt cold looking at her outfit.
"Let's go quickly."
Fortunately, the car parked not far away, and it was just a few steps away.
Entering the car, although there was no wind, the seats were cold. Zhou Yan obviously shivered when he saw Akina Nakamori sitting down.
Zhou Yan rolled his eyes, lit the fire first, then took off his coat and covered it on Nakamori Akina's legs.
After covering it, he stuffed the edge inside and placed it under Akina Nakamori's legs.
This series of actions by Zhou Yan made Nakamori Akina panic. She originally wanted to refuse, but she swallowed the words of rejection as soon as they came to her lips.
The coat still carried Zhou Yan's body temperature and was wrapped around her legs. It immediately isolated her from the cold seat and made her feel warmer.
Just thinking that the warmth on the coat came from Zhou Yan, Nakamori Akina felt a little strange in her heart. She also thought of that night when Zhou Yan hugged her from behind.
Although the temperature in the car did not rise, Nakamori Akina's face was already red.
Zhou Yan did not rush to start, but waited until the car was a little warm before taking out the meal.
The distance from the studio to Xufeng Hotel is very close and it arrived quickly.
After the car arrived at the entrance of the hotel, Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Ms. Nakamori, here we are."
Nakamori Akina, who was in a daze, came back to her senses and quickly picked up the coat covering her legs. , to be handed over to Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan smiled and waved his hand, "Put it on first and give it to me when you get inside."
Nakamori Akina still didn't refuse this time, nodded gently, and got off with her clothes in her arms. car.
Zhou Yan accompanied Nakamori Akina to the door of the hotel lobby, and was about to ask her for some clothes, and then went back. Suddenly Nakamori Akina said, "Want to go up and sit for a while?"
After she said this, not only Zhou Yan was stunned , she herself was stunned.
Nakamori Akina didn't know why she suddenly said such words. Inviting a man to her room on such a night would easily give rise to bad associations.
I just want to thank him for sending me back, and I have no other intention. He will definitely not think too much about it, Nakamori Akina tried to convince herself.
Zhou Yan couldn't figure out what Nakamori Akina was thinking. This woman was hiding from him before, so why did she suddenly say such a thing now?
Just as the two fell into silence, a firework exploded in the air, and the light it emitted illuminated their faces.
Zhou Yan did not look up, but he had already seen the shape of fireworks, because fireworks also bloomed in Nakamori Akina's eyes. (End of this chapter)
