Chapter 23 New Project
The rights to the two Silver Bears were sold at a satisfactory price. Cao Yang felt that this was a good first step.
Now all that's left is to arrange for the domestic release. There's no rush. We'll do the math when we return home.
Cao Yang almost forgot that he also had a garbage system. Let's see how much reputation can be increased with the blessing of two silver bears.
Host: Cao Yang
Current reputation: 350627
Available reputation: 350627
Entering the theater experience: +0
Film preparation: None
Somewhat disappointed, Cao Yang thought he could increase his reputation by several million, but he didn't expect it to only increase by 340,000. Why three hundred and forty thousand? How much does a silver bear increase? One hundred thousand or one hundred and fifty thousand?
Domestic Jinji, Xiangjiang’s Golden Elephant, and Wanwan’s Golden Ant, how much more can you get if you get them? I guess it should be less than the top three in Europe.
There's no explanation, I can't figure it out.
Forget it, it would be great if it can be increased. One hundred thousand can change the movie experience once. The current data can be changed three times. The acting skills of the protagonist of the next movie are already established.
The trip to Berlin ended successfully and I returned home.
Before leaving, Li Xiaoran's manager, Sister Zhang, came to Cao Yang specifically and said that considering that Xiaoran won the Berlin Best Actress Award, which could be regarded as bringing glory to the country, she could not return to the country quietly, she had to show off... No, I always knew that she would go to the media. , find some hot news for people.
It was said very modestly and tactfully.
Cao Yang could also understand that the former unknown supporting actor suddenly became the only Berlin Best Actress in the Mainland. He would definitely find the media to cooperate and vigorously promote her to make her famous and rise to the top.
The media is also happy with this. You want hot spots, print media wants sales, and the website wants traffic. We all cooperate and win.
Sister Zhang's so-called notification to the media must have been to greet all media in advance. She was surrounded by the media as soon as she got off the plane at the airport, taking photos and interviews.
Otherwise, do you think that so many media outlets are so busy waiting for you at the airport?
Some celebrities say they are shocked as soon as they get off the plane, and countless media take photos and interview them. Haha, this is just overthinking.
Cao Yang originally had no intention of informing the media, but since Sister Zhang proposed it, it didn't matter. It just happened to create a wave of enthusiasm and it was treated as a warm-up for the release of the movie.
Now is the worst time for the domestic market. In literary terms, it is the darkest moment of the movie, the darkness before dawn.
If you don’t warm up the movie and create some buzz, it won’t be good if the movie does poorly at the box office.
Of course, the most important thing is to see how much prestige will increase after the movie is released - you can't only increase your prestige by winning awards, right?
After getting off the plane, many media reporters came. When they saw Cao Yang and the others, they did not gather around them in an exaggerated manner. They just set up their formations and prepared for interviews.
Cao Yang was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.
Most of the media today are still based on print media. These are serious reporters, many of whom are well-organized. They are not unscrupulous paparazzi. They are still somewhat reserved.
There were not only reporters from print media and portal websites, but also people from Jingshi TV Station. Cameras had been set up over there. Are you planning to go on TV?
Are the two Silver Bears so good?
"Hello, Director Cao, I am a reporter from Jingshi TV Station. First of all, congratulations on winning two Silver Bears. Can you tell me how you feel now?"
Uh, such an old interview phrase. Isn't this what I should have been asked when I just received the award and then came out to be interviewed by reporters?
Well, the domestic media did not go to the scene, and it was the first time I was interviewed when I came back.
The Jingshi TV station is very prestigious. The cameraman over there was recording, but the microphone here was directly talking to him, and reporters from other media had no objection.
"I'm very excited. This is my student's practical film. Because it is an assignment, the funds and time are limited, so I didn't polish it carefully, and the filming was a bit rough. I didn't expect to win the award. Thank you Nortel for the training. Next time We must work hard to make better movies.”
Look, who doesn’t know how to create hot spots? Who doesn’t know how to tell a cliche? Who doesn’t know how to flatter someone? I just did my homework and took two silver bears in a random shot. Aren't you interested in taking a look?
By the way, I have put out another round of advertisements for Nortel, so I would like to ask the leaders of Nortel, are you moved?
"First of all, congratulations to Xiaoran for winning the Berlin Best Actress. As a domestic..."
……
After being interviewed for about half an hour, the task was completed and everyone went their separate ways at the airport.
Sister Zhang was so happy that the company sent a car to pick her up and Li Xiaoran. It was expected that a press conference would be held when they returned to the company. Sister Zhang enthusiastically wanted to send Cao Yang off first, but Cao Yang refused.
Li Xiaoran made a phone call gesture and got into the company's car to pick her up.
Nortel also had a car here, and it was sent in the name of Qingying Film Studio. Cao Yang asked the driver to take him to a rented community near Nortel.
After a day's rest, he returned to school the next day and went to see Lao Situ first. Without a few words of greeting, he was taken away to a meeting by Hou Keming who came after hearing the news.
It was said to be a meeting, but in fact it was just a few leaders meeting Cao Yang together to express their serious attitude.
First, several people praised Cao Yang in different ways, and then they discussed which film festivals the film should apply for. The school was very persistent and concerned about this.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
On the contrary, they are not very enthusiastic about the release of the movie. Several leaders are very casual, so you can do whatever you want, but don't bother us with this kind of thing.
How many bosses does the school still get a 10% dividend from the domestic box office? Why don't you care at all? This is an award-winning film from Berlin. It comes with its own promotion and the box office cannot be too low. It’s all about money.
The meeting was over and everyone was about to leave. Hou Keming asked casually, "Cao Yang, do you have any ideas for the next movie?"
There is nothing to hide, Cao Yang is not planning to leave the school and go it alone, whether it is a literary film or not, everyone will benefit from cooperation.
"I have some ideas."
There was a crash, and the big man who was at the front and opened the door immediately stopped, closed the door, and came back.
Several people sat down and looked at Cao Yang with burning eyes, waiting for him to continue.
You see, when I mentioned the release of the movie, everyone was indifferent; when I mentioned that I had some ideas, everyone became energetic.
"During the Chinese New Year, I had a preliminary idea, but it was not yet mature. After careful consideration during this period, I finally perfected the idea. Taking advantage of my free time at the Berlin Film Festival, the first draft of the script was completed."
Hou Keming looked surprised and asked: "Have you finished the script?"
"First draft, first draft."
Several big shots looked at each other, and finally Xie Xiaojing, director of the directing department, came forward and asked: "Cao Yang, how do you plan to shoot? What help can the school provide you?"
Following Xie Xiaojing's words, all the big guys looked at Cao Yang.
With Cao Yang's current reputation, it would be easy to let the outside world know whether it is investment, personnel, equipment...
The school was really afraid that Cao Yang would leave the school and go it alone.
"Hey, isn't the school ready to cooperate with me? I, Cao Yang, think about the school all the time. I even advertised the school in Berlin. Even when I was being interviewed at the airport, I mentioned the school's name."< br>
Cao Yang joked with a smile.
The big bosses all breathed a sigh of relief. Hou Keming waved his hand and stated firmly, "Cooperation is easy to negotiate. Personnel, equipment, film, props... and even funds can be discussed!
