Chapter 194 Dual departments jointly invest 500 million! Ambitious: I want to create my own animation IP!
Wang Zhongjun is not without a temper.
They all came from the compound. Before I became President Wang, they were always quarreling with each other.
I did make a wrong choice before, because the conflict between Chen Kaige and Su Yi at that time made Wang Zhongjun think that Chen Kaige wanted Su Yi to bow his head.
Just give this young man a beating.
Unexpectedly, the young man did not succeed in the beating, but instead suffered a cerebral hemorrhage.
Then it was like cheating all the way.
To actually reach this status.
Wang Zhongjun knew that the rabbit’s enthusiasm would definitely bring about the heat of the border war.
As an entertainment media company, you must make money.
Although Feng Xiaogang's movies don't lose money, they don't make much profit either.
This made Wang Zhongjun a little anxious.
He even asked Zheng Xiaolong for Su Yi’s phone number.
Originally Zheng Xiaolong didn’t want to give it, but he couldn’t stand Wang Zhongjun’s insistence.
After all, Zheng Xiaolong owed him a favor.
Wang Zhongjun also said that we are talking about cooperation.
But unexpectedly, it was a disappointment.
Su Yi said this and hung up the phone.
"Mr. Wang, what should I do?"
Seeing the scene was a little embarrassing, several subordinates asked in a low voice.
"What should I do? Without Su Yi, the movie will not be shot? Call Director Chen!"
Mr. Wang snorted slightly, feeling a little unhappy.
Although Chen Kaige is not very cost-effective, he is still a famous director.
Parasite wins the Oscar, but there’s no movement at Cannes yet.
Farewell My Concubine still has a dominant position.
Chen Kaige's status is still second only to Zhang Yimou.
In fact, without Su Yi, the box office of Chen Kaige's The Promise would not have been much higher. Han Sanping insisted that he did not lose money.
However, it has always been favored by investors. All the movies it shoots are large-scale productions, with almost all stars.
The box office is getting worse and worse, but I have still been able to do well, and I even claim to be the leader of the fifth generation of directors.
The more this happens, the greater the fame.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Chen Kaige is not finished now, but just a little depressed.
No matter what, the box office of Promise still exceeded 100 million, and it was even nominated for an Oscar.
He also went to the last Oscars.
It's the best costume design, which is a bit ironic.
“This time I invested 300 million to shoot a movie about overseas wars! Chen Kaige directed it, and our artists participated. I don’t believe it. I found a good script, and he is still missing a director! ”
Wang Zhongjun was also encouraging himself and was keenly aware of the business opportunities.
·····
CCTV.
“So many leaders?”
Su Yi greeted one by one.
People from Bayi Factory and the education department?
"Director Su, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Director Hu smiled.
Lao Luo was a little surprised when he saw this scene, but he also knew that it had nothing to do with the documentary.
Lao Luo said hello to everyone and returned to his department.
"They all came because they wanted to invite director Su Yi to shoot a movie."
Su Yi had a headache.
Let the bullets fly and become a hands-off shopkeeper.
I also need to prepare to go to the United States to discuss copyright matters.
The documentary is also in progress, and there are many calls from other projects coming in every day.
For example, stories about the growth of cute pets, traveling with books, etc.
Everything is being filmed, and it is expected to start a blowout in the middle of the year.
Looking for me at this time, I am really overwhelmed.
"Director Su, I know you are very busy recently. There is no rush in this matter. The preparation of a war movie still takes a long time, but our leaders are also determined. The effect of the soldiers' assault is very good , the recruitment work went very smoothly, and now that the rabbit has inspired me, I think the soldiers want to watch a movie about overseas wars even more - although the cartoon is very touching, the content shown is still very limited."
This makes sense.
Director Zhang’s words were also very sincere.
"Those who are capable work hard. The leaders of our education department have already said hello to the leaders of the propaganda department and the General Administration. Of course, Director Su still needs to agree."
Director Zhou Looking at Su Yi, there was admiration in his eyes.
No one could have imagined that a small cartoon could trigger so many chain reactions.
Who would have thought that the most expensive figure of Natu costs tens of thousands.
It will definitely become more expensive as time goes by.
"Yes, Director Su. You can prepare the script first when you are not busy. The rest is easy to talk about."
Director Hu also knows that this is a political mission. .
Let the Bullets Fly was a favor to Jiang Wen, and it also dealt with the sky-high actor fees.
Documentary is Su Yi’s personal ‘ambition’.
But after the rabbit appeared in advance, in addition to being loved by people of different ages, it was also valued by various departments.
Capital TV has launched interviews with veterans. In addition to some basic investment by the program team, all the remaining advertising fees are used to improve the lives of veterans.
The ratings of this show are not low either.
In the latest program of "Waiting for Me", we also need to help several veterans find their old comrades.
The main theme is that war, and the corresponding TV series are applying for filming.
However, this time the requirements have been raised a lot, and there cannot be a situation like an anti-Japanese drama.
Respect history and the real situation.
Movies should be established as a project.
Businessmen with keen awareness immediately want to invest in movies. Even if they are rejected by Su Yi, they will still shoot!
“We are here today to discuss, not to put pressure on you. We have cooperated with each other before, and we hope to create greater glory! It also allows people to understand the battle more intuitively. Hardship! ”
Su Yi sighed.
It’s not that I don’t have a script in my head, it’s just that there are a lot of things going on right now.
"I have to finish the documentary work, so I might prepare the script. It's easy to say."
Su Yi smiled.
Director Zhou and Director Zhang’s eyes lit up.
I knew that Su Yi must have a solution!
“Now that our two departments invest together, many things can be solved!”
This time it was not in vain, and everyone is happy.
With Director Su Yi in charge, they feel at ease.
“The producer and director are all you. Don’t have any psychological pressure, we trust you!”
"We know that war movies must require a lot of investment! Our August 1st Film investment is 300 million, and we also have extra support!"
"Our education department has 200 million funds."
< br>What a big deal!
Su Yi's heart moved.
“I will try to put it on the schedule.”
An investment of 500 million is not small.
This is 2006!
"I'm really looking forward to this movie now. Su Yi, please go and say hello to the National Film Bureau and China Film Group!"
Director Hu was shocked in his heart, but on the surface But remained calm.
With this investment and Su Yi’s guidance, what kind of glory will it have?
······
Su family.
"Son, are you so busy during this time? Can't you take a break after the Spring Festival Gala?"
Mother Su looked at Su Yi with some distress.
“You don’t understand. My son is currently in his promotion period. It’s good to be tired. Those directors who have nothing to do only get angry!”
Su's father said nonchalantly.
"That's right. They say boys look like mothers. This is because they have inherited my talents! Everyone in the work unit, whether they know each other or not, are all praising me. It makes me feel a little embarrassed. Even if it's a fight in the cafeteria You guys, give me two more spoons! Why is your Su Yi so good and able to produce so many good works?”
Mother Su’s face showed pride when she mentioned this.
"Yes, yes, they all look like you - but I'm talking about my son, haven't you thought about personal issues?"
In this entertainment industry, there are a lot of beauties.
It is no exaggeration to say that there are too many people with good figures, sweet looks, and personalities.
But how sincere the feelings are, he can feel that Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi should like him.
When they were planning to film Soldier Assault, both of them invested in it. At that time, they were only slightly famous.
There are no such popular works later.
So there was unconditional trust at that time, especially since Liu Shishi’s family was not very wealthy at that time, so they tried their best.
Su Yi still remembers this favor. Later, after Natu became popular, Su Yi sold some peripheral copyrights to Liu Shishi's father at a low price.
“I’m busy every day, but I haven’t met anyone who is suitable.”
“Actually, Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi are both good. Although they are both actors, you are the director. Ah, who dares to take advantage of them?"
Su Yi smiled helplessly, he was not in a hurry.
Both girls are now 18 years old.
"My son is so busy, don't put pressure on him. There are many good girls, so take your time and meet them. Maybe there will be a suitable one. Are you going to Shanghai this time?"
Father Su thought. Yes, with his son's current conditions, he can pick a good girl at will.
"Would you like to come with me? Just think of it as a trip."
Su Yi suddenly said that he had made money, but he hadn't led the old couple around yet.
He merged with the memory and took over this body. These are his biological parents.
"No need, we haven't retired yet and have our lives, but you should be careful when you go there. You have shot so many documentaries and advertisements before, and you have offended a lot of people."< br>
Su Yi nodded indifferently. Those who might have done something dirty had basically gone in, and the human traffickers were like rats crossing the street.
With my current status within the system, basically I’ll be fine if I don’t cause trouble.
"Brother! I caught you today!"
Xiaoxuan and Xiaoyi followed their parents into the yard.
After the Spring Festival, grandma and grandpa went back to their home.
Both girls are studying, and they haven’t been here for a long time.
"Haha, if I had come a little later, I might have left."
Su Yi smiled dotingly, in the era of only children, this was her biological sister.
"Hmph, you promised me last time that you would give us a complete set of rabbit dolls!"
"Don't talk nonsense, this complete set of dolls is quite expensive. And your brother Su Yi is now the director of CCTV Come on, you can’t accept gifts casually. I’ve already made a reservation for you, but you’ll have to arrive later.”
The second uncle said hurriedly from behind.
Su Yi is about to go on a business trip, and he doesn’t know when he will come back, so he naturally has to see him off.
“Don’t tell me, this doll is really expensive and popular! Don’t tell me, look at this capital city, there are usually so many people squeezing the buses, I didn’t expect the rich people to be more So many!”
The third uncle came over with a smile.
"This doll is expensive, isn't it the rabbit directed by Xiao Yi? When I wanted to buy it, it was basically gone."
The second aunt was carrying fruit.
"Look at you, a junior is going on a business trip for a few days and he bought something specially."
Mother Su hurriedly took it over. The family had a good relationship. Now that Su Yi has become successful, they Even more interested in making friends.
In fact, I didn't come here to take advantage. Now everyone knows that Su Yi is doing charity, and even though they are relatives, it is the money Su Yi earns, and it has nothing to do with them. They just think it will be face-saving to tell them, that's all.
“Oh, we also hope that Director Su can shoot a more classic work! I heard that this time it is a documentary?”
“Well, although it is a documentary, but It’s almost like a movie. The picture is more sophisticated, and there will be many guest appearances by celebrities.”
Seeing that the adults changed the topic, the two children stopped entangled. That is, acting coquettishly with my brother.
Not really blaming.
"Are there any celebrities? I haven't met a few of them yet. Brother, everyone in our class thinks you and Liu Yifei are a good match! But I do think you and Liu Shishi are a couple!"
These kids
But this is normal, because kids nowadays are also starting to chase stars.
This time I surpassed all idols and powerful stars, and directly topped the rankings.
From the Spring Festival Gala until now, it seems to have been popular.
"Cough"
While we were chatting, a girl outside blushed.
She struggled to carry several large plastic bags, which were filled with exquisite dolls.
Those puppets have different shapes, and they are the latest version of Natu figurines.
Originally I wanted to go in, but after hearing what Xiaoxuan said, I was a little embarrassed to go in.
Her face turned red with embarrassment. The girl who came had a slender figure, a good temperament, and dignified facial features.
“Are there guests?”
The third uncle looked at it.
“Oh, isn’t this...Gao Qilan!”
He forgot Liu Shishi’s name, after all, there are still very few masterpieces.
"Shi Shi? Are you here? Why did you bring it in by yourself?"
Su Yi was a little surprised when he saw Liu Shishi.
But I just happened to be looking for her.
"Don't listen to the nonsense of children - is this all?"
Although Liu Shishi has not graduated from college yet, he has participated in many film crews, and he has seen it. The world quickly returned to normal.
"The man at the door was very responsible and didn't let the driver in. But it doesn't matter. They look like many dolls, but they are actually just dolls."
Liu Shishi was dressed appropriately today, a light-colored coat with a tall boy underneath. He wears a small shirt with a collar, his hair tied back, and his slender figure looks curvy. In several of Su Yi's works, there have been a lot of changes to some clothes. They are basically the aesthetics of 2023, and they have quickly won the favor of many stars. favorite.
“Ouch! I finally saw a star!”
Xiaoxuan and Xiaoyi came over happily.
"Wow! Sister Shi Shi! You are so beautiful!"
Liu Shishi smiled, having heard a lot of such compliments.
"You are also very cute——"
Being in Su Yi's house, we are basically relatives, but we don't know the specific identities of this group of people.
“These are all donations from my relatives, is this?”
“My dad’s thoughts are all worthless - but they should be out of print in the future and will not be available in the market. Produced.”
After Su Yi's introduction, Liu Shishi greeted everyone and then entered the room.
Xiaoxuan and Xiaoyi were a little reserved at first, but then they couldn't hold it back anymore and started taking photos with Liu Shishi.
Liu Shishi also knew about their relationship with Su Yi and never showed any impatience, taking various selfies with the two children.
“Look at other celebrities, they are prettier than ordinary people. How can ordinary people compare with their figure and face? Moreover, they have a gentle personality and they practice dancing. This temperament”
The old aunt, Su’s mother and others were whispering to the side.
Look at Liu Shishi from time to time.
This is true. Those who can become stars are those who were discovered when they were in school. Not to mention the beauty of the country, they are far superior to the average person.
“Click!”
Looking at those non-mainstream photos with bulging faces, Su Yi was a little speechless. After all, he still had the memory of 2023. Seeing such a posture again, It feels a little weird.
It is the legendary Tootzui and Scissorhands.
"Are these all out-of-print? Hahaha, a few days ago my classmate also grabbed a Bunker Rabbit, and the whole class was envious."
After looking at the doll in the plastic bag, Xiaoyi couldn't help but Zhu said.
Su Yi nodded happily. Liu Shishi's father did a good job. There is an explanation on each doll of the same series.
These are some real cases in overseas wars.
For example, the soldier who sacrificed his life to blow up the bunker, blocked the eyes, and remained silent even when being burned.
Making the Q version is not to disrespect them, but to let more children know their stories.
“I brought the whole set.”
Liu Shishi took out the things.
They are all packed in wooden boxes, which are of great collection value.
“If this is out of print, how much money will be lost?”
The second aunt's family was in business, she exclaimed.
“My dad asked the same question at the time, and it was what my senior said. If you want to grow your business, you must not be greedy for immediate profits, but must improve your brand. This is the long-term path. For example, people think Your things are valuable, so they will be hyped and purchased, but if you make and wholesale them without restrictions, no one will recognize them.”
Does Su Yi still have this insight?
The second aunt and the old aunt are both in business. After Wei Wei thought about it, he thought it made sense.
“And this time I went to Shangmei. If we can negotiate more copyrights, our company can also purchase them, and then we will have more IP.”
Su Yi still feels it is a pity to see some of Mei's animated characters.
I don’t think it should just disappear like this.
Should accompany the childhoods of several generations!
"Going to the United States? Wow! Will Calabash Baby be able to release new works by then? Will they also be played like that rabbit?"
Xiao Xuan heard this and asked hurriedly .
This is ‘big news’.
When the time comes, you can go to school and brag to your classmates.
"Yes, I went here this time just to talk about this matter, and there was an order from above."
This was considered the 'condition' for Su Yi's exchange.
Let me shoot a movie, I can agree.
But you must get the copyright to use some of Shanghai's animated characters!
How did Disney start?
Owning the copyrights of countless animated characters, even Disneyland, which later became famous, was because of the feelings of countless people and the facilities in it.
We need to create our own country’s animation IP!
Nezha, Calabash Baby, Sun Wukong
Su Yi is a director and has no plans to start a company in the future.
However, in order to achieve glory, we must re-give life to these animated characters!
Just like that rabbit, it has become a popular animation that everyone knows now!
Still asking for votes! Thank you all! Because it’s about the combat power list! Monthly vote list! Thanks for the tip yesterday!
