Chapter 483: Fan Yaluo Guangxing
The appearance of the "Chicago" script immediately attracted Tracy's attention, and after having a general understanding of it, she couldn't help but love it.
So Liu Qingshan sent this script in order to help her realize her wish, but because there were a lot of songs and dances in it, he needed to slowly put the contents in his mind onto paper bit by bit.
Now a few months have passed, and the completed script is stored in his computer, just waiting for Tracy to visit.
In addition to these people, many people came from London. For example, the royal delegation headed by the Earl and Countess included Kevin Carlton, Harry Brown, Daniel and others.
Especially the last one, he is the queen's biological son, a dignified prince. He is just a follower around him. If you pick one at random, he will be a middle-level manager in the queen's office.
[To be honest, I have been using Mimi recently to read and catch up on books. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on both Android and Apple.]
The people coming from Seattle were Mike Wallace and his son, as well as the patient named George Gulledman, the real estate agent Cecilio, and the TV station Gullenna.
There are also Adela, Vice President of World Vision Headquarters, Brenda Smith, host of NEC TV, and her athletic boyfriend Paige, who is two meters tall.
Among this group of people, Powell, the bald department director of NEC TV, and Baker Hill, the CEO, were specially invited by Liu Qingshan because they needed business cooperation.
Generally speaking, there are more than fifty guests from Europe and the United States, and half of them are famous people.
Combining stars, directors, and film company bosses from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places, an ordinary movie premiere is actually more massive than an international film festival.
As the main investors and producers of "Kung Fu", China Film and Qinghuang are also busy with this grand gathering.
Originally, they did not plan to mobilize forces like this, but Liu Qingshan forced them into the current situation. However, the two parties not only did not have any grudges, but actually enjoyed it.
Although the overall investment amount has been increased by a large amount at once, the future box office is also guaranteed. When the two are balanced, everyone will be happy.
January 8 was the night before the premiere. Liu Qingshan, who had been busy for several days, finally had a rare opportunity to sit down and take a breath.
Dad Hotel in Shanghai has taken over the check-in problem for all the guests. With the big boss, Daddy Bumi, coming, all the hotel staff have been working overtime for more than a week.
Tonight is a cocktail party held in my father's name. Almost all the guests who came to congratulate me are here, including the Chinese artist teams from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.
There were more than 300 people gathered in this top-floor restaurant, not including the hundreds of reporters and filming teams who were arranged in the restaurant on the other floor.
Why is it that such an important occasion is Liu Qingshan's most leisurely moment? That's because he can finally eat and drink with peace of mind as a guest.
For several days in a row, he has been busy receiving people from all walks of life. The reception is not just a few polite words, it requires business contacts on the basis of eating, drinking and sleeping, a lot of business, and in-depth career.
Collaborative discussion.
It can be said that the reception was like holding a small business meeting. The continuous hard work made this seven-level innate and extremely powerful person feel exhausted.
As for Daddy Bumi, who is also a guest, the purpose of spending a large amount of money to hold this cocktail party is actually the same as
The purely commercial relationship is not big, but it has more meaning in helping his son Kram’s career development.
Although Crum's Treasure Pictures is second to none in Tianzhu, the Bollywood shooting style will obviously lose its influence if it is divorced from South Asia.
If you want your movies to go beyond that region, you can only make works that are more in line with the aesthetic point of view of the Eurasian continent.
Therefore, Crumb urgently needs to cooperate more closely with the film market in Europe and the United States so that his ambition to go abroad can be realized earlier.
It's hard to find such a star-studded occasion, so it's extremely important that Bumi Daddy can use Liu Qingshan's light to hold this cocktail party.
Otherwise, even if he is the richest man in the world, it will not be easy to gather the guests of a major film festival together. After all, the influence of the Bollywood film market does not have much appeal internationally, and it is even far less than that of Hong Kong.
What about movies produced on one-third of an acre?
Since the guest has become the host, tonight's reception task falls on the father and his son. Fortunately, there is also the future real richest man in the world, Steve Jobs, helping him.
Today, Jobs is completely free from the disease, and his current physical health is even more energetic than before the disease.
Moreover, his physique was as if it had been completely transformed by Liu Qingshan. In addition to being unable to practice due to his age, his physical fitness in other aspects was also much higher than that of ordinary middle-aged people.
With his and Daddy Bumi's influence in the global business community, the power of joining forces is terrifying. This is the real capital tycoon, and even the governments of various countries have the power to control funds.
It is conceivable that the bosses of the film companies present were horrified by the unexpected alliance between the two capital tycoons, and at the same time, it was natural that they all expressed a cooperative attitude.
Although it is unlikely that some substantial cooperation intention will be reached at the cocktail party, the attitudes of these people have already met Daddy Bumi's psychological expectations.
Under his protection, Treasure Pictures has no financial pressure. All it lacks is development resources.
In fact, those European and American entertainment manufacturing industries do not need to pay much. They only provide technical and personnel help on a certain project. Moreover, this kind of payment is not in the nature of sponsorship and is equally profitable.
So, before the cocktail party ended, Cram had a lot of business cards in his hand, which made the bearded Ah San very proud for a long time.
Since the premiere was the next day, after the reception, Liu Qingshan and several investors of "Kung Fu" had a small meeting to attend.
In the opening remarks of the meeting, Yang Wancheng's first words were lamenting: "I have been in this industry for decades, and this is the first time I have experienced such a grand premiere. I am afraid that it is not even the top production in Hollywood."
Catching up on this kind of thing, right?”
Han Shanping responded happily: "The key is that these people came here willingly. We don't need to waste much notice expenses. It's not Shanzi's face that earned it!"
Another investor spoke: "But how does Mr. Liu determine whether our "Kung Fu" is a box office hit? If the thunder is loud and the raindrops are light, it will be a joke afterwards!"
This man's name is Luo Weixing, the CEO of an investment company called Pan Asia.
His company's main business is not engaged in film industry production, it is a pure commercial investment method.
But his investment proportion in "Kung Fu" is not high. It is said that with an investment of tens of millions, China Film and Qing Dynasty
Any one of them can win alone.
It's just that there is an underlying rule for the direction of funds in the entertainment industry, which is the so-called sharing of risks and benefits. It is a sign of sharing risks together and openly sharing the cake equally.
Since it is a potential rule, there must be certain constraints within the industry, so this situation will occur in any project. Unless you do this project and will never be in this circle again, otherwise the consequence of being a monopoly will be that other capital forces
of exclusion and suppression.
Huaying is pretty awesome. Not only is it the best in mainland China, it also has a large number of official titles.
But they still have to follow the rules of this game, because none of the other capital forces are easy to deal with, and they all have their own backgrounds and funding sources.
But the rule is that dead people are alive. There are actually only one or two leading companies in any movie. If the power is too equal, it will be more difficult to operate.
Therefore, the real say in "Kung Fu" is actually only China Film and Qinghuang, and the combined proportion of Pan Asia and other investors is only one-tenth.
Regarding this point, look at the title producer and production company. The first and second companies are generally the main companies of the project, and they will either provide financial investment, resources and manpower, or platforms and channels for publicity.
Or it is an employment relationship with the main company, or a cooperative relationship between Party A and Party B, where I pay for the work and you do it.
The companies covered include film and television companies with backgrounds in investment and financial management, marketing and publicity, distribution, post-production, music production, visual effects, ticketing, filming locations, etc. or companies with various other titles.
Generally speaking, people and companies at the back end of producers or production companies are mostly those who only provide money. They do not interfere with the entire production, promotion, and distribution process. They just show their faces, spend money, and find funds.
Just look for them.
In fact, this kind of potential rule is not useless. Investments of tens of millions or hundreds of millions require cooperation to complete, and it can also reduce risks.
Liu Qingshan didn't care about Luo Weixing's questioning tone, because this was the working attitude that an investor should have. Such people often have a rigorous discussion style like a lawyer.
He was the direct planner of this sensational scene, so of course he had to express his attitude first: "I can understand Mr. Luo's worries, but based on my personal resume as an artist, do you really think they are here for my face? In fact, they are.
A large part of the reason, which many people know, is the CG special effects of "Kung Fu". As far as a certain high-tech technology is concerned, we are ahead of Hollywood!"
Luo Weixing nodded: "I know this, but after watching the final cut of "Kung Fu", I always felt that it was just the combination of some martial arts design and special effects that was unique. Overall, to be honest, no matter the scale of the scene,
And the momentum is far inferior to some Hollywood blockbuster productions!"
"Mr. Luo doesn't know that Snowland Studio and Yimeizhi Film Studio still have newer technologies, which are not shown in this film. What you see is only superficial technological progress, maybe those Hollywood production teams
Inspired by this movie, it can also be copied, but I guarantee that they will not dare to blatantly plagiarize, because this will prevent future cooperation opportunities!"
"You mean the anti-aging technology in "No Country for Old Men"? Its application scope is not very wide, right? And its technology supports the patent rights of 'motion capture' technology, but it has nothing to do with Snowy Land!"
Chapter completed!
