I am a director, but I have the skills of an actor

Chapter 122 Zhang Weiping

After Wan Qingshan said that Qingshan Cinema would be controlled by Ye Xuan in the future, Ye Xuan was silent for a long time before speaking.

"Director Wan, the conditions you mentioned are very tempting to me, but I have to think about it carefully."

Wan Qingshan felt happy, as long as he thought about it, it would definitely happen.

One is a decision-maker who can work hard to be in charge of a company, and the other is a manager with no hope of advancement. For a man who does not have to worry about financial problems, he will definitely choose the former one.

"Of course, Manager Ye, you should think about this matter carefully."

Immediately, Wan Qingshan thought that it was almost mid-November, and there was only one and a half months until the issuance of the above policy.

So Wan Qingshan quickly continued, "However, Manager Ye hopes that you can give me an answer within a week.

You can wait, but I, Qingshan Cinema, cannot wait. If you give me an answer earlier, I can prepare earlier.After all, you are just my preferred person to control Qingshan Cinema, not the only one. "

Not the only candidate!Ye Nuan suddenly felt anxious, and he wanted to change his mind and agree on the spot.

When he was about to say something, he suddenly thought that this would make Wan Qingshan look down on him, so he immediately changed his words.

"Don't worry, Director Wan, I will give you an answer within three days, not within a week."

Wan Qingshan, who was about to hurry up and get Ye Xuan to agree, immediately responded, "Okay, Manager Ye, I'll wait for you for three days."

"No problem, Director Wan, I will definitely give you the answer within three days."

After the business talk was over, Wan Qingshan asked the waiter to come in, order and serve the food.

Ye Xuan had already decided to join the Qingshan Cinema Line, so while chatting while eating, he kept asking Wan Qingshan about Qingshan Cinema's development plan.

Ye Xiu was shocked when he heard Wan Qingshan talking about buying the theater land instead of renting it.

"Director Wan, most theaters are built in prosperous areas of the city, and buying such land is not cheap.

Taking second-tier cities as an example, investing in a medium-sized theater can cost between RMB 50 and RMB 80.If you want to buy more land, it will cost nearly one million.

This is only a medium-sized theater chain. For large theaters, the investment must be doubled.

Director Wan, you just said that you won’t be able to get theaters to join the Qingshan Cinema Chain in the early stage.

Then, you have to invest all the fifteen theaters yourself, which requires at least 2000 million.

This is still the early stage. If we continue to develop according to the method of buying land and building cinemas in the future, if Qingshan Cinema Chain wants to become a large cinema chain, it will need at least [-] million in funds!
Five hundred million!Director Wan, this is a lot of pressure. "

The government now supports the development of cinema chains, and the requirements for cinema chain licenses are very low. Inter-provincial cinema chains only need [-] cinemas, and provincial cinema chains only need [-] cinemas.

In the future, theaters are developing too fast and chaotically. The authorities have imposed restrictions on theater chains. Only [-] theaters can be issued inter-provincial theater licenses, forcing theater chains to consolidate!
"Manager Ye, I have also thought about this issue. In the early stage, I plan to develop in second-tier cities first, so that the investment will be smaller.

Every year from now on, I will invest all profits from Qingshan Film and Television Company into Qingshan Cinema.

If that's not enough, I will bring in other people to invest, so there won't be any financial pressure. "

Ye Xuan was thinking in his mind while eating.

After a moment, Ye Nian swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Director Wan, according to your idea, the financial pressure should be solved. Not to mention how much profit Qingshan Film and Television can make in a year, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the film industry is developing at a rapid pace. It shouldn’t be difficult to introduce funds online.

By the way, Director Wan, can I ask, why did you buy land to build a cinema?

Now all cinema chains, except Warner Wanda because Wanda Group itself is a real estate company, the rest of the cinema chains are rented to reduce financial pressure and develop rapidly. "

"If you rent, you will develop quickly, but you will easily end up working for the landlord in the future. I use the way of buying to develop. Although it is slow, you have a strong ability to withstand risks and can avoid working for the landlord."

Ye Nian, who was drinking tea, quickly put down his tea cup and asked curiously, "Director Wan, why do you think you will work for the landlord?"

Wan Qingshan, who was picking up vegetables, pretended to be mysterious and smiled, "Manager Ye, it's hard for me to tell you this. After all, you haven't joined the Qingshan Cinema Line yet."

After Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment, he quickly apologized and said with a smile, "Director Wan, I'm sorry, it was me who was rude."

,,,,,

Because we talked a lot, it took more than an hour to finish the meal.

After watching Ye Xuan get into the car and leave, Wan Qingshan got into the nanny car he bought yesterday, raised his hand to look at his watch, and said to the driver, Duan Tong, "Go to China Film Academy!"

The taciturn Duan Tong started the car and drove towards China Film Academy.

Yesterday afternoon, Wan Qingshan received a call from Han Sanping as soon as he picked up Yumo who had landed in the capital at the airport.

The General Administration will hold a symposium on film and television cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong Island at China Film.

Normally, the invitations from the Mainland are all big companies, while Qingshan Film and Television Company is just a small company.Logically speaking, you are not eligible to participate.

But there is no way, the boss of Qingshan Film and Television is Wan Qingshan.

Qingshan Film and Television Company’s annual profit ranks among the top among all film and television companies!

Coupled with Wan Qingshan's current reputation, if Qingshan Film and Television Company is not qualified to participate, [-]% of the film and television companies in that circle are not qualified.

Although we arrived half an hour early, compared to others, Wanqingshan arrived late.

Huayi's Wang Zhongjun, New Picture's Zhang Weiping, Tang Dynasty's Cai Yinong, and the decision-makers of major mainland film and television companies have all arrived!
Wan Qingshan entered the conference room, smiled at everyone, and then he found an empty corner to sit down.

As soon as Wan Qingshan sat down, Zhang Weiping in the new picture got up and walked to Wan Qingshan. After sitting down beside him, he called with a smile on his face, "Director Wan!"

"Mr. Zhang!" Wan Qingshan, who was confused, replied with a smile.

Zhang Weiping glanced at the people around him, then approached Wanqingshan and whispered, "Director Wan, Director Zhang's movie "Riding Alone, Thousands of Miles" will be released soon.

I would like to trouble you to help promote it online. Of course, I will pay Wan Dao the publicity fee. "

The faint smile on Wan Qingshan's face disappeared immediately. He laughed twice and said in a low voice, "Mr. Zhang, you have found the wrong person. Aren't all the online publicities looking for media reports from portal websites? You should contact them. , you are looking for the wrong person when you come to me.”

Zhang Weiping smiled slightly proudly and said, "Director Wan, I am also someone who understands publicity, so you don't have to hide it from me.

"The True Meaning of Love" and "Loyalty to the Liver and the Righteousness of the Brave", two consecutive movies were promoted on the Internet with great fanfare, especially "Loyalty to the Liver and the Righteousness" was widely known to everyone.

So when it comes to promoting movies online, you should go to Director Wan. If you go to a portal to promote a movie, the effect will not be as good as one-tenth of what Director Wan does. "

Seeing Wan Qingshan frowning and not speaking, Zhang Weiping lowered his voice and continued,

"Director Wan, of course when "The True Meaning of Love" was released, you involved Director Zhang, and Director Zhang came out to support you, which caused the matter to become even bigger. "The True Meaning of Love" exploded at the box office, and "A World Without Thieves" was People resist.

I have a share of credit for this. I knew that Director Wan wanted to promote the movie, so I persuaded Director Zhang and Director Zhang came forward to support you.Otherwise, with Director Zhang's temperament, he would definitely say nothing.Wan Dao, no matter what, I have helped you too.For this reason, it’s not too much for you to help promote Director Zhang’s film online! "

Wan Qingshan suddenly turned his head and looked directly at Zhang Weiping, feeling very surprised.

In order for "The True Meaning of Love" to surpass "A World Without Thieves" in total box office, Wan Qingshan specifically asked reporters to stimulate Lu Chuan to criticize him, hoping to guide him online so that he could become a victim and make people sympathize.

Later, Zhang Yimou came forward to support it, which caused the popularity to further expand. Wan Qingshan did not expect it. It was just that he was busy with road shows and happy that the box office had soared, so he didn't think too much about it.

Now Zhang Weiping's words have solved the doubt in Wan Qingshan's heart.

At the same time, Zhang Weiping's words couldn't help but make Wan Qingshan sigh in his heart,
"He is indeed a master of hype. When we promoted "The True Meaning of Love", we saw him come out."

Zhang Weiping made it so clear that Wan Qingshan stopped pretending.

"Mr. Zhang, thank you for helping me. As for helping Director Zhang promote the new movie, I have no problem with that.

Forget about the publicity fees, Mr. Zhang, you have helped me so much, how can I still have the nerve to charge publicity fees? "

"Haha, Director Wan, this is right. We don't have to be so unfamiliar. There is no need to say thank you. From now on, you help me and I help you. It will be good for everyone. Maybe we can work together to make money if we have the opportunity in the future. Yeah." Zhang Weiping laughed.

"Work together, you want to eat shit!" Wan Qingshan complained in his heart,

Then he smiled dumbly, changed the topic, and asked the doubts in his heart.

"Mr. Zhang, since you have seen through my promotional methods, you should also be able to see that promoting movies online will become mainstream in the future.

You must have organized a group of people, so why don't you do it yourself instead of looking for me? "

"Haha, Director Wan, I have organized a group of people like you, but I don't want to use them to promote "Ride Alone, Thousands of Miles". I have other uses for them." Zhang Weiping said with a mysterious smile.

These words made Wan Qingshan even more curious. It had another purpose!

The role of trolls can only be to hype up movies and black movies online!
Zhang Weiping approached him to promote "Riding Alone, Thousands of Miles".

Could it be that Zhang Weiping is using them to blackmail a movie in the same schedule? "Ride Alone" will be released on December 12, in the same schedule as "The Promise"!
Wan Qingshan couldn't help but laugh when he thought of this!

"The Promise" is a typical box-office success. After "The Murderous Case of a Steamed Bun" came out, the box office began to avalanche.

Now Zhang Weiping wants to take advantage of "The Promise". With Zhang Weiping's ability, the box office of "The Promise" is probably not even high, so the investors of "The Promise" will have to go to grandma's house.

Wan Qingshan suddenly laughed, leaving Zhang Weiping confused.

When Zhang Weiping wanted to ask, Han Sanping, Jiang Zhiqiang, Wen Jun, Yang Shoucheng, Du Qifeng, etc. walked in.

Jiang Zhiqiang smiled at everyone and said hello, then he walked to Wanqing Mountain and sat down, calling at the same time, "Director Wan, Mr. Zhang."

"Mr. Jiang!"

"Mr. Jiang!" Zhang Weiping was somewhat flattered by Jiang Zhiqiang and stood up slightly when greeting him.

Jiang Zhiqiang smiled at Zhang Weiping, turned his eyes, and said with a smile, "Director Wan, congratulations, the box office of "Loyalty Liver and Righteousness" in Hong Kong Island has reached 3 million, and the total box office must exceed 2 million. Hong Kong It ranks first in the annual box office in Taiwan."

"Mr. Jiang, "The Promise" will be released soon, and it will probably be kicked out soon."

Wan Qingshan knew that "The Promise" was a big hit at the box office in Hong Kong, but he didn't want to say that "The Promise" was not good. He and Chen Kaige had no grudges, so there was no need to offend him.

Before "The Promise" was released, everyone in the industry was optimistic about "The Promise", and Jiang Zhiqiang was no exception.

"The investment in "The Promise" is 4000 million. It is normal for a blockbuster to have a high box office. Director Wan, "Loyal Liver and Righteousness" only had an investment of tens of millions. It is already a big hit with a box office of [-] million in Hong Kong Island."

As soon as Jiang Zhiqiang finished speaking, someone from the General Administration arrived.

The symposium is held because the General Administration wants film and television companies from the two places to cooperate more.

On this topic, the people from the General Administration talked about it over and over again. After half an hour, Wan Qingshan almost dozed off.

"In order to further promote mutual exchanges between the film and television circles of the two places, the General Administration will strongly support some qualified co-production films."

This sentence made Wanqingshan suddenly feel sleepy.

"Some qualified co-production films! Whether they are qualified or not is not decided by the General Administration.

They also provide strong support. It seems that the General Administration’s strong support is superficial, supporting qualified co-production films, and supporting some Hong Kong film companies is superficial.

The General Administration must have already decided on this part of the Hong Kong Island Film Company, so the bosses of this part of the Hong Kong Film Company must have received the notice a long time ago. "

Wan Qingshan, whose thoughts were racing, immediately cast his gaze on the faces of Jiang Zhiqiang and Yang Shoucheng, the bosses of Hong Kong film and television companies.

Some of them looked calm, and they were the ones supported by the General Administration.

After looking at everyone, Wan Qingshan's pupils suddenly shrank slightly.

He found that Jiang Zhiqiang and Zeng Zhiwei, who had spoken out to drive Huang Qiusheng away at the banquet, all looked calm.

"Could this meeting be a follow-up to the trouble I caused in Hong Kong Island?" Wan Qingshan muttered in shock.

This made Wanqingshan immediately feel anxious and restless.

Wan Qingshan didn't listen to a word of what the people from the General Administration said later.

When the meeting ended and everyone from the General Administration went out, nothing happened, and Wan Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Qingshan, please stay for a while!"

Wan Qingshan, who had just walked out of the conference room, was shocked and looked along the sound.

Han Sanping was waving to him in the corridor behind, and standing next to Han Sanping was Tian Jin, the deputy director of the General Administration.

When Wan Qingshan saw this, his heart trembled.

Zhang Weiping and others were a little curious as to why the people from the General Administration left Wan Qingshan behind.

In an instant, everyone thought of the news that Wan Qingshan had caused in Hong Kong Island.
When it was reported that Wan Qingshan looked down on the people of Hong Kong, the people of Hong Kong had no reaction at all. Those who should watch "Loyalty Liver and Righteousness" should watch it, and it did not affect the box office at all.

On the surface, there was no reaction from the Hong Kong film and television circles, but privately many people said they would refuse to cooperate with Wan Qingshan in the future. There are rumors about these things in the mainland film and television circles.

Everyone then thought about the people from the General Administration saying they would support some co-productions, and they suddenly understood the significance of this symposium.

The General Administration wants to tell the Hong Kong film and television industry that if film companies put down their pretensions, the General Administration will support their films to achieve good box office results in the big mainland market.

Film and television companies that can't let go of their airs will fend for themselves!
At the same time, it is also a subtle expression of support for Wan Qingshan's actions on Hong Kong Island!
