China Entertainment: Great directors start by winning actresses

Chapter 194 Crazy Tang Yan

Now she doesn't care much about the salary Su Zhe gives her. She must have earned a lot of money from Da Tiantian.

At night, Su Zhe returned to his home alone, looking at the stars.

The lights in the room were always on, and someone was busy in the kitchen.

Su Zhe thought about it casually and knew that Tang Yan must be here.

Only she would come to Su Zhe's house to cook at this time.

He gently hugged the beauty in front of him from behind.

"long time no see!"

"Yeah" Tang Yan turned to look at Su Zhe with a shy look.

Tang Yan was absolutely conniving towards Su Zhe. No matter what outrageous requests Su Zhe had, she always agreed to them one by one.

"It's okay!" Tang Yan looked at Su Zhe with a smile. ,
"I know you are busy."

"I just hate myself."

Tang Yan looked at Su Zhe with blank eyes.

Cavalry, as an important force on ancient battlefields, demonstrated unparalleled mobility and combat effectiveness with its excellent riding skills and perseverance.

He holds the reins tightly, steadying himself while guiding the horse forward with subtle movements and commands.

Su Zhe's extraordinary eyesight could see a trace of tears falling from Tang Yan's eyes.

This long-distance run was not only a test of their physical strength and skills, but also a test of their will and spirit.

"no."

His heartbeat synchronizes with the horse's pace, which together form the rhythm and melody of the gallop.

"Yeah, but no matter how busy you are, nothing is as important as you."

Tang Yan ignored Su Zhe and insisted on getting up again.

"Ok!"

"Sometimes a person's birth determines everything, and there is nothing you can do to change it."

Maybe there are no changes in his family, can he pursue Su Zhe openly?
But everything is already settled.

Su Zhe hugged the weak and boneless Tangtang, sighed and said, "Am I a scumbag?"

He will naturally take good care of them. Both Su Zhe and Su Zhe are not too old, and they are not the kind of slick social people.

"Don't!"

Su Zhe gently sniffed her long hair.

"What."

"Don't pity me, I can do it!" Tang Yan looked at Su Zhe stubbornly.

"Thankfully I came back today, otherwise I wouldn't have missed you."

Su Zhe gently kissed the woman who followed him wholeheartedly.

Horses, with their strong bodies and excellent endurance, carry cavalry across grasslands, mountains and plains, showing amazing speed and flexibility.

His eyes were firm and sharp, always paying attention to the road conditions ahead and the enemy's movements.

During the long-distance attack, the cavalry and the horses formed a close tacit understanding.

However, it is these challenges and difficulties that temper their will and perseverance, making them stronger and braver.

A cavalryman riding a horse to attack a long distance is a vivid picture full of power and speed.

Even when Su Zhe asked to play a tauren, the plot was the same. She was just a girl humbled in the dust.

They need to overcome difficulties such as fatigue, hunger and thirst, while also dealing with enemies or obstacles that may appear.

"No, Su Zhe, let's talk after dinner." Tang Yan was so anxious that he almost shed tears.

After all, the contents of the pot will soon become mushy.

"You don't want your life. If you continue like this, your body won't be able to bear it." Su Zhe couldn't help but frown and look at Tang Yan.

Desperately, he indulged himself in everything.

As the horse gallops, the cavalryman constantly adjusts his posture and breathing to adapt to the shock and bumps caused by high-speed movement.

Even if those requirements are very excessive.

Regarding the kindness that Tang Yan, Da Tiantian, Liu Yifei and Lin Yuner released to me, sometimes I was really at a loss what to do.

"Have you never cheated on me?"

At night, Su Zhe and Tang Yan desperately shed their tears and sweat.

Finally, when the cavalry and horses successfully reached their destination, their faces were filled with smiles of victory.

During the long-distance attack, both the cavalry and the horses faced huge challenges.

Su Zhe didn't want to explain anything to anyone, he was just a scumbag.

"Okay, stop making trouble!"

Su Zhe forced her to bury her under the quilt and let her sleep well.

Tang Yan, who was soon exhausted, finally failed to resist Zhou Gong's temptation.

Soon he fell into a deep sleep.

Su Zhe looked at the tear-stained Tangtang and didn't know what to say.

After all, the world is so uneven.

Some people can have enough food and clothing and have everything without struggling. Some people work hard all their lives, but end up scarred and need medical treatment for all the money they earn.

Can Su Zhe solve this kind of thing? Totally impossible.

The most he could do was create his own endowment.

Su Zhe looked at her sleeping face and thought of his next task.

He plans to carefully edit several fascinating promotional videos for "Inception", aiming to perfectly present the essence of the film in front of the audience.

These promotional videos will skillfully use images and sound effects to lead the audience into a dream world full of fantasy and mystery, making people feel deeply interested in the confusion and choose to watch the movie without hesitation.

Some promotional videos are truly stunning, showing highlights of the entire movie in just three minutes, misleading the audience into thinking how amazing the movie is.

When the audience walks into the cinema and finds that the remaining 90 minutes do not have much new ideas, they will inevitably feel disappointed and call themselves fooled.

The situation is somewhat similar to player clips.

Sometimes, just by watching a CBA player's highlights, we feel as if he can easily dominate the NBA.

However, this is often not the case. Highlights often only show the players’ highlight moments and ignore their other performances in the game.

Likewise, sometimes movie promotions leave us with too high expectations.

For example, just judging from the promotional video of "Fortress", everyone thinks that domestic science fiction movies are about to reach a new peak.

However, the result was a big disappointment. The quality of the film was far from the level shown in the promotional video, which caused a big problem for everyone.

This really applies to the production of film promotions, whether to attract audiences or communicate with distributors.

For "Inception", editing some highlights from the film as promotional content can effectively show its charm and characteristics.

At the same time, sending these clips to Colombian companies can also help them conduct targeted promotions in the American market.

So the next day, Su Zhe contacted the special effects company and asked for some of the completed special effects parts, and then went into the editing room again.

The movie "Inception" will be released simultaneously around the world, and its distribution in Western countries such as Europe and the United States has been fully handled by Columbia.

In Asia, especially in markets outside the mainland, Su Zhe chose to cooperate with local snake Jiang Zhiqiang, using his resources and influence in Asia to ensure that the film can smoothly enter major theaters and receive widespread attention.

Su Zhe quickly rushed to Xiangjiang by plane. "Hey, Director Su, you are really a rare guest!" Jiang Zhiqiang greeted Su Zhe cheerfully as soon as he saw him.

Su Zhe responded with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, it's rare for me to see such a busy person like you.

This time, several of my good friends recommended me to come here, saying that it would be a good idea to cooperate with you. "

"Haha, everyone is a guest everywhere." Jiang Zhiqiang greeted warmly, and then motioned to his secretary to serve tea to everyone.

"Sit down, sit down, let's have a sip of tea first and chat slowly."

The tea was served quickly, and the fragrance overflowed, making people feel comfortable.

The name Jiang Zhiqiang may not be familiar to most people, but he is an important promoter in the Chinese film industry.

As the man behind many outstanding films such as Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger Hero Huo Yuanjia, he successfully promoted these films to a broader stage with his unique vision and keen market insight.

Not only that, Jiang Zhiqiang also has a unique vision and has directly introduced films such as "The Ring", "House of Flying Daggers" and "A City of Golden Armor" to mainstream Western theaters.

This move not only opened the door to overseas markets for Chinese films, but also won Chinese films a reputation on the international stage.

He has built a market bridge for Chinese films to overseas and made important contributions to the internationalization process of Chinese films.

Although Su Zhe did not go through his route at the beginning, but directly chose to cooperate with Jingjia for promotion, he has to admit his unique authority in the Asian route.

"I wonder, Director Su, do you have anything to do with me, an old man?"

Jiang Zhiqiang looked at Su Zhe with a smile on his face. He had obviously guessed Su Zhe's intention, but he did not say it directly.

Su Zhe was asking for help, so naturally he did not dare to look down on this senior. He responded with a smile: "Haha, Mr. Jiang, I encountered some difficulties this time. When I was looking sad, my friends all recommended me to come to you. ”

"They said you have great powers and will be able to solve my problems."

"Oh? What else can stump the international director Su Zhe? Then I want to listen carefully." Jiang Zhiqiang pretended to be surprised as he picked up the tea and took a sip gently, as if he was expecting Su Zhe to answer. Come down and tell.

In fact, Jiang Zhiqiang already knew that Su Zhe's visit this time was just for the release of "Inception" in Asia.

Jiang Zhiqiang was very happy about Su Zhe's visit. Although the two companies have not cooperated before, Su Zhe's status in the international film industry plays a decisive role.

He knows that cooperation with Su Zhe will bring huge business expansion opportunities to the company.

However, Jiang Zhiqiang also knew that Su Zhe had a long and profound history of cooperation with Columbia.

Su Zhe came to him this time, perhaps because he wanted to get some adjustments in the distribution share.

You must know that Colombian companies that distribute in Asia are absolutely unable to compare with themselves.

Su Zhe continued with a smile: "Let me tell you straight, I hope "Inception" can be released simultaneously around the world, especially in Asia. I hope Mr. Jiang can help me."

Jiang Zhiqiang asked curiously: "Oh? I heard that your cooperation with Columbia Company has always been very good. Why do you want to change your cooperation with another company this time?"

Su Zhe replied confidently: "I hope that the movie "Inception" can truly break the record in film history, otherwise I wouldn't have specifically come to Mr. Jiang for help."

He further emphasized: "The most important thing is that I expect this movie to break box office records in various countries and regions at least in Asia."

Jiang Zhiqiang also smiled when he heard Su Zhe's confidence: "Since you are so confident, then I will naturally try my best to help you achieve this goal."

Su Zhe said gratefully: "Thank you so much. As long as you nod, the record-breaking thing will be confirmed."

Jiang Zhiqiang said jokingly: "Tsk tsk, look what you said, if you don't break the record, don't you have to rely on me? If you really don't break the record, do I have to make up for you?"

Su Zhe responded with a smile: "How is that possible? But this is what you said."

Jiang Zhiqiang looked at Su Zhe. He was deeply impressed by the young director's confidence and courage.

He shook his head and said with a smile: "You, you, I have never seen a young man as presumptuous as you." However, his words revealed his appreciation and expectations for Su Zhe.

There is something new about each other.

"I hope Mr. Jiang can pay more attention to the island country. I really don't have many network resources for the distribution and promotion of "Inception" there."

"Coupled with my previous remarks about the movie "Nanjing! Nanjing!", my popularity there has declined a bit. Therefore, I have to ask Mr. Jiang for more help and work hard." Su Zhe said seriously. .

As the second largest box office market in the world after America, the island nation’s potential is self-evident.

If "Inception" can be a big success in the island country, it will undoubtedly be a huge boost to the movie's global box office.

Su Zhe also attaches great importance to the box office in the island country, but he also knows that his influence there is limited.

Although he has some adoring fans, overall his connections in the island nation are not extensive.

After listening to Su Zhe's words, Jiang Zhiqiang thought for a moment and said, "If Leonardo can personally go to the island country to promote it, it will definitely be a big boost."

"In addition, we can also borrow the name of a Colombian company, so that the producers of the island country will be more attentive. After all, that country admires the culture and influence of America's father very much."

After listening to Jiang Zhiqiang's words, Su Zhe nodded in agreement.

He understands that to succeed in the island market, not only good film quality is needed, but also effective promotion and publicity.

As a publisher with rich experience and extensive contacts in Asia, Jiang Zhiqiang is undoubtedly their best partner.

Jiang Zhiqiang also seemed to know that Su Zhe was a person who favored his own country, so he would naturally tell people's stories and tell ghosts' lies.

Express your special intentions very strongly.

Naturally, Su Zhe wouldn't believe it, but it was pretty good to do this on his own surface.

Su Zhe nodded seriously, and then said: "Leonardo is indeed very popular in the island country, and his influence cannot be underestimated."

"When the time comes, I will go to the venue with him to promote, hoping to bring more attention to the movie."

He went on to explain: "The island country is flocking to America's superstars. This is not only due to political reasons, but also because the island country is the second largest market in the world, and both box office and record sales are very important."

"Many American superstars will go to the island country to promote, which also makes the fans in the island country even more enthusiastic about them."

When Jiang Zhiqiang heard this, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He looked at Su Zhe appreciatively and said, "That would be the best."

"Actually, your popularity in the island country is also very high. They admire geniuses very much. After you became famous in Amilika, you have indeed been recognized by many people."

Jiang Zhiqiang himself also admires geniuses like Su Zhe very much. He believes that genius can always bring surprises and breakthroughs.

Coupled with Su Zhe's politeness and humility, he was even more impressed by Su Zhe.

After eating, it was already dark.

Su Zhe took out his mobile phone on the way back to the hotel and wanted to call someone else, but suddenly found that he didn't know who to call.

As for the negotiation team on this matter, they have already arrived. There are professional people doing professional things, so Su Zhe naturally does not need to interfere with the negotiation.

Su Zhe, who had no contact for the time being, directly chose to call David Smith to inquire about various matters regarding the release of "Inception" in Europe and the United States.

"I have already contacted Columbia. "Inception" will premiere simultaneously in 7 countries and regions around the world on July 10, except of course, Asia." David Smith said seriously.

Su Zhe nodded when he heard this. If Asia is included, there will be nearly sixty or seventy countries showing the film at the same time. This is undoubtedly a spectacular sight.

He further asked: "How many first-run theaters are there in North America?"

David Smith replied: "4072."

Su Zhe nodded with satisfaction. This scale of screening is already considered top-notch in North America. "

“For a non-English-language film, this box-office size is already a breakthrough.

He is well aware that discrimination against Asians is widespread in Europe and the United States.

In this regard, they will definitely be treated unfairly.

If it weren't for Columbia's great efforts, it is estimated that their movies would not be released in so many theaters.

Even though he came to Xiangjiang, no one sent Su Zhe a female star. This made him look out the window speechlessly. Do they all think that they are serious people?
In Hong Kong, Su Zhe does have many favorite stars, such as Qiu Shuzhen, Li Jiaxin, Zhu Yin, Brigitte Lin and Gigi Lai, etc.

These actresses won the love of countless fans with their unique charm and outstanding acting skills back then. Their every move and smile touched people's hearts, and they can be regarded as peerless elegance.

However, time flies and time flies.

Nowadays, Su Zhe is no longer the young self he was back then, and those once-famous actresses have long since married or retired. Their youth has passed away and can only be found in their memories.

Despite this, Su Zhe's love for them has not diminished.

He often recalls the wonderful performances of those actresses on the screen and the happiness and touch they once brought to him.
