Chapter 324 Preparing for the Movie Premiere
Zhou Xia was very puzzled that Er Di didn't join Xia Hua.

At that time, she reminded Yang Tianzhen that she and the little fox were mentioned. He didn't know if he was Erdi's idol, but the little fox definitely was.

And Little Fox signed Xia Hua on January 1st, which must be attractive to Er Di.

Yang Tianzhen was very dissatisfied with Zhou Xia's tone, and replied cautiously: "She herself wanted to sign Xia Hua, but after consulting the teachers and the school, and other companies also offered olive branches, she declined us. .”

"Did you decline? Didn't ask her the specific reason? Which company also wants to sign Er Di?"

Zhou Xia took a sip of the hot tea brought by the office assistant.

The tea was a little hot, but the warmth flowed into my belly, the fragrance filled my mouth, and my whole body was warmed up.

"I asked. Her teacher said that our company has already signed Yaya and Mina. She has the same appearance and type. If she comes, she will definitely not be ranked. There will be no acting. It is not recommended that she sign Xia Hua, so she changed. In addition, Tang Ren also wants to sign with Erdi."

"Her teacher's words make sense, but what's the sugar man trying to coax?" Zhou Xia nodded, surprised by the sugar man's behavior.

After all, it is the beginning of 2011, and the Lunar New Year has not yet passed, and the exotic looks like Erdi, Mina, and Yaya are far from the time to catch fire!

"I don't know, maybe it's because she is a school girl in the theater." Yang Tianzhen guessed.

"Your statement is not very reliable, but it doesn't matter, our company has a lot of drama, and we just want to vigorously train new people.

After signing her contract, as long as she follows the company's system and accepts training well, there will be plenty of opportunities to make her mark. Didn't you guys make this clear to her? "

"I've said it. But the girl didn't know whether she didn't believe in the company's promotion rules, or she was deliberately making things difficult for us. She said that if the company really signed a contract to train her, then add a clause in the contract that her first female lead role will be yours." The male lead, she signed the contract, so when I was angry, I stopped talking to her."

"Hehe, she is quite good at asking for conditions. It must be her teacher's idea."

Zhou Xia couldn't help laughing, Er Di probably didn't have so many thoughts now.

"Then what does the boss mean? Are you still signing her?" Yang Tianzhen saw that Zhou Xia was not only not angry, but also laughed. He knew that Zhou Xia would probably sign a contract, so he asked tentatively.

"Well, of course we have to sign a contract, but now it's winter vacation, how do you contact him? Remember. Be sure to sign her before Sugar Man."

"Don't worry, the boss. The girl said that she will discuss with her family when she returns home during the Chinese New Year. After school starts, she will decide to sign with the company."

"Okay, then you can tell her that I agreed to her terms, but if I want to act for him, at least she will graduate, and this will be written into the contract."

"Okay, I know."

"Do you have anything else to do?"

"It's nothing. The main reason is that according to what you said, I have contacted some artists. Their contracts are about to expire and they can be signed."

Zhou Xia picked up the document that Yang Tianzhen had given him earlier, and the top one indeed contained the names of many newcomers and young actors.

Chen Chichi, Zheng Kai, Zhou Yiwei, etc. have been in contact with each other before, and it seems that the communication is almost complete, and some of them have already signed contracts.

"Oh, you can do it as you see fit, and how about finding a new assistant for me?"

"Still searching."

"You look for it slowly. The main thing is to find someone who knows what's in his heart, who has a tight mouth, and can talk about everything else."

"understood."

The two were talking when the phone rang. Zhou Xia pressed the call button, "Boss, Mr. Zhang from the film business department wants to see you."

"Okay, let him in."

"Boss, I'm leaving first." Yang Tianzhen got up and bid farewell to Zhou Xia and went out.

Zhang Zhao just came in from the door, and the two nodded in greeting.

Zhou Xia got up and walked to the reception area by the window, asking Zhang Zhao to sit down on the sofa.

"Boss, is the shooting going well?"

"It's going well, and it's finished. The promotion of the movie during this period is thanks to the seniors."

"This is what it should be. Everything has been prepared. After the trial screening of the No. 20 film, if there are no major problems, it can be handed over to the film studio for copying and full publicity."

"The film will basically not be changed again. The trial screening is mainly for the media and film critics to have a look first, so that they can help promote it."

After Zhou Xia finished speaking, he remembered an important matter, and asked Zhang Zhao: "As of the end of the month, how many screens will there be in China, and how will we arrange the number of copies?"

"Currently, there are about 8400 screens in China, of which less than 6000 old theaters are film projections, and the remaining [-] are digital theaters."

"Well, not bad." Zhou Xia nodded, the number was similar to the number he remembered, and he signaled Zhang Zhao to continue.

"Our copies are still based on the number of theaters and screens, and we don't want to send digital copies to the newly built digital theaters in the past two years. If the theater has a key, it will be played in the library of China Film's digital theater system. Through the MSI signal or network signal, it can be transmitted to the digital projector for projection."

"That's good, the possibility of being pirated will be reduced. After all, our movie is a 2D movie. Once it is pirated, it will still affect the box office results!"

"Well, we will strictly supervise this. As long as no one tampers with the inside, there will generally be no problems, and if any theater tampers, it can be found out."

"That's good. For the test screening, the media and reporters, there are seniors. You have seen the movie. I still have confidence in the quality of our movie."

"The boss can rest assured that the red envelopes will definitely be in place. We don't expect those film critics and entertainment reporters to say good things about us. At least we can't let them take other people's red envelopes to blackmail our movies."

"Yes, indeed, our current film critics are really, ugh..."

Zhou Xia didn't bother to complain, and continued: "I'm not afraid of being scolded when I make movies, but I'm annoyed by some film critics who make one-size-fits-all or double-standard judgments!

I also usually watch movies, and I have different requirements for each type of movie. It is a paradox to require the artistic level of a literary movie to be a commercial movie. "

"It is true that the domestic film industry is still in a period of barbaric development and is far from perfect. There is no way to avoid these."

Zhang Zhao took it for granted, then thought of one thing, and said curiously: "Boss, I want to ask what is the relationship between the Meow Eye movie developed by Bingyu Technology more than a month ago and our Xiahua Film and Television, and the movie it gave us. How helpful is the industry system, can it help us promote movie ticket sales? ”

"Oh, this, I really forgot to tell you."

Zhou Xia smiled slightly, "Currently Meow Eye Movies is mainly about online ticket purchases, box office statistics, and an Internet platform that connects movie theaters and audiences. As for the future, you can regard it as a part of the film and television Internet+ I mentioned to you last time.

If Xiahua Video Network is connected with users through computers, mobile phones, TVs, Xiahua set-top boxes, and video terminals, it provides users with Xiahua's unique and rich content services.

The Miaoyan movie is to connect theaters and our Xiahua movies with the audience. It is mainly aimed at movies.

However, Miaoyan Movie has only been in operation for less than two months now. At present, domestic theaters are mainly cooperating with only Wanda and China Film’s theaters, and Shanghai Film is negotiating, covering only more than 30.00% of domestic theaters.

In the future, more theaters will be included, and if it is recognized by users, it will have a huge impact on both movie promotion and online ticket sales. "

After listening to Zhang Zhao, he was even more satisfied. Zhou Xia's layout showed that he had already prepared in advance.

Although no effect has been seen so far, at least Xiahua Films is far ahead of other domestic entertainment companies and Internet companies on the road of combining the Internet and entertainment.

"Okay, I understand, then I will go to Miaoyan to discuss the promotion of the film. This is the preparation for the premiere. If there is anything missing, the boss will notify me at any time."

Zhang Zhao said, and handed over the folder he had been holding to Zhou Xia.

"Okay, I know."

After Zhou Xia got up to send Zhang Zhao out of the office, she returned to her desk and sat down to watch the preparations for the movie premiere.

He had discussed the premiere with Zhang Zhao and others before, and it would be combined with the finals of "The Voice of China" imperial audition.

At that time, the stars, celebrities, and media who participated in the premiere will be invited to watch the movie premiere. After watching the movie, there will be an interview event. The top four winners of "The Voice of China" will sing the classic old songs in the movie with their mentors. Add to the fun.

It just happens to connect movies and variety shows, so that everyone can recall old songs, recall youth, cherish love, and combine well with the theme of the movie to achieve a promotional effect of one plus one greater than two.

In fact, the most important thing is who are the celebrities and stars invited to participate in the premiere. After all, the four big music stars don't have much influence in the film industry.

Although Lao Mouzi was not easy to invite, Zhou Xia invited him anyway, but it was agreed that he would not accept any interviews.

Of course Zhou Xia agreed, the problem will be explained when the person arrives, it doesn't matter if he doesn't talk.

Other big names include China Film Group Han Sanye. After all, they released the film, and he also knows Zhou Xia's network, so he naturally came to support him.

Other celebrities, sister Zhou Xun, Miss Xiaomei, Brother Chun, and Fan Xiaoxuan have just collaborated and established the Longmen Alumni Association. They volunteered to join in.

In addition, Zhou Xia invited Fan Meiniang through Mou Xiaofeng, and he personally contacted the international chapter.

The international chapter is a girl who can be regarded as Zhou Xia's senior sister, and now she is at the worst time because of the Pomo sect.

Now Zhou Xia extended an olive branch, willing to increase her film-related exposure, of course she agreed.

The other candidates are mainly invited by Zhang Zhao. With Xia Hua's influence, he can also invite several big names.

　The second chapter has been updated, and there will really be another chapter in a while.
