Tech Islander

Chapter 42 Set a Small Goal First
Li Zhongda immediately became active when he heard that Wu Tao wanted to discuss scripts and plays with the artists.

"Don't you guys all have your own roles to think about? Now, whether it's talking or acting, you have to express your thinking and understanding of the characters to the boss."

An Qi was secretly worried that Wu Tao, a mechanical engineering major with a technical background, would rashly talk about scripts and dramas with artists. Mistakes, but it will chill the hearts of the artists below.

The front of the conference room was immediately vacated, and the artists were very active, and soon some people stood up to speak, and even auditioned on the spot.

Time passed by one minute and one second. Nine artists talked about eight scenes, and it took a full hour and a half.Wu Tao watched from the beginning to the end without saying a word in the middle.

In the end, everyone returned to their seats. An Qi concluded: "I think everyone's experience is good, and some of them are even very brilliant. This shows that you have put a lot of effort into understanding the script and improving your acting skills. Then When it comes time to select film actors, you will have great opportunities."

Li Zhongda felt that An Qi shouldn't sum it up. After all, Wu Tao is the boss, so he asked tentatively, "Boss, what do you think?"

Wu Tao cleared his throat and said, "Actually, whoever among you can take part in this movie doesn't need to wait for the selection later, I can decide for you now."

Everyone couldn't help being shocked, especially An Qi, who even kicked Wu Tao under his feet to signal him not to jump to conclusions.

Wu Tao ignored it, and pointed to three of the nine artists and said: "You three, you have a good grasp of the character's heart, and you can directly participate in the company's filming this time."

The three people who were pointed out immediately beamed with joy, but at the same time, some people were not convinced, so they immediately stood up and said: "Boss, I am not convinced. Fang Ting and I auditioned for the same scene with the same character, why should she If I can pass, I can’t pass?”

Li Zhongda quickly reprimanded: "Xie Yufei, you still dare to talk back to the boss, please apologize to the boss."

After finishing speaking, he explained to Wu Tao: "Boss, Xie Yufei and Fang Ting are both artists who can make it to the fourth tier in our company. They are relatively comparable in strength and image. Xie Yufei is a bit aggressive, don't take it to heart." .”

On the other side, An Qi glared at Wu Tao fiercely, and said in her heart: "Don't talk nonsense, look, it's not easy to step down now, is it?" '

"Your name is Xie Yufei? Are you unconvinced? It's nothing, Lao Li, you don't have to worry." Wu Tao slowly took out a USB flash drive and said, "An Qi, turn on the computer and projector, and restore the post-war invasion. scene picture!"

An Qi took the USB flash drive and said happily: "Have you even finished the special effects scene after the battle?"

In fact, Wangcai has already done all the special effects.Of course, Wu Tao wouldn't say much, just nodded and said: "Xie Yufei, Fang Ting, both of you, please try again under this background, and you will understand naturally."

Twenty minutes later, after turning off the projector, Wu Tao spread his hands and said, "Do you have anything else to say now? Xie Yufei?"

Xie Yufei waved her hands again and again, cold sweat covered her smooth forehead.Unexpectedly, Fang Ting said: "Boss, I feel that in this play, I still lack the details of emotions and expressions."

Wu Tao concluded: "Look, this is the gap! Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. Before, you may think that I am a mechanical and technical person. When I suddenly come to make movies, I am purely an amateur leading an expert."

"...But I want to declare that whether I am engaged in mechanical technology or making movies, I have one thing in common. That is, what I value is inner strength! Engaging in steelmaking and mechanical manufacturing, we use technology as a This kind of hard power to compete with RB people, not the soft power of relations and national policies!"

"...Back to the movie, the actors I hire must conquer the audience with their acting skills! As for appearance, skills, etc., they are all icing on the cake, not the main factor. Of course, things like unspoken rules are even more important. Nonsense!"

Xie Yufei applauded first, and everyone applauded together.

An Qi couldn't help but feel relieved towards Wu Tao, all of this would allow him to pass the test.Looking at the artist below, not only did he not complain about his decision, but he was convinced!
Wu Tao waved his hand to suppress everyone's applause and said, "Of course, those who were not selected this time don't need to be discouraged. I can tell you that there will definitely be another movie about the theme of this Star Wars series!"

Someone immediately asked: "Boss, we invested in the first "Ghost Messenger" ourselves. What is the approximate box office target?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Wu Tao expectantly.After all, this goal is related to the company's future development prospects, and it is also related to whether there will be a next Star Wars movie.

Wu Tao cleared his throat and said, "Because it's the first movie, it's our company's first attempt at a sci-fi movie. So we can set a small goal first, which is easy to achieve..."

Having said that, the artists below suddenly became a little listless. I just feel that the boss's courage is not very good~

Wu Tao's voice continued: "For example, one billion."

"What, boss, you said one billion?"

"Of course." Wu Tao spread his hands and said, "Since it's a small goal, we can't hold it too high. One billion is about the same, just right."

"Boss, isn't the box office of one billion yuan not high enough? How many domestic films can really break through the one billion mark over the years?" The people below couldn't help but exclaimed.

"No, no, you got it wrong." Wu Tao interrupted decisively: "I mean, one billion dollars."

"what?"

Everyone felt that their minds were blank, only An Qi and Li Zhongda were slightly prepared.

The meeting ended later, An Qi seemed to be afraid that Wu Tao would boast too much, so she dragged him out of the company first.

Xie Yufei followed Fang Ting, and muttered, "I'm considered a sci-fi blockbuster with a box office of one billion dollars. It's not too much of a failure. But Fang Ting, you won the second female role, you have to work hard." ! Maybe after this movie, the net worth will skyrocket!"

"Yufei, you're not bad either." Fang Ting said in relief, "The boss is someone who likes acting skills. As long as his acting skills improve, he will naturally get the boss's respect. So let's work hard together."

The night was getting dark, and the Ferrari was driving on the wide road.Wu Tao looked at An Qi who had been silent all this time and said, "Where are you taking me? Just book a hotel nearby?"

"Go to my house."

"Huh? Is this appropriate?"

"I'm Tongtong's best friend, so you dare to do something to me?"

Wu Tao fell into chaos in the wind~
