Chapter 33 Small circle promotion meeting

"To put it simply, this is a membership-only club that is not open to the public. Non-member guests must be brought in by members. My car was in front just now, and they already knew my membership information from the license plate number."

"Today I'm here to show you, but it's not about the environment or high consumption. I'm not that bored yet." Wen Qianyi led Li Yan inside, as if she was afraid that he would misunderstand, she explained in a low voice with a smile, and informed

The purpose of his visit: "We will see a lot of people later."

"Are you really meeting clients?" Li Yan followed her into the elevator and kept looking at the girls in uniforms who half-bowed, smiled, and whispered hello when he saw them. Wen Qianyi next to her was a more outstanding beauty, but it was inconvenient to stare at them.

, the mm here will not be seen in vain.

"It's an informal, small-scale promotion meeting like a party." Wen Qianyi's voice was a little lower. When she entered the elevator, there were no other guests, but there was an elevator lady wearing a uniform similar to that of a stewardess.

After Wen Qianyi mentioned the floor, the elevator lady agreed gently and pressed the button for them, keeping a polite smile on her face.

Li Yan was a little speechless. What can be saved by saying and pressing? He also hired a person to press the elevator button! However, although it is unnecessary, it also creates jobs. I just wonder whether these elevator girls will be molested by male guests?

Coming out of the elevator, Li Yan observed the surrounding environment and asked: "Is this a grand promotion? Am I dressed too casually?"

Wen Qianyi laughed softly and said: "It doesn't matter, they are the ones who recommended it to us. As an investor representative who came to inspect, you are barefoot and shorts. As long as you can come in and you are sure that you are not pretending, they will not dare to look down upon you."

"Investors?"

"That's right! When you gave me an interview last time, didn't you ask two questions about movie investment? I think it's interesting, so I brought you here to check it out. Maybe we can work on a movie investment project. Wait a moment

There will be some producers who will introduce their plans to us, and maybe they will bring directors, stars, etc. You are already a big boss, so you shouldn't be as excited as a star-struck person, right?" Wen Qianyi winked at him.

Only then did Li Yan understand why she felt there was no need to remind her. She probably thought she had research in this area.

"This... I need to clarify. Last time I was just talking nonsense. I don't know anything about investing in movies."

"Why are you rushing to shirk your responsibilities? You don't have to pay, and you don't have to sign the contract immediately." Wen Qianyi rolled her eyes at him, and then came to a private room, and the waiter at the door opened the door for them immediately.

Li Yan was right when he thought about it. With her here, the company would definitely not suffer. Even if he wanted to mess around, he would be restricted.

As soon as you enter, there are four uniformed girls standing at the door with polite smiles, so as not to disturb other people, but enough to make you feel respectful and gentle to say hello.

Wen Qianyi ignored them and walked directly inside. Li Yan was a colleague, not a male companion, so she stayed with them without getting too close.

This is a very large space, a multi-functional banquet hall. There are already many guests inside, sitting or standing, chatting in low voices in twos and threes.

When the two of them came in, apart from the uniformed ladies accompanying them to greet them, quite a few other guests also looked over.

The girls who work as waiters here are all carefully selected, and they must put on makeup carefully to go to work. With their uniforms, they can be regarded as beauties among ordinary people. Among the guests, there are many beauties, including several

She is a female star. However, Wen Qianyi's aura is very strong. She walked in slowly and had not yet integrated into the environment. She immediately made other beauties pale in comparison.

Beauty and temperament can be seen from the outside, but popularity depends on how many people know her in the circle. After observation, no one knew who Wen Qianyi was. So, some people turned to look at Wen Qianyi.

That man with a somewhat popular temperament may be the beauty he brought, but after reading it, they still looked at each other. This man had never been seen before.

A certain director who was discussing something with someone frowned, called a uniformed girl over, and whispered to her to go over and check to see if the two people had gone to the wrong door. Of course, most people would not do this.

Yes, maybe it was arranged by some boss.

mm is a bit embarrassed. Those who can come in must be accompanied by members, and naturally they will not barge in casually, so they will not casually ask the identity of the guests. But they can also see it. It seems that most people do not recognize them.

indivual.

After a casual glance, Wen Qianyi asked Li Yan to sit down on an empty sofa and asked the waiter who followed her to bring her a drink, while Li Yan asked for a glass of water.

"Look, in addition to the producers, there are also some directors and planners. Those celebrities are invited by them to support the scene. To put it mildly, they are here to accompany the guests. They are usually trying to win actors for their new movies." Wen Qianyi teased.

Tiaoxiu, looking at those famous filmmakers indifferently.

"They are all third-rate people. I don't know any of them." Li Yan took the water brought by his uniformed sister and thanked her gently with a smile: "Thank you, has anyone ever said that your hands are very white and beautiful?"

"No. Thank you." The girl in uniform stepped back with a professional and polite smile.

Looking at his conversation, Wen Qianyi raised her eyebrows slightly: "Third-rate? What do you think are first-rate?"

"It has to be Zhang Yimou or Feng Xiaogang."

"Aren't you talking nonsense? They are two of the most successful people in business. If they just make a movie, as soon as the news gets out, there will naturally be a bunch of companies rushing to place ads and sponsors. Do you still need to attract investment by yourself? You need to promote it like this.

They are those who are famous but have no box office appeal, or whose box office is unstable, have no reputation, and are delusional about making blockbusters."

Li Yan was noncommittal. He was a very famous movie star. He also knew that there were far fewer directors. Even if he knew their names, he didn't know what they were like. As for the majority of producers today, he didn't recognize them, so he treated them as unknown.

To say third-rate is putting it mildly.

"Is there a new director?"

"Of course there is. It is the most difficult for new directors to attract investment. They must find ways to promote themselves. As long as they have connections in such activities, they will definitely come to take advantage of the opportunity and try their luck. However, they are often stupid and naive, so not many investors should value them."

Wen Qianyi sipped her drink and spread common sense to him.

"Don't new directors have new ideas and creativity? There are flaws and cheapness, why..." This was the first time Li Yan heard people being described as silly and naive. Even new directors still have the heart to pursue art.

, you can’t bury people like this.

"Mr. Wang from Huayi Brothers said that some new directors came to him for investment. They felt that they were very creative and promising. He asked what the production budget was. The other person said modestly: Our investment in this film is very small, only 35 million.

That's enough. If you were Mr. Wang, would you think he was stupid and naive?" Wen Qianyi asked with a smile.

Li Yan was able to think of this topic on the spur of the moment that day, and he only knew a little bit about it. This was indeed a bit much.

"The production fee is 35 million, and the post-production cost is 15 million, which adds up to 50 million. Don't think it's too much, Hollywood has a publicity fee that is equivalent to the production fee. 500 million will need more than 100 million in box office to make back the money. Several new directors

Can it be achieved? For mainland films, over 10 million is already a medium investment.

We must know that "Crazy Stone", the first low-cost box office miracle that year, with an output ratio of ten to one, Andy Lau only supported Ning Hao's 2 million investment, plus he sold the iron for hundreds of thousands, and it was completed. That's it.

Miracle, the box office is only 2,000 million. I want to be a director, but I don’t understand the industry data. I listen to the promoters’ boasts and the media’s exaggerated reports. I really thought that any blockbuster would cost hundreds of millions or tens of millions of dollars.

Investors all have money and many of them are stupid?”

Li Yan didn't pay much attention to the content of her comments, but was more interested in her attitude. He laughed in a low voice, "No wonder you dare to claim to be the best in business, you always have a capitalist mentality! If someone comes to us for art later,

If you want to invest in the film, will you directly ridicule them?"

"Are you making fun of me?" Wen Qianyi rolled her eyes at him, and then said seriously: "You are my partner, and you are not here to play tonight. Pay attention to your studies at all times! A qualified salesman should always put the company's profits first.

One person! A rising tide lifts all boats. Only when the company makes profits and you are talented can you be qualified to receive more commission rewards."

Li Yan didn't care, he didn't need to rely on commissions from completed business to obtain high income. But Wen Qianyi was so thoughtful, so she could only look like she was being taught.

At this time, he noticed that Wen Qianyi's eyes with a charming smile narrowed slightly, and then he heard a voice behind him.
