Chapter 147(1/2)

What is the promised worry about the country and the people (two in one)

Since we are going to talk about North American distribution cooperation, we must let the publisher understand what kind of film "The Silence of the Lambs" is.

The problem is that the final editing of the video has not been completed.

Frank was surprised that Dunhuang actually agreed to let him watch the rough cut version in advance.

You should know that producers generally do not rashly put a rough cut of a movie to people, especially those like distributors who can affect the future of the movie.

It is nothing else, and it is human nature to have a first impression of something and maintain this impression.

Although most movies will have “each version is better than the previous one”, a publisher may completely lose interest in the film based on the bad first impression of the rough cut version, and he is reluctant to watch it again.

Future edited versions.

To make matters worse, publishers usually know each other and often gather to discuss. If a publisher thinks a movie is a bad movie, it may have been circulating around before the movie is finally completed.

.

It is not like there is no possibility of turning around, but it is very likely that it will ruin the opportunity to obtain high-quality distribution.

There is only one reason why Dunhuang is so "unprepared" - this movie is well made, so good that even the rough cuts that have not been produced can not hide its brilliance.

Not only for the price reduction later, he was also afraid that this guy who had no idea would make another shocking statement that would make him unable to get out of the market.

Even when I look back now, Lao Wang has to feel distressed for Frank for half a second.

He looks a little familiar with this actor, but he can't tell his name. It can be seen that he is not a very famous character in the Chinese entertainment industry; but there is no better performance than the actor-level performance. How could he not be famous?

What about the promised concern for the country and the people?

You can't say that this is a conspiracy, it is clearly an open conspiracy!

When it comes to negotiations, one party has something to ask for, but it is impossible to agree to the other party's conditions. Wouldn't it be a disadvantage in momentum?

Lao Wang's heart was ups and downs: this guy actually hid so many thoughts with his turtle punches!

That's right, this turtle punch is too strong and it's almost overturning the table.

After all, for ordinary people, doing small costs is basically a "gambling" that loses nine to nine.

Lao Wang was still speechless.

Although the five majors of Huayu and the five majors of Hollywood have been coveting each other's market for a long time, the two markets have just opened a gap, from cooperative investment lists, to joint funds, and then to independent acquisitions, the continuous upgrade plan is clamoring for the sudden escalation of the plan.

, but they only heard the sound of the stairs and no one came down.

As Wang Wei's self-question, Lao Wang's anger gradually faded.

So, you are really a verbal trick!

In response, Wang Wei stroked his chin and said, "It's not that you can't do anything. To strengthen yourself is the best way to serve the country."

——Frank, the heroine in this movie, knows that it is the muse of director Wang Wei!

——The debut work of these two people, "Beiping Holiday", was not released in North America, but the DVD sold quite well. With its unconventional beauty and temperament, this actress is also well-known in a certain range in North America.

It's right.

The bright blue eyes were filled with penetration and evil spirits, as if they had the magic power to see through everything, cold, calm, but also crazy!

Lao Wang was stunned!

It was probably the first time he encountered such a "honest person" who spoke all the "truths".

"No, that's not as simple as digging the foundation. I'm even more afraid that Dunhuang will suffer from 'introduction and issuance dependence', and since then life and death will be held by others." Wang Wei said seriously.

"You guys, don't participate in any negotiations in the future. This time I'm lucky, and I haven't been ruined by you. I can't have such luck next time!"

When he said with this look, "I ate the human liver with broad beans and red wine", the visual impact made Frank lean back involuntarily.

Dunhuang's distribution ability is not unlimited. With Wang Wei's eyes on choosing films, he will introduce one movie and make a lot of money. How comfortable it is to make money while lying down. Who wants to make a movie by himself?

In this way, will your own production ability be useless?

——No matter how you look at this movie, it has the value of introduction and distribution, that's enough. No matter how much you think about it, I'm sorry for my poor salary.

Wang Wei said without much care: "Nothing needs to be done, which onion we are!"

Frank glanced at Wang Wei secretly and raised his evaluation of him.

“It’s really good!”

In this movie, the male protagonist's eyes - when the female protagonist talks to him in prison, he gives several close-up shots and close-ups of his eyes - when his eyes fill the screen, it makes people straight

If you look at it for more than three seconds, you will feel a shiver.

Without any show-off skills, a few simple and restrained shots clearly create an unsettling atmosphere, and explain the character's status and personality in as short as possible.

"And this guy really made a masterpiece!"

Can this be the same thing?

It’s fine, but you can just talk nonsense as much as you like; but in business negotiations, who is not careful about his words and actions? Is this the time for nonsense?

There are more Hollywood blockbusters introduced, including some domestic film companies that are not strong enough, and those second- and third-tier directors who must need to generate profits through one movie after another to obtain financial support for their subsequent production plans,

A considerable number of people will definitely lose investment in the next movie under this impact.

But soon, the clip that really made Frank feel wonderful and even stunning came-

There is no way. In the hot land of North America, people generally have the spirit of "knowing that there is a tiger in the mountains, but they tend to go to the tiger mountain", and they are particularly fond of all kinds of terrifying monster images.

The director still has no show of skills. If he takes apart, each set of shots is actually not very new, but the director uses his rich imagination to express their impact, which shows his level of control over the shots.

.

——I am working for capitalists, not devoted to maintaining world peace for capitalists. Even if I am attracting wolves into the house, as long as I can increase my performance, I don’t care who he aims his claws at!

While expressing his praise for Wang Wei's directorial ability, Frank secretly evaluated the release value of this film-

——Yes, he has evaluated it. This film has a very high distribution value in North America.

The completion level afterwards is not that high, lacking dubbing and music, and many places obviously need fine cutting, but there are still many shots that left a particularly deep impression on Frank.

"No, you dare not."

But introducing Hollywood blockbuster releases is not just a business, but also a very complicated issue.

Therefore, if Dunhuang also joins the introduction and issuance business, to a certain extent, it is equivalent to digging its own foundation.

The wonderful performance, wonderful scenes, and rhythm are slightly lengthy because they have not been carefully cut, but even the rough cut can be said to be relaxed and relaxed;

In terms of plot content arrangement, the main and secondary lines are formed; and they are very good at using metaphor techniques to express emotions, with a strong horror atmosphere. Hitchcock-style suspense techniques make the plot confusing, and the fierce dramatic conflicts also make the film entertaining;

In addition to being a very outstanding entertainment film that combines horror and detectives, the spiritual confrontation of the protagonists and the philosophy revealed in dialogue, and the sharp contrast between "angels and devils" makes the film full of artistic nature...

Recalling the other party's slightly guilty reaction, Lao Wang was immediately distracted: "Good guy, you're afraid you've got it all. Should we do something?"

Dunhuang has started with small companies and small projects, but no one cares about it.

The detailed terms of course require further negotiation, but the initial purpose of the meeting was achieved.

He was really surprised when he realized it!

“What a wonderful performance!”

...

However, he did not show it on his face.

The veins on Lao Wang's temples all jumped up.

A director who is well versed in Western culture can promote Western values ​​in his works; but he can also deconstruct Western values ​​in his works and turn them into a sharp blade aimed at the Western world.

In particular, he found that the actor's wonderful performance continued-

It is said that "the eyes are the window of the soul." Frank likes to see an actor's performance and looks at their eyes language.

In addition to the male protagonist, the female protagonist's eye scenes are becoming more and more eye-catching.

Frank silently recited his English name "Hannibal", and he could imagine how popular he was in North America.

"Whether ideological infiltration or the use of intervention to protect or open up the market, it is often the same as you and you are tacitly involved."

"Haha, two-way release, it sounds like honey, do you dare to eat it?"

Sending Frank away with a smile on his face, Wang Chuanqi turned around and his face changed toward Wang Wei—

In fact, Frank is right. This year is not possible, and next year may not be possible, but as long as Dunhuang maintains its current momentum, it is not difficult to get the qualification to introduce blockbusters from Hollywood; and as long as you ensure a certain level of vision to choose movies, this is also a good idea.

A good business to make a fortune.

The five major things in the head may not be cared about, but Dunhuang, which is based on the middle and lower levels, must be cared about.

"So, we can take advantage of the opportunity of "The Lamb" being released in North America and send people to explore the way to see if we can acquire a small film company."

Of course, it does not mean that Hollywood blockbusters can only be kept out, but that they should give time and opportunities to allow more middle and lower-level filmmakers to grow up.

Well, Frank didn't have many surprises. Wang Wei is not a novice after all, so this can only be considered his normal level.

For example, the beginning of a video with a high degree of completion—

"This maturity is really not like the work of a young man!"
To be continued...
