The old aunt's reminder is still very useful. There are more thieves on commercial streets. This is indeed a common problem in all provinces and cities.
Since Hengdian came out, in the capital, Wu Di has always been at work and at the old Zhang's house. Occasionally there will be entertainment activities, and the venues are fixed, so there is no need to be prepared.
As for the wallet, to be honest, for someone who has traveled through the era of mobile payment, it is indeed a bit unfamiliar.
So much so that I often ignore its existence and just want to take out my mobile phone to pay.
Since they are not aware of the importance of wallets, they will not be prepared to have someone steal their wallets. However, seeing the three wallets in the hands of the little boy, it can only be said that there are still many unprotected people in this world.
It is impossible to order all ordinary people to live on guard just because of the existence of thieves.
This is simply not realistic.
"Did you really get it back?"
"incredible!"
After Wu Di came over, he discovered that several old friends were indeed waiting for him there, and they also thoughtfully ordered him a cup of milk tea.
"how?"
"Do you still hope that I can't find you back?"
"I can tell you, all my money is in this wallet. Without this, we wouldn't know where to get dinner tonight."
"Still want to eat Japanese food?"
"What?"
"Is there such a thing?"
"Give me your wallet quickly and let me see if there is any money?"
When money was mentioned, Han Jingjing's eyes instantly lit up.
He grabbed Wu Di's wallet and started counting the money. It was really a sight to see the money.
"Do you know how much money is in there?"
Jingjing stopped: "It seems that I really don't know."
"How many are there?"
"I see, there aren't many."
Although they are all hundred-yuan bills, there are not enough for ten. Is this small amount of money enough to eat Japanese food?
Han Jingjing suddenly felt that someone was a little unreliable.
"Do not worry!"
"No cash, no card yet?"
Really, if you don’t have a mobile phone, you don’t have a card?
Although it is not as convenient as a mobile phone, it is still a convenient payment method.
As long as you have money, you can rest assured. Han Jingjing followed Wu Di in stride, as if the boss has money and the followers have face.
The two gentlemen, Da Fei and Xiao Qi, stood there and did not respond for a moment. Why?
This little girl is deliberately harming us!
Is there really any Japanese food to eat?
If I had known better, I wouldn’t have drank so much milk tea!
hateful!
My stomach is almost full, can I still eat?
The two men looked at each other now, both hating Han Jingjing extremely. They were both this little girl, and they were planning to treat them to milk tea. As a result, the milk tea was bought, but she didn't take a few sips herself, but she persuaded them to drink it.
More than half a cup.
Nowadays, there are all kinds of Japanese food, so high-end, but still so expensive. Regardless of whether it tastes good or not, it is expensive anyway.
As a result, now I don’t have the stomach to enjoy it at all.
What a pity.
Of course Han Jingjing would not sympathize with them.
What to do?
The milk tea was bought with his money, but they still dislike it. Drinking too much milk tea can make you gain weight. Is there anyone who doesn't know this now?
Who made them drink so much?
I am greedy, but now I have no stomach to eat anything else, so I am still chewing, who should I rely on?
"Boss Wu, you are so brave. I thought you would return without success!" Han Jingjing leaned against Wu Di and said shoulder to shoulder.
Wu Di glanced at her sideways: "Can't you just expect me to do better?"
"Tell me, is it worth it for me to accept this movie?"
Suddenly, Wu Di wanted to hear Han Jingjing's opinion. After all, he was considered a handsome guy. If he became famous in the future, he would be considered a handsome idol.
He hates the term "little fresh meat", so even if he is classified into this type in the future, Wu Di doesn't want to call himself this.
What kind of meat? It seems to be a meat seller.
"What are you asking me for?"
"Aren't there professional agents?"
"Brother Da Fei thinks it's good, so that's good."
What a good thing!
This woman pretends to be ignorant again.
"Do you really think Da Fei has good vision?"
"Isn't it bad?"
"If you feel bad, why do you continue to let him be your agent?"
"It can't be just for brotherly love."
"Yes, and no."
This time Han Jingjing's question seemed to have a little meaning, so Wu Di planned to answer it seriously.
This is not only for Yuan Dafei, but also for Han Jingjing. After all, on this issue, Jingjing and Dafei's positions are naturally similar.
The two of them are on the same front.
Explaining clearly earlier can help them get rid of doubts earlier and start working with him seriously.
Han Jingjing blinked her bright eyes and listened to his answer carefully.
"I have been cooperating with you all the time, of course, because you are my closest friends. I have been drifting in Hengdian for several years and have not made many reliable friends. Only you two are the ones who gave me your support when I was in trouble.
Try to help me."
"People say that we are friends in times of adversity, and we are friends in times of adversity. I trust you, so even if your business abilities are not that outstanding, or you are lazy from time to time, I don't care, as long as
Just don’t let your guard down at the critical moment.”
Han Jingjing stuck out her tongue in response to Wu Di's accusation of laziness.
It seems that there is indeed a little bit of it.
Wu Di ignored her and kept to himself and said: "Besides, I think that compared to ability, the most important quality for an agent or an assistant is loyalty."
"You see, being an artist is a highly exposed profession. Everything, including food, clothing, housing and transportation, is likely to be shared on a public platform. Moreover, fans and passers-by who share it all take it for granted.
of."
"At the same time, artists are also a profession that needs to protect privacy. There are clear requirements for what can be shared and what is absolutely not allowed. Because of the high exposure of artists,
Their personal privacy is very vulnerable to attack."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "So, as an artist, I must protect my privacy and not let it become a weakness for others to attack, so I need to rely on you."
"Jingjing, you and Dafei are people I trust very much. I believe that even if we have different development concepts in the future, even if we part ways, you will not harm me."
"This is the whole reason why I choose to cooperate with you for a long time."
One is an ideal reason, and the other is a practical reason. Wu Di’s words have made it very clear.
Many cases in reality show that the people who are most likely to attack an artist are often the people closest to him.
The closer you are, the easier it is to grasp the most privacy and the most handles. Once such a close relationship is broken, these privacy and handles are likely to become the other party's tool to destroy the artist's image.
Therefore, from this perspective, with Han Jingjing and Yuan Dafei protecting each other, Wu Di's personal privacy is still very stable.
No matter how the future develops, with their characters, they will never harm him.
"Besides, we are all brothers, and opportunities must always be given. Now I still have work under my hands, so it doesn't matter whether they work hard or not. You see, if I don't push, Da Fei will find the next script too, right?"
?”
Speaking of the new script, Han Jingjing became interested: "By the way, Boss Wu, do you really want to make this movie?"
"Isn't this nonsense? If I didn't want to take pictures, would I still come to explore the road with you?"
"how?"
"You think the future of this movie is unclear?"
Han Jingjing nodded: "One is that the cost is too small. Can such a movie really go to theaters?"
"I know that Ms. Youlan has the whole story. There should be no problem in investing in the film, but if you want it to go to theaters, a good distribution company is also necessary."
"The theater chain is in deep trouble, and it's definitely not the case that you can get good film schedules with strong investment."
As soon as he said this, Wu Di looked at Han Jingjing with admiration: "Okay, I didn't expect that you don't know anything about movies."
"Of course."
"I really don't understand anything, how dare I be your assistant?"
Wu Di: It seems that this assistant does not need to know anything about movies...
Not a broker.
"Look, for the two movies you made before, you only had to pay for it and star in it yourself. You didn't have to worry too much. That's because those two movies were originally considered big productions. In addition to investment, distribution had already been completed.
The joints have been opened up, so the theater chain will naturally give it face."
"Furthermore, those two movies have big names participating, whether they are Hua Ge, Sisi or Cifang, they are either popular stars or veteran superstars. They are the focus of the theater chain's attention.
Generally speaking, these people all have their own box office base."
"With them here, we can save more than half of the money spent on promotion and filming."
"But, look at what's in this video?"
Han Jingjing raised her fingers and began to list the shortcomings of Labyrinth: "First, the subject matter is limited. You know this. This type of movie is originally not popular in the film market. Even if it has a good reputation, it is only available online.
Those literary and artistic young people are very loud, but serious people who go to the cinema to watch movies have different tastes from these literary and artistic young people."
"How can they go to the cinema to watch a rural-themed movie?"
"Furthermore, it's a matter of leading the cast."
Speaking of this, Han Jingjing's eyes turned around Wu Di's body several times, and Wu Di felt that he was full of malice.
Is this...looking down on him?
"I might be able to invite you to Xiao Qi's place. I think it's quite good. At least you still have a certain reputation, which is better than that of a pure vegetarian."
"However, they definitely don't think so at the theater chain. Do you have box office appeal?"
"Even if Skin Change and The Master were released, you wouldn't have much fame and you would still have no appeal."
"Then what you mean is that you don't want me to accept this movie?"
Before Han Jingjing could finish her reasons, Wu Di interrupted her.
Jingjing shook her head hesitantly: "That's not what I meant."
"I have also read the script. The story is indeed very good. It can be considered a high-quality suspense script with some reasoning."
"This kind of script is very scarce in the current film market, and it does have a certain audience group."
"But, I'm always worried that once the movie is finished, will it be able to go to theaters?"
"First of all, the director is a newcomer, and it is impossible to expect him to make a difference in theaters."
"Then, we need to find a good distribution company and first of all promote the film. I think this step is even more important than investment."
"After all, as a work directed by a pure newcomer, the subject matter is not the theater chain's preference. Why would they assign it to you?"
"There are so many movies in the backlog every year. Serious monks have too much to eat. How can you possibly grab them?"
"You're right, this is indeed a problem."
If Han Jingjing hadn't reminded him, Wu Di would not have thought of this problem.
Film investment and film distribution are indeed two different things.
Negotiating with theater chains is mainly the task of the issuing company, while investment companies are often only responsible for investment, not necessarily distribution.
On this issue, skin change can set an example.
The movie "Skin Change" has received great attention since the beginning of filming. On the one hand, Zhang Feng also has face with the theaters. Without her working hard, the theaters will give up a certain amount of filming. At least,
There is absolutely no problem with going to theaters.
Furthermore, in order to achieve high box office, Zhang Feng also worked very hard and gave enough face to the theaters.
So many actors who can bring in box office revenue have been hired at once. With these actors here, the theater chain will have more confidence in the prospect of changing skins.
In other words, the difference between having a strong distribution company may be that it is only 20% of filming or 30% of filming.
In other words, no matter what, the movie "Reskin" still has a basis for filming.
Labyrinth is completely different. If it continues to maintain its current configuration, regardless of whether it can go to theaters, even if it does, 5% of the filming is considered good.
Burn high incense!
And where does the box office come from?
Isn’t it extracted from theater-produced films?
This is why theater chains are always so strong, and this is where their confidence comes from.
If the film is not made, even if it is a magical cast, the story is exquisite, and the production is excellent, the loss will still be lost.
Correspondingly, if there is a film production, a movie of average quality and not that outstanding can also achieve good box office results.
This is the current status of the film market.
After all, watching movies is a form of leisure and entertainment for modern people, and it also has certain rigid needs. Therefore, when they choose movies, they are actually not that picky.
Generally speaking, they watch whatever is shown in the cinema.
Whichever film has a higher production rate, they have a greater chance of watching a certain movie. Therefore, you can know that if there is no film production, there will be no box office.
Can the box office that other people get from 20% of their movies be compared to the box office that you get from 5% of your movies?
