Xu Ji sneezed and rubbed his nose in the rental house in Chengdu.
"Do you have a cold?"
Xu Ji silently turned on the air conditioner.
At this time, "Goodbye, Jinhua Station" has stabilized its first position among all works in the G Station Youth Micro Film Competition.
Xu Ji felt a lot more relieved.
However, there is still less than a week left until the end of the game.
In addition to data such as playback and coin input on G station, the final score also depends on the ratings given by the judges of the competition.
You may not really get first place in the end.
But I should be able to get the top ten bonuses, which has reached Xu Ji’s previous expectations.
At least it can solve the problems of rent and survival.
"Hey, oh, I'm Xu Ji..."
......
Xu Ji hung up the phone, feeling a little strange.
Because the person who called him turned out to be a staff member of Station G.
The other party invited him to the headquarters of Station G to discuss cooperation.
Not long after Xu Ji hung up the phone, as expected, someone directly added his prestige.
Note: The person in charge of the film and television department of Station G is called Chi Jiang.
Are you planning to invest in making your own movie?
Xu Ji felt a little confused.
But the other party didn't say anything clearly. He just asked him to go to the headquarters in Shanghai for detailed discussions, and even reimbursed him for the round-trip air ticket.
Doesn’t look like a liar.
......
"Mr. Chi, are you sure you want to use a new director like Xu Ji and the others?"
"It's just a micro-movie, what can you see?"
In the newly established film and television department of G station, a group of elites poached from various video websites started to object.
"It's not confirmed yet. We'll wait until he comes to inspect it."
"New people have the benefits of being new."
"For our G station's film and television industry to develop first, we must boldly recruit these new directors. After they are trained, they will become our own team."
Chi Jiang said calmly.
"But..."
"The risk is too great!"
"Even if we cast a wide net, with so many projects approved, we are not only short of manpower, but it is not that simple to use a small one to make a big impact."
"It is better to concentrate resources and funds to create a drama with good reputation and quality, and first stabilize our reputation."
Everyone in the film and television department below was questioning it.
"Needless to say."
"Since President Cheng asked me to be the director of the film and television department, I have the final say."
"I have my own considerations."
Chi Jiang replied without any doubt.
Doesn’t he know that it would be safer to find some well-known movie stars and directors to film the first drama produced by Station G?
But in that case, how can we compete with websites like Penguin Video and Kiwi that have been deeply involved in film and television for so many years in the future?
That kind of model has long been played through by those websites and even played tricks.
A website like G Station, which focuses on self-made content by the up owner, cannot be its opponent at all.
That's why he chose to boldly hire a new director, and even planned to use all new actors.
It is to reduce costs and at the same time cast a wide net at once. As long as one drama becomes popular, it can cultivate G station's own team.
......
Xu Ji didn't expect that he would come to Shanghai again in such a short time.
Last time I came to see Sha Yetong for some food and drinks.
This time, I was invited by Station G.
Although "Goodbye, Jinhua Station" became a hit, Xu Ji was also prepared for someone to approach him to invest in the filming.
But before the Youth Micro Film Competition ended, big capital companies like G Station appeared, which he had not expected before.
Of course, Xu Ji is just guessing now, and we still have to see what the person at G station said when he met him.
Speaking of which, Sha Yetong seems to be able to contact the outside world soon. Xu Ji plans to stay in Shanghai for two more days, and then he can also meet him by the way.
"It's quite impressive."
Xu Ji found the headquarters of Station G according to the address given by the other party.
It's almost the same time as agreed.
After looking at his phone, Xu Ji walked in.
"Mr. Chi?"
"Please wait a moment."
When Xu Ji saw Chi Jiang for the first time, he was actually a little surprised that the other person was not that old.
Previously, Xu Ji thought that the person in charge of G station’s film and television department would be an uncle over forty years old.
But now that we have met, he looks like an elite in his early thirties.
While Xu Ji was looking at Chi Jiang, he was also looking at this young man who could film "Goodbye, Jinhua Station".
Chi Jiang knew very well that Xu Ji was not very old, but he did not expect that Xu Ji would be so handsome.
Even if you debut and become a star, there won’t be any sense of disobedience.
"Hello, Director Xu, let's sit down and chat."
"Hello, Mr. Chi."
After the two briefly greeted each other, Xu Ji sat down in Chi Jiang's office.
Chi Jiang looked at Xu Ji's body and cheap clothes, and simply judged Xu Ji's current economic situation, and became more confident in this cooperation.
"Director Xu, have you just graduated from college?"
Xu Ji nodded.
"It has been almost four months since I graduated from the Directing Department of Chengdu Film Academy."
Chi Jiang's expression was just as I expected.
"Since Director Xu has come all the way to our G station headquarters, I won't go around in circles and waste everyone's time."
"I wonder if Director Xu is interested in joining our G station."
Xu Ji was a little surprised after hearing what the other party said.
"Join G station?"
"I don't know what Mr. Chi means by joining..."
Chi Jiang explained: "To tell you the truth, our G station plans to officially start entering the film and television industry this year."
"Compared to Penguin Video and Kiwi, we did start relatively late, but please rest assured that we definitely attach great importance to the film and television sector."
"So if you, Director Xu, sign with our G station, we will let you direct the web drama project invested by our G station."
After Xu Ji heard Chi Jiang's words, he hesitated and said, "Mr. Chi, I think it's better to forget about joining Station G."
Chi Jiang was about to speak, but unexpectedly Xu Ji immediately said, "But we can come and talk about cooperation."
Chi Jiang didn't expect that a new director like Xu Ji, who had just graduated, would reject him so decisively.
He asked with great interest: "How to cooperate?"
Xu Ji said directly:
"With investment from Station G, I will film dramas for Station G, the kind of solo dramas."
Chi Jiang frowned after hearing Xu Ji's words.
"Then what?"
Xu Ji shook his head.
"No more."
Chi Jiang originally thought everything would go smoothly, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that he had underestimated the spirit of the young man in front of him.
They didn’t even consider signing a contract with Station G, but directly proposed a cooperation model.
He couldn't help but laugh.
"Director Xu, do you think you are a new director, why should we cooperate with you?"
Xu Ji didn't care about the other party's ridicule and said directly:
"Because your G station has just prepared to expand into the film and television sector, it needs one or more popular online dramas to increase its popularity."
"And I can just meet your needs."
At this moment, Chi Jiang suddenly felt that his choice to meet Xu Ji was completely wrong.
He can understand that some new directors in the industry have pretentious ideas, but this is the first time he has met someone like Xu Ji.
There is only one word to describe what the other party just said.
