"And the copyright of Fairy Sword II has been sold to Station G?"
As soon as Congzhu and Su Liangcai arrived at Tongji Entertainment's studio, they heard the news that Youman told them, but they still didn't react.
Su Liangcai had already made sufficient preparations and felt that Tudou Video would definitely be able to win the copyright this time.
There has never been a time when royalties have been so fully prepared as this time.
But it feels like a fist hitting cotton.
Chi Jiang doesn’t talk about martial ethics!
He actually came to Chengdu earlier than a few others.
In other words, before "The Meaning of Travel" was broadcast, Station G had already come to discuss copyright!
......
Naturally, Youman will not disclose the news that Tongji Entertainment has reached an in-depth cooperation with Station G.
Although relevant announcements will definitely be issued in the future.
But it’s better not to reveal it in advance now.
Telling the two of them that the copyright of Sword and Sword II was sold to Station G is also to avoid too much entanglement between the two sides in the subsequent Qiu Guo and Tudou videos.
Of course, these two people arrived quickly enough.
When the vice president of Penguin Video arrived, not to mention Chi Jiang, even Cong Zhu and Su Liangcai had already left Chengdu.
He was also specifically thinking about organizing the language to see if he could resolve some conflicts with Xu Ji.
But in the end, no one was seen.
......
As for Xu Ji, the reason why he hurriedly left Chengdu after signing a cooperation agreement with Station G, represented by Chi Jiang, was really not to avoid the three major video websites.
Xu Ji did not know in advance that Congzhu and others would come.
Mainly because although the filming of "Soldier Assault" has not officially started, there is still a lot of advance preparation work that needs to be done.
So I went directly to the capital to meet with Hu Lan, the director of the Military Region’s Cultural and Propaganda Department.
"Director Xu, are you here?"
This is the third time the two have met, although they have not met many times.
But Hu Lan still looks very familiar.
As a soldier, although he is now responsible for the cultural and publicity work of the military region, Hu Lan still has a relatively straightforward character.
Your likes and dislikes for a person will be shown openly.
Compared with some people in the entertainment industry that he had met before, Hu Lan obviously admires Xu Ji, a young director.
Perhaps a big reason is because Xu Ji wrote a script like "Soldier Assault".
Some of the crew directors who came to discuss filming or co-production, although their words seemed more flattering.
But on the contrary, it was that kind of behavior that made Hu Lan not very fond of contacting these people.
Hu Lan liked Xu Ji's neither humble nor arrogant attitude from beginning to end.
"Minister Hu, the reason for coming here this time is actually "Soldier Assault". We still need help from the army for some preparations before filming."
Xu Ji said.
After all, it is a drama jointly produced by the Military Region and the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, so Xu Ji has nothing to be embarrassed to say.
Anyway, let’s look at the conditions first. As for what we can agree with and what we can’t agree with in the end, that’s a matter for later.
But what I didn't expect was that Hu Lan agreed to several conditions put forward by Xu Ji without hesitation.
The first thing is the filming location.
Hu Lan directly asked his soldiers to take Xu Ji to several of their garrison points to inspect.
And because he had read the script of "Soldier Assault", Hu Lan even took the initiative to introduce some parts to Xu Ji that he personally felt were appropriate.
There is also something about letting the actors who play the main roles in "Soldier Assault" enter the military zone in advance to experience and train.
It was also agreed to.
Hu Lan even found an old platoon leader for the actors who was said to be very good at training new recruits.
......
"Join the army for training?"
In a hotel guest conference room, Chen Kang subconsciously repeated what Xu Ji had just said to himself.
The actors who had originally gathered in Beijing, thinking that filming was about to start, were a little surprised when they heard the news.
But no one thought it was a big deal, and they were even quite satisfied with the arrangement.
Especially Ji Yiyang at this time, he had the idea of becoming a soldier before.
But due to various reasons, we were unable to do so.
At this time, I heard that I could enter the army in advance to experience before the filming started, and I suddenly became excited.
As for some other official actors and actresses, they all think it is normal to experience before filming begins.
This point was also determined from the beginning.
Although there is no need to worry about the acting skills of these official actors, after all, they need to play soldiers this time.
If you don’t have any relevant military experience, it’s really easy for the performance to be superficial.
Especially the temperament of a soldier is essential.
Requires close experience and learning.
So before the official filming started, these main actors all started temporary military training.
......
Although they didn't take it seriously, when the real training began, the main actors of "Soldier Assault" realized that they had thought it was simple.
The soldier responsible for training everyone actually means it!
The training is exactly the same as the training for new recruits in the military camp.
Ji Yiyang, who was looking forward to it very much, collapsed on the bed after the first day and felt sore all over his head. His mind was filled with wonders as to why he had looked forward to this training before.
As for the others, except for Liu Baofeng, who plays Xu Sanduo, he is slightly better because of his good physical fitness.
Some other official actors are also miserable.
Although Ji Yiyang lacks exercise, he is still young, a young man in his twenties.
After many of them reach the age of thirty, their physical functions in all aspects are naturally no longer as good as before.
In fact, the official actors selected by Xu Ji can barely be considered young actors.
They are all able to endure hardships for filming.
Although they complained, they still persisted.
They are not real soldiers, but they are professional actors.
After reading the script given by Xu Ji, everyone wanted to play the role they got.
I also know that experiencing military life in advance will be really helpful for the subsequent performances.
So they are taking this training seriously.
As for Xu Ji, he did not continue to stay in the army with the actors.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Before the official filming of "Soldier Assault" began, in addition to selecting locations with a group of assistant directors, he also needed to do some things.
......
In Rongcheng, Xu Ji went to the capital this time and took away half of the original Sword and Sword 2 crew.
The rest of the people stayed.
Pang Er was a little depressed at this time, because Xu Ji left so suddenly, and he didn't even have time to ask him for the script for the new drama he was going to shoot.
Now every day, people come to ask, "Soldier Assault" crew has begun preparations to start filming.
When will their new drama be officially approved?
Pang Er also wanted to start a project, but he couldn't come up with a script.
"Brother Pang, why don't you call Director Xu and ask?"
Yang Anran on the side also asked.
Because Pang Er personally asked for people, he could only follow the crew waiting to join Pang Er.
"I just asked yesterday."
"Director Xu said he is already writing."
Pang Er replied.
But Yang Anran is still not at ease.
Very early on, Director Xu had already said that the script was being written.
I don’t know how long it will take to board.
......
Not just the crew.
Even several actors from Tongji Entertainment felt very embarrassed.
Especially An Cailing.
That boy Ji Yiyang secretly went to find Director Xu.
Then I got the role in Xu Ji’s new drama.
I should have been like Ji Yiyang back then.
"I've been reading some scripts sent by directors recently."
"The result is that they are all idol dramas with crappy scripts."
An Cailing complained helplessly.
In fact, when she was at Phoenix Entertainment, if An Cailing could get these scripts, she would definitely be very happy.
But since she acted in two films directed by Xu Ji, she has become picky about the scripts.
At the same time, he also clearly understands the importance of the script to the actors and the entire drama.
"Aren't you worried at all?"
An Cailing looked at Ran Bai and Zhu Zinan, who were very calm, with some confusion.
Zhu Zinan replied: "It's normal to have no scenes, I'm used to it."
But Ran Bai comforted him and said:
"Don't worry, didn't you say that Director Xu will give Director Pang Er the script for his new play?"
"Maybe there will be a role suitable for us by then."
After An Cailing heard this, she nodded.
Although Pang Er is a director, An Cailing feels a little tortured.
But the director's quality is not weak, and the script was written by Xu Ji himself.
I still really want to participate in An Cailing's role.
......
At the same time, Youman arranged some work for Tongji Entertainment.
I bought a plane ticket to Shanghai.
Speaking of which, Youman has never returned to the G station headquarters in Shanghai since he became the producer of "The Best of Us".
Even the workstations and rental houses left at the headquarters had not been cleaned up yet.
After staying in Chengdu for more than a year, Youman didn't feel much.
But now that I suddenly returned to Shanghai, I found that I was not used to it.
Youman felt a little emotional when he saw young people in professional attire walking on the road.
When she first graduated, her dream was to take root in a big city like Shanghai and start her own career.
Later, I moved around to a few companies, working hard, and finally entered a well-known Internet company like G Station.
When I am preparing to show my talents in the film and television department that has been established for a long time.
Unexpectedly, things suddenly changed.
Today, Youman has completely changed his original thoughts.
My previous obsession with Shanghai seemed to have suddenly disappeared.
This time I came here, in addition to some things Xu Ji had arranged for her before.
She is also planning to return the small rental house that has been vacant for more than a year.
The company's workstations have also been tidied up to free up space.
In the future, there may not be many opportunities to come to this city.
......
"Xiaoman, why are you back?"
Chi Jiang was also very surprised when he saw Youman appearing in the company.
"Mr. Chen, okay, I'll be right over."
Just when Youman was about to speak, Chi Jiang suddenly received a call.
Then he left in a hurry.
"Xiaoman, I have something to do. Please wait for me here for a while. I will come back after I finish handling it."
......
Youman looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar company.
Only then did I realize that there were a lot of new faces.
And some people who had no dealings with Chi Jiang before have disappeared.
It seems that Mr. Chi has now taken back control of the department.
Youman said with some emotion.
Chi Jiang was the last department leader to join the company, and Youman was also a new employee who joined the company.
Youman naturally became Chi Jiang's side.
"Man...Mr. You, are you back?!!"
While packing his things, Youman's former colleagues saw Youman and came up to say hello with some surprise.
"It's okay, just call me Sister Man."
Looking at this young girl who entered the company with him at the time, Youman said with a smile.
She just realized that when she came back this time, she was already the vice president of the department.
When the girl saw that Youman was not putting on airs, she was very happy and started chatting with her.
......
"Since the vice presidents of the department resigned, we are finally more comfortable here."
"Otherwise I would even want to resign."
"Those people like to talk about seniority and connections."
......
Hearing the other party's praise of Chi Jiang, Youman nodded in agreement.
In Youman's view, G station's film and television department is fortunate to have Chi Jiang.
Otherwise, everyone would have been laid off long ago due to losses.
"But the current situation is not optimistic."
"I heard that Mr. Chi is making big moves this time. In order to support Mr. Chi, the chairman has quarreled with some senior executives several times."
"Mr. Chi was under great pressure and even issued a military order."
"Let the number of members on our G station exceed 30 million within the next year."
Hearing what the other party said, Youman frowned in confusion.
Is there such a thing?
Chi Jiang never mentioned it to her.
"It is said to be related to Tongji Entertainment."
"Sister Man, haven't you been in contact with people from their company in Chengdu?"
Youman shook his head absentmindedly.
No information about the cooperation between the two parties was disclosed.
"I'm not sure either."
......
"Xiaoman, let's continue, why did you come back this time?"
Chi Jiang returned to his office and found Youman.
Youman took out a document from his bag and handed it to Chi Jiang.
"Mr. Chi, this time I... Director Xu asked me to give you a plan."
Youman was ready to say that he wrote this plan himself.
Fortunately, I changed my tune quickly.
Xu Ji is very busy, and the planning this time was all based on the other party's related ideas, and then Youman wrote it.
"Suspense theater?"
Chi Jiang looked at the text on the document with a strange expression.
"Will Xuji Company produce so many suspense dramas in the future?"
Chi Jiang asked hesitantly.
Youman nodded.
“He said he could let Station G publicize and build momentum first.”
"This is a surprise for you, Mr. Chi."
"Suspense theater can create a relatively solid reputation for G station."
Chi Jiang was stunned for a moment after hearing Youman's words.
In fact, he had no idea.
After all, suspense dramas are niche dramas.
If we really want to use this as the main film and television layout of the next G station film and television area, the risk is very high.
But the other party is Xu Ji.
"The Beginning" is a suspense drama, and the hot scenes after it aired are still fresh in my mind.
"Mr. Chi, you don't have to worry."
"Although Xu Ji seems unreliable on the surface, there is no doubt about his ability."
"Also, for the promotion of this suspense theater, I...Tongji Entertainment will also cooperate with G Station."
Chi Jiang nodded.
Now he can only believe Xu Ji.
The bet has been made anyway, there is no room for regret.
