Qiu Xiaobai looked at Hu Shuo in surprise. Of course, there was no need to say many words so directly. If you think about it again and look at it again, there will basically be nothing more to say.
However, in Qiu Xiaobai's view, Hu Shuo could at least talk to her. After all, the film "The Richest Man in Xihong City" does not have the conditions to guarantee a guarantee.
"Mr. Hu should know that it is difficult to secure a guaranteed distribution for your film," Qiu Xiaobai said with a serious face.
"I know."
Hu Shuo nodded.
"Then can we still chat?" Qiu Xiaobai asked.
Hu Shuo smiled: "It's not that I don't want to talk to Mr. Qiu, but I know it's difficult for us to reach a consensus. In addition, Mr. Qiu may have forgotten one thing. Our family has a theater~!"
There is nothing wrong with Hu Shuo's words. Every Wanli shopping mall is equipped with a Wanli Cinema. Currently, the "Wanli Cinema Chain" under the Wanli Group is the third largest cinema chain in the country, with 137 cinemas nationwide.
Cinema, with a total screen count of 1,541.
Every year, the box office of movies produced by Wanli Cinemas accounts for almost a quarter of the country's total box office.
It is precisely because of such strong theater support that Wanli Group established Wanli Pictures to enter the film and television industry. Unfortunately, although Wanli Pictures has a unique advantage as its owner, the quality of the films it produces and invests in has never been good.
This led Yang Wanli to want to cut off the "bad assets" of Wanli Pictures.
However, since Wanli Pictures relies on the third largest theater chain in the country, Wanli Pictures' distribution capabilities are very strong, at least not weaker than Chinese Entertainment.
Therefore, Hu Shuo can choose to have "The Richest Man in Xihong City" distributed by Wanli Pictures.
"I really forgot that Mr. Hu always has his back against the big tree so he can enjoy the shade!"
Qiu Xiaobai sighed with a smile.
Now that the conversation has reached this point, there is no need to continue the topic.
In fact, Qiu Xiaobai is not particularly optimistic about the movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City". She just believes in Hu Shuo's screenwriting ability and feels that it has the potential to become a comedy that is both small and broad.
Judging from the box office performance of Chinese-language films in the past few years, 80% of the films produced by Xiaobo and Dabo have the same characteristic, which is comedy elements. People mostly watch movies to relax, so comedies are more popular in the film market.
.
"The Richest Man in Xihong City" is exactly a comedy, preceded by the successful "Love Apartment". Therefore, Qiu Xiaobai feels that this drama may have an opportunity to make a big impact with a small one. It is based on this consideration that she wants to
She helped distribute it, but now that Hu Shuo's willingness to cooperate is not strong, she has not continued the discussion. After all, in her opinion, this film only has the potential to make a big difference.
If according to Hu Shuo's idea, she was asked to issue a guaranteed issue, Qiu Xiaobai would naturally not do it, so the topic could only end here.
However, after talking with Qiu Xiaobai, Hu Shuo had a bold idea in his mind. In fact, before Qiu Xiaobai mentioned the release just now, he had not thought about the release of the movie, but Qiu Xiaobai reminded him
Without him, although the current framework of Chuangshi Entertainment has been established, it is missing a very important link. Currently, the company does not have the ability to distribute movies.
"The Richest Man in Xihong City" is just the first movie of Chuangshi Entertainment, and there will be a second, third, and nth movie later. If there is no distribution capability, it will naturally not work.
The launch ceremony of the second season of "Love Apartment" is over, the reporters dispersed, and the filming officially started.
Since the production of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" has not yet been completed, Feng Haibo's shooting plan is to shoot the three newcomers in the first few days. When "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is completed, Sun Dasheng, Shen Kai, and Liu Xiaoxiao will join the group. , and then shoot a group scene with several leading actors together.
The first scene after the filming was started was Tang Youyou's scene. She was a small role player on the crew with an exaggerated giant sword inserted into her body, and she was studying her role with the director.
This scene appeared in the first episode of the second season of "Love Apartment". It is a presentation of Tang Youyou's identity and personality as a new member of the love apartment. It is also the first time that she, a new member, appears in front of the audience, so her performance is also Very important.
Hu Shuo also arrived at the filming site to see how Chu Yanran performed and whether she could quickly adapt to the role.
Following Feng Haibo's start, the game recorder hit the board and left the stage.
When Chu Yanran's performance began, the director who acted opposite her was a senior actor, and he had rich acting experience, so he didn't panic at all when acting for Chu Yanran.
Chu Yanran's own performance is also very good, her movements, movements, and lines are all done in one go, with almost no flaws.
What a good actor!
Hu Shuo, who was sitting behind the monitor and watching, nodded slightly.
At this time, Feng Haibo shouted "click" and turned on the first shot, one shot passed.
"The person is beautiful and the show is great! It's really good!"
Feng Haibo sighed in a low voice.
"What's the matter, are you attracted to this person?" Hu Shuo glanced at Feng Haibo.
"Purely for appreciation!" Feng Haibo chuckled.
Hu Shuo said with a serious look on his face: "Brother Bo, I really have to remind you this time, be sure to hold back, otherwise the scene will be on the hot search again before it is finished!"
"Don't worry, you can't~!"
Feng Haibo spread his hands: "The rabbit still doesn't eat the grass beside the nest!"
"Well, I guess people don't like you either!"
Hu Shuo patted Feng Haibo's shoulder gently. Although Chu Yanran was not a first-tier actress, she was relatively outstanding among second-tier actresses and had a high reputation. However, she never hyped up or paid for drafts, so, Her influence and popularity have always been tepid, and she has not yet reached the level of a first-line actress.
Feng Haibo was originally a "rising star" who had accumulated a lot of experience. Unfortunately, within a few days of becoming famous, most of his personality collapsed and a "scandal" broke out. Therefore, Hu Shuo guessed that Chu Yanran didn't like him either.
"Brother Shuo, if you say that, you really have to prove it." Feng Haibo replied with a smile.
"Just rest!"
Hu Shuo rolled her eyes at Feng Haibo and warned: "Film well and try to use your work to win back your lost popularity with the public. That's the business!"
After saying that, Hu Shuo stood up from his seat: "I'll leave the crew to you. I'll leave first."
"Going to pick up the kids so early?"
Feng Haibo looked at the time, it was just past one o'clock.
"No, something else!"
Hu Shuo waved his hand and left the set.
Half an hour later, Hu Shuo appeared at the headquarters of Wanli Group.
"Sir, who are you looking for?"
The headquarters of Wanli Group is located in the Wanli Building built by the group itself. The entire building is used by Wanli Group for its offices.
The first floor of the building was a lobby comparable to a five-star hotel. As soon as Hu Shuo entered the lobby, he was stopped by the security guard at the door.
"I'm looking for you, Mr. Yang."
Hu Shuo replied lightly.
"Mr. Yang? Which Mr. Yang?" The security guard frowned.
"Yang Yunyan."
Hu Shuo knew that it was just a matter of routine, so he replied truthfully.
"..."
Upon hearing this name, the security guard's face sank and he said in astonishment: "Yang Yunyan? You mean Mr. Yang, the president of our group??"
"Well, yes." Hu Shuo nodded.
The security guard was speechless: "Sir, not everyone can see our president. First of all, you have to make an appointment. Secondly, I have to verify your identity."
"All right……"
Hu Shuo certainly knew the rules. He actually called his wife when he came, but no one answered. He was probably in a meeting.
While Hu Shuo was talking to the security guard, a female receptionist wearing exquisite work clothes came over: "Brother Liu, what's wrong?"
"This man said he was looking for our President Yang." The security guard pointed at Hu Shuo and said speechlessly.
"oh!"
The female receptionist nodded, then looked Hu Shuo up and down, and then asked: "Sir, do you have an appointment?"
"No."
Hu Shuo shook his head.
"I'm sorry, you need to make a reservation in advance." The female receptionist had a professional smile on her face.
Hu Shuo scratched his head: "Actually, I am your Mr. Yang's husband!"
"Well……?"
Upon hearing this, the female receptionist and the security guard were both stunned.
Then, the security guard laughed: "Brother, can you show off your bragging skills? If you were the husband of our president, I would still be our president's younger brother!"
The female receptionist was obviously much more educated than the security guard: "Sir, you can't joke around. If you don't have an appointment, please go back first and come back when you make an appointment."
"..."
Hu Shuo was speechless. He looked at the receptionist and then at the security guard: "Are you two new here?"
Hu Shuo also worked at the Wanli Group headquarters for a long time, and all the old employees knew him.
"Sir, I have been working here for three years." The female receptionist said.
"I've been here for more than two years," the security guard said.
After listening to the answers for two years, Hu Shuo couldn't help but sigh, no wonder he didn't recognize himself.
"What happened?"
At this time, another man wearing a security uniform came from a distance.
"Captain, this man said he is the husband of our President Yang, isn't he making trouble!"
The visitor is He Jiaqiang, captain of the first team of the Wanli Group's Security Department.
"What!?"
He Jiaqiang snorted coldly and quickened his pace. However, when he got closer and saw Hu Shuo's appearance clearly, he was surprised. Then, his face was filled with a smile: "Mr. Hu, it's really you!!"
He Jiaqiang is an old employee of Wanli Group. When Hu Shuo left, he was still an ordinary security guard, but now he has become the security captain.
However, upon hearing what He Jiaqiang said, the female receptionist and the security guard named Liu were both stunned. They looked at Hu Shuo blankly, and their mouths grew bigger and bigger.
Finally, someone who knew him came, and Hu Shuo let out a sigh of relief: "I'm here to see Mr. Yang. She can't get through on the phone. She is probably in a meeting."
"Yes, it's a meeting. The presidents of several regions are back today." He Jiaqiang nodded quickly, and then said with a flattering look: "Mr. Hu, let me take you upstairs first~!"
"Well, that's a lot of work."
Hu Shuo nodded.
"Mr. Hu, you are so polite. The group belongs to your family, and it is an honor to show you the way." He Jiaqiang chuckled, and then led Hu Shuo to the elevator.
However, after walking a few steps, he turned around and said to the security guard surnamed Liu and the female receptionist who were standing there blankly: "You two, please remember, this is Mr. Hu, the husband of our President Yang, this time Mr. Hu
If I don’t share your common understanding, if I stop Mr. Hu next time, I will be careful about your jobs!!”
