Chapter 1339 Have you ever been beaten when you were in school
There were already forty or fifty people sitting in the large conference room of Huaxia Film Group, but the conference table was so big, so there was another round of tables in the outer circle.
Here are well-known entrepreneurs, well-known directors, representatives from major art colleges and some people from the film bureau in charge of the department. How to rank seats is really a science.
As Zou Chaochun walked in from outside the gate with steady steps, the originally noisy conference room immediately became quiet.
Immediately afterwards, everyone stood up and greeted him enthusiastically. Zou Chaochun immediately shook hands with the people present one by one.
Some people also applauded, mainly because China's domestic box office exceeded 30 billion last year, firmly ranking second largest market in the world.
Of course, it is also because Zou Chaochun is about to retire this year, and everyone will give him some face at this moment.
But then again, the film group where Zou Chaochun is located has indeed made considerable contributions to Chinese films over the years.
It can be said that if it weren't for him, these domestic artists could hand over the Chinese film market to Hollywood.
Therefore, although the person from the supervisory unit was half a level higher than Zou Chaochun, the main position was left to him.
"Everyone sit, don't be polite..."
As the organizer of this symposium, Zou Chaochun frequently signaled and also glanced at the people present.
In addition to the person in charge of the unit, the most heavyweight person is the director Zhang Yi, who sits first in his left hand. He can be said to be the number one person in China and has led the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
He whispered to the other party for a few words, then looked at the time.
"Everyone has almost arrived. By the way, Zhou Hao from UC Media said he was already on the way, so let's wait for him."
"It's not a formal meeting, so everyone doesn't have to be so reserved."
Zou Chaochun's words immediately aroused many people's dissatisfaction. In addition to whispering, some people also directly expressed their dissatisfaction.
"Mr. Zou, UC Media is becoming less and less awesome now. Zhou Hao kicked everyone out of the Monster Hunt Project before, and ate alone. Will we live?"
The person who speaks is from Le'an Entertainment. The company's main business is film production and distribution, with the background of Xiangjiang Capital.
Zou Chaochun waved his hand and smiled. He knew very well the inside story of this incident. The main reason for the problem with the project was that the male protagonist of Wanwan was arrested, which had a bad impact.
As for UC Media’s subsequent actions, it is basically a very normal behavior in business.
After all, the person who was complaining in front of me sold his share at a very low price because he felt that the movie was completely dead.
To put it bluntly, don’t worry about whether UC Media is doing it or not, and it doesn’t force you to sell it with a gun.
Before Zou Chaochun could speak, the closed conference room door was kicked open with a "clang".
"Damn, who? Why don't you die if you don't want to live so much?"
Before seeing the person, I heard the sound of him first.
After being sent by Zhou Hao, Xu Chuan stood at the door of the conference room with unhappy eyes, rolled up his sleeves.
Zou Chaochun's assistant stood aside, his face full of sweat.
At this time, the conference room was silent, and a sentence appeared in everyone's heart, why is this man here?
Xu Chuan's eyes swept across everyone. As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard someone expressing dissatisfaction with his company. He immediately raised his foot and kicked the door with excitement.
Some people present dodged their eyes, and some were lucky enough to look at the unlucky guy in Le'an Entertainment. This time I had fun.
Zou Chaochun then reacted and secretly regretted that he deliberately mentioned UC Media because Zhou Hao had not arrived.
If he knew that Xu Chuan was coming, he should have been waiting at the door now.
He quickly stood up and quickly met him, "Hey, Xiaochuan, are you back from abroad? Why don't you say anything..."
Xu Chuan raised his hand to stop the other party's interruption, and then looked around, "Wait for a while, who said he wanted to die just now?"
Someone around him immediately laughed, and most of them were watching the cold sweat on their faces, as if they wanted to find a place to get in.
"You, you are right..."
Xu Chuan rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the guy.
The people around the old man immediately dispersed.
"No, no, Mr. Xu, this matter..."
He was incoherent and didn't know what to say. To be honest, he was really afraid. The person in front of him was different from Zhou Hao. This person really took action after a disagreement.
After being beaten, he can at most use excuses such as being a civilized person to win over his respect, but being beaten really hurts.
Xu Chuan looked up and down at the other party. This was a middle-aged man in his forties with an inconspicuous appearance.
"Who are you? Do I know you?"
He directly stretched out his index finger and pointed it on the other party's forehead, and his strength was so strong that he directly pointed the person back to the chair.
Someone next to him introduced, "This is Chen Qinian from Le'an Entertainment, Mr. Chen."
Xu Chuan thanked him, then sat directly at the conference table and faced Mr. Chen, "Brother, what do you mean? Are you trying to mess around?"
"If something happens to you in the past two days, UC Media will still be responsible, right?"
Xu Chuan looked down at the other person with his arms held back.
This logic has completely confused Chen Qinian. With the adrenaline soaring, he could not think of any causal relationship.
"No, I mean..."
"Don't you mean anything, make it clear, why don't UC Media let you survive?"
Xu Chuan continued to poke the other person's forehead.
In fact, everyone in this room who is familiar with Xu Chuan knows that what this guy is best at is to seize the loopholes in your speech and then exaggerate it.
He can really upgrade an ordinary complaint or quarrel to a serious incident where both sides will never die.
Therefore, those who know Xu Chuan will hardly say anything out of line in front of him. If there is really something wrong, it may be easier to find Zhou Hao.
Well, to be honest, this kind of perception was actually obtained by Xu Chuan deliberately guiding them.
The roles of him and Zhou Hao are one with red faces and the other with the other with white faces. Xu Chuan is the one who makes things big or asks for a huge price.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Zhou Hao is the kind of character who seems to help the other party calm down, but in fact he stabs it with one knife and the other party has to say thank you.
In fact, these are just division of labor they have carried out, and of course they are also excuses that Xu Chuan found when he turned the blame and didn't want to care about the specific business.
"Hurry up and pull him away, what's the point!"
Zou Chaochun knew that Xu Chuan must not take advantage of the issue at this time, otherwise this matter would never end.
"Okawa, you come down first..."
"Dr. Xu, Mr. Chen doesn't mean that..."
It was different from others' thoughts, and this time Xu Chuan was very 'listening'.
"Okay, this time I'll give you face..."
When Mr. Xu saw that he was ready, he stopped and came down from the table with everyone's advice.
He pointed at Chen Qinian and cursed directly, "I have something to tell me in person from now on. I am so old and still talk bad things behind my back. You have never been beaten when you were in school, right?"
After saying that, he pulled open a chair and sat down directly, and happened to sit next to the big director Zhang Yi, which made the originally arranged seat mess suddenly.
The person sitting in this position was originally a director, but now this big brother over 50 years old dared not go over and say that this is his position.
Zou Chaochun sighed and immediately asked someone to re-arrange his seat.
After a while, he had already felt the difficulties of life. He was so excited that he had just become. It would be better to retire...
"Okay, okay, no one is allowed to mention this matter."
Zou Chaochun sat down again, comforted everyone, and then looked at Xu Chuan's sitting posture with a toothache on his face.
The guy put his right arm on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, grabbed the melon seeds on the table with his left hand, and looked like a street gangster.
He could only turn his gaze slightly to the other side, and it was a clean sight.
After a few short words, the symposium that had been messy at the beginning officially began.
This form of meeting is to let everyone communicate. After all, Huaxia Film Group is a state-owned enterprise and is in a dominant position in the industry.
Unlike these companies in the conference room, Huaxia Film is a monopoly in the entire industry chain, covering all aspects of production, distribution, screening and technology.
Of course, there is also responsible for the introduction and distribution of overseas films. Generally speaking, Chinese films have industry standards and even have to participate in the revision of industry regulations.
Just like the entertainment industry convention led by UC Media before, this may not have a good effect without the support of Chinese films.
Of course, they also shoulder the responsibility of leading and promoting the development of the domestic film industry, as well as spreading mainstream values and promoting national culture.
So they need to listen to the needs and ideas of the entire industry, and there will be such meetings every year, and of course this time.
For example, if a producer like Dingsheng wants to increase the proportion of accounts, can the existing account sharing model be improved?
This will definitely make the cake of the theater chain, and the theater chain will definitely disagree. How to talk, whether to compromise and take a step back, or to temporarily maintain the status quo, all this requires Chinese films to take the lead.
Some so-called pioneer filmmakers believe that today's commercial films are full of copper smell and are not in line with their artist's identity.
They hope to increase art academies, and it is best for the state to give them money to shoot art movies directly, and the review system is relaxed, so it is best for them to shoot whatever they want.
When faced with these people, Zou Chaochun was speechless, calling for art and art every day, and then no one watched the films he made. They either said that the audience did not know how to appreciate art or that there was a problem with the review.
Alas, this...
Before he could speak, he heard a voice next to him with a Tianjin accent, saying, "You are so angry that you can't help but ask for money when you're packing the frame. Don't worry about his cheating."
This abrupt voice made everyone stop and react, and burst out laughing. This scolding was so vivid.
As we all know, lies do not hurt people, but the truth is the sharp blade, so the artist who spoke before raised his hand and pointed at Xu Chuan with a flushed face, "You, you..."
You have been several times, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Zou Chaochun frowned and knocked on the table, "Xiaochuan, be careful when speaking, and don't scold the streets."
Xu Chuan only raised his head at this time. He held his cell phone and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "What's wrong, I'm talking about news."
He raised his hand and shook the opened Twitter page, looking incredible, "Hey, there are some people who have picked up money and silver, I have never seen anyone scolded me."
The artist also reacted. Otherwise, the mentality of doing art would be good. After a while, it has been adjusted, just like the one who was about to get cerebral congestion just now.
Xu Chuan secretly extended his thumb and admired...
Zou Chaochun raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, then looked at Xu Chuan, "Xiaochuan, do your company have any plans this year?"
Xu Chuan looked speechless, "Why are you asking questions in class?"
"It's nothing, just a few movies, TV series, and variety shows."
Zou Chaochun laughed directly, "You don't know at all. It's so easy to be your boss."
Xu Chuan spread his hands and directly said that you were right.
"hehe……"
This time, not only Zou Chaochun, but many people present laughed, especially those from the Film Bureau.
As mentioned before, whether it is Umbrella or UC, after several years of development, new interest groups have gradually formed around them.
In this room, there are only those Internet platforms that don’t like Xu Chuan. These are the real competitors of UC Media in the next few years.
Most of the rest actually have cooperative relationships with the UC department, and most of them have made money.
Even the one who just now called Xu Chuan accused him of the slander, UC's theater chain responded to the initiative to play the other party's movie, but no one watched it.
So, when he speaks, many people are actually quite concerned.
Xu Chuan also laughed, and he waved his hand, "But I'm serious, I have a movie in South Africa next year and I've signed an agreement with director Li Sen."
This incident surprised many people because they all knew that the other party had these conflicts with Li Sen before.
Especially Li Sen, who has said more than once that he was targeted in public and criticized the industry trend in the mainland.
How could they still cooperate in this situation? Especially this man’s personality, it is simply a miracle.
Zou Chaochun knew some inside information, but it was not easy to say anything about this matter on this occasion.
He could only turn everyone's attention to specific business, "I heard Zhou Hao say it's a science fiction film."
Xu Chuan nodded. He actually didn't want to say too specific, so he immediately interrupted, "By the way, everyone is now open to subscribe for investment shares. If you are interested, you can contact UC Media."
Speaking of this, everyone's enthusiasm was immediately ignited. UC Media's projects rarely fail, but it's just a matter of how much you make.
Although they have always required absolute control over the project, this is much better than those who don’t know when something goes wrong.
A stable rate of return is the king. Even the big director Zhang Yi sitting there can't guarantee that no money will be lost for every project.
Then Xu Chuan clapped his hands and said, "Also, let me say something that has nothing to do with the movie..."
He continued until everyone was attracted by him, "You all know that I have a lot of copyrights for novel IPs."
"Starting the second half of the year, these copyrights will be gradually opened up, and we welcome all parties to cooperate in development."
This statement once again surprised everyone. In the past two years, these four domestic video platforms have been in the same way as arms races, and have invested a lot of money to acquire IP copyrights.
It is obvious that they are seizing resources and laying out the pan-entertainment industry chain.
They hoarded these IPs, but they were not in a hurry to develop them. One was to avoid competitors, and the other was to maximize their value.
Of course, the most important thing is actually the operation of the capital market, improving valuation and speculating on stock prices.
UC Media entered the first place and also had the largest number of IPs.
By the way, they are not listed companies, so there is no question of stock price.
Xu Chuan continued, "I only have one requirement, and the partners must access the blockchain smart contract system developed by UC Technology."
