The release of a movie does not mean that you have money to spend on publicity.
Because some promotional resources may not be purchased even with money.
Why can those top publishing companies take it all, even if their conditions are very harsh and their profit sharing is very high?
But there are still so many movies flocking to it. They would rather give a high profit to the other party for distribution, rather than find a small company to distribute it?
It is because these top distribution companies not only have complete publicity and distribution channels, but also have many scarce resources.
At the same time, the relationship between top distribution companies and theater chains is relatively equal, because they have the high-quality film sources that theater chains need. Therefore, even under the same circumstances, theater chains will make contributions to the movies they distribute.
Array of films tilted.
This is the advantage of top distribution companies.
Obviously, Oceanwide Film and Television currently does not have such strength.
The movie project has not yet been approved and preparations have not started yet, so if Li Yi is not in a hurry, it is naturally impossible to reach an agreement at once.
However, Mu Nanxing is quite satisfied, at least, there is still a chance.
What he needs next is the support of more funds and resources. If it were someone else, there might really be nothing they can do in this regard, but Mu Nanxing is different.
He can still find his father.
Let’s not mention these for now.
On the other side, Li Yi immediately found Zhuo Yixiong and asked him out for tea.
"Director Li, you have so much time to invite me out for tea?" Zhuo Yixiong said with a smile.
In fact, Zhuo Yixiong's life has been pretty good recently. As the assistant director of "The Gift of Room No. 7", Zhuo Yixiong has also benefited a lot.
"Are Director Zhuo interested in working together again?" Li Yi asked straight to the point.
Previously, if Li Yi had not been connected with Li Zhenye, Zhuo Yixiong would not have come at all, but based on the first successful cooperation, this time Li Yi no longer needs to use his father's favor.
He can directly invite himself.
Zhuo Yixiong's eyes lit up when he heard this and asked: "You have a new idea so soon?"
"This is the script. Director Zhuo can take a look at it first." Li Yi smiled and handed the prepared script to Zhuo Yixiong.
Zhuo Yixiong took it and when he saw the title, Zhuo Yixiong's reaction was no different from Mu Nanxing's, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
After reading the script, Zhuo Yixiong's eyes were not as red as Mu Nanxing's, but when he raised his head, there was a look of admiration on his face.
"Although the story is a bit old, it is quite sensational. Director Li, I am going to work for you again. Please give me your advice!" Zhuo Yixiong said with a grin.
"No, I am young and have little experience. What I need most is an experienced director like you, Director Zhuo, to take care of me." Li Yi was also overjoyed.
The choice of assistant director is really important, especially for Li Yi. Even though he has made two movies, if he has an experienced director like Zhuo Yixiong as his deputy, he will definitely save countless money.
trivial troubles.
"Is Director Zhuo free now?" Li Yi asked again.
To be honest, it's really hard to find an assistant director like Zhuo Yixiong. He has rich experience and good connections. The key is that he is very dedicated and can understand himself well.
Although it was said that he joined Li Zhenye for his sake when filming "The Gift of Room No. 7", he is very experienced in doing things. It can be said that Li Yi did not need to take care of almost other trivial matters of the crew.
He can arrange it clearly by himself.
Therefore, if possible, Li Yi naturally hopes to continue the long-term cooperation.
Zhuo Yixiong said very simply: "No questions! I'll ask Boss Li to take care of me from now on!"
Li Yi didn't expect Zhuo Yixiong to be so straightforward, but he made some of the words he prepared unnecessary.
"What? You think I'm too straightforward?" Zhuo Yixiong saw Li Yi's expression was a little strange and couldn't help but asked with a laugh.
Li Yi nodded and said, "A little bit indeed."
However, Zhuo Yixiong took a sip of tea and sighed: "Hong Kong Island movies are in short supply, and they all go north to find work. However, in recent years, there has been an explosion of talent from the mainland, both in front of and behind the scenes."
"It's rare that we have a rising star like you here on Hong Kong Island. Naturally, I have to support you in advance. Besides, you have underestimated your influence." Zhuo Yixiong looked at Li Yi with a complicated expression.
"How to say?" Li Yi didn't think much about it, but after hearing Zhuo Yixiong's words, he became a little curious.
"There are many veteran directors in Hong Kong, but there are almost no young directors who can compete. Your film "The Gift of Room No. 7" successfully broke through, but many older people are watching it. Although everyone is now watching
We are all Chinese, but after all, there are still regional differences. Moreover, in the early years, some people could not recognize themselves and did some things that hurt their feelings. In the past, they had no choice but to endure it and support it. But now,
Times have changed."
"Of course, these are old sayings. You just need to know that you should not underestimate your influence, especially here on Hong Kong Island. If you want to make a new film and hire actors, most of the actors on Hong Kong Island will not refuse.
, even those movie kings and queens will help you, so don’t underestimate yourself. This is also the case now. When you make a few more blockbuster movies, you will be regarded as the flagship of the new generation of Hong Kong film directors.
I’m a character. So, I’m hugging you in advance, you know?” Zhuo Yixiong said with a smile.
Li Yi really didn’t know this was happening!
Because his father is from Hong Kong Island, although he went to university in the capital, he was also classified as a Hong Kong Island director.
If Li Yi is a mainland director, then it really doesn't matter because there are so many talents.
But here on Hong Kong Island, it's different.
There are indeed many veteran directors, but it is true that they are not taking over anymore.
Therefore, although Zhuo Yixiong said it was a bit exaggerated, it was indeed true.
......
"Xiao Yi, let me introduce you. This is your Aunt Wen Qingwen. Didn't you say that you want to find a heroine who can act in a painful drama? Your Aunt Wen, you have the nickname of the queen of painful dramas." Yi
When Lingling learned that Li Yi's script was completed, she couldn't sit still.
Bring Wen Qing directly to see Li Yi.
"Aunt Wen? Mom, do you call someone old?" Li Yi glanced at Wen Qing. To be honest, a woman's age is really a mystery.
This Wen Qing looks like a pretty young woman. Calling people aunt, that is, mother, otherwise, they are not allowed to call people old?
"Tsk, tsk, Sister Ling, this is not like the stupid son you told me. He has a sweet mouth." Wen Qing couldn't help but smile after hearing what Li Yi said was interesting.
Yi Lingling glared at Li Yi and gave her a warning look, which made Li Yi confused. What the hell? What does mom's look mean?
"Your mother and I match sister Aqing. If you don't call me aunt, what would you call me?" Yi Lingling rolled her eyes at Li Yi and said.
As for the reason for the warning look, ahem, the benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom.
After all, the attractiveness of a woman like Wen Qing to a man of Li Yi's age is probably on several levels.
As for Li Yi, who had been hanging out in nightclubs earlier, it was obvious that he was an LSP. Naturally, Yi Lingling wanted to warn him not to attack anyone!
However, when Li Yi came back to his senses and looked at Hua Xin's young woman-like Wen Qing, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Without him, for some reason he thought of a certain series from the island country, ahem, Mom’s Friends series!
