"Don't break up these five Xu Wenyang. Assemble the best teachers in the company and give them intensive training. After the year, we will send them to SM Company for further studies."
Xiao Qian and Li Qingjue talked about working at home, which was convenient and confidential.
Li Qingjue was nestled on the sofa, her slender legs resting on the glass coffee table, her two white and tender feet swaying, completely girlish. She was completely different from Mr. Li in the company.
"Are you sure these five people can form a group?"
Li Qing definitely didn't agree with Xiao Qian's decision.
"There may be changes later, but let's do this for now. The sooner they can cooperate and understand each other, the sooner they can form a group."
In the process of launching an idol group, the goal is not fixed. In the long process, any accidents may happen.
For example, during the formation process of Girls' Generation, it was the last makeup photo shoot and the debut song was about to be recorded, but Park So Yeon had to withdraw due to family changes.
No one can avoid such unexpected factors.
Therefore, when preparing for an idol group, generally entertainment companies try to cast a wide net. In this way, even if something happens to some of the people, it will not affect the final plan.
But Xiao Qian did the opposite.
The boy band's debut has not yet been announced, so he decided on the candidates first.
But what he said makes sense. After all, Xu Wenyang and others have practiced together for a long time and cooperated well with each other. If they continue to be tied together, the effect will definitely be greater than that of a temporary team.
Xiao Qian made arrangements for He Shiqi and others.
"With these eight trainees, you can strengthen their learning of musical instruments and add some traditional musical instrument subjects. I am going to use them to do an experiment."
This is the unfairness of status.
As trainees, everyone cherishes the dream of debuting and longs to stand on a star-studded stage one day and enjoy the fanatical support of fans.
But in the eyes of the boss, they are just commodities that can be used for various researches.
If it fails...
It also failed.
As for their dreams, the big shots don't care.
Although Xiao Qian is not such a cruel person, he can only do this for the sake of the company's operations. Otherwise, Starlight Entertainment will gradually become rigid and lose its vitality.
Li Qingjue didn't think there was anything wrong with his approach and nodded to express his acceptance.
Just such a casual conversation between the two people has already decided the future and dreams of more than ten people. It must be said that the power of big shots is really terrifying.
"Then I'm leaving. You're home alone. Make sure you eat on time. If that doesn't work, don't go to school. And don't run around alone. Remember to bring a bodyguard."
Xiao Qian was nagging like an old woman, which made Li Qingjue roll his eyes wildly.
"Oh, I can take care of myself. With a nanny at home, how can I still be hungry?"
Now there is no one in the Xiao family.
Xiao Guoji and Ai Lan disliked the heat in the city and ran back to their hometown in the Northeast to escape the summer heat. They also supervised the construction of bridges and dams at their grandma's house.
Now Xiao Qian has to go out, leaving Li Qingjue alone at home.
Xiao Qian is going to the capital.
Shirley Lansing came to China, along with the American delegation.
Negotiations on China's accession to the WTO have entered a critical period, and there are only a few rounds of consultations left.
As a representative of the American film industry, Shirley Lansing also has a mission on this trip. She sent an invitation to Xiao Qian, apparently to discuss the issue of "Titanic".
Xiao Qian arrived in Beijing and moved directly into Li Jianguo's place.
It had been a long time since she had seen her son. Xu Mingxia was so happy that she asked for leave and cooked a lot of delicious food for Xiao Qian.
Looking at the children devouring the food, I felt even more emotional.
"You guys, you are changing so much every day that I can hardly recognize it. It is obviously a critical period for your growth, but I, the mother, am not here, which makes me feel so panicked. I even want to
Resign directly and focus on taking care of you."
Xiao Qian was startled and quickly spat out the bones in his mouth.
"No, Mom, your position is very important. If the school's reforms are not implemented, it will make a comeback."
Xiao Qian knows very well what kind of virtue Beijing Communication University had in its previous life. Together with Pudaokou Vocational and Technical College and Zhongguancun College of Arts and Sciences, it has disgraced Chinese universities.
In this life, because of his small butterfly wings, Xu Mingxia suddenly became the president of Communication University and discovered the seriousness of the problem in advance.
Now Xu Mingxia is presiding over the education reform in the school, which has offended many people, but the reform is still carried out unswervingly.
Xiao Qian cares more about the country's future than her family's reunion with the United States.
Xu Mingxia is overflowing with motherhood, and she can't really resign if she expresses some emotion.
At their level, many things happen out of their control, and the mission they shoulder is too important.
"You, don't worry about them. Apart from being younger, do you think they look anything like children?"
Compared to Xu Mingxia, Li Jianguo was much calmer and saw things very thoroughly.
After comforting Xu Mingxia, when she looked at Xiao Qian again, her father-in-law's tone was very bad.
"I said that you kid is really capable of doing things day by day. It doesn't matter what kind of film interoperability agreement you have with South Korea, you can even get involved in Hollywood things. That chairman of Paramount, after he came here, he tried everywhere and made us very passive.
, all because of you."
Xiao Qian shrank his neck, trembling with fear.
"I didn't do anything bad, I just wanted to sell "The Opium War" to the United States. That woman Shirley's price was too harsh, so I had no other choice, so I had to use some tricks."
Li Jianguo's cave is as bright as a candle.
"Hmph, the fox is pretending to be the tiger."
How could Xiao Qian, the boss of an entertainment company, have any power to curb the distribution of other people's movies? It's not all being done by him, the minister.
"You go meet her tomorrow and finalize this matter."
Li Jianguo's words excited Xiao Qian.
"Dad, do you also support my approach? If we exchange it like this, we will contribute more box office to "Titanic"."
Li Jianguo's expression was firm yet hesitant, which was strange.
"That movie was great?"
Xiao Qian would not lie to him.
"Much more powerful than "The Opium War"."
Li Jianguo still had reservations.
"That's okay, we and the other party are pursuing different things. Hollywood just wants to make more money from the Chinese market, but what we want is the influence that creates history. This is the first time that Chinese films have the opportunity to enter
Once it is launched in the North American market, it will be a ground-breaking event and will greatly stimulate the domestic film industry."
See, the levels you are at are different, and the things you see are different.
While the Hollywood giants were still struggling to win the box office, Li Jianguo had already thought about stimulating the Chinese film industry.
But he is right. Once "The Opium War" really lands in North America and achieves good box office, the impact it will bring will definitely shake up the domestic film industry.
With Li Jianguo's instructions, Xiao Qian no longer had any worries when she went to see Shirley Lansing.
Shirley Lansing has been in China for a while, and it seems her trip has not gone smoothly.
It's not like she never thought about ditching Xiao Qian and completing the early release of "Titanic". But unfortunately, she always hit a wall no matter where she went.
In the past, she could visit and discuss with various departments, seek meaningful information from them, and formulate targeted strategies. But now that the Ministry of Culture has been established, it is monolithic, and if it doesn't work, it won't work.
Shirley Lansing wanted to threaten WTO accession negotiations, but Chinese officials were unmoved.
No one is a fool. Can you, the boss of a mere film company, control such a big thing as joining the WTO?
Shirley was helpless and very eager to promote the early release of "Titanic" in China, so she finally had to ask Xiao Qian for help again.
We are all smart people, so there is no need to beat around the bush.
"Awesome kid, you win. But can you really push for the early release of "Titanic"?"
Xiao Qian did not answer, but asked: "Dear lady, can you guarantee that "The Opium War" will be released in major theaters in North America in October?"
Lansing had no initiative and had no choice but to be the first to surrender.
"We have studied the market situation of "The Opium War" in East Asia and Southeast Asia, and feel that this is a movie with great potential. Therefore, we have reached an agreement with major theaters in North America. On October 1, the movie will be released in
It is available in 3,500 cinemas in North America during prime time. Please be assured that all of them are first-tier brand cinemas."
Thirty-five hundred movie theaters. When Xiao Qian heard this number, his eyes turned green.
When will China have such a scale?
It is not difficult to see from this that Paramount has really gone ruthless.
"Ma'am, please listen to my opinion. I suggest you edit "Titanic" in advance, including the scene where Jack draws Rose's paintings and the scene in the car, and then edit it in October.
Come and submit your application with the samples. I think the result will be as you wish."
