Entertainment From Divorce

Chen Ye came to the film department and found that Zheng Tong was not in the office. When he was about to find someone to ask, he saw his secretary and asked, "Where is Mr. Zheng now?"

"Ah? Mr. Zheng is having a meeting in the conference room now." Seeing that it was Chen Ye, the secretary thought that it was Mr. Tan who was looking for him, so he said, "How about I go over and tell Mr. Zheng?"

Chen Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "How long will it take for it to end?"

The secretary raised his hand and glanced at the time on the lady's watch: "It's been more than an hour, it should be over soon."

Chen Ye nodded and said, "Let Mr. Zheng finish his work. I'll wait for him here for a while."

In a conference room of the film department, under the auspices of Zheng Tong, a very important meeting was being held with several directors of the film department.

With competition in the film market so fierce, major entertainment companies are beginning to look for new directions, and Bright Entertainment is no exception. The theme of today's meeting revolves around the development direction of the film department in the next period of time.

If you want to find new development directions, you must understand the current market environment, otherwise your imaginary ideas will be divorced from reality and will be of no use.

What types of movies are mainstream in today’s market, and what kind of movies can attract more audiences?

Each supervisor received their respective tasks a few days ago and conducted full investigations.

Zheng Tong listened carefully to everyone's report and said: "You have done a very thorough investigation. After listening to so many market conditions, please share your thoughts."

The supervisors of various departments actively expressed their opinions and ideas. Zheng Tong recorded some feasible plans while thinking.

When everyone adds firewood, the flames are high. When there are more people, there will naturally be more ideas.

After several supervisors finished speaking, they looked at Zheng Tong.

Zheng Tong looked at the document on the computer and said: "I have summarized everyone's thoughts, and now they are roughly divided into two directions. You listen, and we will vote."

Today's meeting is mainly to discuss a general direction, and then submit the results to Tan Yue.

Whether it passes or not depends on Tan Yue's final decision.

After talking about the two options, Zheng Tongdao asked: "Is there anything else you need to add?"

Some shook their heads, others remained silent.

"Then let the voting begin."

After the vote, Zheng Tong said: “Then let’s decide on the first option.”

After saying that, he added: "Everyone, the competition in the film market is very cruel. I hope you can give 200% of your efforts during the next period of time."

The film department is developing better and better. One of the main reasons is that with Tan Yue here, Zheng Tong also wants to make achievements on his own.

"Meeting dismissed."

Zheng Tong hurriedly left the conference room with a piece of material and walked towards his office. He wanted to quickly sort out the contents of today's meeting and submit it.

If you act early, you can seize the initiative early.

"Mr. Zheng."

Zheng Tong stopped and turned around to see Chen Ye: "Secretary Chen, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Tan wants to ask you to come to the office."

"Okay, I'll go over now." Zheng Tong handed the document in his hand to the secretary and arranged: "Put this information on my desk."

"Okay, Director."

Compared with the information in his hand, Tan Yue's matters were more important, so Zheng Tong followed Chen Ye to the president's office.

Zheng Tong came to the office and explained: "Sorry, Mr. Tan, I was just in a meeting."

On the way here, he realized that Chen Ye had been waiting for more than ten minutes.

"It doesn't matter."

Zheng Tong: "Today I discussed the development direction of the film department with several department managers. The results are now available, and the information can be submitted tomorrow at the latest."

Tan Yue nodded with satisfaction and talked about the purpose of looking for Zheng Tong this time: "Now that the casting of "Forrest Gump" has been finalized, the next step is to prepare for the start of the movie."

"Don't worry if you leave it to me." Zheng Tong is basically the one doing the preparations every time, and he is already very familiar with it.

Tan Yue didn't say much about the preparations. He took out a folder and said, "Here is a list of all the actors. Take a look first."

Zheng Tong opened the folder and saw Ma Guoliang's name at first sight. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Ma Guoliang was still the protagonist in the movie.

He even thought that Ma Guoliang was still on the set of "Crazy".

But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense for Ma Guoliang to play the leading role.

Tan Yue's movies are becoming more and more famous, and the audience's demands for movies will naturally increase accordingly.

There is no way around this. The audience's expectations have been raised. Even if Tan Yue makes a good quality movie, the audience may not be satisfied. The quality must be extremely high.

After reading the script of this new movie, Zheng Tong believed that this role was not very difficult and actors with poor acting skills would not be qualified for it. He also thought about who would play the leading role in "Forrest Gump".

There is no problem at all for Ma Guoliang to star in "Forrest Gump".

Zheng Tong also heard about Ma Guoliang's brilliant record in the "Hurry" crew.

Zheng Tong knew the candidates for most of the roles on the list, but he was not sure who the male and female protagonists were.

And now the candidate is known.

Tan Yue said: "When I go back, I will make a plan and the email will be sent directly to my mailbox."

Planning well in advance will allow all preparations to be carried out in an orderly manner, otherwise it will be very easy to miss some small things.

Before the movie starts, all the work must be done in place so that subsequent filming can proceed smoothly.

Zheng Tong closed the folder in his hand and replied, "Okay."

"This movie is very important. Prepare carefully for the preparations. If you have any questions, please report to me in time."

Zheng Tong nodded, but there were thousands of thoughts in his mind.

Tan Yue reminded him more than once that "Forrest Gump" is a very important movie. Even during the filming of "The Truman Show", he didn't remind him many times.

Zheng Tong murmured in his heart: What important thing does Mr. Tan use this movie for?

After the two chatted about some details of the preparations, Zheng Tong left the office.

‘Ding dong’ the elevator door opened.

"Mr. Zheng." Someone greeted.

"Hello." Zheng Tong's reaction was obviously half a beat too slow. He was still thinking about what the purpose of this movie was.

Watching the elevator door close, Zheng Tong immediately shook his head and began to think about the plan.

The plan behind this movie has nothing to do with me, and it is not something I should think about.

The most important thing at the moment is to get the plan out quickly so that the movie can start shooting as soon as possible.

The plan is not difficult for him and can be completed in a day or two.

Zheng Tong returned to the office, created a new document on his computer, and was about to start writing a plan. In just a few minutes, he already had a rough idea in his mind.

As soon as his hands were placed on the keyboard, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Director." Manager Liu came in with a document and said, "This is the information you asked me to compile."

Zheng Tong took the information, and Manager Liu introduced it next to him.

"Judging from the current situation, every director has more or less problems, and there are many things they don't know much about." Director Liu paused: "I asked some directors and they wanted to organize a Meeting, let’s study and discuss together, it can be considered as learning from each other.”

In the entire company, apart from Tan Yue, there were almost no top directors who were very famous in the industry. Zheng Tong wondered if he could cultivate them.

Zheng Tong nodded thoughtfully, his eyes brightened, and he said: "This is a good suggestion. We will gather all the directors of the company together in a while and organize an academic exchange meeting."

The company had never organized such an opportunity before, and he felt that Tan Yue would also strongly support it.

"Do directors from the TV drama department also need to participate?"

Although the TV series department and the film department are on the same floor, they are two different types. Manager Liu mainly asked the director of the film department this time, so he asked this question.

"I will communicate with the TV drama department at that time. I think they will not refuse."

As a director, my ultimate dream is of course to enter the film industry and show my work on the big screen.

This time Zheng Tong plans to organize a large-scale exchange meeting and summon all the directors of the company.

TV drama directors can learn from film directors. Of course, there are many things that TV drama directors can learn from. For example, Lin Qingye has never made a movie, but he has experience that many film directors do not have.

The two chatted in the office for nearly half an hour. When Manager Liu was about to get up and leave, he was stopped by Zheng Tong.

"Do you have any other work plans next?"

Manager Liu thought about it carefully and said, "No more for now."

Zheng Tong looked at the plan on the computer screen in front of him and said, "I'll give you a task. Write a plan for the preparations for the "Forrest Gump" crew. Give it to me before three o'clock in the afternoon. Is there no problem?"

He also needs to sort out the materials from the meeting. There is a lot of content in this meeting and it must be reported to the boss. Otherwise, how can he prove that the development direction voted out is correct?

Zheng Tong thought for a while, but he really couldn't spare the time.

"No problem." Manager Liu made an 'OK' gesture. He had also written a movie plan. Moreover, this is Mr. Tan's new movie. He has studied the script of "Forrest Gump" many times. He is very happy to be assigned such a task this time.

"Go write, hurry up."

Manager Liu trotted out of the office. Zheng Tong picked up the materials and started working.

The task of writing a plan is relatively simple, and Supervisor Liu is fully capable of it. If there is anything inappropriate, Zheng Tong can improve it.

And if the content in the plan is really bad, Zheng Tong can also write a new one in a short time.

In order to write the plan for "Forrest Gump" before three o'clock in the afternoon, Director Liu took two bites of lunch and returned to the office to work quickly. He worked during the lunch break.

In fact, the time is completely enough, but in order to write better, even if the lunch break is sacrificed, it is still worth it in his opinion.

When writing the plan this time, he deliberately slowed down for fear of problems.

Until about two o'clock in the afternoon, Manager Liu looked at the written plan, checked it back and forth to make sure there were no problems or typos, and then came to Zheng Tong's office with the printed plan.

"I heard that you didn't take a break at noon?" Zheng Tong asked with concern: "If you think you can't finish it within the time, you can tell me."

He was still a little bit regretful, after all, it was the work he had assigned to do that delayed his rest.

Manager Liu said nonchalantly: "It's okay. I don't have the habit of taking a lunch break anyway. It's good to write something."

For decades, Manager Liu has never taken a lunch break and has long formed a habit.

While Zheng Tong watched, he marked some places with a pen and said: "Look at this place that needs to be modified. The plan must have a certain degree of change and be flexible. I will write out the changes directly for you, and you will Revise it in the electronic version and send it to me.”

"Okay." Manager Liu listened carefully, thinking about these issues that he must pay more attention to when making plans in the future.

More than twenty minutes later.

Zheng Tongdao: "Remember these questions and see if there is anything you haven't figured out yet. Then I'll explain them to you."

"there is none left."

Zheng Tong looked at the time and said: "It's three o'clock now. Give me before half past four. One and a half hours will be enough to correct the above problems."

There are no major problems in the plan, they are just minor problems that can be solved with a little modification.

"I'm going now." Manager Liu's steps were faster than the last time he walked.

Zheng Tong moved his neck, and he was only halfway through sorting out the materials in his hand. There was still a lot of content, and he didn't have any time to rest now.

It wasn't until 4:19 that Zheng Tong saw the plan sent by Director Liu on WeChat, and then opened it and started reading.

After a while, Manager Liu also came to the office.

"Director, I sent it to you. Are there any changes that need to be made this time?"

"Wait for me a moment." Zheng Tong's eyes did not leave the computer, reading the contents of the plan word by word.

All the places I marked just now have been modified.

After reading it, Zheng Tongtong said: "There is no big problem this time. I will just modify it. You can go back and have a rest first."

After hearing these words, Manager Liu took a deep breath, and his tense mood finally relaxed.

While writing the plan, he did not dare to be careless in the slightest, for fear of making serious mistakes.

After Manager Liu left, Zheng Tong temporarily put down the materials he had compiled and began to polish the plan.

The plan was already very good, and he only made two changes.

"There should be no problem." Zheng Tong checked it from beginning to end, nodded and said, "Very good."

Then click save and send it to Tan Yue via email.

Then Zheng Tong got up and left the office and went to the president's office. He wanted to see if the plan had been approved by Tan Yue?
