Evan Bell shook his head and temporarily put aside the things about Robert Hawkes and Edward Schmidt. These things are not something he can come up with just sitting here worrying about it. thing, this applies at all times.

"Eden, by the way, I want to set up a fund." Evan Bell remembered Tom Ford's proposal not long ago, regardless of Tom Ford's "Single Man", just to say that this fund was established to fund independent films and independent When it comes to music, Evan Bell is absolutely in agreement with both hands.

After listening to Evan Bell's idea for this fund, Eden Hudson nodded, "It's possible. However, who is in charge of this fund in Eleven Studio is very important. Also, the selection of fund sponsors. The plan is also very important, and this can be regarded as the slogan of this fund in the future.”

"Can't you be responsible for the fund?" Evan Bell really has a little understanding of these things. Whether it is in his previous life or in this life, he really did not have much involvement in economics and management. So his first reaction was to put Eden Hudson in charge of the mouth

Eden Hudson glanced at Evan Bell speechlessly, "I'm not you, I'm not so omnipotent." Eden Hudson is now not only the department manager of Eleven Law, but also Facebook, uTube The direct manager of the two departments, although the two departments are no longer the situation of a bare commander of Eden-Hudson, and there are already many people under Eden-Hudson who can use it, but in fact, Eden-Hudson is still Just as busy, he will go to Palo Alto in two days.

However, Eden-Hudson's most direct reply to Evan-Bell's sentence is actually that he is not suitable for managing the operation of a fund, which requires professionals. Great interest, but managing this piece, Teddy Bell is more professional than him.

Evan-Bell smiled, "Then let Teddy contact the candidate for you to discuss with him..." Evan-Bell seemed to be determined to be the shopkeeper, which made Eden-Ha Deson's eyes were full of contempt: Evan Bell came up with an idea every time, and as a result, others were so busy turning their heads that Evan Bell saw Eden Hudson's eyes, and suddenly screamed, "What's the matter! There are so many headhunting companies now, and you don’t need to do everything yourself, just discuss the candidates.”

Eden-Hudson replied with a roll of eyes. However, Eden Hudson did not continue to entangle on this topic. All the internal departments of Eleven Studio are now on track. If a separate fund is to be established, it must be with Eleven Productions, Eleven Productions and Eleven. Music collaboration. Therefore, whether to choose someone from Studio Eleven to manage it together, or to find another professional to manage it, Eden Hudson knew that it would be more reliable to discuss it with Teddy Bell.

"What do you think about the selection plan..." Eden Hudson lowered his head and flipped through the magazine again, but he was all looking at the photos, not the text. Seeing the photo of Evan Bell chatting with Christopher Nolan on Oscar night last night, he couldn't help but twitch his lips

"I just want to allocate a fixed amount of money every year, say 20 million yuan, one part is dedicated to sponsoring independent films, maybe three or four potential works are selected every year, and the filming of their works is sponsored for free; the other part is dedicated to sponsoring independent music, Maybe choose five or six groups of singers and use the funds to record albums for them." Evan Bell said briefly, then pondered for a while, organizing the thoughts in his mind, "The part of independent film is to select the script, There is no limit to the subject matter and content, as long as the proposal has enough potential and can be affirmed by us, we can invest. For independent music, we can use uTubE and Facebook as platforms to select those powerful independent bands.”

In fact, what Evan Bell said was very simple, and it was nothing more than the saying that strength comes first. This idea is simple and clear, and it is completely consistent with the principle that Evan Bell has always upheld. Eden Hudson couldn't be more clear about this, but what he captured was another confidence, "Is the selection criteria set in-house by Eleven Studios?"

Eden-Hudson's focus is on public non-selection or internal selection. Simply take the scholarship as an example. Some scholarships are openly selected. The hard conditions are listed, and all the qualifications are shortlisted. Then, the final scholarship recipient is selected based on the grades or the comprehensive GPA or the comprehensive strength of the interview. This is relatively open. Transparent, relatively broad, and the tricks will be minimized.

Some scholarships are for companies or individuals. For example, each applicant submits a paper, or the company sets up scholarships for a specific position, then only a small group of people can be shortlisted, and then the company Pick the final winner yourself. This approach is relatively private, not transparent, and may be based on the company's preferences as the highest standard. The winner is not necessarily the best, but the one that best suits the company's preferences.

Listening to Evan-Bell's mind-tolerance just now is the latter, and the selection is based on the internal aesthetic standards of Eleven Studios.

In fact, whether it is a movie or music, if you want to hold an open selection, you can hold a short film competition or a music creation competition on uTube, and the final winner will win a scholarship. The scope of this kind of publicity is bound to be much wider, but at the same time, it will also be a lot of business. It's like the online version of "American Idol".

Evan Bell nodded, "This fund does not need such a wide range of influence, I just want to fund some people who are really making movies and music. The money is to sponsor them for free without asking for anything in return." To put it bluntly, it is the final For those who have won the recognition of the fund, even if the film and recorded music are completely destroyed, there is no market return, or even word of mouth, and the investment is completely lost, it does not matter.

This is different from charity, which can always see results, such as sponsoring a medical station, such as providing clean water to a certain country in Africa, these are more or less able to really help people Evan Bell set up this fund, obviously not for the return, but to encourage independent people in the entire film industry and music industry to put aside all constraints and spend their real energy on their works. Maybe there is no return, but after the accumulation of time, after the atmosphere of the whole circle's attention to works has settled down, there will definitely be more and more excellent works in the future. What Evan Bell created is an atmosphere, an atmosphere in which he carefully sculpts his work.

It is said that trees can be cultivated in ten years and people can be cultivated in a hundred years. The most long-term ambition of the Evan-Bell fund is to create an absolutely free environment for people to pursue their dreams, so that the imagination of art can spark. Of course, this kind of thought doesn't feel great when it is said, as if Evan Bell has to make much contribution to the human entertainment industry. But in fact, Evan Bell just felt the same way.

From Evan Bell's standpoint, whether it is in the past or this life, if there is such an opportunity, encourage him to fully focus on his own work without any additional pressure, even if it is to produce some experimental films Or the music, that's absolutely heart-warming. Chasing your dreams may only have this chance, but if you can get help and let your youth be as free as you can, so even if the result fails, everything is worth it. Therefore, Evan Bell now hopes to provide this opportunity through his own hands

There is no media attention, no Internet publicity, and no accumulation of popularity. We just rely on the internal aesthetic standards of Eleven Studios to select and sponsor filmmakers and musicians who are truly attentive.

After Eden Hudson understood what Evan Bell meant, he frowned slightly and began to ponder. According to Evan-Bell's idea, the annual sponsorship is an important issue first. The shooting of a movie must cost seven or eight million yuan. Although the production of an album is much cheaper, the cost is also high. It's not that simple. Even if it is calculated according to the number of two works and three albums per year, 20 million is very nervous.

Therefore, the amount of this fixed payment is more appropriate, and it must be discussed with Teddy Bell.

Secondly, since it is the internal selection of Eleven Studio, the selection of candidates is very important, because in the future, the objects sponsored by these funds, even if their works are not released by Eleven Studio, they will definitely have Eleven on their names. The name of the studio's eyes. Last year, there was a work called "Heart Fire" at the Berlin Film Festival~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This work was supported by the Berlin Film Festival Fund, but when it was released, it caused boos in the audience. This situation not only made "" Heart Fire" crew was very embarrassed, and the Berlin Film Festival Foundation, which sponsored the filming of the film, was not good either. Eleven Studio wants to set up a fund, and will face the same situation in the future.

"It's a big project." Eden Hudson didn't say much, just said it briefly. When he looked up, he saw Evan Bell with a smile that had nothing to do with him, and Eden Hudson only felt a little pain in his temples, "You can just hold a film festival, just like Roger Eber. That way, it's even more convenient.'

Roger Ebert, one of the most famous film critics in the world, has held the "Roger Ebert Most Neglected Film Festival" in his name since 1900, although the festival The influence of the fund is limited, but it is indeed selected according to Roger-Ebert's preferences, which coincides with Evan-Bell's conception of the fund.

Evan Bell shrugged, "Who knows, maybe it will happen one day. 'It looks like it's too easy.' Anyway, if it does happen, it is estimated that Eden Hudson and Tyler will be busy. Diebel

Obviously, Eden Hudson also quickly understood this, and raised his **** at Evan Bell.
