World-class directors in the entertainment industry

China Film.

"squeak..."

Four cars drove over, and a few bodyguards in suits got out of the cars and opened the doors.

Qin Dong took Mimi out of the car.

"Director Qin, you are here. People from Bona, Undercover, Warner, and CAA are all here."

Assistant Sun from China Film Group was waiting at the door. When he saw Qin Dong arriving, he stepped forward and whispered.

"Well, Assistant Sun, please excuse me. Let's go in."

Qin Dong had already informed all the partners in advance.

This kind of thing cannot be decided on the spur of the moment. We had already said hello a few days ago.

After all, there are foreign companies, so we have to let them come over to watch. Otherwise, how can we negotiate a new film contract? Whether the other party agrees to invest in the next film is another matter. Once informed, we will let you know, and the [source code] will be released.

These investors also have the right and need to watch it and know what the film will look like.

Especially at Warner, they can't wait, because it is the first time to cooperate with Qin Dong. Although CAA is involved, a person like Qin Dong who takes over the script, director, producer, editing rights, etc. is not available in Hollywood.

Common.

Even the top directors are sometimes restricted by their investors and producers.

A screening room inside China Film Studio.

At this time, more than a dozen people have made it.

"Mr. Han, Director, Director Qin is here."

Assistant Sun pushed open the door of the movie theater and walked in first.

"Oh, our great director is here."

Gao Liang was chatting with his boss, as well as people from domestic undercovers, Bona, foreign Warners, and CAA. At this time, he heard that the real owner was coming and stood up first.

"Haha... Director Gao."

Qin Dong pulled Mimi and walked in. The first one he saw was Director Gao, an acquaintance. You're welcome. He just turned around and saw the person behind him:

"Hey, Mr. Han, hello, hello."

Although it was the first time they met, Qin Dong knew this person's name very well, so he quickly stepped forward and extended his hand.

"Director Qin, hello. I've long wanted to see you, a rising star in the director world in our country. Ever since your second film [Those Years], things always came up when the time came.

The times were missed.”

Mr. Han held Qin Dong's hand and looked at the young man.

He was telling the truth. He had wanted to meet and chat with Qin Dong a long time ago, but the time had always been delayed. This was the first time the two of them had met.

"Mr. Han, you're welcome. It's probably the boy who came to visit you, not mine. I'll definitely come here more often in the future."

Qin Dong followed the pole and climbed up.

"Haha, you are really good at talking. Come on, the guests have already arrived. As landlords, we cannot ignore them. You go and say hello first."

Mr. Han smiled. It was not appropriate to say more at this time. He signaled to Qin Dong that there were other guests.

Qin Dong nodded, faced the other guests and a few acquaintances, smiled and said loudly:

"Welcome Martin, Mr. Yu, Mr. Wang, Mr. Martin, who has come from afar. Please introduce this person to me."

The secret agent and Bona's boss both smiled and nodded. Without saying anything more, Martin Bob, the president of CCA, came. He was accompanied by a tall, middle-aged white man:

"Oh, dear Qin, it's not easy to see you once. Come on, let me introduce you to John Carr, the head of Warner's production department."

The middle-aged white man, John Carr, smiled and stretched out his hand:

"Director, this is our first meeting, and I think it will definitely not be our last."

Qin Dong smiled and held the other person's hand:

"Hello, John, welcome to China. As long as Warner is willing to cooperate, it will definitely not be the last time we meet."

Martin smiled and looked at the women around Qin Dong. This young man really liked women. He was accompanied by women wherever he went. He asked with a smile:

"Qin, why don't you introduce to us the beautiful lady next to you?"

Qin Dong glanced at the reserved Mimi, smiled and shook his head:

"Oh, Martin, you just need to know that she is the producer of my future movies, forget about the rest, haha."

"Ha ha..."

Not only did Martin laugh at this, but everyone else also laughed. Even people from the local company who knew what Qin Dong said through translation also laughed.

It's so normal for a man to like women, no one makes a fuss about it, not to mention Qin Dong is unmarried.

The group of people chatted for a while, and Qin Dong only greeted these few people.

As for the people brought by these people, Qin Dong just nodded and did not want to ask these people's names or say more.

"Mr. Han, do you think we should watch the movie separately? I brought two language versions."

Qin Dong saw that the small talk was almost over and asked about serious matters.

"this..."

Mr. Han thought for a while:

"Forget it, no need to separate, just watch foreign language movies. Guests are welcome to do as they please. Since the guests are here, we landlords can't be stingy, so we can just watch the subtitles by ourselves."

Qin Dong smiled, that's fine too.

"Army."

This time Qin Dong didn't bring many bodyguards, only eight, and they all came in at this time.

Dajun was carrying a password box in his hand. Two bodyguards followed him and took him to the screening room. He wanted to watch it in person.

This is Qin Dong's request. It's still early for the film to be released. Before that, the source of the film must not be leaked.

Before the lights in the theater went out, Qin Dong stood up:

"Pah...pah..."

He slapped everyone hard several times:

"Everyone, I hope everyone will turn off all electronic devices. Thank you for your cooperation."

He repeated it again in a foreign language.

Everyone looked at Qin Dong's serious expression and nodded slowly to cooperate. After a moment's thought, they understood that this was to prevent the source of the film from being leaked.

...

The theater lights go out and [Source Code] officially begins.

In the darkness, Mimi held Qin Dong's hand. Only at this time did she feel relaxed.

In the past, when facing the giants in the industry and large foreign companies, I felt very restrained and couldn't let go.

Qin Dong firmly shook the woman's hand and comforted her.

...

The video begins...

The camera overlooks the buildings of Hong Kong Island from high altitude, passing by some famous scenic spots one by one.

Qin Dong is very familiar with this operation. Foreigners like to take photos of their own country like this.

But when it comes to shooting foreign films, we can shoot wherever we are lagging behind. If we don’t have them, we still have to build them. Anyway, we are very disgusting, promoting ourselves and belittling others.

This is the reason why Qin Dong asked CAA to package the script for domestic filming by arranging his own filming.

If you expect foreigners to take pictures, they will definitely not do well. They are either poor or chaotic. In short, they will take pictures wherever they fall behind.

The scene skips across the river and approaches a moving train.

"Sean, Sean..."

A female voice sounded in the ears of a man who was sleeping against the train window.

...

"Sean? No, my surname is not Xiao. My surname is Ke. My name is Curt. I am the helicopter captain of the United Nations peacekeeping force sent by the country."

...

"Colonel Curt, welcome back."

...

"The bomb was on the ceiling of the train restroom and was detonated by a mobile phone."

...

"Am I dead? Colonel Gu, tell me, am I dead?"

...

"Gu Wen, please, let me go back one more time. When the eight minutes are up, unplug the tube that keeps me alive."

...

"When Lily woke up, she was wearing a little dress and a cloak, holding five cards in her hand..."

...

"Tell him everything will be fine."

...

The lights came on immediately, and there were no subsequent subtitles. This was not an official screening.

"Pah...pah..."

Everyone stood up and looked at Qin Dong, smiled and clapped.
