World-class directors in the entertainment industry

On the evening of December 19, 2011.

Kyoto CPPCC Auditorium.

[Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol] Premiere in China.

Officially kicked off.

On the red carpet at night, reporters and movie fans came early and surrounded both sides of the venue.

The Kyoto Hotel a few miles away.

"Tom, you are last in line, I will leave first."

Qin Dong smiled and warned Tom.

This time on the red carpet, Tom still walked with Fan Liangliang.

"Okay, Qin."

For the finale, Tom did not reject it, but liked it very much, so he was naturally even happier that Qin Dong was not competing with him to steal the limelight.

Qin Dong looked at Tom's expression and smiled. He was a star under the fluorescent lights. Qin Dong didn't bring Elizabeth with him on the red carpet this time.

This woman was arranged to go with the male costar of the crew, [Hawkeye].

Qin Dong had to take Sisi and Mimi away, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get into bed when he got home at night.

"Tom, I hope your Chinese language didn't let me down..."

The moment he led Sisi and Mimi out, Qin Dong paused, turned around and said with a smile.

"Oh, Qin, don't worry, since I promised you, I promise to do my best."

Tom's confident tone and expression made Qin Dong feel at ease.

Although it's all about making money, working hard to make money can at least make the Chinese people feel more comfortable.

This is why Qin Dong originally told Tom to learn as many sentences as possible. Don't just learn "Hello", "I am..", "Thank you" and "I love you". Three or two sentences are meaningless. They are just for making money.

For the occasion.

They are no different from those celebrities who come to China to make money when they have no money, and then go back to their own country for consumption after making money. Maybe it is a little better, but...

Qin Dong didn't want to say more about this kind of thing.

...

"Dear, one of the movies that Bangzi Country CJ Company cooperated with our branch there has already been released."

On the way to the CPPCC auditorium, Sisi thought about business and started talking to Qin Dong.

Mimi's big eyes wandered, this was Sisi's job, she couldn't learn it, and she didn't want to quit the acting industry.

"Which movie?"

Qin Dong asked curiously.

I wrote a few scripts at the beginning, but I never asked about them. People from the company were in charge, and they didn't pay attention to this matter.

"The movie about [The Lonely Agent], also known as [Uncle]."

Sisi also knew the man’s character, so she introduced him directly:

"This movie has received nearly 7 million viewers in Bangzi Country. It is not popular there to count the movie based on the box office amount, but based on the number of people."

Qin Dong nodded and asked curiously:

"How much is the box office?"

I can’t understand the head count alone.

Sisi smiled and said:

"They have a unified ticket price. I only found out after asking. There are nearly 7 million moviegoers, which is about 230 million yuan."

"I took a look at the report of the branch over there."

"The investment in this movie is not large, less than 10 million yuan when converted into RMB."

"According to our contract with CJ Company, the profit is 50/50, excluding costs, taxes, etc., our company's profit is approximately 60 million yuan."

When Qin Dong heard the figure of 60 million, his expression was very pale:

"Sixty million, that's it."

When Mimi heard the man's tone and looked at his expression, her big eyes flashed with water. It was so easy for this talented man she loved to make money now.

Sixty million yuan, so much money, yet you don’t care so much.

Sisi didn't have this idea. After she managed Qin Dong's company, she naturally knew all the company's profitable projects, all movies, TV series, and the data of each one. She knew that it was very easy for men to make money, and every time

The movie made a lot of money:

"Although 60 million is not much, Bangzi Country is small after all. There are only 50 million people in a place as big as the palm of your hand. With this data, it is enough."

"And the cost of the movie is very low. Currently, CJ Company wants to show the movie here."

"I contacted the company, but I'm holding back for the time being. It's up to you, dear, to decide on this matter."

Small places are envious of China's big market and want to come in.

Qin Dong was not surprised by this either.

In other words, in the entire Southeast Asia, which country does not envy the Chinese market? The entertainment circles of many countries want to enter, but unfortunately it is not that simple.

"Forget it, let the movie come in while we wait for the co-production."

Qin Dong thought for a while and shook his head in refusal.

Although it is a film produced by his own company, the script was written to deal with the Bangzi Kingdom, and Qin Dong also had to take into account the opinions of many people, so he could not just include any film for the sake of money.

This is different from "Mission: Impossible". The first three films in this series have been released in China, so the fourth film will not cause any criticism if it is released in China again.

"Okay, I will reject CJ Company in the future."

Sisi didn't care what Qin Dong thought. Anyway, if the man said he wouldn't let him in, then he would refuse.

The man was not short of money, and Sisi didn't care much about money, so the matter was settled.

"Sisi, how are the preparations for the props for my new movie going?"

When Qin Dong saw that Mimi remained silent, his thoughts changed and he changed the topic.

"This..."

Sisi glanced at Mimi and knew why the man asked.

As my best friend, when the three of us are together, I always feel like I can't let go. I am mostly silent, which is very different from Mimi's usual personality.

"Dear, the company has decided to fund a model."

"It costs tens of millions. Instead of renting, we spent our own money to build it."

Qin Dong was stunned, this was something he didn't expect:

"Oh, why did you decide this?"

Sisi smiled and explained:

"Dear, during the company meeting, everyone felt that there will be a lot of opportunities for this kind of props in future movies, and the props can be stored for a long time and will not be scrapped after ten or eight years, so it is worth investing.

Buy and build.”

Qin Dong didn't comment, but it was a matter decided by his woman, so he didn't say anything.

In fact, it is not necessary, because I will definitely exchange it for artificial intelligence in the future, and then I can produce any special effects without spending any money.

But this kind of secretive thing is Qin Dong's secret, a big secret. Qin Dong has no intention of telling anyone, including Sisi and Mimi.

So Sisi, including the company's senior management, decided this way. According to their ideas, it was indeed right.

This kind of model will definitely have many opportunities to appear in future movies. It can be built at once and can be used for many years. Overall, it is very cost-effective.

If other domestic entertainment companies shoot similar movies in the future and need props in this area, they can rent them to these people.

"Okay, you can make your own decision. If the time is arranged, I will be able to shoot the movie in a few months."

I have shot most of "My Love from the Star" and it will be finished in another month at most.

Including post-production, it will be finished in less than two months.

After finishing, Qin Dong will start filming the movie as soon as possible.

"Mimi, how is your research on the movie script going?"

"Ah... I, ah, fortunately, I have already studied it a long time ago, and I also got detailed training from the performance teacher at the school."

Mimi reacted half a beat later, talked about the movie, and laughed.

This man wrote a movie specifically for her, and she was very attentive and had arranged it long ago.
