World-class directors in the entertainment industry

"Chairman, Wu Jing brought people from the Jingnan Military Region to the company."

After Qin Dong and Mimi walked out of China Film and Television and got into the car, Zheng Dajun reported something.

"Oh, do you know who is coming from the Jingnan Military Region?"

When Qin Dong heard this, he immediately took out his cell phone. He didn't hear any calls or text messages ringing. He checked that there were indeed no missed calls or text messages.

He raised his head and asked Zheng Dajun, the co-pilot.

"I don't know. People from the company don't know anyone from the Jingnan Military Region. They just told me this."

Zheng Dajun, who had no idea what to ask, shook his head honestly.

"Well, let's go back to the company."

Qin Dong just asked casually.

He has never told anyone in the company about his brother Qin Long, and no one in the company knows Qin Long.

Qin Dong didn't receive a call or text message from his brother, and he didn't know if he was here at all this time.

...

Daqin Group Headquarters.

President's office on the third floor.

"Brother, why didn't you make a call before coming here? You could just send a text message."

On the way back to the company in the car, Qin Dong used his mobile phone and artificial intelligence [Panda] to call up the company's internal camera footage and saw who was coming. Qin Long was among them. Therefore, after returning to the company, he asked people

Call Qin Long up first, and let the two brothers talk to each other privately.

"Xiao Dong, my visit this time is on official business, so it's not convenient to disclose it in advance."

Qin Long shook his head and didn't say much about it. Instead, he looked around the room:

"When I was waiting for you just now, I heard someone said that you built all the buildings of this company yourself?"

"How much does it cost? I haven't heard you tell my family."

Qin Dong also knew that the discipline of the army was relatively strict, and he also guessed Qin Long's taboos, so he did not go directly to the reception room, but first found the person to chat alone.

In fact, phone calls and text messages are all recorded. As long as you have enough authority, you can easily see what you said on the phone and what you said in text messages, even things that happened a few years ago.

But in his heart, Qin Dong didn't think it was hot. This matter was the same all over the world.

It's just that maybe Qin Long is a newbie, and no one in the old Qin family has been in power in the past few generations, so there are many taboos. But it will naturally be understood later that Qin Dong is too lazy to say more in this regard.

"Xiao Qian, it's not worth talking about this, otherwise Mom will talk about it again."

Qin Long also knew the character of his parents and nodded in agreement:

"Second brother, thank you for your help. I was able to level up several levels in less than a year."

Looking at the bars on his shoulders, Qin Long's face was filled with gratitude.

It's just that the words are on his lips, but nothing comes out of his mouth. The skill of verbal conversation is not what he is good at.

"If a family doesn't speak two different languages, since I have the ability to help you, if I don't help my own family, I can't help outsiders."

Qin shakes his head and doesn't care.

Nowadays, with his fame, many people who follow Qin Dong to eat have benefited. If they don't contribute to the family, wouldn't such people be heartless and indifferent between inside and outside?

The two brothers chatted for a while before Qin Dong asked Qin Long to go down first.

"Brother, you go down first, I will come back later."

Qin Dong had to take care of the issue of face. Even if the visitors in the living room on the second floor knew about the relationship between Qin Long and Qin Dong, they still had to show off.

...

The living room on the second floor.

Ten minutes later, Qin Dong brought Sisi and Mimi down.

"Director Qin, I'm here again, this time about the movie, thank you for your support."

Wu Jing was the first to stand up and come over to thank him.

From last year to now, he has been obsessed with the new movie. He has been running around, thinking about fulfilling Qin Dong's request, so that he will not worry about having no drama to film in the future.

Moreover, Qin Dong promised to invest in at least a few of his movies, and Qin Dong was responsible for all costs. Such a good thing was life-saving for Wu Jing, who was currently in an awkward position in the industry. How could he not seize it.

It's a pity that he is just a middleman and a prop, begging grandpa and suing grandma everywhere.

Qin Dong is an investor and has requirements.

The Jingnan Military Region also has requirements.

He is the only one caught in the middle, and it depends on the opinions of the bosses on both sides.

"It's easy to say that the domestic movies nowadays are mostly costumes, martial arts, or dramas, and you can't see other types of movies. This kind of sick and abnormal development is not something I want to see."

Qin Dong patted Wu Jing's shoulder and said this.

These words were not only what Qin Dong felt in his heart, but also what he said to others, not just to Wu Jing.

Movies, of course, need a hundred flowers to bloom. It’s really hard to do just a few separate genres.

In other words, the film and television industry in other small countries can develop in this way, but this is not and should not be the direction in which China's film and television industry should develop.

For example, Bangzi Country next door has few people and a small area, so the entertainment industry can be developed as a national policy.

The so-called Korean Wave was developed through the efforts of this small country.

It's a pity that even if this is the case, I can only make progress in idols and TV drama actors, but I still can't do anything in other entertainment aspects. I understand why.

"Pah...pah...pah..."

Several people in military uniforms clapped their hands with smiles on their faces.

"What Director Qin said speaks to my heart."

"I am Liu Jiancheng from the Cultural Troupe of the South Beijing Military Region."

The leading middle-aged man, about forty years old, smiled and praised.

"This is the deputy leader of our art troupe."

Although Qin Long avoided taboos, he also knew what to say at this moment. He also understood that the relationship between his ancestors for eight generations had been investigated clearly, and it was impossible not to know about his relationship with Qin Dong, so he quickly introduced it with a smile.

"Captain Liu, welcome, welcome, please take a seat."

Upon hearing this, Qin Dong smiled and stretched out his hand to shake the hand of the deputy leader named Liu Jiancheng. After being polite, he invited him to sit down.

His surname was Liu, and he didn’t know what his relationship was with Liu Shengda from Huaxia Investment Company. They both had the same surname, and Qin Dong was thoughtful.

After introducing each other and chatting for a few words, we started talking about business.

This polite rhythm seems to be a Chinese characteristic, always talking about other things first.

"Director Qin, Commander Liu, everyone."

Wu Jing looked at Qin Dong and the people from the Jingnan Military Region. None of them spoke first, but chatted about other things. At this moment, he got the feeling and took the initiative to speak. After all, this is his script, and he will be the director and starring in the future.

:

"Everyone is gathered here today for my new movie [Wolf Warrior]. I am the director and star of the movie. I will say it first. If there is anything wrong, I hope you can forgive me."

As he spoke, Wu Jing clasped his hands and gestured.

Seeing everyone nodding and indicating to continue, he put down his hand and continued:

"The cost of [Wolf Warrior] is estimated to be between RMB 100 million and RMB 150 million."

"The money is mainly spent on equipment for the movie, which requires a lot of military equipment, followed by special effects. The actors' remuneration accounts for less than 20% of the film's cost."

Qin Dong interrupted:

"Twenty percent, if the cost is 150 million, it's a lot."

It's not that he's talkative, but it's Qin Dong's inner thoughts, and it's also a foreshadowing in advance for future negotiations to gain advantage.

Wu Jing nodded, everyone knew this, so he explained:

"In total, there is indeed an actor's salary of 30 to 40 million. The reason why we need so much is because most of the salary is paid to foreign actors, who are also the villains in the film. As the leader, I plan to invite an internationally renowned actor.

For some famous actors, these foreign actors play roles such as mercenaries in the drama, so they must use foreign actors."

"If it were just domestic actors, the total salary might not even amount to 10 million yuan. I can't afford and don't plan to hire actors with high salaries."
