Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Turning on the chat software is all about congratulations.

Even Zhu Xiaozhi and others made a small video of the scene and sent it over. The shooting was messy, and there seemed to be a lot of people shouting and cheering.

Pei Huan was silent for a moment and decided to clarify the most basic question first.

Jury prize. What prize is it?

Although Pei Qian usually also watches movies, the awards ceremony for these professions is hardly involved, and at best an Oscar little golden man is known.

At this time, we can only turn to thousands of degrees of help.

Two minutes later, Pei Jian understood.

There are many awards at the Cannes Film Festival, the most important of which is the Golden Palm Award, which, like the Golden Bear Award and the Golden Lion Award of the other two festivals, is the highest international award in the film industry.

The last time a domestic film won the Golden Palm Award was in 1993, and that was the only time.

The jury grand prize is considered the second highest prize.

The last time a domestic film won this award, it dates back to 2000, which is why the headline of the news says "11 Years Later to Award”.

After looking at Kopp on Thousand Degrees, Pei Qian did not know for a moment whether he should be sad or happy.

Good thing it's not the Golden Palm Prize, it's just the second place.

Pei Qiansheng is afraid that his body will come into play again. If he really wins the Golden Palm Award, then this is a big deal!

It's not entirely impossible. After all, the more professional film critics are, the easier it is to make up their minds. Ghosts know which European and American film critics will make up a whole bunch of things when they see "A Good Tomorrow"!

But now the situation is enough to make Pei Huan speechless.

Even though it's second place, it's hard to get!

Domestic films have been trying for 11 years, and almost every year they go to Cannes to premiere films. Most of the results are accompanied by runners, and it is impossible to get a second place.

Turns out, I made a film myself, I was just trying to give the audience a poison and lose a little money, so even if the domestic box office explodes, I can still win the prize at the film festival?

There must be something wrong with the world...

……

Pei Huan got up and washed in silence and came to the company.

On the 16th floor of the magnificent luxury view, all employees work diligently and have a quiet and peaceful view.

Bae Qian took a long breath and couldn't help but celebrate herself. Fortunately, he arranged a shock in Feihuang Studio. Otherwise, all the employees of Feihuang Studio directly blocked themselves in front of their office today to congratulate themselves. Who can handle it?

At least ensure that your spring water is safe.

However, Pei Qian just stepped into the office and heard a "boom” and the bottle of champagne flew to the sky!

At the same time, the voices of all kinds of flowers and ribbons fluctuated and the entire office area instantly became lively.

“SURPRISE!! ”

“Congratulations, Mr. Pei! ”

“Beautiful Tomorrow won the award, and director Zhu Xiaozhi would like to thank you! Interview. How are you feeling? ”

Everyone brushed from their seats with flowers, ribbons, applause, and champagne.

Pei Qian looked at Assistant Xin blindly: “This..."

Assistant Xin explained with a smile: "President Pei, considering that the staff of Feihuang Studios are on vacation and that the film's main team is still abroad, we have prepared this celebration for them. ”

“After all, how can something so celebratory be fooled? ”

Pei Qian: “…"

You guys are so thoughtful.

But I don't need this kind of celebration. Shit!

There was champagne on the side, and everyone in the room had a share.

Pei Qian could only silently lift the glass and drink it up.

Hao Yun, standing beside him, was a little confused and wondered: “Uh, President Bai, shouldn't you say something first? ”

Pei Qian put the glass on the table next to him: “It's all in the past. What can I tell you? All right, let's get to work! ”

Celebrating?

Now celebrate once, Huang Sibo, they come back to celebrate once more, and you want me to suffer two more sins?

No way!

When President Pei entered his office and closed the door, Assistant Xin smiled and said to everyone: “President Pei has always had this personality. Well, let's get to work. It's not too late for Huang Sibo to celebrate when they return. ”

Wu Bin, on the other hand, was beside him and quickly recorded in a small book.

“Indeed, after such a long time, Pei's character remains the same. ”

“I heard before that this was the case when President Bae had a great success with Fortress at Sea, just a symbolic sip of champagne to celebrate and immediately put himself into the next job. ”

“When I heard it from Bao Xu, I thought it was just an exaggeration of art. ”

“After all, even if those who succeed don't lie on the credit books of the past, don't skip even a brief celebration? ”

“Now it seems true, it is not exaggerated at all, and Bae is always like this. ”

“Well… this paragraph seems to be written into Tenda Spirit's annotations and sent to Choi Gen to consider how this material should be used. ”

……

In the office, Pei Qian took out his phone and started looking at the unread information on 99 +.

The vast majority of the contents were congratulations. The contents were uniform, and Pei Huan ignored them silently.

I can't come back at all, and if the other party opens up a conversation again and blows off "A Good Tomorrow," isn't that a secondary injury to President Pei?

So Pei Qian thought about sending a circle of friends later, saying thank you very much, but too much information to reply to, blocking new messages from the circle of friends, this is the past.

Flipping over, Pei Jian suddenly stopped.

His eyes stopped on a message often sent by Lin.

“President Pei! Congratulations! After a while, you should buy me a drink! Although winning the award is too hard for the film itself, how can I help you choose to send the film to Cannes? ”

Pei Qian: “???? ”

Quickly typed back: “Did you choose to send the film? ”

Not long after that, Lin always replied.

“President Pei, why are you replying to the message now? Wasn't it too high last night? ”

“Of course, I sent it to someone. Cannes has always preferred only films that premiered at his own film festival. If there was no way to light the door, they wouldn't accept the judgment at all. ”

“But President Bae, I'm not inviting you to do this. I'm very honest. I didn't think that" A Good Tomorrow "would really win the prize. I just watched this movie in a foreign box office. It was too faint, so I helped a little. ”

“If you can win the prize, it's mainly President Bae, you're a good filmmaker, you completely conquered the jury, otherwise the relationship won't be hard to use anymore. ”

Pei Qian: “…"

Got the dog!

You're behind all this!

Pei Huan seriously considered, can you find a way to arrange pipe loss within Shenhua Group?

Like in Shenhua Film and Television's president's office?

Things in the company are clear, but things outside the company are still blind!

“That really failed your kindness. As far as I know," Good Tomorrow "seems to be performing too poorly in the overseas box office. Is it about to leave soon?” Pei Qian typed back with a dark face.

He is mainly worried about two things, first of all the split contract signed with Alley Island, the award-winning movie, there must be a large number of new audiences to watch online, and it is also a revenue; second, maybe foreign video websites will have to spend a lot of money to buy "Good Tomorrow" overseas online copyright.

As for the overseas box office, "Good Tomorrow" was shown at the beginning of the month. The slotting rate is not high, and the box office performance is not good. It is expected to leave soon.

Lin Chang: “Exit? Latest news, after winning the" Good Tomorrow "award, the screen has been painted in overseas media! The major cinemas have been extended by one month, and the slotting rate has risen. ”

“How could a film like this, which won the jury prize, be dismissed because of its own commerciality? The estate wants to make more money while it's hot! ”

Pei Qian: “…"

I asked him why.

What a blessing, the evil is not alone!

I thought "A Good Tomorrow" was a false alarm when it was shown overseas, but now it's good. After a film festival, things have all changed!

Pei Huan felt incredible. This cycle was a sudden increase in stress.

Where's the money?

This movie makes a wave of money domestically, a wave of money abroad, a wave of money in the exhibition, a wave of money online... and it's over!

Pei Huan felt that this was one of his most failed investments.

Uh... no, it could be a second failure.

The first prize of failure should always be attributed to the Lonely Desert Highway and the $50,000.

Lin Chang continued: “Also, President Bai, in two days, the second round of interpretation of your movie should be about to start. Are you ready to be shot at rainbow butt? ”

Pei Qian: "? ”

Lin Chang: “Sometimes, before you go out of the country, the good stuff is evaluated as one, after you go out of the country, that's another evaluation. ”

“I'm particularly curious right now, because many people have thought that" A Good Tomorrow "is a very unusual shoot, and people don't like it, and foreigners don't like it. But now that Beautiful Tomorrow has been awarded in Cannes, what can I say? ”

“Well, President Bae, keep happy. Remember to buy me a drink when I get to Jingzhou! ”

Looking at the chat record with Lin Chang, Pei Qian fell into silence.

What a bald man!

……

Meanwhile, touch the Fishnet Cahandong University store.

“Hello, I'm Xiao Peng, head of Fishnet Cafe, who are you? ”

Liang Qingfan shook his hand with Xiao Peng: “My name is Liang Qingfan and I am the designer of Bae's lazy apartment project. ”

“Oh, please sit down. ”

Xiao Peng and Liang Qingfan sat by the window in the coffee area and the waiter brought up two cups of coffee.

After a few words of chills, Liang Qingfan said his intention.

“General Shaw, I wonder if you'd be interested in changing the decoration style for a fish net cafe? ”

After completing the lazy apartment project, Liang Qingfan has recently been playing with water in Jingzhou Mountain, gathering inspiration and waiting for President Pei's next instructions.

But he hasn't heard from me for a long time, and he feels a little bored.

Later, Liang Qingfan decided to step on a point first.

General Pei has so many industries under his control, including fish net cafes, fish takeaways, hosted gyms, lazy apartments, etc., all in need of renovation.

If you can take all of this on board, and design a few popular and well-known cases, it will be critical to raise your reputation.

Moreover, he was well aware that Tenda's department was not short of money, and that there would certainly be no loss in design fees.

So today he snuck up to the fish net cafe to meet Xiao Peng, ready to get to know him in advance, will be more convenient when working together in the future.

Xiao Peng thought about it: “Not needed for now. Touch Fishnet Coffee 1.0 and 2.0, consumer acceptance is high, it may not be appropriate to change the style suddenly; Touch Fishnet Coffee 3.0, is currently in renovation, it is not easy to modify for now. ”

“Of course, I will definitely be in touch with you the first time if you are going to launch Fishnet 4.0 later. ”

“But I do know a place that needs help. Why don't you take a look at the Palpitations Hostel? ”

“I'll give you the number of the person in charge there, Chen, just contact him directly. ”
