Senior Superstar

In fact, Li Shixin didn't pay too much attention to the artist composition of Huaqi Film and Television.

Unlike other artists who have been trying their best to PY after joining the company, Xin Ye has no impression of other artists and directors under his banner except those who have conflicts with him.

After all, the strong don't need useless social interaction.

What's more, based on Li Shixin's situation at the beginning, it was useless to pay.

Before a person has reached the corresponding level, most of the business operations are meaningless.

To use the popular saying nowadays, don't force yourself to be in a different circle.

So listening to Li Juan's introduction of the big artists who came to participate in the project meeting in the fourth quarter, Li Shixin was stunned most of the time, except for sporadic impressions of the works of a few of them.

However, during the introduction along the way, Li Shixin also knew a lot about the current situation of the film and television company.

At present, Huaqi Film and Television adopts its own strategy of focusing on training and looking to the future, and sincerely cooperating with popular directors and actors, focusing on the current artist strategy.

The company has about 20 contracted directors, most of whom are newcomers.

Director is a late-stage career. Directing a movie depends not only on talent, but also on experience and technology immersed in it for a long time.

While these new directors have not achieved remarkable results, the company has in-depth cooperation with many deadly domestic directors.

The so-called cooperative relationship refers to the fact that the director brings his own script, the company is responsible for coordinating the investment, and after the work is released, it will be divided according to the agreed ratio. But for this type of work, artists under Huaqi must be given priority when casting actors.

Among these co-directors, Feng Qiangxiao and Li Zhenhua, who are well-known in recent years, Gu He, who is famous for shooting war films, and the new animation director Zhao Qing, who was released in the same file as Li Shixin.

When Li Shixin came to the conference room led by Li Juan, he found that it was already full of people.

Standing at the door, after Li Juan coughed lightly, he led Li Shixin to the upper position of the conference table to meet everyone's eyes and stood still.

After looking around at everyone for a week, he smiled and introduced Li Shixin.

"Good morning, teachers. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the company's fourth-quarter project discussion meeting. Before the meeting starts, let me introduce the person next to me. Li Shixin, Teacher Li."

In fact, Li Juan's opening seems a bit redundant in the current environment.

Half a year ago, there must have been many people in the room who didn't know Li Shixin. But with the box office hit of "Only Love", Li Shixin appeared in various entertainment news and talk shows, even if the news in the room was blocked, most of them were familiar with each other.

After all, such a thing as an investment of three million yuan to create a box office of one billion yuan is a rare thing in the director circle, and it is not impossible for a macho to do it.

But even knowing Li Shixin's situation, everyone in the room behaved differently.

As soon as Li Juan finished speaking, a young man in the corner stood up excitedly.

"Hello, Mr. Li, I'm Zhao Qing, the director of "Demon Contract". Although I haven't directed works with realistic themes, after reading your previous works, I like your style very much."

Seeing Zhao Qing's excited look, the others also praised him politely.

No matter how dissatisfied secretly, it is undeniable that Li Shixin is currently Huaqi's most popular artist director.

On the big screen, it must be passable.

Anyway, good words don’t cost money, right?

Seeing everyone being so polite to Li Shixin, Li Juan smiled lightly and changed the subject;

"It seems that everyone already knows Mr. Li. Today, Mr. Li came with me, not just as a director to participate in our project negotiation in the fourth quarter. Last night, I received a call from Mr. Xiao From now on, Teacher Li will participate in the company's next film and television projects as a content consultant and film and television producer. I hope that in the future, Teacher Li can sincerely cooperate with you and work together to make our content better and stronger."

After Li Juan finished his announcement, the cheerful atmosphere in the conference room just now froze.

Some people frowned before they could stop the smirks they had piled up so hard.

In the silence, Li Shixin chuckled, pulled out his chair and sat on the left side of Li Juan.

drop!

Received the negative applause value of [Conflict], 2612 points!

Li Shixin couldn't help laughing secretly when he heard a reminder that the applause value was credited from next to his ear.

Everyone felt like they had eaten shit, which he could roughly understand.

Content consultant is actually a pretty vague position.

In this position, if you want to release the water, you only need to put a name in the column of the producer of each work.

But if you really want to be serious, there are many things that can be managed.

For nothing else, the content consultant of the film and television company is directly responsible to the director of the film and television company.

It represents the employer's father.

In the past, it was said that directors do not like the management to interfere with the filming of the film. The management mentioned are two positions; The other is the content consultant. As a representative of the management, this consultant has the right to ask the director to change the script or even edit it!

"Mr. Li, it's not right. Although Mr. Li's recent box office performance is good, I think it's a bit troublesome to let him serve as a content consultant."

Just as Li Shixin was watching his nose, his nose, his nose, his heart, and his mind, a figure opposite him raised his hand.

"Director Gu, what do you mean by trouble?"

Seeing that Gu He, who has cooperated with Huaqi Film and Television many times, raised objections, Li Juan asked with a smile.

"It's not interesting. I just think that if Mr. Li is the consultant, then we don't need to shoot our scenes. Director Lin can let Mr. Li re-edit the scenes that have already been released. When it comes to our crew that hasn't started filming yet , so those of us can’t become executive directors?”

Seeing Li Shixin frowned, and Li Juan's complexion no longer looked good, someone immediately said softly;

"Hey, hey, Director Gu was joking. Mr. Li had a normal communication before! Yes, a normal communication. But Mr. Li, I think Mr. Li is so old, and being a content consultant is hard work. The company Here, isn't there anyone who is more youthful and vigorous?"

But even if he breaks his shoes, the meaning and position are clearly expressed-Li Shixin is a consultant and disagrees.

Li Shixin, who lowered his head and nailed his fingernails, smiled slightly when he saw the crowd muttering in unison.

The moment Li Juan said that the company decided to serve as the content consultant himself, he had already anticipated this situation now.

In all fairness, as a director, I definitely hope to get the most room for manipulation in the work.

But just right, I just got slapped in the face by Lin Gangren. Excavating the grave and whipping the corpse of "Snow Line Climbing", which was released on this product, staged a face-slapping performance.

It is reasonable for this group of directors to have such a big resistance now.

Faced with this situation, Li Shixin sat upright, cleared his throat, and said;

"Don't worry, everyone. In fact, I was also surprised that the company asked me to serve as this content consultant. But I thought, this is the case. I have also worked as a director, and I can understand everyone's concerns. Now as a consultant, everyone's I am worried that I can empathize with you. Let me express my opinion here. I will communicate with you in private if you have any questions and ideas about the project content. I hope you will not have such a big resistance, although this consultant put me on the sidelines with everyone. From different standpoints, but according to my understanding, we can reach the same goal by different routes. After all, making a good work is the same goal of everyone and the company.”

Obviously, Li Shixin's words are not convincing.

Facing the steps Li Shixin had found for himself and the others, Gu He still grunted.

"Ms. Li, that's what you said, and it sounds beautiful. But you are representing the company now, and you are talking standing up. We are attracting investment and beggars, so we have to kneel and be obedient.

You said to communicate in private, so if your ideas differ from ours, what will you do?

If it does not involve capital appropriation and other things, then there is nothing to say, we can discuss it.

If the discussion fails and you end up modifying the project on behalf of the company, then what you said just now. I will take you as a fart.

Hi, I might be a little rushed when I say this. You are mature and prudent, so you can take more care and don't be angry. "

Seeing Gu He holding a gun and holding a stick, the smile on Li Shixin's face became brighter and brighter.

The old man is not angry.

But your number is gone.

If you don't talk about disagreements, what kind of consultant is that?

You just say you lack an assistant director who serves tea and water? !

Although most of the people present Li Shixin had only heard about it, they had never really understood it. But Li Shixin still knew about Gu He's situation.

This guy was born in the Beijing circle, and when he debuted, he became popular with a few film and television dramas that reflected the lives of small people and the changes of the big era. Later, relying on the support of seniors in the Beijing circle, he directed several war films in a row, and achieved outstanding box office results in the past two years.

Ordinarily, this guy has absolutely no director skills.

The level of several war films can be regarded as the top in the country.

Domestic war films have stayed below the level of divine dramas for a long time, so that they can stand up to big scenes and make war films feel passionate and passionate, and it is not a problem to win a box office of two to three billion at will.

However, the box office of the last two war films of this product did not exceed 1.5 billion.

Why?

Because every time, this guy has to come up with some accidents that ruin the three views, such as wearing kimonos when traveling in Japan, and going to foreign military cemeteries to destroy the three views, completely ruining the popularity of the audience.

Several times in a row, many viewers saw that the film was directed by him, so they directly chose to block it.

In a word, the ass is crooked.

Facing Gu He's sarcasm at this moment, Li Shixin chuckled:

"Director Gu is so afraid that others will get involved in your work. Could it be that there are some private goods in the next work? Don't worry, I will not interfere with your film. When the final edit is finished, I will let the comrades in radio and television Just take a look. They say yes and I have nothing to say."

"you!"

Li Shixin's calm counterattack caused Gu He to slap the table.

"Hey hey hey hey! Two teachers, don't get excited."

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Li Juan hurriedly got up to mediate.

When Li Shixin entered the door just now, Li Juan still wanted to see a good show. But Li Shixin directly touched Gu He's heart with a few words. As the director, he couldn't stand this scene anymore.

"Let's talk about this matter later. Let's not talk about this at today's project negotiation meeting. Everyone knows that the revenue of more than a dozen works we released in the first three quarters was not bad. In the fourth quarter, the Spring Festival schedule and next year's summer vacation will be decided. file company performance.

Therefore, the top management attaches great importance to our batch of projects. We are required to focus on content, embrace the market, and do our best to cater to the viewing habits of current audiences.

In addition, the higher authorities have also put forward requirements for our work. According to the latest "Several Opinions on Promoting the Healthy Development of the Film and Television Industry" released by radio and television, we are required to combine the background of the new era and promote the positive energy of society.

This creates a problem. "

Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted to him, Li Juan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and asked the assistant behind him to send the prepared meeting materials to everyone.

"We have not yet completed the six political propaganda tasks entrusted to us by the higher authorities in the second quarter of this year to reflect the models of the times and praise the works of sacrifice. In the second and third quarters, we filmed "Heart of Steel" and "The Great Doctor" "I, Film Cop" and "Song of the Highway" are four realistic-themed movies and big online movies. There is still one short, everyone here, do you have any scripts that meet the requirements, or ideas for directing such realistic themes?"

"Ah."

As soon as Li Juan finished speaking, Gu He, who was leaning on the back of the chair with his shoulders in his arms, sneered and picked Li Shixin with his chin.

"What's the point here? Isn't Mr. Li a good-natured young man who is close to Radio and Television? In my opinion, Mr. Li is the one to do this job."
