0041【Remember to applaud】

Su Ya couldn't understand how profitable "Legend of Hot Blood" was, but she couldn't stand Wan Xiaohu's affirmation.Besides, Dandelion Film Company is a small company, and it relies on "Waiting Alone" to make money. Su Ya is still willing to believe Wan Xiaohu's words.

"How are you going to invest?"

Wan Xiaohu thought for a while and said: "We don't know how to manage games, so we can only find someone to partner with us to make the game "Legend of Hot Blood". Of course, this is not the top priority now. To complete the development of "Legend 2", we need more We can wait for the company's profits to arrive in the account. Now there are two things that need to be dealt with urgently."

"Which two things?"

"One is to talk to the film channel about the TV premiere rights of "Waiting Alone", and the other is to start my second film project."

Su Ya was puzzled: "Didn't you say that the company's money is not used to invest in movies?"

"Yes, but I don't plan to let Dandelion invest. My new film project may require a larger investment. I plan to find more powerful funds to invest. We can just produce it."

"What kind of method is this?"

Wan Xiaohu said with a smile: "Using the analogy of TV programs, this is called 'separation of production and broadcasting'. We are responsible for producing movies, while investors are responsible for broadcasting movies, that is, we sell the distribution rights of future movies in exchange for them. Investing in my film, the copyright of the film is still in our own hands."

Production and distribution are two concepts. Like Yu Dong’s Bonahua, it focuses on distribution rather than film production, while many film studios specialize in filming and directly sell copyrights instead of distribution.

China's commercialization has just begun, and state-owned studios still monopolize production and distribution. However, in a mature film industry system, such as Hollywood, many film production and distribution are completed by different companies.For example, the production company of "Transformers" is DreamWorks, but the global distribution company is Paramount. This is a typical "separation of production and broadcasting" in the film industry.

With such an explanation, Su Ya can easily understand: "Well, have you figured out where to attract investment? Also, what's the name of your new movie and what is it about?"

Naturally, there is no need to hide anything from Su Ya, Wan Xiaohu said, "This movie is called "Butterfly Effect"..."

"The Butterfly Effect" is an American movie released in 2004, directed by Eric Brace, it tells the story of the hero Ivan, many terrible things happened to him when he was a child, but he always suffers short-term amnesia things to forget.When he grew up, he gradually remembered that he had done a lot of wrong things, and he wanted to make up for it all.

He found that by focusing on his own day, he could use his current consciousness to sneak into his childhood, change all unfortunate occurrences, make up for his mistakes, and especially hope to finally be together with Casey, who he had a crush on back then.However, he went back to the past again and again, only to find that no matter how big the change is, it will only make the reality worse.

Knowing that nothing should have happened, Ivan was finally overwhelmed and decided to sacrifice for love.

So his consciousness descended into his mother's belly and strangled his unborn self with the umbilical cord.This is the ending originally set by the director. Later, the distribution company felt that this ending would make the audience unhappy, so they made three other endings. "Butterfly Effect" at the time had no famous director, no star, no publicity, and low investment cost, but it still managed to earn almost [-] million US dollars at the box office, especially the DVD sales, which were extremely popular. It can be said that word of mouth and money Win-win.

This time Wan Xiaohu intends to change the environment of "The Butterfly Effect" and use the Chinese background to explain the story.

Because the script hadn't been written yet, Wan Xiaohu simply told Su Ya a rough plot.

However, Su Ya was still amazed: "You have such a brain, such a good idea, I am now looking forward to the effect of the movie."

Wan Xiaohu is not as optimistic as Su Ya: "This script is only tentative. You know, our state-owned radio and television may not pass the review because of some too mysterious settings in the script." The original "Butterfly Effect" has some fatalism This is likely to be regarded as negative thinking in China, and it may be regarded as superstitious in the past and now.

Of course, Wan Xiaohu will inject a more perfect finale into his version of "Butterfly Effect", reduce the scenes that will be clicked, and then unblock the radio and television, it should not be difficult to pass.

……

After communicating with Su Ya, Wan Xiaohu returned to Nortel to continue his student career, and took time to perfect the script of "The Butterfly Effect". "The Butterfly Effect" needs to be nationalized, and many plots need to be revised, and some international elements must also be retained.After all, it is really a waste of such a good movie to only release it in the Mainland.

Wan Xiaohu still wants to rely on this movie to impact the world. He is confident that after his own improvement, the movie will definitely be more perfect than the original version.

Time flies, the 5th Beijing College Student Film Festival officially ended all screenings on May 7, and the voting on the SOO website also closed. "Waiting Alone" won the most popular film among college students without any surprise.As for the most popular actress among college students, Yao Chen ranked No.3 and lost to Xu Fan in "A Sigh" directed by Feng Xiaogang, and the most popular actor among college students, Huang Haibo lost No.4. It was given to Pu Cunxin of "Bathing" directed by Zhang Yang.

The afternoon before, the organizing committee had called Wan Xiaohu and invited him to take the crew of "Waiting Alone" to Beijing TV studio to attend the closing ceremony and awards ceremony of the film festival on May 5.

That afternoon, Wan Xiaohu and others gathered in the small auditorium of Nortel, and everyone was dressed up.

Wan Xiaohu also put on a suit he had just bought, pomade was applied in the middle of the night, combed meticulously, a bright red tie added a little personality to himself, and the leather shoes were also polished: "How, how? So, my outfit today, is it cool?"

Miaopu was wearing a cheongsam today, her figure was enchanting and eye-catching, she looked at Wan Xiaohu carefully and said: "It's not bad, it's so handsome."

"Sister Miao, your flattery is too exaggerated. Brother Tiger has a good temperament, but he doesn't have anything to do with being handsome." Yao Chen murmured aside.

Wan Xiaohu became angry: "Yao Chen, what are you talking about? Can you speak human language? You don't want to go on TV?"

Yao Chen raised his head: "Wealth and honor cannot be promiscuous, poverty cannot be moved, and might cannot be subdued!"

"That's awesome, if you dare to fight against me, you will be banned tomorrow!" Wan Xiaohu blew and stared.

"Oh, I'm so scared, Brother Haibo, help me."

Huang Haibo was dressed in denim and blew his hair: "Since ancient times, heroes have saved beauties. Ma'am, are you a beauty?"

Yao Chen rolled his eyes angrily: "You don't have eyes. This girl is only twenty-eight years old, and she looks as beautiful as a flower. Do you think I am a beauty?"

Li Xia clicked his tongue: "It's just that the mouth is too big."

"Go to hell! Dead shrimp!" Yao Chen jumped up and grabbed Li Xia's neck.

Wan Xiaohu carefully pressed down his hair with his hands, and then said: "Okay, don't make a fuss, we will go to the Beijing TV station in a while, and everyone should be more energetic. When I win the award, remember to take the lead in applauding..."

----------

"Audience friends, welcome to watch the whole process live broadcast by Beijing TV, the closing ceremony and award ceremony of the [-]th Beijing University Student Film Festival. Hosting a large-scale event."

Sitting in the 800-square-meter Jingcheng TV live broadcast room, Wan Xiaohu felt indescribably nervous, and the crew members around him were also very nervous. No one had ever experienced such a battle.Although there were no heavyweight star directors at the awards ceremony, the stars were still shining brightly.

The crew of "Born Out" has actors Li Xuejian and Li Youbin; the crew of "Bathing" has director Zhang Yang, actors Pu Cunxin and Jiang Wu; the crew of "Tell Your Secret" has great director Huang Jianxin and actor Wang Zhi; the crew of "Very Summer" has Actor Pan Yueming is not well-known now, but he will have great achievements in the future; Feng Xiaogang, the director of "A Sigh" crew, did not come, but his wife Xu Fan, Zhang Guoli, and Liu Bei all came.

The first award at the opening was the most popular actor among college students. Pu Cunxin came on stage and gave a speech.

Wan Xiaohu didn't pay attention to the subsequent awards. He is a newcomer, and his movies are so simple, he dare not compete with others for best director, best feature film, etc. He came for the most popular film among college students, and won this award , which is much more meaningful than other awards, proving that movies are the most popular.

The awards ceremony went on quickly, and after several song and dance performances, the best newcomer award came.The award presenter is Tao Hong, the lead actor of the recently popular "Bright Spring Pig Bajie".

"The winner of the best newcomer award this time is..." Tao Hong smiled and paused for a while, "Yao Chen, from "Waiting Alone"!"

wow.

Huang Haibo and the others shouted and cheered, while Yao Chen covered his mouth in disbelief.Although "Waiting Alone" aroused great repercussions at the college student film festival, it received rave reviews and was unanimously welcomed by students.But Wan Xiaohu had already vaccinated them, so don't have expectations for awards.

At this moment, it seems too sudden and too happy.

"Don't stand still, hurry up." Wan Xiaohu reminded loudly.

"Oh." Yao Chen ran onto the stage in a panic.

"Hey hey, don't forget to thank me..." Before Wan Xiaohu finished speaking, Yao Chen had already stepped onto the stage.

Li Xia laughed: "Tiger, is there a director like you? Others thank you from the bottom of their hearts. How can you ask others to thank you?"

"What do you know? I'm afraid that Yao Chen is too young, and there will be omissions."
