Let you invest, and you can support half of the entertainment industry?

Xu Jia's entry into Zhouyi Film and Television was a surprise not only to those in the industry, but also to those within Jiaxing.

Who would have thought that his boss would take over Zhouyi Film and Television without saying a word.

After all, it was Xu Jia, not Jiaxing, who collected enough shares.

But after receiving the news, Zeng Jia immediately sent a team to Zhouyi Film and Television.

"Sister Zeng, I'm sorry to trouble you. There are a lot of clues here that you need to sort out slowly with Mr. Jiang."

Xu Jia felt a little apologetic. He felt that the burden placed on Zeng Jia was too heavy. The investment promotion over there was not over yet, and arrangements were made here.

"As long as you give us a breather in time next time and avoid such unprepared battles, I will be satisfied." Zeng Jia sighed.

Who told her that she had a hard-working life, but in other words, this kind of hard-working life was not available to others.

"Don't worry, I will definitely ask you first next time."

Xu Jia made a guarantee without credibility and asked casually: "Is there anything at the headquarters that requires my intervention?"

Normally, Jiaxing would be the same with or without him, as long as he lives, that's enough.

"It's true that director Guo Fan has returned from the United States and plans to start the "Wandering Earth" project, and director Jiaozi, "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" seems to have been completed," Zeng Jia said.

Xu Jia could ignore other things, but he really couldn't ignore these two things.

After all, these are projects that he personally introduced to the company, and everyone in the company knows that he attaches great importance to these two projects and the director.

Compared with Chinese films in the popular sense, the genres Guo Fan and Dumpling shoot are actually niche.

But in a sense, it is also an indispensable path for the development of film towards industrialization.

Science fiction and animated films are different from the Chinese saying that they will win the day. These two types of films lack technical power and are difficult to shoot.

The reason why Xu Jia supports the two of them and supports the two projects is that he hopes to develop the film industry through them.

Not to mention being able to compete with the United States, at least it can have its own basic industries.

Although films such as "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and "The Richest Man in Xihong City" have their own outstanding features and are quite popular among audiences, if they are always limited to such dramas, then Chinese movies will never be able to rise.

Just like when the big ship "Titanic" entered China, it undoubtedly smashed all local movies into pieces.

Then to the later "Transformers", "Avengers", etc., it is a gap in the times.

This is where the despair comes.

The visual effects alone can overwhelm many movies themselves, not to mention that the inspiration in the script is only temporary and cannot be developed on a large scale.

Including the Hong Kong movies of that year, there were also sprouts of special effects technology, which showed that they had encountered a bottleneck.

It was later proven that there were indeed barriers and bottlenecks, and failure to overcome them would lead to decline.

……

Preparatory room.

Dumpling and Guo Fan sat face to face, both feeling a little restrained.

The two of them had only heard each other's names, but had never seen each other. Their familiarity was limited to knowing their names. By the way, both of them were born in the 1980s.

"It is said that the company has opened two more projects, one starring Uncle Benshan and Mr. Guan Guan, and one starring Zhou Xingxing and Wu Mengta. The directors are also new directors from our company. We are so lucky, and maybe the chair we are sitting on, This is where Teacher Benshan and the others sat." Dumpling took the initiative to break the deadlock.

Jiaxing's preparatory room is actually limited to the time before the project starts. After the project actually starts, a team will be set up to have its own independent studio.

In the past, it could still be arranged at the headquarters, but now with the expansion of the scale and the hidden dangers of people coming and going, most of them have gone out to find another place.

If they had arrived earlier, they might have been able to see Uncle Benshan, Master Xing and others, but by now the two crews had already moved out.

"I'm really lucky. Maybe a few waves from behind in the Yangtze River will push against the waves in front and kill us both on the beach." Guo Fan nodded.

He himself is very lucky, otherwise he would not have directed "My Deskmate" at the age of thirty-four and achieved box office success.

You must know that the protagonists Zhou Dongyu and Lin Gengxin were not very famous at the time and did not have any box office appeal. If I must say, it was a good time for youth movies.

But he also has some talent himself. His debut film "The Adventures of Li Xianji" won the Best Asian Film Award at the Korea Bucheon International Fantasy Film Festival.

It can be said that making science fiction was the direction he set when he entered the industry.

"It's really hard to say. I watched Xin Shuang's "White Night" and it was quite spiritual. There are also actors turned directors like Deng Chao and Dapeng, so the competition is quite fierce."

Dumpling said and shook his head. This had little bearing on him and Guo Fan.

The two of them entered Jiaxing with a project and received the support of Xu Jiadingge. There was no need to compete at all, because failure would lead to success.

Even if Xu Jia didn't care, it would be difficult for the two of them to accept it.

Thinking of this, the two of them suddenly felt a little more connected.

But in comparison, Dumpling's mood is even more indescribable. His finished film "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" has been released, and you will know if it is a mule or a horse out for a walk.

Guo Fan, on the other hand, is planning to restart "The Wandering Earth" after returning from this trip. It is still unknown when the filming will be completed.

crunch.

When the door opened, Xu Jia looked up and saw two grown men looking at each other passionately.

It's so annoying...

"How about I go out?" Xu Jia hesitated.

It is said that directors like to find new ways to deal with relationships. Did you come at the wrong time?

"Don't do it, boss. If you do this, I won't be able to be a good person in the future. I will hang myself on the animation department frame when I get back." Dumpling said.

"Isn't this just a joke to liven up the atmosphere because you two are so bitter and bitter?"

Xu Jia smiled and looked at Guo Fan aside, "You came back alone? How was the editing of "The Meg"? How did you feel about this trip?"

"Lorenzo, the producer of "The Meg," is watching the cuts and is almost done. According to him, he plans to release it in July or August next year. He must take into account that Americans will be on beach vacations at that time and have more desire to see sharks. type of movie.”

Guo Fan paused and then talked about his feelings about going to the United States this time: "If I have to talk about my feelings, I can only say that I am excited. There is a big gap between us and them, but it is not out of reach. On the contrary, it makes me feel excited." I became more inspired on how to shoot The Wandering Earth.”

Although Guo Fan had already had the experience of studying in the United States, he was sent there by Han Sanping to accompany Chen Sicheng, Xiao Yang, and Wu Qishan, but it was completely different from this time.

After all, this time I went with the crew of "The Meg". My identity was different, so my exposure to the field was naturally deeper.

That guy Lorenzo doesn't think about technology leaks for the American film industry.
