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

Xu Jia's expression relaxed slightly, and he stepped forward to give Damimi a big hug, and said comfortingly: "If I really can't come back after filming these two films, I can also resign from "Aquaman". I'll ask them to find someone else. There is no need to tire yourself and live such a wronged life."

He allowed Yang Mi to go to Hollywood to develop her career, which was just to comply with the other party's wishes. Even though Damimi didn't say anything, he could still see the energy in her heart.

How could a strong woman with a strong career ambition be willing to retreat behind the scenes?

If he didn't have the strength to say this before, then forget it. But now that he is working hard to become so powerful, he must be as arrogant as he should be. It is not good for his woman to be wronged.

"No, I'm just in a temporary mood. It will be much better if I come back. I have to go back in a few days. I can't let the whole crew wait for me. And the heroine in "Aquaman" that you finally won for me, Why should you give it up to others?"

Yang Mi raised her chin and hummed: "In the past, there were always people who said that I didn't deserve to be in the film industry and was just a traffic star. Now I'm entering the international film industry to see what else those guys have to say."

Yes, these ladies are calm on the surface, but they are arrogant little princesses on the inside. I can still remember this to this day.

Xu Jia couldn't laugh or cry at the same time, and said: "Don't care too much about online reviews. There are good and bad reviews from people. The key is to get what you want."

He knew how competitive Da Mimi was, and the two of them were growing up after all. To be honest, after establishing Jiaxing, it has developed so successfully, which is probably one of the sources of pressure on the other party.

After all, before she was reborn, she was probably just a follower in Damimi's eyes. Now that she has become the master, the latter will definitely not be willing to accept it.

"I just want to slap those keyboard warriors in the face. Let's not talk about this. I heard that you are planning to open a branch of Jiaxing Park in Bianliang? Now the park has reached the point where it can open a branch, and it is developing too fast. Right." Yang Mi said with a bit of surprise.

She vaguely remembered that the earliest Jiaxing Paradise still needed a company to promote and attract traffic. Unexpectedly, it already had brand value.

It seems that during my absence from the country, Jiaxing has developed as well as ever.

"It's okay. If we invest so many resources and still have no results, then it's our problem. Moreover, the theme park sector in China is currently relatively weak, and the market is a blue ocean. Only then can we make such rapid progress. If it were replaced by other Projects with low barriers to entry have long been abandoned," Xu Jia explained.

The key to a theme park is not the park, but the theme. This is the threshold that stops the vast majority of investors. Disney can be so successful because their film and television projects are well-known around the world, which makes them invincible. .

Although Jiaxing is not as awesome as Disney, it has made great achievements domestically and is still barely able to survive in the domestic field alone.

Director Liu Jie rushed over quickly. He was the director of "Baby". He was happy to have his heroine and producer back. His happiness was written on his face.

He knew very well that the most valuable thing about his film project was not the film itself, but Yang Mi's share, so that Jiaxing would devote enough resources.

"Has the film been cut? When is it planned to be released?" Xu Jia asked.

"I plan to put it at the premiere ceremony at the Toronto Film Festival and wait until it participates in a few film festivals before seeking a release." Liu Jie said cautiously.

As a director of literary and artistic films, he actually wants to transform into a commercial director. Nonsense, who doesn't like being able to earn both fame and fortune in an open and honest way?

Just look at those literary and artistic directors, which one is not involved in making commercial films. From Ang Lee to Wu Baige to Jia Zhangke and Lou Ye, none of them are unwilling to make commercial films. The only reason for returning to literary and artistic films is that they can’t find to investors.

It's very simple. Literary films have been around in major film festivals. If you can sell the copyright, you can make a profit. The main focus is small-cost business, but commercial films are different. Investments often cost tens of millions or hundreds of millions. If you can't make money, then Without investment, this is an iron-clad rule, and it is useless to exaggerate.

Why the idol economy is in decline, and why the entertainment industry generally believes that movie stars are higher than TV stars, the final analysis is that investors have found that idol actors can no longer get enough returns for starring, and it is difficult for TV drama actors to get high box office.

Movies have to be judged by their box office, and fans need to pay real money to support an actor, rather than making data and making hot searches.

"Put it at the Toronto Film Festival?"

Xu Jiamo stroked his chin, nodded slightly and said: "Okay, it's also good for your kind of film to go to film festivals. It's just a warm-up in the country in the early stage, but I'm afraid it's not enough for this film festival, right? I'm looking for it this way. Let the company’s awards department make a plan and go to all the film festivals it can. It will be convenient for promotion when the time comes.”

Nowadays, domestic film festivals in China naturally do not have as much yearning for and attention to foreign film festivals as before, but if they can win awards, they can still play some role.

What's more, Jiaxing has a huge distribution system. If it can win awards or be nominated, it can also obtain more benefits through this distribution system.

"Yeah, thank you, Mr. Xu. I have already signed up for the 66th San Sebastian International Film Festival. If I can be shortlisted by then, please ask Mr. Yang to come with me." Liu Jie said with joy on his face. .

What he was waiting for was Xu Jia's words. With the boss's instructions, he would go to the awards operation department and the other party would work hard. If he was alone, he would not be ranked at all.

After all, there are so many projects in Jiaxing, why should they help you run them?

Well, the fact that the producer and heroine is Yang Mi is indeed an undoubted reason, but it is not as effective as Xu Jia's words.

After saying that, the two looked at Yang Mi aside.

Yang Mi nodded and said, "There is no problem with me. If I really get selected, I will rush there if I have time."

The premise is that she can indeed be shortlisted for the main competition, then it will be worth her while to go. Even if it is just a nomination, it will be a big bonus for the actor.

"Forget it about domestic film festivals. They are not at the level of Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers. The rest are basically of no use. As for overseas film festivals, such as Tokyo Film Festival and Berlin, you can send them to try. Anyway, it is just a matter of chance, and we belong to We are old acquaintances, so we should be able to save face." Xu Jia said calmly.

For these overseas film festivals, he may have found it a bit challenging at the beginning, but when he got in touch with them, he found that it was just that.
