A different director [entertainment circle]

"Director Qin Yan hasn't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect why the filming was so late this time."

"Director Qin, it's finally time to start working. If you don't start filming, we all thought you were going to run away."

"I'm different. What I suspect is whether Director Qin is planning to go on strike because Xie Beiyang didn't participate."

The crew of "Earth Fortress 3" finally got together, and they joked with Qin Yan as soon as they met. The crew of "Earth Fortress" is quite special. When filming "Earth Fortress", Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang happened to be in the most ambiguous period when they didn't recognize their feelings.

There is no restraint in getting along in the crew.The two of them think that they are good friends, but they don't know that in the eyes of others, the two of them are in love for nothing.

Many people in "Born in Mud" vaguely know the relationship between the two, but they are all insiders, and they have gained a lot in the crew, except for occasional jokes, they will not spread it.

Everyone knows that the reason for the postponement of "Fortress Earth 3" is "Born in Silt" and Xie Beiyang. After meeting, they naturally teased Qin Yan.

"I'm really sorry to delay everyone's work arrangements."

Although "Fortress Earth 3" has brought a lot of trouble, it does not affect the relationship between the crew members.For those games between capitals, Qin Yan will not take his anger out on other people.

Last year, Qin Yan was setting up the crew and coordinating the time, but now it's October, and the crew just started working.

After the Olympics, Qin Yan had to stay in Pingcheng, and various jobs made it impossible for him to escape.

On the one hand, the post-editing of "Born in Silt" has already started, this time Qin Yan is aiming at next year's film festival.

And when it was released, Qin Yan had a very bold idea, and he couldn't wait for a single cut of "Born in the Silt".

Although Qin Yan hired a very famous editor in the industry this time, there are still many problems that require Qin Yan to be present.

At the same time, "New New Era" was officially launched.

For the convenience of Qin Yan, and also because "New New Era" was originally a movie with relatively few scene changes, the crew directly decided to shoot in Pingcheng.

In the early stage of the film crew, Qin Yan ran to the set every three days.

Although Qin Yan didn't need to say anything, just sitting on the side, he really felt a bit like the emperor listening to politics behind a curtain.

But Qin Yan has been paying attention to the shooting and the various situations of the crew.

During the day, Qin Yan watched the filming process on the crew, and in the evening, he would privately tell directors Li Weihao and Guo Zitao about their work arrangements.

In fact, Qin Yan has always had a particularly obvious awareness. He knew that if he directly talked about these issues with Li Weihao and Guo Zitao on the set, it would probably directly affect Li Weihao and Guo Zitao's wechat as directors.

It stands to reason that the director should be the emperor on the set, but now the emperor has to listen to the emperor, how does this make the officials think of the emperor?

So Qin Yan could only take advantage of the daytime to find out the problem and write it down, and then communicate with the two of them at night.

How to arrange the order of the actors, the skills of communication, the proper prestige... It can be said that Qin Yan taught everything without leaving anything.

Every director will have the first time, and it will definitely be green and unfamiliar.

But for the vast majority of directors, they must have been on the set for many years before making a movie.

Generally, it takes at least seven or eight years to get to the position of director from the stage management of the crew, executive director, and assistant director.

So many years are not killing time, but really accumulating experience.

But Li Weihao and Guo Zitao are completely different. They have outstanding talents, and if they seize the opportunity, they can reach the sky in one step.

But what is missing is the experience accumulated over time.

Now Qin Yan told Li Weihao and the others all the knowledge, even if Li Weihao and the others were willing to listen and learn, the effect would definitely not be as good as his own personal experience.

If "New New Era" is a work with a relatively small investment, it doesn't matter if Li Weihao and Guo Zitao try it themselves, even if they fail.

With an investment of several million, no one would have much expectation.

But the reality is that "New New Era" invested 6000 million yuan, and the actors, crew, and venue are all top-notch in the industry.

After all, this is the next very important strategic film of Huayan Company. It will directly determine whether the "Huayan" brand can replace "Qinyan", and it will also affect whether "Qinyan Movie" is an isolated case or a market orientation.

If a high-quality film made by a small director and young actors can be successful, capital will definitely realize the importance of "film quality".

Qin Yan does not allow any mistakes in the work "New New Era", and he has to choose this way of encouraging seedlings to grow.

Qin Yan was very tired, and Li Weihao and the others were even more so.In addition to filming work every day, he has to constantly absorb knowledge from Qin Yan.

"Hou Yi" was originally planned to start filming together with "New Era", Qin Yan worked together and supervised the production at the same time to complete the two-step film.

However, due to the problems of the special effects company, the construction of the crew came to a standstill.

Plus the quality of "God" and Fang Kui.It made Qin Yan and the fortress company realize that even if they were to forcibly shoot "Hou Yi", the final effect would be extremely bad.

After several consecutive meetings, Qin Yan and the fortress company made an astonishing decision to temporarily stop the shooting plan of "Hou Yi".

They plan to accumulate for a period of time and start filming in the second half of next year.

If there is no accident, Qin Yan has basically completed all the work of "Earth Fortress 3", coupled with the experience accumulated by the Fortress Company for a year, it can achieve a completely different effect.

If we lose our horses, we can't know what a blessing is.

It is precisely because of the suspension of "Hou Yi" that Qin Yan can barely complete the current work.

If "Hou Yi" is filmed as scheduled, Qin Yan may not be able to handle all three jobs well, and the quality of the three films will be affected by then, which will be troublesome.

On the other hand, Xie Beiyang was not idle either.

Just like Xie Beiyang said to Qin Yan, whether "Born in the Muck" or "New New Era" performed poorly, Qin Yan's reputation would definitely be damaged.

Although it won't hurt the muscles and bones, it is absolutely impossible to maintain an undefeated record like now. There is a big difference between myths and legends.

Xie Beiyang is really fulfilling his promise to Qin Yan in his own practical way——

In case Qin Yan really can't support the huge Hua Yan one day, Xie Beiyang will support the countertop of Hua Yan.

But now what Xie Beiyang can do is to hone his acting skills and improve his status.

Xie Beiyang recently passed an interview with a national-level crew, and is accumulating experience and preparing for his first play; at the same time, Xie Beiyang will also attend some activities to accumulate his own resources; there are also interviews with young actors from Galaxy Brokerage Company. The training is also handled by Xie Beiyang...

After more than two months of recuperation, Xie Beiyang finally recovered his state before filming "Born in Silt".

This is just because Xie Beiyang is still young now, if you wait a few years and let Xie Beiyang torment like this, it will not be so easy to recover.

After his recovery, Xie Beiyang also went to "New New Era" as a special actor to play a supporting role.

With Xie Beiyang's current status, it's big news to go to play for others.

During the few days when Xie Beiyang was filming on the set, the whole atmosphere changed.

"New New Era" originally reflected intergenerational issues and used many young actors.For these young actors, their most admired objects are Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian!

Who doesn't want to be the next Xie Beiyang?

Qin Yan drank a lot of jealousy over the past few days, so he hugged Xie Beiyang at night and wouldn't let go:

"Don't get so close to them, they don't look right at you."

Hearing this sentence, Xie Beiyang laughed angrily, he said:

"You feel your conscience and say, is there something wrong with the way they look at you, or the way they look at me?"

Qin Yan chose to block Xie Beiyang's mouth directly, so that he could not continue to ask.

The purpose of Xie Beiyang's friendship participation is very clear, which is to add a certain degree of topicality to "New New Era", at least when it is released, it will be another publicity stunt.

More audiences will be willing to go to the cinema to see what kind of movie "New New Era" is.

Qin Yan did not participate in the entire filming of "New New Era", and "New New Era" was already on the right track at the end of September.

Coupled with Xie Beiyang helping to support the stage, Qin Yan began to gather the crew of "Earth Fortress 3".

Only Qin Yan and "Earth Fortress 3" are qualified, so that all the actors are willing to adjust their work schedules.

You must know that "Fortress Earth 3" was originally planned to start filming in July, but now it is three months late.Someone on the set is sure to complain privately.

No, Qin Yan was prepared to encounter all kinds of bad things from the very beginning when making a movie this time. After all, everyone knows the conflict behind "Fortress Earth 3".

Comparing actors and film companies, they are like a mayfly shaking a tree.The biggest stars among the actors are Chen Lingfeng and the heroine Anis, their status is much worse than that of Qin Yan.

Even Qin Yan couldn't compete with these film companies, let alone them.They can only fulfill their duties as actors as much as possible, and they can only pretend to be deaf and dumb in other things.

But Qin Yan never expected that the bad things would come so soon.

In order to make the filming of "Fortress Earth 3" smoother and release normally, Qin Yan agreed to Warner's 20% investment.

Even if Qin Yan has already begun to make it clear that the director is in his own hands, and Warner Company is not allowed to dictate.

But Warner Bros. told Qin Yan on the first day that because of Qin Yan's postponement, all the promotion and release arrangements of "Earth Fortress 3" were affected.

Everyone knows whether it will be affected, not to mention the changes caused by the interference of Warner and other film companies.

Qin Yan also had a sweet month cooperation period with Warner Company back then, but the cooperation relationship was totally vulnerable in the face of money.

If they can get more rights to "Fortress Earth", especially after it is released, more profit sharing, Warner will definitely be happier.

Although Qin Yan held important positions such as director and producer, Warner Company still sent people to the crew, saying that it was to see if there was any abuse of funds. In fact, this was Warner Company showing muscles to Qin Yan.

This behavior really disgusted Qin Yan.

But now Qin Yan didn't have to worry about Warner's stumbling in other areas.

After all, Warner Bros. has also invested money, and their first goal is to hope that the quality of "Fortress Earth 3" will be enjoyable.

As long as Qin Yan can play to his usual standard, he doesn't have to worry about being seized power.

Except for Qin Yan's tough attitude, most of the actors supported Qin Yan.

Sometimes Warner Bros. put forward some requirements, and all the members on the set immediately objected.

In fact, Warner is really smart, Qin Yan originally planned to give the crew a ten-day holiday for Christmas.Warner immediately stood up and said to the cast and workers:

All Hollywood movies are on holiday for at least ten days. Director Qin Yan, you are doing this inhumanely!

Warner thought that with the banner of "righteousness", he could always make Qin Yan hand over more power. Who knew that everyone accepted Qin Yan's holiday plan and ignored Warner at all.

It can be seen that many people have long been dissatisfied with these large film companies.

After all, these film companies essentially regard actors as tools to make money.

In their eyes, no actor is indispensable, only which actor can bring them more profits.

Although Qin Yan's requirements were abnormally strict when they were filming the movie, at least Qin Yan respected them as actors, not just tools.

At this time, Warner also realized that its behavior had crossed the line a little bit. "Fortress Earth 3" has not been filmed for a long time, and it has long attracted the attention of a large number of movie fans.

If this matter is really made a big deal and any news spreads, Warner will also be in trouble.

You must know that the media in the Beacon Country are even more unscrupulous. If such a good show is known to them, they will definitely not let it go.

At that time, "Fortress Earth 3" will be a great damage to Warner Corporation, so Warner chose to stop and no longer interfere with Qin Yan's creation.

In the next few months, Qin Yan filmed the whole process in the Lighthouse Country.The plot this time is relatively simple, and most of it is produced by special effects.

The production cost of "Earth Fortress 3" has reached a new high.Except for the increase in actor fees, all other expenses are invested in special effects.

The battle between the earth and silicon-based life has countless grand scenes, and every frame is a burning knife.

The shooting task this time was too heavy, and there was only a seven-day rest period for Christmas.

There are still 1/3 of the Chinese actors in the crew. During the Spring Festival in February, Qin Yan also gave the crew a 2-day vacation to allow the actors to adjust and rest a little.

Qin Yan also worked to the limit, and Xie Beiyang was not by Qin Yan's side in recent months, so Qin Yan worked even more recklessly.

Xie Beiyang originally planned to have a video with Qin Yan for a long period of time, but Qin Yan knew that his changes could not escape Xie Beiyang's eyes, so he tried every means to escape Xie Beiyang's inspection.

Although I miss Xie Beiyang very much, Qin Yan did not return to China during the Spring Festival, and there are still too many things to deal with in the Lighthouse Country.

In the past few years, due to the existence of the global satellite network, there has been no network blockade between various countries, which has made the world's Internet continue to confront each other.

This caused many changes and developments to exceed Qin Yan's expectations, which forced Qin Yan to make many temporary adjustments.

What Internet users value most is the latest film and television resources. The copyright purchased by Waterdrop Video before can no longer meet the needs of domestic netizens.

Qin Yan is going to take advantage of the Spring Festival to discuss with several film companies in the Lighthouse Country about the copyright of film broadcasting on the Internet.

And after 08, several video sites around the world have gradually revealed their hideous colors.

Although Shuidi Video is still a leading enterprise in China, a lot of capital has entered the market one after another.

In particular, relying on various resources of variety shows, online dramas, and TV dramas, they began to split the battlefield, occupy the mountain as king, and gained a considerable share.

Idol dramas, youth movies, and variety shows are indeed not Qin Yan's main battlegrounds. Many video sites have already started to learn to buy exclusive broadcast copyrights to win over young users.

Although Qin Yan also asked Waterdrop Video to work hard in this area, a lot of capital invested in shooting related film and television works, and the right to broadcast online will never be sold to Waterdrop Video.

If possible, they all want to kill the behemoth of Waterdrop Video, and then re-divide the video market.

Although Waterdrop Video has been working hard, it is still too difficult to be a pioneer.

In the past few years, several large and small companies have been established in China. If the original trajectory of history is followed, these companies should still be in their infancy.

Provide resources for free in exchange for the proportion of users.

In the past, if they were not protected by relevant policies, they would have been suppressed by large video sites around the world to the point where there was nothing left.

Coupled with the fact that there is no network barrier in this world, the road for these video companies should be even more difficult.

They can't help but have Waterdrop Video escorting them in front of them. Although there are still pirated videos in recent years, more and more people have become accustomed to paying to watch movies on the Internet.

In this way, as long as they hold the copyright in their hands, they don't need to make a profit at a loss, and directly enter the profit period.

If the normal development track is followed, the video company has no possibility of making a profit in the past few years, and it relies on spending money to attract a large number of users. After successfully monopolizing the market, it will switch to a charging model.

Now they only need to be slightly cheaper than Waterdrop Video to get a large number of customers. This is the cruelty of capital competition.

Every company wants to gain a monopoly position, even if it loses a little money in the past few years, it doesn't matter.

After the company officially starts to make profits, it is good to find ways to earn back from customers, but the prerequisite must be to obtain a monopoly position.

Qin Yan never thought that Shuidi Video must be the only one, and Qin Yan's goal at the beginning was not a domestic video company, but a foreign video website company he wanted to compete with.

Only when its water drop video is perfect and powerful enough can it attract more foreign audiences to understand Huaguo's film and television industry.

Qin Yan originally planned to be a differentiated video website, and then introduce more foreign movie resources into China, and then add Chinese subtitles.

But now these Western film and television companies have paid more and more attention to the Huaguo market, and they also know that they also know the relationship between Shuidi and Qin Yan.

When they suppressed Qin Yan, they were bound to suppress Shuidi Video as well.

Things have come to this point, Qin Yan can only go to battle in person, this is another round of difficult negotiations.

More importantly, Qin Yan has to find a way to break through Hollywood studios' exchanges.

The few days off during the Spring Festival are simply not enough.As a last resort, Qin Yan could only call Xie Beiyang from the country to the Lighthouse Country to help him negotiate.

Don't think that Xie Beiyang can only make movies, he is a top student in the Finance Department of Pingcheng University.

Moreover, Xie Beiyang held as many shares as him, so it was justifiable to come forward to negotiate.

In fact, Qin Yan asked Xie Beiyang to come to the Lighthouse Country because he still had a little selfishness.

I definitely won't be able to return to the country in a short time, and he hasn't seen Xie Beiyang for several months. If Xie Beiyang comes to the Lighthouse Country, he will definitely find a chance to meet him.

But who knows that people are not as good as heaven, Xie Beiyang didn't come to the Lighthouse Country alone, he actually brought Xie Nan here too.

When Qin Yan heard the news, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. He tremblingly said to the microphone:

"What are you going to do? Uncle... No... Why did you call your brother?"

Before Xie Beiyang could speak, the mobile phone was snatched by the brother-in-law at the side, and he said in a very gentle voice:

"Xiao Qin, if you need help, just tell me. Am I not your brother-in-law? What are you doing so far?"

"If you have time, let's meet and have a meal together."

Qin Yan finally found out that Xie Beiyang and his family, except for Xie Changyue, were very good at hiding their swords behind their faces. Qin Yan didn't dare to meet Xie Beiyang now, so he could only hand over the work to Xie Beiyang and Xie Nan on the phone.

Although Xie Nan said that he came to seek revenge from Qin Yan, in fact he knew how difficult the negotiation task this time was.

He is the largest shareholder of Waterdrop Video anyway, so it is impossible for him to leave all the work to his younger brother and sister-in-law.

After Xie Nan arrived in the Lighthouse Country, he didn't stay with Xie Beiyang all the time.

On the one hand, he ran to negotiate with these film companies, and on the other hand, he ran to negotiate with the video company in Lighthouse Country.

After all, there are still obvious delays in overseas transmission, coupled with problems such as language differences, the best way now is to engage in regional copyrights.

It is also the "Harry Potter" series, and Waterdrop Video will definitely not be able to buy the global screening rights of the "Harry Potter" series, but at least it can buy the copyright in the Huaguo region.

The film company hopes that the video companies will compete with each other, and Xie Nan's solution is to unite with the online video companies to put pressure on the film company.

Xie Nan became the head of Tenghui Group not because he was older than Xie Bei Yang Chi.

During the negotiation process, many difficulties were encountered.

Xie Beiyang had been in the Lighthouse Country for a month, but the two hadn't been able to meet each other.
