Chapter 203: Big Talk?
Ke Zhanyi received news from the country.
Movie tickets for "That Summer" in more than 20 regions have been booked for the third day.
In the remaining more than 100 areas that have not yet been "toured", thanks to the promotion of the battery car, the overall pre-sale tickets have been sold well.
Seeing this news, Ke Zhanyi couldn't be said to be excited, but he felt somewhat relieved.
Even if it can't replicate the glory of "Youth in Time", it won't be a hit.
……………………
December in China is a cold winter.
But in Brazil, it is a lively summer.
December 28th.
French film critic Avery Tashi was invited to Rocinha.
There was no smile on Avery Tashi's face.
Even when he saw Leo John, the person in charge of the Rocinha South District, trotting over to greet him with a warm smile, surrounded by flowers and applause, there was no smile on his face.
five hours ago.
He rested in a beach hotel.
Before he could close his eyes, he heard the door being pushed open with a "click", and then several smiling young people broke in.
He is frightened!
Then, before I could figure out what was going on, I was "invited" by the young man to the Southern California International Film Awards.
Along the way, he tried to escape.
But those young people were so enthusiastic that they were afraid that they would not be able to walk. They stood on his left and right along the way. He showed some thoughts, but was suppressed by the enthusiastic smiles!
These young men accompanied him to the slums of Rocinha.
After arriving in the slums...
He saw a pair of eyes that were malicious and even a little lewd.
He wanted to call the police.
Then……
It was discovered that one of the young men who "invited" him over was a local police officer.
He suddenly thought of Mexico, a nest of snakes and rats dealing in chaotic poisonous powder...
Suddenly I thought of Myanmar. Some time ago, several tourists who traveled there disappeared inexplicably.
fear!
He became more and more frightened.
Finally, he was brought to a very lively square.
The square seemed to be a newly built stage. On the stage, the naked eye could see the crude equipment, dirty curtains, countless audiences, as well as cameras and lights...
He subconsciously touched his waist, only to feel some inexplicable pain.
Are these people going to give him a live performance?
Then……
He heard applause, very loud applause, and a long, long red carpet.
Pots of flowers were placed everywhere, and bees were vaguely seen swaying on the flowers.
Under the bright sunshine.
Leo John was wearing big pants, and the translator next to him introduced the [Southern California International Film Awards] to Tashi in very unauthentic French.
Tashi felt that the pain in his waist disappeared instantly!
It turned into eye pain.
Yes!
He was staring at the screen on the stage in the distance and the billboard next to the stage!
He felt like his eyes would become blind from now on!
damn it!
[Southern California International Film Awards]!
What the hell is this!
These people actually want to hold a film award in Rocinha, Brazil, the largest slum in the world?
Then……
These people invited him to be!
"Mr. Tashi, you don't need to do anything, you just need to award awards to our outstanding directors! Of course, I hope you can write some film reviews and evaluate the movie in front of reporters..."
"How do you rate it?"
"I don't know much about movies, but since some movies can come all the way from China and go through layers of screening, they must be excellent movies, right?"
"..."
Tashi saw Leo John’s smiling expression.
He took a deep breath!
He looked around at the security personnel with guns and ammunition.
He was silent.
He is a proud man.
He has noble character and his evaluation is always sharp, even as sharp as a knife!
He has attended Berlin, Cannes...
He has experienced the prosperity, the hustle and bustle, and even the feeling of being the center of attention.
However, he never thought that one day he would find himself in such a troubled place.
Then……
He was taken in to watch a movie.
The movie is called "Flying" and it is the work of a Chinese director.
Before watching the movie, his face looked normal, but after watching the movie, his face instantly turned pale, even bloodless!
This is!
What a garbage movie!
Then……
I was taken to the next movie again.
The next movie is called "Taiwan Love".
After reading it, his eyes were red and his whole mood was only sadness and anger!
When I came out, my legs were soft.
If every movie is a world, then he is convinced that he is living in hell, and it is the deepest level of hell, full of demons.
"How many more movies do you want to watch?"
"More than ten!"
"..."
Tashi's whole body trembled.
Then, he fell to the side of the road, breathing heavily.
At this moment, there was an annoying, harsh horn sound nearby.
"Wow! The world-famous film critic Mr. Avery Tashi is impressed by the charm of our Chinese films!"
Zaxi couldn't understand what the Chinese man holding the loudspeaker was saying.
He covered his heart.
He felt that if he made ten more similar movies, he could probably retire.
………………………………
"The [Southern California International Film Awards] has a jury lineup that is not inferior to Cannes, Berlin, and even the Oscars..."
"The award is known for its professionalism. Although it is not particularly famous in China, and some directors even think that this award is not as good as Berlin, in fact, it is older than these awards..."
"This is the scene of internationally renowned critic Avery Zaxi being shocked by the movie..."
"Mr. Avery Zaxi was once one of the most prestigious critics at the Berlin Film Festival. Many years ago, he was also a respected director..."
"..."
Cool Cat Video.
A young man in a suit came to the Copyright Cooperation Department.
The person in charge, Gao Song, looked at the information in a daze while listening to the young man introduce the [Southern California International Film Awards].
Like many netizens who heard about the award for the first time.
He didn't know what it was at all.
But...
This young man in a suit said it in a serious manner, and sent him a video.
In the video, an old man was breathing heavily, as if he had a heart attack.
That old man...
Gao Song didn't know him at all.
He did know some of the movies and actors in the Berlin Film Festival, but you said critics!
How could he know them?
It was only after searching Baidu Encyclopedia that he found out who this old man was.
"The awards will be presented tonight?"
"Yes!"
"The awards will be presented tonight, and you want to talk to me about the broadcast rights now?"
"What's the problem?"
"The problem is that there is no problem, it's just..." Gao Song stared at the [Southern California International Film Awards].
He was confused now.
"What is it?"
"Excuse me, I have never heard of this film award. Maybe this award is very powerful. Well, maybe this award was on the hot search some time ago, but I am not very professional in this kind of activity... You also know that the traffic of our video website is going downhill at present. We no longer have spare money to buy other video copyrights..."
"Let me introduce myself. I am the producer of the documentary "Graduation Years"..."
"I know. Well, so, how do you want to cooperate? If it can be broadcast for free, then you can try it. It is also a kind of publicity for your [Southern California International Film Awards]..."
"..."
Gao Song looked at the young man in a suit in front of him.
The young man is Zhang Sheng, a freshman at Yanshihua.
Looking at the young Zhang Sheng, even though Gao Song knew that Zhang Sheng had become a company called [NC Studio] and produced a documentary "Graduation Years" which is still a hit, he still felt a little contempt in his heart.
When Zhang Sheng talked about the copyright broadcasting fee, Gao Song was shocked.
He actually wanted to charge the same fee as Berlin and Oscar.
This is really a big mouth.
He naturally refused.
No one is a fool!
Then, they talked about free.
Gao Song was quite interested.
But when Gao Song listened to this young man talking to him about the future video industry and live broadcasting, which will become the mainstream in the future, and saw this young man talking eloquently and with reason, he suddenly wanted to laugh out loud.
He almost couldn't hold it back!
You are a freshman!
What business are you talking about?
Do you understand business?
Moreover, he, Gao Song, is a serious person who majored in economics.
He felt that Zhang Sheng talking to him about these things was as funny as showing off his skills in front of an expert.
Gao Song finally didn't laugh out loud. He nodded seriously on the surface. This is the courtesy and cultivation that a leader should have.
He still has this cultivation.
He politely told Zhang Sheng that he would consider Zhang Sheng's cooperation proposal carefully. If there is a cooperation opportunity in the future, he is willing to cooperate with young people like Zhang Sheng.
The office fell into silence for a short time.
Then, he saw Zhang Sheng stood up, also smiled politely, and left the office with some information.
He shook his head.
This world...
There are too many people who want to rise to the top overnight.
The younger they are, the more they think about how powerful they are, and the more they are full of ambition.
A few minutes later, he looked out the window.
He couldn't help laughing.
He talked about hundreds of thousands of dollars in business with him, and talked about live broadcasting, the future of the Internet, trends and outlets on paper, as if he was pointing out the mountains and rivers.
It's quite interesting!
But...
The courage of this young man is still admirable!
At least, he dared to come to the door!
A gust of wind blew outside the window.
The wind was a little cold.
Gao Song subconsciously closed the window, turned on the air conditioner, and blew warm air.
…………………………
There were only a few hours left before the [Southern California International Film Awards] ceremony.
Zhang Sheng did not feel frustrated after being rejected.
He just happened to pass by the entrance of KuMao Video's headquarters on his electric bike, and then walked up to talk about business and learn about the structure of KuMao Video.
Rejection is understandable.
The afterglow of the sunset illuminates the horizon.
Zhang Sheng stared at KuMao Video silently in the cold wind.
He narrowed his eyes.
The phone rang.
It was Chen Mengting who called.
The content of the call was not good news.
Chen Mengting called some video websites to discuss the live broadcast of the [Southern California International Film Awards]...
But...
No video website was willing to cooperate.
In the end, even if it was free, no one was willing to open a live broadcast channel on the video website.
Zhang Sheng nodded after listening, comforted Chen Mengting a few words and then hung up the phone.
Through this call, he roughly knew the current situation in the video circle.
What a pity.
He sighed slightly in his heart.
Then, he felt the phone vibrating.
He saw another 30,000 yuan transferred to the bank card.
It was the business share from [Fat Xiaoan Restaurant]...
[Fat Xiaoan Restaurant] branches seem to be prosperous!
(Today there are only two guaranteed updates, the status is too bad, the last chapter was almost good, this chapter is much better)
