Entertainment, I just like making movies

December 1st.

"Edge of Tomorrow" completed its final three scenes at the Supreme Military Headquarters and is officially finished.

After 10 months of preparation from the beginning of the year to the start of filming in July, and then to completion in December, this science fiction war film with huge investment has finally come to an end.

The shot footage was immediately sent to three special effects companies: Tiangong Yicai, China Film Digital Technology, and Beishi Technology.

Good news came from Xiao Yang. With the support of Hengyu's continuous investment, two more special effects companies have joined the post-production of "Edge of Tomorrow".

At present, more than 3,000 people have participated in the special effects and 3D conversion work of "Edge of Tomorrow".

According to the date, the movie will be released on January 2.

Time is very tight. In addition to completing special effects and 3D conversion, we also need to complete tedious post-production tasks such as editing and soundtrack.

At the closing banquet.

Da Tiantian, who had not been seen for a long time, was present, along with Chen Yu, the representative of China Film and Television, and Song Ge, the boss of Wanda Film and Television.

Hengyu Media booked a five-star hotel near the company and booked a large banquet hall.

The whole crew of more than 200 people was present, and it was very lively.

Fang Ziheng stood at the front desk, raised half a glass of white wine, and said loudly with a red face: "After 10 months of preparation and more than 4 months of filming, "Edge of Tomorrow" was successfully completed.

I want to thank everyone here, thank you for your hard work and persistence, thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work! "

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

Everyone raised their glasses and drank the first glass of green wine.

Fang Ziheng drank half a glass of white wine in one gulp, feeling his throat burning.

After I got off the stage, I took several mouthfuls of food before I felt relieved.

He waved his hand to stop the people who came to toast, and smiled inexplicably: "Everyone, I won't accompany you to drink more. You all know my drinking capacity, so I won't be embarrassed.

I have booked a room for you in the hotel. There are various entertainment projects upstairs. All the expenses tonight will be counted on the crew's account. Everyone must eat well, drink well and have fun! "

"Thank you, director!"

"The director is open!"

"Long live the director!"

The dinner lasted until half past ten, when Fang Ziheng left early and went upstairs to rest.

During this time, his spirit has been tense and he lacks sleep every day.

I wrote, directed, and acted, and from time to time I had to deal with Liu Qianqian in bed, which was really tiring.

As long as a gap is opened between men and women, it will be difficult to deal with it later.

No matter what the man said, he couldn't stop even if he thought about it.

The young lady is very interested and comes to Fang Ziheng every two days to discuss her teaching skills.

It's called a one-on-one challenge!

But the little sister shouldn't come to block him tonight. Da Tiantian is here, so he has to accompany the little sister no matter what.

the next day.

The crew went back to their homes to rest.

Liu Qianqian sent him a message, saying that she and Da Tiantian were going shopping in the mall and doing beauty treatments in the afternoon, and asked him if he could go.

Fang Ziheng refused, joking, he is a grown man, he doesn't need beauty care.

Besides, he has a lot of work, so he doesn't have the time to go shopping.

After having breakfast at the hotel, Fang Ziheng went to Hengyu Media to hold a regular meeting of company executives.

The editing of "Edge of Tomorrow" will have to wait a few days and must be coordinated with post-production. The editing department can handle the rough cut, double cut, and pre-production work of Chinese and English subtitles. He only needs to control the fine editing and soundtrack.

In the Hengyu large conference room.

Chen Yunxi, deputy director of the film and television production department, held a document and took the lead in reporting the income of Hengyu's film and television drama projects this year.

"Mr. Fang, the rotation rights of "Spy in the Deep" have been sold and are shared by Yuzhang TV, Hainan TV, Yudu TV, and Guizhou TV, for 950,000 per episode!"

Including the first broadcast rights sold to Zhejiang East Satellite TV, the net profit of "Spy War in the Deep" is 38 million! "

"Spy War in the Deep" is the first spy war drama created by Hengyu. It invested 30 million and enlisted Huayi Media, a subsidiary of Poly, to produce it together.

The TV series has 36 episodes and costs 30 million. The production cost of a single episode is close to 900,000.

In 2010, ancient puppet dramas have just begun to rise, and the film and television drama market is still dominated by dramas, police dramas, and spy dramas.

"Deep Sea" is the third modern reality spy drama. As long as it has a good star platform, there is no need to worry about not being liked by the audience.

After two rounds of broadcasts, after deducting the money allocated to Huayi, there is still a profit of 38 million yuan, which is a very considerable profit.

As early as when Fang Ziheng established the film and television production department, he set the tone that the company must produce a spy drama or a police drama every year.

High-quality spy dramas and high-quality police dramas are definitely synonymous with popularity in later generations, and the audience's stickiness is ridiculously high.

After reading the report for a few times, Fang Ziheng smiled lightly: "How is the progress of "My Love from the Star" and "The Age of Naked Marriage"?"

"It's going very well. Post-editing is already underway. "My Love from the Star" is tentatively scheduled to be broadcast during the winter vacation this year, and "The Age of Naked Wedding" is scheduled to be broadcast in the spring of next year."

Chen Yunxi reported while looking through the documents.

She is one of the two deputy directors in the film and television production department, responsible for the marketing of film and television dramas.

There is also a deputy director in the film and television production department, Li Xiaoshu, Fang Ziheng's senior sister, who is responsible for the content control of the TV series.

As for the current director, he resigned two months ago and was lured by Bona with the temptation of listing and splitting shares.

For this matter, the production director of Bona Films specially called Lin Feifei to say that he was sorry, the flood had washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family did not know each other.

Fang Ziheng sneered, who is the same family as him!

Of course, poaching is inevitable.

The entertainment industry seems to be very big, including movies, TV, music, hosting, and peripheral models, behind-the-scenes production, major TV stations, etc., but there are really not many people who can truly become talents.

Especially in film and television production!

Otherwise, the film and television industry of the next generation would not have bad dramas flying all over the place, one after another!

Bona is about to go public, and its cash flow suddenly increases. It also follows the example of Huayi and Hengyu in running movies and TV series on two lines.

In order to attract Wall Street capital, after "囧" box office reached 600 million, Yu Dong recruited Fang Ziheng and Wang Changtian to organize a grand celebration banquet for the movie.

Fang Ziheng was on the set at the time and couldn't get away, so he asked Lin Feifei to bring someone over to support him and gave Xu Zheng a 3.6 million red envelope.

It can be regarded as supplementing the dividends from the box office success to an old friend.

At this time, the deputy director of the Propaganda Department raised his hand, coughed slightly and said: "Mr. Fang, there is something that our Propaganda Department is having a hard time dealing with!"

"What's up?"

""My Love from the Star" is a time-travel idol drama, focusing on the infatuated sadomasochism of the male and female protagonists. In order to promote this TV series with great potential, we have formulated a series of publicity plans for Luo Jin and Song Yi, but"

"But what?"

Fang Ziheng asked, sitting upright and looking steadily at Liu Weiming, deputy director of the Propaganda Department.

Liu Weiming was about to stop talking. He glanced at Chang Jihong, the deputy director of the artist department opposite him, and gritted his teeth and said, "The two artists rejected the promotion plan immediately after they received it from us!"

"Rejected, rejected all!"

"Yes, Mr. Fang, Luo Jin and Song Yi both rejected it!"

Liu Weiming nodded slightly, with a wry smile on his lips.

There was nothing he could do to sue two artists in front of so many people.

Luo Jin is Fang Ziheng's fellow villager. He came from a prefecture-level city. In terms of relationship, he is no less than the company's first artist brother Deng Chao.

Song Yi, that little girl was one of the heroines in the first movie that Fang Ziheng personally selected for the film. The two also played the roles of a pair of ambiguous classmates.

The little girl is as tall as a flower. Who knows how familiar she is with Fang Ziheng.

He, the deputy director of the Propaganda Department, cannot be offended!

On the other side, Chang Jihong quietly raised his hand after listening.

She was originally Liu Ye's agent. After Liu Ye received the script of "Edge of Tomorrow", Andy brought the two of them to Hengyu.

However, due to Fang Ziheng's principle of keeping a low profile, the news of Liu Ye joining Hengyu, like Liu Qianqian, was not officially announced to the public.

So much so that in the eyes of the outside world, the manager and the artist, who have been working together for many years, have parted ways, and many media have reported on it.

Fang Ziheng's eyes narrowed, he waved his hand to stop Chang Jihong from speaking, and said to Zhang Ningyou, Director of the Publicity Department: "Show me their publicity plan."

"Okay, Mr. Fang!"

Zhang Ningyou stood up, walked over with graceful steps, and handed a promotional copy to Fang Ziheng.

She glanced at the bitter Liu Weiming and remained silent.

It is true that she is the director of the publicity department, and this publicity plan passed through her hands.

However, she initially disagreed with the pitch.

Liu Weiming, the deputy, has good work ability and sufficient connections, but his methods are too wild and he likes to use folk remedies and shortcuts too much.

Now that the plan was in Fang Ziheng's hands, she felt a lot more relaxed.

Taking the document, Fang Ziheng scanned it casually.

With just one glance, he knew why both Luo Jin and Song Yi rejected it.

Tsk tsk

It focuses on couples and gossips!

Fang Ziheng was amused in his heart, what a nonsense this is!

After thinking about it, he put down the copy and said calmly: "I know this. Let's change the promotional copy and remove the scandal!"

"Mr. Fang, this!"

Liu Weiming was stunned for a moment, his expression suddenly turned awkward, and he said, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

The boss has spoken, and he has to agree even if he doesn’t agree!

"Let me tell you!"

"In the future, the projects produced by the company must keep pace with the times in terms of publicity. Use the scandal technique as little as possible. The characters produced by the company's annual projects are enough to satisfy its artists. There is no need to go all out for the sake of popularity. Jump!"

Fang Ziheng's tone was slightly serious and he nodded appropriately to the publicity department.

Hengyu Media is not a brothel. There are things you can do or not do. Artists clearly refuse to hype up scandals, so you can't force them.

He also wanted to formalize the company, not just because of Song Yi and Luo Jin.

The executives looked at each other and gave Liu Weiming a comforting look.

The old god Chang Jihong was there with a faint smile on his face, and he agreed very much with what Fang Ziheng said.

For artists, the most important thing is their work!

It’s not a mess of scandals and complaints!

A small storm disappeared without a trace.

Then, Chen Yunxi continued to report!

The post-production of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" in which Hengyu participated has been completed, and the first round of broadcast rights are currently being negotiated.

Hengyu Media accounts for 30% of the share, and the profits are not small.

The filming of "The Stranger" has also been completed. Tang Dynasty's intention is to keep it for a while and move it to next summer's broadcast.

Hengyu had no choice but to agree to this, after all, Tang Ren was the main accuser.

In addition, Hengyu Media also participated in four TV series: "I Am a Special Forces Soldier", "Love Apartment 2", "FHM" and "You Are My Brother".

Counting the four TV series it has directed, Hengyu has produced a total of ten TV series this year.

Among them, "Young Bao Zheng", "Deep Sea Spy War" and "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" have been played.

Of the remaining seven dramas, two are in talks for the first round and will be aired by the end of the year.

Five more films are currently being filmed and will not be released until next year.

After the film and television department reported, Lin Feifei, director of the film production department and vice president of the company, took up the topic.

"Mr. Fang, everyone, the production share, TV copyright, online copyright, audiovisual copyright, Asian copyright, and advertising revenue of "囧囧" have all been received. The total is 260 million yuan!"

As soon as Lin Feifei opened her mouth, she threw a big cake into the conference room, making everyone dizzy.

260 million!

I checked and found out that the net profit ratio was so much higher than that of "Four Famous Catchers"!

Bang bang bang!

The conference room spontaneously burst into joyful applause.

Fang Ziheng smiled very happily.

He really didn't expect that "囧囧" with a total box office of just over 600 million could bring such considerable profits.

This time, the company's cash flow will be more abundant.

After everyone was happy, the financial director delivered a report of Hengyu Media's total income and expenditure.

It records in detail all the film and television projects that Hengyu Media has controlled and participated in this year, as well as the investment projects of the investment department.

Income and expenses are clear at a glance!

Fang Ziheng was looking around and his eyes came to the last column.

560 million!

Hengyu currently has more than 500 million in cash on its books!

Add in the 200 million in his personal account, which is 760 million.

With so much money, you have to think carefully about how to spend it!

Only when money is spent can it continue to grow, accumulating more and more like a snowball.

If you keep it in your hands or deposit it in the bank, you will never get rich.

It’s time for Hengyu Media’s fourth investment to officially begin.

The regular meeting lasted for more than an hour.

After lunch, Fang Ziheng called Lin Feifei, Andy, Investment Department Liu Minghui, and Variety Department Director Yan Min to his office.

At the company's executive meetings, Fang Ziheng usually only talks about the progress of various tasks and the company's revenue and expenses.

At the beginning of each project, he would not discuss it at the conference, but would call people to his office for face-to-face discussions.

"Everyone sit down!"

In the office, Fang Ziheng personally poured tea for the four of them.

Subsequently.

He took out a document and said to the four people: "The company established a variety show department before, but it has not been running well. This will not work. With the advent of the smartphone era, more and more people like to use mobile phones to surf the Internet. When the 4G network covers the country Once implemented, Internet speeds will accelerate, and the spring of film, television, and variety shows will also come."

"So, it is imperative to launch a variety show. I have two ideas. Please help me with the details.

Director Yan, especially you, you are an expert in variety shows, so you are not allowed to hide your secrets! "

After speaking, Fang Ziheng smiled softly and looked at a middle-aged man in his early forties in front of the desk.

He is Yan Min, a variety show director who studied drama and finally embarked on the path of variety shows.

At this time, Yan Min was not very famous. He had not become the deputy director of the "Sound of Asia" program, nor had he directed or planned "Extreme Challenge".

Half a month ago, Fang Ziheng asked Lin Feifei to take action and recruit him to Hengyu Media.

The purpose is naturally to develop Hengyu Media's variety show projects.

Seeing the boss looking up to her in such a way, Yan Min showed an embarrassed smile, stood up and affirmed: "Mr. Fang, you have praised me, I will tell you everything I know."

"Sit down. You don't need to be so polite with me. You can take a look at these two planning documents first and see if you have any clues?"

Fang Ziheng raised his hand and pointed at the distributed documents with a friendly expression.
