The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 111 Establish Fund

Two movies were played in the morning, and Zhou You watched them with endless enjoyment. After all, I don't have any pressure now and I am in a very leisurely mood.

I no longer think that reading these things is a waste of time, but enriches myself.

At noon, we went around to prepare and invited Wang Le and others to dinner.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun ran over to him and said: "Mr. Zhou, the organizer of this documentary screening invites you to dinner and invites you to join us at noon."

Zhou You thought for a while and said: "Let me invite you. It's just a good time to have a chat. I'll call all the directors who are participating this time. It's a good time to get to know each other."

Zhao Yun was not polite to him. He chuckled and said, "Okay, I guess I don't mind if you take the lead. These directors are all waiting for help."

After saying that, Zhao Yun ran to talk about this matter.

After a while, a dense group of people, led by Zhao Yun, came towards Zhou You.

I looked around and found that most of them were men, about seven or eight, and only two women. In this industry, we often have to go out alone. Sometimes it is really inconvenient for women. Even if there are female directors, there will be some problems when going out to shoot. The male follows.

The two parties approached, Zhao Yun began to introduce one by one,

Zhou Hao also didn't expect such a big surprise today: "I am considered an old man in the documentary industry. I have been filming for so many years. I have suffered all the hardships I have to endure, and I still have so many resources and connections. I want to It’s difficult to do these things.”

“The main thing is to keep a video record, so we won’t take pictures later when we are having dinner,” the shooting director explained.

Zhou You had no objection, but still warned: "I'm not used to appearing on camera. Let's just take a video and keep it as video data. We won't take any more pictures later. It's just right. When we have dinner later, I also want to say something personal. Thoughts and future plans”

"This is Zhang Yuanlong, Director Zhang"

"However, you may not know that my job is to be a university teacher, and I am a trouble-free person."

"Director Zhou is so polite. I have read your Brother Long and the mission. They are very interesting." Zhou You said sincerely.

After entering the box, Zhou You invited Zhou Hao to the main seat. Firstly, he admired him, and secondly, he was the organizer of this conference.

Seeing that everyone was quite excited, Zhou You stopped for a while, and then continued after everyone's excitement subsided: "In addition, I have also invested in several companies. I don't know how big these companies can be in the future. , but we will definitely get involved in the video industry. If our documentaries do not violate national laws and regulations, then they will be released first.”

As soon as Zhou You finished speaking, all the documentary directors became even more excited. For them, it was no exaggeration to say that a long drought would bring good rain.

Holding an event is sometimes more tiring than shooting a documentary. There are too many things that need to be communicated, especially for someone like him who is purely losing money.

<divclass="contentadv">Zhou You saw that while they were eating, there was a director filming: "What is going on? Do we have to film the entire meal?"

"Perhaps the most well-known documentary is the documentary A Bite of Food. In fact, there was also a documentary directed by Chen Weijun some time ago. I also invested in the documentary directed by Chen."

Hearing what Zhou You said, the director turned off the camera.

"Since we all have the chance to get together, I personally admire you very much and have watched many documentaries, especially Director Zhou's. However, everyone is aware of the current situation of documentaries."

"As far as I know, there are two main difficulties that everyone is encountering now. First, there are difficulties in funding for filming. Second, after the filming is completed, there is no release channel."

Seeing everyone getting more and more excited, Zhou You couldn't help but pour cold water on him: "You have to eat food one bite at a time and do things one by one. The shooting environment will not get better all of a sudden. All I can say is I will try my best to promote this matter."

Zhou Hao is well-informed. He has been a reporter for many years and has dealt with all kinds of religions. However, he really admires Zhou You: "I have also heard of Mr. Zhou, and I have always wanted to ask Zhao Yun for a recommendation, but I have been filming documentaries some time ago and have no time." , take this opportunity to meet the investment boss of our documentary.”

It was a pleasure to travel around and get to know so many directors.

It is indeed a bit uncomfortable to travel around, but these people who shoot documentaries have basically developed a habit. When they meet curious and interested people, including this exhibition, some people record and shoot the whole process.

……

"As soon as I heard this, I knew that Mr. Zhou really loves documentaries. I personally think that the biggest feature of documentaries is that they are interesting. This is interesting. It is not just fun and funny, but after watching it, it will make you feel that society is very It’s wonderful, everyone is also wonderful.” Zhou Hao was also very happy to meet people who really like documentaries.

Zhao Yun saw that the two of them were still chatting and quickly interrupted: "Let's go to eat later and chat slowly. I will continue to introduce you later."

Wang Le watched with great interest. He knew that Brother You was getting more and more powerful, but seeing the current situation, his status in the documentary was not low.

After hearing this, everyone whispered again. After all, Director Chen can be regarded as a senior in the documentary industry.

Hearing this, everyone smiled knowingly. After all, the shooting cycle of some documentaries is too long.

"I also invested in several documentaries in the early stage, including those directed by Zhao Yunzhao, but he has not yet made a film."

Xiao Bai looked at it in confusion. He felt that so many directors were so good, but he didn't know that so many people were basically miserable.

"This is Deng Zhong, Director Deng."

"This is director Zhou Hao, who is also the organizer of this conference."

Zhou You was the first to extend his hand. He has also admired Zhou Hao for a long time and has never been able to meet him: "I have admired Zhou Hao for a long time. I have watched all of Director Zhou's documentaries and I like them very much. This time I finally get to meet the real person. I am very honored."

"Currently, I have some thoughts on two issues. The first is the issue of filming funds. I am going to set up a documentary filming fund specifically to support you in filming."

How did Wang Le know that this was simply a question of whether it was low or not, but a question of no one investing in it.

In the past, everyone used their own talents, some were resting on their laurels, some were selling houses, and some of them were not even seen by anyone after they were photographed. They were self-admiring and could not last long just for the sake of love.

"This is Zheng Qiong, Director Zheng."

Now that Zhouyou is willing to support this industry, it is a great good thing for them. Although they have not seen anything specific yet, the early investment of Zhouyou is enough to convince them.

A group of people didn't go far and found a box in the school.

At this point, the following documentary directors couldn't help but applaud, Zhou You's words spoke directly to their hearts.

Pause for a moment and see everyone listening to him attentively.

It's okay to ask Zhou You to contribute money, but not to contribute. You can't trap yourself in it.

Thank you for your support, I will continue to recommend it. Thank you very much.
