Chapter 2562 Good News

Capital, Jiasheng Media.

Early in the morning, the heads of various departments rushed to the meeting room as soon as they arrived at the office. The lights there were already on, and it was estimated that Mr. Chen was already waiting there.

Because the company has been developing smoothly recently, or has always been, and there have been no sudden incidents or emergencies recently, combined with the time difference and previous experience, everyone can almost be sure that this emergency meeting this morning is probably related to the big boss in the United States.

Sure enough, because everyone arrived early, at the emergency meeting held at 9 o'clock, Chen Tao, general manager of Jiasheng Media, did not say any nonsense at all, and directly told everyone, "Mr. Feng just sent an email, hoping that we can seriously learn from Hollywood's experience in making mainstream movies and carefully prepare one or two projects."

Mainstream movies made by Hollywood?

This sounds a bit strange, but when everyone thinks about it, there are really many mainstream movies made by Hollywood.

Whether it is a biographical film, or a war film about Station One, World War II, the Vietnam War, and the current Afghanistan and Iraq Wars, even some sports-themed movies, and some science fiction films, they can indeed be said to be mainstream movies in the United States.

Many of them are very impressive, and everyone present can easily name several of them.

"He hopes that if possible, it would be best to have a war-related project, whether it is to show a big war or focus on a part of a grand war; whether it is to create a group portrait or to focus on a certain individual; whether it is to dig out from real historical facts or to make up against a real historical background; whether it is our feudal dynasty's foreign war or the Anti-Japanese War... all are fine,"

"Although this is not something to be proud of, the fact is that we are not short of such materials,"

This is indeed true.

From the mid-19th century to the hundreds of years before the founding of the People's Republic of China, we have experienced too many wars.

Behind the simple records in the history books, behind the events simplified into numbers, there are too many heavy memories, too many unyielding, sad and tearful struggles.

From the perspective of film and television production, there is indeed no shortage of such materials.

"But in these aspects, we haven't produced many works that can be called classics."

There are actually quite a few domestic works in this regard, including some with huge investments, but their overall level is really far behind Hollywood.

Either they are too straightforward, and some people who are familiar with history can guess the direction of the plot, let alone the lines that follow.

Or they are too simple, and the characters are too stereotyped.

In this regard, the only film that has an international influence, "Red Sorghum", caters more to the tastes of foreigners, because the large-scale adaptation of the original play, to be honest, makes domestic audiences feel a little awkward.

But look at Hollywood, such as Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan", although there are also controversies about whether the "eight for one" is reasonable and whether it will really happen, the overall effect is to catch people's attention, and many people in the world will regard that movie as a classic.

In 2006, he served as a producer, and "Flags of Our Fathers" directed by old cowboy Clint Eastwood, although there are also problems of this and that, but from that perspective, it is also worth learning from to explain a well-known historical event in the United States.

In the past, Feng Yiping could only complain about these situations, but now he feels that he has the ability to do something in this regard.

"In this regard, I have to do self-examination. Mr. Feng has long told me to produce at least one work related to the War of Resistance every year, but so far, we have not made any achievements in this regard,"

"So this time, I hope that we can produce one or two satisfactory works,"

"Mr. Feng promised me that as long as it is a good project, there is no upper limit in terms of investment,"

"We can form the best team, from the best screenwriter to the best director, the best actor, the best photographer..."

"But if there is no improvement in this regard, then this will affect our annual assessment in the future," Chen Tao said finally.

This sentence is still more effective. He saw that after hearing this sentence, at least everyone was a lot more nervous.

He also imagined that some people would be somewhat resistant to Feng Yiping's decision. After all, with the current strength of Jiasheng Media, it is entirely possible to produce more projects that can easily make profits. Why should we stick to such a difficult aspect?

"Mr. Chen," the head of the publicity team asked, "Is this related to next year's grand celebration?"

Next year is the 60th anniversary of the founding of our country, a grand celebration, and there will inevitably be a series of activities, including a series of tribute works.

"It's not just for next year's grand celebration, this is what we have to do every year in the future," said Chen Tao.

As a private media company, tribute is not their main task, some state-owned studios do such work.

"Okay, let's discuss the specific implementation plan..."

In Los Angeles, after lunch, Feng Yiping did not go to Marvel to work. He came to the mansion in Beverly Hills, seemingly leisurely with Collins' tail, strolling in the garden.

But Wu Qian and all the assistants were unusually busy this afternoon.

They had to contact the well-known media that Feng Yiping preferred, and also contact some well-known celebrities. Most importantly, they had to write speeches according to the outline listed by Feng Yiping.

They all knew that the boss was picky in this regard, and the boss's attainments in this regard, so they also knew that it was normal to rewrite such a manuscript four or five times.

As expected, before leaving get off work in the afternoon, Feng Yiping called back everyone's manuscripts. This night would be a sleepless night for all his assistants.

Afterwards, Jin Ling, who was busy in the office, also received his call.

"Do you think it would be useful if I organized a group of well-known American writers to visit China?"

After listening to Feng Yiping's words, Jin Ling suddenly felt a headache, "I know that you hope to do more things. I can understand your idea. You always feel that you have the responsibility to do more things."

She knew very well that the reason why Feng Yiping came up with this idea was that many people did not understand the current situation in China.

For example, many Americans' understanding of us is mainly based on the intentional distortion of news by the American media.

Let those well-known American writers visit China. If someone can create a work like Marco Polo's Travels based on this, it will undoubtedly be very beneficial.

And Feng Yiping does have such strength and influence to organize such a visiting group.

"But it is different from the visiting group of corporate leaders you organized last time. By the way, the luxurious visiting group of corporate leaders you organized last time also caused us a lot of trouble. Do you remember it?"

Feng Yiping certainly remembered that because of such a big move, they did not communicate too much with some departments in advance.

So later, some units were happy and annoyed at the same time. They felt that if they could make more adequate preparations, the effect would undoubtedly be better.

But Jin Ling also knew that Feng Yiping just liked to have less contact with those departments.

"But think about it, your idea this time is related to publicity, brother. Do you think we can just do it on our own?"

"I know," Feng Yiping was naturally clear about this, "but there are ways to do it."

"It's not that I feel responsible. This time, I really want to do something. Just tell me, facing the current situation, can we not be annoyed?"

The torch relay in London today made many people in China angry. Feng Yiping didn't know what happened during the torch relay in San Francisco before, but overall, it would definitely not be calm.

He couldn't stand this situation.

"You should contact the relevant units first and test the waters so that we can decide the next step. Thank you for your hard work!" In order to prevent Jin Ling from arguing, he hung up the phone in a hurry and answered Fitch's call, "Feng," Fitch sounded a little excited, "I think I have good news about Mia Farrow,"
