Chapter 1535 The Disadvantages of Grandpa’s Capital
Yang Dongxu didn't know that Zhou Ya's identity was exposed because of a casual action of helping Yun Qiyu.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much. After all, Zhou Ya didn't do anything illegal, or her identity was highly confidential.
As for the fact that Zhou Ya was so important in the news but was not highlighted, it was actually very simple. It was Zhou Ya's assistant at Runyu Foundation. Whenever Zhou Ya was on camera or taking photos at some activities.
They would negotiate with the organizer to blur it. Of course, it didn't mean that all shots were not so exaggerated. After all, Zhou Ya represented Runyu Foundation, and many meetings were proposed by Runyu Foundation. It was unreasonable not to give a shot.
They just asked not to close up when she was in the camera, and then mainly report on the meeting and charity afterwards, and don't take Zhou Ya out for a special report.
So Zhou Yao's identity was so important that many local leaders had to receive her in person every time she went to a place, but when she was emphasized in the publicity, she seemed like a small transparent person.
Those who understand this matter understand, and as for those who don't understand, there is no need to explain anything.
While people were paying attention to the battle between Weibo and Xuri Technology, Yang Dongxu was tinkering with smartphones.
When everyone was paying attention to smartphones, he started to tinker with games again.
Competitive games and mobile games are the general direction of future game development, so after a brief discussion with Sun Yang, they decided to adjust the direction of Xuri Technology's game development in this direction.
Of course, it doesn't mean that developing mobile games will not develop PC games.
For example, competitive games can only be put on PC games now, and mobile games are convenient for smartphones, but the performance of games can't keep up. So the Qifan platform can only be promoted on PC games.
For example, although it is ready to focus on the development of mobile games, Yang Dongxu has quietly taken over the dungeon on the Korean shore and is ready to launch it as tomorrow's fist product.
At a time when all game companies are focusing on large-scale 3D games, Yang Dongxu can say that the dungeon has been picked up by Yang Dongxu. There is no way to see how this looks like an arcade game. There is no factor that can make it explode.
After all, arcades are now a thing of the past. Except for the older generation, the new generation doesn't play this at all. Now children are playing other things.
When the post-80s and post-90s gradually get older, there will be no arcade market in the future. So no one is optimistic about Dungeon. Yang Dongxu didn't have to work hard at all, and he just got this game into his own bowl.
After keeping up with the times and correcting the future development direction of Sunrise Technology Company, Yang Dongxu and Liu Zongsheng and others went to Hengdian.
As the largest film and television photography base in China, a new round of expansion projects is about to begin.
This time, the new project needs not only Chinese elements, but also foreign elements. Because Yang Dongxu is trying to divert some Hollywood elements to China.
The popularity of Hollywood does not mean that Americans are really better than Chinese in movies, but that they have absorbed the strengths of various companies.
Famous directors, screenwriters, actors, etc. all over the world are proud to develop in Hollywood. This provides Hollywood with a steady supply of excellent fresh blood.
Compared with the strengths of your country, they will naturally have a great advantage when they gather the strengths of the world.
So if you want to catch up with others, you can't just work behind closed doors. You must retain your own foundation while absorbing new elements to keep up with the times.
Therefore, the new expansion has added a lot of foreign architectural and landscape elements. At the same time, Yang Dongxu has also communicated with the managers of Haina in Hollywood, trying to let some of the movies invested by Haina come to China for filming.
Now in the eyes of many foreigners, China is still a skinny country that was not well fed and clothed during the Republic of China period.
If you want to change the foreigners' perception of inequality in China, let more people understand China and learn Chinese culture, you must first show yourself, right?
Movies are undoubtedly a very good way to show, for example, many American blockbusters are American skyscrapers, which makes ordinary people feel that the United States is so developed.
In fact, except for the small area of the Twin Towers, other places in the United States are not as prosperous as the second- and third-tier cities in China.
Looking at all kinds of blockbusters in the United States, as long as they want to show the developed places in the United States, they are either the Twin Towers, or the aerial photography of the Statue of Liberty, or the Pentagon, or independent villas with swimming pools.
There are only a few so-called prosperous high-rise buildings, but the effect presented is that people who have never been to the United States feel that there are such high-rise buildings everywhere in the United States.
Similarly, if you want foreigners to think that China is no longer a backward and poor China, then you have to show your rapid development and your prosperous side. These are useless. No matter how much you say, it is not as impressive as a shot in the movie.
"You said that this is the model of the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, and it is also from the national TV station. When the time comes, it will be blown up in the movie, or it is a horror movie content, and zombies come in and out here. Will it pass the review?" Liu Zongsheng looked at the new planning map and asked with some concern.
Whether it is movie rating or movie scale, it is a fact that there is no comparison between China and foreign countries.
For example, in foreign movies, assassinations of presidents and bombing of the White House are commonplace. The Statue of Liberty has been blown up, monsters have pushed down the Statue of Liberty, or planes have crashed into it countless times. In China, it is undoubtedly taboo for such places to be blown up.
"Don't think the higher-ups are so stingy. The domestic film market has been booming in recent years. American blockbusters have set various box office records in China. Do you think the higher-ups don't want their own films to make money abroad?
So as long as it's not a matter of principle, many things can be discussed. Of course, some banned films must not be filmed. If you film banned films and show them abroad, those idiots who go abroad to show off, you should be careful not to sit crooked." Yang Dongxu said with a smile, and the latter sentence was obviously a joke.
But the joke part is limited to "sitting crooked". The rest are the bottom line that cannot be crossed.
"Don't worry, I know all this." With the guarantee of the big boss, Liu Zongsheng breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise the new expansion project is a bit large, and the money invested is indeed a bit scary.
"Just keep in mind. There will be a new movie coming to the mainland in a while. You can arrange the reception then.
See if you can squeeze in a few actors. They are not important roles. It is a good deal to follow the crew and learn the shooting methods of American big-budget movies.
By the way, speaking of actors, I remembered that Huayi poached people before, and how many of us left?"
"Not many, only three. All three of them have not been popular in the past few years. Seeing people around them become popular, they can't stand the loneliness and want to fight. According to your instructions, everything is carried out according to the contract without much difficulty.
But although only three people went to Huayi, Huayi has been inviting artists from our company to play this year, so I don't know whether these artists are from our company or work for them."
"They were almost poached. They can't even set up a frame to shoot a movie without looking for foreign aid. But the quality of the dramas they produced this year is not bad, and the performance of the few young actresses they are supporting is also very good. I think they will recover after two years." Yang Dongxu said.
After almost being cut off from the bottom of the pot, the Huayi brothers learned from their mistakes and were unwilling to put the chips in the hands of others, so they poached and promoted new artists everywhere to fill the holes of the artists who were taken away.
They constantly invited artists from Haina, in addition to the fact that Haina had many big-name artists and strong personal professional qualities, which could meet their various needs.
They also wanted to apologize to Haina after poaching people. After all, the artists invited were not guest appearances, so you must pay them.
They took the pay to shoot the drama, and when the drama became popular, Haina's artists would also become popular. This was equivalent to using money to help Haina cook, and the attitude of apology was very sincere.
"I heard that Hollywood is going to make a Marvel movie, and the first one has invested over 100 million dollars?"
"No chance, they are going to make Marvel a series, or even a big universe. For this kind of pioneering chapter, they will definitely use their own people at the beginning, to ensure that it will be a hit, and all the profits will be in their hands.
When this series is stable and popular, they will find some Asian actors to mix in according to the box office demand, but at most they will only be supporting roles, not the main roles."
As soon as Liu Zongsheng said this, Yang Dongxu understood what he meant.
"This is a bit aggrieved, after all, we are one of the investors." Liu Zongsheng pouted a little dissatisfied.
"This is the gap between capital and directors in China and Hollywood. In China, capital is the boss. I don't care whether the actor is suitable or not, I have to use him, so you can only use him.
In foreign countries, capital will also put actors they like in the movie. After all, who doesn't have friends and interests involved?
But in Hollywood, capital will not treat directors as puppets. Because film directors are professionals, capital relies on them to make money.
So the two sides will negotiate, and they will not think that capital is the boss in China and opinions are unquestionable. If there is a loss, it means the director is incompetent, and they don't even look at what kind of people they put in."
As the largest entertainment company in China, although Haina is big and powerful, it is a face-saving thing to take anyone to play, but it is still impossible to avoid being stuffed into the play.
The plays of those directors who have no money and no strength and need capital investment can be imagined.
In fact, the entertainment circles at home and abroad are similar, and various scandals and unspoken rules emerge in an endless stream.
But in foreign countries, when the unspoken rules give roles, I will only give you the role if you can play this role and it will not affect my future. Otherwise, there are many who will not admit it after sleeping with you.
In China, as long as you make the boss happy, you can be the protagonist. As for whether you are suitable for the role, I say you are suitable, who dares to have an opinion?
So many times it is not that the director is not good, nor that the script of the screenwriter is not exciting enough, but that there are too many bosses, and they are all bosses who have the final say and cannot be questioned.
