Chapter 704: Dont let the wealth go to outsiders(1/2)
"Mr. Zhang, you are willing to help with such a difficult matter. What are your requests? Just ask, as long as I can do it, I will help."
At this time, we should be more active. We can't just wait for the seniors to open their mouths for everything. That would be a huge loss of face?
Lao Zhang laughed heartily and said, "Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, you are really, what can I say?"
"I don't ask for anything, I'm helping you for free, but you're still not used to it? Do you have to ask me to ask for something? Only after you spend a lot of money can you feel normal and feel comfortable?"
Ah, this...
Wu Di was embarrassed for a while.
"Mr. Zhang, I didn't mean that. I just felt that I couldn't receive the favor in vain, so..."
There are actually such young people in the world, and Lao Zhang was also deeply shocked.
"You, just keep it in your heart. This time I am willing to help. You don't have to be burdened."
"If you can't figure it out, just think about who is the director of this movie?"
Wu Di stared with a dumb look on his face: "Director?"
"Xiao Qi and me!"
"That's it. You are also one of the directors. You said this yourself. If I recommend Xiao Qi, doesn't that mean I recommend you?"
"Regardless of whether you win the award or not, as long as you can enter the semi-finals, you can get a nomination. These are qualifications and will be of great benefit to you in the future."
Wu Di suddenly understood and looked at Lao Zhang with admiration. It was only then that he truly realized what it means to be ginger or to be old and spicy.
Lao Zhang is Lao Zhang, really, absolutely amazing!
yes!
Nominating Xiao Qi is equivalent to nominating him Wu Di, which is another good show where the wealth does not go to outsiders.
Enlightened!
Completely enlightened!
…………
The expected trouble was solved in such a relaxed way. Wu Di was in a good mood and hummed a little tune all the way back to his own room from Lao Zhang's room.
His steps were so brisk that he was about to fly.
Without further ado, let’s call Xiao Qi first. He was very worried and anxious.
really.
Before the beeps rang three times, the phone was picked up.
After hearing that the person he could recommend was Lao Zhang, there was no reply from Xiao Qi for a long time. Wu Di thought he had died and shouted several times. It took about five seconds before news came from the other side.
The voice was always mixed: "Lao Zhang?"
"Is it really Lao Zhang?"
"Boss Wu, you didn't lie to me?"
Wu Di was helpless: "How could I lie to you? I only know a limited number of great directors. If not Lao Zhang, who else could I turn to?"
"I had already thought about finding Lao Zhang before, but the filming schedule has been too tight recently, and I haven't found a suitable opportunity, so I held it back and didn't tell you about it. Now, I won't lie to you. Besides,
,What good will it do me to lie to you?"
"I'm bragging here that I took care of Lao Zhang, but when you delivered the movie, it didn't happen at all. I still want to offend you. Am I sick?"
"You're not sick. Of course you're not sick. Okay. I won't tease you anymore. Lao Zhang agreed. I'm so excited!"
"Wait a moment, I need to slow down. In this way, I will go to you with the samples early tomorrow morning, and you can send me the address."
Xiao Qi's voice was filled with excitement, as if he would be standing on the podium at the Water City Film Festival in the next second.
Countless spotlights are bombarding him, and he is the center of attention!
No longer the humble newcomer Xiao Qi!
He is Director Qi!
It’s Director Qi Da!
In this current era, this is still the trend. As a director, no matter how unknown you were before, as long as you can walk around in the three major majors, let alone win the grand prize, even if you are shortlisted, you will be a big fan.
of.
When you return to the domestic entertainment market, your value will change suddenly, and the tide will rise.
Therefore, don't blame newcomers like Xiao Qi and others for having some unrealistic illusions about the three universities, as if they can be completely transformed after reaching the three universities.
This is entirely the work of circle culture and the general market environment.
"Xiao Qi, don't be anxious. Director Zhang is also very busy filming. How can I tell you today and help you watch the film tomorrow? You have to give the old man some time."
"Then when is the right time? The deadline is only two months away. I'm really anxious!"
Of course Xiao Qi was anxious.
Not only did he want Lao Zhang to watch his masterpiece quickly, so that he, a veteran director, could get to know him, Xiao Qi, a newcomer.
At the same time, if he can hear a little guidance from a great director, even just one or two sentences, it may help him avoid detours in his career.
Of course, if you can meet Lao Zhang as soon as possible, the benefits are endless. If you can complete the registration as soon as possible, you can do a lot of things.
The entertainment industry, to put it bluntly, is also a big fan of information. You see, the three major film festivals every year attract a lot of attention in the country, especially among movie lovers. Their status is respected and quite transcendent.
In the minds of ordinary viewers, and even passers-by, there has long been a concept that the three major film festivals are very powerful, and as long as they can be shortlisted and participate, then this director is definitely extremely talented.
of.
An absolute rising star!
Therefore, the significance of the three majors is not just to win awards, but its significance is not limited to winning faces in front of international judges. More importantly, it also requires flowers outside the wall and fragrance inside.
The gains in the three major aspects are used to highlight the value of the industry. As long as you have such a resume, it will be quite easy to make new films or attract investment in the future.
As a new director, Xiao Qi will definitely gain more attention in the industry. Not to mention others, even Lao Zhang, a veteran, will have Xiao Qi's face imprinted on his mind.
Isn’t this just connections?
Doesn’t this situation open up?
Moreover, if Lao Zhang takes action, this transaction will almost make a profit without losing any money. A nomination can at least make a profit.
Xiao Qi has just directed a film independently. He can be said to be a brand new person in the directing industry. As soon as he started, he was nominated for three major awards. It can be said that this starting point is quite outstanding.
For Xiao Wu, this is simply a huge profit from a business without any capital!
It was Wu Di who sacrificed face, and it was Xiao Qi who gained benefits. How could there be such a good thing in this world?
It's okay to have such a good thing, but it happened to him, Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi was simply blessed with good luck!
What's more, Xiao Qi also had a small hidden request that he never mentioned to Wu Di, and it happened that Lao Zhang could help with this matter.
Therefore, he was very anxious to meet Lao Zhang. As soon as Wu Di said it, he became anxious immediately.
"Three days!"
"You wait three more days to get everything ready. Let me tell you, Mr. Zhang is a very demanding person, and he is also extremely harsh. He has already said that although he agreed to me, he wants to
When he comes out, your work must be good and the quality must be guaranteed. Moreover, after all, we are asking others to do things, so you must perform better yourself."
"Don't be too anxious and panic. When the time comes, you won't be fully prepared. If Mr. Zhang regrets it, I won't be able to blame him."
Wu Di is not someone who takes things for granted. Although, in the end, it was Xiao Qi who took advantage of this matter. If she, Wu Di, had not been assigned a task, it would have been impossible for her to help him with this favor.
What is he planning?
It's investment, starring, and running around to make connections. The hard work is all his own. Apart from making movies, Xiao Qi almost doesn't worry about anything else.
Isn’t it a big loss for Boss Wu?
Boss Wu is indeed at a loss. What is even more annoying is that no one knows about his loss, and he cannot tell others the reason.
Only a mute can eat Coptis chinensis.
pitiful!
How hateful!
Xiao Qi humbly agreed and could only prepare patiently. Wu Di was right. Lao Zhang was a big shot in the industry and had a very bad temper.
It's so grand, how can ordinary people pass it easily?
Don't raise your tail just because of Boss Wu's recommendation. If you make Lao Zhang unhappy by then, everything will be over.
"What's all this about?"
"I always feel that I am the one who suffers, and everyone else gains." After dealing with Xiao Qi, Wu Di sighed with emotion.
This is indeed the case.
What does it mean to suffer a loss?
What is taking advantage?
