The Director of Music Department

On Huaxin's side, with Wang Yifan's "The Martian" earning over 2 billion at the box office, and new stars' low-budget films continuing to succeed, it can be said that there was no two in the limelight for a while.

And because the small-budget films of the new stars have repeatedly made great achievements with their small ones, especially "Jaws", it has ignited topics and even affected major coastal tourist areas in terms of publicity and distribution, which also demonstrates Huaxin's publicity and distribution level.

Therefore, the situation has gradually opened up in terms of distribution. Although there are still some low-cost films for the time being, this is a very good start.

On the other side, Dai Ziyang's Era Project officially launched its first project.

If it is another company, small and small, it is naturally impossible to be so fast, but Times Lighting, even if it has gone downhill due to internal turmoil in the past two years, it is still one of the giants after all, so the resources of Times Lighting, in fact Still quite rich.

Although Dai Ziyang's ability is not very good, but the light and shadow of the times are not all for nothing.

Coupled with the name of Times Light and Shadow, as well as generous remuneration, it has attracted many capable screenwriters and new directors who want to go further.

The Times Project, unlike Wang Yifan's new stars, is looking for people from major art schools in China, which is a very good place to start.

After all, at least there will not be too many students or graduates of those film and television colleges in China.

So the plan went quite smoothly from the beginning.

The script was released very quickly, and the story of this script is even very legendary. It is said that it was created very early, but it has not been able to be adopted.

The theme of this script story is to tell the growth process of acting students, and to reflect the hardships and darkness of the actor's road from the story of different students' acting roads.

The era plan is to recruit new screenwriters, new directors, actors, etc. from major film and television academies across the country. Therefore, the script of "Journey to Dream in the Showbiz" was quickly approved and used as the era plan the first experimental project.

Then, Chen Fei, a graduate student of the Acting Department of Huaguo Jingdian, was selected as the director and starring role of the film!

Because this script came from Fade Chen.

Let's not talk about Fade Chen's ability, but after meeting with Dai Ziyang several times, he convinced Dai Ziyang to promote this project with all his strength.

The cost of "Dream Chasing Journey in the Showbiz" is not low, even if all the main actors are newcomers, but because the film needs to use a lot of expensive props and need to go to many places to shoot, so in the end this "three new" movie , the entire film cost as much as 30 million!

Although at the present stage, Huaguo's large-scale film productions cost more than 100 million can only be regarded as medium-cost, but "Journey to Dream in the Showbiz" is a product of the plan of the times, and the plan of the times It is a plan to imitate those low-budget films of new stars and support new directors. As a result, the production cost of 30 million yuan can really be said to be very high.

Of course, as the first film of Times Project, the film "Journey to Dream in the Showbiz" is not a trivial matter in the announcement. After all, Times Light and Shadow also needs this movie to give Times Project a good start. One shot!

Although Fade Chen is a newcomer in the entertainment industry, his academic qualifications are really high. Even Wang Yifan was a little surprised. Before that, Fade Chen was a master's student in the Acting Department of the Beijing Film Academy, and he was also a doctoral student.

So although I have never acted in a movie and it is my first time making a movie, this resume is indeed impressive enough.

Anyway, Wang Yifan himself, and even the actors and directors he has worked with, are not as highly educated as Fade Chen.

Of course, honorary professors like Ma Qingshan who are famous in colleges and universities are exceptions.

At the same time, in a conference room of Times Light and Shadow, a theme meeting for the announcement of "Journey to Chase Dreams in the Showbiz" is being held.

Under normal circumstances, the scale of publicity and release of such "small-cost" movies will definitely not be too large. Usually, they will be officially released only after small-scale screenings have accumulated word-of-mouth.

After all, this movie, from the screenwriter, to the director, to the actors, is all newcomers, without any so-called box office appeal.

This kind of movie promotion itself lacks gimmicks.

But Fade Chen firmly opposed this conventional distribution process.

"I have absolute confidence in the film. It is almost August now. If we conduct small-scale screenings and expand the number of screenings, then the release will be in September, or even the National Day file in October. However, "The Showbiz Chasing Dreams" Most of the participants in "Journey" are school students, and the background of the film is also in the university era. The main audience is school students and young people. In September, all schools will reopen, and the actors cannot participate in the promotion. Originally, the National Day file was a good time, but everyone knows that our film was not liked by the higher-ups when it was reviewed, so if it is really released on the special time of the National Day file, there may be some It's an unexpected situation, so my suggestion is to release it as soon as possible!" A new director like Fade Chen didn't have much right to speak.

But Dai Ziyang admired Fade Chen very much, and Fade Chen himself was full of confidence, that's why he said this.

Dai Xinyue frowned. She hadn't watched the movie so far, and she couldn't make an objective judgment on this movie, but to be honest, Dai Xinyue didn't like Chen Fei very much, because she always felt that this Chen Fei was too Self-righteous, she has no idea where Fade Chen's confidence comes from.

He is just a newcomer, and he uses some domestic college students to perform. Note that the domestic film and television colleges mentioned here are not only the Beijing Film Academy, the Huaguo Drama Academy, but more people who don’t know Students from famous second- and third-tier film and television colleges.

Without any celebrity joining, they are at a disadvantage in publicity. If it is safest, it is natural to hold a small-scale screening first to accumulate word of mouth, and then expand the screening, but Fade Chen is extremely impatient.

Although it is undeniable that what he said has some truth, Dai Xinyue still opposes this distribution method.

It's just that Dai Ziyang is in charge of the era plan, so she doesn't have much say in this aspect.

Finally, with the support of Dai Ziyang, the announcement of "The Journey of Chasing Dreams in the Showbiz" was officially finalized, skipping the screening, and directly released on a large scale!

Moreover, in order to expand the influence of this movie, Dai Ziyang waved his hand and agreed to Fade Chen's request to hold a grand premiere of "Journey to Chase Dreams in the Showbiz".

If it is Fade Chen, then to be honest, even if he is indeed highly educated, he is really useless in the entertainment industry, at least those big stars and big directors, no one will cheer him up, but if Times Light and Shadow fully supports him, That's another matter.

After all, Times Light and Shadow holds a large proportion of theater chains, and everyone still has to give this face.
