Are there any problems with inspiration?
Yang Ruoqian immediately became interested - he couldn't say anything else, but he was very confident in his inspiration.
If it weren't for the endless inspiration and creativity, Yang Ruoqian would have accepted his fate and started working. Why would he still be running around like he is now? Seeing that he had room to use his imagination again, Yang Ruoqian immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?"
Guo Fanming said directly, "Boss Yang, the entire script has been prepared, but we still have a little disagreement on the starting point."
As he spoke, Guo Fan took two documents from the table and introduced them: "This is..."
Yang Ruoqian didn't even look at the document, and without thinking, he blurted out: "Show off!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole room was silent for a few seconds, and everyone, including the original author, was unable to wrap their minds around it.
Shang Qianyu, who was squatting on the side watching the show, nodded in agreement: "Yes, being handsome is the most important!"
Others asked in confusion at the same time: "Huh?"
After the first part of "Wandering Blue Planet" became a huge hit, everyone's expectations for related works are that they should be hardcore while also having as many imaginative ideas as possible.
So when designing the plot, everyone tried their best to lean towards this aspect.
As long as the grand scenes and atmosphere of the first movie can be reproduced, there will be no shortage of sentimentalists and special effects fans who will pay for it.
Combined with the promotion and publicity from Chengyu Media and the reputation of Kuiguang Group, Guo Fan is indeed confident that this film can guarantee a box office of 1 billion.
but……
What does it mean to show off right from the start?
Guo Fan prepared himself mentally and asked, "Boss Yang, what do you mean by being so cool?"
Yang Ruoqian explained: "At the beginning, we create a big scene, such as a battlefield, such as a large area of ruins, and then... well, modify our country's latest fighter jets, change them to vertical take-off and landing versions, and let them fly on the battlefield."
After saying this, Yang Ruoqian was very satisfied with his creativity this time.
Although he is not a military fan, he is not completely ignorant of weapons and equipment. He knows that many things only look good but actually have very limited uses.
Moreover, the theme of the movie is hardcore science fiction. All mankind is working hard to push the earth out of the solar system, and suddenly there appears such a thing that has existed for a long time and is useless. How confused will the audience be?
In order to prevent the director and actors from using their amazing plot and acting skills to reverse the film's reputation, he thoughtfully placed this shot right at the beginning of the film! He knows who the audience of his own film is, and then he severely offends them.
“…”
Guo Fan ignored Shang Qianyu, who didn't understand anything and could only nod in agreement, and asked carefully: "Mr. Yang, are you sure you want to set this as the entry point of the movie?"
"Perhaps we can switch to equipment that looks more futuristic? I feel like what you're talking about is a little... a little behind the times?"
"No need." Yang Ruoqian waved his hand. "This kind of flashy feeling is what we want. Things that are too futuristic are purely based on imagination and don't have many anchors in reality. The audience will just think that the special effects are very well done."
"But if you modify equipment that already exists in reality, it won't feel that way at all."
"This vague sense of familiarity is what we want."
Even though he hasn't been involved in the specific content design of film and television dramas for a long time, Mr. Yang's ability to talk nonsense has not diminished in the slightest.
In the face of money, people can always unleash unimaginable potential.
Listening to Yang Ruoqian's nonsense, Guo Fan subconsciously wanted to refute him with his professional knowledge, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
One of the laws of Kuiguang Group is that the more outrageous what Mr. Yang says, the more it should be adopted.
The decision seems outrageous because Mr. Yang has broad knowledge, good vision, and many things to consider. It was made after comprehensive consideration of many conditions and factors.
Although Guo Fan didn’t know what the combined factors were, he didn’t know what happened that would cause the beginning of a movie to become like this.
But since it is the experience summarized by our predecessors, it is always right to listen to it.
Guo Fan immediately gave up thinking and said, "Okay, Mr. Yang, I'll change the plot now."
After finishing the introduction, Guo Fan said, "Mr. Yang, the recruitment of the school you designated has been almost settled. Do you need to see the list of recruited students?"
After all, this "winter recruitment" event was decided by Yang Ruoqian himself. Now that things have basically settled, it is reasonable for him to make the final review.
"No need." Yang Ruoqian waved his hand. "If you think there is any talent in the process of filming, you don't need to tell me what resources you think should be used to train him in the future. Just tell the operation department of the group and you can bring it. The group will pay for the training. Director Guo, please don't be polite. We have cooperated so many times. It's settled."
Yang Ruoqian’s calculations were very clear - based on his understanding of the crew, if Guo Fan really came across any good talent, he would definitely tell the group and let the group sign the contract.
The group now has many business projects. For matters like signing artists, as long as they are not first-line stars or above and involve a huge amount of money, the documents will not be placed on Yang Ruoqian's desk.
The newcomer who was praised by Guo Fan and the entire crew undoubtedly had huge potential, and Kuiguang Group was undoubtedly not welcome to him.
But these are such good seedlings, and they have done nothing wrong. It is not fair to cruelly reject the dreams that these students have worked so hard to achieve.
Now Yang Ruoqian has taken the lead and asked outstanding college students to follow Guo Fan, allowing Guo Fan to get resources from the group at will...
This not only saves college students from signing contracts with the group to make money, but also allows them to waste the group's resources without causing a waste of talent.
The only one who can be so comprehensive is Mr. Yang.
Guo Fan's expression suddenly became serious: "Boss Yang, don't worry about this."
As an experienced director, it only took him a second to analyze the meaning behind Yang Ruoqian's words.
Mr. Yang meant that if you encounter a good seedling, you must tie them up as soon as possible and let them sign a contract with Kuiguang Group! For this purpose, Kuiguang Group can throw a lot of resources, and some of these resources will also include Guo Fan.
Mr. Yang really... values talents.
For the sake of talent, he is really willing to devote a lot of resources to training.
As a director and collaborator, Guo Fan was filled with emotion and admiration.
Mr. Yang can actually go to such lengths to sign some new people!
Seeing Guo Fan's understanding expression and nothing else, Yang Ruoqian nodded: "So that's it?"
Guo Fan came back to his senses, nodded, and stood up: "That's it for now, Mr. Yang, take care. I'll contact you if there's anything else."
After a few pleasantries, Yang Ruoqian took Chang Zhiqing away from the crew.
Shang Qianyu, who had been squatting in the corner watching the show, also wanted to leave when she saw this. Unfortunately, before she had taken two steps, she was stopped by Guo Fan and asked to continue working part-time as a laborer and running errands on the set.
"Oh, this silly child." Chang Zhiqing sighed again.
When the two were leaving, they suddenly saw a dozen young men and women, looking exhausted and with newly obtained work certificates hanging around their necks, queuing up at the entrance of the studio to have their identities checked.
Are these the students who have successfully passed the "winter recruitment"? Yang Ruoqian took a quick look and found a familiar-looking girl among them.
It seemed like the last time I distributed milk tea, the last few bottles just happened to be in her hands?
After all the twists and turns, I was spotted by the crew. It's quite a coincidence.
Those students obviously noticed Yang Ruoqian. They immediately straightened up and greeted him.
"Boss Yang!"
"Good afternoon, Mr. Yang!"
“…”
Last time on the campus playground, the place was too big and there were too many people, and Yang Ruoqian left in a hurry, so not everyone saw him.
Yang Ruoqian smiled and nodded, got in the car and left, returning to the company.
After playing, there are always some work matters to deal with.
The secretary was waiting in the office early. She was bending over slightly, tidying up the slightly messy documents on the desk.
Hearing the sound of the door opening behind him, Qi Mu immediately turned around and said with a smile: "Boss Yang, you are back? Are you still in the mood to listen to my work report?"
Alas, after getting to know each other better, even the butler learned to joke.
Yang Ruoqian waved his hand, signaling her to pick out the important points, and also joked: "You deal with so much work every day, but you seem to be in good spirits?"
Qi Mu sat down and said with a smile: "Boss Yang, no one can resist the countless good news that comes every day. No matter how much good news there is, I won't get tired."
This is why the secretary is still energetic and motivated despite having such a heavy workload every day.
Just like no one would complain about having too much money, no one would feel tired if they heard news of big wins, huge wins or extra-big wins every day.
"It seems to be the same." Yang Ruoqian turned on the computer and said woodenly, "Is there any good news from the company recently?"
Qi Mu immediately returned to work: "Our group's IP theme park has officially opened. Because there are no limited edition souvenirs for sale, the ticket orders have decreased slightly, but these orders still far exceed the amusement park's capacity."
Kuiguang Theme Park does not sell as many tickets as the number of people who buy them.
In order to ensure every tourist's gaming experience, to prevent everyone from having to queue half the time when entering the amusement park, and to prevent tourists from queuing for an hour just to have a meal, there is a maximum limit on the daily passenger capacity.
The vast majority of people's orders fail.
So Qi Mu said that the slight drop in orders had no impact at all.
It's just the difference between an overflow of 1000% and an overflow of 900% of the passenger capacity.
Yang Ruoqian sighed and said, "So what do you think?"
Qi Mu said: "If you are willing to pay cash flow and continue to make heavy asset investments for IP, you can choose a province with market potential and try to build a new theme park."
Looking at the terrifying number of customers coming from all over the country, some from thousands of miles away, Yang Ruoqian knew that Qi Mu's decision could not be made.
He smiled dryly and said, "Just proceed step by step. It's not necessary for now... Speaking of IP, isn't Mag operating overseas IP? Is there any news from overseas now?"
Qi Mu looked at Yang Ruoqian strangely, but still said responsibly: "After the deserted island survival variety show ended, Mag immediately invited an engineering team to be responsible for the reconstruction of the island. The progress is still in the early stages."
Weird, when Mr. Yang went to the variety show, I heard that he and Mag shared a helicopter and had a meeting together for half a day...
Why do you have to ask such a basic question?
Didn't Mager tell Mr. Yang at that time? Yang Ruoqian, who only cared about Mager as a money-shredding machine, nodded and asked expectantly, "What about the publicity work? Has the progress been hindered? Do we need to invest more to strengthen the publicity efforts?"
Judging from your tone, Mr. Yang, it seems that you hope that overseas IP promotion will be hindered?
Qi Mu coughed lightly and continued, "Boss Yang, the overall promotion progress of IP overseas is very smooth."
Yang Ruoqian heard the hidden meaning in the secretary's words and asked, "The overall publicity is going smoothly, but what about the details?"
"Well... Mr. Yang, the promotion progress of our IP in Asia, especially in East Asia and Southeast Asia, is unexpectedly smooth. The trend of it being deeply rooted in people's hearts is no worse than that of traditional 'Kung Fu' back then."
"As long as we can maintain this trend and fully integrate into the market, even selling peripheral products will not be a problem."
"Especially in some markets where the entertainment industry is not so mature and cultural identity is stronger, IP creation progress is the fastest."
"The progress in the European and American markets is a little slower, but this is within everyone's expectations. After all, it takes many years and a lot of money to operate so many IPs to have the current influence, so we can't rush it. As long as the market there doesn't show obvious indifference, it's actually a success."
Not only did they not show indifference, they even showed a certain degree of acceptance.
But after all, it was just a trend, just data analysis on paper. Qi Mu still did not tell Yang Ruoqian about this irresponsible data.
The data will be placed on the president’s desk only after the initial phase of the entire project is completed and summarized.
As expected, there is good news everywhere... No wonder the secretary is so happy at work.
But fortunately, just as Qi Mu said, IP creation is a long process. Unless there are no accidents, it will take a long time for the sword of Damocles to fall.
Yang Ruoqian sighed: "What about the variety show?"
During this busy period, "The Trainee" is finally coming to an end.
Soon it will be the last episode of "The Trainee".
This is also the episode where the final winner is announced.
Qi Mu replied: "The final results have been counted, and we just need to wait for the last episode to be announced, and then the whole variety show will come to a successful conclusion."
ps: Here is a recommendation, fighting is awesome! (End of this chapter)
