After hearing what Jackie said, Lorraine smiled.
I understand, of course I understand.
Out of taboo, Jackie didn't explain it too obviously, but Lorraine already understood.
Local businesses squeeze out outsiders, a tradition that applies everywhere.
And the so-called tricks probably refer to the methods of the so-called "big brothers" and film investment tycoons in the local area, right? They more or less have a sense of blackness, which is a style of doing things that has been passed down from very early times.
Many movies also tell stories about black societies somewhere. Although most of the movies are a bit exaggerated, many of them are adapted based on reality. Especially those movies that depict the underworld, many of which are invested and filmed by a certain big brother. As for their purpose, there is no need to explain, right? It's obvious.
It is no longer news that many big-name celebrities in the entertainment industry are involved in gangs.
Therefore, when Lorraine realized this problem, she frowned slightly and said to Mr. Jackie: "Brother Jackie, if this is the case, what should I do to better invest in the film industry?"
Hearing this, Jackie suddenly smiled: "Brother Xiao Luo, the answer to this question is obvious. You should be able to think of it, right? - All roads lead to Rome. Sometimes, even if you take a detour and spend more time, it will be easier. Leading to the target point.”
Seeing Jackie's smile, Lorraine suddenly realized: "Oh, brother, you mean... let me invest in domestic movies first?"
Jackie smiled and said nothing.
Lorraine looked a little worried just now, but now she felt relieved and smiled slightly: "Haha, it seems that I am a bit over the top. I am too anxious to open the market in the three places, but I have sacrificed myself for the sake of the last. Recently these In 2018, our domestic films have developed rapidly and already have good international box office capabilities, right?"
Jackie nodded: "Yes, today's domestic movies are becoming more and more developed, and with the exchange of the Internet, the relationship between various regions in China is closer. In fact, the so-called traditional hongkong movies are no longer an obvious definition. . You should have noticed long ago that many movies are actually cross-regional collaborations between directors, actors, and screenwriters from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places. - So I feel that if you want to invest in the film industry, you can start with the mainland film market. . And in the Mainland, I have also made many friends, whether they are actors, singers, producers, directors or screenwriters. If you are ready to start a film career, I will recommend more friends with good connections in the industry. Let me get to know you.”
After listening carefully to what Jackie said, Lorraine made up her mind: "Okay, then I will start from the Mainland Film Market. - In fact, I have a good script in my hand now. If Jackie can help me, I will I think... we should be able to get twice the result with half the effort."
Lorraine has a good script in hand
He didn't just talk nonsense. In fact, if he wanted to, he could come up with at least dozens of masterpiece-level movie scripts that would win international film awards.
"Brother Xiao Luo, my salary is very expensive." Jackie made a joke, then said, "Haha, it's just a joke. If your script is good, it doesn't matter if I star for free."
After thinking quickly, Lorraine changed her mind and said, "With Jackie's words, I feel quite confident. But let's stop talking about this matter first. When I finish the script, then Let me take a look at it for you. In addition, I have another very important thing that I would like to ask for your help, Jackie."
"Oh? What happened?"
So, Lorraine told Jackie in a simple and clear way that she and her grandfather were going to attend a charity party as fundraisers this weekend.
After Jackie heard what Lorraine said, she immediately showed great enthusiasm. She didn't even hesitate and immediately agreed: "Okay! No problem, I will definitely go to the charity gala. On special occasions, especially when Brother Xiaoluo invites me, I will naturally not be absent."
As we all know, Mr. Jackie often does charity. Although it often feels like a show, it is actually just good publicity. He does every charity task personally and calls on friends around him to do charity together. This is This spirit is indeed worthy of respect and admiration.
Therefore, when he heard Lorraine invite him to attend the charity gala, he immediately agreed.
On the one hand, he did charity, and on the other hand, he did a favor to Lorraine. Why not get the best of both worlds
"I have another request. I wonder if Brother Jackie can agree to it." Lorraine paused and said directly, "I know Brother's influence and appeal. If possible, can you find more artists in the industry? Are you going to attend this charity gala?"
"Haha, of course there is no problem with this. Even if you don't tell me, I plan to inform some. - Is there a quota limit for the charity party? How many friends in the circle should I invite?"
Lorraine didn't think much about it, and immediately smiled and said: "Haha, let's do charity. Of course, the more the merrier."
… …
After making an agreement with Jackie, Lorraine returned to the apartment.
He doesn't plan to go to the company these two days, but is going to stay in his bedroom and record the plot of the classic movie from his previous life in words.
It was a charity-themed movie that Lorraine saw in 2020. In the entire movie, no staff took a penny into their pockets. It was such a movie that created 3 billion people around the world. The total box office revenue in RMB broke all box office records for Chinese-language films in history. Although it is still far behind the box office revenue of those blockbusters in the Hollywood box office rankings, it has indeed created a miracle for Chinese-language movies.
Regardless of the many bright stars from the Chinese world who were invited to the movie, the script is still very meaningful and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is divided into four stories, each telling a series of touching and simple scenes that change reality. , hundreds of well-known actors performed sincerely in the movie for free in order to support charity. This in itself is also a gimmick and appeal.
Lorraine decided to first roughly conceive the script of the movie. Although it was a product of 2020, charity is an everlasting theme, so it doesn’t matter when it appears.
As for this movie, if it was promoted through Lorraine's hands, it would definitely have a charity theme. Speaking of which, I would also like to thank that bastard for giving me this inspiration and idea. - Lorraine is thinking that if he sets up a film company, he must first make his reputation known. Although there are so many film companies in the entire country of China, the ones that can be talked about and familiar with are also There are only a few of them.
After thinking deeply about how to stand out from these film companies, Lorraine felt that promoting the following humanitarian spirit through charity should resonate with many people. Although this is more or less borrowing from the east wind, it is indeed a good method.
What's more, Lorraine has initially decided that if her movie is successfully shot and released, all box office revenue will be donated to charity! If we don’t make money, let’s earn word-of-mouth, popularity and support! Only with these can we create more and greater value!
… …
In the apartment, Kang Mengmeng and Han Xuan were sitting in the living room watching TV.
Kang Mengmeng chewed gum, held Spongebob in her arms, blinked and said to Han Xuan beside her: "Sister Han Xuan, what do you think is wrong with Lorraine these days? She stays in the bedroom and doesn't even come out. This is not like that The way a big bad guy does things."
Han Xuan raised her head and turned to look at the closed door upstairs, with a hint of worry on her face, and said helplessly: "Haha, I don't know, maybe they are planning to make money again." A big plan, right?”
These two little beauties never imagined that Lorraine, a businessman, was lying in front of the computer desk, thinking hard about the movie script...
… …
Soon, it's the weekend.
At eight o'clock in the evening, a large charity party will be held on the top floor of the Longwan International Business Building in Beijing.
At about six o'clock, the party scene had been cleaned up, and the big shots were waiting to arrive one by one.
As the organizer of this charity conference, Wang Badan naturally came here early.
Today he is in a suit and leather shoes, handsome and handsome, sitting somewhere at the party with a smile on his face, looking at the tables and chairs that are still empty for the time being, imagining the lively scene more than an hour later, feeling a little proud in his heart Got a handful.
Tsk tsk, I am so young and so accomplished, but I am truly a diamond king! -In fact, in the circle around him, there are many beautiful and charming women who are young, wealthy and capable who are actively pursuing him. This is actually the most appropriate description of Wang Ba’s birthday.
Unfortunately, the "competitor" Lorraine he will face tonight is far superior to him.
"I wonder how many people the Li family can invite tonight?" Wang Badan had a confident smile on his face.
He has arranged a grand event today. All the big names signed under his company's name will come to the scene, and he will even bring some friends in the industry to the scene. Moreover, there are many celebrities and big shots that he met in this so-called "upper class society". They also accepted his invitation, gave him face, came to support him tonight, and promised to do their best for China's charity. A little effort.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!"
Just then, Wang Badan's cell phone rang.
After connecting to the mobile phone, the report was sent directly: "Boss, Mr. Wang has already taken the call. Can you please come up now?"
"Well, come on up. It won't be long before the guests will arrive one after another!"
