Now that the film and television adaptation rights of "You Are Not a Commoner" have been obtained by Shenzhen Shenzhen, "Party A and Party B" will most likely not be released, and it will be difficult for Feng Xiaogang to participate in this Lunar New Year film.
Yu Dong didn't want to talk more about "You Are Not a Common Man", so he asked Jimmy again, "You specifically went to Yanjing Film Studio once, but there was no result?"
Jimmy shook his head, "No, but it is expected. In the end, we have to pass the test of Zhang Heping of Forbidden City Pictures. Of course, this meeting was not useless. At least we found out Han Shanping's attitude.
.Since Han Shanping wants to cooperate with us, I will be more confident about this matter."
"If the cooperation with Forbidden City Pictures does not come to fruition this time, what choice will you make? Get ready to compete with Forbidden City Pictures?"
Based on Yu Dong's understanding of Jimmy, now that he already knows about the Lunar New Year holiday, he shouldn't give up easily. Even if the cooperation with Forbidden City Pictures fails, he will not let go of this opportunity.
Yu Dong is now curious about what Jimmy will do if he cannot reach a cooperation with Forbidden City Pictures.
Jimmy said with a smile: "Then we have no choice but to confront him head-on."
Yu Dong nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Jimmy did things in a measured way and he didn't need to worry about anything extra.
In fact, Jimmy has the confidence to say this. During the Deep Space Annual Meeting last year, he visited Jiang Xianyong, the director of the Film Bureau, and got some promises from Jiang Xianyong.
If the path of Forbidden City Pictures doesn't work, Jimmy can continue to follow the path of the film bureau and not ask for more care from the film bureau. At least when Deep Space Company and Forbidden City Pictures start fighting with real guns later, the film bureau will not
Come out and pull the side frame.
As long as no one is biased, there is no reason why Deep Space will lose to Forbidden City Pictures.
Of course, if it wasn't for the last step, Jimmy wouldn't want to have a head-on conflict with Forbidden City Pictures.
Harmony brings wealth, these four words are one of Jimmy's life creeds.
After talking about the plan, Jimmy smiled and talked about this year's deep space annual meeting, "You have to be prepared, your office will definitely not be able to accommodate so many guests by then."
"The auditorium has been prepared for a long time. Old Wu is more excited than me about this annual meeting. He arranged the auditorium himself."
"Of course Principal Wu is happy that so many celebrities have come to his school. He goes back to take a few photos and find two more... No, he doesn't have to look for it himself. Those media reporters will come over after smelling the smell. Waiting for those reporters to promote it
For publicity, Jin Yi is going to be in the limelight again." Jimmy laughed.
Yu Dong nodded and was about to continue chatting when Wu Changxin suddenly appeared at the door of his office and knocked on the door.
"Jimmy is here?" Wu Changxin came over very enthusiastically and shook hands with Jimmy.
Jimmy also responded enthusiastically, "Cao Cao is here. Principal Wu, Yu Dong and I were just talking about you."
"Oh? What are you talking about?" Wu Changxin asked curiously.
"You are said to be a warm-hearted person. Knowing that there will be many guests in Yudong's area in the next few days, you also specially helped arrange a small auditorium for him to receive guests."
Wu Changxin smiled and waved his hands: "Yes, yes, hospitality is our fine tradition in China! Speaking of enthusiasm, Jimmy, you are really enthusiastic. For your company's annual meeting, just invite some partners, and you also asked me to do it
Well. Our school has inherited a lot of favors from your company, but it has not been able to help you much. How shameful."
"Principal Wu is serious, our company has been exporting outstanding talents to us by relying on Jinyi. If nothing else, Yu Dong and Yu Hua account for half of our deep space company."
"They are indeed excellent, but to say that they are exported from our school makes me even more ashamed..."
Listening to the two people talking polite words back and forth, Yu Dong couldn't stand it anymore. He coughed lightly and asked Wu Changxin: "Principal, do you have anything to do with me?"
Wu Changxin patted his forehead and said, "Well, I almost forgot about the business. The information for the performance major freshman exam has come out. Can you go and help me refer to it?"
"Now?"
"No, you are quite busy these days. I have organized a meeting for two or three hours on the afternoon of the 5th. Do you have time?" After saying that, Wu Changxin looked at Jimmy again, "Jimmy, are you there on the afternoon of the 5th?
Please take the time to help me. You are a professional and your opinions must be valuable."
Jimmy said modestly: "I'm not a professional. I haven't written a script in many years. And I don't know much about acting, so I won't go into it."
"I'm kidding. If you're not a professional, then there aren't many professionals in the world. If you have time on the afternoon of the 5th, you might as well come over and have a look. It's time to play."
Jimmy nodded: "Okay, let me take a look. If you have time, come over and take a look."
"Okay, okay." Wu Changxin nodded repeatedly and looked at Yu Dong, "What about you, are you free that day?"
"Yes." Yu Dong nodded.
In fact, during the previous exam, Wu Changxin suggested that Yu Dong be an examiner on site.
But the exam took too long, so Yu Dong didn't agree. He only went to see it for a while and then came back.
Now that the audio-visual materials and analysis materials from each examiner are out, Yu Dong can take some time to look at them.
Seeing Yu Dong's agreement, Wu Changxin nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's just say that, I will come to you at three o'clock in the afternoon on the 5th. There is nothing else to do. You can talk about business with Jimmy. Jimmy, I'll excuse you.
Come to Jinyi more often when you have time."
"Natural, natural."
After Wu Changxin left, Jimmy said with a smile: "This old Wu seems to be a little dependent on you. It seems that they are quite satisfied with the students you selected for him last year?"
"The qualifications of this group of students are indeed good. Of course, the main thing is that the teachers are serious and responsible, otherwise, no matter how good the students are, they will not be able to teach them."
Jimmy raised his eyebrows and joked: "The teacher you are talking about includes yourself?"
Yu Dong was not humble at all, "Of course."
Jimmy gave a thumbs up, "Yes, I'm getting thicker and thicker."

At this year’s Deep Space Annual Conference, Giuseppe was the first foreign guest to come to Jinling.
The Deep Space Annual Conference started on February 4th, and Giuseppe arrived at Aurous Hill on February 1st.
"I had to come a few days earlier because I was worried that if I came later, you wouldn't have time to talk to me."
The translator Giuseppe brought this time was still Rossi. Because the exchanges with China were increasing, he simply hired Rossi for a long time and worked as a translator for him full-time.
Every time Yu Dong sees Rossi and Giuseppe together, he always thinks they are brothers because their hairlines are so similar.
"Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry. Don't you want to celebrate the New Year in China? There will be plenty of time later."
Giuseppe smiled and shook his head, "Isn't it a little unkind to talk to you about work on such an important holiday?"
Yu Dong secretly cursed that talking about work on New Year's Day was not much better.
This time Giuseppe came here mainly to talk to him about the script of "Marilyn". Giuseppe told Yu Dong that after filming "The Pianist on the Sea", he returned to his hometown in Sicily and stayed in seclusion for more than a month.
At that time, I wrote the script and named it "Marilyn".
"I have translated the script into Chinese, but my level is not high. If there is anything wrong, please feel free to teach me, Teacher Yu," said Rossi.
"I'm kidding, I don't understand Italian either. How could I possibly spot the translation problem?"
Yu Dong probably flipped through the script of "Marilyn". The content is basically the same as that of later movies. There are some small details in the middle, but it has no impact.
"Last time you told me you had this idea, I knew you could definitely write it." Yu Dong patted the script and said to Giuseppe, "This is the script I have seen so far this year.
The best script ever."
Giuseppe laughed and said, "It's only been one month this year."
Yu Dong also laughed, "For you, this year has only been a month, but for me, there are only a few days left in this year. Giuseppe, I am not complimenting you, this script is indeed very well written.
Okay. I can even imagine how you would turn this excellent script into a movie."
Giuseppe shook his head: "This is just the beginning. There is still a lot of work to do later. I want to find the town of Casticutto in my heart, and I also want to find the heroine in my heart - Marilyn. I
I believe this job will not be very simple. Of course, the most important thing, and the first thing to be completed, is that I need to get the film and television adaptation rights of "Death of a Widow" from you."
Yu Dong smiled and said: "Hey, this can be considered a matter? I will make a call later and ask Yu Yi to talk to you. I believe there will be no problem."
Giuseppe nodded: "I know. In fact, I came to you not to ask you for the film and television adaptation rights, but purely to hear your opinion. If the script can be approved by the original author, I believe that the movie will be successful.
Half of it.”

On a plane from the United States to China, Spielberg and Doug Liman sat next to each other.
After takeoff, the plane gradually calmed down, and Doug Liman also wanted to chat. He looked at Spielberg and said with a smile: "Steven, this is your second time to attend the Deep Space Annual Conference. How do you feel?
?”
"It's nothing special. How about you, it's your first time participating?"
Doug Liman shook his head, "It doesn't seem to be anything special. I don't care about anything else. I just want to meet YU. I asked many people about their impressions of him and got many different answers. In your heart, he is
What kind of person is that?"
"In my heart." Spielberg mused: "First, he is very talented. This is undeniable. I have met many novelists and many screenwriters, but I have never seen a thinking person.
He is a person who is quick to divergence. Sometimes, he can come up with a good idea when we talk about anything."
"I completely believe this, many people say so. This is the first, what's next?"
"Second, he is a typical Chinese."
Doug Liman asked strangely: "How do you say this?"
Spielberg explained, "He is very traditional. Although he has many ideas, he is silent most of the time and does not express his opinions easily. He is also very humble. I have never seen him show arrogance. This
It is very difficult for a person like him to become so famous at such a young age. At the same time, he will not compromise easily and will not change things he has determined."
"The things he has determined will not be changed casually. Does this prove that he is very confident?" Doug Liman asked.
"That's true, but I think everyone has something they must do in their heart, and YU must have something like this in his heart. All the decisions he makes are to complete this thing."
After listening to Spielberg's words, Doug Liman was thoughtful. All he knew about YU came from other people's mouths, but the more he heard others describe YU, the more curious he became about YU.
Seeing that Doug Liman didn't speak, Spielberg thought he was nervous because he was about to meet YU, so he smiled and comforted him: "You don't have to think too much, he is a very easy person to get along with. Those two movies of yours"
Haven't you started to be scared yet? I just took this opportunity to talk to him more this time."
Doug Liman nodded: "I think so too, and I also want to talk to him about "Golden Dreams" because I really want to make this movie."
"If you want to talk about "Golden Dreams", then I suggest you wait until the two movies on hand are finished. If these two movies can be made well, he will naturally be willing to talk to you. If they are not made well, he will naturally be willing to talk to you.
, then there is no hope at all.”
Doug Liman bit his lip. He especially wanted to talk to Yu Dong about "Golden Dreams", but what Spielberg said made perfect sense.
After a while, he sighed, "His novels are always very special. After reading them, people want to make them into movies."
Spielberg glanced at Doug Liman, smiled and said no more. He and Doug Liman had the same feeling. YU's novels have such magic, making people want to take pictures as soon as they see them.
Become a movie, become a picture.
And gradually, YU has become a guarantee at the box office.
It seems that as long as a movie has something to do with YU, it will be a big hit at the box office.
When "Second World" broke the record, Spielberg could still tell himself with great confidence that he was the biggest contributor.
But as time went by, after "Resident Evil", "Two Smoking Barrels", and "Sniper Phone Booth" became successful one after another, he began to doubt whether he was too conceited. Perhaps, "Second World" could succeed, YU
Who deserves more credit?
Especially after the box office hit of "Sniper Phone Booth", people's evaluation of YU has risen to a higher level.
As long as YU participates in the plan, there is no loss, and there is always huge profit.
I won't talk about "Two Smoking Barrels". After all, YU was not directly involved, but "Sniper Phone Booth" earned more than 100 million at the box office at a cost of less than 10 million. With such a small gain, I don't know how many pairs became popular.
Eye.
For this reason, Spielber is very concerned about the two movies that YU has given to Doug Liman. If the cost of these two movies is not high and the director is not very famous, it can be successful. It is conceivable that there will be movies in the future.
