"Maybe he thought the rehearsal was going well, so he sent people back to rest." Jimmy guessed.
Yu Dong shook his head, not agreeing with Jimmy's guess, "Lao Mouzi will not be so easily satisfied in this regard. Since he said that the rehearsal will be until twelve o'clock, it will not end until at least twelve o'clock, and usually it will not end until twelve o'clock."
Under certain circumstances, it won't be finished until twelve o'clock, and it's normal for it to be delayed by an hour or two."
"The boss is right. In the past few days, their rehearsals have never ended before twelve o'clock. They rehearsed the night before last until two or three o'clock at night."
"How do you know he rehearses until two or three o'clock? Is it possible that you also work overtime until then?"
"That's not true. They told me the next day. Anyway, Director Zhang is a desperate man. Most people can't survive him."
Jimmy glanced at Yu Dong and said with a smile: "If everyone works as hard as Zhang Yimou, then our work will be easier to carry out. Readers say that a certain person is very productive, but they don't know that this person can write a book a week, but once
Just writing for a few weeks every year is a waste of efficiency."
Yu Dong ignored him and asked Yu Liang: "I heard you just mentioned "Flower and Grass Lovers", is it a TV series?"
"Well, it is a TV series that the company is currently preparing. The script is written by Li Hong. The style is relatively relaxed. The heroine is tentatively played by Qian Xiuyan."
"Qian Xiuyan, is she the little Korean girl who Yu Dong asked to sign before?" Jimmy asked.
"Yes, she has been practicing singing and dancing and honing her acting skills this year. The little girl has worked very hard. Although it has only been one year, her level has improved a lot. However, Li Hong and others feel that Qian Xiuyan is not suitable for roles that are too bitter.
TV series, so I wrote a relatively relaxed script specifically for her." Yuliang said.
"It's good to have some new attempts."
Since the release of "Love Song of Stars and Moons", domestic TV series of similar genres have come one after another, and the audience is still willing to pay for them.
However, the Deep Space Company is not willing to keep reaping this type of dividends, and they have been making some new attempts recently.
"Flower and Grass Lovers" is one of the attempts. The style of this TV series is relatively relaxed, and there is no plot of bitterness and hatred. The male protagonist is a second-generation rich man who is not stingy. He usually does not do serious things and only likes to eat, drink and have fun.
The male protagonist's grandfather feels that the male protagonist will never become a great person, and if he hands over the family property to him, he will definitely be ruined in the end.
But the male protagonist is an only son, so he can only inherit the family property.
Perhaps it is precisely because he is bound to inherit the family property that the male protagonist has no ambition and sense of crisis, and just waits to continue eating, drinking and having fun after inheriting the family property.
In order to train the male protagonist, Grandpa created the illusion that his family was bankrupt. Not only did he buy a TV station to broadcast news about their family's bankruptcy, but he also hired a bunch of people to pretend to be creditors and come to his home to collect debts.
The debt collectors were very ruthless and kidnapped the male protagonist directly. When they arrived at a mountain village in the countryside, the debt collectors "accidentally" let the male protagonist go.
After escaping, the male protagonist went to live in a family. Because he was penniless and afraid of being chased by his creditors, he worked in that family's house, and the female protagonist was the daughter of that family.
The following story is easy to guess. The male and female protagonists have been in love for a long time. In the end, the male protagonist changed himself in the process of living with the female protagonist. He is no longer a playboy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun.
At this time, he completed his training, inherited the family property, and lived happily with the heroine.
In fact, this is essentially a story about a wandering prince who meets Cinderella. Although it is not the most popular drama about terminal illness and car accident, this kind of routine is definitely loved by female audiences.
Yu Dong has not read the script, but he has heard about this TV series beforehand. The female lead is Qian Xiuyan, chosen by the company, while the male lead is chosen by Li Hong himself, who is also Yu Dong's student, Tong Dawei.
Tong Dawei is in the third grade this year and is also the monitor of their class. However, although he is the monitor, his development is a little slower than that of others in his class. In the past two and a half years, he has only taken on one play, and it was
That kind of supporting role with a supporting role, not many scenes.
However, this kid still has solid basic skills and his looks are not bad. He performed very well in the audition for "Flowers and Grass Lovers" and was selected by Li Hong.
Nowadays, when the company makes TV series, Yu Dong rarely interferes. This time, Li Hong originally wanted to give the script to Yu Dong for review, but Yu Dong refused.
On the one hand, Yu Dong didn't want to make himself too tired. If the screenwriters and directors of the company came to him every time to ask for advice, he would be exhausted. In addition, he also believed in Li Hong's level and thought they should be given some freedom.
room to play.
Deep Space Company has always produced high-quality products, but it does not mind trial and error, because only through trial and error can we often produce high-quality products.
"Have the advertisements for this TV series been recruited?" Yu Dong asked.
Yu Liang smiled and said, "Not yet, but Li Youcan, the vice president of Samsung's planning department, asked me before if there are any TV series recently that they would like to sponsor. There happens to be an advertisement for mobile phones in "Flowers and Grass Lovers". I plan to tell them later.
Let’s talk about it. They have increased their investment in mobile phone business in recent years and continue to open up the market. This film "Flower and Grass Lovers" also focuses on the Asian market, which is very suitable for them."
"If Colvin knew about this, he would probably have to find you." Jimmy said.
Colvin is the representative of Motorola and is now mainly responsible for business in Asia. In addition, Colvin handles all deep space-related business.
Deep Space Company cooperates closely with Motorola. In the past, films and TV series produced by Deep Space Company, as long as they involved mobile phones, were basically handed over to Motorola.
Yuliang rubbed his hands and said, "If Colvin wants to invest in advertising, it will cost real money. I can't just give them the advertising space unconditionally just because we have a good relationship. Don't worry, Mr. Ji,
I will let Colvin compete with Samsung, and whoever offers better conditions will give the advertising space for this TV series to them."
Neither Yu Dong nor Jimmy had any objections to the margin approach.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! They do not necessarily have to cooperate closely with Samsung, but at least they should give Motorola a sense of urgency. Maybe as the cooperation between the two parties increases in recent years,
More and more, and Motorola is now dominating the mobile phone market, they are becoming less and less interested in Deep Space.
Last time, Motorola promised to sponsor the Kiddie animated movie with a total of 30 million U.S. dollars. Something went wrong recently, and there were some objections within Motorola.
These opponents believe that Motorola has been able to develop to this stage entirely because Motorola's own brand is strong enough, and the things provided by Deep Space Company are just auxiliary.
Besides, they also gave Deep Space Company a lot of patent fees and service fees, so there is no need to keep paying endlessly. Thirty million US dollars, that's all cash, even for Motorola, it's not a small amount.
.
There is no airtight wall in the world, and some of the voices inside Motorola were heard by Jimmy and others.
In view of this, Deep Space naturally wants to express its stance to Motorola. Which of them needs whom more?
Compared with Motorola, Samsung's mobile phone business has just started and its overall strength is much lower. But because of this, Samsung, which is ready to develop its mobile phone business, is naturally willing to spend money on it and will definitely be able to offer higher terms.
Some people inside Motorola may think that their success is mainly based on themselves and has nothing to do with Deep Space. However, in the eyes of other manufacturers such as Samsung, Motorola's ability to remain at the top of the mountain for so long is inseparable from the help of Deep Space.
After a little research, you can see that the mobile phones released by Motorola in recent years are all related to the design of Deep Space Company. Not only the appearance, but also the operation method of the mobile phone are very different from before. It is more like getting the design of Deep Space Company.
Dial.
And whenever something is imitated by other mobile phone manufacturers, Motorola can always come up with some new tricks immediately. In recent years, it has relied on this rapid iterative update to greatly suppress its opponents.
Just imagine, other companies have finally imitated some of the appearance and functions of Motorola mobile phones. At that time, Motorola's previous generation mobile phones had almost been sold, and then they released mobile phones with updated functions and better operation. Who would be willing to buy mobile phones from other brands?
?
Because they are deeply aware of the importance of Deep Space Company, Samsung really wants to cooperate with Deep Space, so they are particularly active in investing in the World Electronic Gaming Competition this time, and the price will be higher than others when they open the door.
Although this sponsorship of the World Electronic Gaming Competition is to promote their screens, it is just an opportunity. They hope to use this opportunity to open up an opportunity to extend cooperation to the mobile phone business.
Facts have proved that Samsung's strategy is effective. At least now, Yiliang has begun to consider giving the advertising space of "Flower and Grass Lovers" to Samsung.
"It's up to you to take care of this matter. No matter what, try to maximize the interests of our company." Jimmy said.
Yu Dong glanced at Jimmy, curled his lips and smiled. If it had been before, Jimmy would have been full of energy when he heard this kind of thing. Even if he didn't roll up his sleeves and go into battle himself, he would still give him a good talk and give him an opportunity face to face.
But now, Jimmy simply gave an instruction and said nothing else.
The reason why Jimmy is like this, Yu Dong knows full well, is because Jimmy has been thinking about entering the mobile phone market recently. If Deep Space Company really builds Deep Space Electronics to operate the mobile phone business, it will be a rival to Motorola.
The two sides will suddenly change from a close cooperative relationship to a naked competitive relationship. Even if Deep Space wants to make peace and make money, Motorola will definitely not agree.
So it no longer matters to Jimmy who he can get more sponsorship money from. What he is thinking about now is how to resist Motorola's wave of "hate out of love" if his company enters the mobile phone market later.
Yu Dong did not continue chatting on his mobile phone, but smiled and said, "Speaking of sponsorship fees, I have to praise Lao Mouzi. This guy cost Samsung an extra million US dollars in sponsorship fees for just one opening ceremony."
Jimmy nodded and was very emotional, "At that time, they said that Zhang Yimou was going to hold the opening ceremony. I didn't agree with it in my heart. After all, the time was too tight. Don't let the opening ceremony not be completed by then and just add to the chaos. I didn't expect that it would happen.
It has such an effect. No matter how the opening ceremony ends, at least now he has helped us earn an extra million US dollars."
Yu Dong also didn't expect Samsung to increase sponsorship fees.
Considering that the time was relatively tight, Zhang Yimou changed his style when designing the opening ceremony and specifically excluded plans that required the collaboration of many people.
The preparation time required for an event is positively related to the number of people involved. The larger the number of people, the longer it takes. Especially for the opening ceremony, when the number of people doubles, the increase in preparation time is far more than
Double.
The opening ceremony designed by Zhang Yimou did not use many people. Most of it was done by machines. He planned to use dozens of screens to splice them into a large screen, and then use the controller to control multiple screens to complete many tasks.
Screen collaboration, playing a set of game scenes cut from the game.
At the end of the screen, borrowing is used to combine the game screen with reality, allowing the cos character actors to "jump" out of the screen and appear on the stage to perform.
Zhang Yimou came up with this idea because when he was chatting with Yu Dong, Yu Dong told him about the latest large-screen LCD splicing screen on the market.
After hearing Yu Dong talk about this thing, Zhang Yimou showed strong interest and used it in the design of the opening ceremony.
This opening ceremony was exactly what Samsung wanted. Their main purpose of sponsoring the World Electronic Gaming Competition this time was to promote their company's screens.
Promoting their screens through computer screens is naturally a good way, but if it can be designed like Zhang Yimou's, it will perfectly demonstrate the advantages of their company's screens.
The most important thing is that Zhang Yimou's plan has a characteristic, that is, it is big.
Yes, it is big, with dozens of screens spliced ​​together, the picture is very large, the shock is great, and the later publicity will be more gimmicks.
Therefore, without saying a word, Samsung added another one million US dollars in sponsorship fees and stated that all the equipment needed for the opening ceremony would be provided by their company, and their only request was to play the Samsung logo when the screen lights up.
, at least three seconds.
However, this request was rejected by Deep Space Company, because after the screen lights up, the first thing to light up is the logo screen of the World Electronic Game Competition, followed by Deep Space Company's animation.
If Samsung wants to appear on the big screen, it can only rank third.
In the end, Samsung compromised. They were willing to be ranked third, and they would not lose a cent of one million US dollars.
Dell originally wanted to get involved and expressed his willingness to pay 500,000, but was directly rejected by Deep Space Company. One or two of these things are fine, but if you do too many, the nature will change.
Besides, if more logos are broadcast, it will also take away the attention received by other logos, which cannot be compensated for by half a million US dollars.
