Superstars Start with Krypton Gold

"Dean Zhou, do you really allow me to make requests?"

Li Zian looked at Zhou Guochuan expectantly.

"You can make any request." Zhou Guochuan paused, then smiled and said: "But you kid, don't be too greedy, if you ask the school to invest 100 million yuan to make a movie for you, the school will definitely not agree. "

"Dean, don't worry, I don't want money."

Li Zian said in a sincere tone.

When Zhou Guochuan heard this, he suddenly laughed dumbly and said: "Forget, you are not short of money. A while ago, "Perfect Strangers" made nearly 200 million yuan, which is richer than our academy."

Li Zian chuckled, and then he gradually restrained his smile, and began to think seriously with his head down.

Although Zhou Guochuan was talking about Ren's request, if Li Zi'an really made the request, it would be really stupid.

Huaxia University of the Arts is affiliated to the Ministry of Education, its principal and deputy minister have the same status, and the deans of the seven colleges are also treated as standard halls.

It is definitely not appropriate to ask for money, even if the school is willing to give it, it will not give much, and Li Zian is not short of money.

The strongest point of Huaxia Art University lies in its strong official power and strong personal connections. It has been established for nearly a hundred years and covers a wide range of fields, and this aspect is precisely what Li Zian lacks most now.

Li Zian is now developing well in music, and his room for improvement is also broad, but in terms of film and television, Li Zian has indeed encountered a bottleneck.

This bottleneck is how to get his movies released in theaters!

For a normal movie, the producers behind it are basically senior people in the industry or larger entertainment companies. Finally, they can guarantee that their films can be shown in theaters across the country and even overseas.

And Li Zian has made his debut for a year now, and he is independent. Film production has always been self-directed and self-marketed. Even though the film is quite high-quality, it has nothing to do with theaters and distributors. In today's fierce film market Under such circumstances, it can be said that it is quite difficult to show movies in theaters.

What's more, if the movie is to be shown in theaters across the country, it must go through the review of the government. Officially, Li Zian and others can be said to be completely blind. Tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of funds are lost to radio and television card owners. Although they can be transferred to the webcast at that time, the income will definitely be much smaller.

If we compare the movie market to a battlefield, then the theater movie market is the main battlefield where the most fierce fighting takes place, while the online movie market is the rear of the recruit camp fighting, and the levels of the two sides are essentially different.

If you want to make a name for yourself in the film and television industry, you still have to see the truth in theaters after all.

During this period of time, Han Qian and the others have been expanding their relationship in this area, but interpersonal relationships cannot be achieved overnight, so several months have passed, and Han Qian and the others have had little effect.

Seeing Li Zian bowing his head and thinking seriously, Zhou Guochuan was not in a hurry, but had a look of appreciation in his eyes.

There is no doubt that for Li Zian, this is an opportunity.

Everyone will have opportunities, large or small, in his life, but not everyone can grasp such opportunities. Some people miss them, and some people grasp them. The difficulty of their lives is completely different.

Li Zian thought about it for about five minutes, then raised his head again, looked into Zhou Guochuan's eyes, and said seriously: "I hope that the school will start from my participation in the exchange student competition to the end of the one-year exchange student. The films I own can get the support of the school, make these films enter the theaters, and solve the obstacles of the distributors, theaters and officials for me!"

Li Zian estimated just now that according to normal development, he will have to work hard for at least two more years before he can let his film enter the theaters. If the school can agree to his request, then he can directly let his film next year. Movies go to theaters.

At the same time, during the exchange student period, even if he is in a foreign country, he can still make movies and then show them in domestic theaters, and during the foreign country, he can also take advantage of the convenience of foreign film and television bases, which can be said to serve multiple purposes. During this period, he can get huge benefits.

Calculated according to his lowest efficiency, in nearly a year and a half, he can at least complete two movies, and two movies are the background. Li Zian believes that Han Qian and others will definitely establish their own network of contacts.

At the same time, if the box office of these two films is good, the domestic theaters will see the benefits. In the future, even without the help of the school, they will take the initiative to find Li Zian's film. After all, there is no businessman who has money.

The abacus in Li Zian's heart was pounding, and after he put forward his request, Zhou Guochuan's eyes became more appreciative.

"Your condition is not too much. It is the school's job to help students grow rapidly, and the school has a high possibility of passing it." Zhou Guochuan paused for a while, and then his tone suddenly changed: "But the school is not a one-way house. If your treatment Being spread out will definitely cause dissatisfaction among some students, so we have to add a test to the condition you mentioned."

"What test?"

Li Zian raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

"It's very simple. Winning the first place in this competition for exchange students will not only suppress the voices of dissatisfaction, but we can also learn from our reputation and recommend the films you participated in the competition for exchange students to the theaters, so that you movies are shown in theaters.”

Hearing this, Li Zian nodded slightly. This test is not too much, but it is not easy either.

"What if I fail?"

"If you fail, you will be treated the same as all normal students."

Zhou Guochuan said calmly.

Li Zian pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Dean Zhou, can our college's evaluation of the competition for exchange students be fair and just?"

When Zhou Guochuan heard this, his face suddenly showed a little displeasure: "Student Li, I am in charge of the evaluation of the exchange student competition. Do you think I will deliberately favor other students and target you?"

"Every year, all the film and television works that participate in the competition will be released after the final selection. Except for those films that will be used for commercial operations, the rest of the films that will not participate in commercial operations will be made public. Our academy's competitions are not only fair and just, but also open. If you doubt The fairness of the game, then you are questioning my character, old man!"

Hearing Zhou Guochuan's displeasure, Li Zi'an coughed lightly, and smiled apologetically, "I can trust Dean Zhou's character. I was really scared by all kinds of shady scenes a few years ago, so I'm a little too much." Be cautious, Dean Zhou, please forgive me."

Zhou Guochuan snorted softly, but didn't say anything else. After all, he was also clear about Li Zian's early experiences.

"Student Xiao Li, the conditions have been negotiated, and the test has been clarified. Whether you will participate in this exchange student competition or not, let's be a little man, give me a good word!"

"Participate, our school can give such great benefits, fools don't participate!"

"You kid is quite confident. You haven't competed in the competition yet. So you are so sure that you can get the first place? Can you get benefits?"

"Hey, I still have this bit of confidence."

Hearing this, Zhou Guochuan stopped keeping a straight face, and immediately showed a smile.

"Since it's decided, then you can sign up!"

"Ah?" Li Zian was stunned for a moment: "Dean Zhou, why don't you ask the school for instructions? What if the school doesn't agree to my conditions?"

"As for your stupid request, why do you still need to ask the school? I have worked in China Film City for 30 years. If I don't even have the ability to let your movie be shown in theaters, I might as well die, old man!" Zhou Guochuan laughed and cursed.

Li Zian was dumbfounded.

He thought his request was too much, but he didn't expect that in Zhou Guochuan's eyes, it was just a one-sentence matter, so the co-author of the assessment just now was also Zhou Guochuan's intentional test for him?

Lost, lost...

Li Zian felt a little heartbroken.

This old man looks kind, but he is actually very cunning!

"Dean Zhou, I'm going to sign up..."

Li Zi'an said with a little downcast.

"Don't pretend to be pitiful. If you perform well in the past year and a half, you can enjoy this treatment for your first movie after you return to China. I'm not a stingy old man!" Zhou Guochuan laughed.

Hearing the words, Li Zian immediately regained his energy, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Dean Zhou!"

"go quickly!"

Zhou Guochuan pretended to look disgusted, and waved at Li Zian.

Li Zian didn't say anything more, he walked out of the dean's office quickly, his footsteps were a little wandering.

Although his request is not difficult for the school, but for him, it is the most helpful at the moment.

Therefore, Li Zian is very content.

Looking at Li Zian's back, Zhou Guochuan shook his head with a smile, and went back to his desk to continue writing...
