In the afternoon

Wei Hong finished the inspection of the Chengxi project.

He returned to the Hongsheng headquarters building without stopping and held an emergency meeting.

During this period, in addition to keeping an eye on the Chengxi project, he also put a lot of energy into the filming of the film and television crew.

The group now has a total of five movies, a TV series, and a singing variety show in preparation for filming, and 30 original songs will be released one after another.

This is related to whether Hongsheng can gain a foothold in the entertainment industry.

Wei Hong attaches great importance to this. More than a dozen middle and senior executives of the entertainment department came to this meeting, and there were also several directors who were filming in other places. At this moment, they also started a video conference and projected it on the big screen.

"Let's have a simple meeting!"

Wei Hong knocked on the table and raised his hand to signal the female secretary to distribute information to everyone.

"Everyone, the crew of the horror movie "Fengmen Town" is currently filming in Qingyang City, and the progress has reached 48%. It is expected that there will be 32 days to complete the filming and editing..."

"The crew of the criminal investigation movie "Black and White Dangerous City" is filming in Ningcheng, and the progress has reached 47%. There are 27 days to complete the filming..."

"The crew of the youth campus pure love movie "Youth Memory" is filming in Shanghai, and the progress has reached 53%. There are 29 days to complete the filming!"

The female secretary distributed materials.

While reporting the project progress of the entertainment department.

Now the various crews are distributed all over the world to shoot. With sufficient funds and the efforts of each team member, the project progress is very good, and the finished film is also of a very high standard.

Wei Hong is also very satisfied with this.

He is born with a photographic memory and an amazing memory!

He has already copied out all the scripts of the large number of movies, TV series, and songs that will emerge in the next ten years, and has filed them with the State Intellectual Property Office.

In other words, these priceless film and television works have all belonged to him.

Although plagiarism is somewhat shameful, it feels great!

Wei Hong doesn't need to use his brain at all, he just needs to follow the steps and let the major crews shoot them, and he can reap countless benefits. Just thinking about it makes people's scalp numb.

Of course!

Hongsheng Entertainment has not yet established a firm foothold in the entertainment industry, and there are no phenomenal actors to show off.

So it is not suitable to launch too dazzling works now. Wei Hong specially selected some scripts with low cost, easy to shoot, and bright spots, so that these crews under him can practice.

The scripts that will really be a big hit can still be brought out!

"Director Xu! What do you think of the works we are shooting now?" Wei Hong looked at Xu Linsheng on the big screen.

This guy is famous for his bad temper in the entertainment industry.

He has been banned by major film and television companies before.

But he is a man with real skills. Wei Hong specially asked him to come out to train new directors, and he doesn't care whether this person has a good temper. Now each crew is controlled by him as the chief director.

"Not bad!" Xu Linsheng rarely smiled and said affirmatively: "Now each crew's new executive directors are very good. They are very hardworking and have good comprehension. A little guidance will make great progress. Given time, they will definitely be able to take charge."

"In addition, the scripts you gave to me, Director Wei, are of very good quality. I don't need to worry too much. As long as I control the general direction of the shooting, several new directors can complete it very well."

"Since all our artists and actors are newcomers, everyone spends all their time on shooting. In addition, most of our movies are small-budget productions, so the shooting progress can be said to be very fast."

"If we work overtime recently, maybe we can still catch up with the summer release. Although we may not be able to shoot a real big hit, it is still possible for several movies to have a small hit."

Everyone smiled happily when they heard this.

This project put a lot of pressure on everyone. After all, it was the first time the group shot a movie. If something went wrong, they would definitely be held accountable. Naturally, everyone would be happy if they could have a small hit.

Wei Hong nodded with satisfaction and asked, "It's less than two months away from the summer season. Can we make it in time?"

"Under normal circumstances, the films of major production companies must be shot three months in advance and submitted to the review department for review. At the same time, they must contact the theaters to start scheduling the films, and then promote them."

"But these are all low-cost and unpopular films. We can find connections to speed up the review and start promoting them now. It should still be in time."

"But the only difficulty is the theaters. Our group doesn't seem to have any connections in this area. If we apply normally, it will take a long time and the scheduling rate will be very low!"

Xu Linsheng talked freely and gave a lot of suggestions.

Wei Hong frowned silently when he heard this.

Now it's only a few days away from the summer season.The schedule is very tight, so it is feasible to spend money on publicity and promotion in advance.

It should be possible to complete the review by finding connections, but it is really difficult to negotiate with the theaters.

After all, the major theaters are controlled by different groups.

If there is no long-term cooperative relationship, why would they let you jump the queue?

You want to schedule the film, right? Just wait!

"I will find a way to review and theaters!" Wei Hong glanced around and asked, "Do you have any suggestions for the promotion of new movies?"

"Director Wei!" A middle-aged female vice president coughed lightly and said, "We plan to let Pei Yanyu and Ji Wan launch new songs, using several movie theme songs or soundtracks as gimmicks to arouse the curiosity of netizens."

"At the same time, the "Tomorrow's Star Singer Contest" is being prepared, and singers from our group will be introduced one after another. When the popularity of the program is hyped up, we can use new people and new songs to drive traffic to the movie."

After that, the other party quickly presented a promotion plan!

Wei Hong carefully looked through it, and finally nodded and said: "The plan is good, but these promotions alone are not enough. Advertising on various websites, promotion by big Vs and marketing accounts are also necessary. Make a targeted promotion plan for all the movies!"

"I understand!" The middle-aged female vice president pushed her glasses and quickly gave professional advice: "Now the major film and television promotion companies undertake business, and the promotion costs range from several million to 100 million or 200 million. We don't need to set up too big a stall at the beginning. I suggest that the promotion cost of each movie can be set at around 20 to 30 million."

"Too little!" Wei Hong shook his head and decided on the spot: "Spend 50 to 60 million on each movie for promotion, and require coverage of the first, second and third-tier cities across the country, as well as all online platforms. Try to create momentum and don't be stingy with the money!"

"I understand!"

The middle-aged female vice president nodded in agreement.

Everyone was secretly amazed again.

Spending so much on promotion at once, isn't this too rich?

Wow, it didn't cost much to make the movie, but it cost several hundred million to promote and distribute it. It seems that Wei Hong is not planning to make money, but to use this to make a name for himself.

"The pressure is a bit high. Director Wei is so generous. If we don't achieve the expected results, we will have to bear the consequences."

"Yes, the whole entertainment industry is watching now. If we spend so much money to make a bunch of bad movies and no audience buys them, won't we be laughed to death?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I hope I won't be so unlucky..."

The senior executives were all nervous in private.
