Disaster Artist - Chapter 1003 test version

Wecher's real thoughts:

I've spent two hours visiting your studio, I think it's so perfect, it's a dream place, bringing all the wildest and best dreams in the director's mind into reality, I really admire and Wow, can't believe you actually accomplished such a feat.

Now I'm finally aware of my arrogance and prejudice and I'm finally aware of my misjudgment and I can't wait to sit down with you and have a deep conversation and have a good talk about echoes and talk about filmmaking and let's see things Is it possible to collide with sparks.

Business, my film project is business, because I have rekindled hope that maybe, the Echo can really change the status quo of the film industry.

As mentioned above, the turbulent thoughts are surging in my mind, a little bit of excitement, a little bit of excitement, a little bit of blood, this feeling is really long gone.

but!

In the end, it turned into words. What did Wei Che say?

"I'm not here to visit, let's talk business."

stiff. rigid.

Even a little harsh.

Even Wei Che himself couldn't believe it, he actually said that.

If Lanchuan holds a "kill the conversation master" contest, he has the confidence to enter the top three championship battles, and has a good chance of winning.

But how should the situation be salvaged?

Weiss didn't know either.

Lu Qian didn't seem to be angry, he paused slightly, and then showed a smile.

"Too."

"Director Wei Che should have been waiting for a long time. The time we agreed on has long passed. This is my mistake, 100%, there is no excuse."

"Then let's find a place to sit down and talk about business."

Calm and sincere.

Generous.

Lu Qian took the fault entirely on himself, without quibbles or excuses—

Even if Wei Che knew, Lu Qian was actually busy with post-production just now.

They are all directors, and they don’t know much about post-production. Once they get busy, they don’t pay attention to the passage of time at all. They don’t notice the day and night at all. Even the meal time is often upside down, and the food that is randomly stuffed into the mouth is not enough. Know what you are eating.

However, Lu Qian did not.

Everyone said that Lu Qian was arrogant and arrogant, but when he really came into contact with him, he didn't have the arrogance and arrogance of a director who was arrogant and arrogant.

But…

If it is not at all, then the calmness and composure shown by Lu Qian in front of him can deeply feel the self-confidence from the inside out.

Pride and modesty, two seemingly contradictory qualities, were mixed in Lu Qian, which made Wei Che look at Lu Qian more.

Lu Qian noticed Wei Che's sight, but he didn't dodge, and took the initiative to greet him.

Upright.

"Director Wei Che, please come with me."

Lu Qian made a guiding action, and stepped aside, inviting Wei Che to go first.

Wei Che inexplicably remembered Jiang Chenghai's expression. Compared with his words, the affirmation conveyed by Jiang Chenghai's eyes and expressions became particularly clear.

Think about it.

Wei Che said, "No, just here. I think it's pretty good here."

Wei Che gestured for the creative space in front of him, and without waiting for Lu Qian's response, he walked straight ahead and sat down at Lu Qian's place just now.

Lu Qian was stunned for a moment, and a smile appeared in his eyes, and then he followed into the courtyard and sat down opposite Wei Che.

In fact, this is the first official meeting between Wei Che and Lu Qian, but Wei Che's prejudices and stereotypes have been broken, and his thoughts have also changed.

Therefore, as soon as he came up, Wei Che went directly to the theme, without politeness or greetings, just like Wei Che's style.

"Lu Qian... Director."

There was a pause between Wei Che's words. It seemed a little strange for Lu Qian, who was much younger and younger than him, to call him "director".

"I wanted to ask, what if I'm working on a project with the Echo, and I don't want to be on the Echo platform, but directly on the big screen?"

"Is this possible?"

Rather than getting straight to the point, going straight to the point should be a more appropriate description, because Wei Che's words are as sharp as a blade.

Lu Qian didn't go around, "Yes."

Although Wei Che had expected Lu Qian's answer, but it was so straightforward and direct without any hesitation, Wei Che was still surprised, "Are you sure?"

Lu Qian laughed.

Wei Che didn't think it was funny, "If it can, isn't it hurting the interests of the Echo? Are you sure it doesn't matter?"

"Or, are you just deceiving me?"

"I must stress that if the movie hits the big screen, I hope it can meet a cycle, rather than briefly showing on two big screens in Lanchuan for a week, and then pretending to fulfill the contract, I understand the twists and turns inside, These hidden terms were never considered for the film itself."

Profit, profit, profit, all for profit.

Objectively speaking, the cooperation between Wei Che and Zhu Zhai is really pleasant. After all, they only cooperated in dramas before; but Wei Che also understands those traps.

In Wei Che's own opinion, the relationship between him and the house is also a business partnership. It can't be said to be pleasant or bad, everyone just gets what they need.

But this time is different. If Wei Che really cooperates with Echo, he wants to emphasize his position. The important thing is that he needs to protect his own interests.

Lu Qian still had a smile on his mouth, and those smiles sparsely settled in his eyes.

"Director Wei Che, Echo's attitude towards movies may be slightly different."

"Indeed, Echo is a streaming media platform. We have our own interests to maintain. Otherwise, if the platform keeps losing money, it will not be able to operate."

"However, the Echo has a system of its own."

"For a movie, we will give different distribution plans based on the opinions of the production team and the judgment of our team."

"For example, go through a full theatrical release cycle, twenty-two weeks, and then go on an echo."

"For example, go through a 50 percent theatrical release cycle, and then go on an echo."

"For example, the cinema and the Echo will be released at the same time, and the audience can choose how to watch it."

"For example, just show on Echo ~www.novelbuddy.com~ but give relevant viewing advice."

"For example, show it in theaters for two weeks, and then go straight to Echo."

"That sort of thing."

There is no doubt that this is a brand new distribution system that challenges the existing distribution system. Even Lu Qian and Echo are crossing the river by feeling the stones, and they need to explore slowly.

It is certain that in the process of exploration, there will inevitably be some failures and setbacks, but Lu Qian's attitude is very firm. This is the way for theaters and streaming media to coexist. In the face of the tide of the times, they need to take risks and challenges. Only in this way , can open up new and different possibilities.

Otherwise, the decline of the theater line is a doomed ending.

Of course, some will say that this is a futile attempt; some will say that it is better to embrace streaming, there is no need to save the withered theater chain in life.

But Lu Qian doesn't think so. No attempt is futile. Even if the outcome may not be as expected, any attempt is an exploration of life.

Not in vain, nor in vain.
