New Age Artists

Chapter 577 Special Research on Shen Santong

Killing it was just a joke.

It is impossible to eliminate them in the short term.

Even the officials don’t know how to do it, so Shen Santong is even less qualified.

Because of your correct stance?
If she really uses some tricks, she will only say "this" but her actions will be worse than those who curse their parents. Chunchun has become a reverse actress.

Neither a quick victory nor a quick defeat is desirable. There are no shortcuts and we still have to fight a protracted war.

Shen Santong also has his own persistence.

One cannot be bribed.

Let these people make money, that's the reward.

2. No personal threats.

In modern society, abiding by the law is the lowest common denominator.

Three non-fixed-point oppression.

Shen Santong can suppress some people at specific locations by holding a real-name event.

Just like hunting, losing the job is the least of the worries.

Continuous harassment can even make people suspicious and cause mental problems.

But by doing this, he is no different from some other people.

The short-term approach is to achieve a permanent solution and overnight success, which is still speculation, just like the inner thoughts of some people, except that the scripture has changed from "freedom scripture" to "supporting scripture".

Because long-term struggle is difficult and it is easy to get tired, there are also people in later generations who are unwilling to do things in a down-to-earth manner and just think about speculation, and they are just like pawns.

And even if one batch is eliminated, there will still be the next batch as long as money is spent outside.

On the contrary, it will promote the other party's iteration.

Shen Santong does not take short-term measures, he is not trying to eliminate anyone.

The final point is to do things, expand the company, develop the film industry, and gain economic benefits, not empty ones.

In 15, we established a preliminary cultural industry system and moved forward towards this goal in order to produce films of various genres, including mythology, history, reality, science fiction, etc.

Adhere to pragmatism and proceed from reality. After all, people living in reality also have to ignore one thing in order to complete another.

In order to achieve the set goals and unite all forces, those who are unable to unite and always cause trouble in the company will be eliminated.

As for things outside the company, they are not his responsibility.

He is not Jack Ma, who not only wants business but also other powers.

Do your own thing well, now it's just about filming.

Shen Santong concentrated on filming.

BJ.

"The situation is not optimistic. I am afraid we will have to fight a long-term battle with Shen Santong."

Commissioner Smith convened friends from the fields of culture, film, and public opinion at the University of East China to discuss countermeasures.

Good news: The Empire’s plan was largely successful.

Bad news: It was not completely successful, and Shen Santong emerged.

Commissioner Smith set up a filing cabinet specifically for Shen Santong.

The imperial headquarters also has a special group that organizes people to study Shen Santong.

There was a production system for Dongda films before the 1980s. Some of it remained in the 1980s, but it was basically gone by the 1990s.

We started all over again in the 94s, with market reforms in 02 and the cinema system in . In the same year, we made our first self-produced commercial blockbuster, "Hero".

At that time, film and television production relied entirely on a few big directors and the studio model.

When needed, people from certain fields are gathered together, and they disperse after the filming. There is no system or industry to speak of.

During this process, Empire played a certain role and paid great attention to cultivating some close people, whether they were Chinese in China or people within the University of Tokyo.

At that time, there were not many restrictions on Dongda Films and they were distributed as much as possible.

This is almost a consensus among Hollywood giants, and the business already has a set of mature operations.

Use market advantages to raise prey, and then harvest them when the other party becomes dependent on you.

Before 06, Dongda Film was purely a personal show of Zhang Yimou and a few other filmmakers. If these people failed to perform well, it would be a disaster.

When the time was ripe, the Empire closed in on its prey in 05, but didn’t do much, just cut off the market within the Empire’s sphere of influence.

In 06, these great directors collectively went insane, and the Tokyo film industry completely became a piece of cake for the empire.

However, it was also in 05 and 06 that a new generation of market directors emerged from the University of Tokyo.

Shen Santong was the first to call out "new generation".

At that time, neither Commissioner Smith nor the Empire realized the seriousness of the matter.

At most, I can say that the strategy of the functional departments of Southeast University has produced results, and the use of time buffer has some effect.

But it is just emerging at best, and it will still take time to explore production and narrative.

As long as the Dongda film market is liberalized, it can be destroyed in a snap.

Moreover, the empire has a huge advantage in narrative. As long as public opinion exerts pressure on these new directors, undermines their confidence in commercialization, and makes them want to prove themselves in art, there will be no major problem.

I never thought Shen Santong was unreasonable.

I don't care about the narrative of art films at all and I'm too stubborn.

But don't panic, it's just a small accident.

Shen Santong is training a new director, so we should find a way to bring him over, or at least get him away from Shen Santong's subordinates.

As it turns out, there is only one Shen Santong.

Ning Hao was very normal. After breaking away from Shen Santong, he quickly got into this narrative and made "No Man's Land", from which he has not yet come out.

As expected, an accident happened again.

Shen Santong was unaffected, his heart as hard as stone, and he continued to move forward.

It has risen at an unprecedented rate, snatching commercial films from Hong Kong Island, taking costume films from the older generation, and reshaping them into its own historical blockbusters.

No longer following the studio or small workshop model of the past, Shen Santong has built a system around himself.

Initially, this model was designed to satisfy Shen Santong's requirement to film two plays a year, and someone would produce them later.

It was also because of the two dramas a year that he worked at full capacity to improve the entire production process on his own, and the expansion was like a snowball.

The transition from the old to the new was completed quickly, in just a few years.

The whole process was incredibly fast. The accumulation of the empire in the 00s and s, as well as other operations after the s, just cleared the way for Shen Santong.

The older generation of directors has been fooled and no one is standing in the way of the new king.

The market was completely empty, and Shen Santong only needed to take up his gun and go into battle.

The foreplay is already done.

Commissioner Smith felt very complicated.

When Editor-in-Chief Hu saw that the commissioner was unhappy, he immediately comforted him, "Shen Santong does not represent us. This is just a temporary difficulty. We can work together to find a way to solve it."

"Yes, yes, Commissioner, stop looking so sad and come have a drink."

"Shen Santong becomes arrogant when he succeeds. In fact, there is no need to do anything. He will be ruined in a few years."

Someone from the film industry even presented facts: "Yes, Commissioner, there are a lot of people who hate him. He wants a 50% share of the box office, but now his company is making money and the theaters hate him. If he fails once, he won't be able to get back on his feet."

Commissioner Smith's hands were trembling slightly. With tremendous willpower, he picked up the coffee on the table, resisted the urge to spray it in their faces, and took a sip painfully.

Bitter!

If he didn't know that these people were not undercover, he would really think that they were undercover.

You can’t curse yet.

They are all respectable people with status and positions.

People like Editor-in-Chief Hu are quite wealthy.

It was probably during the reform of the real estate market in Dongda in 02 that this old man got on board and now owns at least two houses.

With the economic development of the University of Tokyo, these people cannot be bought off with benefits.

Not only does the funding have to be spent, Commissioner Smith himself also has to spend money.

All I could take out was about one or two thousand dollars.

It is no longer like ten or twenty years ago, when a little investment could buy the equivalent of a house in a capital city.

Now it all depends on the existing impression.

Commissioner Smith was so angry that he could only speak in a nice way: "Everyone, I don't think it's realistic to expect Shen Santong to fall on his own."

"Many of our plans seem to have hit the air. We have to think of other ways."

During the Spring Festival period in February, both of Santong Entertainment's dramas were launched with great efforts.

There are also people in the industry cooperating.

But it didn't work.

"Lost on Journey" is the third film in the series. The first two films are all historical films, setting various records and having a huge audience. It is difficult to kill it with public opinion. Therefore, the focus of public opinion is on the drama about Zhuge Liang.

Because Shen Santong proved that he really had a plan in mind.

Just follow this plan.

Shen Santong did not hide it, and Commissioner Smith studied it.

I feel heavy in my heart.

Santong Entertainment draws nourishment from the reality of Dongda University and is based on the market.

Don't make movies that contain elements of tearing, quarreling, darkness, and revelation.

Just to please the audience.

Shen Santong kept repeating that one should not "doubt oneself, hate oneself, hurt oneself, or commit suicide," but should "be confident, self-reliant, self-respecting, and self-loving."

Commissioner Smith has memorized it.
The specific steps are also clearly stated.

Country, history, mythology, images of industrialization, the sea of ​​stars series, down-to-earth series.
"Zhuge Liang" is an important attempt in the historical series.

If successful, it will be able to continue the reputation of "Red Cliff" and "Cao Cao", the historical sub-category of the Three Kingdoms period will be completely mature, and the historical blockbuster plan will be initially completed.

Moreover, successfully portraying a heroic positive character can also be used in other series.

Commissioner Smith’s understanding is what Iron Man is to Marvel.

Definitely focus on sniping.

As a result, Shen Santong blasted Yi Zhongtian, and all the heat was focused on this, and then hit the air.

Commissioner Smith was extremely anxious.

It is true that the funding has increased, but the work has become too difficult.

I can't just sit there and watch Shen Santong succeed step by step.

The influence of the movie is so huge!
The blessing Shen Santong received through the movie was too great, and the "Shark Fin" brand was smashed to pieces with one punch.

Not creating division is a heinous crime in itself, not to mention that Shen Santong not only wants to tell the East’s big narrative, but also to tell the story of foreign countries.

The fourth part of "Lost in Journey" is an overseas chapter, turning to local stories. Both "Lost in Thailand" and "Inception" have Siam as their background.

This forced the empire to increase its investment to offset the impact of Shen San Tong's films in Siam.

The new play is set in the empire, with filming locations in multiple countries and using Russian actors.

Shen Santong’s rise in Southeast University was terrifying enough, and it turned public opinion upside down.

If we really move overseas step by step, the consequences will be disastrous!
Editor-in-Chief Hu saw the specialist frowning, and thought of a way: "Why not hype up Shen Santong? I see his company invested in Guo Jingming's play, so it won't be difficult to make him lose his reputation."

"Tell me about it." Commissioner Smith became interested. Only people from the University of Eastern University could deal with the people from the University of Eastern University.

Doing the right thing may not work, but using some dirty tricks will definitely work.

Editor-in-Chief Hu has his own magnanimity and said pertinently: "I am also doing this for Xiao Shen's improvement."

"Yes, yes." Others secretly complained in their hearts that he was quite skilled at setting up memorial archways.

Old Hu then said: "In the hearts of some movie fans, Shen Santong has done a great job in his career. He has defended the so-called cultural position and produced high-quality content that the audience loves to watch."

"His status is very, very high in the hearts of movie fans. It's definitely an exaggeration to call him the entertainment emperor, but in the hearts of some people, he is indeed the number one in the film industry."

Upon hearing this, the thin and dark-looking professor from the film industry was shocked.

He cursed, "Him? The best in the movie industry! Damn it, he doesn't deserve it!"

"No artistic achievement at all! Did he win any of the three major awards? Did he win any at the Hong Kong Film Awards? Did he not even get an Oscar nomination? He didn't win any at any of the international A-level film festivals, and he only won the Huabiao Awards twice."

Old Hu choked and said unhappily, "How about you tell me?"

Now he is extraordinary, he has a level, and it is not low.

This person is the dean, but he is only in the school, and it is difficult to switch to administration.

Commissioner Smith quickly appeased: "Let Old Hu talk."

After waiting for the interrupter to apologize, Lao Hu continued, "Where was I?"

"What's the first person in the movie?"

"It's not what I said, I'm talking about the current facts." Old Hu still admitted the fact: "They think Shen Santong is the purple gold beam that spans the sea and the white jade pillar that supports the sky in terms of culture, and they respect him very much."

"Hmph!" A cultural scholar snorted coldly, but did not interrupt.

Lao Hu ignored him and continued, "You can go and see his fans. Some of them are very loyal."

"He used that Yang Mi in The Thieves, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction."

"What are you talking about? This girl is a popular young actress who played in a Qing Dynasty drama. And it was revealed that she took other jobs and was overlapping with other roles. She is not worthy at all."

"Even Chen Kun, who is not from Shen Santong's own company, has some people expressing dissatisfaction."

"They said Chen Kun was too close to Hong Kong and Taiwan, and some said his company's boss was attached to him and couldn't get rid of him."

Some people were disdainful: "A group of believers, brainwashed."

Lao Hu is very unhappy. Why do you always interrupt?

Commissioner Smith quickly said, "Let Lao Hu speak. Everyone listen first. If you have any ideas, we can discuss them after Lao Hu finishes speaking."

Lao Hu said slowly, "You can brag about him, but don't brag about how powerful he is. He clearly won't accept the challenge."

"Don't smear his private life anymore, and don't say he's greedy for money."

"This is not a shortcoming. We officials are afraid that he is full of ideology. When the recording was released, it actually made people feel more at ease about him."

Lao Hu really understands.

My channels in all aspects are much better than some people.

I accidentally revealed a piece of information.

When the shark fin controversy broke out, a voice recording of Shen Santong's conversation with someone was released. After some deletions, it showed that if he was given enough benefits, he would also take pictures of what he liked outside.

It caused quite a stir at the time, and some people thought it was a good idea to confuse the public.

But when "The Shallows" was released, this little flaw was nothing and was completely washed away.

But Lao Hu knew that this recording made some leaders who had concerns about Shen Santong completely put their minds at ease.

It seems to be suppression, but the actual effect is assisting.

If Shen Santong was really a person with his head full of various positions, things would not be going smoothly for him today.

Some people are very cautious about being unrealistic.

Positions can change easily, but they cannot withstand the test.

After hearing this, Commissioner Smith was quite annoyed.

I was in a hurry to throw the recording out there without thinking too much, and ended up shooting myself in the foot.

At the same time, his eyes lit up. This kind of subtle point can only be understood by people who truly understand it. Old Hu is indeed capable of it.

After he finished speaking, someone was extremely jealous: "I don't know how many times Shen Santong slept. I think that Yang Mi got promoted through unspoken rules. Shen Santong played more than Zuo Shandiao."

Lao Hu laughed and said, "His fans are just so anxious. They praise him and stir up some dirt on Guo Jingming."

"For fans of Shen Santong, they shouldn't support Guo Jingming."

"What kind of book is Guo Jingming writing? It's youth literature, not worthy of the great director Shen Santong."

"There are also some movie fans who say that after watching Shen Santong's movies, they can no longer watch movies directed by other directors. This kind of voice is worth amplifying."

"There are many tricks used in the film and television industry now, but most people have mixed feelings and cannot say that they reject Shen Santong."

"Because of his success, the market has also prospered and a lot of money has poured in."

"But if Shen Santong becomes a disruptor of the film market, everyone will reject him."

An editor felt a chill in his heart.

I finally understand why Lao Hu can be the editor-in-chief. He is so sinister.

"Yin, it's still you, Old Hu, who is yin." There was an art celebrity who had no vested interest in the matter and acted yin and yang on the spot.

Lao Hu got angry all of a sudden: "Does anyone have any ideas? If it's not the same rough methods as before, what's the point?"

He did not forget to make amends for himself: "I am also helping Shen Santong to recover as soon as possible. Don't look at the flowers and flowers in his life now, in fact, they are all hidden dangers. The sooner he falls, the sooner he will recover."

Commissioner Smith has made great progress, but there were indeed problems with the previous strategy.

In addition to the flattery just now, Commissioner Smith learned many other tactics.

It just so happens that "Tiny Times" is also one of the nodes.

Santong Entertainment has a “Sansan” director plan.

Professionals, those transitioning to the entertainment industry, and laymen, try to maintain the proportion.

Among the professional schools, Jiang Wei’s "The Sound of Wind" became popular, Wang Ran also became popular, and Guo Fan can be considered half a professional school. This group is the largest.

The entertainment industry has transformed, with Chen Sicheng co-directing and Xu Zheng also directing "Lost on Journey 4", which can be considered an initial success.

Among the laymen, Guo Jingming is the first one.

If "Tiny Times" is successful, the "Three Threes" director plan will be initially completed.

Must snipe!
