Chapter 915

Brilliant Entertainment Company, President's Office.

"Boss Tan, the PR department's documents."

"Give it to me." While there were no documents, Tan Yue stood by the window to rest for a while. When he heard Chen Ye's voice, he turned around and took the documents and went back to the computer to process them.

A tall tree attracts the wind.

The strength of Brilliant Entertainment Company gradually surpassed the two old first-class entertainment companies. Naturally, there were many people who were dissatisfied. The competition in the entertainment industry was fierce, and it was normal to play tricks behind the scenes. From time to time, some black material appeared on the Internet.

As long as it was entertainment news related to Brilliant Entertainment Company, it could rush to Weibo hot search in a very short time and become the subject of hot discussion among netizens.

In a month, the PR department had to deal with one related news every day on average.

With the development of the Internet, there was no cost for making rumors. As long as a so-called "big melon" could be posted online and a line of words could be typed on the keyboard, a lot of attention and traffic could be obtained, causing many public figures to either refute the rumors or on the way to refute them.

Anyway, there was only this much in the entertainment industry. If it was true, it might be a big profit.

However, the PR department of Brilliant Entertainment will not tolerate these rumor-mongers. Any false news without factual basis will be directly resolved through legal channels.

Tan Yue will not be lenient about this. This kind of thing must be punished as a warning to others. If it is left alone, it will only increase, which will have a great impact on the image of the artist and the company.

Several of them have already collected materials and started to sue.

Tan Yue saw a reminder of a new email in the lower right corner of the computer. The sender was Zheng Tong. He thought it should be the plan, stopped his work, and opened the document on the computer.

He was not particularly surprised that the plan came out so quickly. After all, Zheng Tong is already a veteran in this regard.

"Knock, knock, knock."

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Zheng Tong pushed the door open and came in: "Mr. Tan, the plan has been sent to your mailbox. Can you see if there is anything that needs to be modified?"

"Please sit here and wait for a while. I'm watching it." Tan Yue retracted his gaze and continued to look at the plan.

Zheng Tong sat opposite and waited quietly.

No matter how things change, the preparations for each movie are similar, and the process is basically the same. As long as the details are not missed, there will be no problem with the content of the plan.

Tan Yue carefully looked at every word on it. From the preparation of props to the selection of shooting locations, everything was extremely detailed and there was no need to modify it.

More than ten minutes later, Tan Yue nodded with satisfaction and said, "No problem, just follow the plan above."

Zheng Tong was also very happy that the plan could be passed in one go. This was a kind of satisfaction with his work.

"I'll go to prepare now." Zheng Tong stood up.

Tan Yue reminded: "Don't rush too much in time, and make sure to do the preparations well."

Zheng Tong said "OK" and left in a hurry.

Although Tan Yue did not have a hard requirement on time, he also wanted to complete this task as soon as possible, of course, on the premise of ensuring quality.

Tan Yue drank a sip of water and lowered his head to continue reading the documents in his hand.

In fact, after the Brilliant Entertainment Company adopted such a response method, there were fewer people spreading rumors online than before.

In such an environment, it is almost impossible to completely eliminate rumors and public opinion. What can be done is to minimize them as much as possible.

A week later.

Zheng Tong received a new script, which looked of good quality.

The new direction decided by the film department has been approved by the company's senior management, and the follow-up work has also begun.

Many scripts have been bought in the past two or three days, and the ones that can be handed to Zheng Tong are all scripts that have been carefully screened by the supervisor and have no quality problems.

Zheng Tong was thinking about which director of the company would be suitable for this movie.

At this time, his thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Come in." Zheng Tong put the script aside and saw that the person who came in was Supervisor Liu.

"Director, the crew of "Forrest Gump" is ready." Supervisor Liu looked excited.

The plan was written by Supervisor Liu, and Zheng Tong also handed over the preparation work to him.

"You are quite fast, is there any problem?"

Supervisor Liu patted his chest and said, "I have checked it repeatedly many times, and I guarantee that there is no problem at all."

This is the first time he is responsible for Tan Yue's new movie. Knowing the importance of the task, he dare not be negligent in the slightest.

Zheng Tong nodded and said, "As long as there are no problems, Mr. Tan doesn't like the filming progress to be delayed because the preparations are not ready."

He remembered the state when he was in charge of Tan Yue's new movie for the first time. He was similar to Manager Liu. While he was excited, he was also under great pressure.

"Just in case, I will go with you to check it again." Zheng Tong was still a little worried.

It's not that he doesn't trust Manager Liu, but the main reason is that this movie is too important and there can't be any mistakes.

The two of them took the plan to the logistics department and checked it carefully from beginning to end.

"Your preparations this time are very good." Zheng Tong said, "I will go to Mr. Tan to report the situation now."

"Okay." Manager Liu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and a nervous feeling came over him.

After all, it was Mr. Tan's movie. Such an opportunity is really rare. There were few such opportunities in the past.

Zheng Tong came to Tan Yue's office on the eighth floor of the President's Office and said, "Mr. Tan, the preparations for the Forrest Gump crew are complete."

Tan Yue stopped what he was doing and asked about some details of the preparations to make sure there were no problems.

He was very happy. "Forrest Gump" was a film prepared for the Paris Film Festival. Whether Bright Entertainment Company can expand its influence in the international entertainment industry depends on this film.

"Forrest Gump" is called an inspirational classic film by many, and it completely fits the theme of this Paris Film Festival. Tan Yue believes that it will achieve very good results.

"Before starting the production, arrange for the main creative staff to have a meal together." Tan Yue thought for a while and said: "Although most of them are from the company this time, many of them are working together for the first time. Let's have a meal together to get to know each other. "

Except for Ma Guoliang and Liu Qian, none of the actors who have roles in this movie have worked together much.

In the past, one of Tan Yue's purposes in making movies was to increase the reputation of Bright Entertainment Company, and when selecting actors, he would look for them in the entire entertainment industry.

Nowadays, there are countless people in the entertainment industry who want to appear in their own movies. The purpose is to attract a wave of traffic. It is better to give this opportunity to the company's artists.

Tan Yue also has another purpose, which is to use this opportunity to allow the company's artists to have more contact with Ma Guo and learn more.

"I'll take care of the dinner party." Zheng Tong asked, "When is the movie scheduled to start?"

Tan Yue said "hmm" and thought: "I'll call Mr. Wu over later and let's set a time."

The launch of a new movie is inseparable from publicity, and Wu Gong also needs to be present.

Besides, Mr. Wu can often give good suggestions.

Tan Yue picked up the internal phone, answered Chen Ye, and said, "Xiao Ye, go to the public relations department and ask Mr. Wu to come over."

After putting down the phone, the two chatted about the movie again.

Tan Yue asked: "Do you think if this movie is released abroad, will it be accepted by foreign audiences?"

Zheng Tong was slightly stunned at first. He thought this movie would only be released in the country. But since Mr. Tan asked this question, it means that "Forrest Gump" may be another movie released simultaneously around the world.

Zheng Tong quickly calmed down his excitement, thought carefully about the script he had read so many times, and replied: "The theme of this movie is inspiration. Inspiration is needed in every country in the world. Inspiration has always been It’s what everyone needs, and there’s no conceptual difference, so I think foreign audiences can still accept this movie.”

If "The Truman Show" had not been released and Tan Yue had not achieved good results at the global movie box office, even if he said this, it would be flattering, but now he really feels that if "Forrest Gump" can compete with "The Truman Show" "The Truman Show" will be released globally. Even if the box office performance is not as good as "The Truman Show", it will definitely be very high.

There is no basis for this, it is his own intuition.

After working as a director in the film department for so many years, although he does not have the ability to make movies, Zheng Tong still has a very vicious eye when reading scripts.

He believes that "Forrest Gump" has greater potential. Among movies of the same type, this movie will definitely bring inspirational films to a new level.

Tan Yue didn't say much. He believed that this movie would be recognized by audiences around the world.

"If you have anything to ask, just say it." Tan Yue looked at Zheng Tong's hesitation and said with a smile.

"Will "Forrest Gump" also be released abroad?" Zheng Tong was a little nervous and excited.

"It turns out that this is the case." Tan Yue said: "Let's take a look at the opportunity. It has not been determined yet."

Whether "Forrest Gump" can be released in the global film market is not something he can decide.

Zheng Tong guessed that this movie would most likely be released in the global film market.

Now thinking about Tan Yue's repeated reminders that "Forrest Gump" is a very important movie, this should be what he was referring to.

However, "The Truman Show" was also released simultaneously around the world, and it was the first one, so it should be more important.

Zheng Tong felt that there should be other things.

Not long after, Mr. Wu came to the office.

Chen Ye poured two glasses of water for the two of them and went out.

Tan Yue went straight to the point: "You should know about the new movie."

Wu Gong nodded. As a senior executive of Bright Entertainment Company, he had already heard about "Forrest Gump".

As the director of the public relations department, Mr. Wu has always been well-informed, and the actions of the film department during this period were not secretive. Many people in the company knew something about it, but Mr. Wu knew more.

Tan Yue continued: "Now that all the preparations have been completed, I came here to discuss with you what time would be more appropriate to start shooting the movie?"

"It's so fast!" Wu Gong remembered that it didn't seem like long before the actor's audition ended, and now the preparations for the script have been completed.

However, in his impression, Tan Yue has always focused on efficiency, and he shoots movies and TV series very quickly, but at the same time, the quality has not been left behind.

Zheng Tong explained: “The smoother the preparations are, the faster it will be.”

"Then Mr. Zheng has done a good job."

"There's nothing good about it. The more you do it, the more you'll become proficient. The publicity Mr. Wu does also makes many people envious."

Every time a new movie is released in the film department, it is inseparable from the promotion of the public relations department, which almost always triggers a lot of discussion on the Internet.

Being able to do this is, of course, inseparable from Wu Gong, the director of the public relations department.

What really impressed Zheng Tong was that Wu Gong was promoting "The Truman Show" abroad. On the first day of the release of "The Truman Show" in the overseas film market, facing such a harsh environment, it still received such high attention. Wu Gong's efforts can be imagined.

Tan Yue coughed lightly, interrupting the two people's business flattery, and said: "Today is November 2nd, check the calendar."

The two looked at each other, touched the back of their heads awkwardly, lowered their heads and took out their mobile phones, and quickly looked at the calendar. Wu Gong looked at the calendar on his mobile phone and calculated the time.

He had to consider the date from many aspects. Everyone paid more attention to getting a good start in everything they did, so it was best to have a good day.

Zheng Tong, who was watching and thinking about the start time, was actually full of what Tan Yue had just said about "Forrest Gump" being released abroad.

He also clearly knew the significance of this step. Both Tan Yue and the entire entertainment company were likely to change again.

The office fell into a brief silence.

Tan Yue opened the calendar on the computer. It was now early November. What time would be appropriate?

Engineer Wu asked, "Mr. Tan, what are your requirements for time?"

"Of course, the sooner the better." Since the preparations have been completed, there is no point in delaying it. Tan Yue also wants to start filming as soon as possible, after all, he still has to participate in the Paris Film Festival.

The start of filming is only the first part of the film. After the filming is completed, there are still many things to do, such as editing and music. Prepare everything before the time comes, so as not to be in a hurry before the time comes.

Engineer Wu nodded slightly and understood what Tan Yue meant: "Why don't we set the time on November 11th."

Tan Yue and Zheng Tong looked at Engineer Wu at the same time.

Engineer Wu pondered for a while and expressed his thoughts: "November 11th, the word of mouth and box office are as good."

In fact, this time is just a saying. The main reason is that Tan Yue plans to get the time as soon as possible. There are many miscellaneous things to prepare for the opening ceremony, which can be regarded as enough preparation time for Zheng Tong.

Engineer Wu dared to say this because he had enough confidence in Tan Yue.

He has filmed so many movies, and they are explosive in both word of mouth and box office.

The only one who can defeat him in these two aspects is himself.
