    In the kitchen of the beautiful house in Xiangjiang Lu, Yuan Qiaoqiao was busy waving a spatula. Gu Qiao was holding a plate with chicken feet and ribs, standing aside, eating and chatting with her.

    ¡°My second brother thinks that if he wants to make a difference in his major, he must study for a Ph.D., and it¡¯s harder to get a Ph.D. in the United States, so even if he wants to return to China, he has to wait until he gets his Ph.D.

    But you have already graduated with a master's degree. Because you feel that computer expertise is updated quickly, you don't want to continue studying. You didn't come back before because you wanted to expand the company you and your colleagues established when you developed the Chinese input software. Now that you have split up, you  After quitting the company, what are you still doing in the United States?  "

    "The domestic computer market is like a desert, and the entire global Internet industry has encountered a bubble. It is hard to say when and whether it will recover. Even if I return to China, what can I do? On the contrary, I will have more opportunities to stay in the United States."

    "How could it be a desert? Judging from the huge number of downloads of the Chinese input software you developed in the domestic market, it can be seen that this is a very fertile land, but it is not developed enough. The only problem is that professional 'farmers' like you are going to use it.  It was reclaimed.¡±

    "There is indeed a market, I don't deny it, but the investment is also very huge. Although I have made a lot of money from the Chinese software I developed, if I invest in it, it will only make a small splash at most, and there will be no follow-up."  I need additional investment and need to bring in venture capital, but I haven¡¯t decided what to do yet, so what can I do to convince others to invest in me?¡±

    Yuan Qiaoqiao thought for a moment and said, "Since you haven't thought of anything to do yet, cousin, why don't you come and help me for the time being. I previously invested in a company in Xiangjiang that specializes in film and television post-production, animation, games and other special effects, and the results were average.

    The main reason is that the expenses here in Xiangjiang are relatively high, but the big guys in the film and television industry are not very willing to spend money to do this. The price is high, and they feel it is not worth it. Even if they have to use it, they feel that the technology in Xiangjiang is not good.  Well, it would be better to spend that money and hire a foreign company to do it.

    I want to move it back to the mainland. After all, if the work location and employees are changed to the mainland, the cost can be reduced a lot. Moreover, Hainan Weiwei is a partner of Xinyuan, and it has opened several fantasy dramas there.  , it should be no problem to win this business.  "

    Gu? After a moment of silence, he said, "Let me think about this carefully. I can't make a decision yet."

    "Okay, then think about it carefully." Yuan Qiaoqiao smiled and was about to say something else when the doorbell rang. She hurriedly opened the door and welcomed Sister Kuan in.

    After she introduced her cousin and Sister Kuan to each other, Gu took off the other hanging apron, tied it around herself, pushed her out of the kitchen, and said with a smile: "Leave the rest of the dishes to me, you go  Please stay with Sister Kuan."

    Yuan Qiaoqiao gave a few worried words, then walked out of the kitchen, took off her apron, made tea, put it on the coffee table, and sat down opposite Sister Kuan on the sofa.

    "My film "The Mansion Gate" has finished airing on the national channel. The TV series is very popular on the screen. The second round of broadcast has already begun. But in terms of publicity, compared with other actors, I have no voice at all. My family has raised objections to this, and I have appeased them.  alright¡­¡­"

    Sister Kuan was not unaware of her aunt and godmother's dissatisfaction with her as an agent, but she didn't care. After listening to her words, she smiled nonchalantly and said, "It's obvious that I am an incompetent agent.  If I didn¡¯t help you publicize it, why should you help me hide it?¡±

    "I'm not hiding it for you, but I don't want to cause a lot of unnecessary trouble around me."

    In fact, Yuan Qiaoqiao understands Sister Kuan's mentality and looks down on her if she doesn't help her promote her, because she positions her as a movie star, not a TV series producer. Besides, if she goes to act in a TV series and is not the protagonist, even if it becomes a hit,  The food bonus isn¡¯t much, so what¡¯s there to promote?  With too much publicity, it would be difficult for her to enter the film industry if she was positioned by the media as a TV series producer.

    "Sister Kuan's mentality is entirely due to the different situations between Hong Kong and the mainland.

    Unlike Xiangjiang, in the Mainland, although the status of movie stars is higher than those who make TV series, the boundaries between them are not particularly clear.

    The reasons are: First, the film market in the Mainland is sluggish at this time. Except for movie stars like Gong Wei who can still maintain their identity and not descend into the world, most of the rest are filming TV series. After all, no matter how big the wrist is, everyone has to eat and drink.  Isn¡¯t Lazarus?

    Second, domestic TV dramas are also paid for filming, unlike TV drama actors in Xiangjiang. Except for a few top artists, they all get a monthly salary like wage earners, and it is not high.

    Third, Sister Kuan saw that Yuan Qiaoqiao's film career was not particularly smooth. Although her acting skills were recognized by the director and the audience, and her work was taken to the three major international film festivals in Europe, she was not welcomed by the public.  Not well known?, seeing that she was out in the industry by singing, she wanted her to shift her focus to being a singer. The actor slowed down for a while, but Yuan Qiaoqiao didn't listen, so she wanted to use this to force her.

    "I have listened to the two songs you collaborated with my brother on. They are very good and have great potential to become popular. I discussed with my brother and his manager, and the song "The Wind Blows" was scheduled for mid-June.  It will be released on the market, and the Mandarin version and the Cantonese version will be released together; as for the song "Don't Ask About the Return Date", it has been postponed to September or October. Do you have any opinions?"

    "I don't understand this aspect of things. Sister Kuan, you can make the final decision. If you need me to attend any publicity activities, just let me know in advance."

    Suddenly remembering something, Yuan Qiaoqiao hurriedly said: "By the way, my movie "My Brothers and Sisters" will be released in the mainland soon. This is a movie. Do you want to promote it?"

    Sister Kuan nodded, "No problem. But this movie is sponsored by Xinyuan. Your aunt told you what kind of publicity strategy is there? I will promote it for you, and I have to cooperate with the company."

    Thinking of the publicity methods mentioned by her aunt, Yuan Qiaoqiao laughed dryly, "There doesn't seem to be any offline publicity activities, but because Mr. Chen's sister from Xinyuan works for the National Channel 6 movie channel, she may work on the National Channel 6 movie channel.  We will make a program for this movie to promote it; we will also place advertisements in print media and on websites.¡±

    Seeing Sister Kuan's expression of "just a few tricks", she hurriedly explained, "The main reason is that in the current domestic film market, even if it is heavily publicized, it will not have any effect. Besides, the investment in this film is not big, and the new movie is not very popular."  Telecom's publicity expenses are limited, so even if you want to make a big splash, you can't do anything about it.

    Previously, director Zheng Xiaolong, who was particularly well-known in the Mainland Beijing circle, invited Liang Jiahui and Jiang Wenli to make a movie called "Gua Sha". Using personal connections, it was released on Women's Day. This movie was also the main investment of Xinyuan.  , if Liang Jiahui had not had a certain influence in France and sold the film in Cannes this time, Xinyuan would have suffered a huge loss based solely on the mainland box office.

    In my movie "Brothers and Sisters", only Xia Yu is famous, but although he is the Venice Best Actor, he does not have the influence of Liang Jiahui. The others, it seems that I am still a little famous, but Kuan  Sister, you also know how famous I am, and the behind-the-scenes production team cannot compare to Director Zheng¡¯s team, the amount of investment and the acting skills of the actors"

    "Okay, okay, you don't need to explain. I understand what you mean. Anyway, nothing is as good as the movie "Gua Sha". After "Gua Sha" was released, the box office was not good, so Xinyuan also ignored it.  Not much expectations.

    Therefore, the so-called publicity is actually similar to relying on "tap water". If the box office is good, it is good luck, "a blind cat has hit a dead mouse";  You can afford the loss, is that what you mean?  "

    "You only guessed half of it right, the second half of what you said.

    But I have to correct one thing. It¡¯s not that Xinyuan doesn¡¯t care about this movie. After all, I am the starring role in the movie. It¡¯s just that given the current environment of the mainland film market, even if there are some offline promotion activities, I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t attract audiences to the theater.  See a movie.

    This movie is a literary and artistic film, and Sister Kuan, you know the audience for it. Xinyuan only gave up the hype after conducting market research.  "

    After hearing what she said, Sister Kuan nodded and said: "I forgot, your aunt founded Xinyuan for you, and this is the first movie you starred in to be released in the mainland. It should be taken seriously. I just mentioned this  Forgot.

    Okay, I understand. I will contact Mr. Tan or Mr. Chen from Xinyuan later and we will communicate again.  "

    Since Xinyuan attaches great importance to this movie because of Yuan Qiaoqiao, Sister Kuan thinks that she should contact the boss of Xinyuan to see if the promotion strategy can be changed or added, and she cannot let its promotion be so useless.

    "As the summer vacation approaches, I'm afraid of the movie "The Face of First Love." In the second half of the year, director Peng Xiaolian of the Shanghai Film Studio is going to make a movie called "Pretend I Have No Feelings," in which the daughter's character is contacted through my uncle.  I've accepted it.

    I received news that Miya will invest in and produce several commercial films in the second half of the year, and is in the process of forming a team. The director and actors have not yet been decided, because the investment is not large, just medium. I hope Sister Kuan can help me fight for it.  At least tear down one drama for me.

    No matter how you say it, Miya is my contract company. Although it didn't take care of me much after I signed with the company, I still have some advantages as a contracted artist under it to fight for the company's internal resources.  At the same time, I will also let Xinyu participate and help me fight with you. I hope I can hear good news in the end.  "

    After hearing what she said, Sister Kuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, I understand, and I will try my best to help you fight for it."
