Chapter 310 Weibo Swordsman
Things are almost done, and November is almost Chen An's last rest time.
Zhou Xun, who found a job, no longer went to the company every day.
Isn’t it that I go there every day just to find Chen An to help with projects?
Ning Hao had made sufficient preparations before the filming, and after the project was established, the preparations were quick.
It’s almost time to run to Shancheng (CQ).
Apart from occasionally paying attention to Weibo production, he went to a certain Jiaotong University.
A 19-year-old boy was found. He was thin, had an ordinary face but his eyes were full of brilliance.
"Hello, you should know me, right?"
Chen An looked at the child and felt the confusion in his eyes. He didn't know why he found him.
"I know him, but..." Wu Hanqing nodded, not understanding why the other party would find him.
Why would a well-known director like me, an IT technician, come to him?
Chen An smiled and said, "You haven't graduated yet, right? You must be curious about how I know you. Because of the Phantom Troupe, I saw your abilities. Are you interested in using your abilities in my company?"
The young genius, his own words were diluted, while the other party's were the real deal.
"Ah, me." Wu Hanqing was a little confused. Why should I, a filmmaker, go to this class?
Chen An pulled out a letter from his bosom and handed it to the other party. It was printed formally with red paint. "I'm not talking about Light Year Media asking you to make a movie, but the Internet industry. You know blogs, right?"
"know."
Wu Hanqing nodded. He himself was one of the blog users, not just a blogger.
I often publish my own security technology articles on major website forums.
"Then I won't say much. I plan to enter the blogging industry and make innovative changes. It's called Weibo. It's different from Penguin and uses fission-style social networking. I can't tell you the details. It's still in the works and hasn't been used yet, but I hope you can go there after graduation if you're willing to stay."
Chen An did not say many words of affirmation, but simply stated his purpose.
The choice is given to the other party, and they just need to take a look.
For a 19-year-old boy, it was amazing that the famous director Chen An came to his door in person and handed him an envelope.
He picked up the envelope on the table, without opening it, he just nodded and said, "I'll go."
"Then I'm looking forward to it." Chen An stood up and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the other party.
The other party is still a student and has not graduated yet. Anyway, we have already contacted each other, so I just have to wait and see whether he or she can come over.
After sending the other person back to school, Chen An also returned to Beijing.
There is still a long way to go and we need to continue recruiting talent.
The second step is to go somewhere!
Find someone who can truly take charge of Weibo.
Today's ronin is still in the founder's era.
After several rounds of financing, it was successfully listed and became one of the four major portals in China.
Of course, the other two QQ factories and Tencent are all shareholders.
What Chen An was looking for was the other party’s chief operating officer, Cao Guowei!
As a news portal, the other party knows Chen An very well.
"Director Chen, I've heard of you for a long time. Your name is known all over the world." Cao Guowei didn't feel much about Chen An's invitation. He thought that the other party wanted to discuss the distribution and promotion of the film in the future. After all, he was famous for promoting on the Internet.
Chen An took a sip of coffee and shook his head: "Mr. Cao, you are too kind. As the leaders of the new media era, you will be the most famous in the future."
"No way, after all, it still depends on you to get people to pay attention to me. Besides, I'm not Mr. Cao. I'm just an employee." Cao Guowei shook his head, a little surprised by Chen An's address.
"Mr. Cao has become the chief operating officer in just a few years, so I think he won't be far away."
Chen An of the Kua Kua Shen Church kept praising, which made Cao Guowei raise an eyebrow.
From the sound of it, he seems to be here to discuss the release and promotion with me.
"Sure enough, you figured it out. I won't hide it anymore." Chen An noticed Cao Guowei's abnormality. "I plan to enter the Internet industry. Of course, it may be unbelievable in front of a professional like you, but I'll be frank. I want you to be the president!"
Although there is no trace of him now, I still forgot to mention it. It seems more impressive to shake the president's hand as soon as you open your mouth.
Although Cao Guowei was a little surprised, he quickly reacted and said, "Hahaha, Director Chen, you must be joking. I'm doing pretty well in a certain company and there's a lot of potential for development that's suitable for me."
"That's because Mr. Cao is very capable and has a lot of room for advancement. But Mr. Wang is no simple figure, after all. What should we do next?"
Now is the era of the founder of a certain wave. The person who was able to found a certain wave and develop it into what it is today is no ordinary person, and his courage and vision are absolutely outstanding.
For employees, it is undoubtedly a lucky thing to have such a boss, but for someone as capable and motivated as Cao Guowei, such a boss is both a help and a hindrance!
Cao Guowei listened to Chen An's words without saying anything, but his hands under the table unconsciously clenched!
Chen An continued: "I'm not looking for you for anything else. I'm making a movie, and I want to find a swordsman for it, and you are that person!"
When in doubt, always try to make big promises first. Before you even start thinking about something, you'll already be trying to seduce the other party!
"You don't have to answer me. I know that you guys are interested in blogging, and that's what I'm focusing on. And I can guarantee that it will be more innovative and complete than you think. It's derived from blogging but not entirely blogging."
After finishing his last sip of coffee, Chen An took out an envelope from the table and handed it to the other party as usual: "You decide for yourself, I'll wait for your answer, President Cao!"
Then he left the coffee shop without looking back and paid the money.
After the other party left, Cao Guowei did not speak, but narrowed his eyes, looked at the place where the other party had just sat, looked at the envelope on the table, and reached out to take it.
It was brand new and tidy, with red paint on it. I originally wanted to reach out and open it, but when I touched the edge, I stopped and put the letter back into my bag.
The other party’s words were simple, but they were like a spell. When I looked up, it was as if I saw Mr. Wang hanging over my head!
But I have worked hard to get to where I am today, and it is not so easy to give up.
He left without saying a word.
With the remaining time, Chen Anfei flew here and there for several days and visited some teams.
To be honest, I haven’t felt this tired even when I was shooting non-stop.
And since he had already found the source, Chen An also discussed the promotion and marketing of "Lost on Journey" with some companies.
At the end of November, the promotion of "Lost on Journey" officially began.
It will be released after "Kung Fu", on January 15th, to avoid a clash with "Kung Fu", and will be released after the other film has weakened.
It’s approaching the Spring Festival, and after the hype of “A World Without Thieves”, Wang Baoqiang’s popularity has been increased, maximizing the publicity!
Quietly, far away in North America, "No Country for Old Men" is also preparing for a small-scale release!
This time Chen An did not go there in person. This type of movie was already doomed to have a ceiling on the box office. In fact, it would not make much difference whether Chen An went there in person or not.
The purpose of releasing the film in this period is obviously to win an Oscar and then sell the overseas distribution rights.
So Chen An is not in a hurry. He will wait until word of mouth grows before promoting it and seize the few weeks left for a large-scale release!
Zeng Li, who has taken a long break, has finally made a comeback. The movie "A World Without Thieves", which started shooting in April this year, is scheduled to be released during the Lunar New Year holiday!
It is scheduled before "Kung Fu" and will be released simultaneously in Mainland China and Hong Kong on December 9th!
