Chapter 84： Shoddy

The night is getting darker, and the number of people on the road has not decreased. North America is the world's largest movie market. There are many avid movie fans. They have different hobbies. It is also a pleasure for many people to watch some interesting small productions at the film festival. Where.

Besides during the film festival, most of the films of the road show will never be seen in the future.

Not to mention entering the theater, the chances of becoming a video tape or disc are very small.

is the buyer of the film company. Every year, the Saint Denis Film Festival can produce several small productions with good market profits.

"It seems to be from the Atison company."

A movie was being shown at the road show in front of him. Tony pointed to one of the dozen or so viewers and said, "The one we have seen in the front of the hotel is called Billy."

Ronan also saw it. He raised his head and glanced at the shaking picture on the small screen, and said to Tony, "Let's go over and take a look."

The two came to the place facing the screen. Billy also saw Ronan and smiled at him. Ronan smiled back.

The two sides were not familiar with each other, and they did not speak.

"What a broken film."

On the left hand side of Ronan, an audience member complained: "I feel dizzy because of the shaking."

He greeted his female companion: "Go, go."

The female companion also shook her head: "The picture quality is terrible."

The two turned around and left, without any nostalgia.

Ronan doesn't care about these things, holding his chest with one hand and squeezing his chin with the other, watching the terrible pictures on the screen with interest.

The picture quality is really bad, and the jitter is quite severe.

From his perspective, it is not difficult to see that this is a cheap DV camera and handheld shooting. Professional equipment like Steadicam must have never been used.

After watching for a while, Ronan watched the movie show again.

There are only two people in this road show, both in their thirties, one is a white man with glasses, and the other is a Latin mixed race.

"Too bad..."

There were a lot of people complaining about this film, and soon there were Ronan, Tony and Billy from Atison Entertainment.

Tony whispered: "Let’s go too, this is not a movie, it’s just a low-quality selfie DV."

Ronan shook his head: "Don't worry, wait a while."

He continued to look at the picture, it seemed that it was a little different from what he had in his impression. In many places, the order was different, and there were too many flaws. What seemed to be wrong?

Next, Ronan wants to understand, edit! It's a clip!

It is estimated that after the film in the previous life fell into the hands of the film company, it was edited again.

"Are you here?" Someone walked to the place between Ronan and Billy from Artison Entertainment, looked around, and said, "I found an interesting movie?"

The person here was Gray Enrique. When he passed by, he saw Ronan and Billy staring at the same movie. As the buyer's sensitive touch, he immediately urged him to come over.

Billy glanced at Gray, shrugged, and said, "Isn't there any interesting movies, just marveling that the film festival is getting more and more degenerate. Even this kind of outdoor selfie DV video can be used as a road show."

said, he still shook his head.

Ronan echoed: "The details reflect the overall situation. The movies I have seen are disappointing. The film festival is not as good as before."

Gray Enrique certainly wouldn't believe the words of the two colleagues. After smiling, he stared at the small screen for a while, and the lens jittered violently. With the rough and inferior picture, he felt dizzy.

He glanced at his two colleagues left and right again. It turned out that these two did not tell lies. This is not a movie at all. The home videos he made are better than this.

Sure enough, the Saint Denis Film Festival has no lower limit. Anything really broken can come to show.

Billy Horford glanced at Ronan and Gray. Seeing the two men shook their heads vigorously, he didn't say much, but instead glanced at the two people who were showing.

This DV video is really bad, but it gives him a strange feeling. This feeling makes a professional buyer vaguely feel a little value, but can't tell where the value is.

The picture on the small screen suddenly went dark, and something went wrong with the old projector.

"I'm sorry." The white man with glasses said to this side quickly: "The projector is broken, I'm very sorry."

He didn't mean to repair the projector, instead he leaned in.

When 　　 was showing, he was quietly observing, from the last few people left, he smelled the movie buyer.

When this movie was shot, the bottom of the press box must not be kept. He has been to many film companies with the film on his back, but none of them showed even the slightest interest. Coming to the Saint Denis Film Festival was the last helpless choice.

No one cares at the film festival, so they can only go back to the warehouse.

"I'm Daniel Malik, the director of this film." The middle-aged man with eyes introduced himself first, then took out his business cards, handed them to Ronan, Gray, Billy and others one by one, and said: " We will do the screening tomorrow. I try to rent a new projector. If you are interested, you can call me and I will inform you of the screening time."

Billy took the business card and replied casually: "Thank you."

Although Gray didn't look down on this film, he had excellent professionalism as a buyer. Just like Ronan, he took the business card politely and said with a smile: "A very characteristic film."

Daniel Malik finally handed the business card to Ronan. Ronan then glanced at it and said, "Very interesting film."

This is a false statement, let alone Billy and Gray, two professional buyers can hear it, Tony has the urge to roll his eyes, can he be more perfunctory?

Ronan put the business card in his pocket, pulled Tony down, and said, "Let's go."

Tony nodded: "Stop watching this kind of bad film, you take me to watch the film, and look for a seductive one too?"

Luo Nan said as he walked, "I feel dizzy because the camera is shaking, and I have had enough. Go! Go back to sleep."

These words were passed over clearly and unmistakably, Daniel Malik smiled helplessly, and he was really wrong to spend money to make this film.

Gray also shook his head. This kind of film is worthless. Strictly speaking, it is not a film at all.

Seeing Gray Enrique leave, Billy hesitated and left.

I felt that there was some hidden value in this film, but he was rationally told that this kind of tattered thing would not be sold on the market and sold on video tapes.

Let's wait for the director to release the film next time, let's check it out.

This kind of film, ninety-nine percent of the time, it is possible that it fell into the hands of the filming party.

By the way, the picture is so rough, the camera is so shaky, and there is no storyline at all. What do you buy back for? Distribute videotapes directly?

Anyway, I am also a senior movie buyer, UU Reading www. Uukanshu.com came to the Saint Denis Film Festival and bought a video tape movie that had no market. It was too bad.

Back to the hotel room, Tony changed his clothes and called Ronan to the hotel bar.

"Maybe you can meet a female star?" Tony said to Ronan.

Ronan took out the business card, took out his mobile phone, and waved to Tony: "Go ahead, I still have work to deal with."

Seeing Ronan pressing the number with his business card, Tony opened his mouth in surprise: "Isn't it? Ronan, you are actually interested in that rags movie? You don't want to buy that DV video? Can it count as a movie?"

Ronan held up his fingers, made a silent gesture, and dialed the number.

Tony stared at Ronan incredulously, and kept scratching his head: Even if I am not a professional in the film industry, I have seen a lot of movies. The most crude and shoddy grandma-level* produced in Germany are better than that DV video.

Ronan ignored Tony and waited patiently for the call to be connected.

"This is Daniel Malik, can I help you with anything?"

Hearing this voice, Ronan put away the contempt that he had deliberately pretended before, and calmly said: "Hello, director Daniel Melick, I am Ronan Anderson, the movie buyer of Relativity Entertainment Group, I watched it tonight. I want to ask you to talk about your video."

The voice over the phone was full of surprises: "Ah...ah! Okay! When? Now?"

Ronan couldn’t be too eager. It’s not good for the next step. He said faintly: “Tomorrow at nine o’clock tomorrow morning, I’ll be waiting for you in the cafe of the Park Intercity Hotel.”

"Good! Good!" Very excited over there: "I must be there on time!"
