Yi Qing came to the Beijing Television Art Center for the first time, and standing at the gate, his first intuitive impression of the center was a capital LOW.

Anyway, it is also a subordinate unit of Beijing TV Station, and the office is not a high-rise building, but it will not be pressed into a courtyard.

Looking at the note in his hand, the place must not be wrong, and Yi Qing can only understand that the center is still in the stage of hard work.

More than a week has passed since the script of "Desire" was delivered, and Zhou Ling received a call from Li Hong, saying that he wanted to talk to the screenwriter face-to-face about the script.

It's not that Li Hong isn't in a hurry, these days, for the sake of the script, she is anxious every day, and finally met a good book, how can she not be in a hurry to take it.

But the problem is that there is no funds, even if you get the script, it is useless, this more than a week, she used it to run funds, grinding into the stage every day, sitting for a day, and finally the director was so worn by her that she couldn't do anything, plus Li Hong wrote a guarantee, which squeezed out 500,000 yuan from the already small amount of funds, not much money, but fortunately, "Desire" is basically an indoor play, and it doesn't cost much money.

Li Hong called Zhou Ling as soon as she got the money, she was also afraid of long nights and dreams, they were not the only TV stations in the capital, Wang Fulin, the director of the Red Mansion, was a CCTV person, in case this script was robbed by CCTV, she really couldn't find the grave when she cried.

Yi Qing received Zhou Ling's notice and knew that this matter was basically heard, and it happened that the next day was the day of Sunday's rest, so he took a car to the city early in the morning and found the center according to the address given by Zhou Ling.

Just as he was about to step inside, the old man who had been watching Yi Qing through the glass in the communication room hurriedly said: "Hey, little comrade, who are you looking for!?"

Yi Qing heard someone talking, and then he noticed that there was a small room at the door, and someone was looking at him inside.

"Uncle, I'm looking for Director Li, she asked me to come over!"

The old man didn't suspect that Yi Qing had ulterior motives, so he said "Wait", grabbed the phone on the table, said a few words, and glanced at Yi Qing a few more times.

"What's your name?"

"Yi Qing!"

After checking again, he put down the phone: "Come and register!"

Yi Qing filled out the visit form according to the other party's request, and then was released.

"Go inside, put the first item on the left, there's a sign at the door!"

Yi Qing hurriedly thanked him, bypassed the shadow back wall, and found the office, where there was a sign hanging at the door, one by one, the director's office!

Is this a TV drama production unit, or a Hutong neighborhood committee!

knocked on the door, and after a while, there was a sentence "Please come in", Yi Qing gently pushed the door open, walked in, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a middle-aged woman sitting behind the desk at the door opposite, with short hair slightly upturned and a kind face, but those eyes told Yi Qing that the deity was very shrewd.

"Are you Director Li?"

Li Hong got up, looked at Yi Qing, and said with a smile: "You are Comrade Yi Qing, the author of "Desire"?"

"Yes, just call me Xiao Yi!"

Li Hong nodded and said, "Please take a seat!"

After speaking, he poured a glass of water for Yi Qing and put it down, and then went straight to the point: "I have read your script and the screenwriters of the center, and in general, everyone's evaluation is very high." ”

Yi Qing listened carefully, didn't speak, and waited for Li Hong's next words.

Li Hong couldn't help but be a little curious when she saw that Yi Qing didn't speak, it is said that a young man heard these words, shouldn't he be excited to ask her to criticize and correct at this time?

Yi Qing didn't pick up, and Li Hong couldn't say the lines prepared later.

"Uh~~~~ Yi Qing, what do you think!?"

What can you think?

Of course, I sold the script to you, and you paid me a decent amount of money, do you still expect me to give selflessly!?

"Director Li, are you planning to shoot this script?"

Li Hong nodded, as long as it can be negotiated today, she will immediately prepare to set up the project, and she has even booked the director candidate.

Zhao Baogang is definitely not good, he has no experience, if he is chosen, it will be difficult to convince the public, but he can let Zhao Baogang be the assistant director, the big deal is to press the name of the first assistant director and promote his own family, as for the director candidate, she thinks Lu Xiaowei is good, and his "There is a Youth" won the first prize of the Feitian Award.

More importantly, when the center was established, the first director was Lu Xiaowei, but later for various reasons, he took the initiative to abdicate and make way for Xian, and now he has been filming documentaries on the TV station, but he can use this to invite the old director back, and it can also show that she knows people well.

"I do have that idea. Li Hong didn't want to be too eager, "I invited you here today just to hear your thoughts." ”

Yi Qing smiled and said, "Director Li can see this script and want to shoot it, of course I have no opinion." ”

Yi Qing knew that Li Hong wanted him to take the initiative to raise the issue of remuneration, but he just didn't speak, and he also knew that in this era, it was simply unrealistic to expect remuneration to make a fortune.

Zhou Ling participated in the adaptation of the script of the Red Mansion, which lasted three years, and how much did he get paid?

It's less than 3,000 yuan, and he only gives 80 for an episode on average, and he is a newcomer, so he will definitely not get this number.

Don't believe it, the income of literary and artistic workers in this era is absolutely not the same as that in the future, what sky-high salary is even more delusional, the same classic "Journey to the West", filming lasted six years, as the starring teacher Zhang Jinlai only got a total of more than 2,000 yuan, the salary of each episode is 70, plus some subsidies, and this is the number you get.

The crew of the Red Mansion is similar, Ouyang Fenqiang as the starring role, Chen Xiaoxu is a little better, similar to Yi Qing's supporting role, the salary for one episode starts at fifty yuan, and Yi Qing has about three episodes of the whole drama, that is to say, he can only get more than 100 yuan after three years of busy work.

Although the remuneration for this manuscript is not much, Yi Qing doesn't want to do day work for his hard work, so for this script, he has been staying up for several days in a row, and he can't afford to give his hard-earned money.

Li Hong realized that the young man in front of her was not easy to deal with, and she originally wanted to fan it and make Yi Qing dizzy, and then take the opportunity to suppress the price, but it was not that she had any bad intentions, but the funds in her hand were not abundant, so she could save a little.

But Yi Qing didn't accept the offer at all, and Li Hong was also out of options: "Since everyone has no opinions, let's talk about the issue of remuneration next, Xiao Yi!

This is the rhythm of crying poor, are you tight on funds, do you have a dime relationship with me?

Yi Qing smiled and said, "You say, I'll listen." ”

This unfortunate boy is a dough maker.

"How about thirty in an episode?"

Thirty, big sister, are you teasing me?

Although I have guessed that the price code will not be too high, this is too low!

For 1,500 yuan, can I afford to exhaust myself to death?

Originally, according to Yi Qing's idea, as long as the other party didn't push the price too low, he would admit it, and now this is the market, but Li Hong only gave the price of thirty yuan for an episode, which is obviously fooling him for not knowing how to do it!

Since Li Hong is not polite, Yi Qing has no need to be polite: "Director Li! This script is good, you know, I also know, thirty-one episodes are indeed too low." ”

The next two people had a war of words, for their own interests, Yi Qing would never let too much, and finally the two of them finalized the price of fifty-one episodes, although this price code could not satisfy Yi Qing, but in fact it could not be considered low.

After signing the contract, Li Hong gave Yi Qing a certificate that he could now go to the center's finance department to receive the money.

It's that simple?

Yi Qing was shocked!

According to his understanding of some government functions, he should not fill out a lot of forms first, and then the other party will pay a part, and the rest of the money, he needs to hate it several times, and he doesn't have to get it in the end.

But what is it now?

Yi Qing looked at the approval form in his hand and really felt that this Director Li was a good person.

As for Li Hong's final question of the screenwriter's column to be co-signed, Yi Qing didn't care at all, there must be a group of in-service screenwriters in the center, he is now robbing other people's jobs, if he doesn't even give in to a nominal issue, it really can't be justified.

This is also the reason why Yi Qing prefers the Beijing Television Art Center, rather than through director Wang Fulin, and submits the script to CCTV.

CCTV also has a large group of screenwriters, and the screenwriters of other people are not the same as those of the center, they are all old qualifications, and they have the right to speak on the script, if they strongly oppose it, the leaders of the station should also pay attention to their opinions, Yi Qing will definitely offend the interests of a large group of people if he throws the script over, who can be happy.

If you really take CCTV, it won't be a matter of co-authorship at that time, maybe Yi Qing's script can be changed beyond recognition by them.

Yi Qing wrote the script, not only for the remuneration of more than 2,000 yuan, but more importantly, for fame.

The screenwriters in the center don't have so many problems, they are basically here to support the elderly, that is, Li Hong didn't point out what they could do, as long as they were passable, otherwise she was looking for scripts in a hurry, why didn't she look for them.

went to the finance side to get the money, holding a thick envelope, Yi Qing felt a lot more at ease, 2500 yuan is not much, but in this era, it is also very objective, he used to be a chef in a state-run hotel, and his salary a month was only a few dozen yuan, that is, his master Song Yuan, only more than 100 yuan a month, this money is equivalent to his salary in the hotel for several years.

came out of finance, just thought about going to Li Hong's side to say thanks, but as soon as he went out, he collided with someone, thanks to his kung fu and stable play, the other party was not so lucky, and he sat on the ground directly.

"Oh! Hey, who are you, who are you!"

Yi Qing knew that he had bumped into someone, and he subconsciously wanted to apologize, but after seeing the other party's appearance clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned, this face is not good-looking, and now it definitely belongs to the kind of person who can't recognize it if he throws it on the street, but Yi Qing is different, although this face is much younger and more youthful than in the future, but he can recognize those two big teeth, even if they turn into ashes.

This Nima is not Feng pants!
