Chapter 635: The Last Piece of the Puzzle Is Complete
"I don't think it's a way to go on like this, otherwise you just set up a studio on your own like Hao Lei. He Xin proposed.
Since Fan Xiaopang opened the era of star studios, many people have followed suit. For example, Wang Jinghua's Hao Lei did not choose to renew his contract after the expiration of the early year, but opened his own studio.
Cheng Hao was faintly moved, but he still shook his head and said, "Hao Lei's term has expired, and I still have two years left in my contract with Sister Hua." ”
"What does it matter? Brother Jun is also preparing to open a studio. ”
Cheng Hao's eyes widened when he heard this: "Is it true or fake? Lao Wu is now desperately trying to win over Brother Jun!"
Hu Jun is now known as "Brother Orange Sky". In the past few years, he broke into Hong Kong, but unfortunately with the decline of Hong Kong films, he did not make a name for himself. After coming back, he starred in several historical TV series, and the response was average, and the only ones who could win the movie were Liu Zeshui in "Assembly Number" and Zhao Yun in "Red Cliff", but they were all supporting roles.
Compared with the time when "Dragon Babu" was on fire, the career inevitably fell into a trough. But he is still nominally the "first brother of the orange sky", and like Cheng Hao's "first sister of the orange sky", it has symbolic meaning for the orange sky.
Lao Wu is currently desperately trying to win over Hu Jun and Cheng Hao, just to minimize the impact of Wang Jinghua's upcoming exodus, and at the same time achieve the purpose of hitting the opponent.
"He told me about it the last time I had a drink. I didn't take it seriously at the time, and now according to what you say, I guess he is also in a dilemma, so he simply doesn't follow anyone and stands on his own. He Xin said thoughtfully.
"I see. But I didn't even think about it. Cheng Hao nodded and said distressedly.
After working hard in the circle for so many years, it cannot be said that she has achieved fame, but it may be that with the change of age and mentality, she now intends to slow down her work rhythm and pay more attention to the quality of the play.
Remember the URL
To be honest, Wang Jinghua is really a good agent, she won't desperately squeeze you and make you work non-stop. Like when she herded sheep in the first half of last year, in order to prepare for the play "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart", Wang Jinghua not only complained about it, but also encouraged her to make a breakthrough in art.
Originally, the work was handled by the brokerage company, receiving three or five advertisements, occasionally participating in commercial performances, and then receiving one or two high-quality plays a year, which is very satisfactory to her with the current situation.
However, if you want to set up your own studio, you may be more autonomous, and you don't have to be picked up, but there is a lot of miscellaneous transactional work, not to mention that the annual operating expenses are not a small amount.
He Xin saw that his girlfriend was afraid of being content with the status quo and afraid of trouble, and said with a smile: "Actually, the studio is not so complicated, I think Chu Qing is becoming more and more capable now, if she is still willing to follow you, at most she will find a copywriter and handyman, a publicity and planning, and let Wang Qin help you take care of the financial aspect, and the personnel will be live." As for the office space, there is a ready-made spare office in our company, so you can use it first. ”
"No way!"
Cheng Hao shook his head resolutely and snorted: "Wouldn't I become attached to you in this way!"
Although the two have been together for so many years, they are still very separated financially, and they are basically in charge of their own affairs, except for the house they bought together in Shanghai back then.
It's not that the two intend to be financially independent, in Cheng Hao's words, as long as they are not married, they cannot be regarded as joint property of husband and wife. It's not that she deliberately wanted to guard against anything, when most people were not optimistic about "Wulin Gaiden", she still gave her boyfriend the greatest support.
Over the years, as He Xin's career has developed faster and faster, her assets have long been several times that of her, which may be a means for her to maintain her dignity in front of her boyfriend.
"As for opening a studio, I never thought about it before, so I had to think about it. ”
"Then drag it out, anyway, you have to have two years of contract with Sister Hua. ”
He Xin still knows his girlfriend very well, and he has the habit of making decisions before acting, but what he really decides is absolutely neat and neat to do, without any hesitation. Just like when she resigned from Renyi without hesitation.
"If you are really annoyed during this time, you should go back to Qingdao for a while. He Xin said again.
"Back to Qingdao?"
Cheng Hao was obviously a little hesitant, not that she didn't want to go back, but every time she went home, she wouldn't be able to stay for a few days. Now it is even more so, not only Cheng's mother, but now even Cheng's father often nags her, and the words are nothing more than that she is not young, she is almost thirty years old in a blink of an eye, it is time to get married and have children, and they can help take care of the children while they are in good health now.
Regarding the topic of urging marriage, because of the two main forces of Cheng's father and Cheng's mother, He Xin has long stopped mentioning it now, and is waiting for it to come to fruition.
"Two days ago, my mother called, although the words were not explicit, but it meant that we should go home and have a look when we have time. Well, I'll stay home with you for a while this weekend. He Xindao.
"Isn't your new show going to start next week?" Cheng Hao said.
"It's no problem to boot up, but I may not be able to join the group until the end of the month. Besides, everything that should be prepared is almost ready, relax and combine work and rest!" He Xin said with a smile.
"What about Director Xu Ke?"
"Let's see how I talk to Sister Nan Sheng tomorrow, but I don't think it's a big problem. Even if there is a problem, it is nothing more than some trivial nonsense, and it is enough for Xiaodouding and Lao Gao to deal with it. ”
"That'...... Okay. "Wenxin School
......
"Sister Nansheng, happy cooperation!"
"Happy working together!"
Shi Nansheng shook hands with him with a smile.
Originally, He Xin thought that this might be a difficult negotiation, after all, Xu Ke is a big director and has his own consistent way of working. For example, there are no restrictions on creation, increased investment, and so on. He was even mentally prepared for the script to be completely overturned.
Unexpectedly, Shi Nansheng only made two requests straight to the point. One is that the casting must be decided by Xu Ke in the end, of course, Xinhao Media has the right to make suggestions, but in the event of a conflict, I hope to respect the director's decision.
As for the three protagonists proposed by Xinhao Media about Li Ningyu, Gu Xiaomeng and Takeda, Shi Nansheng immediately expressed his welcome, but it can be seen that there may be some reservations about Cheng Hao playing Cheng Hao. After all, Cheng Hao has no big-screen works that can be taken so far.
However, He Xin is not worried, as long as he shows Xu Laowei a piece of "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart", it will be enough to convince him.
The second requirement is that during the filming process, the director must be fully responsible, and Xu Laowei has always been very disgusted with the fingers from the producer.
This requirement is more of a gesture that the so-called full responsibility is just that the producer should not interfere with some details in the filming process. However, the producer still has the power to supervise and revise things in the general direction such as scripts, budgets, shooting schedules, and commercial effects.
Otherwise, like Jiang Wen, a good script is left behind, and there is often an impromptu performance, allowing him to enjoy himself alone, and then he obviously has a budget, but the final expenditure has to be doubled or even tripled, who can stand this kind of thing!
Of course, in the end, Shi Nansheng put forward a director's salary offer that was no less than the value of Hong Kong's first-line stars. He Xin naturally agreed.
Not to mention that Xu Laowei was originally worth this price, if he is currently in the low ebb period, he may save one or two million by bargaining, but it feels very important for a director. In case the money is not in place, and the director is aggrieved and feels bad, then the final loss may not be as simple as one or two million.
It is nothing more than an increase of 10 million in the cost budget to the original investment.
On this point, Yu Dong agrees with him. He even invested in "Wheat Field" with a budget of hundreds of millions on Fan Xiaopang's side, how could he worry about tens of millions of investments with He Xin's side. And from his heart, he is undoubtedly more optimistic about "The Wind". It's just that Xinhao Media insisted on being the main control of this project, and Bona only got 40% of the share, and he was a little unwilling.
And he also hopes that the higher the cost, the better, and Xinhao Media may compromise on the investment ratio due to financial pressure.
"Boss, what about the TV series?"
The three of them sent Shi Nansheng out all the way and watched her car drive away. Xiao Douding turned around and suddenly said to He Xin.
"What TV series?" He Xin was stunned.
"Hey, boss, don't forget, we bought the copyright of "The Wind" in the first place, but the movies and TV series were all included in it. Now that the last piece of the puzzle of the film project is complete, the TV series can still start preparation. ”
On the one hand, movies can drive TV dramas, realize resource sharing, and greatly save costs.
On the other hand, it is also one of the ways to share the risk of investment. For example, like "Seven Swords" back then, there was a month between the TV series and the movie, and in the end, the movie hit the street, but the TV series made money, which saved a lot of losses for the investor Ciwen Media.
"And when the TV series comes, we can also invite director Xu Ke to supervise the production. ”
"Hey, why didn't you bring it up just now?"
"It's the same. After all, movies are big things, and we have to finalize this end first, and then we can talk about other things. Little Douding winked at him slyly and smiled.
"Oh, if the TV series starts filming at the same time, will there be a problem with the funds?" He Xin muttered.
"No problem, there are many companies that want to cooperate with us now, and Director Hou called me in the morning to discuss this matter?"
"So, do you prefer to cooperate with Shandong Film and Television Center?"
"Not necessarily, the monkey is a goblin! Of course, whoever has the highest conditions to cooperate with whom. Not only Shandong film and television, but also Hualu Baina and Haiyan have strong cooperation intentions. ”
Hearing that Xiao Douding was actually called Hou Hongliang Monkey, He Xin couldn't help but be amused. Speaking of which, Hou Hongliang's sticky hair is even better than a monkey.
But speaking of which, although this guy is now the director of the Shandong Film and Television Production Center, everyone is almost the same age as Xiaodouding.
"Okay, then you can do it. If you have any questions, ask Brother Gao for advice, he is a good hand at TV dramas. ”
