Chapter 226: Don't let it
"Hey, Brother Xu, oh, oh...... I don't think you're telling you what you're saying, my sister-in-law has to let you shoot it, right? You really like it very much? Hahahaha! Okay, if you like it, I'll believe it. ”
On the way to see the house, he suddenly received a call from Xu Jingwei.
Before going out this time, Peng Xiangming sent the script to Xu Jingwei, the script of "Yanjing Meets Seattle". However, he didn't react after a few days, and Peng Xiangming guessed that he might still be a little twisted in his heart and didn't want to make such a simple romance film - the story is a good story, but for him, it may make him feel that this story is too simple and direct, not enough charm.
He has always preferred to shoot things that have ambiguous stories but are particularly stylish.
But what I didn't expect was that when I called a few days later, he actually said that he liked the story very much.
It doesn't matter, what he thinks in his heart, it's really hard to guess, and there is no need to guess, as long as the final result is that everyone works happily.
An Minzhi beside him had obviously pricked up his ears, but Peng Xiangming didn't plan to carry her back.
"Well, yes, I originally had some doubts about the setting of the heroine, but then I thought about it carefully, Xiao San'er's character is still not moving, it is precisely because she was originally a lover, and then she began to change her thinking and began to pursue her own love, true love, which can better prove the value of love...... Yes, once it is changed to this and that, it actually weakens the power. ”
"Uh-huh, yes, that's fine!
"Well, yes, I'm sure I'll invest! You're afraid that Mr. Tang has an opinion, right? What kind of contract did you sign with Fengxiang Film and Television? Well, well, yes, this is right, the contract is legally valid, but the favor is indeed there, so what do you want? Oh...... Oh, okay, okay! I'll talk to Mr. Tang about it. ”
After chatting for a while, I saw that the car had driven into a villa area, and finally hung up the phone.
An Minzhi asked, "Xu Jingwei, just the "Yanjing Meets Seattle" you said last time?"
Peng Xiangming nodded, "Well, before I went out this time, I gave him the book, it seems that he thinks it's okay, so I'll leave it to him, but I must be the first producer, and the company will also invest." If he honestly follows the script, I won't squeak, and if he goes off-topic, I won't do it. Friendship is friendship, business is business. ”
An Minzhi nodded when he heard this.
As a result, the car drove into a villa community, just stopped, everyone got out of the car, Peng Xiangming's mobile phone actually rang again, this time it was Tang Fengxiang.
Fast enough.
"Hey, Don is always good. ”
An Minzhi, under the leadership of the real estate agency manager, went to see the house, the assistant Fang Chengjun and the nanny followed, and Peng Xiangming stayed at the door of the villa to answer the phone.
"Xiang Ming, Jingwei said that after you read his book, you are not satisfied, you wrote him a version, this version of him himself said that he was very satisfied, I haven't read the script yet, he said that he has to ask for your consent to show it to me, but it doesn't matter, your book, I don't read it or not, let's work together, let's work together again?"
"Hahaha, of course, how do you want to cooperate?"
Tang Fengxiang on the other end of the phone, obviously with some tentative meaning, said: "The distribution right will be given to me, and the account will be divided according to the old rules? As for investment, I know that you are not short of money, and the investment in this film will not be too big, do you think this will work? How much budget do you need in total, you can just give me a little investment amount, how about it?"
Peng Xiangming smiled and said, "Uh...... Okay, just follow "Infernal Affairs"!"
Sure enough, the other party hesitated for a moment, and then said: "That's the case, Xiang Ming, I'm not greedy in terms of copyright, but I really want to share a little, you see?"
Peng Xiangming couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
I guessed it would be like this.
Although the box office of "Infernal Affairs" is now only three or four million a day, all the big-selling movies in the past are examples, as long as the theater here is launched, it can be launched on the video website in a turn, and it will definitely sell another wave - that is, there are so many people who are unwilling or do not have time to go to the cinema and like to watch it online.
And it's really cheap to watch online.
used to buy the permanent broadcast right of a movie for 10 yuan, but then it became 12 yuan, and now it is only 15 yuan, which is much cheaper than a movie ticket.
If you want to explode at the online box office, it is definitely impossible, but it will continue to be sold in a long stream, and the copyright owner of the big-selling movie will divide tens of millions of dollars a year as if it were fun, the box office of "Daming Serious Crime Team" is 3.4 billion, and the movie theater will go offline and get it to the video website, it seems that it only takes 70 days, and the online sales will break 300 million!
What a concept!
Without the sharing of the theater and the distributor, it is purely the share between the copyright owner and the video website, and the proportion that can be shared has been greatly increased - although it is impossible to get detailed online box office data, the industry generally estimates that the film has been on demand online on the Internet for more than three years, and the number of buyers should be about the same even if it is less than 100 million.
That's about 10 billion at the box office!
Earn the old nose!
The reputation of "Infernal Affairs" is particularly good, and once it is launched on online video sites in the future, it will definitely sell well!
Even if it may not be able to sell better than "Daming Serious Crime Team", but if it can sell 500 million in three years, it is still a net profit of 250 million - how much is the total investment!
There have been examples of "Infernal Affairs" before, and it is normal for Tang Fengxiang to think about taking a share of the copyright as well.
But from the very beginning, Peng Xiangming had already thought about it, and when it came to copyright issues, he would not give an inch.
So he said: "I'm not refuting your face, copyright is ......"
As soon as he began to speak, Tang Fengxiang over there immediately interrupted him and said directly: "It's okay, it's okay, for me, distribution is my business, and investing in me is just joining in the fun, you don't want to talk about copyright, let's not talk about it, how about it?"
It's so bright!
After a little temptation, I found that my attitude was slightly wrong, and I immediately retreated.
Just by doing the release of "Infernal Affairs", your brother has already made a lot of money, and you don't know how many movies have made a total profit.
In business, you can't stretch your hand too long.
Even a few catties of cabbage from our small merchant and hawker are also worried about you, I'm sorry!
As long as Tang Fengxiang doesn't worry about copyright issues, let his investment come in and share part of the benefits of the box office, which can be regarded as consolidating the foundation of mutual cooperation, Peng Xiangming has no opinion.
Of course, it's hello, I'm good, everyone.
After chatting with each other a few more words, the preliminary cooperation framework was finalized in a few words, and then the two sides sent people to contact each other to negotiate a specific contract, and then hung up the phone.
An Minzhi has already finished this small villa.
Looking at her demeanor, she looks indispensable.
That proves that you don't look at it much!
Peng Xiangming put away his mobile phone, walked around briefly, and asked the price, this small townhouse with an actual usable area of less than 300 square meters was sold for less than 8 million. Second-hand house, the original owner did not move in after completing the renovation, and held it in his hand for a few years, but he wanted to sell it again for some reason.
At this price, Lao An himself can afford it.
Peng Xiangming asked her what she meant, and she said: "I remember that it is quite far from the city, and the key is that the privacy you want, I am afraid there is no here." Even if you are walking in the neighborhood, your neighbors can see you!"
That's a big problem.
In fact, Peng Xiangming's original intention of wanting to buy a villa here was to ensure privacy.
So after thinking about it, he nodded, "Then take a look again, I'm not in a hurry to buy it anyway." ”
An Minzhi nodded.
At this time, the manager of the real estate agency suddenly came up and said: "Hello Mr. Peng, when your assistant contacted me before, I didn't know that you were going to buy a house, so the choice of this house may be biased, but we still have a lot of houses in our hands, and there are some particularly good single-family villas and manor villas, you see if you have time......
"Oh, that's it, that's ......"
Before Peng Xiangming's words were finished, the mobile phone suddenly rang again.
He took out his mobile phone and saw that it was Cheng Yigui.
This guy has rarely taken the initiative to contact Peng Xiangming, that is, after Lao An resigned, he began to report to Peng Xiangming instead.
"Hey, Lao Cheng. ”
Peng Xiangming walked away a few steps, away from the real estate manager, before answering the phone.
"Boss, just now the Southern Television Network called and contacted us, saying that the start date has been set, just on January 13th, and we must go over in advance to record a series of programs to cooperate with the publicity. ”
"Well, yes, January 13th...... Okay, then you can take care of this, gather the actors, you personally lead the team, and go over to cooperate with them. ”
"Okay! It is...... Uh, if I leave again, the company will ......."
Peng Xiangming sighed, "Okay, I know, I'll go back in the next two days." ”
"Oh, good!"
After hanging up the phone and coming back, Peng Xiangming said to the real estate manager: "I ask for a better environment, a detached house, and better privacy, you can help me keep an eye on the listing first, and I can come back to see the house in a few days." ”
When the man heard this, he immediately agreed.
............
In the afternoon of the same day, Peng Xiangming took his assistant and got on the plane back to Yanjing.
He is here to accompany An Minzhi, and his days are leisure, but it is impossible to live here all the time - it's okay to say that the album is going to be launched, anyway, he is not going to participate in any variety shows to promote, and more importantly, now it is the end of the year, one is to summarize, two to take inventory, and three to formulate and deduce plans for the coming year, film and television companies, music studios, and even brokerage companies all need him to be in charge.
But An Minzhi was certainly reluctant.
Her current mood is very happy when she says she is happy, she can be so happy like a little girl, but once she is unhappy, she will really cry - how old is a person, under normal circumstances, how painful and terrible things can she not bear to cry? Not to mention An Minzhi?
But she just cried when she said she cried.
Peng Xiangming had to comfort and appease her again and again, but in the end, he had no choice but to agree that she would follow the car all the way to the airport, so that he would not follow him into the waiting hall.
There was still a period of time before boarding, so Fang Chengjun was put down outside the waiting hall and went to check-in, while the driver Sun Dali was responsible for driving the car around the neighborhood casually.
In the car, Peng Xiangming held An Minzhi in his arms, helped her wipe her tears, and repeatedly promised that when she was done with this section, she would rush over to see her as soon as possible, so she slowly stopped crying again.
But until he waited for the plane, Peng Xiangming couldn't help but think: "Am I being too good to everyone now, is it good or bad for me to do this?"
But in the end, thinking about it came to nothing.
He had no choice but to sigh and simply put aside all these miscellaneous thoughts that made him irritable.
Yanjing's side, there are a lot of things waiting for him.
............
The start date of January 13, selected by the Southern Television Network for "My Love from the Star", is Monday, which can be said to be neither good nor bad.
It is not difficult to know with a simple estimate that there are not many episodes left of the drama that is currently being broadcast on their Channel 1, which means that there is one month left in the middle, which is just enough for them to broadcast a big drama with more than 40 episodes - as for which one, it is actually not difficult to find, because the preliminary publicity has definitely started now.
There's just no need to look it up.
Although the final edited version of "My Love from the Star" is 56 to 59 minutes long, which is definitely long in a daily drama, it was agreed at the beginning that the broadcaster will broadcast two episodes a day, that is, the entire drama has 21 episodes, which is only enough for two weeks and one day.
In other words, it's still early for the New Year.
It's still early for the Chinese New Year, which means that everyone's hearts have not been divided by things like the Spring Festival and going home.
If it is a hit, seize the time to negotiate the second round during the first round of broadcasting, and as soon as the first round ends, go directly to the second round, which is enough to finish the second round before the Spring Festival holiday.
The continuity of the heat and the duration of the continuation, is sufficient.
Considering that the Southern Television Network should release its annual financial report in mid or late January, as long as "My Love from the Star" can reach the expected broadcast popularity, then the stock price must be satisfactory.
............
At the end of the year, Mariana Film and Television Culture Communication Company and An Zhiyi Entertainment Agency are very busy, but Peng Xiangming Music Studio is the only one, which is still so kitten.
But in fact, there will be such a situation, just because the music studio is only responsible for music production, and the rest of the business has been completely divested.
It only takes care of the production, and doesn't care about the rest.
As a singer, Peng Xiangming, most of his affairs are managed by An Zhiyi Entertainment Agency - as the launch date of his first solo album "22" is approaching, in fact, An Zhiyi has already been busy.
Although the albums released by the other three singers under An Zhiyi this year have all become popular without exception, there is no doubt that this "22" album is the real highlight.
From top to bottom, no one dares to slack off.
