Yuan Heping once said to Xu Wangqiu that he was making movies for money, which was true. Xiangjiang is a commercial society, and making movies is for money. Now that he heard that there was an opportunity to make a lot of money, Yuan Heping naturally didn't miss it, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know how to cooperate?"

Yuan Xiangren didn't speak, but he also stared at Xu Wangqiu tightly, for fear of missing a word.

Xu Wangqiu didn't rush to speak, picked up the chopsticks and picked up a chopstick dish, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully. Yuan Heping and Yuan Xiangren were a little speechless, thinking to themselves, you can't eat it after you finish speaking! Xu Wangqiu chewed a few bites, and saw Yuan Heping and Yuan Xiangren looking impatient, and said with a smile: "There are two ways of cooperation, the first is that the two sides invest together, and share it according to the proportion of investment; the second is similar to the cooperation between you and Golden Harvest, we invest, you produce, and the copyright belongs to us after the film is finished, and we distribute it, and everyone shares the income obtained."

There are two ways to work together, with our investment. The first is that you, including the actors and crew of Xiangjiang, are not paid, and when the movie is released, you can get a 30% share, and you can share this money yourself. There is a certain risk in this way of cooperation, if the film loses money, there is not a penny. But if the quality of the movie seems to be a movie like "Falcon", it is entirely possible to earn thirty or forty million. The second is our investment, you have a salary, and after the movie is finished, you can get a 10% share. However, when it comes to filming, we send producers to manage the budget, and if the film budget is not spent, we have to take it back. This kind of cooperation is relatively safe, and there will be no embarrassing situation of making a movie but not having a penny, but if the movie hits the box office, it will definitely not make as much money as the other way. ”

Yuan Heping and Yuan Xiangren trembled violently in their hearts, this cooperation condition is too generous, it is unbelievably generous. Yuan Heping swallowed his saliva and said excitedly: "Wangqiu, don't you coax us, is this true or fake?"

Yuan Xiangren couldn't help but ask, "Do you have the final say on this matter?"

Xu Wangqiu leaned back, looked at Yuan Xiangren, then at Yuan Heping, and said lightly: "Let me introduce myself, in addition to being a director, I am also the acting director of the Art Center of the Film Export Company. This time, in addition to promoting "Falcon", he was also ordered by his superiors to go to Xiangjiang to announce the cooperation policy. Two days ago, I have negotiated with the famous director Li Hanxiang, and our company invested 20 million Hong Kong dollars to shoot two dramas "Listening to Politics with a Curtain" and "Burning the Old Summer Palace" by Li Hanxiang. Tomorrow morning, we will hold a press conference to announce this policy, and at the same time announce the news of Li Hanxiang's cooperation with us. Big Eyes, you are my friend, I know your ability and level. I think it's an opportunity to make a lot of money, that's why I'm talking to you about it. ”

Yuan Xiangren heard that Li Hanxiang agreed to cooperate with the export company, and hurriedly asked: "What kind of cooperation method does Li Hanxiang have with you?"

Yuan Heping also wanted to know what kind of cooperation Li Hanxiang had with the export company, but he didn't ask, but said with a sincere face: "It turns out that Wangqiu has been promoted! Then we must have a good drink today, and we must not get drunk and not return!" He beckoned to the waiter: "Bring me a bottle of Remy Martin!"

Xu Wangqiu hurriedly persuaded: "Don't take the wine, we can't finish this bottle." ”

Yuan Heping insisted: "That's not good, Wangqiu, you are the director of the art center, this is a great joy, and we must celebrate it well; besides, we don't want to cooperate, this is also a great joy, it is a double happiness, and it is impossible to say that you don't drink some good wine." ”

After waiting for Rémy Martin to bring it, Yuan Heping poured wine for Xu Wangqiu, and the two touched the glass and drank it all.

Xu Wangqiu took a bite of food, looked at Yuan Heping and said: "Our art center is responsible for the review of scripts and projects, like Li Hanxiang's project with an investment of tens of millions of dollars, after we review, the company's senior management will conduct a special review; Kung fu movies like the ones you made, the cost is not too high, and the cost of the kung fu film "Shaolin Temple" that Yindu is making is only 2 million Hong Kong dollars. If you're willing to work with us, then you can come and find it once you've written the script. However, I have high requirements for the script, and I will not relax my requirements just because you are friends with me, I must be responsible for the company and the country. ”

"That's for sure. Yuan Heping knew that there were many taboos in filming in the mainland, and he was worried that he would not be able to find someone to write the book, so he said, "Do you have any specific requirements for the script, and do you have any requirements for cooperating with you?"

Xu Wangqiu said with a smile: "Our requirements for the script are very simple, as long as it is patriotic, as long as it is positive, and we welcome films that can spread Chinese culture." Aren't you filming "Huo Yuanjia" recently, a story like this theme to promote the national spirit is fine. As for the requirements for cooperation, there are not too many special requirements, as long as you abide by the rules and regulations of the mainland. There is one main rule, that is, half of the cast and crew of the film must be from the mainland, including the leading actors. If the heroine is from Xiangjiang, then the actor must be a mainland actor. ”

Yuan Heping's Peace Pictures has been open for more than two years and has made several blockbuster films, but because Golden Harvest played the game of beating his left hand and his right hand, Peace Pictures could not get dividends and did not make much money. Cooperating with an export company can get a high share, and he is naturally unwilling to miss this opportunity.

If it is other people who are distrustful or hostile to the mainland, they may weigh it repeatedly, but Yuan Heping has cooperated with Xu Wangqiu, knows who Xu Wangqiu is, and also knows what kind of company the export company is.

Xu Wangqiu needs to establish Yuan Heping as a model of cooperation, so as to attract more Xiangjiang directors to cooperate with export companies, or join Yindu, and naturally knows everything about Yuan Heping. Because Peace Pictures had an agreement with Golden Harvest, and the films of Peace Pictures were invested and distributed by Golden Harvest, he suggested that Yuan Heping set up another company to cooperate with export companies.

The meal lasted a long time and lasted until ten o'clock in the evening. Xu Wangqiu beckoned, called the waiter over, took out his wallet and prepared to pay. Seeing this, Yuan Heping stretched out his hand to stop Xu Wangqiu: "Put the money away, and I'll pay for it." If you come to Xiangjiang, how can you make you pay? If you spread the word, others will laugh at me!"

Xu Wangqiu insisted: "Then how can I do it, I have a treat today, how can I make you pay?

Yuan Heping immediately said: "You came to me to cooperate, give me such a good opportunity, if I still let you pay for it, then I can really only find a piece of tofu and die!"

Yuan Xiangren also persuaded: "Yes, if you give us such an opportunity, if you still let you pay for it, you can't say anything." ”

When Xu Wangqiu saw them say this, he no longer insisted: "That's okay, when you come to Beiping in the future, I will invite you." ”

After eating more than 4,000 for this meal, Yuan Heping would definitely feel pain in his flesh if it was usual, but the opportunity to make a lot of money was in front of him, so he didn't take this little money in his eyes. After paying, Yuan Heping looked at his watch and said with a smile: "It's only ten o'clock, it's still early." It's hard for you to get to Xiangjiang, let's go to a nightclub to have fun, and I'll take you to see the sound and lust of capitalism. ”

Yuan Xiangren suggested: "Let's go to the Haicheng Restaurant nightclub, it is more lively, and many celebrities are singing and performing there, such as Xu Xiaofeng, Zhen Ni, and Luo Wen, they are all singing there." Now it's just in time for 11 o'clock. ”

Xu Wangqiu didn't know that the nightclub Yuan Xiangren said was different from the nightclub in his memory, it was a place to listen to songs and watch performances. Now the Hung Hom Stadium has not been repaired, and singers like Xu Xiaofeng hold concerts in nightclubs. Haicheng Restaurant Nightclub is the top nightclub, and many celebrities are proud to hold concerts here. He waved his hand and said, "We are disciplined, it's not good to go to that kind of place." In case it is seen by the pro-Taiwan media and hyped up, I'm afraid that I, the director of the art center, will not be able to do it. ”

Yuan Heping saw Xu Wangqiu say this, so he didn't persuade him again, and asked Yuan Xiangren to drive, ready to send Xu Wangqiu back to Yindu. Yuan Heping knew that when he met Xu Wangqiu, he would definitely have to drink, and it was easy to get into trouble when he was drunk driving, so he specially called Yuan Xiangren. During the meal, he drank a lot of wine with Xu Wangqiu, and Yuan Xiang did not touch a drop of wine.

Yuan Xiang trotted for a while and drove away, while Yuan Heping and Xu Wangqiu walked slowly outside the restaurant. The two walked out of Fulinmen and stood on the side of the road waiting for Yuan Xiangren to drive over.

Zhou Yanjian and Zhang Yaohua have been waiting for Xu Wangqiu outside with a few martial artists, and they have been waiting for more than four hours. Thinking that Xu Wangqiu was eating and drinking in Fulinmen, and he could only be outside and the northwest wind, they naturally gritted their teeth with hatred for Xu Wangqiu. Now seeing Xu Wangqiu and a tall, thin man wearing a hat coming out, Zhou Yanjian took a sip and scolded: "They came out, do it!"

Yuan Heping is worried about being recognized, because the Freedom Federation has issued a ban on the Xiangjiang film circle, whether it is a movie theater or a filmmaker, whoever dares to cooperate with Xu Wangqiu will be banned and will never be unblocked. Yuan Heping was worried about being recognized, so he dressed up in disguise, wearing a hat and sunglasses, and was not an acquaintance, so it was difficult to recognize. Zhou Yanjian and Zhang Yaohua joined Cheng's class on leave in 79, and they did not cooperate with Yuan Heping and did not recognize them. The other martial artists are all newcomers who have not been in the film industry for a long time, and they have not recognized them.

Xu Wangqiu and Yuan Heping were standing on the side of the road, chatting about kung fu movies, and suddenly instinctively felt the danger. He raised his eyes and saw six or seven strong men, walking towards this side with murderous vigour. Before he could react, he saw one of the strong men pointing at him and scolding: "It's this kid, I've been waiting for you for a long time, why don't you finally come out!"

Xu Wangqiu didn't expect that the other party really came to him, after all, he was either interviewed by the media in Xiangjiang in the past few days, promoting "Falcon", or discussing the co-production with the people of Yindu, and he didn't mess around outside, nor did he offend anyone. He thought that these people were mistaken, so he said, "Do you recognize the wrong person, I don't know you at all!"

Zhang Yaohua pointed at Xu Wangqiu and scolded: "Don't pretend to be confused, even if you turn into ashes, I know you! Even Brother Long's women dare to do it, I think you kid is tired of it!" As he spoke, Zhang Yaohua raised a foot and kicked Xu Wangqiu in the lower abdomen.

Yuan Heping was born as a martial artist, and he fought with people a lot before he became famous, and he knew that the other party was deliberately finding fault by listening to the tone of a few people. He didn't know why these people were looking for trouble with Xu Wangqiu, but Xu Wangqiu was his friend, and he was going to cooperate in depth soon, so it was impossible for him to let these people beat Xu Wangqiu in front of him.

Yuan Heping saw the other party make a move, raised his right leg and kicked Zhang Yaohua suddenly. Yuan Heping moved extremely fast, came first, and kicked directly at Zhang Yaohua, making him smack his legs two steps. Yuan Heping took a step forward, protected Xu Wangqiu behind him, took off his sunglasses, stared at a few martial artists, and said coldly: "Who are you, why are you looking for trouble with Wangqiu? Now make it clear, I can let you go!"
