Chapter 375: The Storm and Clouds Are Surging
"Mr. Lu, we at Eagle Emperor Films agree in principle to shoot this game movie, and as for the specific details, we can sit down and discuss them carefully. Yang Shoucheng said.
"So, do I deserve an apology?" Lu Menglin asked with a smile.
"This?" Yang Shoucheng hesitated for a moment, and turned his face to glance at Director Yang next to him.
Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, and it doesn't matter if you lose face in front of your nephew, the key is to make money and have the opportunity to enter the mainland market.
"Okay! I apologize to Mr. Lu for my rudeness just now! The Eagle Emperor needs a partner like you very much, and I am personally willing to make friends with an excellent young man like you. Yang Shoucheng said with sincerity on his face.
He's a businessman through and through, as long as he has the opportunity to make a lot of money, what is such a thing as face?
"Very good, Boss Yang, then we are friends now. Oh, by the way, I have a good friend who took a fancy to a watch in a watch shop in Causeway Bay two days ago, and it seems to be your property, and he asked me to ask you, can you get a discount?"
Unexpectedly, this kid changed his words and actually talked about famous watches. Yang Shoucheng was stunned again all of a sudden.
However, he, Yang Shoucheng, is also a businessman who has been through the storm for a long time and has seen the world, so he laughed and said: "Mr. Lu doesn't have to see outside! Later, I will ask Director Yang to take you to Causeway Bay, take a fancy to that watch, and take it away! It will be regarded as my apology to Mr. Lu." β
"Okay, thank you in advance!"
Lu Menglin smiled slightly, and smiled at Xu Ling and Zhong Liying beside him: "The two of you will cooperate with the Eagle Emperor in the future, and you will cheer for our Boss Yang, and you will pick a famous watch later, but you can't be shabby." β
As soon as he heard this, Yang Shoucheng understood in his heart, this thing turned out to be a snake with a stick, and he came to me to fight the autumn wind!
But it's good to think about it! Since this kid loves to take advantage of small advantages, it can be regarded as a weakness, not afraid that you are smart, but afraid that you have no weakness. As long as there are weaknesses, they will be targeted in the future.
So, Boss Yang waved his hand and said, "Since we will all be a family in the future, there is no need to be so polite." Later, the two of them will also go to my store to pick a piece of each, which will be regarded as my Yang Shoucheng's meeting gift. β
"It is rumored that Boss Yang is generous and arrogant, and when I saw it today, it was really true! " Lu Menglin smiled with a smile.
Three famous watches, to say the least, will be hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, and this trip is really not in vain.
Of course, Lu Menglin and the others would not pick the treasure of the town store in other people's famous watch stores, otherwise Yang Shoucheng would not have sent that Director Yang to follow.
A few tables are trivial, but the key is to relieve anger!
The old Yang just now was fierce, so he was not arrogant, but he didn't work for a while, and he was fooled honestly by Lu Menglin
, obedient and profound, and sent a watch, this scene made Xu Ling and Zhong Liying stunned.
Sure enough, IQ is too important!, both of them silently thought in their hearts.
In fact, even Yang Shoucheng thinks it's a good deal, what is a few tables, just listening to what you just said, the concept of what big IP has benefited Boss Yang a lot, so he is willing to be so generous.
In the final analysis, the status of people is different, the realm is different, the way of thinking is not the same, and the things and results are naturally different.
In a later time, Lu Menglin basically finalized the cooperative relationship with the Eagle Emperor, with a contribution of 80 million yuan from Legend Culture, and the Eagle Emperor mobilized the screenwriter and creative team to invite directors and actors.
Although the lead actor is appointed by the legendary culture, the influence of the director is equally important, and the other actors in the film will try to use the best actors.
"Do you have any intentions about the director and the main actors?" asked Yang Shoucheng himself.
He never asks this kind of specific question, but when he learned that the other party was going to invest 80 million in this movie that would make sure he wouldn't lose money, Yang Shoucheng was shocked again.
He finally realized that the other party's handwriting was so big and bold that he obviously wanted to make an epoch-making work, and it was not as simple as trying to pull the Eagle Emperor to make a quick buck.
"If it's a director, I want Chow Xingchi to direct. Of course, it would be best if he himself was willing to participate. Lu Menglin said with a smile.
"Is this appropriate?" Yang Shoucheng was stunned again, he felt that the young man surnamed Lu was constantly impacting him today, wave after wave, almost never stopped.
Zhou Xingchi is undoubtedly the Hong Kong box office guarantee in this era, making a popular film, but he is also notoriously difficult, and many directors and actors stay away from him after working with him.
Because Zhou Xingchi is too devoted to his works, he is not humane, unwilling to compromise, and only serves the film, this kind of person is of course extremely professional, but at the same time he is also imperious.
It's hard to imagine what a movie like this one with such thorough involvement by the investor would be torn apart if it was directed by Zhou Xingchi!
"It seems that this kid is really a layman for movies! He only does things according to his preferences!" Yang Shoucheng secretly thought in his heart, and his vigilance against Lu Menglin weakened a little.
liking Zhou Xingchi's movies and working with him are fundamentally two different things.
When the book is used, there is little hatred, and I don't know how difficult it is. There are some things, Yang Shoucheng can't see through them, let the young people have a headache by themselves!
"Zhou Xingchi is very good at making movies, but he is good at comedy themes, and he may not be able to control such epic works. Director Yang next to him finally found a sense of presence and quickly interjected.
Lu Menglin tilted his head and said with a smile: "It's okay, I plan to hire the Hollywood production team to do the post-production, and I will ask Master Spielberg to be a consultant." I'm really looking forward to the collaboration between the two masters!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Director Yang was dumbfounded on the spot, but even Yang Shoucheng was speechless.
Looking at this posture, in the eyes of others, the Eagle Emperor is not so important! At best, he is a big housekeeper, helping to coordinate and execute, and the most important pieces have already been thought of.
"Ahem, ahem, young man, dare to think and dare to do, it's really good! Mr. Lu, you let it go! We, Eagle Emperor Film, will fully support you and make this legendary movie a real legend together!"
Yang Shoucheng hurriedly said in an ending tone.
He really didn't want to talk anymore, and if he continued to talk, he was afraid that he would be hit again and become unconfident.
......
and Liansheng, Kowloon Inner Hall.
A furnace of sandalwood has burned to a third of the time, giving birth to curling smoke.
There is a Buddha in front of the inner hall, and there is a Thai four-faced Buddha placed inside, laughing and scolding, all in the face.
In front of the Buddha, Uncle Bing knelt on the futon respectfully, with a humble expression.
"Grandpa Longtou, that's the way it is. The second master and they are still in prison, and the kid also said that he will fish them out within three months. β
Sitting opposite Uncle Bing was a lean old man, with a withered appearance, but a pair of eyes that were shining, terrifying.
This lean old man is the controller of Heliansheng, the big dragon head Ah Gong.
"That's fine. At most, this kid is just accumulating money, and he can't make any climate. We don't have to pay attention to him, just wait for his assets on Hong Kong Island to take shape, and then swallow them in one bite. The big dragon head Ah Gong said lightly.
"He thought he could take advantage of the general trend over there to suppress us, but he was still too naΓ―ve. If we and Liansheng were so easy to be fooled, how could we have today's scale. What kind of third layer realm, believe in him to have ghosts!" Uncle Bing said with a smile.
"Yes! When we joined forces with the British on Hong Kong Island, it was the real third layer of the realm of rivers and lakes. Spend a little money to buy a talisman, does he think we and Liansheng are really rare?"
"Understood! It's still Ah Gong's clever plan, let's pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, and when he collects money to a certain scale, we will swallow him, and let the 14K fools do it for us. Uncle Bing nodded repeatedly.
"Don't worry, wait for the second child to come back. Let the second child deal with him when the time comes. The big dragon head husband smiled.
"Gao Ming! So we're completely out of the way. That kid never dreamed that when the second child came back, it would be his unlucky day. Uncle Bing laughed.
