Chapter Ninety-Nine: How My Teacher Is
Did Zhang Pu suffer?
At least he thinks he's at a loss, and he's losing a lot.
There are so many classics in his mind, although there is no guarantee that every film will make money, the probability of losing money is absolutely small.
In this way, he did suffer a great loss.
But after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Pu smiled dumbly.
Xu Jiadong didn't know that he had the memories of two lifetimes, let alone that there were countless classic film and television works in his mind.
He took out 60 percent of the shares to pull Zhang Pu into the company, but in fact, he also took a big risk.
Without a little courage, this would not have been possible.
What's more, Zhang Pu also needs Xu Jiadong's connections and background to solve many troubles.
He knows very well that with his current connections, if he starts a company alone, it will be difficult for the company to run smoothly.
Shopping malls are like battlefields.
In his previous life, he was just an abandoned house, and in this life, he spent a lot of time on movies, and he didn't understand the many twists and turns in the mall.
Making a movie and starting a film and television company are completely different things.
He also doesn't want to be distracted by intriguing with people.
Then cooperating with a rich second generation with a deep background like Xu Jiadong seems to be the best choice.
What's more, people are amazingly bold and give 60% of the shares directly.
He Zhang Pu is just a newcomer who has just debuted, and the success of a movie doesn't mean anything at all.
Directly let you take the lion's lead, is there anything more sincere than this?
Repay the favor!
In this way, it is not a loss, but a combination of benefits for both sides.
In this way, Zhang Pu will take many detours and go further.
"Oriental DreamWorks? Wang Bo looked at the company's plaque and said to Zhang Pu, "Has the company's name been changed?"
"You said the name was good, why change it. Zhang Pu smiled, and went to the company as he spoke.
Although the company is small, it has all kinds of organs.
"Come, sit!"
"Brother Xu!"
"Brother Xu, you talk slowly, I'll take a walk outside. Wang Bo said with a smile.
Zhang Pu and Xu Jiadong both nodded.
Both of them had intentions, and the details of the negotiation were not wasted, and they were quickly negotiated.
Among them, the director's share accounts for the largest proportion.
Everything was negotiated, Xu Jiadong talked about the current situation of the company.
"The company has a contracted director?" Zhang Pu was a little surprised.
The name of this company is atmospheric, but it is indeed a small film and television company, which director would run such a small company?
I guess there is, I'm afraid it's also a newcomer who is not famous.
"I used to make TV dramas. Xu Jiadong said, "He has a good reputation in the TV industry, and he wants to enter the film industry, so I took the opportunity to dig it up, and then ......."
Xu Jiadong shook his head as he spoke.
And then what?
It is not uncommon for big-name directors of TV series to fail in the film industry, and those who are not famous, if they want to enter the film industry, it is a rare opportunity.
"Make an appointment and I'll talk to him. Zhang Pu thought for a while and said, "Actually, the risk of TV series is much lower than that of movies, and the profit may not be less than that of movies." ”
Zhang Pu doesn't plan to make a TV series, but it is undoubtedly too wasteful not to move out so many classic TV series in his mind.
I didn't have a chance before, but now that I have a company and I have the lion's share, everything will be solved.
"You mean the company is focused on TV dramas?" Xu Jiadong asked.
"Go hand in hand. However, we can start with small-budget movies and TV series. Wait for the company to have sufficient funds, and then increase investment. Step by step, lest a failure of a work break our muscles and bones, and the two of us have to pay for it. Zhang Pu said.
After taking a stake in the company, you will definitely have to pay for it, there is no doubt about it.
But Zhang Pu didn't want to dig it endlessly, and he didn't want to pay too much at once.
Of course, it is not necessary.
The reason why he doesn't play big investment is not because of the high risk, but because Zhang Pu doesn't feel that he can play big investment films at this time.
Even if there is the original version as a reference, once it is beyond his ability, then there is a high possibility of messing up.
Not to mention the greater risk, the most important thing is that Zhang Pu does not allow himself to make a classic film a bad movie after it is moved to this world.
When a porter fails, Zhang Pu can't accept it.
The company's contracted director is called Gao Wang, who looks nearly forty. He has filmed two TV series with good ratings and a good reputation. is not a big-name director in the TV industry, as Xu Jiadong said, he can only be regarded as good.
Otherwise, it would not be necessary to sign a contract with such a small company in order to make a movie.
The big-name directors in the TV industry are not as difficult to attract investment as they imagined when they enter the film industry.
Before Zhang Pu talked to him, he did some understanding in advance, especially the movie that lost a lot of money.
Movies lose money, not necessarily all of the director's pot.
Of course, the main responsibility is not to run.
Zhang Pu understands, but he just wants to see how good he is at directing and what genre he is good at.
However, there is no hurry.
The company's main thing now is his own new film.
And this film still needs to talk to Han Shan.
Since Han Shan opened his mouth, it was difficult for him to refuse.
"How is Mr. Han?"
Zhang Pu said with a smile.
"It's good!" Han Shan nodded and said.
This film is indeed a little less commercial than "Crazy Stone" as Zhang Pu said.
The plot of the film is not so ups and downs, or even a little bland, but I have to admit that this is a very touching movie.
If it can be touching, then it is a good movie.
The investment is not too big, and there may be risks, but what movie can guarantee that there is no risk?
It's a movie worth investing in.
"Who are you going to invite to play the role of the professor?" asked Han Shan.
This is undoubtedly a film in which the cast decides on the size of the investment.
If you invite big-name stars, the cost of the film is likely to double.
However, this film may not be able to attract big-name stars to join, even if Zhang Pu has "Crazy Stone" as a foundation.
The only character who makes this film really brilliant is actually that dog.
"What do you think of my teacher?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.
"Old Jiang?" Han Shan was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said, "Why do you want to find him?"
"Isn't it? He's just banned, not banned. Zhang Pu said, "I remember that my teacher also won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Supporting Actor, but I don't have to say anything about my acting skills." What's more, he is a professor himself, and he can be regarded as acting in his true colors. ”
"It's not a question of whether it's okay or not. He has to be willing!" Han Shan shook his head and said.
He didn't think Jiang Yun would star.
"Isn't his ban about to expire, it's good to warm up in advance!" Zhang Pu said.
When the movie is promoted, the protagonist is naturally one of the links.
"Nature is good. Han Shan said, "However, even if he is willing, I don't recommend that you invite him to play." Your teacher is a director, and he is a very assertive director. You're his student again, and you invited him to star, and after this movie is finished, do you think it's still your own work?"
Zhang Pu smiled, would he not have thought of it?
