Chapter 865: Think Carefully
In fact, Jiang Wen can't help it, filming is not much different from doing business, for directors, asking for a sky-high price is what they have to do, and for investors, sitting on the ground and paying back the money is their only magic weapon.
In normal times, if Jiang Wen is filming for others, Zhao Fusheng will definitely support him without saying a word, let alone 10 million, Zhao Fusheng will even help with ideas, so that Jiang Wen's filming funds can get more.
But the problem now is that Jiang Wen plans to let Phoenix Film and Television invest.
To put it bluntly, it was from their own pockets, and Zhao Fusheng certainly couldn't allow him to waste it.
The ass determines the head, no matter what it is, if you want to see a person's way of doing things, as long as you put yourself in the person's shoes and consider the person's starting point, you can understand what he will do.
Just like the current Zhao Fusheng, as a member of the investor, he will not allow Jiang Wen to spend tens of millions of dollars to make a "Looking for a Gun" at every turn.
"Five million at most, and it has to be funded by three companies. Zhao Fusheng raised his finger at Jiang Wen and said flatly.
Jiang Wen frowned: "Five million, it has to be three companies?"
Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with this condition in Zhao Fusheng's mouth, to be precise, very dissatisfied.
After all, he is a dignified actor, and although Lu Chuan is a newcomer, it is not simple, with the blessing of his father's relationship, he only gave five million shooting funds, Zhao Fusheng is simply a representative of the door.
Glancing at him, Zhao Fusheng said angrily: "Our Phoenix Film and Television is going to give out a part, I can persuade the future Film and Television to take some, and the rest will naturally let Hua Yi come forward." Old Jiang, after all, your contract is on Huayi's side, unless you plan to leave in the future, there is still no need to make too much trouble with them. ”
Jiang Wen was silent for a moment, his relationship with Hua Yi was very complicated, and now his brokerage contract was on Hua Yi's side, but it was about to expire. The Wang brothers intended to renew the contract, but Jiang Wen didn't think about it so much.
When I signed Huayi, it was to support my friends, after all, when Huayi started to do film and television in 98, there were no stars under it, Jiang Wen went over, and he supported them in the scene.
And now, Hua Yi can be described as strong in the domestic film and television industry, even Wang Jinghua's woman began not to take Zhao Fusheng in her eyes, violated the agreement with Zhao Fusheng at the beginning, and began to fool Fan Baobao, which shows Hua Yi's prestige in the domestic private film and television industry at this moment.
Therefore, Lao Jiang's idea is very simple, after the end of the play "Looking for a Gun", he is ready to leave Huayi.
He didn't tell anyone about this, but he didn't expect Zhao Fusheng to see it.
Of course, Zhao Fusheng didn't see it, he guessed it based on the memory in his head. After all, in his memory, Jiang Wen seems to have parted ways with Hua Yi later, although this matter is normal in the entertainment industry, but for Zhao Fusheng, this is a good opportunity.
"Okay, you're right, let's get together and disperse. Jiang Wen was silent for a moment, and suddenly said to Zhao Fusheng.
Zhao Fusheng smiled, he knew that Jiang Wen must have already planned to leave Huayi.
But now that Jiang Wen is still in Huayi, he naturally can't speak to solicit the other party, and the friendship between the Wang brothers and Jiang Wen is okay, and some words are too eager, but they fall behind.
"But then again, do you think the script is okay?" Jiang Wen quickly shifted the topic to the script and asked Zhao Fusheng.
Zhao Fusheng nodded: "It's pretty good, it's filmed, I think I can make money." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Wen's eyes lit up, there was no way, his recent life was actually not very easy, as a director filming "The Devil is Coming" almost made Hua Yi lose tens of millions, if it wasn't for Zhao Fusheng's idea to take it to foreign exhibitions and sell the overseas distribution rights, it is estimated that he would not even be able to recover the cost. When he was an actor, he participated in "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", but this play was released during the Spring Festival, and he was almost scolded to death.
In addition, he and a certain big director in the circle have also been spraying recently, and for a while, Lao Jiang has fallen into a low point in his life.
And now, Zhao Fusheng told him that the script of "Looking for a Gun" can and can even make money, which makes Jiang Wen a little moved.
"About investment, you can communicate with Ye Jing again, I don't think it's a big problem. Zhao Fusheng glanced at Jiang Wen and said slowly.
Jiang Wen nodded, he also knew that Ye Jing and Yu Feihong must be notified of this matter, after all, the company is not his and Zhao Fusheng's, according to the rules set before, at least three of the four partners must agree.
"Then your company, you will be in charge. Jiang Wen thought for a while.
Zhao Fusheng immediately said that there was no problem, and in the future, the film and television side would personally persuade Dong Chenxi and Bai Jie.
For him, there is no difficulty in this matter at all, after all, Future Film and Television is not the main investor, with Huayi Brothers in front, whether it is Future Film and Television, Phoenix Entertainment, at best, it is just soy sauce and some money to go in.
It is said that people are self-aware, this sentence is really not wrong, at least, in Zhao Fusheng's view, although the degree of entertainment in today's film and television industry is not as developed as in his previous life, it is still not a place where he and the future film and television can play casually.
Making money in a low-key manner is the abacus in Zhao Fusheng's heart.
After separating from Lao Jiang, Zhao Fusheng did not go home, but drove directly to the company.
"Why are you here again?"
Seeing Zhao Fusheng appear at the door of his office, Dong Chenxi asked in surprise.
"Looks like you're not welcoming me. Zhao Fusheng smiled, and he was not polite, he walked to the sofa and sat down, anyway, he didn't know him, he was always unkind.
Dong Chenxi was completely speechless about Zhao Fusheng's habit, put down the documents in his hand, walked to Zhao Fusheng and sat down, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
In her opinion, Zhao Fusheng has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and when she came to see herself today, there must be something.
Zhao Fusheng didn't talk nonsense, nodded and said: "Jiang Wen found me today, he has a notebook ......"
sprinkled a lot, Zhao Fusheng told him about the situation of "Looking for a Gun", and finally spread his hands: "The current situation is like this, if you are interested, let's invest a sum of money in it, if you are not interested, I will write back to him and let him study it himself." ”
"Hey, hey, what are you researching, I'm interested, of course I'm interested. Dong Chenxi hurriedly stopped Zhao Fusheng, and said as if his eyes would glow: "You mean, Teacher Jiang Wen is very optimistic about this play?"
Zhao Fusheng thought for a while and nodded: "So to speak." ”
"Then invest. Dong Chenxi nodded and came to a conclusion directly.
