Chapter 784: Progress on both sides
Sun Quan was shocked to realize that he had been silent for a long time just now, and even reported the names of several directors he had just found to Xue Zihan.
After reporting a few names, he asked: "Sister Xue, have you heard of all the directors I just mentioned?"
Xue Zihan: "I've heard of three of them, and the other few are a little familiar, but I can't remember them for a while, why don't you tell me what films they have made?"
Sun Quan: "Let's call Brother Shang Zheng and Sister Juan tonight, let's have another video conference, when the time comes, the four of us can propose a few director candidates, and then we will discuss it again, do you think it's okay?"
Xue Zihan: "This ...... Okay, let's talk about it later, then?"
Sun Quan: "Well, you can notify them when you go back, make an appointment with them, and then tell me." ”
Xue Zihan: "Okay!
......
In the video conference that night, everyone proposed one or two, or two or three directors' names, and then after some discussion, three directors who were more suitable for filming "This Daddy is Extraordinary" were selected.
One of them is the director of "Daddy Run" proposed by Sun Quan.
As for the specific invitation to contact the three directors, it will be handed over to Xue Zihan.
A few days later, news came from Xue Zihan's side that one of the three directors had no schedule this year, and the other two had to read the script first.
Xue Zihan asked Sun Quan if he could temporarily send her the part of the script that had been written, and she would hand it over to the two directors for review.
Look at the beginning of the script to see if it can arouse the interest of those two directors.
Sun Quan didn't immediately say yes or no, but first contacted Dayu and asked Dayu how much of the script has been written so far?
Dayu told him that only the first three episodes of the script have been completed.
Sun Quan asked him to send him the revised script outline and the content of the three episodes, he read it himself and felt that there was no problem, so he contacted Xue Zihan and sent her the script outline and the script of the first three episodes, and asked her to try the attitude of the two directors.
In this way, a few days later, news came from Xue Zihan's side again.
The two directors are quite satisfied with the outline of the script and the content of the first three episodes, and are interested in further negotiations.
The director of "Daddy Run" hopes that the complete script will come out as soon as possible.
Another director asked for a two-sided talk to discuss the specific conditions of cooperation.
Sun Quan actually likes the director of "Daddy Run" - Gao Yigong.
This director was proposed by him before, which is one reason on the one hand, and on the other hand, the drama "Daddy Run" can also be said to be a daddy TV series.
The difference is that the children in this drama are slightly older, the age of elementary school.
But this drama made a good impression on him back then.
Some lines in the play, he thinks it's funny and funny.
To this day, he still remembers a conversation between the male protagonist and his divorced wife in a taxi in the first or second episode.
Of course, he couldn't remember the full conversation, but he still remembered the general meaning.
He remembered that in the taxi at that time, the hero's wife had filed for divorce from the actor, but because of the education of their common son, the wife was not the one who fell behind the hero.
It probably means that if your son grows up to be like you, it will be difficult to find a wife in the future.
And the actor's casual retort was: "Who said it was difficult for me to find a wife?
In a word, the wife who was about to divorce him was annoyed and speechless.
But Sun Quan in front of the computer and the taxi driver in the play made him laugh.
Well, Sun Quan watched the drama on the computer at the beginning.
When he watched that show, he had already missed the premiere time of that show, which should have been a few years after the premiere, so he didn't know what the ratings and reputation of that show were when it first premiered.
But he watched the show from beginning to end, and many funny lines in the play were blurted out by the male protagonist.
So, the funny part of that show is hilarious.
But when it's touching, it's also touching.
For example, the daily life between the male protagonist and his son, what impressed Sun Quan was that after the male protagonist was called to school by his son's homeroom teacher, after the male protagonist came out of his son's homeroom teacher's office, when he taught his son, he repeatedly asked his son why he didn't do his homework?
(The reason why the male protagonist was called by his son's homeroom teacher was because his son didn't hand in his homework that day.) )
When teaching his son, the actor's attitude is very strict, and he is completely a strict father who is responsible for his son.
And his son was questioned by him several times, taught for a while, and kept silent about the reason why he didn't hand in his homework, like a naughty and mischievous but stubborn bear child who didn't admit his mistakes.
The son's attitude angered the actor.
The rhetoric is getting harsher and more ferocious.
But in the end he cried.
Because his son couldn't stand being taught by him, he was forced to finally tell the reason - "Because you haven't given me the homework book, I've told you a few times, my homework book is used up, my homework yesterday was written on the cover of the homework book, and I ......really can't write it today."
It was the poorest period for the father and son, and the actor was so poor that he couldn't afford to buy a homework book for his son because of bad luck.
At that time, when Sun Quan watched this plot, he was really moved.
I feel bitter for this father and son, and I am also moved by my son's understanding.
The son knew that the reason why he didn't hand in his homework was on his father, but in order to take care of his father's feelings, he endured his father's lessons, and only when he couldn't bear it anymore did he tell the truth aggrievedly.
In that drama, in fact, the son of the male protagonist has a better choice.
The son's mother-in-law, the hero's wife, has always wanted to take her children to live and go to school abroad, and as long as her son is willing to go with her, he can live without worry.
But the son is reluctant to be with his father, in order to be with his father forever, at a young age, he is willing to share the joys and sorrows with his poor father.
Sun Quan still remembers a plot in it...... The son weakly begged the male protagonist to let his father not abandon him, saying that he was very good to feed, he didn't eat much, and he didn't spend money indiscriminately......
There were not many episodes in that series, but they left a deep impression on Sun Quan.
The whole drama is either funny or touching, of course, there is also dog blood, in Sun Quan's opinion, the most bloody part of the drama is the bad luck of the male protagonist.
It's simply a decaying possession, which can be summed up in one sentence: drinking cold water stuffed between your teeth, and farting smashed your heels.
But the ending of that drama is very good.
Because of the funny, touching and other essences in the play, Sun Quan feels that the bloody part of the drama is also bearable.
This is also the main reason why he thought of the director of that drama when Xue Zihan asked him about the director of the show.
He felt that Gao Yigong, the director of that drama, was capable in filming this type of TV series, and the funny and sensational parts were well assembled.
......
He is very happy that Gao Yigong is interested in "This Daddy is Not Ordinary", but Gao Yigong has not yet made it clear that he is willing to take over the filming of this drama, and he still wants to read the follow-up script before he can decide, and he has not yet negotiated with Salted Fish Film and Television on the directing conditions.
This made Sun Quan a little worried.
Although he is confident in Dayu's ability to write screenplays, Dayu is not a professional screenwriter after all, and he usually has a formal job, and he still has a book to write at the starting point, which leads to Dayu's speed of writing scripts.
Sun Quan was a little worried that Gao Yigong didn't have the patience to wait for the full script of this drama.
After all, famous directors generally have no shortage of investment and scripts in the film and television industry.
Sun Quan even thought about taking over the job of screenwriter himself and writing the script himself.
But thinking about it dispelled the thought.
First, he has handed over this job to Dayu, the outline of the script, Dayu has spent time and effort to write, and is currently writing the script, if he Sun someone takes the script back at this time, what is the matter?
What will Dayu think?
Secondly...... He really didn't have much time to write the script himself.
If he writes this script himself, his mind will inevitably be scattered, and the serialization of the original work of "This Daddy is Not Ordinary" at the starting point will inevitably be affected, and the quality of the original work may also decline.
Otherwise, he would not have asked Dayu to adapt this script.
Helpless, he could only tell Dayu about his worries, hoping that Dayu could take more time out of this script recently, even if he couldn't complete the entire script in a short period of time, even if he just wrote more than ten or twenty episodes?
Maybe Gao Yigong was moved after reading the script for more than ten or twenty episodes?
After all, the three-episode script that was sent to Gao Yigong before...... It's too short.
Dayu is a good comrade.
After listening to Sun Quan's worries and thoughts, he gave Sun Quanzi and promised to squeeze out as much time as possible in the near future to speed up the writing of the script, and he would give Sun Quan the content of the script for twenty episodes as soon as possible.
Sun Quan relaxed a little, and then turned around and discussed with Xue Zihan, asking her to find a way to maintain a good relationship with Gao Yigong in the near future, and try to make Gao Yigong feel the sincerity of their salted fish film and television, so that he can be patient and wait as much as possible.
As for the other director, Sun Quan did not prevent Xue Zihan from negotiating with the other party on the conditions of directing.
In case Gao Yigong is unwilling to direct this drama in the end, another director is also a good choice.
That director was recommended by Wang Zheng.
In the film and television industry, he has also had good results, and his qualifications are not shallow.
......
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
Just when Sun Quan was worried about the director of "This Daddy is Not Ordinary", the headhunting company that his daughter-in-law Yuan Shuiqing had found before finally came with good news.
There is progress on the part of the headhunters.
With the efforts of the headhunting company, the master's degree from the Department of Finance of Peking University finally got excited and was interested in jumping ship to do 99 food delivery.
A few days later, Lu Dong, the vice president of Ele.me, was also moved by the headhunting company and was willing to contact 99 Yellow Braised Chicken to discuss the specific conditions for changing jobs.
For this reason, Sun Quan deliberately took two days to accompany his daughter-in-law Yuan Shuiqing to meet the two talents.
The middleman is, of course, a headhunter.
After some interviews, the candidates were finalized.
- Lu Dong!
Sun Quan and Yuan Shuiqing jointly decided to hire the vice president of Ele.me to be the CEO of 99 Food Delivery Company.
The tentative annual salary is 500,000 yuan.
and a 3% stake.
The annual salary of 500,000 yuan can't impress Lu Dong, and it is not as high as Lu Dong's original annual salary, but 3% of the shares successfully impress him.
3% of the shares, although not much.
But it means that he came to 99 Food Delivery Company as the CEO, and he is no longer just a salaryman, he is a shareholder.
After the official signing, Lu Dong quickly resigned from Ele.me, and then came to M City, taking the 50 million invested by Sun Quan and Yuan Shuiqing in the early stage, and officially established the 99 food delivery company.
The company's headquarters is located in the 99 Building.
Together with the headquarters of 99 Yellow Braised Chicken.
Anyway, the 99 building is tall and big enough, and the 99 yellow stewed chicken can't use such a large area.
......
99 Meals was officially established.
Part of the script of the twenty episodes of Dayu's side was finally written.
It was more than eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, and Sun Quan's last chapter of the day was almost finished, and he was about to go home to wash and sleep when he finished writing, and suddenly received a call from Dayu.
The moment the phone was connected, Sun Quan first heard Dayu's yawning voice.
Then I heard Dayu say: "Alas, in order to earn your 500,000 yuan, but I am exhausted, the twenty episodes of the script you want, I just finally got it for you, you QQ is not online, right? I sent you a message on QQ for more than ten minutes, you didn't reply to me, I have already sent you the script, you can go online and receive it yourself!ah...... I'm going to sleep, and I'm going to work tomorrow! You have received the script, let's read it first! If you think there is a problem, you can leave me a message directly on QQ, and I will read it after work tomorrow, and after that, I will take the time to revise it for you, well, that's it, do you still have any problems? If there is no problem, I will hang up! Recently, I have not slept enough every day, and the dark circles under my eyes are often with me, and my daughter-in-law has called me a panda...... Hehe. ”
As soon as he heard him speak, Sun Quan still wanted to make a joke.
But listening to it, Sun Quan dispelled the idea of joking, and listened to Dayu until he finished speaking, and then said with a smile: "Okay, good brother! It's hard, go to sleep! If it's not a big problem, I'll revise it myself, and you can go and sleep well tonight, and we'll talk later." ”
Dayu: "Okay! Then say so, please! Kneel down! ”
It's rare, this time I heard him kneel down, Sun Quan didn't scold him, he laughed twice and hung up the phone.
Log on QQ and receive the script sent to him by Dayu.
Sun Quan was not in a hurry to go home and sleep, anyway, he didn't have to go to work during the day, and his time was free.
If Dayu didn't send him this script tonight, it would be okay, he could go home to wash and sleep with peace of mind, but since Dayu had already sent the script.
If he doesn't watch it tonight, even if he goes home, he won't be able to sleep.
I always remember the script in my heart, how can I feel sleepy?
I know this bad problem by myself.
......
Time passed quietly, and it had already entered the wee hours of the morning, and all the lights in the salted fish studio had long been extinguished, except for Sun Quan's office on the second floor.
In front of the computer, Sun was still sitting there staring at the computer, looking at the script sent to him by Dayu little by little.
Like a midnight ghost.
The expression on the face changes from time to time as the content of the script changes.
Like a fool.
