Chapter 0128 - The First Gift (Ask for Subscription)
After reading the contract and signing the sale, it was close to four o'clock in the afternoon.
"We'll have a meal together, the family is not full today, and I'll introduce you to you next time." ”
"Good. ”
Zhou Xiyan took a look at Zhang Fan, the general manager of Xitian's film company.
Xitian Pictures has not been established for a long time, and after the transformation into an artist agent, film and television production has stagnated. With the improvement of business conditions in the past two years, he began to rebuild his own film and television production platform.
At present, Xitian Pictures has not produced its own films - most of them are making some investments in the mode of participating in the works of its artists.
"Ji Ming, first of all, I am very happy that we are now a family, and I hope that we will have a happy cooperation and harmonious relationship in the future. Zhang Fan kept holding a notebook in his hand, which looked like a script, but the cover was all white coated paper, and he couldn't tell what it was.
Ji Ming smiled and nodded: "Please take care of Mr. Zhang in the future." ”
"Just call Brother Zhang, don't go outside," Zhang Fan paused, and raised the notebook in his hand: "Guess what this is?"
"Script?"
"Haha, it's a script, can you guess what script it is?"
"Film and television scripts?"
“......”
Zhou Xiyan laughed and pressed the back of the seat to rattle: "Zhang Fan, you can't play this with him in the future, he will make you angry." ”
Ji Ming's eyes widened: "Isn't it a film and television script?"
Nonsense, can it still be a drama script, and the drama Xitian can't care about it.
Zhang Fan had no choice, so he handed it to Ji Ming directly.
"The Far Side of Ah Lang".
"Huh?" Ji Ming was really surprised this time: "What does this mean?"
Zhou Xiyan stood up: "I heard that you seemed to be particularly interested in this book that day, so I went to find out, this is a big online movie project of Penguin Films, the investment is not large, and the team is relatively average." I'll be blunt, if you're interested, we can get it. But—"
"But I don't think this script is particularly outstanding," Zhang Fan took over: "There are also some IPs within the company, some script reserves, I think you might as well take a look at other books, and think about it again? Mr. Zhou values you very much, and he is also very good, so he specially strives for this opportunity, but if it is not so good, it may not be necessary." ”
Ji Ming heard it.
Zhou Xiyan heard him say that "The Far Side of Ah Lang" was good, and it was estimated that it would not be particularly difficult to fight, so he wanted to regard this movie as the first work signed by Ji Ming - the investment is controllable, and the penguin has also been preparing for a period of time, which is relatively mature.
Zhang Fan's meaning is that he thinks that Ji Ming has never seen anything on the market, and a script that is not very good is broken by Zhang Fei.
"What does Brother Zhang think of this book?"
Ji Ming pondered for a while, his wish repayment task of "making an official movie" was not completed after "God of Medicine", obviously that big dragon set is not counted. That "Ah Lang" is so full of peaks and turns, it seems that it is really possible to become his first movie.
"Ji Ming, we will cooperate for a long time in the future, although Mr. Zhou is only willing to sign with you for three years," Zhang Fan was full of resentment: "So let's communicate directly." This book has its strengths.,It's very fresh.,The story narration is not anxious.,There's not so much fireworks.,It's really rare.。 But it must be said,It's definitely not a book without problems.。 ”
"I don't think you're right. ”
Directly, well.
"You say. ”
"You say it's not a book without problems.,I don't think that's accurate.,It's actually a book with a lot of problems.,Very serious book.。 ”
“......”
Zhang Fan opened his mouth, feeling that this unfolding was a little unexpected: "That?"
"Why do I think it's good?" Ji Ming flipped through the book, paused, and thought about the wording: "I can make an analogy, I think this book is like a girl with a refined temperament, but she is dressed in shabby and dirty clothes, she is not knowledgeable enough, her hairstyle is wrong, she can't wear makeup, but she does have a refined temperament and a beauty in her bones."
Do you find that even though the mountainous area of Qianyang, where Li Alang went to teach, is a poor and remote country, the children are not like in other similar movies, dirty, tattered, or the family has no money to go to school, it is not like that, they are dressed cleanly, and even can sing very good Dong folk songs, and the scenery of the Dong village is also beautiful and picturesque.
The teacher who wrote this script was very willing to cut off many of the existing images, so it is very pure and smooth, like a female portrait of Ingres, which can maximize the beauty of the subject itself. ”
Ahh
Ji Ming has a lot of thoughts about "The Distance of Ah Lang", and he has imagined more than once what he would do if he acted by himself, or even changed the book by himself. But Zhang Fan and Zhou Xiyan really didn't expect to hear such a series of tirades from Ji Ming.
“...... Do you think it would be better for this girl to show her unearthly temperament? Let's go to Chinese opera, haha, or Nortel, and find a ready-made beautiful girl?"
Ji Ming didn't answer, but Zhou Xiyan said it.
"Temperament is a thing that is hard to find. ”
Zhang Fan said "hey", nodded and nodded: "Okay, okay, then in this way, I'll find a few screenwriting teachers, Ji Ming, you can come too, let's communicate about this book tomorrow, if the teachers, Mr. Zhou, and Ji Ming, you think this book can be done, then do it, after all, it may be the first book made by the film company itself." ”
"I wouldn't be particularly grateful to you for saying that you were testing the waters so refreshingly. ”
"Hahaha. ”
Who will take the first step to go two meters and not be afraid of pulling the egg?
"Okay, I'll come over tomorrow morning - but its main creator has been confirmed, and it's going to open Qianyang in a few days, now let's plug in, isn't it a bit of a yellow storm?"
"I've talked to Penguin's friends, the initial investment is not much, and it's not all unusable, if we really participate in the later stage, they are completely fine - after all, this is a secondary project for Tencent Video. ”
Is it so smooth?
Ji Ming rubbed the koi on his wrist and was seen by Zhou Xiyan.
"You have a tattoo?"
"Birthmarks. ”
“...... Will I believe it? You carp spirit reincarnated?"
Ji Ming turned his wrist over to show her.
"Oh, the birthmark and the golden scales, it seems that you were still a carp spirit with a background in your last life, maybe it was the one in the pool of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and you also participated in the large-scale live performance of "Journey to the West". ”
Ji Ming suddenly thought of that night, his face was a little hot, and he cleared his throat: "It's really a birthmark, you see, it can't be washed off." ”
"Forget it, if you don't want to wash it, cover it up. ”
Ji Ming was telling the truth, he later went to the tattoo shop to show the boss, the koi fish are very similar to tattoos on the surface, but they are indeed the same as the nature of birthmarks, and they can't be washed off unless they go for laser surgery.
"Where did you get the tattoo? The technique is pretty good. Zhou Xiyan took a closer look.
"My mom is in the belly. ”
“...... You're quite persistent in talking nonsense. ”
Daniel Qin said
"Ah Lang's Far Place" is available on Tencent Video, if you are interested, you can go and see it, I think there are a lot of problems, but it is really good.
