201 Don't waste my money

But because there were so many strangers at the scene, Chu Yunji had not completely lost his mind, so he naturally would not act impulsively.

——

After drinking and eating, at the signal of Shen Xiao, Tu Xing took the two into the inner room, closed the door, and isolated the noise on the dinner table.

The middle room is a small meeting room, which is perfect for conversation.

The three of them sat down separately, and Tu Xing couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Shen, Mr. Chu, I don't know how the two of you decided about changing the director?" I have read the script, and I am confident that I will shoot it well, as long as the two of you can give me a chance, ......

Shen Xiao raised his hand to interrupt Tu Xing, signaling him not to be too anxious.

She said slowly: "Director Tu, I believe you can make a good youth idol drama, but our script is not a TV drama script, it is a movie script." ”

Slayer suffocated for a breath.

This is the fact that he is most unwilling to face, and it is also the fact that he is most afraid of being discovered by Shen Xiao and Chu Yunji, originally he didn't want to mention it, because he was afraid that Shen Xiao and the others would have doubts about it, but now Shen Xiao brought it up, proving that Shen Xiao had also worked hard in this regard, Tu Xing wanted to fool her, but I was afraid that it would not be easy.

"It's ...... It's a movie script......"

Tu Xing said sneeringly: "I know that my previous two movies were not popular, and the two of you will definitely have doubts." However, I can really make movies in the youth idol category! You can take a look at some of the short films I have made before, all of which are in this category and are also popular on the Internet!"

"Director Tu, in fact, there is another very important reason why we are looking for you. Shen Xiao said indifferently: "I heard that your previous two movies were made on a small budget. ”

“…… Yes, it is. Because I really didn't have any money, I had to do my best. When filming the dream of love, I really racked my brains to find a way to save money, because I wanted to save money for special effects, so the actors invited were not very famous, and they couldn't bring the box office ......"

"Dream of Love" is really a permanent pain in Tu Xing's heart.

The script is good, the idea is profound, and the shooting is also in place, but just in time for the traffic era, he was rushed by the traffic fresh meat, and his box office was rushed to pieces, which was miserable.

However, in niche circles, "Dream of Love" has a high rating.

But on the surface, "Dream of Love" is still a film that is neither popular nor popular. It once knocked Tu Xing's directorial career into the abyss, and later with "The Death of the Swan", Tu Xing found a little bit of a scene, but it was not much better, and he was still hanging half-dead.

and then in the later "A Thousand Impossible Reasons", it became a solid hit, but the follow-up effects brought by it were not what Tu Xing wanted.

He didn't want to make a TV series.

He just wants to make a movie!

Tu Xing's expression involuntarily dimmed.

Shen Xiao suddenly said: "I like directors who will save money." Director Tu, if you can do your best to save me money, then I assure you that there will be more cooperation like this in the future. ”

Tu Xing was stunned.

"Mr. Shen, what do you mean......?" Tu Xing showed a smile that was more ugly than crying: "You just fancy my ability to save money?"

"Yes. ”

Shen Xiao looked him in the eye without flinching: "I don't like others to mention artistry to me, because everyone has their own artistic concept, and they can't distinguish between the superior and the inferior." But in business, for me, the most important quality of a director is not to waste the money I give, and the second thing is to see if he can make good works. ”

Shen Xiao lowered his eyelids and gently smoothed the folds of his pants on his knees: "If others spend hundreds of millions of dollars to make a movie, you can make it with tens of millions, then why should I choose someone else and not you? But if you waste my money, your art won't have a second chance to bloom. Is this relationship understood?"

Tu Xing was completely stunned.

He looked at Shen Xiao's cold face in a daze, he really couldn't imagine that a woman who was so beautiful that she could say such cold words.

Shen Xiao ignored Tu Xing and went on: "But Tu Dao shouldn't think too snobbishly. I don't like to waste money, but if there's a real need for money, I'm not stingy. I know that the film industry is a faucet nowadays, and everybody wants to make it bigger and bigger, so that the water can flow so that they can reap the benefits of it. However, this will not make a good movie. I need someone to help me screw the faucet small, someone to put every penny to work. Director Tu, if you can do this, I can assure you that if there is a similar cooperation in the future, I will definitely be the first to consider you. ”

Tu Xing looked at Shen Xiao in a daze, his eyes blinked, and then slowly blinked.

He seemed to understand.

"I understand what Mr. Shen means. ”

Tu Xing was silent for a long time, and replied solemnly: "I can assure you, Mr. Shen, that every penny you spend will be used on the blade, and I will screw this faucet for you, it's not a problem! But you also have to give me a promise, when the movie really needs money, you can't do everything you can to shirk it." ”

Shen Xiao chuckled: "Director Tu, do you know what industry I do? As long as you are a person who works with your heart, I will never treat you badly. You can go to FancyArt's website to see that the resident painters on our platform are the most nourishing painters in the world, as long as they are done with their hearts and done well, none of them will not be able to make money, and all of them will gain fame and fortune. So, Director Tu, you have to trust me. I have never taken art lightly, and I also know that art costs money, and it costs a lot of money. What I just told you is not that I want you to dance with your hands and feet tied, I want you to give me a clear attitude, let me rest assured, let me know that my money will not run away in vain. ”

Tu Xing completely understood.

He nodded vigorously: "No problem, Mr. Shen." If you want, I will be able to do it. When it comes to saving money, I've really been trained. The production cost of Dream of Love and Death of the Swan does not exceed 20 million, which is really very saving!"

"That's good. ”

Shen Xiao narrowed his eyes and smiled happily: "Then the next movie, please leave it to you, Director Tu." ”

As she spoke, she held out her right hand.

Tu Xing carefully looked at Shen Xiao's hand and shook it solemnly.

"Please give me more advice in the future, Mr. Shen. ”

Chu Yunji sat on the side, silently watching the two reach a consensus at a very fast speed, he didn't say a word, and handed over the whole process to Shen Xiao to negotiate.
