Chapter 684: It's Not That Easy
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Xue Xiaolu would not have known the high hopes he had for Fat Di, Gu Limena and "Book of Swords and Enmity", Li Mo would really have to wonder if the other party had deliberately come to dismantle the stage for himself.
Take a look at the actors she chose for her script.
Basically, Li Mo's shooting plan is walking.
Liu Yifei and her have cooperated before, and the director always likes to work with actors who know his roots, which is normal;
But Fat Di and her had no intersection at all before, and this time she actually asked her to challenge an image that is so different from her previous roles, which can only be said to be 'true love'.
However, no matter how 'true love' Xue Xiaolu is, the trouble she threw to Li Mo is not small.
The first is the issue of actors' schedules.
After Liu Yifei finished filming "Adventures in Life", he originally planned to take a break for a while, Li Mo originally planned to let her play a gimmick with soft grinding and hard bubbles, and take Fat Di and Mei Na to toss out "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", so that the original time and space 'There is no white shallow after Yang Mi' will disappear completely......
The result is good, not only Liu Yifei has taken another step on the road of literary and artistic young women, but even her schedule for the first half of next year is basically over.
and Fat Di, the schedule originally planned by Li Mo for her was very perfect.
After filming the first part of "Book of Swords and Enmity" this year, I will take a break for a month or two, and continue to record the third season of "Let's Run" in the first half of next year, and then play Bai Fengjiu in "Three Lives and Three Worlds" in the second half of the year......
The result...... was also stirred up by Xue Xiaolu.
If according to Xue Xiaolu's expected shooting plan, after Fat Di finishes filming the first part of "Book of Swords and Enmity", he may only have a month to a month and a half of rest at most, and then he should devote himself to the filming of "July and Ansheng......
And this, obviously, will not work.
Although Li Mo didn't expect "Let's Run" to be popular for many years, at least in the first four seasons, he didn't plan to change MC.
Now "Let's Run" happens to be the most popular stage for the audience, according to the feedback from the market research department of Molong Media, among the audience's impressions of several MCs of "Let's Run", Fat Di, as the only female member, is the second most popular.
Although Fat Di's variety show sense is estimated to be the second-to-last among the seven people, she can't stand her good looks.
Tossing a group of big men Of course, there is no beautiful woman with good looks who falls into the water, and it is interesting to go on the finger pressure board and tear off the famous brand......
Do you want other people in "Let's Run" to cooperate with Fat Di's schedule?
How is that possible?!
Since Deng Chao finished filming "The Breakup Master", he is definitely a proper domestic first-line male star, although if Li Mo speaks in person, he will most likely still sell Li Mo a face, but this is clearly letting Deng Chao make way for Fat Di......
In public and private, Li Mo could not be so rash.
Xue Xiaolu must be asked to adjust the shooting plan!
After letting Feng Wen remember to remind Xue Xiaolu to adjust the shooting schedule, Li Mo first called several executives of the company together for a meeting.
With the rapid development of the mobile Internet, video conferencing, which used to require a computer to do, now only requires a mobile phone.
After informing Zong Shuai and others about Xue Xiaolu and the matter of "July and Ansheng", the reaction of several people was not as big as Li Mo expected.
After Li Mo proved it again and again, several people no longer had any doubts about his vision.
Although the script of "July and Ansheng" is obviously biased towards literature and art, if as Li Mo said, relying on the popularity of Liu Yifei and Fat Di, it should be no problem to recover the investment at a minimum.
"Now that Liu Yifei and Fat Di have been confirmed to play their respective roles, do they need to postpone next year's "Adventures in Life" and "Let's Run"?"
Zhong Lifang is in charge of finance, but when it comes to money-related matters, she always responds the fastest.
"The first season of "Adventures in Life" has been edited, and I am not too optimistic that this show will have good ratings on the TV platform," Li Mo shook his head and looked at Fu Ruoqing, "Brother Fu, what is the relationship between our company and Penguin Video now?
"It shouldn't be a big problem," Fu Ruoqing nodded, "Penguin Video has been using various channels to continuously increase their film library resources, although I haven't seen the finished film of the show "Adventure in Life", but with the selling point of Liu Yifei's first appearance in a reality show, at least there is no problem in recovering the cost." ”
"Okay, the variety show department will trouble Brother Zong to keep an eye on it," Li Mo named Zong Shuai again, "I will communicate directly with Sister Yu after the meeting ends, and ask her to urge the variety show department to hurry up, and the follow-up work progress report will be handed over to Brother Zong." ”
"Xiaomo, the budget investment of the movie you mentioned just now is about 30 million, right?"
"Well, I estimate that with Sister Xiaolu's cost control and scene control, it may be a little bit more than that, but it shouldn't exceed 40 million at most," Li Mo asked casually, "What, is there anything wrong with this budget?"
"There is nothing wrong with the budget itself, but Wang Changtian of Guanglu Media asked our company a few days ago if there are any films that need investment support in the future......"
"Then he shouldn't know that our company received this script from Sister Xiaolu, right?"
"It should ...... I don't know," Zong Shuai thought about it a little, and replied affirmatively: "I have also read Director Xue's script, although I didn't agree at the time, but with the relationship between Director Xue and our company, it should not be possible to directly hand over the script to another company without seeing you, Wang Changtian may not know about our company's decision to invest until now." ”
"That'...... You mean to bring Guanglu Media with you this time, but we are not short of funds this time......"
"It's not a question of how much money you have. The one who spoke was Ye Ning, who had been silent, "Since Guanglu Media took the initiative, we naturally have to respond, although the project of "July and Ansheng" is not big, but it can be regarded as the ...... of our company's superficial attitude."
Although it is easy to make people blush when they have an exclusive cake, if the items handed out are too small, it may also have the opposite effect.
"Brother Ye, you also heard just now, the volume of "July and Ansheng" is very small, and even I am very optimistic about its performance and prospects in the market for a film of this type, I am worried that Guanglu Media will think that we are just perfunctory to them. ”
"There's no need to worry about that, anyway, it's just an attitude, and whether the other party accepts or not is also a good opportunity for us to see the other party's attitude. Ye Ning continued to speak, "If Guanglu Media is just the kind of company that goes on when it has benefits and runs away when it has risks, such partners and allies are of no value to us at all!"
After thinking about it for a while, Li Mo finally made a decision.
"Send a copy of the project plan of "July and Ansheng" to Guanglu Media to see their intentions!"
