Chapter 334: Creating a Star
When Li Mo received Hu Ge's confirmation reply, it was already the third day after Sun Yuyang's visit.
In other words, the attitude of Li Xue and Kong Sheng towards the works is indeed nothing to say.
In their eyes, only the role is not suitable...... Well, at most, whether it is appropriate to add a schedule, as for whether it is an actor from their own company, and whether they will compete with people from their own company after using it, these 'messy' things are not in their consideration at all......
As an old partner who has worked with them for many years, Hou Hongliang (that is, Hou Hongliang, in order to avoid suspicion, Hou Hongliang will be used in the future) is estimated to have persuaded them for a long time, but there is really no way to take these two bigwigs, so in the end, the decision on this matter will be stabbed to Li Mo.
However, in Li Mo's case, this matter can hardly be regarded as a real trouble.
Kong Sheng and they have no choice, that is because although they have a good reputation in the circle, they really can't have any personal relationship with Hu Ge, even if they bypass Tang Ren Company and meet Hu Ge, it is difficult for them to find a suitable angle to persuade Hu Ge.
But Li Mo is completely different.
Although he and Hu Ge didn't have any intersection before, the mere fact that both of them were graduates of the Modu Drama Academy was enough to get in.
In the traditional thinking logic of the people of the Celestial Empire, the network of relationships represented by the same 'teacher' is enough to exert influence on people.
The source of Hu Ge's affection for Tang Ren is nothing more than the gratitude generated by Cai Yinong's behavior of stopping the crew after he suffered a car accident, but in Li Mo's opinion, no matter how deep the affection is, it is at most a thing that can not be renewed.
In this world, no matter how deep the feelings are, it is impossible to withstand consumption again and again.
For Tang Film and Television, it is currently facing three major difficulties: theme transformation, cultivating ace artists, and solving the problem of funding, but no matter which point it is, it is by no means easy for Tang Film and Television and Cai Yinong.
However, Li Mo is not interested in worrying about Tang Ren's affairs for Cai Yinong, since she likes to ask for prices so much, Li Mo simply gives her a salary to see if she is willing to sacrifice her economic interests or sacrifice her relationship with Hu Ge......
Anyway, that little bit of affection won't be used a few times.
……
After solving the casting problem of the crew of "Langya Bang", Li Mo did not plan to meddle in anything related to the crew in addition to the name of a producer in the crew.
After all, although the nominal producer is considered a common practice of domestic film and television media companies, the real person in charge of the crew must be Hou Hongliang, and if he interferes too much in this regard, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction from the other party......
After signing his name on the project planning book in a chic manner, Li Mo looked up at Zong Shuai across the desk and said, "Brother Zong, is there anything else going on in the company in the past two days?"
"It's not much, someone recommended a TV series script to me a few days ago, what is it called Diamond...... , I was saying that I was going to show it to you," Zong Shuai flipped through the notebook in front of him and read the things he had written down one by one, "And then there is the martial arts script that you initialed the contract last time, and the screenwriter lady once called and asked when the formal contract could be signed." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Zong Shuai finally added, "I feel that young lady seems to be in a hurry, do you think it is necessary for us to press the price of the script?"
"There's no need," after thinking about it for a while, Li Mo made a decision, "Although the subject matter of this script is relatively unpopular, after all, it is the first script delivered by our company, and it should be a thousand dollars to buy horse bones." ”
"Besides, the price of the script is not high, and it doesn't make sense to save 12,000 yuan, but it makes people think that our Molong Media is stingy. ”
"That's the same thing," Zong Shuai's mind turned slightly, and he naturally understood Li Mo's thoughts, so he didn't plan to continue to dwell on this matter, "Then just take advantage of the fact that you are still in the imperial capital, I will ask someone to call the female screenwriter now, and if you have any requirements, you can tell her in person, so as not to be unclear in the future." ”
"Okay!" After thinking about it for a while, Li Mo continued to speak, "Brother Zong, I have an idea, you can help me consult......"
…………
After more than half an hour, Li Mo explained his thoughts to Zong Shuai, and after Zong Shuai listened, he pinched his chin and thought about it for a long time before he gave Li Mo a rough idea of his whole thoughts.
"What do you mean is to let her be responsible for expanding her script into a series, and then building Chen Shu into a ...... 'star' in the screenwriting industry" After thinking for a while, Zong Shuai finally found a suitable adjective to describe Li Mo's planned identity, "Is she okay?"
"Brother Zong, do you know what is the most valuable thing in the future film and television industry?" Without waiting for Zong Shuai to answer, Li Mo continued, "It's copyright, in the words of the Internet industry, that is, IP." In the future film and television industry, the proportion of original scripts will inevitably decline seriously, and whoever holds more copyrights of popular works will be able to seize the opportunity when competing for audiences. ”
"No wonder you asked me all over the world to buy the copyright of the work some time ago," Zong Shuai suddenly realized, "Xiaomo, you have long thought that there will be this day?"
"Yes, collecting the copyrights of well-known works in advance is the first step in my plan," Li Mo nodded and continued, "To create a star screenwriter who belongs to our Molong...... No, it should be a star writer, it's my second step. ”
"What is the reason?" Zong Shuai asked directly, "If your plan is successful, Chen Shu will gain fame, what else do we gain besides the copyright of the work." ”
"It's the attraction," Li Mo replied, "The Internet book market is extremely vast, and new writers emerge every day, even if only one out of a thousand of them can come out, the total number is also an extremely large number." ”
"It is impossible for our company to have time to sift through the works of all writers, but we can turn Chen Shu into a living golden signboard, so that everyone who is interested in this will know that Molong Media is a company that values online writers and their works very much, and the time will ......."
"At that time, there will be a steady stream of works willing to invest in our company, which can at least alleviate ......our lack of excellent scripts," Zong Shuai continued to follow Li Mo's words.
After Li Mo's explanation, Zong Shuai also began to feel that the plan Li Mo mentioned may not be feasible at all.
"But Xiaomo, what you just said is based on a premise, that is, Chen Shu is willing to cooperate with us and become our Mo Long's royal gunman and a living signboard on the surface, but didn't you say last time that you had mentioned this matter to her, but she refused?"
"At that time, she really didn't agree," Li Mo nodded, and continued, "But didn't you just say it, this Miss Chen's recent economic situation doesn't seem to be ideal, if we can provide her with an opportunity to gain fame and fortune, then why wouldn't she?"
"Hmph Xiaomo, I find that you like calculating people more and more now......"
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm called the one who is close to Zhu is red and the one who is close to ink is black, and you don't want to see who I spend the most time with during this time?"
"I found that your mouth is getting more and more damaged......"
