Chapter 359: Preparation for Pick-up

The dinner didn't last long.

Li Mo and Zhang Tianai still had the work of "Happy Death Day" the next day, and they were really inseparable, and Li Mo was really a little unaccustomed to Xu Zheng, who was an old driver, so it didn't take long for them to go back to their respective homes.

As soon as he got into Xu Zheng's car, Ning Hao went to the back row with his script and the few pages of printing paper brought by Li Mo.

…… He couldn't even wait to return to the hotel, he was directly in the car, and with the light of the mobile phone flash, he directly began to compare and reference.

"Lao Ning, your performance today is a little wrong," Xu Zheng drove in the front seat, saw Ning Hao's enthusiasm from the rearview mirror, and teased, "You must have been staring at my junior brother just now, could it be that you have taken a fancy to the little girl next to him?"

"Get out!"

Ning Hao didn't bother to raise his head, so he simply replied with a word.

"Eh, Lao Ning, let me tell you, my junior brother has a lot of beauties in their company, how do you say that you are also a parent, you can't make mistakes!"

"Get out, drive your car, don't delay me reading the script!"

Probably because Xu Zheng's distracted driving behavior made Ning Hao a little worried, this time he finally said a few more words.

"Lao Ning, seriously, the thing Li Mo just gave you really helped you so much?"

Ning Hao's current mood is obviously in a working state, and Xu Zheng didn't dare to continue to tease him, but began to seriously ask about the script.

"Lao Xu, your junior brother is really amazing. Ning Hao's voice was obviously filled with excitement and excitement that could not be concealed, "Do you know? With these few pages of printing paper, I can save at least three months of effort." ”

"Is it that powerful? Even if he writes a synopsis, isn't that still extracted from your script?

Xu Zheng's voice was a little shocked.

Ning Hao may not dare to say that he is the top in other aspects, but his screenwriting skills and storytelling ability are definitely among the top three directors Xu Zheng knows......

At least before today, Xu Zheng had never seen Ning Hao respect other people's scripts so much.

"As you said, every paragraph of Li Mo's story is copied from my script, but he not only arranged the order, but even the cause and effect between the paragraphs for me. ”

After a slight pause, Ning Hao continued, "To put it mildly, the pieces of paper that Li Mo handed us tonight are basically equivalent to the outline of the script and the synopsis of the story, with this thing, as long as I find a qualified screenwriter, at most a week, I can come up with the final draft of the script of "Heart Flower Road". ”

"Hehe, even the name is used directly?" Xu Zheng quipped, "Don't you think that your "Encounter with Fate" is quite good?

"Hehe, threesome, there must be my teacher, choose the good one and follow it, this is called the realm, do you understand?"

Ning Hao, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, looked really interested, and even dragged the ancient text on.

"Come on, no matter how well the script is written, it has to be invested to turn it into a movie," Xu Zheng, who was driving the car, thought for a long time, and finally felt that it was time to pour cold water on Ning Hao, "Have you figured out where to find this investment?"

Speaking of investment, Ning Hao's emotions that were still high just now immediately slipped into the trough at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"I ...... I still want to ......" Speaking of this topic, Ning Hao's voice suddenly carried some complicated emotions, and after a few seconds, he continued, "I still want to try with Mr. Li first." ”

The Mr. Li that Ning Hao said will naturally not be our 'shame of the traverser' Li Daguan.

The name of this 'Mr. Li' is Li Ming, and he is also the chairman of Mustang Galloping Film and Television Company.

It was under his leadership that Mustang Galloping has gradually changed from a company solely engaged in TV advertising business to one of the most popular film and television media companies in the mainland.

As early as 2009, Ning Hao was already the signed director of Mustang Galloping.

Unfortunately, his first film in Mustang Gallop was "No Man's Land".

When filming this movie at that time, Ning Hao asked for the highest budget he had ever controlled, although he also completed the movie as quickly as possible, but the fact that he couldn't get the release permission for a long time made Ning Hao feel sorry for Li Ming, who trusted him.

Officially driven by this emotion, Ning Hao filmed "The Great Gold Robbery" last year.

As a result, this time it was even worse, with a cost of 50 million yuan, 20 million yuan of publicity, and a total box office of only 154 million yuan......

As one of Ning Hao's good engine oils, Xu Zheng naturally knows what kind of person Ning Hao is.

But over the years, Ning Hao may not have changed, but Xu Zheng clearly knows that the wild horse galloping is no longer the wild horse galloping back then, Li Ming ...... It seems that he is no longer the 'dog brother' of the past.

To be honest, the reason why Xu Zheng took Ning Hao to visit the crew of "Happy Death Day" was because he had the idea of letting Ning Hao and Li Mo get acquainted.

In his opinion, although Molong is a newly established company, but its team is new, full of vitality, from the boss to the general manager are in the front line of the actual contact with the market trends, such a company, no matter how you look at it, is much stronger than the wild horse galloping that has almost become the 'Li family world'.

…… It's a pity that Ning Hao is really a bit brainless.

"Lao Ning, I'...... Hearing a news, "After struggling for a long time, Xu Zheng still decided to tell Ning Hao what he knew, "I heard that Mr. Li has recently gotten very close to Wu Yusen in the Xiangjiang Circle, and it seems that he is planning some big production, do you want to stop thinking about it?"

"No need," Xu Zheng's repeated persuasion aroused Ning Hao's rebellious mentality, "I've calculated, my investment in this "Heart Flower Road" is not big, at most 40 million yuan can be done, Mr. Li should consider my script." ”

"Alas......"

At this point, Ning Hao has already said this, and all Xu Zheng can do is sigh, and by the way, he silently wishes his old friend good luck in his heart.

…………

"Ning Hao will definitely not get the investment from the wild horse galloping. ”

That night, in a video conference with Zong Shuai, Li Mo definitely expressed his disapproval of Ning Hao's budget trip.

Moreover, what he said was quite similar to what Xu Zheng said.

"Ning Hao may still be the same Ning Hao when he signed a contract with Mustang Galloping, but the company Mustang Galloping has already changed its taste. ”

"Xiaomo, you mean, Li Ming has changed?"

Zong Shuai quickly grasped the main point of Li Mo's words.

"Ning Hao signed such a high-profile contract with Mustang Galloping back then, but as a result, the first movie put a squib, and Mustang Galloping pressed at least tens of millions of funds on it, no matter how generous a person is, he will inevitably have some thoughts in his heart in the face of this situation. ”

"But I heard that their general manager, Zhong Lifang, has just completed a large financing ......"

"Brother Zong, you also know that it is financing, and financing is to let investors see the benefits," Li Mo expressed a little disdain for this news, "But after the failure of Mustang Galloping experienced the failure of "The Great Gold Robbery", how much patience can you have with Ning Hao?"

"Then isn't it possible for us to pull Ning Hao into our company?"

The wild horse galloping dead and alive sect marshal didn't care at all, he just wanted to know what Molong could gain from it.

"At present, I can only say that the possibility is very high," after a little calculation, Li Mo continued to explain, "If Ning Hao is smart, follow the plot outline I wrote to him, it shouldn't deviate too much, anyway, we have about 30 million funds, and we are ready to take over." ”

"Thirty million? ”

"The lack of betting is one reason, and the other reason is that I want the directors and leading actors to participate in the investment so that they can share the financial pressure. ”

"After all, the surplus grain of our landlord's family is not endless......"
