At noon the next day, Tang An first met Yu Dong in a hotel box.

Yu Dong was dragged to bed by him in such a daze, so he had to give an explanation to make him feel at ease.

"Yu Dong, let me apologize to you first, it was a little abrupt last night!"

"Director Tang is polite, if you have something good to think of me, I should thank you!" Yu Dong smiled after speaking, waiting for Tang An's explanation.

Tang An didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point, "Actually, I have been paying attention to the project "Painted Skin" for a long time, and in the past two years, the "Liao Zhai" series of TV series has been filmed twice, the audience is high, and the audience is also familiar with this story!"

Yu Dong nodded, this is something that everyone knows, and this alone is not enough for him to throw tens of millions of funds into it.

There are many famous stories in ancient times, "Fengshen Bang", "Journey to the West", "Mulan" or something, that is not as widespread as Liaozhai.

Tang An continued, "The cost of "Painted Skin" is not very high, there are no big scenes, most of them are filmed indoors, and top stars are not invited, and the budget of sixty or seventy million should be enough!"

"And I can be a producer under the name of a producer, at least I can ensure that the box office is more than 100 million!"

Yu Dong, who has always been indifferent, moved in his heart, with Tang An's fame, as long as the film is not rotten and hopeless, there is no problem with the box office of 100 million.

Everything that should be said was said, and Tang An waited for his reply.

Yu Dong silently calculated an account in his heart, 100 million box office, if the cost is controlled at 60 million, the three will be divided equally, if he invests 20 million, the box office share can be divided into more than 10 million points, plus the distribution fee, it is exactly 20 million.

It's not a loss, this kind of costume film still has overseas copyrights to make more money!

This business can be done, but now Yu Dong has one of the biggest questions in his heart.

"Director Tang, I can join the gang, but you have to confess to me, why did you find me, with your company's funds, there should be no shortage of these 20 million!"

It's impossible to drop a pie in the sky for no reason, and if there is, it's that someone deliberately smashed you on the head and wanted to kill you!

After more than 10 years in business, he still has this basic vigilance.

Tang An smiled bitterly, and then said with a straight face, "So far, I won't hide it from Yu Dong, I still want to ask Yu Dong for a favor!"

Here it comes!

Yu Dong said curiously, "Director Tang has something to say." ”

"I'm going to remove the original tentative director Cheng Jiashang!" Tang An said word by word.

Hearing what Tang An said about this, Yu Dong was stunned.

He knew about it two days before the release of "The Wind", and Tang An had not moved, which made people think that he would not retaliate.

Unexpectedly, at a young age, he endured it until this time, and then suddenly became difficult.

This is the first time Cheng Jiashang has come to the mainland to film, and it is also a costume production, there are not a few films of this level in a year, if it is taken away by Tang An, it will undoubtedly be a major blow.

Flaws must be reported, if you don't shoot, you will hit the key place as soon as you shoot, and you are a person who does great things!

Yu Dong also had a clearer understanding of Tang An, but this also made him even more unaware of Tang An's intention to join Huayi.

Are you willing to work for the Wang brothers in Huayi?

Yu Dong shook his head secretly, he didn't think about it so much, no matter what Tang An was trying to do in Huayi, it had nothing to do with him.

Ji'er smiled, "It's just a Cheng family businessman, if Director Tang has a more suitable director candidate, it doesn't matter if he is replaced!"

"Then thank you Yu Dong for your help, I will determine the candidate as soon as possible, and ask Yu Dong to check it when the time comes!"

After we finished talking, we started eating.

But then Yu Dong mentioned that he could bring in another Singaporean film company, which has always wanted to enter the mainland film industry, and has also bought the distribution rights of many mainland films in parts of Asia.

Tang An of this company also knows that they have obtained the distribution rights of some Southeast Asian countries for films such as "New Police Story", "Thousand Machines 2", "Seven Swords", "Casting Names", including the later "Jiangshan Beauty", "Fengyun 2", "October Siege", "Jinyiwei", "A Chinese Ghost Story" and other films.

Moreover, when the Japanese benzene people took over the distribution rights of "Red Cliff" in Asia, they still obtained the distribution rights of several countries.

There are gains and losses, and it seems that there has been no reinvestment or distribution of mainland films after 12 years, and it is estimated that they have lost everything.

"Vote for Fame" also has their investment, replacing part of the full copyright in Asia, and the result is naturally a loss of money.

It is estimated that this film will lose less than Berner and China Film, and the other seven or eight investors will lose miserably.

Yu Dong proposed that the other party exchange the Asian copyright of "Painted Skin" with a part of the investment, and Tang An also agreed, most of the film is in the mainland, and it is estimated that it will not be able to sell anything overseas.

After eating, Tang An went back to the studio, and today is Saturday, September 1, so he doesn't have to go to work.

"How is it, have you found that Wu Ershan?"

"I found it, I went to Shiyue Tang Culture in the morning, contacted him, and will come over at three o'clock in the afternoon. ”

Three!

Tang An looked at the time, and it was only an hour away.

"Okay, let him come to my office when the time comes!"

Tang An nodded and went back to the office.

More than half an hour later, Wu Ershan arrived as promised and came to the door of Tang An's office nervously.

As a rookie director, as long as he is not stupid, he can realize what a film and television production studio has come to him for.

Clutching the script of "Knife Laughter" tightly in his hand, he took a deep breath and raised his slightly trembling right hand to knock on the door.

"Please come in!"

Wu Ershan tried to calm himself down, gently pushed open the door and walked in.

"Hello Director Tang!"

For any rookie director, Tang An is an untouchable existence, and it is also the goal they strive for.

In addition to the speed of rise, the achievements are so dazzling, and the key is that they are still so young.

Tang An didn't even study directing, he can do it at such a young age, and I can do it if I change it, if I can't do it in four years, it will take eight years!

A lot of young directors think so!

"Director Wu, please take a seat!"

Tang An nodded and motioned for him to sit opposite.

I didn't take the initiative to get up to greet Corporal Lixian, and I didn't have much enthusiasm.

Tang An got straight to the point, "Director Wu must also know what I came to you for, right?"

Wu Ershan hurriedly said, "Please give instructions to Director Tang." ”

He is still a little nervous, whether he falls in love with the book of "Knife and Smile", or asks him to make other films, even if he is asked to be Tang An's deputy, it is a great opportunity.

However, hearing Tang An call him Director Wu made him feel a little relieved!

Then the front desk came in with two cups of tea, Wu Ershan took a sip of tea to calm down, so he was not so nervous, and waited quietly for Tang An to speak!

Tang An smiled and said, "I heard that Director Wu has a book of costume films, can you let me take a look?"

Wu Ershan's previous films can't be found, but through the script and storyboard script, you can still roughly understand his current characteristics and level!
