Liu Ruishu suspected that Tang An specially chose to announce the launch of "Thai Embarrassment: Detective Chinatown" at this time, when the box office of "Modern Times" was almost an avalanche.

Under the double pressure of the substitutions of "Modern Times" and the embarrassing series, Xu Zheng was forced to lower his conditions, and even honestly get paid for his death.

This is very likely, otherwise there is no reason for Tang An, an already mature series, to suddenly change the director and actors.

This is a series, and it is not directed by Tang An himself.

Why would Hollywood series rather give actors sky-high salaries than risk changing people, and changing the lead role can save tens of millions of dollars.

But it had been ten minutes since she entered the office, and Tang An didn't mention it at all, so Liu Ruishu could only take the initiative to speak.

Regardless of whether Tang An deliberately lowered the price or not, they had no way to resist, and from the moment "Modern Times" failed, Xu Zheng's chips were less than half.

"Tang Dong, Xu Zheng has already written the outline of the script for the next "Hong Kong Embarrassment", I originally wanted to come to you after the New Year, but I didn't expect you to have other plans, but this script is very good, do you want to take a look?"

Liu Ruishu took out a few bound pieces of paper with a little flattery and handed them to the table.

Tang An glanced at her with a slight surprise and took the script, "It's done so quickly?"

"In fact, Xu Zheng has been pondering this script for the past year, he is a person who pursues quality, and Tang Dong, you also know it, so he didn't start the third part immediately. Liu Ruishu hurriedly said.

Quite good at talking.

Tang An's gaze moved from the script to Liu Ruishu, smiling noncommittally.

is still "Hong Kong", almost the same story, it should be borrowed from some American movies of "Forty-year-old Virgin".

In addition to being funny, there must also be a line that can move people, just like the family relationship between Xu Zheng and Huang Bo in "Thai Embarrassment", the friendship between Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, of course, it can also be love or something.

There are also in "Hong Kong Embarrassment", which can't be said to be hypocritical, with many ideas or anything, and the ultimate goal is to attract the audience.

Without this moving line, the movie is relatively poor.

It's just that Xu Zheng didn't handle it well, and the choice of actors was also a little lacking, including Bao Barium and Zhao Wei, who were not selected well.

Zhao Wei's role is an actress who can't ask for the box office, and her fame can't be low for the sake of the box office, it seems that Zhao Wei is quite suitable, but she is actually very dramatic.

As for barium...... There's not much to say, and it is estimated that few viewers will approve of his performance in it.

But this is the envy of the people, the investor and the issuer.

An outline was only a few hundred words, and it was quickly read, and Tang An put it in front of him.

"The script is not bad. ”

Liu Ruishu was overjoyed.

"But "Detective Chinatown" is already in preparation, and it is impossible for a series to be released twice a year, wait for next year, just perfect the script, and don't rush at this time. ”

Liu Ruishu's heart that she had just put down suddenly rose again, and she hurriedly said, "Tang Dong, the "Embarrassment" series has become a signboard, and Xu Zheng is also the face of this signboard, if you change people rashly, it may affect the entire series." ”

Tang An shook his head with a smile and asked rhetorically, "When "People in Embarrassment" was released, could Mr. Liu always think of breaking 100 million at the box office?"

"Now "Detective Chinatown", who knows if it won't succeed?"

Can this be the same, how much investment is invested in "People in Embarrassment", and how much money is lost.

But if "Detective Chinatown" fails, it will not only be a matter of investment, but the entire series will be affected, and the loss will not be a little bit.

thought so in her heart, but she definitely couldn't refute Tang An head-on.

"Mr. Liu, you ask Director Xu to take over some other film first, polish the script well, and talk about this "Hong Kong Embarrassment" next year. Tang An was still busy writing the script, and he didn't have time to say anything more to her.

Liu Ruishu was angry for a while, thinking that Tang An was running on Xu Zheng, she couldn't help but say, "Tang Dong, if you have any requirements, just say it directly, Xu Zheng can only have an 8% profit share, which is a little higher than "Thai Embarrassment". ”

This is on the bright side, Tang An shook his head.

"This project will start next year, Mr. Liu, you should go back first. ”

"Tang Dong..."

"As I already said, "Detective Chinatown" has been approved by Optoelectronics, the bank loan is about to come down, and the location team has also gone to Thailand, and the Thai government will do its best to cooperate with the filming, do you want me to suddenly stop this project?"

Tang An slowly became a little impatient, and his tone became louder.

"I won't lose a cent of the money you should take, how much money you can get, don't be blushing if you shouldn't take it, if you have the ability to make a movie with full funding, I will distribute it to you, the market price of the distribution fee, not more than a penny from you!"

"Don't threaten at every turn, anyone can turn without this earth!"

Tang An's words made Liu Ruishu unable to answer, regardless of whether Xu Zheng had the intention of threatening at that time, at least in the eyes of the parties, or even her, it was a threat to raise prices.

It's okay to sit on the ground and start the price, it's not like this in business, the key is to be eligible to increase the price, but I didn't expect it to be planted in the end, and it stands to reason that I blame myself.

And Tang An didn't treat them badly, originally Xu Zheng of "Thai Embarrassment" didn't pay a dividend for his death, but in the end, Tang An still gave a 5% share of the profits, which is enough for conscience.

But everyone wants to fight for their own interests, and no one is afraid of money.

"That's it, "Hong Kong" was released during the Spring Festival in 13, and Xu Zheng's director salary + actor's salary was 15 million, plus 5% of the mainland's profit share. ”

"There is a role in "Looking for the Dragon" that is considered the third male number, there are not many scenes, if Xu Zheng is interested, he can make a cameo, and Mr. Liu will go back first. ”

The salary of 15 million is not low, Chen Kun took "Looking for the Dragon" is 8 million, and 10 million is a superstar-level salary this year.

Tang An's own director's basic salary is only 10 million.

In the case of occupying the absolute upper hand, there is still no malicious price reduction, it is enough to be benevolent and righteous, and Tang An will not be stingy when others should take it.

Liu Ruishu couldn't say anything more, so he could only say goodbye and leave.

However, when she walked to the door of the office and opened the door, Tang An called her again.

"Mr. Liu. ”

"Don't forget your identity, you are not only Xu Zheng's agent, but also the general manager and shareholder of the studio, and Hantang Media is the majority shareholder of the studio. ”

Liu Ruishu paused slightly, then closed the door and left.

Tang An no longer thinks about it, everyone thinks that they are the protagonists, everything is as they think, the new film is a big hit, and then increase the quota, and then make two more films to stand on their own, and then become a prince and a bigwig in the entertainment industry.

It's all the protagonists, so who is the supporting role?
