Chapter 673: Undecided

"Xiaoguang, you have been making movies for so many years, you should know very well that a project like "Pancake Man" will be difficult at first, but I firmly believe that it can take shape, and once it is launched, it will be easier the later it gets. Chen Zhixi in front of him, his conversation and gestures are completely businessman's style, and he looks shrewd and intelligent.

Lin Xiaoguang admires a vigorous and resolute woman like Chen Zhixi, who is very cheerful in life and work, speaks very directly, and never beats around the bush.

However, due to her appearance, Lin Xiaoguang really just appreciates her, and has absolutely no other ideas.

Lin Xiaoguang was not verbose, and directly had a showdown with her: "Okay Zhixi, I've been friends for so many years, I still don't believe you? Just tell me directly, how much budget does you want for this movie?"

Chen Zhixi paused, and said with a straight face: "Xiaoguang, the preliminary budget for the investment cost of our film is about 50 million. ”

Lin Xiaoguang pondered for a while, in today's film projects with hundreds of millions of dollars, the production cost of "Pancake Man" is indeed not high, and even a little low, so how to control the cost will also become a big problem.

After a pause, Lin Xiaoguang asked again: "Is your 50 million the cost of shooting, or is it included in the publicity?"

Chen Zhixi said calmly: "Publicity and distribution are also included, and the proportion accounts for half of the total cost, so the actual shooting cost of this movie is only about 25 million." ”

Lin Xiaoguang was a little curious, the shooting cost was only 25 million, and Dapeng was not a big shot, how did he later invite so many stars to make cameos in the movie "Pancake Man"? This can't help but make Lin Xiaoguang wonder.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoguang said angrily: "Zhixi, it's not that I want to hit you, with a mere 25 million shooting cost, who can Dapeng invite to shoot?"

Chen Zhixi smiled and said: "Xiaoguang, don't worry, Dapeng's ability is much stronger than you imagined." ”

Lin Xiaoguang also smiled and sighed: "Okay, Zhixi, since you have talked about this, I won't go around in circles with you, just say it directly, how much do you need me to pay?"

Hearing Lin Xiaoguang's words, Chen Zhixi breathed a sigh of relief, and said to him with a smile: "Xiaoguang, I like your happy character, just like us Northeast people, atmospheric. ”

Lin Xiaoguang said angrily and funny: "Okay, don't be a sycophant, I don't eat this set, you tell me directly, how much do you need me to pay?"

Chen Zhixi put away his smile and said, "10 million!"

Lin Xiaoguang didn't think about it, so he nodded: "Yes, no problem, by the way, besides me and you, are there any other companies to invest?"

Chen Zhixi didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Of course there is, as well as Wanda and Sohu." ”

"Well, that's fine, that's it. ”

The so-called wealth scatters people gather, wealth gathers people scattered, money is extremely important, if money is not omnipotent, it is also 9,999 energy.

But Lin Xiaoguang also knows very well that money is not reserved for one person to earn, if you want to earn it, everyone will earn it together, in this regard, Lin Xiaoguang is still very open.

If you have earned everything, what do you let others earn? Why should others accompany you if others are not profitable? Take what each needs on the common road, satisfy each other, fulfill each other, but do no harm or deception, this is the basis of cooperation.

Subsequently, after Lin Xiaoguang signed a cooperation agreement with Chen Zhixi and sent her out, Lin Xiaoguang lit a cigarette by himself and leaned against the window to meditate.

How to say it, Lin Xiaoguang actually doesn't like Dapeng very much, and even hates it a little.

There is no way, Lin Xiaoguang's biggest impression of Dapeng is that his "Dapeng Bang Bang" plagiarized the opening of "The Conan Show", was criticized by Conan by name, and was thrown abroad.

And although some of the short films in "Dick Silk Man" are really funny, those contents are composed of many outdated Internet jokes, and there is nothing innovative at all.

Therefore, Lin Xiaoguang also confessed to Chen Xi that he was willing to invest in "Pancake Man", which had nothing to do with whether Dapeng was talented or not, it was completely on her face.

Moreover, it is Chen Zhixi's personality to stick a knife in both ribs for a friend, and Lin Xiaoguang admires her personality very much.

Many people may not know that Chen Zhixi even wanted to shoot the movie "Blooming" at a loss of 2 million in order to let Pan Yueming get out of the pain of divorce.

At that time, Pan Yueming was at a low point in his life, but he insisted on acting and didn't want to take on TV series.

It just so happened that Teng Huatao found him with this script, and Chen Zhixi also participated, with a total cost of 20 million, and she invested 2 million.

As a result, not a penny was returned.

Lin Xiaoguang, Xu Zheng and these friends all felt that the rational Chen Zhixi was a little willful in this matter.

But Chen Zhixi had no regrets, and described the relationship between him and Pan Yueming to Lin Xiaoguang: "I have seen him fall in love with Dong Lianhua and get married all the way over the years, when he got married. I didn't invite anyone in the circle, but I did, my relationship with many people is very real, everyone can really treat me as family, and I really treat you as family. ”

In addition, during the time when Pan Yueming and Dong Lianhua were in the lawsuit, Chen Zhixi even put down his work for a while and helped him manage it as an agent.

Therefore, for Chen Zhixi, a bold and righteous Northeast woman, Lin Xiaoguang has nothing to say, just one word: "Convincing!"

The next day, Xu Zheng also came to the light and shadow company.

As soon as he entered the door, Xu Zheng couldn't sit down yet, so he couldn't bear it anymore and asked Lin Xiaoguang: "Xiaoguang, it's been so long, have you decided on the choice of the heroine of the movie?"

Looking at Xu Zheng's appearance of asking for guilt, Lin Xiaoguang poured tea for him and said with a smile: "Old Xu, don't worry, come, you sit down first and drink a cup of hot tea." ”

Xu Zheng sat down reluctantly, approached the teacup brought by Lin Xiaoguang, and said angrily: "Xiaoguang, when is it, it's about to burn your eyebrows, can I not be in a hurry?"

It's no wonder that Xu Zheng is so anxious, according to the original idea, the movie "Hong Kong Embarrassment" will start next month, but Lin Xiaoguang has not decided who to invite to play the heroine.

It's not that Lin Xiaoguang didn't want to give Xu Zheng an answer earlier, but Lin Xiaoguang himself didn't think about which female star he wanted to play the female number one in "Hong Kong".

On the other hand, it is also because the script of "Hong Kong" is really not good, and the heroine's character design is not very pleasing, almost a yellow-faced woman's setting, Lin Xiaoguang doesn't know who to play.

The embarrassing series is a big IP, basically whoever plays is popular, many actresses in the circle are eager to have such resources, and their economic companies have also taken the initiative to contact the light and shadow company.

Even Zhao Wei expressed to Lin Xiaoguang on the phone that he wanted to play the female number one in "Hong Kong", but Lin Xiaoguang politely refused Zhao Wei's request.

Therefore, every time Xu Zheng asked, Lin Xiaoguang prevaricated half-jokingly.

After coming and going, Xu Zheng was really anxious, so he took the initiative to come to the door and wanted to ask Lin Xiaoguang for an explanation.

In fact, Lin Xiaoguang also had a headache, so he threw the question back to Xu Zheng: "Old Xu, tell me honestly, when you wrote this script, did you consider the candidate in advance?"

Hearing Lin Xiaoguang's words, Xu Zheng asked with great interest: "Xiaoguang, what do you think...... How is Zhao Wei?"

Lin Xiaoguang said angrily: "Why is it Zhao Wei again...... Is there no one else but her?"

As soon as Lin Xiaoguang heard Xu Zheng mention Zhao Wei, he guessed that Zhao Wei must have looked for Xu Zheng, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

Xu Zheng said earnestly: "Xiaoguang, it's not that no one else can play it, let me tell you this, in fact, anyone can play this heroine, but there are few people who are more suitable than Zhao Wei." ”

Lin Xiaoguang said disapprehantly: "I don't think so, although Zhao Wei is a first-line actress in our country, she herself does not sell tickets, and the audience is not very good." ”
