Huang Changtian continued to bombard: "By the way, Lin Dong, are you going to be a producer yourself this time? You have experience in this area, I heard Huayi's Zhonglei brothers say that you have a special set of actors." ”

"Huang Dong, since you have already put on a top hat, then I have no choice but to be respectful and obey!" Lin Xiaoguang came back to his senses and finally burst out with a sentence.

"And Lin Dong, how long does the filming period of your movie take?" asked Huang Changtian again.

Lin Xiaoguang thought about it and said calmly: "Three to five months." ”

"Three or five months ......"

Huang Changtian groaned for a while and said, "Okay, the task of forming the crew is for you, Lao Lindong." ”

"In addition, I don't care about how to choose the cast, I only have to pay for it this time, and you, the producer, have the final say. ”

"Of course, if there is a need for me, Lin Dong, you can just speak. ”

"Okay, let's settle it!"

"It's a deal!"

With Huang Changtian's words, Lin Xiaoguang finally has no worries, he can operate the entire crew according to his own ideas.

At least Lin Xiaoguang decided that Tao Hong, as the protagonist of the movie "Dear", would not be interfered with by any capital.

This is actually the trust that Lin Xiaoguang has won back from the hearts of those bigwigs through his own efforts over the years.

Not to mention far away, at the box office of the movie "Thai Embarrassment", Lin Xiaoguang helped Huang Changtian's Light Media earn almost seventy or eighty million.

It is conceivable that in the eyes of those bigwigs, Lin Xiaoguang is simply a cash cow that everyone loves!

In addition to the five traditional companies such as Guangguang Media, there are nearly 20 new film and television companies and artist studios, which have also negotiated with the light and shadow companies.

For example, Huang Bo, this time he also talked about cooperation with Lin Xiaoguang in the name of his personal studio.

In fact, as early as 2010, after Huang Bo's contract with the original agency CAA (Innovative Artist Agency) expired, he was not in a hurry to choose a new owner, but always wanted to follow Lin Xiaoguang and Fan Bingbing, prepare his own studio, and plan to set up his own door.

After careful consideration, Huang Bo finally announced the establishment of his own studio in August 2011.

This studio is mainly used to take care of Huang Bo's daily work, but also produces and undertakes film and television projects, and also develops scripts, in order to give Huang Bo himself more opportunities.

And Huang Bo through the establishment of the studio is to seek a greater breakthrough in the work of film and television outside actors.

However, in Huang Bo's view, the studio has just started after all, and it needs a gradual process, and if the studio wants to go long-term, the most important thing is to look at the quality of the works.

Therefore, this time Lin Xiaoguang asked him to play the male lead in the movie "Dear", and after Huang Bo read the script, he felt that this story was very touching.

So, Huang Bo didn't even talk about the salary, so he told Lin Xiaoguang on the phone that he was willing to star in this movie.

The two met again a week after the call, in Lin Xiaoguang's chairman's office.

"How is it, Brother Bo, is the studio still going well, and is there any business to be carried out?"

As Lin Xiaoguang spoke, assistant Xiaolan consciously served Huang Bo a cup of hot coffee.

Huang Bo carefully took the coffee from Xiaolan's hand, and after saying thank you, Fang said: "Yes, the studio is also developing the script now." ”

Lin Xiaoguang sat on a high-backed chair, lit a cigarette, and asked with great interest: "Develop the script? You also plan to change careers to become a director?"

Huang Bo took a sip of coffee, shook his head with a smile: "No, how can the director be so easy to do, now it's just a matter of looking at the flowers, I want to try all kinds of scripts." ”

Lin Xiaoguang asked curiously, "Is there any good project introduction now?"

"Not really, after all, I'm just an actor who mainly plays comedy, and the studio developed a script for me, mainly to see if there was a good comedy. ”

Lin Xiaoguang nodded empathetically: "That's right, actors do need enough scripts and director support to act in comedy, but these resources are extremely limited." ”

"For example, after the box office success of the "Thai Embarrassment" that we collaborated on before, everyone saw me and shouted in my ear, asking me when I would start filming the third part of "People in Embarrassment". ”

After a pause, Lin Xiaoguang spat out the smoke ring, and said angrily and funny: "I want to shoot it! But who can write me a script to shoot? If it's really as easy as they say, and you can shoot it when you say it, then what's the matter with us? Do you say yes?"

Huang Bo smiled and nodded: "Some people's things are really too taken for granted, so there are some things I want to shoot that I don't have a chance, and I need to create some opportunities for myself, do some scripts I like and some quality works." ”

Lin Xiaoguang put away his smile and said seriously: "Brother Bo, I'll just tell you like this, Tian Wenjun, the male number one, belongs to you!"

However, in business, the price of remuneration must still be discussed.

Moreover, Huang Bo, as the actor of the 46th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards, has gradually become a quasi-first-line star in China with many movies such as "Crazy Stone" and "Thai Embarrassment".

An actor like Huang Bo who has a good reputation for acting skills and is well-known will not be too low.

Originally, the salary was discussed with Lin Xiaoguang by the agent of Huang Bo's studio, but Huang Bo felt that he had a good relationship with Lin Xiaoguang, and there was no need to make such trouble, so he interviewed Lin Xiaoguang directly.

"How much is the salary, make a price, Brother Bo?"

Huang Bo said calmly: "Xiaoguang, I won't tell you anything, when I filmed the last drama "Ruffian Hero", I got a salary of 7 million. ”

In fact, Huang Bo's salary is neither high nor low, but the movie "Dear" is not a commercial blockbuster after all, and the cost of the whole movie is only 50 million.

If every actor takes over the play at his usual market price, it is estimated that after paying the actor's salary, there will not be much money left for Lin Xiaoguang to shoot the movie.

"Uh......" Lin Xiaoguang was in a dilemma.

Lin Xiaoguang originally thought that Huang Bo's salary was about 5 million, because he only spent 3 million to get Huang Bo done when he filmed "Thai Embarrassment" last year.

However, this is no longer the case.

The box office explosion of the movie "Thai Embarrassment" not only made Lin Xiaoguang famous, but also made Huang Baoqiang and Xu Zheng famous, and even made Huang Bo, one of the "Thai Embarrassment Trio", worth more.

Looking at Lin Xiaoguang's embarrassed expression, Huang Bo asked with a smile: "Xiaoguang, do you think that my price is too high?"

Lin Xiaoguang hurriedly said: "No, no, absolutely not, with your current coffee position, let alone 7 million, even 10 million is worth it, I ...... I'm just worried that the cost of the film is not enough......"

Huang Bo said with a smile: "Okay Xiaoguang, don't be embarrassed, I understand your difficulties, this beheading business is done, and no one does the loss-making business, I know it's not easy for you to be a producer, especially this kind of low-cost movie, your main purpose in making this public welfare theme is not to make money......"

"Besides, it really doesn't matter if the money is not money, I think it would be too boring if I took on the drama very purposefully until now, many TV dramas and drama works are very good. ”

"I set up the studio mainly for fun, not just for the economy. ”

"Otherwise, Xiaoguang, I don't plan to ask you for a salary, you can watch it yourself, if the movie is finished, there is still left, you can give as much as you want, if not, even if you don't give a penny, the key is to make the movie well." ”

Lin Xiaoguang understands, according to Huang Bo's own words, that is, his career plan is to do what he likes, and money is not the first place.

When Huang Bo said this, Lin Xiaoguang also blushed with shame, and he also realized that he was really a little too picky.

Therefore, Lin Xiaoguang secretly decided in his heart that Huang Bo's 7 million salary would not owe him a cent, even if the crew didn't have it, Lin Xiaoguang would pay out of his own pocket to make it up for him.

At this moment, Huang Bo suddenly changed his words: "But Xiaoguang, I also have a condition, can you let me bring a friend into the group?"

Lin Xiaoguang asked suspiciously, "Who?

Huang Bo nodded hurriedly: "You must know, he calls me Wang Xun, and we have filmed "Crazy Stone" together before." ”

It turned out that Huang Bo, the Golden Horse actor who has developed rapidly since the establishment of the portal, also signed the first artist under his umbrella as a "boss" some time ago - Sichuan actor Wang Xun.

The two had worked closely together in "Crazy Stone", at that time, Wang Xun played the snobbish "four-eyed secretary", who became popular all over the country with the sentence "Don't touch me", and Huang Bo was the "little brother" who followed Liu Hua.

However, Huang Bo shined in the movie with his talented humor cells, and his star journey has been smooth sailing since then, and he even won the Golden Horse Best Actor with "Bullfighting".

This time, the "little brother" became the "boss", and the two followed the example of Fan Bingbing and Wang Xueqi and started the "1+1" cooperation model.

Lin Xiaoguang thought for a while, and only then did he sit down at Huang Bo's prompt and remember that Wang Xun was coming.

Wang Xun has good acting skills, and he looks quite distinctive, just like a groundhog.

Lin Xiaoguang thought about it, and Fang nodded and said, "Yes, no problem, but ...... But I'm afraid I'm going to wronged him this time and play a trafficker in a prison cell. ”

Huang Bo hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's not wronged, traffickers are traffickers, I also read the script of "Dear", there is really no important role suitable for him, you can let him show his face, it's already good." ”
