Zhou Zhiyu stood up, "I understand! Brother Qian, then I'll go first!"
Li Qian nodded, also stood up, and said, "That's okay, you go first! Attention, don't be too rushed, how to act, how to act, and figure out the role in a down-to-earth manner! Director Feng is a veteran and a master, although it is a TV series, there are still a lot of things you can learn from him!"
Zhou Zhiyu nodded, "Okay!
When he left, Li Qian just sat down, Qin Nuo knocked on the door and came in, "Mr. Li, Director Jiang has been here for a while, do you want to notify him now?"
Li Qian said: "Okay, okay!
After more than a minute, Jiang Jianming pushed the door in, Li Qian stood up, walked over to shake hands with him, and smiled, "Director Jiang, long time no see!"
Jiang Jianming is a famous director of the TV drama production center of Huaxia TV, when Li Qian filmed "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to play Sun Ce, Jiang Jianming happened to be the executive director of the Dongwu group of that play, the two have worked together, and they have some friendship, but the relationship between Li Qian and Feng Yumin is not good.
But on the contrary, the evil thing is that Feng Yumin is about to change jobs, but he is not even willing to talk to Li Qian, but Jiang Jianming, after Lu Ruoying took the stage as a director, also started to change jobs, and began to suddenly warm up with Minghu Culture, and seemed to be very interested in coming here to be a director.
Of course, the price he offered was not low.
On the side of Minghu Culture, Jin Han was busy preparing for "Peacock", Han Shunzhang was busy preparing for the second part of "Deep Love and Rain" and "Princess Huanzhu", and they couldn't spare their hands, Zhao He's "Young Bao Qingtian" had just been completed, but after he came to Minghu Culture, he had always hung under Han Shunzhang's name and served as the deputy manager of the film and television department. Cao Zhan is the deputy director of art, which is very suitable, but he was busy recording first, and then busy staring at the later stage, so he was really unskilled, so from the beginning, it was Qi Jie who came into contact with Jiang Jianming.
To be honest, the specifications given to him are very high.
Of course, over the years, Jiang Jianming has still made a lot of good shows in his hands, and he is a tough hand in the domestic TV drama circle! Although Liao Min knew that after talking to Jiang Jianming, Liao Min sued Qi Jie and Li Qian, saying that this guy has a little unclean hands and feet, and has problems such as liking to hook up with actresses, but in this circle, you can't expect everyone to have both talent and morality, a little problem, as long as you stare at him, it won't go overboard, and it's not a big problem - it's still that sentence, you and I just want to!
Besides, Jin Han went to film "Full House of Romance", and he also stuffed someone into it! What is the name of Han Meilin, her acting skills can only be said to be enough, but she is young and beautiful, before filming "Full House of Romance", she had already started to follow Jin Han, and Li Qian deliberately left him a role at the beginning, and Jin Han was very useful!
Speaking of which, it is still the same sentence: people are not sages!
In terms of Jiang Jianming's strength and status in the rivers and lakes, he belongs to the kind of role that as long as Feng Yumin leaves, no one in the Huaxia TV drama production center can hold it down, if he can come to Minghu Culture and help Li Qian share the pressure of some TV dramas, he can also withstand half of Feng Yumin.
The price is to set up a Jiang Jianming Film and Television Culture Studio affiliated to Minghu Culture, with a full injection of 80 million yuan by Minghu Culture, and Jiang Jianming takes 30% of the shares, responsible for helping Minghu Culture produce three TV series within five years - money, expenses, and financial personnel sent by Minghu Culture to manage it, but in addition, what this studio wants to shoot, how to shoot, who to use and who not to use, Jiang Jianming has the final say.
On this condition, Qi Jie has already made a price cut.
At the beginning, he also asked for 100 million yuan and 40% of the shares!
But obviously, he hasn't reached Feng Yumin's level yet, and he's not worth that much money!
And even at the current price, Qi Jie and Li Qian are not too satisfied - the money can be given, but the power is not so big.
The TV drama market in recent years has indeed been quite profitable, especially on the side of Minghu Culture, which has launched three dramas in three years, each of which is a big hit, and it is also one of the few dramas that can be sold to Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia in recent years, and they have also gained quite good ratings and influence in Asia.
It is precisely because of this that Jiang Jianming is more enthusiastic about coming to Minghu culture and has been in close contact.
However, whether it is Li Qian or Qi Jie, standing in a higher position to take stock of the TV drama market, they all feel that 80 million yuan is invested in it and handed over to Jiang Jianming, and when his three dramas are filmed, although they can take the TV drama channel that Minghu Culture has opened up, they don't have to worry about selling, but if they want to sell a plate with an income of one or two hundred million, I'm afraid it's not easy - the TV station is not stupid, and the director with Li Qian is a price, and only Li Qian's producer and screenwriter are not the director, and it is another price!
doesn't want to make money, if the 80 million invested in it wants to save the capital and recover it, he requires that the three dramas he filmed must be sold for 120 million - the investment is all Minghu culture, but the income will be divided into 30% to Jiang Jianming.
Of course, as long as Jiang Jianming's play is not bad, even from the perspective of expanding the scale of the industry and cultivating actors and behind-the-scenes staff, even small losses can be regarded as earning.
But the question is, Jiang Jianming requires full control of his own studio, will he be willing to help Minghu Culture cultivate talents from beginning to end?
It's hard to say!
The two shook hands and greeted each other, Qin Nuo brewed tea over, Jiang Jianming sat down and began to scold his mother: "her mother, Lu Ruoying, that girl, is getting more and more excessive, relying on the surname Zhao to support her in the back, the last meeting, Feng Ye was picked up in and out of the words!, you don't want to think about it, when you first entered the TV station, but our Feng Ye took you, this is the director, think you are a character?
Li Qian smiled and replied casually, "The new official has taken office with three fires! If you don't suppress the old authority, how can you show that the dynasty has changed? Feng Ye didn't say anything, you, dissipate your anger!"
Jiang Jianming said: "Lao Tzu just can't get used to her!"
Li Qian smiled again, "Drink tea!"
If you want to talk about it, Jiang Jianming is also a very interesting person, he knows that his friendship with Li Qian can only be regarded as average, and he also knows that Li Qian and Feng Yumin have a good relationship, so as soon as they met, he scolded Lu Ruoying for Feng Yumin, but he didn't know that since Qi Jie went to Huaxia TV to find Lu Ruoying and pulled the first TV series soundtrack list of Li Qian's studio at that time, the friendship between the two of them was left.
Up to now, let's not say that it is a friendship of many iron and many deaths, the two often make an appointment for dinner or beauty together, and the friendship is good. Even, when "Princess Huanzhu" and "Youthful Times" fought to the death on TV for ratings, didn't the two of them still eat together?
Of course, Li Qian has no friendship with her.
I have eaten together a few times, one of which is Qi Jie with Li Qian, Lu Ruoying with her boyfriend, it can be regarded as a family party with an unjustified name, it is said that friendship should be there, but Li Qian always felt that Lu Ruoying's person was a bit complicated, so he subconsciously was reluctant to have a deeper relationship with her, and also persuaded Qi Jie not to have too deep a relationship with her.
At this time, everyone took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, Jiang Jianming asked: "I have talked to Mr. Qi a few times, I don't know if Mr. Qi has told you?"
Li Qian nodded and said, "I said." ”
Although I don't know why Jiang Jianming suddenly came over before he and Qi Jie had not completely negotiated, Li Qian still said sincerely: "Director Jiang, I can trust your ability, the specific conditions are also easy to negotiate, and I also support your request for creative autonomy, but I also hope that you can understand our considerations, Minghu Culture should be a whole industry chain, not just want to eat fat in film and television, so, since it is the whole industry chain, it is required to be between each step, Each department must cooperate with each other, so you can be independent to a certain extent, but not completely independent, I mean, I hope you can understand!"
Jiang Jianming nodded, looking deeply agreed, but then smiled again, rubbed his hands, and said, "I understand what you mean......! Hey, how can I tell you!"
As soon as Li Qian saw his appearance, expression, and tone, he knew that something was wrong.
But he thought about it, but he still smiled and said, "It's okay, you say." ”
Jiang Jianming had a smile on his face, and said: "I have talked with Mr. Qi so many times, I really feel the sincerity of Mr. Qi and you, and I really want to come to Minghu Culture." Seriously, it's not flattering you! We have been in the domestic film and television circle for so many years, and I will serve two people, one is you and the other is Feng Ye! Feng Ye is a big man, I don't have to say it! What about you, you are self-made, you are still in school here, and "The Legend of the New White Lady" has already been filmed over there, and one drama a year, directly beating Huaxia TV down! Just one word, cow!
Speaking of this, he sighed and said: "Now that Feng Ye has been squeezed away, of course I want to come over and join you in the team! I'd rather give a hero a horse and a stirrup than Lai Han as an ancestor! Qi is always an open person, and the conditions he gives, although he hasn't been completely negotiated, are actually not bad, I don't have to say anything! However, just a few days ago, I wanted to leave Huaxia Station with the news, and I don't know how to spread it, and an old friend came to the door!"
"They actually saved up! There are brokerage companies, film companies, and even a little stock of a TV station, and they came to me, saying that they wanted to play a big game! The upfront investment was 150 million, and they promised to give me 20 percent of the shares! I, you know, I'm used to being poor! I almost made people faint!"
Li Qian nodded slowly and did not speak.
After a pause, Jiang Jianming sighed and said: "I don't treat you as an outsider, we have also been friends for many years, to be honest, I have a hundred claws in my heart! Weighing the pros and cons, all kinds of analysis and considerations, in the end, I still feel that I am more inclined to come to Minghu and cooperate with you!"
Li Qian smiled and nodded, "Thank you Director Jiang for your trust!"
Jiang Jianming waved his hand, "Hey! Then there is no need to talk about it! They are a fart, they are just rich! Are they uncles if they are rich? Not in my opinion! In my opinion, cooperating with you is much better than cooperating with a bunch of money! You are an expert, what do I want to do, I have to say hello and explain to other people's financiers, right? They don't understand art! But with you, you don't need to be at all, you are an expert, I don't need to say, you know why I do this, think about it, how worry-free!"
Li Qian nodded slowly when he heard this, with a smile on his face, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It's not that simple!
It's normal to wait for the price to sell!
It's just that, compared with Feng Yumin, he still has less courage and persistence.
Again, the level is different, the angle of standing is different, and the world and the future are different.
Feng Yumin didn't want to talk to Minghu, Li Qianshu felt sorry, but he still admired his choice, and he could vaguely perceive his thoughts.
But Jiang Jianming's practice of hanging aside and letting this side increase the price is ...... It's a pure businessman!
His own evaluation of himself is broken in one sentence: he is used to being poor!
But, after all, people didn't elope directly after seeing a pile of money, and then turned back to talk to you.
So after thinking about it, Li Qian said: "That's it, at this point, I want to thank Director Jiang for your willingness to give priority to Minghu, so I promise to give you an investment of 100 million yuan and give you 30% of the shares, but the actors, especially the male and female protagonists, must be selected from within the company first, in addition, the script and the selection of actors must be approved by the company. How's it going?"
"That's it!"
When Jiang Jianming heard this, he showed a hesitant look.
Li Qian smiled and said: "Of course, the contract must be so agreed, but please rest assured, please believe in my trust in your ability, the script, the actors, the company or myself, I must respect your choice to the greatest extent!"
Jiang Jianming nodded with a smile when he heard this, and said, "Understand, understand!"
After a pause, he said, "Either ...... I'll go back and think about it?"
Li Qian smiled when he heard this, "Of course it's no problem!"
After that, the two got up separately and shook hands solemnly, Li Qian smiled: "Think about it, no matter what, give me a message." Even if it doesn't work out this time, there are still many places where we can cooperate in the future!"
Jiang Jianming laughed and shook hands vigorously, "Of course, of course!"
Personally sent him out of the office, and seeing him go away, Li Qian couldn't help but sigh softly.
Gotcha!
