Chapter 803: The First Director to Sign

"Why don't you read the script or talk about the conditions first?" Yi Shuihan was a little surprised, and Xu Yongzhi was a little unexpected.

But he didn't expect Xu Yongzhi to shake his head and say seriously: "Since you believe in me, a down-and-out director, what reason do I have not to believe you!"

Xu Yongzhi's trust made Yi Shuihan also a little moved, and his statement was equivalent to his unconditional trust in himself.

It's like buying something, before the seller gives the price, the buyer decides to buy it, and the price is still whatever you want.

"Haha, I can't see that Director Xu is such an emotional person!" Yi Shuihan smiled and said with some emotion.

Xu Yongzhi also knew that he was a little impulsive, but in the face of Yi Shuihan, who trusted him so much, he really didn't mind being so impulsive.

He shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Actually, this kind of thing is emotional, and it also has to divide people.

After filming "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", my fame and worth have increased greatly, and I am a lot older, but I didn't expect to be blinded by honor.

Those producers and investors were so delicious and invited and complimented me that I thought that my ability was up to the sky, so I took all the films.

After the filming is done and broadcast, when the results are not satisfactory, you will have to face their cynicism.

I didn't expect that I would understand this truth until I reached this age, and I was really ashamed.

To be honest, it's actually the hardest time for me.

I told you before that this year's schedule is completely empty...... In fact, no one is looking for me to make a TV series anymore!

In recent years, the capital in the film and television industry has invaded very strongly, and no one is optimistic about a director like me, who does not make money from several TV series in a row.

Only you are easy to be cold, and you are willing to give me a chance.

Akan, don't worry, I will definitely shoot this TV series with my heart.

Not only because of your trust, but also because I want those guys who look down on people to see, I Xu Yongzhi can still shoot a good TV series......"

Looking at Xu Yongzhi, who was a little emotional, Yi Shuihan felt a deep feeling in his heart.

thinks about how beautiful Xu Yongzhi was after filming "Sword and Fairy One", and after several successive failures, he was also lonely to the point where there was no drama to film.

The entertainment industry is such a cruel place, don't look at the actor he just won the golden hazel leaf, as long as he fails several times in a row, presumably the situation will not be much better than Xu Yongzhi.

This made him even more determined to take every TV series, movie, and every job seriously.

"Director Xu, I chose you not because of anything else, but because of your own ability!" Yi Shuihan said seriously: "Even if we trust each other again, the matter of this remuneration must be stated in advance, this Legend of Sword and Fairy II is expected to be around forty-six episodes, and the price that our studio will give you after negotiation is ...... 200,000 yuan per episode!"

Xu Yongzhi was stunned, 200,000 yuan a episode...... That's too much!

Now there are about more than 200,000 or 300,000 yuan per episode of first-class TV drama directors, while the average director is about 50,000 or 60,000 yuan per episode.

If it was the price after Xu Yongzhi just finished filming Xianjian three years ago, 200,000 yuan per episode would obviously be quite suitable, and there was even room for price increases.

But now, let alone an episode of 200,000 yuan, even if it is an episode of 100,000 yuan, no one may be willing to invite him.

And Yi Shuihan was willing to spend such a big price to invite him, which made him a little moved and a little ashamed at the same time!

"This ...... It's too much!" Xu Yongzhi took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and his expression gradually became firm: "One hundred thousand episodes is the right value for me at this time!"

Yi Shuihan waved his hand and said: "Director Xu doesn't need to shirk, we are giving the price according to your ability, if you are not worth the price, we will not give you this price, in business, you don't have to mind, it is the matter of Xianjian II in the future, you will have to worry about it!"

Xu Yongzhi glanced at Yi Shuihan deeply and said seriously: "I will live up to the trust." ”

"It's serious!" Yi Shuihan smiled, looked at Xu Yongzhi, who was quite related to him, and suddenly remembered something and asked: "Director Xu, I take the liberty of asking, have you signed a contract with any film and television company now?"

Xu Yongzhi was stunned for a moment and responded: "Basically, every time I shoot a TV series, I sign a labor contract separately, and there is no film and television company that has signed a contract!"

"Then how about you sign a contract with our studio? Our studio has not signed a director yet, if Director Xu signs a contract with our studio, our film and television resources will be inclined to you, and the director candidate must also give priority to you, as for the specific share and filming salary, we can discuss it later, but it will definitely not be harsher than those large film and television companies!" Yi Shuihan said seriously.

This can be said to be a whim of Yi Shuihan, when discussing the development of the coming year with Zheng Liaoyuan at the end of last year, they talked about setting up a director department this year.

And Xu Yongzhi in front of him happens to be a very suitable director candidate.

First of all, he is a veteran director, who can independently direct a TV series, and even has the ability to make high-quality movies, which is the talent resource that the studio needs the most.

Secondly, Xu Yongzhi is at a low point at this time, but it is just the most appropriate time, if he is in the stage of spring breeze, he must not be willing to be constrained by the studio.

The third point is that Yi Shuihan believes that he will be able to rise again after filming "Sword and Fairy II", and he will also be able to become a signature of the studio at that time!

And Xu Yongzhi was obviously a little stunned after hearing Yi Shuihan's proposal, he had never thought about which film and television company to sign before.

After all, as long as you have the ability and someone is willing to ask, the cooperation model of a work and a labor contract is more concise and free.

But after these months of suffering, his ideas have loosened a little, and signing a contract with the studio is also a guarantee!

After all, it was something that would involve a long time in the future, and he thought about it carefully.

The first consideration is whether Yi Shuihan's studio has development prospects, and the answer is undoubted, and even the entire entertainment industry will not have a studio with better development than him!

First of all, there is no need to worry about film and television resources in directing, and the studio even has its own fully invested works every year, as long as he has the ability, he will not worry about no filming.

And the quality of the scripts that came out of Yi Shuihan's studio is obvious to all! Whether it is "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", "Dragon Babu" or "Infernal Affairs", all of them are high-quality, and he doesn't have to worry about a big drop in value because of bad movies.

In addition, Yi Shuihan also said that the signing conditions will not be too harsh, which means that his future income will only be high...... This is a great temptation for him, a man who needs to provide for his family.

If there are any drawbacks, Xu Yongzhi frowned and thought for a while, that is, the film will be reviewed by the studio in the future, and there will be a commission.

This disadvantage is nothing at all for him who doesn't even have a film to shoot at this time......

"Good...... Let's get back to this and talk about it......"
