174 [Sign Wang Jing] (ask for subscription)

"Director Wang, you came just in time, I have a drama I want to talk to you about. In order to take care of Wang Jing's face, Xia took the initiative to say with a smile.

"Okay, I don't know what kind of drama it is?" Wang Jing was hesitating to ask about the summer cooperation, and now that he spoke first, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Xia smiled, he could see that Wang Jing still had a bit of a literary temperament, and he was not as shameless, undisciplined, and without a lower limit as in later generations.

"It's a romantic comedy called 'Best Friend'. He then said, "It's about the young man Xu Dinggui, who was originally Xu Dingfu's half-brother and grew up in the United States since childhood. Subsequently, his father died, and his uncle personally invited him to return to Hong Kong to inherit the ancestral business of the Xu family. Fu was unwilling to share the family property with his younger brother, and sent three bad friends to teach the noble. But Gui and the three bad friends turned out to be friends, and the rich treacherous plan failed, so they had to admit defeat, recognize your brothers, and take care of the family business together. ”

Summer is talking about Wang Jing's classic pickle girl comedy "Best Friend". This drama starring Liu Dehua, Qiu Shuzhen, Cao Charli, Feng Qifan and Chen Baixiang once won a super high box office of more than 20 million, ranking ninth in the annual box office list, which can be said to be a quite classic Hong Kong film.

In fact, Wang Jing also has a more exciting pickled girl comedy - "Hardcover Chasing Girls". It's a pity that Zhou Yanfa, one of the leading actors, is rushing to shoot "The True Color of Heroes", and the other female lead Zhang Manyu is filming "Police Story", and neither of them has a schedule. So Summer had to settle for the next best thing and took out "Best Friend" first.

"It's a good story, and it's funny. Wang Jing nodded and said. He is very interested in this drama, because he has already made "The Frog Prince", "I Love Rolando", "Flower Heart", "Modern Cinderella" and other "chasing girls" type films. The mastery of this kind of film can be said to be very familiar, and it is not difficult at all.

"Okay, Director Wang, you just think it's good. Summer smiled, "Then you'll write the script." How's it going, are there any difficulties?"

"No, no. Wang Jing waved his hand.

He is a screenwriter himself, and writing a script is a piece of cake for him, and it doesn't take two or three days to figure out a script.

And he also understands that Summer is taking care of him. Because he is a well-known screenwriter himself. This script can be written by himself, and he can save a lot of money for the script.

"Thank you Mr. Xia for taking care of me, I will definitely write the script well. Wang Jing said gratefully.

"Okay, I believe in Director Wang's strength. Xia also smiled and said, "By the way, Director Wang, do you still have a contract with the Shaw Brothers now?

"I signed a two-year contract with Shaw Brothers for seven films, as long as I helped them make seven films in two years. As for me making movies for other companies. It's my freedom, and Shaw has no right to intervene. Wang Jing explained, "But I think I can't make those seven movies." ”

Summer was relieved to hear him say this.

Wang Jing is a rare talent, and he doesn't want to just invite him here and have to send him out.

"That's good, then would you like to sign with our company? I don't dare to say anything else, at least three movies a year. As long as you're willing to shoot. I don't have a ceiling. Summer took the opportunity to ask again.

"How is the remuneration calculated?" asked the king, with a careful pause.

At least three films a year. There is no upper limit, for Wang Jing, it is simply to give him money.

Because he is known as the "fast gunman" when he makes movies, he tried to make a movie in three weeks at the earliest. Even if the speed is doubled, if you shoot a movie in six weeks. can shoot nine dramas a year. If the pay is good, then he is really rich.

"The salary is tentatively set at 200,000, plus 10% of the Hong Kong box office dividends, how about it?" Summer asked.

"Really?!No kidding, right?" Wang Jing barely believed his ears.

Every time he shoots a film at Shaw Brothers, the salary is only 20,000 yuan. is the one with the lowest director fee in Shaw Brothers. However, he has the highest dividend ratio, and can get 10% of the Hong Kong box office. Now the treatment offered in the summer, the dividend ratio remains the same, but the salary has increased fivefold, which makes Wang Jing a little ecstatic.

"Of course it's true, I'm not joking with you. Summer nodded earnestly.

"Great, of course I do. Wang Jing then nodded violently, Xia was really worried that his neck would suddenly break.

Looking at his reaction, Summer knew that he had given him a high salary, but he didn't regret it at all. can invite a talent like Wang Jing, even if the treatment is doubled, he is happy.

"Okay, then let's sign the contract, okay?" Summer then laughed.

Wang Jing was also afraid that Xia would regret it, and was worried that the fat in his mouth would run away, so he nodded with a smile and signed a ten-year contract with Xia in one go.

"Welcome Director Wang to officially join our Tianxia Pictures, and in the future, everyone will work together, work together, and make money together!" Xia held Wang Jing's hand and smiled happily.

"Thank you, thank you. Wang Jing also smiled happily, "Mr. Xia, I must work hard to make more money for the company!"

Ever since Shaw closed his doors, he was in a panic, fearing that he would become an orphan that no one wanted. Unexpectedly, he was very moved by the fact that he appreciated himself so much in the summer, and he was determined to work hard for the company and repay the kindness of the summer.

……

After signing Wang Jing, I couldn't help but feel good in the summer.

After the company dealt with the matter and instructed the staff to continue to pay close attention to the promotion and distribution of "Zombie Family", he went to the crew of "Dragon's Heart" with the script.

"Ah Tian, congratulations! I heard that last night's premiere was very successful, it's really good! There is another blockbuster movie!" Cheng Long said with envy.

Summer is now taking one step at a time, walking steadily and quickly, but I don't know where the road under my feet is. "Police Story" has not yet been filmed, and he has no idea whether he can succeed in transforming with this film.

"Brother Long, you're not bad. "Police Story" and "Dragon's Heart" are both great movies, and trust me, these two films are sure to be very successful. Summer said with a smile.

"I thank you for your auspicious words, I hope so. Cheng Long smiled.

Summer also knows that Cheng Long has been under a lot of pressure lately. "Police Story" invested 60 million Hong Kong dollars, and the wooden house that was destroyed during the arrest of drug dealers in the opening chapter alone cost 4 million Hong Kong dollars to build the scene. If it fails at the box office and the audience does not approve of it, then he is unlucky.

"Brother Long, don't worry so much. You played "Five Lucky Stars" before, and at the beginning of the year, you played "Lucky Stars", in both movies, you played the Royal Hong Kong Police, and the box office and word of mouth are also very good, which proves that the audience still recognizes your image as a policeman. So you don't have to worry that the audience won't be able to accept your new image. Summer persuaded.

"Really?" Cheng Long asked happily when he heard this.

He has always been the image of a kung fu kid in the early Republic of China, such as "Serpentine Trickster", "Drunken Fist", "Young Master Dragon" and so on, which has won the love of the majority of fans. Now that he has turned to an urban hot-blooded detective, he is a little worried that if the transformation is not successful, the audience will be dissatisfied.

Because there were many well-known actors before, because the transformation was unsuccessful, they were not recognized by the audience, so their careers declined and plummeted.

So he's been worried, he's under a lot of pressure. In order to film "Police Story" well, he even slept only three hours a day, which can be said to have put all his heart and soul into this drama.

"Of course it's true, Brother Long. Summer nodded firmly.

"Thank you, Ah Tian. Listening to your words, my heart is much more relaxed. Cheng Long breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I have time to come to our crew to take a look, I really need you to help me unravel." ”

"No problem. Summer also happily agreed. Go to the crew of "Police Story" to visit the class and meet Lin Qingxia, why not!

……

After chatting with Cheng Long, he went to see Hong Jingbao again in the summer.

"Brother Hong!" he said with a smile.

"Ah Tian, congratulations! The newspaper was full of praise, it seems that the box office is good this time. Hong Jingbao said with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Hong, for his words. Summer nodded, then took out a file bag from her arms, "This is a new script I wrote for you, you can take a look." ”

"What a good script?!I'll take a look at it too. Cheng Long's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Xia pulling something out of his arms from a distance, his eyes lit up and he walked over quickly. As soon as he heard that it was a script, he immediately took it first.

"You stinky boy......" Hong Jingbao couldn't help but laugh and scold when he saw it. This Ah Long, he has to grab everything, and he has to fight for the first place in everything, he really can't stand it.

"Brother Long, that script is not for you. Summer smiled.

Cheng Long ignored him and opened it, "Summer Lucky Star?" He couldn't help but be stunned.

Summer nodded, "This movie is a sequel to "Lucky Stars", and I wrote it specifically for Brother Hong. ”

"Oh?!The sequel to "Lucky Stars"?!Then show me it. When Hong Jingbao heard this, he immediately smiled happily.

"Lucky Stars" earned 30 million at the box office, setting a box office record in Hong Kong. This sequel is filmed casually, and it must have a box office of more than 20 million. Of course, Hong Jingbao should pay attention to it.

"Ah Tian, don't be kind to one over the other. You've just written a script for Brother Sanmao, and you've left me aside. Cheng Long saw that it was the script of the sequel to "Lucky Stars", and knew that it was indeed not for himself, so he couldn't help but say with some disappointment.

The summer script is terrible now, and someone spent two million to ask for a draft, but he didn't agree. However, Cheng Long knew that he had written several scripts for Hong Jingbao in the summer, which made him feel a little envious, jealous and hateful.

"Brother Long, don't be angry, don't you just want a script, of course it's no problem, I'll help you write one later." Summer smiled and agreed.

"Then it's settled. Cheng Long smiled happily when he heard this. (To be continued.) )
