Beijing, Chaoyang North Road, Fosun International Center Office Building.

Diao Yinan got on the elevator, took a deep breath, tightened the document bag in his hand, and then pressed 27, which is where Dafeng Film and Television is located!

He is a native of Xi'an, graduated from the Department of Chinese Opera Literature, and studied screenwriting.

became famous very early, and in 97, he and a few classmates tinkered with the script of "Love Malatang", which set a record of 12 consecutive months of continuous screening in the mainland, and finally received a box office result of 30 million, second only to "Titanic" and "Party A and Party B" that year;

In the second year, he drummed up "Love to the End", which is a very famous new screenwriter in the circle...

Nowadays, the domestic film and television industry is in its infancy, and if Diao Yinan continues to develop along the route of screenwriters, he is definitely likely to become a big man in the screenwriting industry!

Last year, someone asked him to write a TV series, and the price of one episode was 8,000 yuan!

This price is already very high, you must know that the price of most screenwriters is only 4,000 yuan per episode...

Shi Hang, the screenwriter of "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan", his salary for one episode is 6,000 yuan.

It's a pity that Diao Yinan's ambition is not here!

He wanted to make a movie, retreated for half a month, conceived a script called "Uniform", the script is available, the director is ready to do it himself, the shooting team can be pulled directly from his former classmates, the professional background is so good, and the connections are ready-made!

Now it's time to invest...

Ya doesn't want to take the path of independent films, it's the kind of banned and then famous, he wants his movies to be released in China.

Although he was born in Chinese opera, he does not have the confrontational spirit of Zhang Xianmin...

Then you have to find a regular studio with political backing!

Although the Chinese opera has a good relationship with the Beijing Film Studio, it will not invest hundreds of thousands of dollars to realize the dreams of others...

After all, there is only one Wang Banbi!

He thought that he might as well spend money to buy an issuance indicator - Zhang Yuan did this at the beginning, and then he didn't even bother to buy the index...

To buy an indicator, you have to ask at least 50,000 yuan, which is still the price code of the year...

But what, Diao Yinan has no money...

Therefore, this road is equivalent to being blocked!

Someone gave him an idea, saying that there is a private film and television investment company in Beijing called Dafeng Film and Television, and the boss is from the West Film Studio, which has a good relationship with the system and is reliable.

So, here he was...

……

She has long said that Chen Yun understands film operations, and she knows that now making movies in Chinese mainland, either you have to make a big investment, play is a heartbeat, or make a big profit, or lose money; or make independent films, win awards overseas, and then sell copyrights.

That's why she is optimistic about "Doglike Years", because it is a working script that exposes the hard life of Chinese college students in the 90s.

She has a good impression of Diao Yinan, and feels that this person is very reliable, with a loyal and honest face.

Turning over the script, the story of "Uniform" is very simple, very typical of Chinese characteristics: Wang Xiaojian, a tailor, accidentally got a uniform left by a traffic policeman, and out of dissatisfaction with his social status and the need to raise money for his father's treatment, he began to wear a uniform, fined as a traffic policeman, fell in love...

In the script, Wang Xiaojian constantly changes between the identity of a tailor and a traffic policeman, not so much that he plays a traffic police officer to cheat money, but rather that he is intoxicated with the pleasure and satisfaction brought to him by the social role of the traffic police.

In the current bureaucratic differential order, Wang Xiaojian, as a small tailor, is an object of bullying and insults: the factory janitor yells at him, and the laid-off workers use him as a target to vent, adding up his fists.

Wang Xiaojian was very dissatisfied with this social status, and he rebelled in his own way: he reported Fuping, a laid-off worker who smashed a factory safe, he went in front of the janitor and punched him after putting on a police uniform, and he used fines and bad words to balance his mind when dealing with passing cars.

In Wang Xiaojian's world, the police uniform is not just a tool to make money, but represents power and majesty...

After reading the script, Chen Yun thought about it for about three minutes and decided to invest!

This story has a selling point, and it should be in line with the taste of foreigners...

Definitely make a profit!

So she asked directly: "How much do you expect to invest in this movie?"

"Ah, 600,000 is enough!"

Diao Yinan didn't expect her to ask directly about the investment amount, and he was a little flustered, he would have thought that Chen Yun would ask some questions about movies...

“… Is 600,000 enough? I think I have to ask for at least 1 million!"

Chen Yun has worked as a producer and has an innate intuition about the cost of films.

A movie like "Uniform", unless it is made into a documentary, no matter how much you save, it will have to be more than a million!

Gao Xiaosong's first movie "When the Flowers Bloomed" cost 1.2 million, and it was still a musical movie.

Looking at Diao Yinan, who didn't know how to answer, Chen Yun suddenly smiled: "That's it, I'll give you one million first, but I'll arrange a producer to follow the crew." ”

Without waiting for Diao Yinan to say anything, Chen Yun continued: "Don't worry, he won't interfere with you, at most supervise it." ”

“… Thank you!"

Diao Yinan suddenly felt a sense of death for his confidant...

"Have you submitted this script for review?"

"Not yet, I'm worried that I won't be able to pass the trial..."

“… Don't worry, the West Film Studio still has the right to issue licenses for the time being, you shoot first, I'll find someone to buy a distribution index!"

Diao Yinan nodded and was about to leave, Chen Yun suddenly asked, "By the way, do you lack actors in this movie?"

“… I didn't think about using a professional actor!"

"Why?"

“… At first, it was because there was no money..."

"Aren't you rich now, of course you have to use professional actors, so that I have the right person for the heroine, the male lead... Let's go to the National Theatre and choose one for you!"

……

Diao Yinan walked out of the office happily, Chen Yun sent him all the way to the elevator, and then instructed: "The day after tomorrow at the latest, let's go to the theater to find actors, don't forget!"

“… Thank you, Mr. Chen!"

"You're welcome, it's all for the movie!"

'Ding...'

When the elevator arrived, the door opened, and a Chen Dong wearing a hat came out of it, and when he saw Chen Yun, he was startled, and then saw Diao Yinan again, and hurriedly greeted: "Diao screenwriter, are you here too?"

“… Chen Dong?"

"Yes, you remember me!"

“… What are you?"

"Oh, I'm an actor from Dafeng Film and Television, and I just came back from Hong Kong, no, hurry up and come over to say hello to the boss!"

“… Haha, I'll go down first, there's something going on. ”

Diao Yinan was a little embarrassed, found an excuse, and turned off the elevator...

Glancing at his brother: "... Do you know him?"

"I know, I've run tricks in "Bath" before, what is he doing here?"
