Chapter 399: Who Said This Kid Was Foolish? (2-in-1)

Hearing that Zhou Xing finally began to ask, Qi Jianxun smiled and said, "What do you think of Huagui Pictures?"

"Huagui Pictures?" is Peng Xingui?," Zhou Xing asked. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Qi Jianxun nodded.

Zhou Xing of Huagui Pictures certainly knows that among domestic film and television production companies, Warner ranks first, while Huagui Pictures floats at the end of the top ten.

Although the top ten are at the end, this is the top ten nationwide, Huagui Pictures' annual revenue will at least exceed one billion, and the annual net profit of shareholders can reach the level of one or two billion.

And these data are still in Zhou Xing's impression before the ban, he hasn't paid much attention to these in the past three years, and he doesn't know it, but now is a good time for the entertainment industry, and it is probably not difficult for Huagui Pictures' revenue to double compared with three years ago.

As the founder of Huagui Pictures, Peng Xingui is not an upstart in the circle, but a big name who has been famous for many years.

When Zhou Xing lifted the ban and went home, because Director Qi was filming the "Famous World" produced by Huagui Pictures, Zhou Xing introduced Zhou Yang to be a martial artist, and he saw Peng Xingui at that time.

That time, at the beginning, because Qi Jianxun wanted to change his martial arts style and didn't want to use the Xiangjiang martial arts finger found by Huagui Pictures, Peng Xingui was a little resistant, and he also had some contempt for Zhou Xing's words, and Zhou Xing was not to be outdone.

However, in the end, under the mediation of Qi Jianxun, Peng Xingui sold Qi Jianxun's face and took the initiative to apologize to Zhou Xing, Zhou Xing also slapped Peng Xingui on the back, and the two reconciled on the spot.

After that, Zhou Yang easily beat the well-known martial arts finger of Xiangjiang to the ground, and also won Peng Xingui's attention.

Later, Zhou Xing learned from Zhou Yang that after filming for a few days, he saw Zhou Yang's true talent and learning, and was also recognized by Qi Jianxun, so Peng Xingui directly asked Zhou Yang to serve as the martial arts director of "Famous World", and Xiangjiang's martial arts team also became Zhou Yang's followers, doing some specific things under Zhou Yang's guidance.

This drama was completed a year ago, and Zhou Yang not only got a generous remuneration, but also received praise from Peng Xingui at the finale banquet and was rewarded with a big red envelope.

Not only that, because of his outstanding performance in this drama, Zhou Yang has now also begun to emerge in the film and television industry, and as soon as this side ended, he received invitations from several crew producers to serve as a martial arts instructor.

Therefore, Zhou Yang is still very grateful to Peng Xingui, and told Zhou Xing several times when he went home for the New Year.

At that time, Zhou Xing said to Zhou Yang that he would return him a favor if he had the opportunity in the future, no matter whether Peng Xingui did it for Qi Jianxun's sake, or took the initiative to show favor when he saw the speed of his popularity, but Zhou Xing still accepted his feelings if he could have this heart.

It's just that Zhou Xing didn't expect that it didn't take long for Qi Jianxun to mention Huagui Pictures.

Seeing Zhou Xing's expression, Qi Jianxun knew that Zhou Xing was hesitating, so he said: "You have also been in the film and television industry, it is not that simple, it does not mean that you can be broadcast on TV once you shoot it, there are still many aspects of the relationship that need to be touched, if you don't have a certain strength, it is difficult to play, which is why small production companies can't make ends meet, and big companies have to pick it up." ”

Zhou Xing nodded and said, "Nacheng, please go back and help make an appointment to meet and see what opinions they have on their side." ”

He is the kind of person who doesn't like to owe favors, and if he receives a favor, he wants to pay it back as soon as possible.

And what Qi Jianxun said is the truth, now the laughter factory is still a small shrimp for those film and television companies, and many doorways are not clear to Zhou Xing, if Huagui Pictures can lead the way, it will make the laughter factory take a lot of detours, which is also very beneficial to the future development.

As for the TV series "Wulin Gaiden", which will definitely be a hit, Zhou Xing will not feel any loss because he has taken away the profits, think about it carefully, with Huagui Pictures joining, maybe he will earn more than he can do it alone, and it's not just about money.

On the one hand, as Qi Jianxun said, if there is no experience in Huagui Pictures, they will inevitably take detours in distribution and promotion, which will consume a certain amount of manpower, material and financial resources, and even may not be completed in the end.

Secondly, if "Wulin Gaiden" does not pass the market test, such a sitcom dressed in martial arts may not necessarily be valued by TV stations, and even if it is purchased, the price may not be high.

Just like Zhou Xing's previous life CCTV also said, "Wulin Gaiden" took a lot of risks in prime time back then, but it is conceivable that their positioning is not high, and it is true that the purchase price of a single episode announced to the outside world is just a disguise, and it would be good to have half of it after deducting water, and compared with "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which had a single episode purchase price of nearly one million that year, even if there is water, it is much higher than "Wulin Gaiden", not to mention the sky-high TV series that often cost millions of episodes later.

Whether it is Zhou Xing or Laughter Factory, it is still not enough for TV stations, and they have not produced any TV series before, so the price may not be as high as in the previous life, but if you join Huagui Pictures, the price will definitely be much higher.

Then there is publicity, Zhou Xing and they are affected by the channel, and the publicity is definitely not in place, even if the same money is thrown out, compared with Huagui Pictures, the effect will be much worse.

Based on these considerations, Zhou Xing also agreed with Qi Jianxun's opinion in his heart, that is, if he finds Huagui Pictures, not only will he not suffer a loss, but he will be more efficient, saving time, effort and money, not to mention, he can also increase the price and increase his popularity, and the impact of "Wulin Gaiden" may exceed that of that year.

Seeing that Zhou Xing understood his hard work, Qi Jianxun smiled with relief: "Okay, I'll contact, you don't have to worry about it, I'll call you when the time comes." ”

Zhou Xing hurriedly thanked him.

The next day, Qi Jianxun made an appointment with Du Mingsong, the vice president of Huagui Pictures.

Because "Wulin Gaiden" is directed by Qi Jianxun, starring Zhou Xing, and is also a work written by Zhou Xing, Huagui Pictures is naturally optimistic, but there are some differences in some details.

For example, Zhou Xing's opinion is that Qi Jianxun and himself are responsible for the filming process, and Huagui Pictures must not interfere in any way, while in other links, Huagui Pictures is responsible.

Of course, Du Mingsong disagreed: "Even if we don't interfere in the specific shooting, we must have someone in terms of producers, although I believe that with Director Qi's experience and Mr. Zhou's ability, the level of this drama is only high, but after all, we are also one of the investors, and if there is no producer, it can't be said, and the rules of the industry are the same." ”

Zhou Xing has his own insistence: "Everyone has their own opinions and opinions, and this drama was created by me, so I naturally know it best, I don't want unpleasant things to happen in the future because of a big disagreement in a certain aspect of filming, what do you say, Mr. Du?"

Du Mingsong frowned: "Mr. Zhou, it's a bit arbitrary for you to say that, maybe it's your first time in the film and television industry, and you don't know the operation process, and the reason why producers are called producers is because they have experience and can grasp the market, and in rare cases, they will give opinions on filming because of personal preferences." ”

As he spoke, Du Mingsong leaned forward, with oppressive physical cues, and smiled slowly:

"One more person to check the checks, it's better than one person to decide, no matter how strong a person's energy is, no matter how capable he is, it's not always a machine, and it will be overwhelmed, if the problem is found at the time, it will definitely be better than finding out after filming, you have to understand that the producer is not making trouble in the crew, but escorting, this prejudice can not be had. ”

Du Mingsong's psychological hints didn't have any effect on Zhou Xing, he smiled, stood up and stretched out his hand and said:

"Mr. Du, it would be a pity if you insisted on this. ”

Zhou Xing's sudden move caught Du Mingsong off guard, and Zhou Xing stood there, looking down at himself, which made Du Mingsong feel oppressed.

Du Mingsong was dumbfounded for a while, stunned, looked at Zhou Xing, and then at Qi Jianxun, in a dilemma.

Du Mingsong just said that the rules of the producer are just to watch people cook, just like when Qi Jianxun filmed "Famous in the World" before, Huagui Pictures did not have any requirements, giving Qi Jianxun the greatest freedom, and he had the final say in everything on the set.

Although this "Wulin Gaiden" is also directed by Qi Jianxun, the producer is not only wholly owned by Huagui Pictures, but also the Laughter Factory.

On the surface, Du Mingsong is trying to insert a producer, but in fact, he is testing Zhou Xing's bottom line, if Zhou Xing agrees, then Du Mingsong will definitely quote a high proportion of the structure, and then wait for Zhou Xing to bargain, and the final result, they will take the initiative is certain.

As for this high proportion, it is not the proportion of investment, but the proportion of revenue sharing.

Before meeting Zhou Xing, Du Mingsong communicated with Peng Xingui that Zhou Xing's scripts, actors, etc., will definitely be converted into the investment ratio, and Zhou Xing insists on sharing the capital contribution ratio by 55%, but if Zhou Xing himself is also in the crew, it is obvious that Zhou Xing wants to take the lion's share.

In this way, Du Mingsong is bound to kill Zhou Xing's sharpness in a way, business negotiations are like this, there is no friendship, only the tug of war between you and me.

Whether it is Du Mingsong or Peng Xingui, they have not experienced the scene of Zhou Xing's negotiation with Jiangnan Satellite TV Fan Changming a few days ago, so they naturally don't understand Zhou Xing's change now, thinking that dealing with a hairy boy like Zhou Xing, no matter how talented he is, but limited by experience and experience, he will definitely be eaten to death by his own side in the end.

At the beginning, the progress of the negotiations was indeed going according to Du Mingsong's plan, Du Mingsong had already seen the dawn of victory, but Zhou Xing's sudden reaction without warning directly disrupted Du Mingsong's rhythm and exceeded expectations.

Now Du Mingsong is tantamount to being framed by Zhou Xing, and he is in a dilemma.

If you don't agree, this is impossible, with Qi Jianxun is the guarantee of ratings, not to mention the addition of a recent king of ratings Zhou Xing, who is the first TV series after Zhou Xing's comeback, the attention must only be high, not low, if you give up in vain, I don't know how many peers will scramble.

And if you agree now, you can't get your face up, and you can compromise at this time, then it will be very unfavorable to talk about achievements at that time, and you will definitely be eaten to death by Zhou Xing!

Therefore, Du Mingsong stood up with a smile on his face, counteracting the pressure of Zhou Xing looking down at him, and at the same time, he said with a smile:

"Oh, Mr. Zhou, what are you doing, it's not so serious, aren't we still talking. Hehe, sit down first, don't get excited. ”

When pulling Zhou Xing to sit down, Du Mingsong's eyes turned to Qi Jianxun for help, and his intention was self-evident.

Qi Jianxun nodded slightly, coughed, smiled, and said: "It is normal for Zhou Xing to insist on this, any original author will have such a mentality, including me, and I am not used to my works being criticized by others." ”

Saying that, Qi Jianxun looked at Du Mingsong and said: "Mr. Du, I think this matter, it's not a big deal, the rule is that the dead are alive, even if you don't believe Zhou Xing, even I don't believe it, if there is any problem during the filming process, I will discuss it with Zhou Xing, if there is a disagreement between the two of us, I will have a meeting with you or the company's producer to discuss, what do you think?"

These words were obviously helping Zhou Xing speak, which made Du Mingsong, who originally expected Qi Jianxun to speak for him, extremely depressed, he was worried about a producer, but for the negotiations later.

Moreover, Du Mingsong didn't know if Qi Jianxun didn't understand his intentions, or if he understood his intentions, but he still chose to help Zhou Xing.

The two aspects represent Qi Jianxun's support for Zhou Xing, and it can also be seen that they have a great relationship.

After going through it in his mind, Du Mingsong felt that it was more likely to be the latter, after all, Qi Jianxun had been in the industry for many years, it was impossible not to have this eyesight, and it was not the first time he had cooperated with Huagui Pictures, so he should understand their style of doing things.

Thinking of this, Du Mingsong also understood Qi Jianxun's position, sighed in his heart, and didn't insist anymore, nodded and said:

"Since Director Qi said so, then listen to you, there will be no producer, but we will send a production director to be responsible for the communication between the two sides, as well as the drama and logistics, this is no problem, right?"

Zhou Xing had been in the crew in his previous life, and he also received the memory of the original owner in this life, of course, he understands the structure of the crew, and the general producer is indeed responsible for drama affairs and logistics, as well as the contact with investors, but the producer and the production director have very different voices.

To put it bluntly, the producer is the largest in the crew, and his status is higher than that of the director, but the production director is different, equivalent to the general manager of life, responsible for the crew's food, clothing, housing and transportation, at most, when the crew has something, he can report to the investor, and the investor will handle it.

Therefore, Zhou Xing naturally had no objection to this, and nodded and said: "Hehe, thank you Mr. Du for your understanding, I have no opinion on this." ”

Du Mingsong couldn't cry or laugh a little, but this depression could only be hidden in his heart, but there was a smile on his face, and he said:

"Since this is the case, let's divide the shooting schedule according to the script, and then formulate a budget to determine the proportion of investment and the proportion of the share between the two parties. ”

"Okay, it's up to you. Zhou Xing nodded seriously.

Du Mingsong had a violent impulse at this moment, listen to your uncle, when you get to these trivial arrangements, you start to listen to me, why didn't you listen to me just now?

Who said that this kid is young and easy to fool, especially better than a fox, the key is that he doesn't play cards according to common sense!
