Chapter 42 Preparation and Equity

"The Chef of the Flower Teapot" is a costume food drama romance light comedy, which also adds some detective plots.

The orphan girl Fang Yidao was knocked unconscious and sent to the sedan chair, and instead of Fang Yao, the talented daughter of the Fang family, she married Shen Yong, the bully young master of the prefect's family.

Fang Yiscoop, who has a bun face and big eyes but is attractive, is optimistic by nature, has superb cooking skills and knows a little about martial arts, even a rolling pin can dance when he is angry, but he doesn't know anything about poetry and songs, but after marrying into the Shen family, he is quite loved by his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

It can really be said that one thing descends one thing, Shen Yong reluctantly married Fang Yiscoop, but gradually fell in love with this fake talented girl who didn't know poetry and books but could accompany him to fight, drink, and fight.

The beautiful chef also staged the tame of the husband gorgeously. Sincerity is the golden stone, the prodigal son will eventually turn back, and with the company of Fang Yiscoop, Shen Yong will finally succeed.

If "Shanshan" is a modern version of the daily life of a young couple, then "Chef Fang" is an ancient version of the daily life of a young couple.

The foodie has become the male protagonist Shen Yong, the female protagonist is a chef, the little couple, you feed me a mouthful, I will peel an orange for you, sprinkle all kinds of dog food, show affection, sweet and greasy.

However, unlike "Shanshan", which has many kiss scenes, "Chef Fang" shows a very pure affection, the little couple holds hands and feeds the food, and the highest scale of the whole drama is only Shen Yong who secretly kissed Fang Yispoon's cheek.

In fact, in the previous life, "Chef Fang" was not much popular, and the popularity was far less than that of "The Promotion of the Crown Princess", which was also an online drama, but the whole drama was well-made, and the actors' acting skills were also online, with a good reputation, and a Douban score of 8.0.

The reason why "Chef Fang" is not a big hit, in addition to the lack of popularity of the novel's IP, the actors are all newcomers, and the publicity is not strong enough. It's more the same as "Shanshan", the plot is too simple and bland, the drama conflict is not enough, to put it bluntly, it's not bloody enough!

The relationship between the male and female protagonists is basically very good from the beginning, no abuse, no crying, no trouble, no hanging; the prefect and his wife know that Fang Yisco is not a talented woman of the Fang family, and she is not a good mandarin duck; the second female is only jealous and not vicious; the only villain, the prince, has not done anything bad, and even in the whole play, there is no real bad guy.

Interspersed with some detective plots, but the cases are too simple.

In addition to the food, the selling point of the play is that the plot is relaxed and warm, but it is too niche.

Li Zhe didn't think about the fire when he filmed "Chef Fang", but more because the role of Fang Yispoon is too likable, and it is suitable to be used to brush up on Yingbao's national favorability.

Speaking of which, the role of Ying Bao and Fang Yisco is still a bit related.

When "The Legend of Chu Qiao" was broadcast, a spoonful of army ran to swipe the screen to "marry a wife and marry a spoonful", and there is also a stalk of "three thousand weak water, only take one spoonful" in the novel "The Legend of Chu Qiao"! In this life, Li Zhe simply asked Ying Bao to play Fang Yijiao.

On January 8, 09, in the afternoon, Li Zhe's studio

Inside the office

"Xiao Zhe, there are only ten days left before the Chinese New Year, and you still have to set up a project to shoot "Chef Fang", so you are too anxious!" The young lady glanced at Li Zhe, picked up the coffee and took a sip.

"Set up the project first, prepare the crew, and when I come back from my trip with Yingbao after the New Year, I will start the film immediately!" After speaking, Li Zhe glanced at his little girlfriend who was sitting next to him and looked down at the script.

In order to broadcast "Sword Three" before it, Li Zhe set "Shanshan" in late June, that is, in less than 6 months left, he wants to shoot "Chef Fang" and "Destined", and the time is already very tight!

"You two can go out to travel, but pity me for staying alone and working hard!" the young lady put on a self-pitying expression.

"Okay, sister, don't pretend to be pitiful again! When the crew of "Chef Fang" is ready to start filming, I'll give you a week's vacation, don't you want to go to the Maldives? Then go ahead, I'll reimburse you for the expenses!" Li Zhe shook his head amusedly. The young lady still has the ability, but the dedication is really not very strong!

"Then thank you, big boss!" The young lady suddenly smiled again.

"Xiao Zhe, how much does "Chef Fang" need to invest?"

"At least 15 million!" Li Zhe estimated in his heart.

"More than Shanshan?" the young lady was a little surprised.

"Yes!" Li Zhe nodded.

The original "Chef Fang" is very well-made, and it is more attentive than some Taiwanese dramas. was laughed at by netizens that the poor crew and the dozens of delicacies in the play are all genuine. The costumes are also very beautiful, not worse than some big-investment TV dramas. Even horseback riding is a real horse, in fact, in many movies and TV series, fake horses or stand-ins are also used.

The original version of "Chef Fang" invested 3,000, or on the premise of using a large number of newcomers, although the current shooting cost is not as high as that of later generations, but if you want to shoot a quality that is not inferior to the original, it will cost at least 15 million.

"Director, who are you going to look for?"

"Li Xiaojiang!"

"A young director who graduated from the play!" Li Zhe explained. Li Xiaojiang is also the director of the original "Chef Fang", and he is too lazy to change people.

The young lady glanced at Li Zhe strangely, she had never heard of this Li Xiaojiang, and she didn't know where Li Zhe dug it up!

"Xiao Zhe, who are you going to look for, actor?"

"Li Xiaohong and Chang Cheng, let them play the roles of Shen Yibo and Mrs. Shen, and when the rest are contacted with Director Li Xiaojiang, they will arrange auditions for public casting!

The acting skills of the actors in the original version of "Chef Fang" are basically online, including some small supporting roles, all of which are good, and only the actor who plays the second female Fang Yao has a poor image, and she really doesn't look like a talented woman who knows how to learn. Li Xiaohong and Chang Cheng, the two of them played very well, better than many domestic actors who played their parents' files.

For example, her mother's professional household Zhang Kaili, that is, the big beauty in "Let's Get Married", her mother, can only stare and roar angrily, and her acting skills are exaggerated to death, which makes people play when they see it, that is, she acted in a "Desire" that made her eat for a lifetime!

After discussing some other details with the young lady.

Li Zhe turned his head to look at his little girlfriend, "Yingbao, do you have any questions?"

"I..." Ying Bao was stunned, she didn't expect her boyfriend to ask her.

"I don't have any problems!" she has always thought that actors should be good as long as they act well, and they shouldn't care about anything else.

"Yingbao, I plan to transfer 14% of the studio's shares to you after a while, and then you will be the third largest shareholder of the company, so you have to pay more attention to the affairs of the studio in the future!" Li Zhe said with a smile looking at his little girlfriend's little expression that had nothing to do with me.

“… Transfer the equity to me, no, absolutely not, I can't ask for it!" Ying Bao hurriedly shook his head and refused. She already feels very burdened by her boyfriend's side, how can she take his equity for nothing.

"Li Zhe!" The young lady also shook her head slightly.

The copyrights of Li Zhe's works are all in the studio, and 14% of the copyrights are worth at least three or four hundred million, or the current value, and it will be more than several times in the future.

She knows that this younger brother is a loser, but this is too loser, and the two are only in love, not married yet!

That's right, Li Zhe is a loser, others are rich losers, he is a loser if he has no money!

For example, in the 11th year of the last life, the young lady wanted to partner with someone to start an entertainment company, and the money in her hand was not enough. After Li Zhe found out about the matter, he took out all his savings and lent it to the young lady to invest!

In fact, it's not much, just five or six hundred thousand, but that was the money he was originally going to get married! Because of this, the sister broke up with Li Zhe, and this is also the time he recently got married.

"Yingbao, it is an on-the-job share, there are years of service, and it will be transferred to you after you become popular! You can see it as the incentive equity that the company gives you in order to tie you up!" Li Zhe looked at his little girlfriend with a smile.

"But—" Ying Bao hesitated.

"Alright, that's it!"

Although Li Zhe is a loser, he is not stupid! No matter how deep his feelings are related to money, there will be estrangement. In different statuses, people's interests are different!

Yingbao is very satisfied now because she is just a little trick, but when she becomes popular, she will naturally have greater interests to appeal, which has nothing to do with feelings.

In order to retain stars, major film and television companies will also let each other buy and hold a certain amount of company shares, and Li Zhe can't treat Ying Bao badly just because she is his girlfriend.

And the young lady's dedication is not strong, and he doesn't have the intention of making a big studio, so Li Zhe plans to wait for his little girlfriend to grow up in a few years, so he will simply separate the film and television department and hand it over to her to take care of.
