Chapter 54: Male and Female
Tang Lin's surprise made the atmosphere in the large conference room a little silent.
In the end, it was Yang Xianlin who asked Tang Lin: "Xiao Tang, do you really want to make a movie, don't you just talk about it?"
Tang Lin thought for a while, and replied: "Actually, it's just a thought that suddenly flashed just now, but now that I think about it, our company can indeed make a movie to test the water, if we keep filming shows, it's so boring, we have to diversify, right?"
Mo Li opened her mouth at this time and said, "Mr. Tang, in the case of movies, will the budget exceed the funds available to our company now?"
Now according to international practice, although the development of the film and television industry is not as rapid as the development of the music scene, but the investment cost of a film is also floating between tens of millions, although Tang Lin is now famous, but film and television is a new field for him, and it is no different from telling the book of heaven to let others invest in him.
But if Tang Lin wants to smash all this money into it, he will definitely spend most of the money, if the final results are good, it is still acceptable, but if once the bamboo basket is empty, then the company will instantly fall into a predicament, and she is also one of the shareholders of the company, she has to remind Tang Lin of this situation.
Even though Tang Lin has a lot of fans now, these are all fans, and the fans are still 0, so how much support from fans can get in the end depends on God's will.
When Tang Lin heard this, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Mo, if you want to shoot a movie, I will come up with the funds myself, and it will be regarded as my own rising work, which will not occupy the company's resources, and I have made a little profit outside during this time." ”
Mo Li asked in surprise, "You haven't been taking any money in the company lately, and you have made so much money so quickly?"
Mo Li knows Tang Lin's family history, although his family has opened a company, but it is far from being as good as his current dawn film and television entertainment company, so it is impossible to say that it is impossible to throw tens of millions of dollars for Tang Lin to make movies and play, and I haven't heard of Tang Lin's income before, so the only thing left is that this guy made a lot of money in the Goryeo Special Zone.
"The show "The Masked Singer" can give you tens of millions? Yang Xianlin also asked in surprise, counting the shows he directed, and giving such a high salary to the guests at one time is completely nothing.
Tang Lin touched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment: "That...... It also gave me more than 20 million, and if I make a movie, it should be able to support me to shoot something that is not too expensive to test the water. ”
Tang Lin suddenly looked at Yang Xianlin again at this time, and asked very hopefully: "Uncle Yang, why don't you introduce me to a better film director? You should know some such directors, right?"
"You kid, you really rushed to you with your own money," Yang Xianlin looked at Tang Lin angrily, but soon said, "But I know me, but they are not too famous directors, after all, I am just an entertainment program director, and it is not uncommon for famous directors to make friends with me, if you don't mind, I can introduce you to a few." ”
Tang Lin hurriedly said: "No, no, no, it's just young, you should always have to make a career for yourself, right? That, Uncle Yang, I don't know if you have some directors with experience in shooting costume movies? Don't be the kind of completely Westernized, I want to make a Chinese-style costume romance drama." ”
Yang Xianlin frowned and said: "Ancient costumes? This is not easy to find, now costume movies are not very popular, you are too foolish, right? In an industry that is not very prosperous, you have also specially picked an unpopular type, so you might as well directly give your money to the company to support me in filming other variety shows, as long as you give me an idea, I will give you a post without saying a word!"
Yang Xianlin's desire for the show could no longer be contained.
When Tang Lin heard this, after thinking for a while, he said to Mo Li and them: "Mr. Mo, Teacher Ou and Brother Bai, you go get busy first, I'll talk to Uncle Yang about personal matters, forgive me, forgive me!"
Tang Lin gave an eviction order to these three people, although Bai Ze and they were very strange that they couldn't hear anything, but after hearing what Tang Lin said was private, they didn't ask any more, but when they left, they didn't forget to complain about Tang Lin's selfishness, and didn't tell them a few company elders about anything.
After the door of the conference room was closed, Tang Lin stood up and walked to Yang Xianlin's side and whispered something, and the expression on Yang Xianlin's face as he listened became more and more surprised, as if he had heard something incredible.
"What?!, are you going to let Bai Ze and Xiaoqian ......," Yang Xianlin finally shouted in surprise.
Tang Lin sat his body upright, nodded at Yang Xianlin very firmly and replied: "Well, Uncle Yang, that's what I planned, and according to my budget, the input cost of this movie doesn't need too much at all, and the salary of the main participants can be ignored at all, as long as we find some more tricks, the whole movie basically belongs to our company's internal works." ”
"That's the case, but don't you think you're paying too much for the two of them like this? If you don't have any attendance after the follow-up release, your big money will be wasted!" Yang Xianlin said with some embarrassment.
Tang Lin smiled indifferently, and then said: "Don't worry, Uncle Yang, I don't feel at ease with this money, I don't know where to use it now in my card, Brother Bai and Teacher Ou have paid too much for the company, I should always give them some returns, right?
Yang Xianlin looked at Tang Lin very seriously, but he didn't see the meaning of joking from Tang Lin's face, and after sighing, he said to Tang Lin with appreciation and reproach: "You kid, I really don't know how to say hello! But since you have decided to do so, I support you in doing so, director, I will contact you this time to see if I can contact some better ones, and try not to hold you back." ”
Tang Lin also looked at Yang Xianlin very seriously at this time and said, "Uncle Yang, actually...... I still hope that you can be this director, although it is said that the interlacing is like a mountain, but after all, you have held so many director positions, there will always be some figuratives in the two places, if there is anything that is not very good, I think you can find an assistant director to assist you, right? This matter is a big deal for Big Brother Bai and Teacher Ou, don't you want to be involved?"
After Yang Xianlin heard this, he hesitated: "This...... Xiao Tang, if I don't want to get involved, it's a lie, Xiao Qian has been working with me for a long time, and I definitely want to be involved in her big things, but the problem now is that I don't have any experience in filmmaking!
After Tang Lin heard this, he said with a smile: "Uncle Yang, in fact, I know how to shoot this movie, and I can try to draw it in a sub-shot or something, so I don't need to worry too much about this, when the two of us shoot each other, if we don't understand something, we can learn from other experienced people, isn't it good, and I just said, we can find an assistant director, as long as it's your friend, if you explain the situation to him a little, the title of assistant director doesn't matter." ”
Tang Lin's words made Yang Xianlin quickly moved.
Seeing this, Tang Lin naturally cheered up and said: "Moreover, Uncle Yang, you have also been a variety show director for so many years, and it is also very appropriate to try other content, you can't just hang yourself on a tree like this, how boring is such a life!"
Yang Xianlin seemed to have finally relented, and said to Tang Lin: "Okay, since that's the case, I'll try it, as for the assistant director, I'll also try to find it here, hoping to find an old friend who can understand us and come over to support us personally!"
Tang Lin smiled at this, and said to Yang Xianlin as if encouraging: "Uncle Yang, you can do it!"
Yang Xianlin nodded, and suddenly asked Tang Lin again, "What are you going to tell Bai Ze and Xiao Qian over there?"
Tang Lin smiled mysteriously and said, "Cry poor!"
Yang Xianlin couldn't help but roll his eyes after hearing this, stood up from his position, and then said: "Anyway, I don't care about this, you can do it yourself!"
After finishing speaking, Yang Xianlin walked out of the door, but soon stopped, and then turned to Tang Lin and said: "By the way, there is still a problem with variety shows, don't fall behind, I am still waiting to shoot a better variety show, this time I only made a cameo because of Xiao Qian's matter, don't expect me to shine there or something!"
"Don't worry, Uncle Yang, I understand!" Tang Lin said with an OK gesture to Yang Xianlin.
"Remember, it should be as good as "The Masked Singer"!" Yang Xianlin finally admonished, leaving Tang Lin speechless for a while.
"Uncle Yang, I can only say that I do my best!" Tang Lin replied helplessly.
Although he has a lot of ideas, how do he know if he can find such a good show, so it's better not to be too full of some words.
Ten minutes later.
Still in this large conference room, Bai Ze and Ou Qian looked at Tang Lin who was smiling and groaning with puzzled faces, just let them go back, and after a while, they called them over again.
"Xiao Tang, is there anything you have to do when you call us over?" Bai Ze asked first steadily.
Tang Lin also smiled at this, and did not answer directly, but said: "Brother Bai, you see that I am also the CEO of a company, every time I go back to the company, I either rub your office, or directly treat the conference room as an office like now, you make me very sad, okay?"
Although Tang Lin's words were sad, in fact, his expression, including his tone, did not show the slightest sadness.
Bai Ze 'cut' and said: "You still wish you were like this! Every time I come back, I can't stay for a while and run away again, the company has been established for so long, and I haven't seen you seriously work in the company for a day, and it is a waste to leave you an office. ”
After Tang Lin heard this, he looked at Bai Ze's gaze very complicated, and then suddenly turned his head to Ou Qian and said, "Teacher Ou, I have to say that Brother Bai is a good man who must be a good man when he travels and stays at home!"
Ou Qian smacked for a moment, and then said: "Is he okay with me, hurry up and get down to business, although the show doesn't do as many things as before, it still needs me to watch." ”
I haven't seen her for half a year, Ou Qian's dedication is still so heavy, and she doesn't pay much attention to Tang Lin's ridicule of Bai Ze.
Tang Lin smiled, and Bai Ze also looked at Ou Qian helplessly, his eyes were extremely tender.
After a while, Tang Lin said: "Brother Bai, Teacher Ou, in fact, this is the case, just now I discussed the matter of shooting a movie with Uncle Yang......
"Are you really planning to make a movie?!" Bai Ze suddenly interrupted Tang Lin's words and asked.
Tang Lin nodded and replied, "Yes, I didn't say it to make fun of everyone!"
"You're amazing, Xiao Tang!" Bai Ze gave Tang Lin a thumbs up, "You kid hasn't seen you do a few things, so you'll just mess around everywhere, but you've just been tinkered with, it's just that the film industry is really hard to say, you have to think about it seriously!"
Tang Lin took a moment and said: "Don't worry, I decided after careful consideration, but because I don't have a lot of money now, if I invite some famous actors, it is really stretched, so I am still very entangled in this regard, after all, I don't know other stars, and I know Sister Xiaoying and them, and they are all singers, if you ask them to act, it is not only expensive, but also have no acting experience, so ......"
Ou Qian smiled very quietly at this time: "Xiao Tang, don't beat our idea, our connections in the entertainment industry are not much better than yours, most of the previous shows were music variety shows, and they are not very famous shows, it is better to find us directly than Director Yang!"
Tang Lin smiled, nodded and said, "I can naturally understand this, so I called you here not so that you can help me find an actor, but to ask you to be a free laborer." Uncle Yang and I thought about it for a while, and I think that Mr. Ou, your current beauty is enough to kill most beauties in seconds, and Brother Bai is also a handsome guy in our company, so I hope you can participate in my male and female number one, I don't know how you are?"
Ou Qian and Bai Ze glanced at each other in surprise, and asked Tang Lin in unison: "Are we?"
